Chapter 1: Untitled
The Room lay in ruins. There was fresh smoke still pouring all over it. All the walls & windows were crushed & smashed. Big chunks, & small pieces of cement, walls, glass & shrapnel lay across the room. Not far from the entrance, lay a motionless, female figure. Her green & yellow costume was torn,& stained with blood, her jacket, or what was left of it, was nothing but shreds covering her battered body. Her auburn hair was singed. It had a white streak in it, but it nearly turned red, because of all the blood that was covering it. Rogue simply laid there, not moving, her eyes closed. Suddenly, she shifted slightly, &groaned in pain. Her green eyes opened slowly. The first thought that burst through her mind was: "What happened ta me? Why am ah layin' here?" She looked at the room around her, or what was left of it. She couldn't see anything at first, as there was a bright light, still miraculously functioning. She tried to get up, but she couldn't. Pain shot through her like lightning, she couldn't stand it, tried to scream, but no sound came out, just a low groan. She looked down, just to see a big piece of metal, right between her lung & stomach, sticking out of her back. There was also a deep slash in her right arm, & another big piece of shrapnel in her left leg. The pain was unbearable. She just wished it would stop. Crying, she thought: "Please make it stop, Please just make it stop…"
I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light
I can't remember how
I can't remember why
I'm lying here tonight
And I can't stand the pain
And I can't make it go away
No I can't stand the pain…
The pieces were slowly reforming in her mind, as she remembered what happened. The X-Men had just finished fighting a rough pack of Sentinels. They were still recovering from the battle when, out of nowhere (a secret room) came a Sentinel bomb, ready to explode in less than 10 seconds. Flying as fast as she could, Rogue slammed into the Sentinel, Pushing it back inside the room. As the heavy metal door slammed behind her, she felt intense heat, then everything went black.
How could this happen to me?
I made my mistakes
Got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me?
"Rogue? Rogue where are you?" She recognized Scott's voice, followed by Storm's worried whisper: "Oh my God, do you think she's…?" "No, she's not. I know she's not, ma chere is tough, she don't go down easy." Rogue sensed fear, & hope, in Remy's voice. She wanted nothing but to call back, let them know she wasn't lost…yet no sound came out her throat. She was too weak to move, so her best hope was to be found by Jean, who was scanning the room. She had to stay awake, but she was losing it. Desperately, memories of all the happy times she spent with Remy flooded her mind. The first time they kissed when they were stuck on the savage land…she held on to these memories…she felt remorse. She wished she could go back in time & correct all her mistakes…she wished she hadn't gone through this fight with Kitty…She knew she couldn't…just as she slipped into unconsciousness once more.
Everybody's screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again
So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
And I can't explain what happened
And I can't erase the things that I've done
No I can't…
Gambit looked around the room. He felt scared…scared of the fact that Rogue might be...no Remy, don't think like dat…you must have hope…please don't let her die…"I can't find her, she's probably unconscious, or…" Jean said the last word in a whisper, no matter how calm she seemed, he could feel something, almost like fear, in her voice. "Can't you know where she is, Logan?" "Nah, her smell's all over the room & it's all mixed up. Guess we're gonna have to split up n' look Cyke." "I agree Scott." "When somebody finds her, you'll have to go first, Logan, if her injuries are severe, you will be her best chance." "Hank's right." Said Cyclops. "The first one who finds Rogue must call the others, quickly. Ok then, let's move people!"
Remy was praying silently, hoping she's not lost yet, he'd be a wreck without his Rogue, he is a wreck without his chere. "Please don't let her be dead. Please don't let her be…" were the only thoughts roaming his head as he was searching. Suddenly, he saw her. "Mon Dieu…"
How could this happen to me
I made my mistakes
I've got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me
"I'VE FOUND HER!!" He yelled as loud as he could, rushing to her side, throwing the debris away from her. "Rogue? Chere? Can y'hear me?" He grabbed her gently, calling her, shaking hr softly. Slowly, her eyes fluttered open. "R-Remy?" Her whisper was barely audible, but it made him smile: it was a true sign of life, his chere was still alive! "Shh cherie, evert'ing's goin' t'be ok, Logan & Henry are comin', y'gonna be all righ'."
"Sugah…it's already…too late…" "No Roguie don't say dat, you're not gonna die..." "Ah'm not gonna make it, Rem. Ah cahn feel it.." "But I love y'Rogue." "Ah love you too…Remy…An' Ah always…will…" "Rogue? Chere? Mon Dieu please don't go please please…don't you let go…" but she already was. Her hand fell freely to the floor…Her green eyes..her emerald green eyes…stared without seeing…into nothingness…her features…always so alive…were lifeless…Tears splashed onto her face. Remy stretched out his fingers & gently closed her eyes, he felt her soft skin under his fingers. She looked so peaceful…Just like she's sleeping…but he knew she wasn't waking up…that she was sleeping forever…that she was gone..she wasn't coming back…Were his eyes tricking him, or there was a small smile on her face? She looked so beautiful, so innocent…He lost her…lost his Rogue…Sobbing harder than ever, he bent over & carried her lifeless from in his arms. "I'm here bub, where---" Logan stopped in his tracks as he caught Gambit's face, stained with tears still pouring down his red-on-black eyes, looked at Rogue's body in his arms, saw his bare hand across her face…"Oh God…" Wolverine was always so tough, but this time, he dropped to his knees, he couldn't believe Rogue was dead, she was like a daughter to him…The other X-Men arrived…No words were needed…but they wouldn't believe it… "Oh my Goodness…" Storm whispered, but it was more like a sob… "Remy, have you checked---?" "Oui" he interrupted Hank. "She's gone…mon ami…she's gone…"
I made my mistakes
I've got no where to run
The night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me…
