A/N: Thanks for all the reviews, I'm so grateful and I love all of you who did; well sorta, you know what I mean
Recap: The kiss was very, very heated and Brennan led Shalimar to his bed and fell on top of it. With Shalimar on top of him, they took each other's clothes off and both fell asleep, only to dream of peaceful things together.
Epilogue: Back to Normal
2 Months Later…Shalimar was finally back to normal after seeing her mother and revealing something that she kept hidden for years, even from Adam's. Her and Brennan are closer than ever and Emma and Jess's minds are at ease. Adam is still at his convention that he went back to. Everyone lent a hand to make two rooms a master for Shal and Brennan. They were in the midst of putting a new mutant in the Underground, but first they had to get to her without being ambushed. They were just about to enter a warehouse when Shal stopped dead in her tracks.
"What is it?" Brennan asked who finally noticed that Shal had stopped.
"Someone's here, someone we don't want here" she stated.
"Well good perception, Ms Fox" said a very familiar voice, a voice that Shal and Brennan desperately wanted to forget.
"Eckhart, why can't you just go away and stay there" Brennan snapped.
"Well I would Mr Mulray, but you killed an agent of mine, one that was very focused on one of your group" Eckhart snapped back, as a least five agents walked up behind him.
"Why won't everyone just shut up about him" Shal yelled.
"Ok we will" Eckhart said gesturing to one agent to fight each of them.
One gained eye contact with Shalimar and flashed his eyes a silvery grey, Shal flashed hers a bright golden. Brennan watched this and didn't even notice the man that was standing in front of him, until the guy threw a punch, Brennan luckily blocked it. The man looked in his late forties; medium build and he seemed human. Brennan blocked kicks and punches and acquired a few as well. Brennan obviously had enough, you could tell because he made a huge sigh after he got up from the cement. He generated a fairly large tesla coil and shot it at his opponent. He finished that guy only to start to fight another one of Eckhart's agents.
Shalimar was on the other hand doing pretty well; her opponent hadn't touched her once. This guy obviously just found out he was a mutant because he couldn't fight worth shit. Shalimar had gotten a few punches and kicks in edgewise and he ended up falling down with every one. She just had to get behind him so she could grab his neck and crack it, which would kill him. But she did the next best thing, she broke his nose and when he was clutching his face she flipped behind him and immediately broke his neck. She got in fighting stance to fight her next victim.
After the fight Shal and Brennan had gotten a hold of the new mutant and brought her to the Underground, and then ran back to Sanctuary (metaphorically speaking) to get ready for clubbing.
Shalimar had decided to wear her blue jean mini skirt that Emma got her for her birthday, and a black off the shoulder shirt that showed enough of her stomach so that her butterfly tattoo that was above her naval showed. She also had a tattoo of a heart on fire that was on the top of her back between her shoulder blades that showed. She was now standing in front of the full length mirror and could see Brennan staring at her.
"What?" Shal asked after she twirled around for him.
"Hm, just that your outfit now makes me want to do this" he said as he dipped his head down to catch her lips in his.
"Just the outfit?" she asked after moaning in delight.
"Guys come on, the bus is leaving" Emma called before Brennan could answer her question.
Shalimar pulled on her black boots and ran towards her teammates.
"Guess I'm going to have to wait for that answer later" she called to Brennan who was right behind her.
They decided to go to one of Shal and Emma's favourite clubs, they entered grabbed a booth; grabbed some drinks for themselves and Shal ran to the dance floor. She had the same spunk she had before the whole ordeal on the dance floor and was having a ton of fun. After Brennan's first drink he joined her, as Jesse and Emma gazed at their friends dancing the night away, Jesse could see Brennan's hands on her waist and moving up. Jesse loved Brennan like a brother but was still really overprotective of someone he called his 'sister'. And if he hurt her again he didn't know what he would do. Emma noticed this and placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder. After about another hour of dancing, Shal lead Brennan to the booth and grabbed him another beer. Shalimar slowly sipped her strawberry martini while she leaned into his chest, Emma and Jesse followed them to the booth shortly after. Shalimar was having her first club night in 2 months, everyone was so afraid that something would happen to her and she would disappear but they had been lightening up. Brennan wrapped his arm around Shal's waist and turned her around and kissed her. Shal didn't care that she spilt her martini; it was just the table anyway. Jesse decided to ask Emma to dance and leave the two lovebirds alone.
"So you didn't answer my question?" Shal reminded him when she broke off the kiss for air.
"Which question was that?" he asked after a sad moan that she broke the kiss off.
"If you just like the outfit?" she asked again while teasing him a little.
"Hmm, I like every bit of you" he answered while kissing her a little bit more.
"Good to know" Shal smiled while moving so she was straddling him.
Shalimar kissed him a few more times before jumping off him to drink her martini that Emma gladly got for her. She finished her martini and Brennan finished his beer just as a slow song came on.
"Would you care to dance" Brennan asked all gentlemeny.
"I'd love to" she answered as she took his hand and followed him towards the dance floor.
After they had gotten to the middle of the floor Brennan's hands went around her waist and hers went around his neck, while Emma and Jesse joined them. Shalimar was happy with the man she loved and her two best friends, her family. She was happy being able to leave her home alone without people following her in case anything went wrong. Brennan was happy he had gotten back together with the one he loved and he had his friends to help. Jesse and Emma were great; they felt that their lives were perfect. Shalimar felt revitalized; she was great, she felt like she was home and that she didn't have to run away to find a place that felt exactly like it, she felt at peace. Everything was like it was on that Valentines Day when she told Brennan she loved him, and she was glad that it would never change.
