So I fixed 12 some how it got uploaded wrong thank to Laylayay for letting me know!
Rogue was still a bundle of excitement as she stepped off the blackbird with The Professor, Emma, Storm and Logan and into Boston. It was seven am but it was already warm.
As they made their way to the Hospital where Carol's body was Rogue began to get nervous. What if they couldn't do it? What if something happen to Carol? How many things could go wrong? She wondered.
"We won't know if it will work until they try." Carol said.
"I know but what if.." Rogue started
"Rogue calm down everything will be okay." Carol said.
"I'm sorry. I know your worried too."
"I am but I'm praying that everything works out."
They made it to hospital, to the right floor and then finally into Carol room. Rogue stared at Carol's body lying on the bed. The moment Rogue had drained Carol popped into her head and a wave a sadness washed over her.
"Not your fault." Carol reminded her.
"I know. I know." Rogue replied.
"Rogue are you and Carol ready?" The Professor questioned.
"Yes we are." Rogue answered.
"Okay then we shall begin."
Rogue felt Emma and The Professor enter her mind. She felt them gather Carol presence in her brain. The work was slow and Rogue felt herself getting tired even thought she wasn't doing anything. After what seemed like hours she felt them lift Carol out of her. It felt like a weight being taken off of her.
She watched as Carol's eyes fluttered and opened. "Rogue?" Carol said in a small scratchy voice.
"Carol it worked your not in here anymore." Rogue said. "But I can still feel your powers?" Rogue turned to the professor questioningly.
"You may still have the imprint of here powers in you." The Professor said in a tired voice.
After the doctors were brought in to check the physical aspect of Carol heath. And Carol was reunited with her family, Carol said goodbye to Rogue.
"Keep in touch. Just because I'm not in your head anymore doesn't mean I don't wanna hear from you." Carol said with a smile.
"You too Carol. We will talk soon." Rogue said following the rest of her group out.
Rogue was happy that Carol could have her life back but she did miss her. Once back on the plane she fell asleep against Logan feeling happy.
Almost a full day later Rogue awake with a start in the room she shared with Kitty. The drapes were drawn but she could see sunlight peeking through. Rogue sat up feeling light headed. Man she felt hungry. She waited for Carol to make a comment about what to eat and then remembered that she wasn't there anymore. That moment was sad and happy all at the same time.
Rogue headed to the Kitchen and found Kitty and Piotr there. "Hey," Rogue said.
Kitty whipped her head around. "Rogue your okay! How are you feeling." Kitty asked.
"Fine I guess a little light headed." Rogue answered.
"The professor said that would be normal. Just like you sleeping for twenty hours. Your brain is adjusting." Kitty said.
"I was asleep for twenty hours?"
"Yeah Gambit was really worried. Him and Scott keep getting in to fights. Logan dragged him down to the danger room so he would focus on something else."
"I better go rescue him then."
"The Professor said you need to go see him after you get something to eat. Gambit will have to wait a bit."
"I will make you something." Piotr said before Kitty could offer.
Rogue agreed graciously and after she was done she thanked them and headed toward the Professor office.
After being given a clean bill of mental heath and an order to take it easy for a while from the Professor and Emma, Rogue headed to the Danger Room. As she entered the viewing room she saw Storm standing shaking her head.
"What's going on?" Rogue asked.
Storm turned and smiled at Rogue. "How are you feeling?"
"Tired but otherwise okay. A little lonely maybe." Rogue said.
Movement caught Rogue's eye as she looked towards the viewing room window. Remy was sparring with Logan. Well more like Remy was jumping out of Logan's way and Logan was trying to pin him down. She could hear Logan mumble something about monkeys through the microphone.
Storm went to the microphone in the viewing room and announced that Rogue was awake and in the room. Both men stopped in the middle of the fight and looked up at the viewing room. Rogue laughed as the men eyed each other warily and headed out of the Danger Room.
Neither one had showered and had headed straight toward the viewing room wanting to be the first to see Rogue. As they approached her she said. "I'm not hugging either one of you, you both smell."
Remy was the first with a comeback. "I thought you liked the way I smell."
Rogue wrinkled her nose. "Not when its of B.O. And sweat."
Logan interrupted their banter asking "How ya feeling kid?"
"A little warn out I guess. It seems strange not to hear Carol anymore. I miss her but I'm glad she is back where she is suppose to be." Rogue replied.
"Gumbo here was having a breakdown when you didn't wake up right away. Wouldn't calm down no matter how the Professor tried to placate him." Logan said with a smirk.
Remy only scowled at Logan.
"Had to drag him down here so he wouldn't haunt your room till you woke up." Logan continued ignoring Remy.
"Worried about me swamp rat?" Rogue said addressing Remy.
"You looked so pale when Logan brought you off the plane." Remy said still scowling.
Rogue soften and approached him. "Remy I'm fine. I promise." She put her hand on his cheek and kissed him.
Remy wrapped his arms around her and deepened the kiss. Lost in the kiss they didn't hear Logan growl and unsheathe his claws. Rogue suddenly pulled away. "Eww you really smell. Go shower."
Remy laughed and looked over her shoulder. Seeing Logan's claws out he asked "Problem?"
Rogue turned and looked behind her. "Logan put those away." Rogue said. "Now." She said loudly when he didn't comply.
Logan muttered as he sheathed his claws. "You're pushing it Gumbo."
Remy only smirked at him. Before Logan could gut him for the smirk Kitty came through the wall. "Hey Rogue we have to go do a final fitting for our bridesmaids dresses. If your feeling up to it would you like to come?" Kitty's eyes seem to plead Rogue.
"Oh yeah I guess." Rogue said. "Will you be okay here?" Rogue asked Remy as she glanced at Logan.
"I'll be fine. I will hang out with Petey boy." Remy replied.
Rogue bit her lip and then turned to Logan. "Please don't gut him while I'm gone."
"No promises." Logan replied.
Rogue sighed. "Fine." She gave Remy a chaste kiss. "I'll be back in a bit."
"Don't worry I will try to stay in one piece while you are gone."
Rogue rolled her eyes and followed Kitty out the door.
