Please carry on reviewing, it encourages me to write, I'll post again soon
As they entered the club Jesse smiled as he saw several men staring at Lexa. He placed his arm further round her waist to tell everyone that they were together. At this action the men turned back round to what they were doing. They moved through the crowd and found a place to sit.
"I'll go get the drinks" Jesse said taking orders from the other three. As he left Shalimar and Brennan took off to the dance floor and started dancing closely to the loud music that was playing. Lexa liked it here because the music was always fresh and different. The drink was cheap too. She watched as Jesse brought over the drinks, losing sight of him every now and again as the crowd got in the way. Eventually he arrived and sat himself down next to Lexa, passing over her drink.
"I can see why you like it here!" Jesse shouted over the music. Lexa moved closer to Jesse so she could speak into his ear.
"Looks like Shal and Brennan like it too" Jesse looked over where Lexa was looking to see the couple dancing.
They had spent an hour there already. Shalimar and Brennan had spent most of that time on the dance floor whilst Lexa and Jesse had stayed at the table talking. As they were talking Jesse's mobile went off. Answering it he stuck his finger in his other ear to he could hear better.
"Hello?" Lexa watched him speak "You're gonna have to speak up…….. Where are you?......... Okay just hang on okay we'll be there as soon as we can" Lexa knew it was someone asking for help. Jesse closed his phone and looked back up at Lexa
"What is it?" She asked
"A new mutant I know is in trouble, we got to go. You go get Shal and Brennan and I'll bring the car around" Lexa left quickly and all Jesse had time to do was grab his jacket and leave.
"What's his name?" Lexa asked as the neared their destination.
"Luke Vaughn, he's a molecular like me. He said a couple of guys came to his apartment, he managed to get a call to me but I think he was captured.
"Don't worry, we'll get there in time" As Shal spoke they drove up to the entrance of the apartment. Jumping out of the car the four rushed inside and up two flights of stairs. Jesse led them through a corridor and up to a door at the end. The door was ajar. Slowly opening the door Jesse surveyed his surroundings to make sure there wasn't anybody about to jump on him. The four made there way into the living room, there were signs of a struggle but no Luke. They all split up to take separate rooms, Shal and Brennan took the kitchen, Lexa tried the study and Jesse went to the bedroom. In the kitchen they found the stove still on and a hungry cat but no mutant. The study was also empty. The three followed Jesse into the bedroom. They found him sitting on the bed with his hands covering his face. On the floor was the body of his friend, obviously dead.
"I'm sorry" Lexa said softly, sitting next to Jesse. There was a long silence as no-on knew what to say. The silence was broken when Jesse spoke, his voice rough and quiet.
"I'm going to find who did this to him"
"We'll help you man" Brennan told Jesse.
"I uh… I'm going to have to do an autopsy" Jesse looked at the body. Even though he didn't want to, he knew he had to if he was going to find the people that killed his friend.
