A Friends Return
Ch. 5 Back In Action
By: NelleFang-Slayer
Brennan wakes up and looks over at his clock and moans.
Brennan: 6:15? Is that right? Uhh!
Brennan gets out of bed and starts walking toward the kitchen but picks into Jamie's room. She's not there.
Brennan: Adam, Jamie's not in her room.
Adam: What?
They both run until they get to the Dojo and sees Jesse, Lexa, Shalimar, and Emma watching Jamie kicking some hologram ass.
Brennan: Jamie! What are you doing?
Everyone looks at Brennan.
Jamie: What?
As she says this the hologram was able to jump kick her in the chest. Jamie falls flat on her face and Emma turns off the hologram.
Jamie: You know I was kicking his ass before you two showed up.
Shalimar: You okay.
Jamie: No damage.
Shalimar gives her a small smile.
Adam: Are you sure you can handle this right know?
Jamie: Yes. I've been resting for a week and I'm tired of not being able to do anything.
Brennan: We just don't want you to get hurt that's all.
Jamie: Well you guys don't have to. I have to go do my journal. If you "need" me you know where I'll be.
Adam: Alright.
Jamie walks toward her room feeling like she is being treated like a child.
Emma: You know Bren you didn't have to treat her like that.
Brennan: I'm sorry it's just I saw how terrible she was when she was hurt and I don't think I could handle it if she got hurt this soon after recovering.
Adam: Yeah don't want that to happen again…
Adam is getting stares from everyone by this statement and he excuses himself extremely embarrassed.
Shalimar: He's holding something back.
Brennan: Didn't he always do that.
Shalimar: Bren?
Lexa: Wait Shal, Brennan's right. Adam always kept his secrets.
Emma: Yeah well maybe we can get Jamie to spill.
Jamie is typing on the computer while Adam comes in.
Adam: I'm sorry about before.
Jamie: It's okay. Anyway I like it when somebody cares.
Adam smiles back at Jamie.
Adam: It's just since…
Jamie: I know me too.
Adam: We have to tell the others.
Jamie: Not now, I don't think I could handle it from them also.
Adam: Well they will find out sooner or later.
Jamie: I'm hoping later.
Adam: Well I have to go…
Jamie: Do something you don't want the team to find out about?
Adam: Yeah, so can you cover for me.
Jamie: Sure. Just like old times.
Adam starts to walk away.
Jamie: Adam I'm not stupid, I know your not here.
He turns around and he smiles then disappears.
Jamie: You never learn Adam.
Jamie says to her self. Two minutes later Emma and Shalimar walk in.
Shalimar: How are you feeling?
Jamie: Fine, Why?
Emma: Just wondering. Um did anything happen to you before Adam sent you to live with your family.
Jamie: NO why?
Shalimar: Just curious.
Jamie: Okay whatever. I'm going to go work on my bike if that's alright with you.
Emma: Sure.
As Jamie leaves her room she calls Adam.
Jamie: Adam they are on to us you let something slip without warning me.
Adam: I'm sorry.
Jamie: It's okay.
Jamie writes a note telling the gang that she went out testing her bike. She puts down the letter and gets on her bike.
Jamie: Adam I can't cover for you any more I'm taking a break from Mutant X. You know where to find me if you need anything.
Adam: Alright have a safe trip.
She leaves and Brennan walks out from behind the helix.
Brennan: Jamie why do you need a break from us.
He asks himself as he goes to tell the others of what her over heared.
Sorry for the extremly late chappy. Hope you like it. :)
