Spiritwalker
A/N-Here I am again, walking into a universe that I don't own. Marvel owns these guys. I'm just playing.
Couple of notes here-One, Loads of Angst to come, here's the setup, the pitch is in the next chapter-and yes, I posted them both.
Second-I might offend some religious sensibilities. Sorry. Not my intention.
Third-Please Review. I must admit this is a plot bunny that I am beginning to like.
Fourth-Thank you for the spelling correction on Eckhart. I hate that guy...
Here's the Next Chapter-
Banishment
Jesse ran his fingers through his hair and turned to the computer. Shalimar's eyes followed him. His body language read hurt. Brennan, who had slumped to the floor, stared at his hands and the image trapped in the force field.
"Kari, how can this be?" he asked again.
Kari didn't hear him, she was too busy listening to the figure. Her head turned and she looked at Brennan.
"Sorry, he rants far too much, but he was answering your question. You know that every living thing on this planet has an electrical charge, yes?"
Brennan nodded. Electricity he knew.
"When someone dies, that charge dissipates," Kari continued, sounding chapter and verse, "The energy has to go somewhere. Some folks believe it goes to heaven, some folks believe it fades away, some folks believe it goes on and on to rediscover another truth. This time, this energy wound up stuck in limbo. You have to remember Mason knows his science and biochemistry. The amount of energy that Jesse produces when he phases and masses caused him to act as a magnet when Eckhart died."
Back at the computer, Jesse read the computer file. As Kari spoke, her voice carried to him, and he could understand the science behind her statements, but strangely, her voice sounded just like Emma. He tried to concentrate on the words in front of him, but, the instructions in the file were clear. He had to set up a program that could take the energy of the force field and dissipate it again. By sending all that energy to the four corners of the world, he would send Eckhart from this plane to the next. He typed for several moments and pulled the program together.
"Brennan," Jesse said, trying to focus on his friend, his head still hurt badly.
Brennan had followed Kari's explanation and stared up at Jesse.
"Trust me when I ask you to do this," his eyes met Brennan's, "Charge that field with everything you have on my mark."
"You set it up?" Kari interrupted, "He knows what you're trying, and he keeps laughing about how it won't work."
"I trust what she said," Jesse continued, "Brennan, MARK!" The elemental hit the field with a large series of electrical bursts. Lexa, sensing the need to help him, hit the field as well.
Mason's slight smile faded as the energy grew in the field and shorted out the entire computer system. His face contorted in pain and the lights failed under the extreme power surge.
The resulting explosion was minor, sending the team backward from their spots. The emergency generator kicked in bringing lights back to the medical lab. Jesse slowly stood from where he had ducked.
Brennan was against a wall, his eyes reflecting the disbelief of the scene. Eckhart's ghost was gone, the lab needed some repair, and Brennan needed some sleep.
"Brennan, you okay bro?" he asked, slowly walking to join his friends.
"Yep," he replied looking at Kari.
Kari was stone still again. She looked around the lab, closed her eyes then opened them again. Shalimar walked over to her and helped her up from the floor. Kari took her hand, bounced up, and smiled.
"I hate to sound like a movie, but this house is clean," she laughed, "How are you guys?"
