same as before, they just have their own umm...chapter...thingys. Whatever
they're called. lol thnx for the reviews =)
To the following umm...reviewer ppl...
Angel285 – Yes, I am gonna continue! Yay! School has been overwhelming lately. Thnx for reviewing =D
No One Cares 1000 – Let's just say...there's no romance between Rogue and Bobby. Or it went overboard. =P I've never been a big bobby fan anyways. So, from here on out, let's just say he's outta the picture. hehe *lol*
Narikia – Yes, I know the format was wacked. I didn't realize it 'til I posted! And I'm kinda new to this whole thing. I fixed it though! Yay!! And I separated what I have so far into separate chapters! Btw, thnx so much for the review, and I'll defiantly check out that lotr/xmen right away.
Prologue
Rogue slipped her gloves off and set them on the vanity in her dorm room. She had been at "Xavier's School for the Gifted" about two years now, and those two years held the majority of exciting times, hard times, and strange experiences she had encountered, during her 16 years. Xavier's school was a place where mutants could come, and not feel unwanted or looked down upon.
The reason was that they all had something in common– powers; and through that understanding, came great respect for each other. Rogue, for one, had the ability to absorb other mutants' abilities, by making skin-contact with them. (Which obviously made things difficult at times.) But let's say she was to touch a human...not a mutant. There'd be no powers to absorb from them, and it'd take away their breath, and if not killing them, causing great damage. Recently she had discovered she could fly, and was working with the professor on gaining control over the skill 100%.
Studying herself in the mirror, she hummed silently while brushing the tangles from her dark, brownish-red hair. (Not to mention the two white bolts cascading down, framing the sides of her face.) She wasn't tall, nor was she short, happily standing at 5'6". Her skin was light, her eyes green, with her fearless nature that glowed in them.
Her attention went to a pile of textbooks on her desk; she sighed, then quickly got up from the chair, and thumbed through the stack of homework. Luckily, it was the beginning of the week, so she had plenty of time to finish it all by Friday. (One can only hope so...) There was a math paper, and a book report due the following day though. For the next hour, she worked on math, finally finishing at 9:30. Tomorrow morning would start early; she needed to finish. Taking a quick break, she showered.
After she was in her knee-length silky green nightgown, she settled into bed with a warm mug of cocoa and the book she needed to finish reading. She'd been reading it for the past three weeks, and was on the last two chapters. "The Fellowship of the Ring", it was called, recommended by Professor Xavier. She'd grown a real interest in it, and was always excited when night finally came, and she could read the next part. The books were more detailed than the movies, which she had seen also, countless times. Hobbits...Men...Dwarves...Elves, it was a lot like her world, only instead of humans and mutants, there were a bunch of different races. She found it fascinating. What would it be like? What if it was like that here? I think it's for the best it isn't. There's already too many wars and conflict over mutants.
By 11:00 she'd finished the book, and wrote her report. She then set her alarm for 6:00 and drifted off to sleep...
