Barefoot and Uh Pregnant?
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the xmen. I just own the story plot. :)
It had been almost exactly a year since she stepped on these exact steps. It wasn't like she had a choice though, her powers were acting all sorts of crazy since she had become pregnant, and without him around to counteract them, they were haywire. She needed help badly, and the only place to get said help, was the place that she had called home once. They were going to flip out on her when they realized she was pregnant. She hadn't meant to leave in the middle of the night, but everyone was afraid of her after she had absorbed Ms. Marvel. And the fact when she became stressed other powers would resurface. She knocked as soft as she could that way she wouldn't break the door. Warren opened the door, not recognizing the girl on the other side as anyone familiar. "Can I help you with something?" he asked politely while moving aside and allowing her in. She was absolutely beautiful with her side swept red hair and white bangs. It was an unearthly beauty she held. "Uhh, Can Ah talk to tha professor if he's here," she managed to stutter out. This guy was staring at her all love sick, it seemed. Not another one, she thought as she rolled her eyes.
Rogue waved her hands in the guys face, while he snapped back to reality. "Let me escort the way Ms?" he questioned holding his arm out, hoping she'd get the idea and take his arms. He wasn't lacking in the female department or in getting a date, but he definetly wanted her. He was getting on her nerves at this point. "Look, Ah don't know who you are, but Ah certainly ain't touching you, giving you mah info or anything else. Ah was trying to be polite, cause this ain't my home no more, but your starting to piss me off. So either ya go get the professor, or Ah call to him myself." Rogue's voice was starting to elevate a bit hoping to get her point across to the pretty boy in front of her. Warren Worthington a.k.a Angel couldn't believe how rude this girl who now that he looked at her couldn't of been more than 19 was. Finally his eyes sliding down, he noticed her protuding bump. Oh, oh she's pregnant. I wonder who here knocked her up. The professor is not going to be happy about this.
"No need to get upset now, I will go fetch the professor for you." Warren said as he let his wings raise to fly to the top floor. Hmm, an angel, how befitting for such a pompous ass Rogue thought. Not much as changed around here either, everything looks the same as it did when I left. Tears started to flood her eyes and she wiped them away, no need for these tears Anna, she told herself. Stupid hormones, getting me all worked up. "How can I help you miss," the professor started out without even seeing Rogue quite yet. "Rogue", he loudly exclaimed. "What happened to you, where did you go?" He was so startled to see her. She had disappeared without a trace, no longer traceable by Cerebro or any of the telepathic minds he had in the mansion. Upon further inspection he realized she was also pretty heavily pregnant and in flip flops?. For once he was flabberghasted," Uh Rogue," he gestured to her stomach, how did this happen?"
"Well Professor, it's when two people decide they are going to have," Rogue started. "Wait, say no more, I have younger ears in the household who do not need to hear the birds and bees. Where have you been this whole time? And your powers, are they now undercontrol?" He asked her. "Well thats tha thing, I was controlling it pretty well with tha help of mah husband... But something bad happened, and Ah have no idea where he is. My powers are starting to go beserk. Hes a mutant too, Professor. His energy kinda keeps mine in balance while Ah am pregnant. I don't know what to do" while breaking down into sobs on his legs. "Ah'm scared." He patted her back softly while trying to comfort her. She was always quiet while she lived here, overwhelmed and confused because her powers were uncontrollable and unstable. "Hey Bub, I swear I smell Rogue in the mansion, any clue as to why," Logan started to say coming down the stairs before looking up and actually seeing her at the Professor's feet. Logan was like a father figure to her when she was living here. One of the very few that weren't petrified of her powers and thought she was a leper. He bounded down the stairs sweeping his daughter figure into his arms, all the while she sobbed, " Ah'm sorry, Ah didn't know what to do than, Ah was scared that Ah'd kill someone else, and people weren't treating me right. Ah just couldn't stay." The sobs were coming out choked and so loud it was rousing people from their classrooms, until Logan looked let out a roar that would even scare the king of the jungle," Get back into your fuc.. damn classrooms NOW!"
Ororo at all the racket and hearing Logan acting like a maniac came out from her office. Logan never acted like that unless it had to do with Rogue(his adopted daughter). Not many people actually knew that he had adopted her privately. Walking around the corner, she could see Logan holding a familiar person in his arms, rocking her back and forth. Is that? She thought to herself. "What is going on out here?" Rogue looked up to see Ororo staring back at her. She was sure she looked terrible after all the sobbing, her black makeup running down her face. Rogue slowly stood up, holding her belly, attempting to balance herself. Logan was holding her hand to help her up, of course she had her gloves on her as protection since she knew that she was going to coming here. "Oh my," Ororo let out a gasp as her hand lightly touched her mouth. "Rogue, your pregnant, my dear?" it was stated as a slight question and a statement at the same time. "How? Where have you been for this past year?" Ororo angrily said.
Rogue couldn't help but look down in shame. "Look Ah know ya'll curious, but Ah'd rather not talk about everything thats going on out in the open, we have an audience and Ah ain't willing to explain my business to everyone." Rogue sniffled and wiped her eyes. "Yes, classes are over for the day, and curiousity has everyone watching us." The professor stated. " We need to move this to my office right now. "Look, I told you guys like I seen Rogue down here," Kitty Pryde pointed right at her from the hallway with all of Rogue's ex classmates and ex boyfriend standing behind her. In a poof of blue black smoke she was gone, "Well that was definitely new, I didn't know Rogue had that power." Ororo said. "She doesn't Storm," Logan quipped, "That was Nightcrawler's powers. She absorbed him on accident a few years ago." "Come, Let's adjourn to the office, I am sure she is in there." The Professor started to say while wheeling away.
Rogue was pacing the office back and forth waiting for everyone to come up here. She hadn't met to teleport, but she was stressed and wanted to get away from everyone quickly and thought how awesome it'd be to just be there. Ah don't think that smoke is good for ya and the burning through her fingertips was starting to give her the heebie jeebies. The door opened and she looked back down and the fire was gone. With a deep heavy sigh, she shook her hand back and forth to kinda shake it off. "Please, have a seat Rogue, and go ahead and let us know what you need." The professor started off. "Well when Ah left, Ah was so scared. Ah just absorbed Ms. Marvel... Ah couldn't control her powers or anyone else's. Everyone was coming out their boxes ya helped me build, Professor. Everyone was treating me like Ah was a leper. That Ah was diseased. No one but Logan came around me and Kurt. And the only reason he ever did was cause he found out that Ah'm his sister by blood. Ah had to go. Ah need to see if I could figure things out on my own. Ah left and started traveling south, Ah ran into someone Ah knew, and he helped me figure out my powers. For awhile, Ah wasnt absorbing people anymore on accident, only if Ah thought about it. Well Ah ended up following him home, he went through alot, helping me. Ah always had feelings for him, but just didnt think or give him a chance." She gestured down to her growing belly," Obviously ya'll can guess the rest, we got hitched and now well," she laughed. "Ah don't need to explain that part. But a week ago, he left for a job, and he never came home. Well mah powers aren't controllable while Ah'm pregnant. All these psyches are coming out, and random powers are interferring with every day life. His power kinda negated mine with him around. Ah need your help to find him." she started to sniffle. "Ah miss him so much ya'll don't understand."
"Well, we need to know the identity of said mutant before I can even do anything to help you Rogue." The professor started to say. "Promise ya won't start yelling Logan?" Rogue's fearful eyes looked at him. "If Ah gotta use cerebro myself Ah will, but Ah won't have ya'll flipping out about this and yelling at me. Ah can't take it. Logan's face seemed to take on a psycho freaked out look, who the fuck would piss me off that much. There was only one person he could think of that his Anna knew that would make him crazy. He'd gut the fucker if it was really him. "Logan ya gotta promise, ya won't do anything drastic. Please as your daughter, Ah'm asking ya to leave him alone when Ah find him. He is the father to mah babies." "Babies," the three of their voices echoed in the room. "Ya, Ah guess Ah forgot to mention that Ah'm having twins." she mumbled under her breathe. "Oh goodness gracious!" Ororo exclaimed. "Well?" Logan started to tap his feet on the ground impatiently and even lit up a cigar in front of the Professor. He was started to get extremely stressed out. "Well," she shuffled her feet and spoke in a small voice. "Ya'll remember Remy?".. Logan started to growl extremely loud," That fucking bastard, I'll kill him and skin him up by his balls." "Ya stop that now, ya hear me, he's the father of these babies and he's gonna live, ya got that?" She growled back in a deeply furious voice. The walls started to shake while she was growling and things were falling from the wall.
You could hear the screaming of other mutants in the mansion, everyone was screaming earthquake! "Now Rogue, I am sure that Logan will not kill your husband and please calm down, before you bring the mansion down. I am not sure who this Remy is, what does he go by?" the Professors voice was calm and collected. Ororo knew exactly who Remy was, but she had no idea that Rogue knew him. She could only shake her head, it'd figure that the thief would pick someone like Rogue. Rogue gritted her teeth," His codename is Gambit." "Oh my, Isn't he a bit old for you Rogue?" the professor asked. "He's only ten years old than me, not a big deal, especially since he's the only one who gets me and has helped me with mah powers." She was starting to become unhappy again. "Ya won't ever get it, Ah love that swamp rat," she stated with conviction. "So can we please, just find him right now?" she gave Professor the look that said let's get this shit on the road. "Yes, I will try to search for his signature with cerebro, but Rogue you cannot go into the room. I am sorry to say, you are too unstable to be in there while I search.
