Different Powers 13

Plan's of attacks and rescues.

Adam's little story

"I first met Sifer at genome…he was snooping around for a job. He attracted trouble to every one with his mouth and how much better he thought he was than every one else…but he made a mistake of crossing Eckhart. Eckhart sent some men after him a few years ago…made Sifer go into hiding. When I saw the reports on Chloe's wall, I recognised him and all the answers fell into place. He'd disappeared and Eckhart seemed to act like he had no worries. Now I know that Sifer…and a few friends of his, were all taken out by the meteor. 'Adam laughed lightly'. Eckhart was saved a great deal of trouble…only now, he doesn't know Sifer is still alive…and looking for revenge. I know I'm on his hit list because we both naturally didn't get along, but he would most likely draw Eckhart in. But the worst part maybe out of all this is...Sifer has some friends with him this time".

Luther Corp

Lionel Sat down comfortably in front of Eckhart, who had literally run to Luther corp., the second he heard of Lionel find.
"So you have Adam here…in this very town". Lionel nodded, his smile instantly showing at Eckhart's rise in interest. "Yes. He's staying at a hotel in the town…run by a girl called Lana-" As soon as Lionel gave the information, Eckhart got out of his seat and started towards the door.

"-Thank you Lionel, I shall give you brief updates on the situation once it is under control".

Lionel sat forwards, his smile long faded. But soon had thought about the people with Adam came back. "He's travelling with some people…" At those words, Eckhart froze. Slowly he turned back around to Lionel, who he really didn't like, but would stand under such conditions. "Go on Lionel".

Lionel's smile reappeared. He sat back once more, "They are very suspicious…they are all trouble around here. They're a group of people, running around with Clark Kent…I believe he has certain…powers I'm interested in".
Eckhart eyed up Lionel, trying to question him not just with his stone cold stare, but also with the silence. "...What do you want me to do Lionel?"

Lionel smiled and shrugged lightly, " well, I merely want your help. As the old saying goes...you scratch my back,...I'll scratch yours". Eckhart got his drift. If he helped him get this Kent boy...then Lionel would help him get Adam.

Finally the silence broke and one side gave in. "Alright Lionel, if that's the way it's got to be, so be it. What's first?"

Lionel nodded, leaning towards Eckhart to withered back away from him, determined not to get any germs of his comrade. Lionel didn't seem to notice, since the gleam in his eyes, grew brighter every second.

" First, I want you to retrieve my son. He's getting far to close to them. Get him out and then we go after Kent...then Adam". Eckhart sighed, "alright...but the help goes both ways Lionel. If our men are going to work together, I don't want any deaths...understand". Lionel eyes fazed slightly for a second, but he nodded, " extremely. Now, tonight at 10 when my sons in, your men will get my son, then tomorrow we shall go after Kent and Adam".

Eckhart matched Lionel grin as he too saw the light at the end of all the trouble they were both getting into.

Outside Town

Sifer entered the place he, and his team had been sharing since the day they realised Adam and his team were staying in Smallville. He walked with a strong stride, determined and confident of where he was going. When the others came into view, his eyes fell on Derek who seemed slightly on edge by the way he stood wearily as he walked in.

Nina came towards him, and stood by his side. He enjoyed that feeling, and also enjoyed how they all still stood with him through it all. But he never got to close. He knew in a heart beat he would kill all of them...just to get back at Adam and Eckhart... especially Eckhart".

Eddy was sitting on a box that seemed to only be there for him. "Why did you go Sifer? You could have jeopardised the mission".

Sifer's sinister smirk came back and he directed his dreadful eyes straight at eddy. He shook his head in confidence, "the mission is not jeopardised. In fact...I've just brought another of our opponents into the game. It will save us a great deal of time to also take out Eckhart". Every one turned all attention to him and he marvelled in the attention and willingness to listen...it just made them that much lower than him. They were all willing to listen to him...rather than their own reasonable minds. The feeling of power came back and he made it last.

"I gave Luther a warning...and he fell into my trap. He's entered Eckhart into out little fight". Willow and Derek both smirked at the same time and he saw the thrill of a fight sparkle in their eyes, and he nodded to them. "Yes...that means more fun for you two. They are planning to go after some one tonight...but I highly doubt they are any of our concern. But tomorrow is when they move for Adam and his people". He laughed and Nina stepped a bit towards him, "...not that I don't enjoy this, but how do you know all this. Be side's, we'll be in a race now to both take out Adam".

Sifer shook his head, standing strong like a leader should and once again, the black hate curled in his stomach, in response to how great Adam thinks he is. He didn't deserve the Mutants on his team...but yet HE has them. But he got back to topic, "I planted a device in Lionel office, so it'll be a while till he finds it. We won't race if we take out new threat on by surprise".

Derek and willow stepped forwards. Them two had been closer lately, and Sifer was starting to find it annoying in some way. Derek spoke first, "But if we do that then we have to face off three attackers". Willow then spoke, "And we'll also expose our selves and our powers to Adam and all our other threats. You know Sifer...that plan sounds far to risky". Sifer's eyes swung towards her, making her freeze where she was. He walked dangerously slow towards her, "But my plan will work. Be side's Willow...I didn't hear you have any suggestions".

Derek moved towards Sifer and Willow, but stopped when Sifer turned a curious eye towards him. "Sifer...all she's saying is that things can go wrong". Sifer looked back to Willow and smirked dreadfully again. Nina and Eddy were froze in the scene.

" Well nothing will go wrong if we ALL have faith. So lets stick together and get prepared for tomorrow".

Before Sifer could leave, Derek piped up again. "What about the tonight, you said they were moving in on some one..." Sifer turned back to Derek, Anger now flaring slowly in his eyes, "well he is not our trouble is he...is there any thing else". Every one shook their heads and Sifer nodded firmly. "Well then I suggest you all get rest for tomorrow".

As soon as they all heard the door close hard behind him, they relaxed a bit more. Sifer was getting more out of hand with his temper.

Hotel

When Adam was done, every one was silent. Adam seemed slightly distressed about the situation, but didn't know what to do with him self. Shalimar looked towards Brennan who was completely quiet. She saw how his eyes were unfocused, and worry built up again. She remembered what Brennan had told her, about how he controlled the visions.

He tried to not to get too worried about things, or when he was tired...well he looked both right at that moment. She wanted to grab him by his arms and shake him to wake him up, but she knew if she suddenly moved it would attract attention. Every one was completely still, and her eyes seemed to grow more intense as Brennan seemed to go paler and then his breath caught. None of the others noticed, but she used to be feral, and still she looked out for things like a feral would. An urge to brake Brennan of his trance was starting to grow wildly and she immediately started to struggle against it to control it.

After another 10 seconds of silence Adam stood up, and sighed, "We all best be getting to bed. It's nearly ten and you all need rest".

Shalimar's eyes went quickly from Adam to Brennan. She was desperate, and when Adam started to walk, she took her chance to stand and started towards Brennan. Before her hand could touch his shoulder, or Adam could leave. Brennan's voice spoke loud, "Adam..."

Shalimar eased back but stayed close still. Every one turned towards Brennan, who'd suddenly spoke. He turned and looked at directly at Adam. Adam felt a shiver strike as Brennan looked at him. Some thing in his eyes had changed, like new information had came. Like some thing had finally clicked.

"Lex is in trouble...his house is being raided tonight at ten".

Adam was about to ask how he knew this, but stopped him self. "Never mind, I already know how you know. Jess, can you get the car, everyone else get ready to leave within the next few minutes".

Every one nodded and Adam left.

Brennan felt slightly like thanking his leader. There was no argument, no challenging his words...just trust in them. He suddenly found him self-feeling better, less stressed. Shalimar gripped his shoulder as he stood up and he smiled genuine at her. She returned the smile, not really knowing why Brennan was so happy. They all got ready in 3 minutes flat and ran to the car to get in. it was 20 to ten, and the car would make it to lex's in 5 minutes. That meant they had 15 minutes to get Lex and hope he not ask for an explanation, while also trying not to get caught or tailed when they get away.

Brennan had to direct Jesse to lex's house, and they pulled up. It was a mansion, and Jesse laughed slightly. "Well I did and didn't expect this. So how do we know he's in? While not attracting anyone else's attention".

Before Jesse could continue, everyone looked at him. "...What...guys... what?"

Adam nodded to Shalimar, " Jesse can teleport inside and have a look around. Not to mention get Lex out easily. The only problem is Lex will see it all". Shalimar shrugged, "Not if some one knocks him out". But she wasn't talking about her self. She looked at Emma who instantly looked shocked, "me?" every one nodded and finally she agreed.

Jesse grabbed Emma's hand and smiled sweetly at her. She smiled back, "I just hope we don't drop out of no where, in front of him". Jesse shook his head, "No...just a few rooms away". In a puff they disappeared, and were suddenly surrounded by wooden walls. Jesse let Emma go and started to walk through the house.

Out side

Shalimar had brought her bike, telling Adam there was no more room so she's have her bike. He was neglecting the idea, but didn't have room to disagree. So there she sat, perched on the edge of her bike, waiting for the others to reappear with Lex.

Brennan was looking nervous again, but also looked in control of him self. She smiled to her self, hoping he would remain that way, and not be subjected to another back braking vision. She'd saw plenty of Procog's that Adam had put into the under ground, she saw how they were haunted by their gifts...and she really wished that would not happen to Brennan.

Brennan sensed eyes on him and felt the feral in him, make his sense's surpass their natural boundaries, to target the source. Seconds later, he found the target, and her scent came also. He tried not to breath it in deeply, but it happened naturally. He tried to shake his mind of her, but now every thing was pulling his towards her. He looked over to where she was standing and she looked right back.

When they both realised the other had saw them looking, they quickly looked away. Shalimar felt her cheeks start to grow red as a thought crossed her mind...the sought that strayed some times.

Brennan also felt his face grow red and he tried to hide his face as Adam came towards him. Their leader was looking directly at him, "what's wrong with your face?"

Shalimar heard this and started to giggle to her self. Brennan couldn't answer in properly due to hearing Shalimar's laugh.

"What...Ur...what...my face...nothing. Its just cold". Adam looked suspiciously at him, but took the answer, he'd question him later. He looked over to Shal, who was laughing, but stopped when Adam looked towards her. Adam suddenly felt he was intruding on some thing, and knowing what it was, smiled to him self.

Inside

Jesse and Emma both snuck round till finally, they found Lex, sitting at his desk in his office, going over some papers. He went to his computer, and dropped the papers next to it before going to the couch and sitting down.

Emma stopped Jesse from running in and looked for an object to knock Lex lightly out with. She found a thick ish book, and prayed she did no extreme damage. She concentrated and levitated the book. Lex was un-known to what was happening, and gave a confused look when the book smacked him atop the head. He fell off the couch, and landed unconscious on the floor.
Jesse looked back at Emma and smiled at her, "Gee Em, a bit lethal weren't it". Emma already felt bad, "Shut up Jess, we need to get him before it's ten". Jesse quietly picked Lex up over his shoulder, grabbed Emma's hand and teleported out of the house. When they arrived out side, Brennan helped get Lex in the car. Adam nodded to Shalimar and she started her bike, while every one got in the car.

They all drove away, just as they all heard the house front door being kicked in. Adam was in the passenger seat, while Jesse drove. He looked back at Brennan and nodded to him. Brennan seemed slightly happy, with a challenging smile on his face that he only got when going up against the GSA.

Before Shalimar got any further away, she froze some men who were coming out the house. Brennan looked out the window just in time as they passed the men, to see one of the nametags. When they got to a safe distance away, with Shalimar right behind them, Brennan started to talk.

"Adam..." Adam turned around to him. "Yes Brennan". Brennan looked at him with worry in his eyes, "I just read one of those guys name tags". Adam shrugged, not really getting the drift. Jesse laughed to him self in the front, "What did it say".

But what Brennan said next, make every one-stop laughing, as they drew nearer to the hotel.

"It said, Carl Devin...GSA". The name of the man wasn't important...but the company in which he worked under...was.

Ok guys, another will be along shortly, but a reply wouldn't hurt. By the way, thank you to all those who gave replies. in fact, one gave me the idea for this chapter.
