Disclaimer: I own nothing but the character of Lucien.
Hey guys I've been stuck on a course all day and will be for the next 2 weeks. Writing this is the only thing that kept me sane today. I'm not sure how often I can update this but I'll try to make at least 2 updates this week. I hope you enjoy the story.

My Brothers Keeper
Chapter 1: Lucien Runs.
The young redheaded boy couldn't have been much older than 17. He was lucky that he was such a fast runner; the 3 guys in suits would never catch him. Or at least he hoped they wouldn't, he really didn't like what he saw in their minds. He didn't even know for sure why they were chasing him but he had a pretty good idea that it was because of what he could do.
He was a telepath.
He couldn't remember whether he was 4 or 5 when he first realised that he could hear his mother's thoughts. Not just hear them; he could see them like they were his own thoughts. It was also then that he found out that neither of his parents loved him and that they'd already ditched his big sister in a foster home and would probably do the same to him if he gave them the chance.
They never got that chance, he ran away as soon as he was old enough to take care of himself. He'd been trying to find his big sister but it didn't matter how hard he tried, it was like she didn't exist. That was probably how they had found him, he was becoming too noticeable. So now he was running.
Jesse Kilmartin was at his computer trying to patch into the feed from a security camera. They'd gotten word that some GSA agents were chasing a new mutant and they had to find out his exact location so Brennan and Shalimar could find him before the GSA agents got their hands on him. It only took 30 seconds for Jesse to find him. He relayed the new mutant's location to Bren and Shal in the Helix while he ran the young mans picture through the database.
He almost fell off his chair when he saw the kid's name. 'Lucien DeLauro'. It couldn't just be a coincidence; DeLauro wasn't a very common name. Emma had never mentioned anything about even having a brother let alone that he was a new mutant. But now that he looked properly at the picture Jesse could see the resemblance, the same bright red hair and blue eyes. He even had the same nose as Emma.
"Hey Adam, there's something you might want to look at here" Jesse said into his com-ring.
"Ok I'll be right there"
Adam couldn't quite believe his eyes when he saw the young mutant's face on the computer screen.
"Has Emma seen this yet?" Adam sounded a little concerned.
"Has Emma seen what yet?" the psyonic asked as she walked up behind them.
Her jaw nearly dropped when she saw the computer screen.
"Lucien?"
