Revised 8/15/10
-Somwhere in Brazil-
My body aches, everything is so dark, and I wouldn't be able to tell if my eyes are really open if it wasn't for a 1 inch line of light from under the door. The source of the light is fire, i can tell by the way the light moves, is almost as if it was dancing. That movement is the only thing that keeps my brain functioning is the only movement i see besides the times when they come for me.
I don't know how long it has been. There are no windows to tell if it's night or day. I haven't seen the sun or the moon, or anything but this four walls or the ones in the experimentation room, in what feels like an eternity. My hair was cut to my neck when they first brought me here, and now is down to the end of my back so that tells me is being a long time.
Argh! How my body aches! My head is spinning and I think my ankle is broken.
Will anybody find me? Ever?
It's being a long time since I dream about him coming for me. It has being a long time, *sigh*
When I finally try to change my posture and sit, I realize that my hands are still bound by the shackles and they are connected to a chain at the wall. Ridiculous! Is not like I have the strength to escape. How many times have I tried! But is to no avail.
I press my back against the wall, but this doesn't bring any more comfort to my aching body than the previous position.
Do you even remember me? And with that thought I close my eyes and wait for a dream that will never become reality.
-Manchester county-
His footsteps going down the hall, his confident and strong stride just like the smile on his face was attracting the attention of every single girl in the hallway. All the girls would whisper around him, flashing him a smile first and a very lustful look, but this wasn't anything new for the Cajun resident officially labeled as the bad boy of "Mutant High." with the same smile he got on the elevator and press the bottom for the lower levels, where he knew the x-men would get real happy with this news.
-Conference room-
"Ororo are you sure he will be here" said a blond man sitting on the table
"Bobby, of course he will come" said the weather goddess
"I'm with storm on this one iceboy, the Cajun has never fail when it comes to missions" said the wolverine while smoking his cigar
"I don't know wolverine, he is not exactly typical x-men material" said bobby
"Like I am? I wouldn't even be here if it wasn't because of..." wolverine stopped abruptly and looked to the floor
"Because of Rogue? She hasn't called yet I presume" said storm moving her hand to Logan's shoulder. "I'm sure she is having a good time in London, after all it was her choice to learn new ways of controlling her powers after they came back"
"That's the only reason why I haven't dragged her back" said Logan smoking his cigar again
"But it has been almost a year? Without calling? She must be having a lot of fun" said bobby with a sour look on his face.
Ororo sat between bobby and Logan and let out a breath she didn't know she was holding "bobby..."
She started when the sound of the door interrupted her thoughts
"Everyone can relax! Gambit has arrived" * said the guy with is flashing smile and a bow
"Did you get it gumbo?" asked wolverine
"But of course, who you think you are talking to Mon ami?" said gambit with a mock hurt looked
"Where is it Remy?" reply storm while standing from her chair
"Here it is" giving storm a CD "Everything is there, blue prints, staff names, schedule, and for what I saw it is definitely an experimentation facility. All the medical stuff that they ship there is not normal"
"We don't need to wait anymore storm, it's time to get the team" said Logan "I'm not letting any of these places open for business"
"Hey, Iceboy! Why don't you call the team, non?" said the Cajun
"I've told you before that it's iceman, MAN not BOY"
"Stop this nonsense!" said Storm looking at them " Bobby please get Hank to help you set the team tell him to have the med bay ready we might bring some injured and every X-man is to meet us at the hangar ready to go, I'll do the briefing then. All of you go get ready, we are leaving in one hour" said the new team captain and headmistress
"Yes Mrs. Monroe" said bobby getting more serious
===1 hour and 45 minutes later, Brazil, Black bird cabin===
"Alright listen up" said the weather goddess "for today mission we have to objectives. First: is the successful retrieving of all the mutants in that facility and the second one will be destroying any trace of the place. Any questions?" silence followed her statement "good. Team Read; you are in charge of the ground. You are to bring those mutants back, captain: Wolverine team members: Gambit, Shadowcat, Nightcrawler. Team Blue, we have to watch their backs and help for the destruction, you will follow me: Havok, iceman, magma."
"Gambit will place the bomb in the main computer room so when he give you the signal that means you have 20 minutes to get the hell away from this place" said wolverine looking at the team following his words was a collective nod "alright let's do this."
Inside the facility, team red had decided to each take a floor to cover more ground. Wolverine was in level 1, where most of security man would be. Shadowcat had level 2 where most of the computers and technological development was located, with her abilities she would be able to copy information and destroy the system after. Nightcrawler was on the underground floor with gambit. That's where the holding cells where located as well as the main computer.
"Ok my fury friend you check the cells and I will place the bomb on the computer. Ok?" said gambit to Nightcrawler
"ja, I'll teleport dem to the blackbird" he answered while teleporting both of the to the main computer room.
Two guard where looking at the monitors but it was easy for them to knock them out.
While looking at the monitors after Nightcrawler left Remy saw something that wasn't on the blue prints of the building.
"What is in that room? Where is that?" entering a couple of commands Remy was able to find the location of the room. And placing the explosives to detonate in 20 minutes he left to find the dark room on the monitors.
When he finally reached the room he smiles at the idea of a locked door ever becoming an obstacle on getting where he wanted to go. With the skills of a thief he picked the lock and opened the door. Inside nothing was visible, he grab a playing card from his coat and holding it between two fingers it light up the room in a bright magenta shade.
What Remy wasn't expecting to find was a lonely girl bound to a wall by shackles her hair covering her face.
He came closer and notice that she was still breathing
"Hey, fille, can you hear me?" He said to her in a soothing voice.
he squat right in front of her and started to look her over, he notice all the bruises on her exposed legs and arms, she was covered only by a white gown that looked more like an oversized shirt for her tiny body.
"I'm here to help you" -no response
"I'm going to take off that thing from your hands 'k?-again no response
He touched the tip of his fingers to the lock on her shackles and with a "pop" sound they dropped to the floor.
"Chere, please tell me you're alright"
He moved her hair from her face and her eyes open and he stayed paralyzed.
In his entire life as a professional thief Remy has never seen more beautiful emeralds than the ones staring back at him right this moment.
Catching his breath again he asked "chere, my name is gambit, I'm here to help you. Do you remember your name?" he pause waiting for her response. She closed her eyes and he almost gave up hope of her answering. But her eyes opened and if a pin dropped he wouldn't have heard her raspy one word whisper.
"...Rogue" she closed her eyes again and he wasn't sure if he imagined her talk or if she actually did.
ok please review!
