They stayed outside in the backyard watching Jerrald use his powers. Alasia had one of her gloves off in case he started another fire.
"I'm going to check on Jesse, dad," she said, slipping on the glove.
"Alright," he said as she walked into the mansion and disappeared.
"Why does she wear gloves?" Brennan asked as the door closed.
"If she doesn't she'll freeze everything she touches," Jerrald said coming over, extending his hand toward Adam. "You must be Adam. I'm Jerrald Masters, known as Inferno to my friends."
"Hello," Adam said, then turned to Gerard. "Where is Jesse?"
"He's in the lab on the second floor," Gerard said. "Jerrald, why don't you take them up there. I'll be there in a couple of minutes as soon as I get the others back in the house."
In the lab, Alasia walked in to find the bed where Jesse had been laying was empty. Looking around she saw him nowhere in the lab, so she walked further into the lab. As the door closed behind her, she felt a arm circle her neck.
"Where am I and who are you?" Jesse asked.
"I'm here to help you Jesse," Alasia said and felt the grip relax and she turned to face him. "We found you hurt and unconscious in a warehouse and brought you here to my father's mansion."
"Why can't I remember anything?" Jesse asked shaking his head trying to remember.
"The blow to your head has caused amnesia," Alasia said to him. "Your memory should return in time."
He stepped away and sat down once again on the bed as she checked the wound on the back of his head. She turned as the door slid open and Jerrald and the others entered the room. Jesse glanced over at Alasia and she smiled and crossed over to the others while Jesse stared at them.
"We've decided we're going to take him back to the Sanctuary and try to jog his memory there," Adam said to her. "As soon as your father comes in, we'll be leaving."
"Who says I'm going with you," Jesse said getting to his feet. "I don't even know or remember you."
Adam glanced over at Brennan and nodded. Brennan stepped up to Jesse and got a grip on his arm and sent a small electric shock through him, knocking him out. They got him back onto the bed just as Gerard came in the room.
"Is he okay?" Gerard asked.
"He'll be fine," Adam said. "Gerard, we're going to take him back to Sanctuary with us. Call us if you need anything."
"I will," Gerard said. "Thanks for coming Adam. It was good seeing you again."
"And you," Adam said shaking Gerard's hand once more.
Brennan and Adam carried Jesse between them and headed outside to where the Double Helix was waiting. They strapped Jesse to one of the seats and fired the engines up and soon took off away from the mansion and back toward Sanctuary. At Geomex, Clarissa reentered Eckhart's office with more information on the other mutants living with Gerard Sullivan and his daughter Alasia. She handed him the information and he read through every page and smiled.
"Get a team ready to raid the place in three days," Eckhart said putting the papers on his desk.
"Yes Mr. Eckhart," Clarissa said heading back out of the office and shutting the door.
Meanwhile Adam and the others arrived at Sanctuary and piloted the Helix back in the hangar. While Shalimar and Emma went to check on any messages, Adam and Brennan carried Jesse to his room and put him on the bed, covering him with a blanket and left, leaving the door opened a notch and returned to the main part of Sanctuary.
"You and Gerard must have been really good friends," Brennan said as they walked down the hall.
"The best of friends," Adam said. "The last time I saw him, Alasia was only eight years old. But it was good to see him after all these years."
Shalimar and Emma were talking in the room when they came in and sat down near them.
"What's next?" Emma asked looking at Adam. "I mean Jesse doesn't even remember us or who he is."
"It will take time for him to get his memory back," Adam said. "We just need to remind him of things that have happened between us to help him remember."
Jesse's eyes slowly opened and he looked around at his surroundings and didn't recognize where he was. He sat up too quickly and the room did a spin on him and he nearly passed out. He waited for it to pass and then got to his feet slowly and saw that the door was slightly open. He went over and looked out and didn't see anyone. He opened the door all the way and stepped out of the room and started walking down the hallway to see if he could find anyone. He finally heard voices and headed in that direction, going slowly. They looked up as he came slowly around the corner and stopped when he saw them.
"Where am I?" he asked leaning against the wall, not moving.
Before he knew it he fell completely through the wall landing on the other side of it. He leapt to his feet wondering if he was losing his mind.
"What in the world is going on?" he demanded looking from one person to another. "Is this some kind of fun house? What did you people do to me?"
"Calm down Jesse," Brennan said approaching him with caution. "We're your friends and we're here to help you."
"Leave me alone," Jesse yelled. "I don't know what is going on but I want out of here right now."
Brennan reached out to touch his shoulder and the next thing he knew he was flying across the room where he hit the wall hard and slumped to the ground. Shalimar rushed over to check on him while Adam and Emma dealed with Jesse.
"Jesse, just calm down," Emma said. "We're not going to hurt you, we just want to help you."
Jesse didn't listen as he turned and ran back the way he came.
"Shalimar, go find him," Adam told her. "We'll look after Brennan."
Shalimar nodded and took off in the direction that Jesse had gone. Adam and Emma was able to get Brennan into an examining room. Besides a nice lump on the back of his head, he was fine and starting to come around.
"Man, what hit me?" Brennan said as he went to sit up.
"Jesse did," Emma told him.
Shalimar had lost Jesse and was searching frantically for him when she felt a presence behind him and saw Jesse's reflection in the mirror near her. Her eyes flashed yellow and she whirled around to face him.
"Jesse please calm down and come with me," Shalimar said to him. "We just want to help you remember who you are and who your friends are."
Jesse tried to ram past her but Shalimar lashed out with a kick that knocked him unconscious.
"Sorry Jesse," Shalimar said as she picked him up and carried him back to his room and shut and locked the door and went to find the others who was talking in the examining room.
"Did you find him?" Adam asked handing Brennan a ice pack.
"Yeah," Shalimar said nodding. "I had to knock him out. I put him back in his room and locked the door."
