"I never asked for this," Rouge thought, "to be different, to be hurt all the time. Why couldn't I have a cool power like Jean or Bobby? I'm a freak, everyone runs and hides from me. I can't bear to get close to anyone, they all think 'Rouges coming! Quick run and hide.' I hear the words they use. FREAK. MONSTER. LOSER. Even the x-men use it, I'm just not meant to be here." Rouge sat on her bed, alone. Kitty went with her date, Troy, who she had been dating for a month now. She even kissed him. "If only I could just kiss, he'll even get a guy to like me." Rouge thought more. The whole mansion was empty, not even Charles was here. "Why do they need me? My powers? Is that all I'm good for?" She didn't want to think about it, but here she was. "What if I left? Huh? Would they miss me? No, they wouldn't. Why would they?" She got up packed a bag and left the estate. "Nobody loves me. I'm a freak."
