AN: I posted almost two days after the "Day of Reckoning" came out. As soon as I noticed Remy and Rogue's "connection," I knew that I had to write a story about it. Therefore, I wanna be the first Remy/Rogue "Day of Reckoning" author ficcie thing. Rogue POV…want me to do Remy POV next? Feedback, please!
First Look

Five pods. Five empty pods. Five goddamn empty pods. What the hell? Make mah life even harder than it already is? Where are the hell are they? Where's Magneto - and these new people who filled the other four pods?
Thought to self: Are any of them hot? Mah age? An' single?
Yeah, bunking with Kitty is not the best thing a person could hope for. Ah'm surprised that Ah haven' started going, "like," every five minutes. Hell, maybe every three words. Ah'm serious, that girl cannot make one sentence without saying, "like." Like, whatever, Ah'm supposed to, like, listen to yah? Girl, now, like, yah got it coming.
Still…are they hot? Single? Free? Available? Potential to be liked by me?
Oh, uh, Ah mean…yeah, Ah hope Jean isn't tunin' in. I turn mah head to her, an' I notice she's havin' her own problems. She definitely wouldn' care to eavesdrop in mah mind. I think I'll just stay out of sight an' see how things go. Sure, Ah love mah team, but sometimes, Ah think that this ain't my battle. Why should Ah fight? Ah never wanted to get involved in this in the first place...
Whatever, call meh a traitor. Here's a tip: Ask meh if Ah care.
Oh, no, someone's in trouble. Someone that I care about. (Even now, Ah can't remember who it was, Ah just felt the intuition.) Ah thought maybe Ah could sneak up on the attacker.
Ah walk slowly around the big cube. At least, that's what it looked like to meh. Readying mahself, Ah carefully took mah glove off, one finger at a time. Placing mah glove into mah otha hand, Ah rounded the corner.
There, the opposition stood.
Ah tried to advance slowly, real slow, but Ah was cut off. A different opposition stood in mah way. A really cute opposition. A really, really, really, really, really cute opposition.
An' ta think, we din' even talk, an' somethin' flowed through us.
He held mah hand there, an' Ah could feel the heat emanating even from his glove. We looked inta each otha's eyes, an' Ah noticed that his brown ones were tinted as if they was burning. Ah feel my lips opening slowly, an' mah head tilts up. He smirks, an' slightly leans his head down. Ah feel his breath on my lips, an' just as we were about to have a forbidden kiss (one, would be in mah advantage, an' two, my first! kiss), he took a card out.
Ah was still mesmerized by the mere closeness of us, that Ah didn't really notice it at first. As he moved away, (those half-laden eyes sending shocks through mah body), he pursed his lips as if in a kiss an' moved away.
Then, he left! Just like that!
Ah was still staring at the spot that he was standing at 'til I felt the little shudder of something in my hand. Recognizing the still red-hot card on mah glove, Ah stared at it fo' a while, as if the mere thought of him touching somethin' that Ah was now touching was exhilarating.
But then I remembered that I could die by it.
An' then I'd never see him again.
(Or kick the shit out o' him!)
Anyway, Ah threw it away from me an' slipped my glove back on. Curses, Ah thought to myself. The delicious proximity of our bodies was thrillin' ta me, ever since Ah've noticed the couples in school…holding hands, kissing…
But, that's all in the past now. Everything has changed. And, shugah, everything will change. Just let meh find that guy with the burning eyes…and the feeling that we've known each other for a very long time. Or maybe just the feeling that Ah could be loved…
Still…Ah just wish Ah knew his name.
And why he's on Magneto's side.
