Christian's head fell back onto the pillow, "Thank god," he cried, "I'm tired of looking like a redheaded King Ramses..."

"See you guys!" Iada said and made her way back to Shrapnel's room, the door was locked again so she ported inside and instantly collasped on the bed and fell asleep.
"Five bucks said they did it," Amelia said out of the blue.

Christian looked at her and laughed, "Seriously? I don't think even Iada is that desperate! How do you figure?"

"Because, Shrapnel's mind is open like a book, and Sinister beat the crap out of him this morning, is that a good reason?" Amelia sighed.

He raised in eyebrow in mild shock, "Really? And how does he feel about the whole thing?"

"Confused, then he was comfortable, maybe a little trust, angry when he had to leave her in the morning, and then pain, and finally he was emotionless again after Sinister was done with him," Amelia, "Shame though, he would have been an awesome teammate."

Christian sshrugged, and shook his head, "I don't see Shrapnel as being the emotional type anyway. He's too cranky..."
Sean didn't go out on his rounds as commanded. He sat on the roof, alone, carelessly fanning the streets, unable to stop thinking about the night prior. He smiled as Iada's face crossed his mind.

"I think he's had a pretty screwed up life is what. Not to mention who knows what Sinister did to the poor boy," Amelia sighed.
Iada scratched her ear trying to get the ringing noise out, someone must have been talking about her or thinking, she forgot how the saying went. She closed her eyes and threw the blanket over her and fell into a light sleep.

Christian shook his head solemnly, "You know, the funny thing about him, is that I'm not so sure Sinister has really done much to him. I think he's just so messed up in the head, he doesn't know whats up anymore..."

"Great two loonies, wonder how they're kids will end up," Amelia said rolling her eyes.
Iada's eyes snapped open unable to get any sleep. With an irratated sigh she ported to the roof for some fresh air. She saw Shrapnel sitting nearby and went over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck, "Lonely?' she asked.

Sean felt his air rush out of his lungs, "Always," he said, rubbing his head against her, "Sleep well?"

"You bet," Iada said and crawled into Shrapnel's lap, "Did you? I kind of flail around in my sleep sometimes," she asked rubbing her nose against the bottom of Shrapnel's chin.

He shrugged, "Eh... I usually don't sleep well as it is. Ecspecially when I'm in bed with a beautiful lady..."

"Wait someone else was in the bed with us, Shrapnel you cad, you didn't introduce us," Iada grinned touching his neck and pulled back her hand as healing energy sparked from her hand and flowed down Shrapnel's neck and began healing something.
"What the F***," Iada said ripping of Shrapnel's shirt and looking at slightly burned places and bruises all over his torso, "Who did this," Iada said her eyes dark, and her voice low and grim.

Sean jumped to his feet, and covered his chest lazily with his hand, "No one. It's not your business," he exclaimed, "Don't concern yourself." His face was paranoid, and his eyes large in fear.

Iada jumped to her own feet her face filled with fury, "Like hell it isn't, I'm going to go kill Sinister!" Iada fumed energy forming in her hands and eyes as she made her way towards the door.

Sean reached back, not moving, and wrapped an arm around Iada, halting her, "Stop. It doesn't concern you. It concerns me, and my failures to follow orders. Don't do something I'll regret."

Iada struggled against his grip, and if she wasn't so angry she would have looked comical. Finally she went limp and looked up at Shrapnel, "You're impossible, you know that," she sighed.

Sean nodded, staring ahead and not at her, "Yes... I do."
Within, Sinister could feel Shrapnels emotions changing. He shook his head, and realized the boys newfound emotions for this girl had become a liability. And Shrapnel would be punished for weakness.

"Iada turned herself completely so Shrapnel was holding her with one arm and she could nestle herself against his chest, "Mmmm, you smell good," she mentioned closing her eyes.
