A/N: Thanks for the reviews hope you like this chapter just as much.
I sat on the bench, elbows resting on my knees, head held up by my gloved hands. I blew a piece of white hair out of my dark-lined eyes. Heartache slowly swallowed me whole as I let all of the horrors of the day roll over me.
"I told you not to get involved," came the hollowed voice from a long lost past.
"What do you want?" I asked not even looking up from the spot I found on the ground.
"To help you of course, it's what mother's do best," she said with that evil toothy grin I had familiarized myself with years before.
"Just go away," I said with disdain, pain clearly leaking out through my words.
"And let you sit here and grovel like some pathetic little child, I think not," she scoffed at me and I felt a truth in her words that I hadn't felt in nearly two years.
"So tell me oh mother dearest what shall you have me do?" I asked with a roll of my eyes and a quiver of my lip.
"Come back with me, re-join the brotherhood. Except this time instead of the mindless training and useless bantering you where doing before, you will be in the fore front of all operations. A co-captain if you will," she said with that charming, evil smile and I couldn't help but lend an open ear.
"So you want me to lead the brotherhood with ya?" I couldn't help but ask the proposition was just too good to be true, especially since I had no where else to go.
"A mother and daughter organization at it's finest," She sat down next to me and I turned to her a wicked smile over taking my pretty features.
"If I did decide to join there would be conditions," I said skeptically knowing it's not best to trust the hand that feeds you cause poison might one day be mixed with the meal.
"I wouldn't expect anything less. We will form a binding contract once your back at the brotherhood house and make it known that you will forever be a co-leader in this militant operation," She said with business finesse that only someone with past experience would have.
"Then my dearest mother we have a deal," and with that said I took her blue hand in mine and followed her to the black limousine that was waiting for us.
Two Days Later, Brotherhood Mansion:
"Brotherhood I called you in here today so that you all will welcome out newest member of the Brotherhood. She will be my co-leader and whatever she says goes, no questions asked," Mystique said to the brood who looked at her confused.
"Daughter," she said motioning for me to enter the room. I walked in clad in a black pant suit that I had bought while we sorted out the paper work for my being leader of the Brotherhood.
"Hello boys," I said my usual hard and stubborn southern accent gone long with any and all emotion other than power. I watched as several of there faces fell in shock.
"Wait just one minute, 'daughter'?" Pietro said in confusion, apparently not even his high connections could even get him that information. A smile spread across my face at his complete and utter confusion.
"Well of course," Raven said as she made to stand up and end the meeting.
"So we have to do whatever Rogue says?" Lance asked with a raised and cocky eyebrow.
"Yes you fool how many times must I repeat myself. She has had the training and has the skills to out wit all of the x-men combined. She will be training you constantly in all of the arts I have had the luxury of having taught to her. You will do whatever it is that she says, no questions asked," she said with anger as her fist connected with the hard surface of the battered table.
"Just askin' geez," he said with the roll of his eyes.
"Mother I think I have everything under control, why don't you go upstairs and rest. The last few days have been tiring for you," I spoke with fake concern that only she could teach me.
"Yes of course I think your quite right," she said as she exited the room leaving me with the boys. An evil smirk crossing my lips as I listened to her retreating figure.
"Alright boy's, mama's gone now it's time to play," I said evilly and I watched as Pietro shuddered under my gaze.
"Well, well if it isn't the all mighty Rogue. So tell us oh wonderful how does one become leader of the brotherhood?" Pietro asked with deep sarcasm and a backstabbing glare.
"I don't know Pietro I guess it all depends on the drive and the right amount of revenge to get the job done properly," I said as I myself stood up pulling up a briefcase.
"Now back to business, how much do you all hate the x-men?" I asked with obvious answer waiting for me.
"A lot."
"Killing them wouldn't hurt."
"Hate them, now that's too nice of a word."
"Can't we just beat them for once?"
"My point exactly, all of you hate them just as much as I do. However we have quite the advantage that they don't," I said as I pulled out some plans and documents.
"Why do you hate them? Hell your probably one of them," Toad's accused with a pointed green finger.
"And that my dear boy is our advantage," with that answer a series of 'oh's' was heard from around the room.
"Now first things first, we need to get ya'll into shape. Actually better shape than the x-men hopefully. So as of next week I will be having private contractors coming in here and remodeling this dump. No more ruff housing indoors boys, you'll be doing that underground," I said as I pulled out the layouts for the new Brotherhood Mansion.
"Cool," Toad said as he hopped over closer to me for a better look at the layouts.
"Yes very cool, we will be getting our own private danger room system along with all the high-tech gadgets they have as well. Of course we will also be remodeling the upstairs for recruitment benefits and your own as well. If we're going to beat the x-men we need to become better than them in every aspect. School, Housing, Fighting and Recruitment. We might not have a strong telepath but we have many other useful tools. We're calling up for world wide Brotherhood organization and are having our other bases sending us recruits from all over the world," I said with leadership enthusiasm as I watched them agree with me with the nodding of there heads at every word that slipped from my red lips.
"So tell me Brotherhood, are you ready to become better than the x-men?" I asked with a pleasurable smile that I myself was proud of.
"YEA!" came the chorus of voices.
"Prefect now lets get started cause this isn't going to be a simple walk in the park," and with that the boys filed out of the cramped kitchen and back towards there rooms to get ready for the tasks at hand.
Because tomorrow things where about to start over and take a change for the better.
The Next Day, Brotherhood Mansion:
"Rise and Shine boy's it's time for breakfast," came my voice as I heard the grumbling voices slowly moved out into the hallway and down towards the kitchen.
It was seven a.m. on a Saturday and my contractors where already milling about the old run down house, measuring and tapping and marking as they went about the house. I watched as they all looked on the mass chaos of the house with awe and apparition.
"Good morning gentlemen I do hope you all slept well," I said coolly dressed in another pant suit of mine drinking some coffee with my mother.
"What is all of this?" Lance asked as he walked up to me.
"Starting over and beginning on a newer and better life," I said with a smile as I offered him a croissant.
"How long will all this take?" Pietro asked as he quickly made his way towards the small buffet I had set out.
"Three weeks tops, but no worries the construction shouldn't take away from your schooling or training," Raven said as she sat her cup down on its fine china platter.
"So what are we suppose to do while this stuff is getting finished?" Toad asked as he hopped on to one of the beat up sofas. Raven looked at me and I looked at her a mirroring smile on both our lips.
"Well train of course," I said as I motioned towards the unnoticed man across from me.
"This dear Brotherhood member's is a dear friend of mine who at one time trained me in many arts. Jacques-Louise will be training you in everything he knows," I said as I introduced him to his newest students.
"Dis is goin' ta be more difficult dan you let on Rogue," Jacques-Louise said in his thick Louisiana accent.
"Of course it is Jac that is why I hired you," I said with a polite smile at my teacher.
"You where always da flatter weren't," he said to me with a smile as he sipped his coffee.
"Training starts at eight; it will start at exactly eight every weekend and six on the week days. The x-men train only on the weekends and sometimes in the afternoons, so this extra training should help you catch up with them more quickly and make you far more advanced," I said to the boys as the ate there food in silence.
"I expect you all to be outside and ready by eight," Jacques-Louise said as he stood up bowing to us as he left.
"I wouldn't go against him if I where you," I said as I myself stood up and exited to change for the training. I watched the boys look at me with weary eyes as the followed my lead up the stairs to start the new life they had all been thinking about the night before.
A/N: Okay so here's the newest chapter of Rogue Fatal, so how do you like the bad ass Rogue. Taking charge once again and adding in some more of that kick ass attitude I love best. Time to take charge of that life Remy didn't want to have any part in. Well he's going to be in for the surprise of his life when he get's the new version of Rogue. Lol.
