Rogue walked down the long hallway the next day. She had wanted to speak with Logan, but knew he was training in the Danger Room at the moment and wouldn't be free for two hours. Mr. Worthington was out on a business trip and wouldn't be returning till the next day. She needed someone to talk to that was mature and could give her advice and she knew that Miss. Munroe didn't have a class at the moment.

During breakfast earlier, Emma had brushed her arm against her. Normally it would have been no big deal, but she had gotten a tingly feeling. The first thing she had thought was her powers were returning, but knew that was impossible. She had been cured of her mutant powers.

She needed to talk to someone about this. She didn't want to tell Jubilee because she knew the young girl would tell everyone, knowing the motor mouth her friend could be. There was no way she was going to tell Bobby.

His name brought bitter feelings as she thought of him. She had liked him a lot. Okay, that was a bit of a lie, she had grown to love him. She had wanted to be with him more than anyone else in the world. Even more than David. He was the reason she took the cure. So the two of them could have a normal relationship. Then what does he do? He starts flirting with Kitty. She had seen it before she took the cure and thought that the flirting would stop as soon as he could touch his girlfriend, but it only increased. She swore if she saw him at the moment she would either slap or yell at him. Maybe both.

However, she then began to feel guilty again. A part of her believed that Bobby did love her and was just hanging with his friends. She didn't want to be one of those girlfriends that nagged her boyfriend on his every move and knew it might push him away. He was still one of the few that talked to her.

She climbed the stairs to get to Storm's loft on the third floor. Rogue heard a small crash, like a vase breaking, and rushed up the stairs.

"Merde." Remy cursed as he looked down at the broken pot with dirt spilled from it. "Stormy's gonna kill dis Cajun for dis." He muttered and was about to pick it up and try to put it back like nothing happened.

"What are ya doin' here?" Rogue asked the Cajun. "Are ya stalkin' meh?" She asked. It seemed like everyday since she had met Remy he had shown up when and where she least expected.

"Actually, dat was on my list for later on. I was hopin' to find Stormy here, but now I really don' think I'll be up to seein' her later." Remy answered as picked up the broken pot and placed it back by the window.

"Miss. Munroe is gonna be mad at ya for that. She doesn't take kindly ta people who harm her plants." Rogue informed him. She remembered when the white haired goddess made John and Bobby plant new grass all around the school for setting her most prized plant on fire. Even after that, they still had six months detention. Well Bobby did, John only did two before he left to join Magneto.

"Yeah, I kinda know. If she asks, say y' never saw moi up here." Remy said to her. "Why are y' up here anyways?" He asked her.

"Ah was lookin' for Miss. Munroe. What else?" Rogue snapped and rolled her eyes. "If ya see her, tell her Ah was lookin' for her."

"Will do." Remy nodded. Rogue turned to leave. "So, am I going to have de pleasure of seein' y' in de Danger Room?" He asked, an eyebrow lifted up.

"Ah don't think so. Ah don't really need trainin' anymore." Rogue answered quietly.

"How did y' get out of it? I was told everyone's gotta go." Remy stated to her.

"Well, it is kinda hard ta defend yourself or do anythin' in there if ya have no powers." Rogue told him.

"So your de one dat took the cure? I was told about y'." Rogue turned around to face him.

"What did ya hear?" She asked. Her hands making a fist.

"Some said dat y' were a traitor for doin' it. Y'r only here for de free room and board. And a bunch of other crap." Remy replied to her.

"And ya believe all of it too, don't ya?" Rogue growled at him.

"Non, y' must have had a good reason for it. Just wonderin' what it is." Remy tilted his head to the side, waiting for the answer.

"Mah powers were the worst anyone could have. Ah couldn't touch anyone without makin' them pass out. With one touch Ah could take a person's memories. If they were a mutant, their powers. They were ruinin' mah life. Hell, Ah put mah first boyfriend inta a coma." Rogue answered. She fought back the tears that threatened to fall from her eyes. She hated explaining what her powers were.

"Okay, y' win for crappiest powers of de year." Remy commented. He couldn't really relate to what she had gone through. He never had problems with his powers. Sure, maybe when they first manifested all those years ago and he blew the card table up that freaked out his brother and cousin. But he could never image what she went through. To not have control over your own powers and to live in fear that you might hurt someone. He shuddered at the thought.

"Ah had tried ta be patient and try ta learn to control them, but it was hopeless." Rogue muttered.

"What the hell are you two doin' up here?" Logan interrupted the two young mutants. His Danger Room session had ended early.

"None of y'r business, homme." Remy snarled as he backed towards the window. "See y' later, chere." Remy bowed before he took off out the window.

Logan growled. He had thought of slicing the Cajun in two when he first saw him near Rogue. He still got a weird feeling every time he saw the younger mutant "What are you hanging around trash like him for?" Logan asked Rogue.

"He was up here when Ah was lookin' for Miss. Munroe." Rogue answered, forgetting the reason she came up to the loft in the first place.

"Well ya better be ready in two hours, ya got Danger Room practice." Logan told her before he turned to leave.

"What? Ah can't go in there." She protested.

"Oh yes ya are. Ya may not have powers, but you'll be learnin' ta defend yourself. And as long as ya live under this roof, that's how it's gonna be." Logan said before he left. He cursed himself going down the stairs. He sounded too much like a father scolding his daughter.

"Mystique." Magneto smiled at her and got up from his chair. "Why you have never looked better than you do now." He admitted.

"You left me." She growled. "I've been planning my revenge on you ever since you turned your back on me." The blue woman snarled and pulled out a gun. "And now, I'll end your life." She told him. She had seen the news and heard that Magneto had been depowered. Now was the perfect time to strike.

"Your going to shoot me? This is what you've dropped to? Using Homo-saipan weapons to aid you." Magneto sneered.

"I'll use whatever I have to." Mystique muttered and fired the weapon. The bullet never reached the older man. Instead it stopped a few inches away from him. "What?" Her eyes widened as the bullet started expanding. She took a step back before the metal flew back and circled around her, trapping her.

"As you can see, their so called "cure" isn't as effective as they thought." Magneto smiled at her.

"So that means your back?" Pyro asked from behind them. Magneto turned, glad to see the young man chose to return to him.

"Of course. And I have plans for all of us. The world will soon tremble before us, like it should have." Magneto responded.

Muir Island

Ororo had arrived only ten minutes ago and was being lead through Moria MacTaggert's medical facility by her boyfriend, Sean Cassidy. "How was Moria able to return the Professor to a body? There was no way he could have survived after what Je-Phoenix did to him." She asked. She still couldn't bring herself to call that thing Jean. Her friend would have never killed anyone.

"You should ask her." Sean responded as they entered into a room. Ororo's eyes went wide when she saw a very much alive Charles Xavier sitting in his wheelchair.

"It is so good to see you, Professor." Ororo said with a smile as she hugged him.

"It is good to see you as well, Ororo. How is the school doing?" Charles asked, curious to know if she was able to handle the job.

"It is doing good. The school has received more students. In a few more days a few more are to arrive. I must admit the job isn't as easy as I thought." Ororo answered him.

"Of course it isn't. Originally I had wanted to leave it to Scott, but unfortunately he is no longer living. And since Jean is gone, you are the only one left, I left it to you." Charles told her as they exited the room.

Ororo didn't say anything. What could she say to him? He basically said she was his last choice for taking over the school. He had originally planned on having Scott do the job.

"It is terrible what happened." Ororo said quietly, trying to change the subject.

"Yes, of course. I knew Jean's dark side was emerging once more before Alkali Lake and I couldn't do anything. I never thought she would kill Scott." Charles said sadly.

Ororo nodded. She looked down at the Professor. Something seemed very off with him, but she couldn't put her finger on it. He didn't seem like the man she had come to admire. He was always kind and patient with all his students.

There is nothing wrong. I am just tired and wish to return to my home. Charles telepathically sent to her. This startled her. Had he been reading her thoughts? He had never done that to her or any of his students. Especially invade another person's mind without permission. It was his number one rule with any telepath.

"Of course. We'll be home in an hour." Ororo replied to him out loud.
