"He can't hear ya! Stop callin' 'im!" 'Gambit' screams at the young girl as he continues to beat her. "Remy!" a strangled cry pushes past Rogue's lips. Her body wears a sweater of bruises, coloring every visible layer of Rogue's skin. Her lip pours blood from a fresh wound and her eye holds closed, folded over with colors of black and purple. She pulls herself up with her arms, sitting into an upward position. 'Gambit' digs his foot into her side, knocking her back into the ground. Tears roll past her cheek, falling to her neck. "Gambit just stop." she silently whispers, talking to the young man that stands above her. "How could 'e eva' love ya. Ya a fool if you even t'ink for a second he could love da likes o' yah. He wants someone to touch. You can't even kiss him wit'out killin' 'im. And D'at's all he wants ya for. Ju't a quick one night stand and d'en he'll find himself ano'der fille like 'e always does. He don' care about ya, no matter what 'e does, he don' care! Ya ju't a girl d'at don't know how to take da hint dat he don't like ya. Just stay away from him. It would 'elp us all. He hates you!" Rogue's hands clench into fists at the man's words. "No he doesn't!" Rogue's screams fill the air. She lunges herself at the man, just missing his head. He sidesteps away from her, grabbing her legs and whipping her to the ground. Pain throbs through Rogue's body, her broken ribs ache against her skin with every new blow she takes. Gambit bends down to her ear and whispers gently with all honesty "I hate yah. And ah t'ink it would be best if ya would just leave me alone." silent tears fall from her eyes, blurring her vision of the man as he walks silently away from her. "Don't go." she curls herself gently, careful not to bend her ribs too much, into a ball. She rocks herself back and forth. "Please don't go."
"Hank look at d'is." Remy points to the purple and blue bruises appearing slowly on Rogue's body. She looked like she had just came out of a closed cage match. Her normally beautiful white, porcelain body had been replaced with a skinier, bruised and bloodied one even though she hadn't been moved from the bed. "I think that whatever is happening in her mind, it's affecting her unconscious body.". Rogue's lip immediately rips open and begins to spew blood onto the bed.
"Oh my," Hank runs towards Rogue, cloth in hand. He hands the cloth over to Gambit who hesitantly pushes the cloth to her lip. She stifles a cry and holds her ribs in pain. Her body violently thrashes, as if fighting an unknown force. Gambit jumps back quickly. He holds her face in his hands as her body continues to shake violently "Chere, ya have Ta get t'rough d'is fo' me." Rogue's eyes open up widely, staring past Gambit. "Rogue you-" Rogue's silent cry stops Gambit.
"Oh my dear girl don't cry." Sinister's hand reaches out to the young girl, caressing her cheek. "Screw you."
Sinister's soft, bitter smile turns to an evil grin as he stands next to an unknowing Gambit. Only Rogue could see this man hidden in her subconscious, looking as if to be in the real world with her friends. He leans into Remy's ear and whispers to Rogue "Now now, you don't want your poor Gambit to be killed do you?" a spark goes off inside of Rogue's head,
"Don't hurt him." Rogue's distant eyes look beyond Gambit. "Who are ya talking Ta Rogue?" he grips onto her shoulders, digging his fingers into her skin. She doesn't even flinch at his touch like she usually would. "He neva' did anything to anyone!" Rogue continues to yell at nothing that neither Hank nor Gambit could see. "But he hates you don't you see. He doesn't care for you like you think he does." Her eyes slowly move to Gambit who begins to scream at her. "He doesn't care."
"Chere talk Ta me!" Gambit shakes Rogue's shoulders and stares daggers into her eyes. Her eyes slowly move away from the invisible figure to stare into Gambit's red on black eyes. Her emerald eyes turn a light green, her face shows no true sign of emotion. She shoves his hands off of her before she falls into unconsciousness again. "Hank what was d'at?" Remy's eyes hold fear as he stares at the blue man. "I'm not quite sure, Gambit." He stares in awe of the young girl on the bed. What was happening to her? "I think it would be best if we had her take a few X-rays and bring her down to the med bay." Remy nodded in agreement and got a stretcher for Rogue. Remy carried her onto it and lead her down to the med bay. Whispers whisked through the mansion as the students stood staring at the young, and very bruised girl. "What is happening to her?" Piotr runs to Rogue's side, staring down at her as he holds her hand in his own. "We don't really know." Beast sighs heavily. Remy stares at their interlocked fingers and feels a slight pang of what, jealousy? Everyone knew Piotr had a thing for Rogue and she might feel the same for him. Maybe he should just let her go. Let someone else deal with this crazy stuff going on in her mind. Piotr obviously cared, but Remy didn't know if he would feel comfortable about her being in Piotr's hands. He shook off the thought and grunted, "Come on, we have to get her down into the med bay." Piotr slowly released Rogue's hand and pecked her on the cheeks. Gambit stood still, frozen in time until Piotr had left Rogue's side. He silently brought Rogue back to the medical bay and prepared her for X-rays and a CAT scan. The professor would be there soon to sort through her mind after the tests.
Hey guys, sorry it's taken a while to get another chapter out. I've been at my dad's for awhile and he doesn't have wifi. So I'm very sorry that Rogue's still in a coma and everything, but (SPOILER ALERT) she'll be up and out of it in the next chapter. Britney is a random character that I created in the last chapter just to add DRAMA. But will Remy give in to Britney and what does Sinister want with Rogue? Will Rogue believe that Remy hates her and move on? Find out in the next chapter, coming out very soon. The usual drill still applies, REVIEW 3
