Wolverine tugged at the butt of his black spandex uniform. "I don't think I'll ever get used to these uniforms." He said standing next to Rouge and Storm waiting to get on the Black Bird.
"Just be sure not to accidentally unsheathe your claws, while your pulling out that wedgie, okay?" Storm said giggling. Wolverine glared at her and gave her a sarcastic laugh.
"I don't know, suguh, it doesn't look half bad on you." Rouge said as she gave him a seductive smile.
Logan looked the voluptuous, brown-haired beauty up and down, and then grinned back at her "I could say the same for you."
Gambit had been standing next to Rouge the whole time his already red eyes burning with fury. See Rouge and him were lovers, well they loved each other make love…or kiss…well to be specific they couldn't touch each other. The only way you could tell they were even lovers was the way they talked to each other, and the fact that they shared a king sized bed. But even then it's not like they could cuddle and embrace each other. But that didn't change the fact that they loved each other, well at least he loved her. He saw the looks that Rogue and Logan gave each other, he heard all of their flirting. And it worried him, even though he knew nothing could happen between them, it made him worry because he knew that it could mean that she didn't love him back.
Rogue who had noticed Gambit's face grabbed his safely covered arm and pressed up against it.
"Remy, baby what's wrong?" Rogue asked lovingly.
Remy smiled down at her and said. "Nothing, Cherie."
He was ashamed of himself for even just thinking that, when he knew it wasn't true at all. Just then the Black Bird's door opened up, Remy watched it intently, as Rogue looked at Logan who had been watching her, and winked.
The flight back to the mansion was a quiet one. The silence was broken by Logan as they got off the plane. "Back to our talk about the uniforms," he said "I mean they are a little bit kinky don't you think? I mean what was the professor thinking?"
Right after that was said, Charles Xavier came through the door. "X-men..." The professor said. "I have something to tell you." The X-men all gathered around him. "Logan is right-"
Cyclops interrupted "Wow. That's something unexpected!" He looked over at the professor, grinning from earto ear showing his white teeth. And seeing hisscowl, quickly stopped grinning."Sorry sir."
"As I was saying. Logan is right, I'm just a dirty old man." The professor continued.
It was so quiet that you could have heard a pin drop a mile away. The silence was broken by Nightcrawler shouting. "I knew it!" everyone looked at him with a confused look. "Sorry." Nightcrawler apologized with his thick German accent.
"Anyway." Xavier said as everyone returned their attention back to him. "How did it go?"
Cyclops smiled "Well we all came back with all of our limbs." Logan rolled his eyes as Cyclops informed Xavier of the obvious.
"But I don't think that we could say the same for the sentinels." Jean smirked.
"Well, I'm glad you're all safe. Anyway it is late why don't you al get some shut eye?" Everyone started to head back into the mansion. Just when Rogue, Gambit, and Wolverine were about to go inside the professor stopped them. "Rogue, Wolverine I'd like to talk to you."
Logan walked towards the prof. while Remy hesitated for a moment until Rogue reassured him by saying. "I'll be in, in a minute, suguh." Gambit gave on last glance at Wolverine then sighed andwent inside.
"I have a mission for you two; there is trouble in some villages in the Amazon rainforest. It appears that there is a mutant whom has powers not unlike your own, Rogue. Except they are much more lethal and she has the ability to choose,that when she touches someone if her powers go into effect or not."
"How does that make her powers more lethal? I mean if she has the choice to take someone's life force, that would make her less lethal, more lucky." Logan asked confused.
"As long as she is a nice person," Rogue replied. "Which since the prof. is here getting us ready to go on a mission to go and find her, I'm guessing she ain't some Miss. Congeniality."
"You're not far from the truth, Rogue. See the way she is more lethal is the fact that instead of simply sucking the life force out of them, she kills them even just by touching them." He said continuing his explanation.
"I'm guessing that is what happens to normal people, what happens to people like us, mutants?" Rogue asked.
"Once more, much like your own power Rogue, she absorbs their mutant ability temporarily, but unlike your power, the mutant whose abilities she absorbed loses their abilities temporarily." Xavier said finishing up his explanation.
Rogue crossed her arms "So suguh, how long is temporarily?"
"Good question Rogue I believe it is about a week." Xavier said in reply.
Wolverine started pacing back and forth sighing. "So let me guess. This little wanna be Rogue is abusing her power, and you want us to go all the way down to the Amazon and take her out? Do we even have enough fuel in the Black Bird to go there and come back?"
