Never shall innocent blood be shed, yet the blood of the wicked shall flow like a river. The Three shall spread their blackened wings and be the vengeful striking hammer of God.~The Boondock Saints

Violent shivers racked Emma's slender body as she walked down the street.She pulled her leather coat tight around her and pushed her now drenched hair out of her eyes.
"Sure guys, I'll go out into the rain and get the pizza," she grumbled to herself as she set the cardboard box on the roof.
As she stood there fishing through her purse for her keys, she got this odd feeling that she was being watched. She opened her door and slid inside. Her hands shook as she tried to put them in the ignition. Feelings she didn't understand were filtering in from someone else.
"Get out of the car!" yelled a gruff voice from outside the car.
Emma's heart sank into the pit of her stomach as she saw nothing but a gun barrel pressed to the window. She unlatched the door and slid out of the car. She looked at the man as she tried to filter out the massive waves of hatred that were coming from him. She gathered her strength and launched a psi blast at him.
"Nice try, sweetie," he exclaimed after he phased out and her blast passed through him.
Emma looked up and down the street hoping that she would see someone familiar, someone who would help.
"There's no one here," he whispered in her ear.
"What do you want?" she asked.
"To make you pay," he replied grabbing her arm.
Realization dawned on her as she looked at him one more time. It had only been a week since the first time they had met. He had threatened her for convincing his Psionic girlfriend to enter the underground to escape him. He pulled her into a darken alley as she tried to quiet the madness in her head. She was strong enough to make him squirm, she should have been able to make him stop, to leave her alone but the images she was seeing had her frozen to the ground. Leaving her helpless as he raised his shotgun to her. Then there was a flash as the bullet came soaring towards her, then nothingness.

Brooklyn Whittaker looked down at the unconscious girl and shrugged.
"What are we going to do with her?" she asked.
"Well," exclaimed Tink Monroe "We'll have to take her back to the house until she wakes up."
She lifted the girl up and started walking.
"What about him?" asked Kat Jenkins as she stared at the lifeless body.
"Get the gun, leave him," yelled Tink over her shoulder.
Kat and Brooklyn rolled the guy on his side and grabbed the small gun that laid underneath him. Kat smiled at Brooklyn when she saw the younger girl swipe his wallet.
"What?" she asked "Not like he's gonna need it."
Kat reached over and affectionately touseled Brooklyn's multi colored curls.
"Come on Kid," she exclaimed "Let's get the hell out of here."
"Sounds good to me," replied Brooklyn.

"Emma?" asked Jesse "Where the heck are you? We're starving."
Shalimar looked at Jesse as he tried to get Emma to answer him.
"Aww...Come on Em, I know you're mad because we made you get the pizza." he exclaimed.
He looked at Shalimar when silence answered him. Shalimar's heart sank into her stomach.
"Emma?" she asked now speaking into her own com-link.
"What's going on?" Brennan asked as he walked into the living room.
"We can't get a hold of Emma," Shalimar said.
"I'll go to the lab and see if I can track her from there," Jesse exclaimed.
