A spot light shone down from somewhere above, eliminating the figure curled up in a ball. The man was several times larger than Brennan or Jesse, yet he he was unconscious. The team's senses heightened.
"That's what she can do, you know you really should have told her. I mean imagine finding that out you weren't who thought you were." A voice cold harsh, unfeeling, echoed round the warehouse. "You'll find her back in the Helix. Sorry to bring you all this way for nothing" The voice stopped.
They all exchanged looks. Finally Jesse said what all of them were thinking "Adam, what's going on"
Adam's only reply was to start walking to the Helix.
Emily sat swing her legs. Please let Dad of been fooled she prayed. As far as he was concerned she was now the most powerful mutant and was in the Dominion's pocket. The first part was true the second not so much. If ever she felt like switching sides, she just remember the feelings, thoughts that the last few months had brought.
Emma was the first to enter, she ran over to her sister smiled and hugged her. Emily relaxed she was safe. Emma let go, only for Shalimar and Lexa to take over hugging Emily, then came Brennan followed by Jesse. Last of all was Adam.
Adam couldn't look in the little girls eyes, he couldn't bear to think of all the pain she'd been through and all that was yet to come. "How much do you?"
"All, from before to now to beyond" Emily smiled.
"Lab now"
"But.."
"No I want Adam to run a full check up on you now" Emma looked at Emily, at least she hadn't changed that much. She was still as stubborn as ever.
"Fine!" Emily walked off towards the lab. She spent the next hour with Adam and Jesse running test after test on her.
"All's well. You can go now" Jesse looked confused. Emily's DNA had changed significantly over the last 24 hours and Adam was letting her go. That wasn't right?
"I'm fine Jesse promise" Dame Jesse thought, she can hear me!
"Yes dear Jesse I can" Emily went and started up a hologram program.
"Team I need you all in her ASPA." Adam turned to Jesse, "Get ready this will blow your mind"
The team arrived, Is Emily OK? Who's done what to who? Oh I hope I get to kick some ass now!.
"Right I thought I owed you an explanation."
"Too right"
"Brennan, please let me explain. Look you all know how Geomax is a branch of the Military, and how I created the basic human structure. Well a couple of years into my research a man from the CIA approached me, he wanted a new mutant solider, one that would be able to de everything. After months of trying I failed, everyone failed. The closest we got was Emily, a mutant that can absorb others abilities and make them their own."
"She can do that?"
"Yeah, anyway, as far as the military were concerned we'd failed. Emily was born and left to lead a normal life. Only when the deLauro's family ended, Eckhart found out about her and took her in for experiments. By this time I had left. It, wasn't until she escaped that I realised the extent of her power. I spent the next two years looking for her. One night I almost had her then she disappeared leaving a note with a place and connection number. I put that information in a what do you know couple of days later we have two new members of the mutant x team. I was more by luck than anything else that she came here. And that's the end"
The team stood stunned for a couple of minutes until "So her DNA, has changed because they gave her new mutants' DNA."
"In a word, Yes"
The team left the lab. How had Emily changed? For good for bad? What could she do? How much could she find out? How much power did she really have?
So good? Bad? Please tell me!!!
