X-men Evo Au

(A/n: I don't own. What if instead of being adopted Rogue was really Mystique and Irene's daughter by birth? What if she was never told until latent powers act up causing the big secret to be revealed? How will this affect everything? Set just before Turn of the Rogue. Femslash and a few bashings maybe.)

"Principal Darkholme? This is a surprise. You almost always eat lunch in your office." The drama teacher at Bayville High said raising an eyebrow at the school principal, Raven Darkholme otherwise known as Mystique, who had just sat at the only free seat at the table reserved for the school faculty and staff in the lunch room.

"I felt like eating out here for some reason." Raven answered her eyes flickering to the table in which the four Brotherhood boys sat waiting on the single Brotherhood girl to show up and back to the drama teacher faster than Pietro, aka Quicksilver, could run.

"You're choice. We were just talking about our home lives a little. How's your little girl doing by the way, Hendler?" The drama teacher asked one of the English teachers who merely swallowed his forkful of rice before answering.

"She's fine. Turned six this past Wendsday. During the party my wife decided to take her on a shopping spree and little Mary got separated from us in the mall." The English teacher, Hendler replied before eating another forkful of rice.

"Was she okay?" One of the Algebra teachers asked worriedly.

"She was fine. She got separated during a sale at JCPennies and somehow managed to wander into Hot Topic on her own. She ran into one of the students who had been shopping at the mall and the helpful student decided to stay with her and keep her entertained until we found her. I never would have thought of that girl as someone who would help out a little kid in need, especially one that had been wearing a pink and yellow sundress." Hendler replied drawing the entire staff tables attention to him instantly as well as some nearby students who were being nosy.

"Really? Which student was it? I'd give them an A in my class for doing that for poor little Mary." One of the History teachers asked raising both of her eyebrows at Hendler curiously.

"It was Rogue." Hendler said getting wide eyes and disbelieving looks from the rest of the teachers except for Raven who merely raised an eyebrow in surprise, not having heard of this from the stripe haired Brotherhood girl.

"Apparently Rogue needed to get away from the boys at the Brotherhood Mansion for a little while and decided to go shopping in Hot Topic. She ran across little Mary and decided to stay with and entertain her until we found her. When we found Mary and Rogue, Rogue had bought her ice-cream and the two of them were sitting down in one of the lesser visited areas of the mall while Rogue was singing to Mary. We need to get that girl in choir or in some musicals, she can sing! I don't mean sing as in 'hold-and-keep-a-note' sing, I mean 'sent-from-the-heavens-and-lost-her-wings' sing. I didn't know an Evanescence song could sound that good until I heard her singing it." Hendler said earning wide eyes and dropped jaws from teachers and students alike while Raven wasn't surprised at this bit; she knew the striped haired girl could sing like an angel having been the one to raise her after all.

"What happened afterwards?" Another English teacher asked with wide eyes since she didn't think Rogue was the singing type, or the type to help a little kid either.

"We found them and Mary told us about how Rogue had found her, gave her money to play a few of the little kids games in the arcade, played a few games with her, got her ice-cream, sang to her, and bought her a t-shirt Mary really liked. When we offered to pay her back for everything Rogue just waved it off dismissively and said that it wasn't a problem, she had actually enjoyed spending time with Mary. You should have seen Mary's face light up, it looked like she had been told that not only was it her birthday but Christmas as well. Mary had thrown her arms around Rogues waist in a hug and all but begged Rogue to be her new older sister and come to her next birthday. Mary wants to be just like Rogue now; I swear that girl is my daughters' new idol." Hendler said causing even more dropped jaws among the students since more of them were eavesdropping now.

"You should've seen the look on Rogues face. It looked like she had just been smacked upside the head with a steel pipe and she was just gapping like a fish out of water at Mary." Hendler said sounding amused now that he looked back and remembered how Rogue had reacted to that. This caused the teachers to try and stifle their snorts as they pictured the images in their heads, Raven being the most successful at stifling her snickers.

"Speaking of which, is Rogue really her name? I mean it's kind of a strange name to be given don't you think?" Another of the Algebra teachers causing all of the students within earshot to perk up since they thought the same about the mysterious Rogue while the teachers looked a little thoughtful at these, except Raven who knew Rogues real name.

"Nah. It's probably her nickname or something. What kind of parent would actually name their daughter Rogue, let alone let her live with four teenaged boys?" The other Algebra teacher asked, stating the obvious and making Raven roll her eyes subtly.

"Do you actually want me to answer that or is it rhetorical?" Raven asked speaking up for the first time since the conversation began and causing everyone who heard her to jump and swivel to look at her with wide eyes.

"What?" Raven asked raising an eyebrow at everyone that was staring at her with wide wild eyes, which included the Brotherhood boys who were barely a table away since the faculty liked to keep an eye on them.

"Sorry Principal Darkholme, you just sounded like Roguey for a minute there." Lance, aka Avalanche, said sighing with relief when he didn't see Rogue anywhere in front of him before tensing up when Fred, aka Blob, and Todd, aka Toad, stared behind him with wide horrified eyes.

"She's right behind me isn't she?" Lance asked causing the two boys to nod while Pietro was now cowering behind Raven who raised an eyebrow at him.

"I'm screwed aren't I?" Lance asked again, once again earning nods from everyone as he had yet to turn around to face Rogue himself.

"Ah'll say ya are. What have Ah told ya 'bout callin' me 'Roguey'?" Rogue herself asked from behind Lance while the whole cafeteria stopped to stare at what was going on, her southern drawl being the only one of its kind in the school. Lance was now a pasty white color as he turned slowly to face the irritated southern girl.

"N-Not to." Lance answered meekly while everyone, except the three other Brotherhood boys, was wondering why Lance seemed so frightened of the only Brotherhood girl.

"Dat's right Rocky an' yet ya called me dat. 'Xplain. Now." Rogue said her voice more neutral than anything else, but the one word orders caused all Brotherhood boys to pale even further and try and inch away from Rogue even more.

"Tro, back ta ya seat. Any of ya move 'fore ya answa me an' ya'll learn 'xcatly how Ah got some of mah ol' nicknames." Rogue said, obviously seeing what they were doing and putting a stop to it while the boys whimpered slightly. Pietro got back to his seat so quickly that those watching thought he might've teleported while Raven raised an eyebrow and looked faintly amused, remembering very clearly Rogues old nicknames and how she had gotten them.

"W-Which one?" Pietro asked weakly as he turned as pale as his hair at her devious smirk.

"Dragon fist Rogue." Rogue answered causing the four boys eyes to widen in terror before they whimpered and practically got on their knees in order to beg for forgiveness from the southern belle, even Ravens eyes were wide at the mention of Rogues old nickname.

"IcalledyouRogueycausePrincip alDarkholmesoundedlikeyoudid ,ididn'tknowyouwerebehindme,andcauseiforgottherules.I'msorryandwillneverdoitagainj ustpleasedon'thurtme!" Lance exclaimed faster than Pietro on a sugar high as he threw his hands up in order to protect his face in case Rogue decided to try and hit him or something.

"Again. Slowa dis time." Rogue ordered with narrowed eyes as she gazed down at the four boys kneeling before her as if she were some kind of goddess or something.

"I called you Roguey cause Principal Darkholme sounded like you did, I didn't know you were behind me, and cause I forgot the rules. I'm sorry and will never do it again just please don't hurt me!" Lance repeated at a normal speed without removing his arms from in front of his face just in case Rogue decided he made a good punching bag.

"Good boy. Ah'll let aht slahde dis time but ya call me dat 'gain an' ya gonna get aht dat goes fer all of ya, undastand?" Rogue asked petting the top of Lances head as if he were a dog instead of a teenaged boy that could cause earthquakes with his bare hands. Lance and the other three boys sighed in relief and nodded their heads rapidly, none of them being dumb enough to say anything about Rogue treating Lance like a dog.

"Good. Now get off of da floor ya morons. Ya don't know what's been on aht." Rogue said causing the four boys to stand up immediately. Before Rogue could even blink Todd had taken the tray of lunch food from her hands and dumped it in the trash, Fred had all but forced her to sit in the most comfortable seat at the table, Lance was thanking her for being so kind and forgiving and Pietro had ran off at top speeds to get her some better food.

"Here you go boss lady. School food isn't good enough so I got you something better." Pietro said speeding back into the room and setting down a plate of spaghetti straight from Italy in front of Rogue who had raised both her eyebrows at how the four boys were acting.

"You were saying something about her living with four teenage boys?" Raven asked the Algebra teacher who had mentioned Rogues living conditions with one eyebrow raised, looking amazingly like Rogue herself did.

"She has them wrapped around her pinkie finger." Hendler said smirking behind his hand as the four boys continued to treat Rogue as if she were a queen. Any further conversation was cut short by Ravens cellphone ringing, blaring the 'Sexy Naughty Bitchy' song before Raven answered it with a bright red face at all the looks she was getting while Rogue looked more amused than anything.

"Hello?" Raven answered the ice blue cell phone, doing her best to try and beat down her cherry red blush. There was frantic talking on the other end of the phone causing Raven to forget her embarrassment and the fact that almost the whole school was watching her and listening in on her every word.

"Ren…Ren…Irene! Calm down. Take a deep breath and then calmly tell me what has you frantic enough to call me in the middle of the school day." Raven said to the person on the other end of the phone after listening to rapid and frantic chatter for a minute, no one noticing Rogues eyebrows shoot upwards and her eyes narrow at Raven.

"What? One of your 'feelings'? How bad? I'm serious Irene. The first time you got one of your 'feelings' Anna fell out of a willow tree and broke her leg and that was a mild one. That bad? Are you sure? Last time you got a 'feeling' that bad Anna was hit by a car and comatose for two weeks. Yeah, she's right here. We're in the middle of the school cafeteria Irene. The most dangerous thing that I can see right now is a few of the football players working on a chemistry experiment of some type." Raven said her eyes widening before narrowing as they swept across the cafeteria, lingering a little longer on some jocks doing chemistry experiments a table away from Rogue and Rogue herself.

"…Yes, I'll keep an eye out. Anything happens and I'm getting her to the hospital faster than Quicksilver on a sugar high. Alright…alright. I'll let you know if anything happens. See you in a few hours dear…you too. Bye." Raven said her eyes softening somewhat at the end of the call before she hung up and snapped her cell phone shut with a sharp 'snap' sound.

"Sorry about that. My wife Irene sometimes gets 'feelings' when somethings about to happen to our daughter Anna. Since Anna is here at Bayville she called me so that I could be on the lookout." Raven explained to the other teachers whose jaws dropped at this.

"WIFE?!" All the teachers and more than half of the students asked in shocked harmony, causing both of Rogues and Ravens eyebrows to shoot upwards into their hairline.

"Yes, I am married to another woman. Is there a problem with that?" Raven asked her voice colder than Antarctica in the winter time.

"No it just took us by surprise is all. Hey, Rogue? Why didn't you look shocked just now?" Lance asked trying desperately to change the subject and failing horribly.

"Ah grew up wahth two mothas so it ain't such a big deal ta me." Rogue said shrugging her pale shoulders uncaringly; she honestly saw nothing wrong with a female loving another female but that could just be a side effect of growing up with two mothers instead of a mother and father.

"Oh." Lance said inelegantly as he blinked slightly, not expecting the straight forward answer he had been given.

"That explains why she's so screwed up." One of the jocks doing a chemistry experiment said snorting, and causing the other jocks to snicker in amusement and agreement.

"Don't let eitha 'ne of mah mothas hear ya say dat, last time some'ne said dat in front of dem he ended up in Critical condition at de hospital. Dat was just what 'ne of mah mamas did an' not onlah is she de peaceful 'ne she's also blind." Rogue said with a smirk on her painted blue lips as Raven hid a smirk behind one of her hands since she clearly remembered Irene doing that to one idiotic jock who had insulted their daughter for having two mothers instead of one mother and one father.

"Here freak, this might help you be somewhat normal." One of the crueler jocks said throwing his vial of chemistry experiment straight into Rogues eyes, not thinking it would do more than sting her while Raven seemed alarmed at this as she stood up quickly to stop the boy. Everyone was shocked and terrified when Rogue grabbed at her eyes and screamed in pain.

"Rogue!" Raven yelled running to the screaming Goths side while Lance and Todd were beating up the jock who threw the liquid onto her and Fred was standing guard in front of Rogue in case someone decided to throw anything else at the downed girl.

"Rogue!" Raven yelled shaking the now unconscious girls uncovered shoulders slightly, not noticing that her powers weren't being drained by the Goth girls' powers.

"Anna? Anna!" Raven yelled forgoing Rogues nickname and instead using her real name as she continued to shake the downed girls shoulder while Pietro was calling for an ambulance. Raven searched for a pulse and felt her heart stop for an agonizing moment when she couldn't feel anything and realized that the pale girl wasn't breathing.

"Hell no. I'm not losing my baby girl." Raven muttered as she began doing CPR on the downed girl while Lance and Todd finished pounding the crap out of the idiot jock that looked like he was in need of an ambulance, not that anyone cared about that since they were too busy crowding around Rogue as close as they could get without incurring Freds wrath.

"How is she?" Toad asked worriedly as he hopped up to Freds side but not Rogues since he didn't want to disturb Ravens work.

"She's not breathing and she barely has a pulse. Pietro! Tell those medics to hurry up or they'll be the ones in need of an ambulance!" Raven said not stopping her work before she began to do mouth to mouth for a minute before going back to doing compressions. After another moment of tense silence of Raven doing CPR on the Goth, Rogue began to breathe again although it was a little labored and she was still out cold. Raven sat back and let out a sigh of relief before standing in front of Rogue protectively when the cafeteria doors flew open to admit two medics with a stretcher in between them.

"You're suspended from now until the School Board decides whether or not to have you expelled for nearly murdering a fellow student because she was different. The rest of the school day is cancelled. Lance, I know you and the boys want to go to the hospital as well but first I need you all to go pick Irene up from the airport since she should be touching down right about now and bring her to the hospital. Her plane is the only one coming in from Mississippi." Raven said to the whole school, looking dead at the bloody jock when she mentioned his punishment before turning to the Brotherhood boys as she gave them their orders, before she turned and followed the medics out and to the hospital, not even noticing the effect her words had on everyone there especially Xavier's students.
