SpiritWalker
AN- Yet another story by Amber Cloud. The following is a Mutant X story. I don't own these characters, but Kari Spiritwalker is my own creation. Don't sue me, you won't get any money from me.
Those who have reviewed, I humbly thank you. I continue onward, lest the plot bunnies eat my brain.

"Okay, what is her history?" Lexa asked as Jesse sat at the table in their shared kitchen.
Jesse pulled out a disc and loaded it into the holoprojector that sat on the table. Kari's picture and dossier pulled up.
"Well, to start with, her full story wasn't on the main database. She's a mystery, but one I don't think we have to worry about," Jesse started, "She's part Japanese and Creek Indian. From what I found in Adam's files, she came into Genomax when he was still there looking for relief from the noises. I gave her that on the med bed, with a cross from Emma's old headache cureall and a powerful sedative."
"That explains her reactions to the noises," Lexa interjected, "Shalimar told me that she's a medium?"
"That's the term she uses. She's also a very powerful psionic, mostly uncontrolled from what I have read. She could pull power from elementals, she's that close to the elements. That's why she wouldn't touch you. She didn't want to hurt you."
"I'm glad for that," Lexa responded, her look a little frightened, "How did we not know about her?"
"That's what I have been trying to find out," Jesse continued, "She's a mystery. Adam trusted her to run the San Francisco safe house, so I put some faith behind him. You never heard of her in the Dominion."
"No."
"A further search then," Jesse sighed, "I just wish Adam had put more together on her."
The wear was beginning to show. He was good at helping Adam in the past, but the only person who knew psionics better than Adam was Emma, and Emma was gone. He began to realize how much he missed her.
"I'll check my contacts in the Dominion, Jesse, if that will help," Lexa suggested, "Check back with you in an hour?"
Jesse nodded and closed his eyes. The image of Emma seemed frozen behind his eyelids. She looked at him, motioned to the computer, and pointed to a file.
"Jess?" Lexa asked again, touching Jesse's face.
Jesse woke with a start.
"When's the last time you slept?" she asked, her tone going from friend into mother.
"Two days ago, you?" Jesse yawned, "I know, I know, but I need to figure this out before I sleep, Lexa. Get Brennan to help you, and I'll see what I can do."
Lexa nodded and left the room. Jesse slowly got up and felt faint. He closed his eyes and had another flash of Emma. He stood up again slowly. He headed for the med lab and to figure out just what was causing this image.
