Rogue screamed in fury as she tore apart another sentinel, letting the mechanical pieces fall about her like rain. There were so many of them and she was growing weary of fending them off. Ripping off another head she glanced down to see how her friends were doing. Their small team had grown with the additions of Blink, Warpath, and Pyro. At the moment Blink was causing different dimensions to appear sending the sentinels off course. Warpath was blasting away thanks to a charger boost from Pyro. Both storm and Bobby were inside protecting Kitty as she contacted the Professor. And Logan, she glanced over, was about to be impaled.
Taking care of the sentinel near her quickly she flew towards Logan at top speed. "LO-" she cried calling out a warning before cold adamantium slid through her back and stomach. Gasping in surprise she looked down to see the sharp claws sticking from her abdomen, a memory of this happening once before resurfacing.
She looked past the claws as an anguished roar echoed through the air. Logan's piercing hazel eyes stared at her in horror and she knew that this was going to be the last time she would see him.
She screamed as the claws ripped away from her and she started to plummet. Grasping her abdomen she stopped her trajectory and turned towards the sentinel. Grabbing the arm she quickly ripped it off and used it to beat at the robot until it was in pieces. She panted holding the arm when suddenly she began falling, her powers failing her.
Logan caught her, lowering her to the ground and pressing his hand against her cheek, willing his mutation to heal her quickly. When Marie didn't feel the pull she smiled sadly and placed her hand over his. His eyes glanced up to hers and widened in panic. "It's not working. Marie turn it on." He pleaded.
She coughed tasting blood and felt her eyes prickle with tears. "I can't." she whispered the tears trickling over her cheeks.
"No." Logan gasped his eyes filling up. "There has to be a way." He held her tighter as she began to shake, shock setting in.
"There isn't, you know that." She chuckled as he shook his head angrily. "You're so stubborn. Logan just hold me."
Logan choked down a sob as he pulled her up against his chest lowering his forehead to hers. He was quiet for a moment before whispering, "I've always loved you Marie."
"And I have always loved you." She breathed against his mouth before pressing her lips softly to his. Logan kissed her back when suddenly she grew limp within his arms.
Logan opened his eyes to see Marie's peaceful face and felt his tears fall. He wiped them away as they fell upon her cheeks and sobbed holding her against his chest as the others ran towards them.
Author's Note: Just a quick little sad one-shot I made almost a year and a half ago after seeing Days of Future Past in theaters. I've always shipped Rogue and Logan and when I found out she had been cut from the movie I was greatly saddened and a bit angry as well. So since we never really found out in Logan's future what happened to Rogue before he travelled back in time, here is what I think did. I also choose not to accept the fact that she is still with Bobby after all this time. Ice Prick.
