A/N: Yay I finally got another chapter up! I had a great trouble writing all of the action in this one so… I think that y'all might like the way this one ends so if you do think it is a poorly written chapter try to suffer through to get to the end.

P.S. sorry it took me so long to get this out but is about twice as long as the rest of my chapters!

Disclaimer: What would you do if I told you I did own the X-men huh?

Sorry if you got two update emails as soon as i updated thie i realiszed i forgot to put the line is, cause that is how eager i am.

Washington D.C.

Backup was called and the X-men now had Jubilee, Shadowcat and Kurt to help then defuse this potentially catastrophic situation. But seeing as Mystique's persona was growing weaker and her mind was again becoming a jumbled mess Professor Xavier could not narrow down her location other than the fact that she was in D.C. So they decide to split up. And meet back at the Lincoln memorial in an hour if no one found her, and if they did they were to use their comm links to inform the others.

D.C. Sky

The D.C. sky was dotted with black ominous helicopters searching for anything unusual. The drivers of these Helicopters were trained and knew what to do in almost any situation, although they were not taught what to do if there was a girl sitting on top of the Washington Monument.

With their huge megaphones they called out to her, "Put your ands up in a way that we can see them, now!" They barked at her

Rogue, not liking or understanding why they were yelling at her, curled up into fetal position and began to scream.

Seeing that she wasn't going to listen the captains did what they had to do, they opened fire

By the reflection pool beneath the W. Monument

Hank pulled up just in time to see Rogue make a force-field bubble around herself to protect her from the oncoming bullets. He quickly got on his comm. device and informed the other X-men where she was. Kurt appeared instantly brining Shadowcat with him and the others were on their way as quick as they could

Back on top of the monument

Rogue and her other personalities were beginning to get to get very upset about being shot at so by flying her hands out she extended her telekinetic bubble to such a large size that is hit the helicopters with a force that sent nearly everyone of them toppling to the ground

At the bottom

Luckily for the people at the bottom and the helicopters falling Jean Grey had just flown in at the right moment and with barley a crinkle of her brow she was able to steady the helicopters to a slow if not graceful landing. Upon this Wolverine flew in off of his motorcycle just in time to see Rogue teleport away.

"Shit." Logan shook his head angrily.

"She is still here, that much I can tell you." Jean stated still ice cold sounding not letting any emotion show.

"Then we spread out again, we need to go now it looks like the police are starting to stare." Scott said glancing at Kurt and Hank the only obvious mutants with them

Following Logan

Logan furious that he had let her get away weaved dangerously through the D.C. traffic, completely irreverent about of the security all over the city. He didn't have any idea were she might be but he hoped that is he traveled around enough he could pick up her scent. All over he picked up thousands of scents but none of them was his Marie's.

He was motoring as close to the capitol he could get when he caught it, she smelled slightly of lavender, vanilla, and the sweetest smell that only belonged to Rogue. He swerved into the entrance of the capitol only to be stopped by two Secret Service agents that only wished they were burley.

"Sir you may not go in there at this time without proper identification there is a congressional hearing going on." They informed him.

With a growl Logan tried to remain calm, "Look if you don't let me in there's a lot of innocent people are going to get hurt."

Taking this as a threat the agents grabbed their holstered guns, but before they could do anything rash Logan bashed their heads together with enough force to render them unconscious. With his now free entry way he advanced toward the domed building. Just as he was about to enter Rogue came into his peripheral vision right in front of the main staircase entrance. Realizing that this wasn't going to go well he remembered to call the rest of the x-men.

Logan disobeying Scotts orders to wait for backup headed toward the stairs. Just as he was nearing one of the guards must have matched Rogue's description from earlier with her face, and she was being surrounded.

"Put your hands up where I can see them." One of the now many guards dressed in suits shouted.

Rogue who had been staring intently at the entrance whipped her head around so see the encroaching brigade.

Before Logan could stop her, with a swift flip of the hand an officer of the law went flying into the building with enough force to crack the walls with another haunting crack coming from the man's neck. Then the others began to fire. With a quick raise of the hand the bullets stopped, with another flick they went flying back at the shooters. Rogue was began to get nervous she curled into fetal position and screamed, when she did this all of the glass shattered around the building.

At this time the rest of the X-Men got there, but there wasn't much they could do but watch in horror. Jean tried to enter her brain but got repelled backward into a trash can leaving a satisfying dent and her knocked out. Bobby watch open mouthed in shock, her called out to her "Rogue stop!"

Not listening to Bobby Rogue continued using various ways to destroy the incoming security. She glanced upwards and saw the helicopters that had began to circle, she raised her hands over her head and swiftly pulled them down, bringing the helicopters to the ground in many red and orange explosions. Storm sent a lightning bolt at her trying to knock her out, she did succeed in hitting her but all it did was make Rogue madder, it didn't seem to have any physical effect on the girl. Rogue turned around to face Storm she raised herself into the air and became surrounded by a mini tornado and sent a strong burst of wind at the white haired women sending her flying backwards, but Storm was able to stable her self and sent a stronger bolt at Rogue who just countered back with a lightning bolt of her own hitting Ororo with a crack, Storm was unconscious.

Bobby sent a wave of ice at her and Rogue simply hit is back with an even larger burst of fire overpowering it immediately sending Bobby back into the same trash bin as Jean with the same result.

The police and other security personal had just been watching this battle to see how it would go, they now saw that the other mutant team was losing so they decided to interfere again, they all opened fire not expecting her to do the same thing she did on the Washington monument making a huge telekinetic bubble around herself. She then expanded her bubble knocking down twenty soldiers sending one into the fountain which crumbled under the force of the blow.

Logan seeing this wasn't going to go well turned to Kurt and Shadowcat, "Go get everyone and anyone out of the capitol and into a safe area far, far away." Nightcrawler and Shadowcat were off instantly.

Scott shot a small beam of his optic blast up towards Rogue who held up her hand to simply stop it, Scott turned a dial all the way and caught Rogue by surprise sending her into the wall in between the two stair cases, causing a crack in the rock. She slowly stood up regaining her strength. Angry that there were people getting in the way of 'her' plan, seeing as that was the only clear thing in her head, she teleported to the roof of the building that was right before the dome. Lifting her self into the air she let out a deafening scream and sent multiple electric bolts, many hitting soldiers and trees a few coming at the x-men who barely managed to get out of the way.

Jean woke up with a groan to see Rogue floating in the air sending bolt after bolt of lightning at the soldiers and just in time Jean threw Scott out of the way of another bolt of lightning. "We have to stop this!" Jean shouted looking at the carnage around her. The sky was now black, soldiers' bodies lay splayed all over the lawn and many of her own teammates were lying unconscious. She astral projected herself up to the girl. "Rogue listen to me!" She yelled at the girl trying to get her attention, and she did. Rogue spun around to see the astral form of Jean who seamed to have an orange flaming aura around her. "You must stop look at what you are doing!"

"No!" Rogue screamed holding her head. She saw Jeans real form on the ground and using one of the many telepathic powers she had absorbed she pushed astral Jean back into the real Jean.

Being forced back into her body Jean let out an ear splitting scream.

"Jean!" Both Logan and Scott turned to look at her with worry in their eyes, Scott held the gaze but Logan saw that she was all right and immediately turned back to Rogue who was seemingly effortlessly knocking soldiers into the walls.

Nightcrawler teleported back to them, "The building is clear." He announced.

At that Rogue sent a burst of flame at the group of mutants. Wolverine took the brunt of the blow stepping in front of them. The rest of them only got a little scorched and blown back. Logan fell to his knees, much of his flesh burnt away.

Then the next blast of fire came but this time it was directed at the building, it quickly caught on fire, she sent another huge blast at it just to make sure.

Logan looked up at Marie while waiting for himself to heal. It was quite an image to see her floating in front of the capitol which was quickly burning down, her hair flowing around her head. He shook his head gruffly shaking off any emotion he had, knowing that if he was going to save her he had to do it with a clear head.

"Jean?" Logan called turning to face her, "Can you get me into her head?"

"I can try but she has been resisting me this whole time." She answered.

"I just need a little." Logan said walking over to the red head. Jean put her hands next to Logan's temples and projected his thoughts at Rogue.

"Marie?"

"Logan help!" Rogues internal voice was weak and almost muffled by the rest of the jumble in her brain.

"Marie you have to stop this!"

" I can't" Rogue whimpered, "GET OUT" a much angrier voice yelled and then Logan was forced out of her brain

Logan back to his self looked up at Rogue, she screamed loudly curling up in the air just floating there for a second, and then sending a huge shockwave of energy she extended herself spread eagle.

The blast hit the polices cars, S.W.A.T. vans, and soldiers with such a force that they were all blown backwards, the vehicles into walls and other buildings across the street and the soldiers and police into the vehicles. Jean just barley got a telekinetic wall up to protect the X-men and they still got blown back ten yards.

"Jean!" Logan yelled, seeing that Rogue was now falling towards the ground and killing speed. Jean quickly used her telekinesis to slow the girl setting her down on the now dirt, instead of the grant floor that was there only a few moments ago. Jean did that with her last effort and then fell back into unconsciousness.

Logan stood up and quickly ran with all of his might over to the now harmless girl lying on the ground.

He scooped her up into his arms holding the back of her head he pulled her face close to him . "Marie? Baby? Kid are you there? Can you here me?" He pleaded his voice weak.

She slowly tilted her head up "Logan?"
