Chapter 2
The next day was a Saturday so Rogue slept in a little. She was eventually woken up by the boys making a ruckus in the living room. Rogue got up and dressed for the day. She didn't want to hang around with all the guys so she went out for a walk. She was still contemplating whether she wanted to join the X-men or stay with the Brotherhood. There was a big difference between the two but she still had a hard time deciding. She went to the park and sat at a picnic table and watched the families interacting. She wished she had a true family but that was impossible. As she was sitting there she didn't see the person coming to her from the side.
"Rogue." She whipped around her head in the direction the voice came from and there stood Magneto.
"I know what you're thinking Rogue."
"How?"
"I know everything Rogue. You know you don't want to leave the Brotherhood. They will never accept you at the institute like you think they would."
"Why would you say that? You don't know all of the people there?"
"Oh but I do Rogue. They will just hurt you in the long run, Rogue. Charles way of life is just a dream. He doesn't know the real world like I do. People are mean and will try to kill you if they know you are a mutant."
"I don't believe you. How do I know you are telling the truth? Scott is nice to me. We are alike and get along. Why won't I get along with the rest?"
"You are different Rogue. They don't know you and they don't understand what you're going through."
"That doesn't give me a reason to trust you. They have given me a reason to trust them. So you know what? I choose them!"
"I was afraid you would say that. I can't let you do that though. Not without a fight."
Just then several Brotherhood members came out from behind bushes and trees.
"You planned this all along. You knew you were going to have to stop or kill me."
"You know too much about the Brotherhood. We can't let you take that information with you to Charles."
Just then Juggernut came crashing into her and slamming her into a tree. The Brotherhood attacked her and she couldn't fight back as they overpowered her.
"I'm sorry Rogue but this is the only way."
Magneto walked away and soon so did the Brotherhood and they left a broken and beaten Rogue behind. She was almost unconscious. She knew she had to get help but she didn't have a cell phone. She pulled herself up with assistance of a tree and made her way to a phone booth which was thankfully not far. Once she got there she dialed the number she mesmerized last night.
"Hello?" The voice on the other end answered.
"Scott, help me," Rogue said shacking.
