This story revolves around Khalil's POV after he leaves for Akashic Valley. Because there are not enough of these here is another Jennifer and Khalil fanfiction.
I was so drowsy. The force field around the cage felt like weights. I felt the cage rising to reveal the same crazy lady that's holding me hostage and dare I say Khalil and some woman? I think I'm losing it. Maybe my new weed man laced my shit. Was this the same Khalil that had met with me on the roof or was it really him OR was it PainKiller? I made eye contact and saw him mouth something. I heard a beep and it was like the sound turned on.
" Dmitri, welcome our guests," the lady said.

This figure appeared in a dark corner of the room. She sent this guy out like she was unleashing an animal. I could see him shifting forms mimicking everyone in the room. I've been around shapeshifters but I had never seen this before. With every shift, he kept a smirk on his face. He shifted into the woman with Khalil. His voice was distorted but the undertones were feminine. The longer I watched Khalil I knew it wasn't him. This was definitely Painkiller. I was both happy and terrified.
————-Khalils POV———
" You'd fight a woman, Cher?" Dmitri teased taking in Priscilla's voice.
Painkiller and Priscilla smiled at it each other. The joke was Painkiller never discriminated. He and Priscilla would fight each other for recreation. They both charged at Dmitri. He blocked their initial blows. Mya watched from her in-house balcony pleased.

We continued to fight. I could feel PK getting weaker. Dmitri seeming to have the upper hand knocked PK out, bringing me to the forefront. This infuriated Priscilla as she looked over at me trying to get my bearings. Her eyes glossed over as she went into a trance. She was trying to gain control over Dmitri's thoughts. " Pris! No!" I yelled. Dmitri started shifting again taking on different forms as Priscilla tried to telepathically control him. The longer she was in the trance the weaker she was becoming. "Priscilla! Stop!" I pleaded as I saw her being brought to her knees. I tried shaking her to break the trance. I turned towards the door seeing Thunder appear.
———-Jennifer's POV——- I saw Anissa come through the door. She Thunder clapped catching Dmitri off guard and causing him to fall to the ground and pass out.

She looked up and saw Mya. She looked uneasy as she saw Dmitri fall. She disappears from sight while Anissa tried to find the back way to her balcony. I heard some crashing in the back. I hated I couldn't help. Since Dmitri was out and Anissa was in the back, Khalil came over to the cage.
"I'm gonna get you out of there".
He banged up against the glass to test the thickness. He looked around the room to see what he could use to break it. There was an ax behind some glass on the nearby wall. He punched it out and grabbed it. He ran over to the cage and motioned me to move back. He swung back and hit the glass with force, slightly denting the front. The more he hit the more the glass cracked. I could feel the force with every blow. As the glass cracked I started to gain more of my energy back. The front wall of the cage glass shatters and he reaches his hand in to grab mine. I take his hand and hop out. We look at each other briefly before Anissa runs back out.

"Where's Mya?" Khalil asks. Anissa replying defeated. "She got away" Our attention goes to Priscilla as she collapses on the floor. We all rush over to her. Anissa goes into doctor mode checking out the scene. " I have to take her back to our lab, I tried to warn her not to use her powers on Dmitri since she's not stable enough to use them on shapeshifters. You guys better go." Khalil warns.
I wasn't sure how I'd feel the next time I saw him. I didn't think it would be like this but with our track record why wouldn't it be. He always felt just out of reach. Like something was always there. I knew no matter what he cared for me and I cared for him too. Why else would he have shown up? I hope Priscilla will be okay. That was another thing. There was always someone getting hurt around us.
I wish he and I could have talked longer. To see how he's been or how life is for him now. How do people grow close to someone, know each other for years and just cease to exist in each other's lives? We all start off as strangers but once you get to know someone in the way I've gotten to know Khalil, It's hard to imagine his absence being indefinite.
"Jen, let's go NOW!".Before I could say anything else Anissa whisked me away.
