"Brennan, calm down!" Emma walked in, to comfort him. "We were just talking!"

"Calm down? Talking? You looked like you were making out with him, Emma!" Brennan shouted sarcastically, his hand still raised straight at Gerald, who looked up blearily at him. He opened his parched up lips and spoke, "Brennan, I can explain-"

"Who the hell are you?" Shalimar shouted, her eyes blazing as the man, 'Gerald' walked another step forward. "You don't know me, my dear. I am Drestine. No, I am not Gerald. He is dead, I killed him himself. Now, move away, so I can finish my job and kill my dear, old, friend your with. You wouldn't want your pretty face ruined, do you, love?" Drestine hissed slyly.

Drestine slowly came to his senses, his head swirling. An awful headache quickly attacked him and cold sweat poured down his face. His body felt numb as his vision went from clouded to clear. His eyes looked about rather bewilered and he realised he was tied to a chair. He gave a chuckle, maybe even a insane chuckle as his eyes slowly saw Brennan and all the other Mutant X members come closer. Adam wore a stern face as he in front of Drestine.

"I suppose you think your very clever, Adam, by catching me?" Drestine spoke, still chuckling and Emma, who had now looked at the man she had actually kissed with disgust, now felt the spy was a criminal.

"No. Drestine," Adam spoke as Brennan's hands were raised with a zapping circulation of electricity.

"You're gonna tell us about the Dark Enemies, bastard, or I'm gonna zap you, like I did before," Brennan snarled angrily and put the zapping electricity near Drestine's face. Drestine eyed it but with an unusual smile.

"Very original, Mr. Mulwray. It's a wonder why the lady wants you..." Drestine hissed as Emma glared at Drestine as well. "If you are not Gerald, how did you have Gerald's memories?"

"I suppose I can tell you. I had the pleasure of making your acquaintance. I simply... sucked them out of Mr. Harrison. Of course, that took quite awhile to get. He was pathetic, writhing and screaming. But of course, you wouldn't want the details, would you?" Drestine spoke with a sly grin, a glint in his eyes. Emma only glared at him with disgust.

"Drestine tell us about the Dark Enemies."

Drestine turned to Adam and gave a insane laugh. All of the Mutant X grimaced as they waited impatiently for Drestine to stop laughing like a maniac.

"Why would you want to know that? Because Mr. Mulwray is being tracked down? Or because you simply want to torture me? You know, Adam, you haven't changed a bit. You're just like the last time I saw you."

"Drestine, I never tried to harm your sister. I tried to cure her." Adam spoke with a hint of sadness creeping in his eyes. Emma turned around, feeling the sadness radiating out of Adam and flashed a perplexed look at his direction.

"You? YOU of all people, lying? This is unbelieveable, hilarious! You never tried to cure Trina, you tried to KILL HER! You son of a bitch KILLED HER WITH YOUR UGLY EXPERIMENTS! And you turned me into a freak! A useful power but a FREAK!" Drestine roared suddenly, suprising members except Adam.

"Adam, what is he talking about?" Shalimar asked but Adam didn't answer. He had an expression of shame, sadness and angry.

"Drestine, I had no intention of killing Trina. I wanted to help her, but she was too weak... Her brain couldn't handle the mutation that could have helped her recover..." Adam said softly.

Drestine glared menacingly and then a burst of strong winds blasted out of Drestine and cut into the members. Adam saw with horror as Drestine's body started to grow darkly.

"LIAR!" Drestine screamed as the wind cut into the Mutant X's flesh. Brennan quickly ran towards Emma and Shalimar and Adam came closer, all of the Mutant X then coming closer to protect themselves. Emma looked up at Brennan's determined face and she went closer to him with a comforted look.

"NO! Drestine! Stop! You're going to kill yourself!" Adam shouted through the loud wind but Drestine's eyes were glowing with anger in the most menacing way possible. Drestine gave a shocked scream, an angered one, both sounding despairing and thunderous in the blasting wind coming from him and then in a bright, white flash, all the Mutant X blinked and Drestine was gone, the ropes that binded him on the chair dangling useless on the ground. A sick smell of flesh and blood creeped into their noses and they all grimaced. Adam, who looked at the scene, only bit in his lips hard untill he could taste blood.

Then the Mutant X all departed from the place silently, without saying a word for a while...

A/N: (sniffle) It's so tragic... He wasn't bad, he just went to darkness cause he was filled too much with bad and revenge. Well, I hope you liked that chapter. (and sorry about the short chapter!)
