Chapter 5

Thank you everyone for the great reviews they help me a lot to write this chapter.

The Helix flew through the air; they had already dropped off Sylvia at one of the undergrounds on the way. Adam was steering the Helix while Brennan sat impatient in the back holding Shalimar in his arms.

"Adam where are we going?" He was a little surprised when he stuck his head toward the window and saw snow everywhere especially because it was fall and there should be no snow in California.

"Where going to the only place where I know they can help Shalimar. Where near the arctic circle."

"Oh ok " As long as it was something to help Shalimar and not some other thing that was on Adams list of things to do. When he looked down again at her face he noticed how pale she had gotten since they left. Worried about her he took off his big black sweater and rapped her neatly in it. After a couple of minutes of straight staring at her beautiful face he finally fell into a relaxing sleep.

Brennan didn't sleep long before piercing sirens went off and the Helix began to slope down. He turned quickly to the window again and slowly he could see the wind slowing down over the wings and the distant rumble of the engine completely stopped. Adam turned around in his seat, looked at Brennan and Shalimar together then finally he looked into Brennan eyes. "We're going to crash" he gained strength and he added "put on your seat belt and hold on to something"

"What!!" Brennan yelled before the Helix hit the frozen snow. The whole machine rolled three times before it stopped up side down. Everything went quiet after that nothing moved and no one inside made a sound except for one person. Shalimar opened her eyes and with all the energy she could find in her she turn her head and looked at Brennan. He was still holding her with one of his arms. The other arm was twisted back wards from trying to hold on to the side of the Helix. She winced at the sight of his arm and at the big cut on the side of his head. Lifting her shaking hands to his shoulder she tried desperately to wake him up. When he didn't respond, the uncontrollable tears fell and she push harder on his shoulder.

"Wake up" she tried yelling but it only came out as a whisper. With no strength left to wake him she lowered her head to his chest and hugged him with her arms. She stayed like that for a moment freezing and then she felt it, his arms huge her back. She lifts her eyes up and she could see Brennan smiling at her. He leaned forward and left a warm kiss on her lips before he lifted her up and placed her on the chair. She could see he had a hard time doing that with his arm in such a bad stat. He walked over to where Adam was lying and he lifted the debris off him. Adam lay on the ground crushed by the movement of the crash. Brennan bent down to look if he was breathing. An arm came flying up from Adam and grabbed Brennan by the shirt.

"Go find help now.... at Raynham hall...go north" and then Adam was dead, no breath left in him. His hand dropped. Brennan stood up now staring at Adams destructed body he turned to Shalimar who was surprisingly awake but not in any way capable to go north to find some Raynham hall but he couldn't leave her here.

He stood trying hard to think of a plan when the lights of he helix died and the cold air from outside slid inside the plain. Realizing he was only wearing a T-shirt since he had given his sweater to Shalimar. He went to the back of the Helix and looked for two winter coats. It wasn't to long before he found to large winter coats. Adam was always prepared and that thought made him smile but he immediately stopped smiling when he remembered Adam was dead. He walked back to Shalimar who looked horrible. She was so pale that if he didn't see her eyes open and full of tears he probably would have thought she was dead.

Seeing that Brennan had a coat for her she tried to get up but her legs let go and she collapsed on the floor. The pain from the poison was so strong it felt like she was being torn apart from inside. Brennan still at shock from her falling quickly picked her up with a lot of difficulty and he put the winter jacket on her. He also put some gloves and a blanket around her legs. She was all set and so was Brennan he was wearing the huge coat and a black hat that fit tightly around his sore head.

The door of the Helix opened and out stepped Brennan with Shalimar in his arms. The wind blew very hard but they stayed steady. When Brennan walked a couple of steps he then noticed the debris from the Helix hurled in all directions. And they could see nothing in the distance but white snow.

"Oh my god" Shalimar said quietly under her breath. "We can make it" Brennan added just to lighted the mood a bit because they had a tough journey a head of them.
