REVIEW RESPONSES

brigitta1: Hurt and angst is definitely fun to read, and who knows maybe she will take advantage of the situation, read and find out!

briskbaby: It took a while but here's an update. I made it a lot longer…well because the chapter just wouldn't end.

Delauro: Yeah I'm not a huge fan of E/B but their cute in their own little way, I guess. Glad you like it and I agree Emma is the best character!

bren88: Thanks!

bigandcarrie: I thought that Shalimar and Adam might be a little unexpected but I think it's cute!

Chapter 6

Sarina watched him stumble over the stairs as they left the bar and couldn't help but grin. Although she knew it wasn't nice, she could tell he was drinking to escape some serious emotions.

"Where do you live? I'll call you a cab." Sarina said as she helped him to sit down on the hood of her custom made 2002 Chevrolet Camaro.

"Ugh urgh agh." was all she heard.

She sighed, "I'll get you a motel room." She said. She went to the pay phone and began searching her pockets for the slip of paper.

"Damn it." She whispered, suddenly she heard a thud and she looked up to see he had fallen off her car and was lying in a heap on the ground.

She stood there waiting to see if he's get up but he didn't, so she walked over and struggled to lift him dead weight up until he was sitting upright.

"Dumb ass." She said looking at him in pity.

Suddenly she remembered where she had left the slip of paper. She opened her car door and reached into the glove compartment and after riffling through papers pulled one out.

She hurried to the pay phone and began dialing.

(RRRIIINNGG) (RRRIIINNNGGG) "Pick up the damn phone!" she muttered watching the drunken man leaning against the front of her car.

(Female voice) "Hello?"

(Sarina) "I have to speak with Eckhart."

(Female voice) "I'm sorry, Mr. Eckhart is very busy. May I take a message?"

(Sarina) "Yeah you can run your happy little self into his office and tell him Sarina Morgan is calling for his dumb ass!"

(Female voice, stuttering like she's afraid) "Yes, miss. Right away."

(Eckhart) "Sarina did you do your job?"

(Sarina) "Yeah I did now call off your damn dogs!"

(Eckhart) "I'm afraid I cannot until you bring him to me."

(Sarina) "Fine but if you mess with me I swear you'll pay!"

Sarina gazed at the phone and sighed, she felt horrible about what she was about to do but it was the only way. She hung the phone up and turned to Jesse who had passed out again.

She dragged him to the passenger side door and struggled to put him inside. Something about his being drunk and asleep was causing his power to begin flickering and one minute he'd weigh about a million pounds and the next he'd slip right through her fingers.

So finally she opened the trunk and took out a giant sheet and wrapped it around him. The sheet supposedly kept his power in check but she didn't completely trust Eckhart, after about ten minutes he was finally completely inside.

She sighed and wiped her forehead. Then she climbed into the driver's seat and drove off. Hoping that Jesse wouldn't wake up before she had him where Eckhart wanted him.

"Okay so your saying that there is absolutely no way to find Jesse?" Emma demanded her face white and her voice harsh.

"Unless we can find his car, we're going to have a lot of trouble doing so." Adam answered looking through papers scattering the desk in front of him.

"Adam Jesse's car was spotted outside of a bar on the edge of town. Shal and I are going to check it out." Brennan said from the doorway.

"I'm going with you." Emma said quickly.

"I don't know if that's such a good idea." Brennan said uneasily.

"I'm going and that's all there is to it." Emma said her voice deathly calm. Brennan's eyes widened but he decided it was safer to shut up.

"Okay." He said finally. Emma pushed past him and he followed her out. A few minutes later they arrived at a dark and dingy bar that didn't even have a name.

A man was standing outside smoking a cigarette.

"Excuse me but were you here last night?" Brennan asked and Shalimar and Emma went to check out Jesse's car.

"Yeah I sure was. Why?" the man asked suddenly suspicious.

"We're looking for our friend. Have you seen him?" Brennan handed him a recent photograph of Jesse and waited as the man turned it over in his hand and then over again and continued gazing at the picture.

"Hey yeah, I saw this guy." He answered suddenly.

"When? Did you see where he went?" Brennan asked his eyes wide.

"This guy spent the night drinking and staring at Sarina. Then when he decided to leave she helped him out."

"Where did she take him?" Brennan asked half-wondering if Jesse was just having a good time.

"Well I assume she got him a hotel room. She's a good girl, ain't never done nothing wrong. She draws in a good crowd too." The man said watching the girls search Jesse's car.

"Thank you." Brennan said as he turned and walked over to the girl's.

"Guys I have a feeling Jesse's just having some alone time." He said unsure of how to tell them what he thought had happened.

Emma turned her eyes narrowing, "What do you mean?"

"Well see, the bar owner saw him leave with a girl named Sarina last night." Brennan answered looking away.

"That doesn't explain why all of his stuff is gone and him comlink was still there." Emma said haughtily.

"It does explain why his car is here with all of his belongings though." Shalimar said.

Brennan turned to her, "All of his stuff is in the car?" he asked.

"Yeah." Shalimar said with a slight nod.

"Em, maybe we should just go back to Sanctuary." Brennan said watching her closely.

"Whatever." Emma said. She followed them to the car and gazed out the window as they drove. Maybe she had been wrong maybe he hadn't loved her. Maybe he had left to be with this Sarina girl, but why wouldn't he say anything to them about it?

Of course she had never told them about Daniel. She shook her head and closed her eyes, she needed to think and she was having a lot of trouble doing so.
