AN: Ideas, meanings and everything else is more than wanted…

Oh, I have a question. Do you think it should end good or bad? Good means that Emma and Shal get together and bad means that they don't. I really need to know because right now I could go both directions and I'm not sure what I want so I was hoping I could hear what you want…Please…

Shalimar turned to Brennan, her eyes flashing yellow.

"How could you do that?"

"Shal, I think it's about time that you understand this isn't real and you'll probably thank me when this is all over." Brennan tried to lay his hand on her arm, but she pulled away.

"Emma have already told me several times that this isn't real, but it feels real enough to me and you can't seriously expect me to thank you for ruining the best chance I had with her. You just have to face the fact that it's not all about you."

She tried to walk after Emma, but Brennan moved in front of her.

"And I think you need to realize that this isn't all about you either."

"Get out of my way." She pushed him aside, but he grabbed her arm.

"Shal wait I-"was all he managed to say before Shalimar's other arm threw him a punch that sent him flying backwards.

She turned and flashed her eyes at him again. "I told you to get out of the way."

She then continued to Emma's door.

Adam had stopped what he was doing when he heard all the noises and he had been watching the whole scene. Now he turned back to continue where he left of with a worried sigh. He seriously needed to get this cure done. At least Emma's boost had helped him find out some more about how the love spell worked and he didn't think it should take too long time before he had figured out the right cure. Then he suddenly thought of something he hadn't thought of before. Emma could just use a psionic blast and make Michael turn Shalimar back.

He hurried out of the lab and over to Emma's door. When he got there Shalimar was already trying to get Emma to open the door, but without success.

"Emma, Emma, I need to talk to you. I think I can turn Shalimar back, but I need your help and we need to do it ASAP."

He heard footsteps inside, but nobody opened the door.

"Emma, come on, we have to hurry. Please come out."

He heard the door being unlocked and an eye peeked out from behind it.

"Emma, come on. I thought you wanted Shalimar to get back to normal?"

"Maybe we should wait a little longer, I'm not feeling so good."

"No, we have to do it now or Michael might be right when he said that it's getting too late."

"Fine, I'll be there in a sec."

She was about to close the door again, but Shalimar hurried to open it, tired of standing outside while the love of her life was standing inside, hurting and crying.

Shalimar gave Emma a close hug and refused to let go.

"I'm so sorry Emma," she said while she nuzzled into Emma's neck.

"It's okay Shal, really. Let's just get to the lab and give you back your normal self shall we?"

"Are you sure? I mean, I can wait." Shalimar was still holding her tight.

"I'm sure. Let's go."

As the two girls walked out of the room and past Adam, he had to smile. No matter what, these two girls were always looking after each other.

They were now preparing in the lab, getting ready to start the "mission."

Adam had told the guys over the Comlink what they were doing and had refused them to participate. He had actually told them to stay away, which slightly surprised Emma even though she was happy for it after their incident earlier.

Emma stood beside Michael while Shalimar was placed in front of him.

Emma looked at Adam, who nodded and then over to Shalimar.

"Are you ready?"

"Always."

"Okay then, let's get started."

She looked back at Michael and took a deep breath.

"Emma."

"Mmmm." She said, but didn't turn towards Shalimar.

"I love you, you know."

That made her turn towards Shalimar and she couldn't help but smile.

"I know."

The blast formed and she quickly turned her head, shooting Michael with it.

Michael immediately connected with Shalimar as Adam and Emma watched to see the reaction. A beam went from Michael to Shalimar and back to Michael and Shalimar fell to the floor as the connection ended.

Both Adam and Emma rushed over to her.

"Shalimar, are you okay?"

Emma had taken a hold of Shalimar's shoulders and she felt how Shal's mind was working to get everything back to place, but she also felt fear and confusion.

"Adam, I think it's working."

Right then Shalimar looked up and looked at then both in turn, still confused.

"It's okay, Shalimar. Everything will be okay, just give it some time."

Emma gave her a quick, shy hug and rose.

"Where are you going?" both Adam and Shalimar said, Shalimar surprising everyone.

She looked at Adam. "I'm gonna get some rest and let you two work things out. You'll probably make tests to see if she's normal and Shalimar needs to relax and regain her bearings."

With that she walked out of the lab before anyone could reply or follow her.
