Chapter 8
"I still don't think this is the best plan." Emma said looking around the wasteland cautiously.
"Yeah well so far it's the only plan." Brennan said walking slightly infront.
"Someone's here." Shalimar said pausing in her tracks. Looking around she closed her eyes and let her feral abilities guide her, "Over there." She said pointing to one of many warehouses that were about.
"Lets check it out then." Jesse said walking towards it. Everyone followed except Emma .
Feeling the loss of Emma by her side Shalimar turned around to see Emma staring blankly at the warehouse.
"I've got a bad feeling about this Shal." Emma said once the feral was by her side.
"Em, I promise you everything is going to go fine. We'll just check out the warehouse and if something does happen we have Brennan and Jesse. Come on we need you." Shalimar said taking Emma's hand.
"Ok" Emma said gripping Shalimar's hand tighter and following her to catch up with the guys.
Pushing the warehouse door open slowly Shalimar saw the all to familiar figures of several men dressed in complete black combat gear.
Hearing the door open the men turned and charged at the four intruders.
Almost immediately Shalimar fought back a rain of blows aimed at her face and midsection. Missing one, the breath was was completely knocked out of her, but she had no time for pain. Pushing away from the wall she spun in the air with a roundhouse kick that caught two of the men across the throat. Quickly glancing around she could see that they were well out numbered.
Brennan was trying to fend off three of them. Coils of electricitly were flying through the air but hardly causing any damage. Getting irritated he fought hand to hand with two of them not noticing the third one coming behind him and hitting himhard across the back of the neck.
Jesse was massing and phasing trying to avoid the punches and kicks that were coming to him. Massing, he smiled to himself when one tried to headbutt him and knocked himself out. Running out of breath he unmassed and was caught of guard. He took several blows to his face and abdomen making him fall to the fall dizzy.
Shalimar was still fighting at her best. She had managed to knock out two, but was still fighting back another two. Infront of her she could see Emma sending psi-blasts to several of the men, stunning them momenterily. Refocusing on the men infront of her, she was distracted by a deafening scream. Glancing up she saw Emma lying on the ground motionless.
Forgeting the men she was currently fighting Shalimar pushed past and tried to run to her lovers side but was suddenly flung back into the air by an unseen force, crashing hard into some crates.
Jumping straight back up she tried to run to Emma's side once again but was stopped by a powerful forcefield that seperated her, Bren and Jess from everyone one else. Punching and kicking the forcefield to no avail, she screamed Emma's name. All the men turned to her and laughed, picking Emma up and dragging her out of the warehouse.
