Chapter 3: Finding Out

15 minutes later…

Shalimar ran into Sanctuary looking for someone to talk to about what she just saw. Jesse was walking to the kitchen when he noticed Shalimar in the front door, looking for something.

"Hey, I thought you were going to get some liquor" Jesse asked with a look of confusion on his face.

Shalimar jumped at the sound of his voice and walked over to him and gave him a hug.

"I didn't go" she said flatly, she had the same look of confusion on her face.

"Why not?" Jesse asked wondering why she didn't do what she said what she was going to do.

"Ok, remember when we came out of the movie" she asked getting ready to tell Jess the whole story.

"Yeah" Jesse said the confusion on his face deepened as he sat down to listen to the story.

"Well I started to get this feeling, that we were being followed" Shalimar continued.

"Oh my god Shal, why didn't you tell me" Jesse replied standing up in a defensive.

"Will you let me finish" Shalimar protested as Jesse sat back down.

"Oh, sorry" Jesse said with a apologizing look on his face.

"Anyway, I told you that I was going to the liquor store right" Shalimar asked trying to get this story over with.

"Yeah" Jess answered, the confusion turned to his face.

"Well I wasn't going to the liquor store, I was going to follow the person that followed us" Shal continued as she saw the look of pure confusion on the man that she considered as her brothers' face.

"Why the hell didn't you go without backup?" Jesse said with anger creeping up in his voice, and Shal could sense it.

"Jess, would you shut the fuck up and let me finish" Shal retorted getting just a little bit angry.

Jess sat back down and perked up his ears, since he didn't want Shal to get angry, especially with him. Just then Emma walked in the room and saw Shal and Jess, and it looked like Shalimar was telling a story.

"Hey guys" Emma said with a cheerful voice, but when she saw Shal and Jesse's face she sat down right beside Jesse.

"Oh where was I before you so rudely interrupted me" Shal continued staring straight at Jess. Emma saw this look of confusion on his face and developed one of her own.

"Oh yeah, I followed the guy that was following us and I ended up at the Best Western Motel" Shalimar stopped went to the kitchen and received a bottle of water.

/ Oh my god, isn't that where Brennan is staying. Oh fuck he follows her for a living now, Shit / Emma thought before Shalimar came back into the TV room.

"Anyway, I followed this guy to his room and saw him turn around to say goodnight to his neighbor, before he turned back around I got a glimpse of his face" Shalimar had to pause while a tear was coming down her face.

"Well who was it" Jesse persisted as he saw the tear coming down Shal's face.

"It… It was Brennan" she managed to stutter.

/ Oh fuck she saw him if she finds out that I knew that he was alive and didn't tell her she will kill me / Emma thought before running away.

"Well that's impossible, Brennan's dead" Jesse replied with a questioning look on his face.

Shalimar just ignored that comment and ran after Emma. When she arrived at the psionic's room she walked in and saw Emma lying on her bed.

"What was that about" Shal questioned Emma with the same look of confusion that was on Jesse's face.

Emma brought herself to look at her best friends face and let her look into her eyes. It took Shalimar a few minutes to figure it out.

"You knew… You knew that Brennan was alive and you didn't tell me" Shal stuttered as she backed away from Emma.

"Shal, he wouldn't let me" Emma said as tears started to fall from her eyes.

"Oh that's great, you've been in contact with him" Shalimar replied and it did not sound good.

"Shal please, let me explain" Emma tried to get Shalimar to listen.

"Oh I think you have done enough, don't you" Shalimar retorted before she started to run.

Shalimar ran right out of Sanctuary without a word to anyone. She had to find a place to think and she knew where to go. She was going to give him a piece of her mind. /I can't trust anyone. My best friend lied to me and kept him from me. I swear I'm going to kill him or at least give him a piece of my mind about what he did to me. Fuck them, fuck them all. / Shalimar thought before she enter a room at the Best Western Motel.
