Ch. 7 Secrets Revealed
By: NelleFang-Slayer
Jesse: Hey Sean why did Jamie come to you instead of us?
Sean: Well James and I have been through a lot like why you're here. You're here because you looked in her journal and found that picture of James, Eckhart, and I.
Shalimar: So where is she hiding?
Sean: Under the place. She and Adam built it. I've never seen the top secret land of Jamie but it was where she could talk to Adam. Even since she was sent to live with me she went down there to talk to Adam to keep in touch.
Shalimar: I wonder why he never told us.
As this conversation was going on they went down to Jamie" secret "sanctuary".
Brennan: Shal it's Adam he barely told us anything.
Jamie: That's not his fault. He wanted to keep from hurting us.
Brennan: But he hurt us by not informing us.
Jamie: I'm sorry what I did but I'm not going to talk to you guys about it.
Sean: If you won't I will. They disserve to know.
Jamie: Oh really Sean? Fine tell them what happened to you but leave me out of it.
She runs toward the opposite side of the room pushes some buttons than walks through a hidden door.
Shalimar: Jam… What was up with her?
Sean: Lets just have a seat and I will explain.
They all sat down.
Jamie is walking back and forth.
Jamie: This isn't happening. This isn't happening.
All of a sudden some one showed up that she would have never had guessed. Adam.
Adam: I know your scared but have kept so many secrets from them. We need to tell them. Come on lets do it together.
They both turn around and walked through the trap door.
Sean: I thought you would show and make her change her mind.
Jamie: Yeah well that's what he does.
Brennan: So Sean, are you a mutant also?
Sean: Actually… No.
Shalimar: Then why were you in the picture with Jamie and Eckhart?
Adam: We can explain that. Jamie?
Adam looks at Jamie and there are tears running down her cheeks.
Jamie: All right, just promise that when I need to stop we stop. Okay?
Shalimar: Sure sweetie, anything that makes you comfortable.
Jamie: Trust me that is that last thing that will make me comfortable.
Jesse: Just take your time.
Jamie and Adam walk over to the couch and sit down.
Jamie: Well it stated a month after my parents died.
Flash Back
Jamie's voice: I had already meet Shalimar and Jesse.
Shalimar: Jamie you up for some training?
Jamie: Can't. Adam wants me to do a pick up of equipment.
Shalimar: Where are you going?
Jamie: Just your average radio shack.
Shalimar: Alright. Tell me when you get back.
Jamie: Sure. See you later.
Jamie's voice: I wasn't going to pick up anything. I was meeting Sean.
Sean's voice: But Eckhart found me first and was waiting for Jamie.
Adam's voice: Jamie is an elemental and feral she was a trophy in mutants to acquire.
Shalimar's voice: That's why she was gone for three days.
Adam's voice: I knew she was going to see Sean but didn't know how long it would be.
Jamie's voice: Anyway. Eckhart trapped me. When I got to the GSA Headquarters they started doing experiments on me, painful ones.
Dark Room
Jamie: Please let Sean go I'll do anything.
Eckhart: That's what I wanted to hear. Make Miss Scott ready for her first assignment. You, Miss Scott, lead us to Adam Kane's Sanctuary.
Jamie: I don't know where it is. He only gave me a place to live and only see him every other two weeks.
Eckhart: There is a way to contact him yes?
Jamie: Y..yes.
Eckhart: Make contact.
Jamie: Let me see Sean.
Eckhart: Fine. Show him in.
A scared young man with sandy blond hair walks into the room.
Jamie: Sean?
Sean: I'm sorry Jamie. I had no choice.
Jamie just hugged him.
Eckhart: You have ten minutes then call Adam to meet you at this apartment of yours.
He left and Jamie turned to Sean with tears in her eyes.
Jamie: Sean, do you still have that necklace I gave to you last Christmas?
Sean: Of course. I already tried calling Adam on it but it didn't work.
Jamie: Let me try.
Jamie does some weird thing with the necklace and it beeps.
Jamie: Adam I hope you get this. Eckhart has Sean and I and he wants me to trick you into going to the apartment you set up for me. Oh Adam I hope you get this.
Jamie's voice: And he did. He was waiting for us at the apartment, in hiding of course and snuck us right out from under their noses.
Back to Present
Shalimar: Why didn't you ask our help?
Jamie: Adam was my family. You were just people I knew. We weren't family yet.
Jesse: I understand.
Shalimar: Me too. Don't worry about it.
Brennan: I don't get it. What was with the hiding?
Jamie: Bren I can't... okay?
Brennan: Yeah okay.
Lexa: Jamie maybe I can explain for you?
Jamie: Sure.
Lexa: They both got a little reminder of that terrible time and they just needed space. Right?
Jamie: Bull's-eye.
Jamie cracks a little smile.
Adam: Hopefully the worst is over.
Jamie: Yeah. And I have all you guys to call if I need anything.
Brennan: What do you mean call?
Jamie: I'm moving.
Sorry for the wait. Hope you like it. R&R. :)
