Sanctuary
Brennan woke up in his room, all the team around his bed. He tried to sit up, but was pushed down by all the members of the team.
“What do you need Bren?” Emma asked him from far away.
“…Water, I’m thirsty. Em…what happened”. Emma returned with water, “ The girl, she has the ability to absorb the abilities of mutants if she touches them. Your luck, you only hung on for a few seconds”. Brennan sighed after drinking the water, “ It felt like I held on for a life time”.
Adam entered quietly, “ Brennan, you ok”. Brennan nodded, really wanting to go asleep. “ Good, if you can walk, I suggest you get up. You’ll wanna see this”. Adam and Emma then left.
Brennan soon left the comfort of his room, walking to the group. “ So what’s so important that I needed to see”? Adam sighed typing some keys, “ I needed every one here, to see this”.
The screen came on and showed a reporter. She was talking very fast, “ It seems the mutant menus has taken a final big step, preparing to attack all humans, this is their message to us”. The camera turned to show a building burning with writing on,
‘ Mutants stand up’.
The screen clicked off and they all sat their gob smacked. Adam sighed, “That happened 3 hours ago. And I believe our friend in the lab was meant to be at the centre of it all. She was running for a reason guys…she’s running for her life. So we need to stop this threat. Shalimar, I want you and Jesse to get the helix, Emma get our friend in the lab and Brennan if your up to it you need to help me get some stuff from the lab”.
The all nodded agreeing to meet on the helix. When they all boarded Adam gave the direction and they were off.
When they flew over where they were supposed to go Adam stared down astonished. The school where his contact was, was…well, destroyed. He sighed angrily sitting back in his chair, “ Jesse, go to rubies book store, lets hope some made it there”.
Rubies bookstore
Adam walked through with Shalimar, “ Ruby are they hear”. Ruby quickly got from behind his desk, “ Adam, you will not believe how many there are”. Adam walked straight to the secret entrance.
The new room was packed with young people, so young that some were in there teens. As soon as Adam walked in he was greeted by too many voices.
Young white haired women walked ahead of the group. “ Adam, were thankful were hear, we barely managed to escape. The school was attacked, I don’t know how many got out”.
Adam calmed her down, “ Where is Charles”. She gently fell quiet shaking her head,
“ He never got out with us, he must have been caught”.
Adam sighed, “ well, we may as well get you all back to sanctuary”. Some looked up shocked. “ What! To sanctuary, the home of mutant x”.
Adam nodded, “ All are welcome, IF! You all keep low, I’ll then be able to get you all to other safe houses”.
Sanctuary
Adam walked through as mutant x sat looking at the big group following him. Some people shaking their hands thanking them.
Adam eventually showed them to rooms; about 5 adults were there, the rest teens. Shalimar shook a bit, “ Dam Adam, so many people, I’ll be on edge all the time”. Emma sighed shaking her head in agreement; “ I’ll have my shields up all the time now”.
“ I’m sorry guys but they quickly needed some place and this was the only place that could hold them all”.
Jesse walked into the kitchen for food, teens fluttered the room, eating, messing with the TV. Any thing they could get there hands on.
Jesse went to the fridge a teen already tapping him. “ Hey your Jesse isn’t you. I’m magma. Name says it all. So you’re a member of mutant x…pretty cool”. Jesse smiled, not really wanting to talk. But she was persistent, “ So what’s your ability, I heard all crazy stories about you guys, did one of you really jump 20 feet into the air”.
Jesse smiled again, “ That would be Shalimar”. The girl suddenly getting really exited and talked faster.
“ So you can run through walls too like kitty. I heard you can even smash a guys head with a rock hand”.
Jesse just had to laugh out at that, never had he done some thing like that, and never would he. “ I mass a lot but I’d never go so far as smashing some ones head in”. The girl laughed, “ Cool! So who else is on your team apart from Shalimar, what can she do”. A small group formed and Jesse found him self being asked 20 questions at once.
Brennan lay in his room, Shalimar keeping an eye on him. “ Dam that girl really through me out of whack. She just seemed to suck all my energy away”. Shalimar smiled as she helped him get in bed, “ well, Adam said you’ll be fine in a few days. How are your powers”?
Brennan lifted his hand, it instantly sparking up, “ fine”. She laughed, “I knew you’d never lose your spark. Get to sleep, and you better coos Adam said I had to make sure”.
He laughed, “ Poor little Shalimar, has to stand guard”. She grabbed the pillow he was leaning on and hit him with it, “ I’m not poor nor am I little. I could kick your ass any day, even if you’re sick”.
Brennan laughed, “ Well hopefully I’ll get better QUICKER so I can take you up on that”. Her eyes sparkled with the feral side, “ Well why not now”. “ Because I’m still tired and sick”. She laughed as he tried to act sick and drop his head to his pillow.
He soon fell into a deep sleep; Shalimar stared for a moment, ideas going through her mind. She though about getting him back by dumping a bucket of cold water onto him, but that would be sly, and she needed to be going.
She exited quietly not to wake him from much needed sleep.
Emma sat at the pond trying to ignore the constant talking in the background. She was just about ready to snap when a tap on her shoulder made her turn.
There stud a redy heard women smiling down at her, “ Can I join you. Look like you need help meditating”.
Emma smiled, “ Of curse, I need a better distraction than the voices”. The women sat down, closing her eyes the same time as Emma. Being pulled into each other’s little worlds.
Shalimar went to the dojo, only to find her favourite hologram being loaded. She stormed forwards, “ Hey what are you doing”. A man about 18 stepped out, “ I was just loading a training simulation, I train a lot. Who are you”? She touched a button and the simulation ended. “ I’m Shalimar and I need to train”. She pulled the keypad out and continued to type some thing.
“ So why don’t we train together”. She smiled before turning, “ I don’t think you’d be able to keep up”. This smile was returned, “ You sure it’s the right person you’re talking about”.
Days later
Every one was enjoying them selves; Adam had even let Brennan out his room, and move about more.
Brennan walked out into the pen area of sanctuary, stretching his arms high above his head. Ignoring the slight pains form it.
Today he felt like he needed to catch up on training, but knowing fully well, Adam would have a problem, he would have to settle for relaxing.
An eruption of laughter filled the area and the relaxing ideas quickly vanished from his mind. No way would he be able to relax with all these people here.
He strode towards where Jesse usually was…at the computer. But instead, two young mutants inhabited it. One was male, his blond hair wavy and hanging near his eyes, he had a mischief grin on his face, making Brennan’s senses go on alert.
“ Hey, what are you two doing!”
The other teen, female, looked up at him, her eyes a mix of brown and a amber red, she smiled, not making him believe her for one second.
“ Nothing, its just homework”.
Brennan nodded, “ owe really…” he turned the screen so he could see and look at it. It was a video feed coming from the dojo. Shalimar and Scott were battling it out.
He nodded his head finally putting the pieces together.
The suddenly laughter in the morning, probably form one of them being on the floor. These two at the computer. Heck, if he went to the dojo to tell them. He would most likely be dragged into it.
He just nodded to them, there faces lighting up as they were allowed to continue.
Brennan carried on to the lab, Adam wanted to do a quick check, just to make sure he was fully back to normal.
Brennan woke up in his room, all the team around his bed. He tried to sit up, but was pushed down by all the members of the team.
