Well here is the final chapter. Chapter 12 talks about the next episode. Enjoy.
Jesse walked into the infirmary to see how Jamie was doing when he noticed a sleeping Lexa. Jesse went over to her and touched her shoulder.
Jesse: Lexa?
Lexa slowly raised her head.
Lexa: Ugh, What time is it?
Jesse: Two a.m. What are you doing here?
Lexa: I haven't really spent time with her and I feel that if I open up to her, maybe she'll talk to us about what happened to her.
Jesse: Lexa I don't think you were distant with her, but I do think if you talk to her she might come around.
Lexa: If she wakes up. What if were too late?
Jesse: Lexa don't think like that. She's a tough kid, she'll pull through.
Lexa: I know I'm just scared that's all.
Jesse: We all are. Come on you need to get some rest. You're no use to Jamie if you haven't had your beauty sleep.
Lexa smiles and grabs Jesse's open hand and he lead her out of the room. But unknown to them Jamie was awake. After Jesse and Lexa had left the room Jamie sat up in the bed. Jamie looked down at her hands it had blue lightning scars on her hands, wrists, and parts of her arms. She ran her fingers over the scars, they didn't hurt, but know exactly who was to blame; Eckhart. She had to figure out what he did to her, she had to investigate or she would die. She would die a painful and horrible death, and Jamie just couldn't handle that. So she got out of bed and headed for the room that had all her belongings. Once she got there she found Kaddy waiting.
Kaddy: I thought you would run once you woke up.
Jamie: But how did you, never mind you're a psychic.
Kaddy: Yeah, sorry about that.
Jamie: You never really needed help did you?
Kaddy: No. Adam is a good friend of my family and he told me about you and he thought I could help.
Jamie: Just like Adam.
Kaddy: He loves you Jamie and he thought he was losing you. He had no choice, you weren't talking to him or the others.
Jamie: You're older than me aren't you?
Kaddy: I'm twenty-one.
Jamie: You used your powers against me and tricked me into telling you my painful past.
Kaddy: I made you think I was younger that's it. You told me on your own. You have to tell Adam.
Jamie: I can't.
Kaddy: It just might save your life.
Jamie: Just stay out of it. I guess I can't trust you won't tell them where I'm going since you already know.
Kaddy: I do and I will tell them, after they find you missing.
Jamie was shocked.
Jamie: You will wait until Adam starts freaking out that I'm missing?
Kaddy: You need a break from this craziness but you will have to talk to them.
Jamie: How?
Kaddy: Try Lexa first.
Jamie: Lexa? But why her?
Kaddy: She will understand more of what you're going through than you think. Trust me.
Jamie: Thank you.
And Jamie left with all her gabs. Kaddy looked out the window and in five minutes she was Jamie board her "Double Helix" and she watched it as it flew off into the night.
Kaddy: Good luck Jamie. Call me if you need me.
Kaddy then went to bed knowing she will be yelled at in the morning.
-7:15 AM-
Kaddy was woken up by noises and people yelling.
Kaddy: Oh boy here we go.
Kaddy walked down to the lab finding a very concerned Mutant X team.
Adam: Kaddy, there you are. Have you seen Jamie?
Kaddy: Yeah around two this morning. Why?
Jesse: Wait a minute I saw Jamie at two and she was unconscious.
Kaddy: In the infirmary right?
Lexa: Yes, both Jesse and I were there.
Kaddy: Really well I wasn't in the infirmary when I saw her.
Adam: What!
Kaddy: She came into my room; well technically it was her room but I have been using it.
Adam: Kaddy where is she.
Kaddy: First of all Adam she is not fine and needs to ba alone. I can see why she wasn't talking to you.
Adam: And why is that?
Adam was getting a little upset now.
Kaddy: You keep asking her what wrong, right when she's about too and you scare her off.
Jesse: Where is she Kaddy? Please tell us.
Kaddy: Not before you listen to what I have to say.
Brennan: Fine we'll listen.
Kaddy: Good. You'll need to sit down for this.
They all found a chair and each looking anxious.
Kaddy: First of all, Adam asked me to help Jamie and I told her that.
Adam: What! Why would you do that?
Kaddy: She needed to know now please listen Adam because if you don't Jamie might die.
Adam: Alright.
Kaddy: Jamie told me what was bothering her and she told some of the kids of the X-Men team.
Brennan was about to speak up but Kaddy stopped him.
Kaddy: She wasn't ready to tell you yet.
Shalimar: But we're her family.
Kaddy: Shal something bad happened to her at a young age. You have been through something traumatic right? Did you open up so quickly to your friends?
Shalimar: No. I didn't.
Lexa: I think I know how to talk to her.
Kaddy: I thought you would.
Lexa smiled while the others were confused.
Kaddy: She's at Sanctuary 2 waiting for you. Be gentle because she's alone and scared. You should go now.
Adam: Thanks a lot Kaddy.
Kaddy: Anytime Adam. Good luck, and Adam?
Adam: Yeah.
Kaddy: Be patient with her. She really needs you.
Adam: Okay, thanks again.
After that the entire Mutant X team had headed home.
Adam: Jamie? You here?
Jamie walked out into the light in front of the Mutant X team.
Jamie: Yeah I'm here.
Adam: How are you feeling?
Jamie: Crappy. Did you know I started mutating?
Adam: No I didn't. Why didn't you tell me?
Jamie: Cause at the time it was none of your business.
Adam: And now?
Jamie: Mutants are your business.
Adam: When you're ready to tell me the whole story you know where to find me.
Jamie: Thanks Adam.
The Mutant X team dispersed but Jamie stopped Lexa.
Jamie: Can I talk to you?
Lexa: Sure.
