Disclaimer: I saw a show once and the characters in the show met the creator of X-Men. I however am not that lucky. And if I were to buy the X-Men off of him wouldn't I have to meet him first?
Author's Notes: Lady Firewing: Great minds think alike. I was actually thinking about doing that. Now that you suggested it I have to use it. Which means I can make this story a ROMY story. YAY! Sorry I offended you. I was on sugar high when I wrote that and not in the right mind set.
Keasa123Wood: Hmm, I'll think about it but I use Sinister way to often in my other stories with my OC Leigh Ray Lebeau. And I will. See and update right here.
InternetRasberries: Thanks really glad you enjoyed it. Hope you're a ROMY fan 'cause there's gonna be a lot of that in this story.
Okay all you ROMY fans out there reading this will love the first part. That's all I'm saying.
Remy walked through the streets of the small Mississippi town smiling. He had stopped here to stay away from home and Bella Donna a little longer.
The quaint little town was the perfect place to forget about all of his problems for a while.
The streets were slightly crowded but Remy didn't mind. Crowded streets meant good business for him.
He noticed a girl walking in the opposite direction as him. He didn't know what but something about her caught his attention.
Her clothes were long and covered everything but her face despite the heat. Her clothes were also wore out and looked like they were falling off their wearer.
The clothes weren't the only thing that was different about this girl. Even though she was dirty she seemed to be very pretty. And Remy being the ladies' man he was he could tell if she wasn't as thin as she was she would have some nice curves.
She had emeralds for eyes that shifted nervously taking in everything. Her hair was auburn with white bangs the framed her face, giving it a sort of innocence.
He was so busy thinking about this girl he almost didn't notice when she bumped into him and took his wallet. Almost! If he had missed it entirely he would lose all credibility as a thief.
He turned around a started following her. She seemed to know exactly where she was going, and because of the crowd was hard to track.
But he managed to keep up with her. Then she went to a part of the town where she clearly wasn't familiar with, because she was slowing down and darting around more uncertainly.
Then she was trapped. He had followed her into a closed off ally.
"Give Remy his wallet back and he won't have to hurt yo'" he threatened shuffling his cards. He pulled out a card and charged it to show her what he meant.
"Yer not the only mutant ya know" she said pulling off her gloves, scowling. Mostly because she was mad at herself for getting in the same situation as last night.
"Ah so she's a mutant well dat's an interesting discovery" he thought to himself.
"What do yo' want with Remy's money anyway?" he asks her.
"So Ah can eat. Ya feed yerself by yer job Ah feed myself by stealin' got a problem with that?" she challenged.
"Non" he said surprising her. She obviously wasn't expecting that answer by the way her mouth dropped open. Remy was surprised by the answer she had given him too.
"What?" she asked.
"Remy is a thief, so he steals to make a living de only reason he's mad is because he let yo' steal his wallet" his says putting his cards away and taking a step towards her.
"Uh sorry about that but Ah'm still not givein' ya yer wallet back she said putting her gloves back on.
"'Ow long 'ave yo' been livin' on de streets Cherie?" he asked her.
"Since Ah was about five. Ah'm about eighteen now so…" she trailed off shrugging.
Remy looked at her with a sort of respect in his Red on Black eyes that of course she didn't see, seeing how they were covered up with sun glasses.
He had lived on the streets when he was young sure. But he was certain that if Jean-Luc had never adopted him he would probably be dead by now.
"'Ow about Remy make yo' a deal Cherie?" he asked her suddenly wanting to help this girl.
"What kind of deal Swamp Rat?" she asked "And stop callin' meh Cherie Ah know what it means and Ah ain't nobody's dear."
Remy chuckled at that. "Well 'ow about yo' give Remy 'is wallet back and he'll take yo' to get some food. Bring yo' clothes shoppin' and tomorrow he'll bring yo' to where he lives and yo' can join de thieves' guild" he told her meaning every word.
She thought about it for a while. "What's in it fer ya?" she asked suspiciously.
"Nuttin' Cherie absolutely nuttin'" he said holding up his hands, smirking at her scowl that seemed to make her look even more beautiful.
"Take off yer sunglasses" she said wanting to see if he was telling the truth.
"Dat's not a good idea Cherie" Remy warned not wanting to frighten her.
"Fihne Ah guess ya won't be getting yer wallet back anytihme soon" she threatened.
Remy sighed but complied to her wishes taking the sunglasses off. Rogue gasped, staring back at her was the most beautiful pair of eyes she had ever seen.
"Sorry for scarin' yo' Cherie, Remy's eyes do dat to a lot o' people" he said starting to put them back on.
"No don't put them back on. Yer eyes didn't scare meh, there beautiful" she said as they slowly started to get lost in each other's eyes.
"Really?" Remy asked surprised.
"Yeah, and sure Ah'll take yer deal, but stop callin' meh Cherie, muh name's Rogue" she said handing him his wallet.
"Okay Roguey, but no promises Cherie" he said.
She glared at him and he gave her a lopsided grin, now glad that she had stolen his wallet.
Kurt, Wanda and Pietro shuffled their feet, as they stood awkwardly in front of the house the new people had moved into.
Erik and Raven stood behind their children Raven holding a casserole for the new family.
"Hello" the woman who opened the door said. She was African American with ivory white hair.
"Ororo?" Raven asked astonished to see her.
"Erik? Raven? What a lovely surprise please come in" the woman said moving to let them enter.
"Kurt, Pietro, Wanda this is our good friend Ororo. So Ororo what brings you here?" Raven says brightly.
"I've been living with my sister and her family and we recently moved here on account of her husband's job" she tells them.
A boy around the same age as the three teens comes out of another room. His body is covered in spikey bone armor, which immediately marks him as a mutant.
"This is my nephew Evan, Evan these are my old friends Erik, and Raven, and their kids" Ororo said introducing everyone.
"I'm Wanda, that's my twin Pietro and Kurt" Wanda said nodding to each boy in turn.
"Sup" Evan greeted.
"Sup" the other two boys greet back.
Wanda just rolls her eyes.
"Why don't you three go show Evan around?" Erik suggests.
They nod in agreement at him as Evan grabs his skateboard and they are out the door.
Alex Summers stood on the beach waiting for his turn in the surf competition. He tries to act excited for this, but in reality his mind is in a far off place thinking about his dead brother.
They call his name. He shakes his head trying to clear it, as he runs out into the water.
He paddles out and waits for a wave. A big one starts to come, and he goes to ride it.
He can't concentrate on what he's supposed to do. He gets got in a pipe wave and he gets pulled under. His last conscious thought is if he dies then he will finally be reunited with his brother.
Scott flips through the channels boredly. The other boys sit around him complaining about him not being able to pick a channel.
He finally stops on the news when he sees something vaguely interesting. It's live feed from a surf competition in Hawaii.
Some kid who is supposed to be really good apparently almost drowned. They flash a picture of the kid and say him name.
Scott freezes at this and his mouth drops open. There on the television is his little brother Alex Summers.
Author's Notes: Okay so this chapter takes place the next day after the last chapter. Hope ya'll enjoyed. If you are reading this Review or you will get introduced to Leigh Ray Lebeau by way of charged card and absorbsation induced headaches. Not the best way to meet her.
