Title: Lest He Becomes Part

Hint: Uh-oh made a mistake last chapter, Jesse was like a brother and I was like a friend, that's what I meant to say

Chapter 3: Not Dead

Lexa was waiting in the conference room and had been there for about 5 minutes, waiting for everybody to show up. She could hear Emma yelling at Brennan and she knew why. She didn't know Shalimar that well but she had been, watching over her, well that's what Adam and her bosses wanted her to do anyway. She knew of Brennan's reputation with woman, hell everybody knew that rep was gold. She first met Shal when Adam chose her as his next project, trying to stop Eckhart and all. But that was years ago, she didn't even think that Shalimar had remembered her. Adam had come back from wherever the hell he was and was waiting with her. Although he didn't know what was so important, he missed the times when he was the one to call everybody together and tell them about their next mission, although by the look on his face he wasn't sure if this was about another mission or Shalimar.

First it was Jesse and Emma to join her and by the way they looked Lexa knew they were known as a couple. It took a couple of minutes for Sparky, as she called him, to come into the room and sit on the couch.

"Okay" she started, nervousness clear in her voice. She looked over at Adam for reassurance, he just nodded and she turned back to face everyone so she could start.

"I have brought you all here, to talk about Shalimar" she finished her opening sentence and you could see sweat dripping down her forehead.

"Ugh, what is there to talk about Shalimar is dead" Brennan burst in anger.

"That's just it, Shalimar isn't dead" Lexa corrected.

"What do you mean she isn't dead" asked Emma, confusion etched in her face.

Lexa brought up a map and put Shalimar's com link signal against it, it was moving. "If she was dead, would her com link signal be moving" she asked.

"Well it could just be that someone is carrying her somewhere or took off her ring" Jesse piped in.

Adam was listening to all this information and shook his head trying to figure out what was happening. He got up out of the chair and walked back to the garage, to his car, he needed some place to think and the only place he could do that was the spot that Shalimar loved, sitting on top of the rock the lived in.

"No, that can't be because if someone took Shal's ring off her signal would be disconnected. And it's possible that someone is carrying her" Lexa went to the computer to hack into some camera systems.

Jesse smiled thinking that he thought of a possibility that was possibly true.

"But this is where she landed and watch her get up and walk away" Lexa finished.

Jesse's smile turned upside down as Emma stood up and hugged him, knowing that there might be a possibility that her best friend and his 'sister' might be alive. Brennan couldn't handle all this information at once; first he found out that Shal had feelings for him, now he finds out that she may not be dead after all. His head was spinning; he had to get outta there. He ran to his room to think things through.
