Streak walked down the corridor holding Emma's hand. Once they reached his room he opened the door. It was a typical guys room as far as Streak was concerned. There was a large flat panel TV, a DVD player next to it and a XBOX. He hadn't gotten the XBOX 360 yet but he was saving up the money for it. There was a desk where his laptop and accessories sat, and a closet with drawers full of clothes. He didn't have any food in his room because the kitchen always had enough to keep him from being hungry. The room was pretty clean, considering Streak had cleaned it a few days ago. He managed to scrounge up a queen size bed that was comfortable enough for any picky person.

Unknown to everyone in the mansion he had stolen most of his current belongings. Streak had no intention of letting anyone in on the secret, except for maybe Emma if she wanted to know. "So, what do you think?" He asked leading her inside and shutting the door behind them. "It's enough to call home. I find everything I need, except for food of course, in here. No one can get in here. I changed the locks and added a few features of my own. It took awhile but it's safe enough to keep anyone I don't want in out." He said this last part mainly so that Emma would feel safe where she was. He waited for her opinion.

Emma looks around and set down on the bed. Emma looked at the ground."It looks nice"She said softly but alittle sad. She then laid down on the bed upset. Tears rolling down her face. As she hasn't been alone with a man before and it scared her. She couldn't look at Streak. She tried to wipe her tears away so Streak coudln't see the tears.

Streak was glad she liked it. He smiled at her until he noticed her tone of voice. She sounded sad and he wasn't sure why. "What's wrong? No one can get you in here. I'm here and you'll be safe." he said to her. He walked over towards the bed and saw her wipe her face like she was wiping tears away. He sat down next to her on the bed a little nervously. Likewise, Streak had never been alone with a woman, so he was naturally nervous and a little scared. He mainly didn't want to leave her alone. Not tonight and not ever again. He looked at Emma in a carring way and trying to be as nice to and understanding as he could be. He just couldn't understand why she was crying so much.

Emma looked up at Streak as some tears rolled down her face. She then hugs Streak tightly."I'm sorry. It's just I miss my mother and father. And plus I have never been alone with a man like this before."Emma said in tears. Emma's mother was a mutant like Emma. Her father was human. Her father didn't care what the other humans thought. But it got him and her mother both killed.

"Don't worry about it." Streak said wrapping his arms around her once again. He had no idea that she hadn't been in this type of situation and neither had Streak. He hadn't told her that so he felt it was a good time to tell her this. "Just so you know, neither have I." He thought about what he just said. It sounded a little weird and brought a smile to his face. "What I mean is that I haven't been with a women like this either." He said. He kissed her forehead lightly and then said, "We don't have to do anything if you're uncomfortable. We could just sleep." He said. It was true, he was tired but he wanted her to be comfortable around him no matter where they were and he didn't want to rush her into anything.

Emma soon was asleep in Streak's arms. Emma was tried and it showed. The tears on her face went away. She was in a deep sleep. She felt right in Streak's arms. She didn't know if she would sleep without the nightmares this time. She never did tell him about the tortureing of her at the camps. She still wasn't over it. But she might not never get over it.

As soon as Emma had fallen asleep in Streak arms he carefully picked her up. He thought that it would be a good idea if he didn't let go of her and maybe she wouldn't have nightmares. He moved through the room and flicked off the lights with his foot. He gently walked back over to his bed. Being very careful he pulled the sheets back and gently sat down on the bed. He maneuvered himself so that both of them would be on the bed. He laid her down and pulled the covers over both of them. During this entire time Streak never stopped holding Emma. He was also soon asleep with his body pressed against hers and his arms wrapping around her.

Emma soon after a few hours woke up screaming and sweat rolling down her face. Mirrors where breaking in the room long with the windows. The nightmare where about her being tortured at the camps. She was seeing images of people from the camps in the room and it made her scream louder. Her sonic scream went threw out the mansion. The glass from the windows and mirrors where flying threw the air.

Again Streak woke up startled with pain in his ears. He gripped his ears trying to block out the sound. It wasn't working again. "Emma! Emma!" He tried yelling over her screams. He didn't know if she could hear him. He took his hands away from his ears and grabbed her face and pulled her face so that her eyes looked straight into his. He put one finger against her lips "Shh. It's ok. It's ok. I've gotch you. Your safe." He didn't know if she could hear him over the screams but he had to try. His ears hurt so much that he couldn't feel them anymore and he wasn't even sure he would be able to hear. But he had to calm her down.

Soon Emma was hit by the flying glass right in the back and the screaming stop but she wasn't breathing. As other piece of glass hit her on her left shoulder. She soon fell and wasn't moving. There was glass all over the room. Some was on the floor some on the bed. But a few pieces where in Emma. Emma's body just laid there not moving at all and there wasn't a plus.

Streak acted quickly. He covered himself in silver quickly began surveying her. He leaned her forward so that he could look at where all the class was. She wasn't moving and that was not a good sign. With quick movements he pulled the glass out of her shoulder. He then touched her shoulder, where he had pulled the glass out of, with both hands and lightly moved his hands around her shoulder. As he moved his hands around her shoulder silver spread from his hands and covered the wounds, stopping the blood flow after a few minutes. There was only one way that Streak could get to the shards of glass on her back. He knew he needed to move quickly. He quickly removed the glass sticking out and threw them to the ground with the other shards. He then removed her shirt and repeated the procedure covering her back in silver. He checked her wounds to make sure they had stopped bleeding and hoped that it would work. Streak had never done this to another person before so he wasn't sure how well it would work on someone else.

Emma soon came to screaming in pain. But it wasn't as long the scream this time. Emma was having trouble breathing."Streak I'm sorry. I didn't mean to."Emma said weakly as she breathing was getting wrose. Emma looked at Streak scared out of her mind. She didn't want to leave him after getting him. She knew that everyone must of her heard her scream. She wonder why they didn't come running.

"Stop apologizing. You've done nothing wrong. Except maybe weaken my hearing, but that's okay." He stuck a finger in his ear and wiggled it around. He could tell she was having trouble breathing. Her breathing seemed shallow and rough. He figured that was from the pain and perhaps even the loss of blood. The last thing he wanted was for her to pass out. "Stay calm. Breath." Streak said looking her in the eyes. "Focus okay. Don't pass out. I need you to talk to me." He was going to ask a question that he wanted to know since this first started. Streak turned around for a second and flipped on the lamp next to his bed. Once he turned around he said, "What's going on? Why do you keep waking up in the middle of the night? What are the nightmares about?" His voice held nothing more than concern and caring. "I wont judge. But if you tell me maybe I can help." After he said this he retracted the silver covering his body and looked at the silver covering her bare shoulder, chest and back to make sure the wounds hadn't opened up again. After he was sure this wasn't the case he picked up her shirt off the bed and said handing it back to her, "Here it's got blood on it and torn but it still works. If you don't want that I've got shirts you can have. They might be big for you but whatever."

Emma started to close her eyes. She felt sleeply and it was showing."I can't stay away I am so tired."She said as her eyes started to close. She was still having trouble breathing. She started to drift in and out of consciousness. She didn't know why she felt so sleeply but she did."I'm so sorry I need to sleep."She said softly.

"You've lost a lot of blood. I did my best to stop it but I wasn't fast enough." Streak said to her. He repositioned himself so that his back was against the headboard of his bed. He put a pillow behind his back and made sure that if he did fall a sleep he wouldn't fall over again. He held her against his chest and put a hand on her head so that she could fall asleep against him. Streak then wrapped his arms around her body, pulled the covers up to them and said, "I've gotcha. I'll stay awake and protect you, you can fall asleep." He was tired as well and waited for her to fall asleep.
