A/N: this is COMPLETELY AU! None of this will ever happen in Evo, and I am pretty proud to say that I thought of it all by myself! Just a bit of fun.... not like I own them or anything.... 'Sides, if I did, this woulda happened already....

"Ah aihnt nevah fehlt.... Complete yah know?" Remy nodded from his position behind Rogue, his arms around her waist while they spoke. "Ah Ah.... well, Ah dohnt know whats missin' anymohre Remy. Ah really dohnt, but its somethin'.... Importahnt.... ya know?"

"Like touch?" he whispered softly, not wanting to hurt her feelings.

"Exactly. But that's not it Remy.. its something else. Ah dohnt know what it is  anymohre."

Xavier looked up at Storm entered his office.

"Did you want something Professor?" She asked politly, wondering what could be so urgent for his to summon her and use the word Immediately.

"Yes.... Storm.... Do you think theres something different.... about Rogue?"

"Rogue? Why.... Now that you mention it Charles, there may just be something. She seems a little more...." She paused, unable to think of the word.

"Vunerable, Ororo?" He finished for her.

"That's exactly it...."

The purple-haired English Ninja was laying in bed beside her partner, the winged Warren Worthington III, when something flashed through her head. A feeling of.... Hope? She frowned slightly, trying to pinpoint the feeling, eventually, sending out a mental call.

~Hello? Is there anyone there?~ amidst the familiar jumble of thoughts from 'normal' people, one voice stood out. The voice of a mutant.

~Don't worry about her Elizabeth.... I'm coming.~

~Worry about who?~ Betsy frowned slightly. This might not even have been meant for her.

~Rogue. Dont let her run....~

And the voice faded back into the crowd. Betsy frowned slightly, before sending Remy a message.

~Don't let her run Remy. Someone's coming to help her.~

She didn't know why, but the thought that there was someone out there wanting to help Rogue was suddenly comforting, and she realised wheat it was she had been so worried about, especially with Rogue becoming more and more jumpy. Her whole body relaxed as Warren pulled her closer in his sleep. Kissing his cheek briefly, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.

~*~*~

The girl with the dark green hair skidded to a stop at the end of the alley and sat down, closing her eyes. She HAD to stop her from running. It had taken So long to find her after last time. Everytime she got close, Rogue ran.

~PSYLOCKE!~ She shouted into the mental mass, her voice coming out a lot smaller than she had wanted, but she wasn't a telepath. She could just tap into mental conversations with people she had met. Back when Rogue was in England with her Foster Parents Raven and Irene, She'd been following Rogue, looking for her as always, and she'd bumped into Betsy. Lovely girl.

~Hello? Is there anyone there?~ Betsy's voice was a lot louder than her own, to no surprise.

~Don't worry about her Elizabeth.... I'm coming.~ She confirmed. It anyone could stop the Southern Belle, it would probably be the Ninja.

~Worry about who?~ She briefly wondered if she had the right person, but there was only one Psylocke right?

~Rogue. Don't let her run....~ And that was it. Her mental voice exhausted, she lapsed back into the crowd, her voice no longer louder than theirs, and no way for Betsy to continue the conversation. She hoped she'd gotten the message. Bayville was less than a days travel away now.

Sat outside in her tree, writing another of her poems, Rogue looked up, not surprised to see Betsy and Remy watching her, not too far away, stood together. They'd been like that all day. Despite the love she felt for her two friends, they were starting to annoy her. She sent them both one of her Death-Glares, and shifted in the tree, so she wasn't facing them. What the hell was going on here?

Betsy looked to Remy.

"She aint happy 'bout this Luv."

"Que?" *

"Bein' watched. Its Rogue remember. She likes her space luv. Maybe we should....?"

"Non, Betsy. Y' can go, but Remy gon' keep an eye on her. Don' wan' her goin'."

"Alright Rem. I'll be back in an hour. A girl's gotta eat and all that."

He nodded and watched the Ninja walk off, turning his attention back to Rogue, only to find she wasn't there. He frowned, looking about the grounds for her. She couldn't have gotten far.

"Lookin' f' me Swamp-Rat?" She asked from behind him, leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed, looking even more darker than usual.

"Jus' m' chere, petite." He turned to glance appraisingly over her. "Y' look belle chere." She blushed slightly, covering it up by narrowing her eyes, and glaring at him.

"Any reason ya watchin' meh?"

"Je adore regardez tu, Rogue."** 

"Well don't!" She sent him another death glare.

"Come t' Party avec moi Rogue. S'il vous plait?"*** He turned on the puppy dog eyes, removing his glasses so she could see them and have the full effect.

"Remy...." She tried to stay mad with him, but eventually burst out laughing. "Remy! Okay, okay! Ah'll go with ya!" He grinned wide, and planted a brief kiss on her hand.

"Remy see y' tonight Chere." He enjoyed the look of shock on her face.

"Its Tonight!?!?" He grinned and nodded.

"An chere?" He waited till she looked up, that Smirk so trademark of Gambit on his lips. "Wear a dress p'tite." And then he was gone. Rogue narrowed her eyes.

"AHM GONNA KILL YAH SWAMP RAT!"

The green haired mutant fell again, cursing softly when it started to snow. Four hours and she would have been there. FOUR lousy hours! Shivering from the cold, and brushing the first drifts of snow off her face, she realised that she'd be lucky to get there tonight at all.

An hour later, the snow was upto her knees. She was done cursing the snow, and started cursing her back luck for being only 5'1. Still shivering, she looked towards the lights marking the city of Bayville out for her. Upon reaching the outskirts of Bayville, she collapsed in the snow.

* 'What?'

**Not sure if this is right.... supposed to be 'I love watching you, Rogue'

*** 'With me' 'Please'

Feel free to Review. The green haired Lass is my OC. I own her, but only for the purpose of this story. She wont be anywhere else. You'll see why.

Also, I'm a little worried about Fan Fic's word-count. It says this was 997, when my puter says it was 1,107. Something wrong here peoples.... (everything before the word Also).

Anyway, love reviewers, cos this'll be the only story like this I'll attempt. I want to get as many charries in it, and I know I such at Acolytes and Brotherhood, so any tips for improvement when I get them in are greatly appreciated.... that's why I never do Fred, or Todd.... See! I have reasons!
