Sorry it took so long for an update; I know it seems like I've disappeared from earth and it kind of feels like that at the moment, I'm just jumping from one thing to the next. Please don't hate me for the short update and the errors; life is just hectic at the moment. Anyway loved the reviews! Keep them coming!!! LOVE U ALL!
"Jean!" Scoot cried running after her, but it was too late. The wall across from the doorway to the Professor's office burst open as Fred came running through like a boulder, Jean being his target.
Not thinking Scott moved forward and pulled off his glasses, his eyes instantly forming two string red beams of energy that barely moved the big lug Fred, it was enough but just barely. He was son back on his feet and now turned his attention to Scott.
"What do you think you're doing jock boy?" Fred asked in his low and powerful voice.
"I've come to stop your fat ass from doing whatever idiotic plan you've gotten into your head!" Scott replied trying to keep him distracted as he tried to look past Fred and get a glimpse at Jean. If she was in there he couldn't see her, he really couldn't see anything, and at the unbelievable speed Fred was dodging at Scott didn't have much time to look.
Inside the room things were just as bad. When Jean's head had hit the wall she had felt momentary dizziness and was defenseless against the blue skinned woman who was trying to do something to the Professor. Even if she could stand she wouldn't know what to do, Jean had very little control over her powers as it was and if she actually tried using them she could cause yet even more damage.
Jean attempted to raise herself off the floor but fell back down instantly, her eyes never leaving the hands of the blue skinned woman who had completed attaching the yellow device around the Professor's neck. It looked too tight at first but it only seemed to grow tighter and before Jean knew it the Professor was going into convulsions and crying out in pain.
If Jean had one shred of sanity left it died when she heard the Professors cries. Extending her hand she sent a forceful mental blow that sent the table, the chairs, and the people inside the room right into the wall. But Jean didn't stop there, somehow through the wave of power she was suddenly feeling she managed to single out the blue skinned woman and throw her against the ceiling.
Crawling Jean made her way over to the Professor, her mental hold on the woman never faltering, and she grabbed at the device locked around the Professors neck. It was tight, so tight that Jean couldn't pull it off, but he was choking and Jean had to act fast. Her power's could do it but she'd really have to concentrate and that would mean letting go of the woman. It wasn't a hard decision and Jean acted quickly.

"What the…" Lance hollered after Kitty's surprisingly painful punch. The girl had tiny hands but she knew right where they needed to go and just how much force to apply.
"How could you!" Kitty hissed moving to walk past him, she was infuriated with him, that was obvious, but what was worse was that she was hurt. Lance and she had had their little quarrels but nothing like this, Lance was actually trying to hurt people and no matter how much she loved him Kitty knew what was right and what was wrong love or not.
With a scowl Lance turned sharply and grabbed her tiny arm and spun her towards him, "What am I suppose to do Kit? When Mystique wants something she means it! And it was either got through with this or lose you!"
Kitty flinched with pain as his hand began crushing her arm but she held his gaze and looked at him with all the rage she could muster, "You could've told me Lance! You could've told me and we could've worked it out but now look what you've done!" As if trying to emphasis Kitty's point there was suddenly a loud cry coming from beneath a pile of rubble. "Let me go Lance! I need to help her!"
"I can't Kitty or else Mystique will never let you join us!" protested Lance.
"I don't want to!" Kitty cried trying again to pull away from Lance.
"You don't know what you want!"
"Oh yea I do!" Kitty snapped using her powers to slide right out of Lance's reach. He tried to grab for her again but his hand slid right through her and before Lance knew it Kitty was running toward the school.

"Help! Help!" Amanda cried for what seemed like the hundredth time. She wasn't injured by she was trapped beneath a large piece of the roof and if it crashed in he could forget her legs. She kept on calling for Kurt but she was very aware that he wasn't anywhere nearby and even if she was he couldn't hear her through the other screaming students.
Amanda had curled up into a ball with her hands over her neck as she continued to scream. Beforehand the rooftop piece had been holding up but after another violent earthquake it was sliding more and more.
"No this!" Amanda said to herself, "I don't want to die like this! I don't want to! Kurt where are you? Please help me! Somebody!"
Suddenly two hands grabbed at Amanda's shoulders nearly scaring her to death and next thing she knew Amanda was being pulled out of the rubble in one swift motion. For a moment it felt like she had had no bones and she had been as light as wind but Amanda didn't question it. All she knew was that she was outside again with Kitty holding onto her tightly.
"I'm not like as cute as Kurt but I'll have to do," Kitty said with a smile as she helped Amanda to her feet.
"No you're ten times better, thank you Kitty!" Amanda said holding onto her friend. She made the decision then that if this was what Bayville High was going to be like Amanda would be the first to drop out.

It took maybe five seconds tops for Rogue to knock Toad out. One kick, a little flip, and a good whack to the head and he was gone. Having the Cajun's fighting skills wasn't bad at all but she had only a little portion of them and they were fading, unlike his memories which were flashing through her head stabbing her heart at the same time.
Rogue angrily hit her head with both of her fists and cried, "Get oughta mah head! Get oughta mah head!" still the memories kept flooding through her.
A childhood birthday party, a party that got a little too wild, a brunette and her sister, a strip club, Henries wedding, a blonde with dark eyes, best friends, bar fights, sex, sex, and more sex, that girl again, a blonde, the first, the second, the fiancée, the preparations, the letters she still sent him, the true "I Love You's" and all the false ones, murder, death, marriage.
Falling to the ground Rogue let out a horrific scream that froze the blood of the nearby Brotherhood. Even Mystique, who was making her sneaky get away wanted to go back and comfort her daughter, but no one came to help, they couldn't help. It was just Rogue and Remy at an ultimate battle for her mind and Remy already had damaged her weakest spot, her heart.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Remy awoke there were still people running around in mass confusion and terror while he was still on the ground feeling like he had taken in one to many shots.
"Ugh my head," he grumbled resting himself on his elbows. It took him a minute to recollect where he was. Not like he wanted to come back from the sweet dream of home he had been having but when his thoughts finally started to make sense his eyes widened and he looked around for Rogue.
"Rogue! Rogue!" he cried as he pulled himself up off the ground.
The parking lot was trashed, every car looked like it had been run over by a boulder, and the school was collapsed to the ground at this point.
Remy had no idea who would plan such a massive attack on a school. For once he was certain it wasn't the Thieves Guild it was someone who had more power and more mutants than they did but Remy didn't have much time to consider this because he immediately went searching for Rogue. She wasn't hard to find.
Lying on the ground about a foot away from an unconscious Toad, Rogue had her head buried in her knees and she was crying and shaking violently. She was mumbling to herself but he couldn't hear a word she said.
"Cherie!" Remy said bending down beside her, "Cherie, common we gotta get oughta here, de whole place is ruined!"
She didn't say anything she just let out a loud sob and mumbled again.
"We have to go…" Remy began as he rested his hands on her shoulders. She immediately froze up before kicking him with the strength of a man in the stomach.
"Don't tocuh meh ya liar! Ya damn liar! Why de hell did ya lie to meh!"
Though Remy was on the ground again in worse pain than before there was no way he could miss the fact that her accent had changed. Had she absorbed him? Remy thought to himself before a sudden and dreadful feeling of terror washed over him. What memories did she have? How detailed were they? It had never occurred to him that this would happen because he never wanted to think about it. He knew that if she found out about all the things he was hiding he would lose her and that scared him more than anything ever had in his life.
"Cherie," Remy tried again as he looked towards her, only he didn't look into pure green eyes, they were still green but they had a hint of red, his red, lingering in them.
"Fuck you!" Rogue cried again throwing punch that sent Remy's face right into the pavement. Rogue didn't even notice the blood on her hand as she continued, "Ya been engaged dis whole damn time an ya never said anythin! What happened to de ya'll never lie to meh! What happened to de ah'll become a beter man cherie!"
"Rogue… I…" Remy began when he suddenly felt a foot crush the side of his cheek. She still had some of his fighting skills left and Remy was a damn good fighter.
"Ah don want to hear it! Ah knew from the beginin ya would be trouble! So stay away from meh an de X-men, go back to New Orleans an get married for all ah care! Just… just… stay away from meh!" Rogue's voice finally broke as the last traces of Remy disappeared and tears began to spill from her eyes. Giving Remy one last good kick in the stomach she walked away.
"Rogue!" Remy tried one last time but it was too late, she had already ran out of sight.
(yeah sorry I know so short and quick I'll get back in the mode soon hopefully! but OMG the big change is coming up, I'm going to like skip three or four months)
