I do not own Mutant X and never will so there.
I know that you know how this ends, but i wanted to repost it so that you could see the whole thing.
Chapter "I don't know is it seven? Eight?"
The team was ushered into an observation room well all but Jesse. They hadn't seen him since they were put in their room., which was two days ago. There rings were removed and were probably shipped somewhere to throw Adam off of where they were. (they had cut them on their fingers to make their blood be on the ring.
They see the door open in the other room on the other side of the glass. There is a chair in the middle of the room. The person that was first to enter was Jesse. Followed by Cat, then by Ashlocke. There were guards that followed them. Jesse was wrestled onto the chair and strapped down while cat was lead to a wall and was shackled there. The guards all left leaving Ashlocke with Cat and Jesse. They couldn't hear what was going on the other side of the window. But they could see perfectly well. Jesse didn't look that good he was paler and he had some bruises on his face, that hadn't been there before. They had no idea what had happened those last two days.
They watched as Ashlocke went to a switchboard and they saw Jesse close his eyes and had a look of pain his face.
Ashlocke then went to the wall that Cat was on and he started talking to her. She didn't look too happy about what he was saying. He then walked over to the machine again he started pushing the handle he had dropped. Jesse started to yell in pain. Cat started to struggle against the chains that held her.
Other Room
"STOP IT." Cat yelled
Ashlocke turned the machine off.
"Are you going to tell me?"
"Tell you what?'
"How you met Kilmartin? You couldn't of had a bond with him if you didn't know him."
"Who says I have a bon with him?"
"Well the burn I put on you before is in the same place on his arm as it is on your, and that is from two days ago." Ashlocke said
"Does that mean something? He could have gotten burnt on something else."
"Then why would this hurt?" Ashlocke said as he put the handle down more.
Jesse screamed out in pain. Catheren could feel it but se was trying her hardest to not let it show. Ashlocke put the handle back up.
"Guards." Ashlocke said
The guards came in the room, he told them to switch Cat and Jesse. They did, and then left. Ashlocke turned on the juice. Cat shut her eyes in pain. She was more pain now because she was trying to take Jesse's, he was getting some but not as much as if he was getting shock, which is what he should be feeling.
Ashlocke turned the machine off. "Well I guess I was wrong.'" He said.
Catheren lost her concentration and Ashlocke knew that. he turned the machine on full blast and Jesse cried out in pain.
"STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Cat cried.
Ashlocke was amazed, it was on the highest and she must have been taking some of Kilmartin's since he wasn't screaming anymore. The machine blew u. Sparks were flying everywhere; the sprinkler system was on now. Everything was getting wet. Cat phased and walked up to the wall that Jesse was strapped to. She phased him through the restraints, and the governor. She helped him to the mirror wall and phased him through the wall, right into Brennan who caught him, since his hands weren't tied.
"Hey are you alright?" Brennan asked Jesse.
"Yeah, I'll be fine." Jesse replied hoarsely. He phased the chains on the girls and the governors on all of them.
Cat had turned away from them she was now looking at Ashlocke.
Jesse turned away from his friends towards the window. He was a bit shaky so she used the ledge for support. He didn't say anything he just looked. Nothing was happening but a stare off. But Jesse knew what was coming.
"DON'T DO IT." Jesse said
in the other room
She had heard what Jesse had said, but she had to do this it was the only way.
Other room
Everybody watched as the water in the room started to spin around it. They couldn't see Catheren's face. They wouldn't have wanted to. But they say Ashlocke's face. It was the look of terror. He was frightened for his life. He headed for the door and tried to open it. But he couldn't. Cat moved her hand and Ashlocke was picked up. They heard a voice but it sounded 'possessed.' Jesse fell to his knees, his head still able to see over the sill. Shalimar moved to try to help him up, but he didn't want the help.
"You have screwed with me to much Ashlocke." The possessed voice said
Just then they saw Eckhart come through the wall. He was confused and didn't know what was going on. He saw Ashlocke in the air he struggled to get away. He didn't make it. She threw Eckhart into the wall with the chains and locked him in, using her mind. She then turned her attention to Ashlocke.
None of them cold see her eyes not yet anyways. Emma could feel all of the hatred that was coming from her. When Eckhart had come in it became stronger. She hated him so much. She could also feel hatred in the room she was in, she figured it was going out of Jesse.
"How...how did I screw you." Ashlocke asked nervously on the air.
"You took me hostage, you put me through hell, Hell you beat me and you made me face a fear of mine. You tortured him. Now how did you screw Me." the possessed voice said
Ashlocke was thrown to the table. He was then strapped down. He couldn't move, they watched as he struggled to move. The switch went up and they heard him scream in pain. She turned it off. Then went up to him.
"You want to remember the pain of having your body tearing apart?" Cat asked
"No, I remember." Ashlocke said with fear in his voice.
"Well to bad. You will. I feel it everyday. It will tear you apart until your dead. You're too weak to fight me off. You should know that by now. I created you I can kill you."
With that said Cat pulled a vile out of her pocket.
"What...What's that?"
"I am surprised you don't recognize it, it was what Adam used to kill you last time."
She took a syringe and filled it. She then injected Ashlocke in the neck with it.
"Have fun. You shouldn't be alcove and this time you wont come back." Cat said as she turned away from Ashlocke and looked at Eckhart. They saw a part of her eyes it was all dark. But they thought that is was just from the shadows.
"And as for you..." Cat said to Eckhart "...You screwed me more. You want a killer you have one now."
"Now how did I do that?" Eckhart said
"You killed my mother so you could have me. You tricked my father into letting you experiment on me. You made him scared of me. You wont serve what you created. Do you want to know why your beatings didn't work, because I was beaten by my father everyday of my childhood, up to the day you guys took me away from it. You took little kids from their parents. You then injected not medicine but different DNA your own mixture. Well that has to stop. You aren't taking any more children away from their parents.
Everything started to fall off of the shelves. Ashlocke had exploded again and Cat didn't even flinch. She was going after Eckhart with all of the hatred that she had.
Jesse couldn't take it.
"Enough!!!!!!!!!!!" Jesse cried before phasing through the wall.
For the first time they saw Cat's eyes. They were empty black there was no white or any other color for that matter.
"Get out Jesse." Cat said.
"I wont. You cannot kill him." Jesse said
"Why cannot I?"
"It will be harder for him to make up this place and a new life it you allow him to live."
"He killed innocent children, and parents. He doesn't deserve to live."
"Do you remember when you were a sophomore?"
"Yes."
"You had to do a debate in speaking, writing, and research. Do you remember the topic."
"Yes, it was Capital Punishment."
"You would be using capital punishment. Don't you remember how you felt about it?"
"I was against it. I still am."
The commotion around them started to die down. Cat's anger was lowering.
"You would be killing him because he killed someone else."
"Who said I was going to kill him. I was just going to make him sweat, and hurt him some."
"That is still wrong, Cat."
"I know. I am sorry. I cannot control my anger when I get like this. Thanks Jess."
"No problem."
The color of Cat's eyes came back. And then they heard a gunshot. Cat shut her eyes, and fell to the floor. Jesse got to her just before she hit. He looked up and saw a man in a as suit, standing there with a gun now aimed at him.
"Get away from the girl, Mr. Kilmartin."
"Why should I?"
"I am not afraid to kill you."
"Why did you do that?"
"I have a right to."
"Yeah, just like I have a right to beat you?"
"No, she's my daughter. My freak for a daughter."
Jesse looked at him surprised. He looked different than before.
"I know you haven't seen me for about 10 to 15 years, but I have watched you. You never really met me. Sorry about that, but I was afraid that someone would find out that I have a freak for a daughter.
Catheren still didn't move. Emma could feel the anger in that room rising, all from Jesse. I was even more anger then when she had called him a freak.
Jesse had his hand on Catheren's back, which is where the bullet went through. He felt like it was in his back too. He ignored it. He needed to help Cat right now.
"She'd not the freak in your family." Jesse said
"Yes she is. She has all of the powers you could think of. I had to teach her a lesson. I knew that someone knew what was going on in the basement, just because the marks on her back were being taken care of. I never thought it was you though, she never mentioned you were that close a friend."
Jesse's anger was rising more. It was hard for him to just sit there and listen to this. His best friend was lying on the ground bleeding to death. Jesse's anger got the better of him, he got up from the ground and flung himself at Catheren's dad. The gun went off. Jesse didn't care, yeah, it hurt but he had to do this.
Catheren started to come to. She was on the ground pain flowing through her body. She tasted blood in her mouth. She opened her eyes at the sound of a gun going off. She saw Jesse stagger back but then forward towards whoever he was attacking. She caught a glimpse of the man Jesse was fighting. She recognized that face, it was the face of her father.
Jesse had gotten shot twice, twice in the same place in the arm. He was lucky that was where they hit. He heard something behind him. He wasn't sure what it was. Catheren's dad became wide-eyed. What was he thinking of or seeing. Jesse thought. He then felt something on his shoulder. A hand.
"Jesse stop." It was Catheren faint but there.
Jesse stopped his struggle getting to be hit. But it never came. He opened his eyes to find Catheren's father suspended or frozen in time. His hand inches from Jesse's face.
"Why do you want me to stop?" Jesse asked
"He deserves to suffer, through what he has done to himself." Cat said
Shalimar, Brennan, and Emma came into the room.
"What took you so long?" Jesse asked in a joking tone. He anger lost in an instant.
"Well we couldn't move for one thing then when we finally could we couldn't find the door." Brennan said
"I have an idea." Cat said
"Yeah, what would that be?" Brennan asked
"How about we get out of here."
"Good idea." Emma said
"Wait what are we going to do with them." Jesse asked pointing to Eckhart and Catheren's dad.
They then disappeared.
"Where did they go?" Shal asked
"They are both in stasis pods at the moment. They will both be there for awhile." Cat said, "Let's go."
"Sure."
Jesse and Cat walked outside, side by side. Shalimar, Brennan, and Emma followed. They got to the Helix. With out more trouble and headed towards Sanctuary.
When they got there Adam was in the bay waiting for his team.
They all walked out together. Adam hadn't seen Catheren since she was a teen.
"Hello, Adam.' Cat said
"Hello, how are you, it's been awhile." Adam asked
"I'll be fine, but yeah, it has been awhile."
"I'm glad to see that you are okay."
"I'm going to bed." Jesse said
"Yeah, so am I." Shal said
Brennan and Emma also wanted to sleep.
"Catheren you can bunk with Shal." Adam said
"Sure, okay, don't ask me if she can." Shal said
"Do you kind Shal?" Adam asked
No, it was a joke. It's okay." Shal said with a smile in her voice.
They all went to bed. Shal showed Cat where everything was, the bathroom, the kitchen. Then she set up a bed for her.
Shal fell asleep easily. When she woke-up the next morning, She saw Cat was gone. She quickly got and looked for her. She looked in Jesse's room, but didn't find her, so she woke him up.
"yeah, what's wrong Shal?" Jesse asked
"Catheren is missing." Shal responded sounding very scared
"She'd probable couldn't sleep so she went to the kitchen. That's what she usually doe." Jesse said as he turned away from her and tried to fall back asleep.
Shalimar grabbed Jesse's arm and dragged him out of the bed. She made him walk to the kitchen, where they both saw Cat making something.
"Morning, Shal, Jesse."
"I told you she would be here." Jesse said Cat had a confused look on her face.
"I...I...thought you were missing." Shal said
"I woke-up you were stil sleeping so I was as quiet as I could be so I wouldn't wake you."
"Oh." Shal answered.
"Since your all you, do you want something to eat?" She asked
"Sure, what id you make?" Shal asked
"Anything and everything. I didn't know what any of you liked but Jesse." Cat said
"Do you have pancakes?" Shal asked
"Yes I do, how many do you want?"
"Three." Shal responded
Cat picked up a plate and put pancakes on it.
"Anything else?" She asked
"No not now." Shal said. Cat handed her the plate. Then handed Jesse one with French Toast, and Bacon. "You will like this?"
"Always have and always will." Jess said as she reached for the plate and dug in.
Emma, and Brennan walked in then.
They all got what they wanted and then they dispersed. Shal and Brennan went to spare, and Emma when to meditate, Adam when back to the lab.
Emma was the last to leave, once she is gone Jesse stands up in front of Catheren.
"I thought that they would never leave." Jesse said
"Why they are nice people?' Cat said with a smile on her face knowing what he meant.
"Because I haven't seen you for how many years now?"
"Five or six."
"Giving me five or six years to think of how I missed you."
"Oh, so this is where this is going." Cat said
"Let's go to my room." Jesse said
The started walking out of the kitchen
"Wait a minute." Cat said
"What?" Jesse asked
Cat stands in front of Jesse looks past him at the kitchen then looks back at him. "Let's go."
"What did you do?"
"I cleaned."
Jesse looked behind him and sees the kitchen is spotless.
"I love a girl who can clean quickly."
"Well, what are we going to do now?"
"We're going to play a little game.
"What game is that?"
"I'll tell you in my room." Jesse said before he leans in and kissed Catheren on his way to his room. They kissed all the way to the room, shutting the door with out stopping.
Dojo
"Where's Jess and Cat?' Brennan asked
"In Jesse's room." Emma said
"Cool." Brennan said and heads away
"Where are you going?" Shal asked
"I am going to ask them if they want to spare with us."
"Brennan, they haven't seen each other for like five or six years." Emma said
"So." Brennan said
"They have some catching up to do, let them catch up, okay." Emma said
"Fine, your right." Brennan said thinking about what was going on.
Jesse's room
"So what game are we going to play?" Cat asked from the bed where Jesse had left her.
"the game we played when we were younger. WAR." Jesse said as he pulled some cards out of his desk.
Jesse dealt out the card and they played was and talked. They both ended up falling asleep in the middle of the game.
THE END
Well this is the last of this, and i wont be writting anymore Mutant X fanfiction at least for a while. I have been busy writing my own little story, that i completely made up, it is better than this story or at least i think it is. I hate it when you can think of a story at least the beginning and you want to write it out, but you don't know how to get it to that point. Though the stories i write just come to me as i write them after i get the beginning, anyways i now must go and finish writing my tragedy. though it is one, but at least it has some happy in it right? Oh, well it's not like anybody reads this or is going to, I just wanted to rant and since i hate leaving stories undone, except for the one i wrote in seventh grade, that i haven't even picked up for about 5 years now, i decided to finish writing this, even if nobody is reading it.
Have a great life to anybody who reads this, i know it will be better than mine is.
Honestly you don't have to read this, since it is just me ranting about my crappy life.
I decided to rant again since i am depressed and want to get my feelings out, I cannot tell that guy from England, since i have only just talked to him and haven't really gotten to know him. I cannot tell my friends becuase they will think i need help, and try to help me. I have no one to tell but myself, and the people who read this. Honestly no one knows of half the crap i think out. I wrote one story which you wont be seeing unless i feel like asking to make a new catagory, Black Sash, which I bet nobody even rememebers, but i ended it horribly, though i wont tell you how, since i cannot, not that i don't remember, but incase i do ask for it, though i doubt that anybody is going to read it but, oh, well. I have though of doing horrible things to myself, though i haven't gone through with them, mostly because I don't want others to know that I cam suicidal, and have though about it. Though i don't think i will ever do it because then i wouldn't want my fake friends to think it was thier fault since i have told them some of how i feel. Hell, they don't even know that i have though about it, and am just pretending to be happy, in front of them. I know how to act so they don't think something is wrong. Though i don't want people to tell me that i have a life to live and it will be better, i know it could, but i really don't care any more. Though i should erase this I am not going to, because I just don't care anymore. Let people find out, let them try to help, it wont help, even if the are trying to be nice, I know it will be because they don't want me to do something stupid, but you know what I don't plan on doing anything stupid until I completely lose my hope. My writing makes me feel better, I can express myself and no one will know that it is the way i truly feel. Well Don't worry I wont do anything, to myself, now, or in the near future, I just wanted to make myself feel a little better, and now i do. If you read this then thanks. Even if you didn't thanks anyways. Though you wont read it so you wont see that I said thanks. Well if you want message me, they always make me feel better, even if they say it sucks, it just makes me feel better when people actually respond. It makes you feel special that people would want to read this and take the time to read it. Since I cannot just pop up a list to see how many times it was viewed, though i would love to do that, you can stop reading anytime now, since now i am rambling about random things, though i don't think anybody would read this. I shall say my favorite Quote and then end it there, since my hand hurts from typing this, "People in Glass houses...S-S-Sink Ships" Boondock Saints. It is the best movie in the world, but let me tell you it is rated R for a reason, lots of swears and gore. Well if you are still reading then you should really check out it is an awsome site, I don't know who the person is who made it, but it has tons of quizzes on it about random things, but be careful some of the people get fresh and nastsy if you look at some of the names of the Quizzes. I know now it has been over 5 minutes but i had to rant. They say don't bottle up your feelings, so i had to rant, and since this is my story I decided to rant to it. well i am really going to stop now, because my hand is really hurting me now. Bye.
