Thanks for putting up with me you guys…. :D
WAH! I just heard the Deadpool is gonna be in the second season of Wolverine and the X-men! *MIND EXPLOSION* WAAAAAAAAAAH!
-
Rogue knew fear. It was her constant companion. When there was no family, there was fear. When there was no Logan, no X-men, there was fear. When there was no love, there was fear.
But not now. Right now, the very moment she was about to die, there was no fear. It was the right thing. Sometimes a little self-sacrifice made everything okay. A little life lesson she took from Remy LeBeau.
The world moved in slow motion, as if trying to extend her last few moments.
Her foot fell on the other side of the cage.
The voices surged in her ears, screaming at her to run, fight, stop. To live.
Deadpool moved forward. His dead eyes reflected his inability to control his own movements.
There was a pain in her chest.
Blood in her mouth.
I can't believe you. Remy said sullenly.
She did the right thing. Magneto took her side. The other voices mumbled agreement.
Do you hear that? Logan spoke up.
Rogue cut off her gasping momentarily to call upon Logan's senses. There were several curios sounds that she was immediately aware of. The sudden cut of a jet engine. Hundreds of stomping feet. The rumble of thunder. A loud crack. A familiar snikt. And something else…
Slap. Scrape. Scrape. Slap. Slap. Scrape.
What was that?
Scrape. Slap. Slap. Scrape. Scrape. Scrape.
It sounded like…
Scrape. Slap. Scrape. Slap. Boom.
Playing cards.
Rogue choked on blood and tears, crumpling down to her knees.
He's alive… The thought sang through her.
And you're dead. Remy added bitterly.
Deadpool's muscles had remained stiff, firmly keeping the sword embedded in her chest to the point where it was the only thing keeping her upright at the moment. It was situated in the wrong side of her chest to cause immediate results, the intent was a more painful one. She would either bleed to death, or drown.
He's alive. She thought again, laughing and coughing. The bastard's alive. She laughed even harder, hacking up blood.
I don't see how this is funny. Remy snipped.
The sound of more explosions polluted the air.
I don't know why I'm laughing, Rogue admitted, smile playing on her face. I'm just happy, I s'pose.
The explosions got closer and Rogue's vision started to dim. She wondered if she was going to be able to see him one last time before it went out completely.
Dammit. She wanted to see him.
Gathering up her strength, she called upon Kitty's psyche and phased through the blade in her chest and Deadpool.
Notes on Katherine 'Kitty' Pryde's powers-
Kitty can phase through any solid object as long as she holds her breath for the duration of the trip through it and holds her concentration. Any technological object she phases through will be ruined. Some technologies have been adapted so that they would not be immediately destroyed by such an occurrence, but still would not be able to survive more than two or three phasings.
Once- when Kitty ran through Deadpool's chest in a attempt to escape security.
Twice- when Rogue phased through the shrapnel of the explosion.
Three Times- when Rogue phased through him so that she could stand up.
Deadpool muscles contracted violently, as if something had just sent a jolt through his entire body.
"AH!" He screamed, dropping the sword.
"AH!" Rogue screamed, stopping the phase and falling to the bloody floor.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Deadpool finished his scream with an insane laugh. "I can move! I. CAN. KILL!" He wiggled his fingers as if they were the most novel thing in the world. But, hey, Rogue had never lost complete control of her body before, maybe they were. "You!" Deadpool suddenly pointed to her and Rogue cough up some more blood in shock.
The sound of explosions got closer. Outside the door maybe.
"You saved me! Like, in that one story- uh- Goddammit, what was it?" He tapped his finger against his chin. "Sleeping Beauty! That was it!" He exclaimed.
"Well, I don't really think-." Rogue started, her speech was hindered slightly by the gaping hole in her lung.
"Nonsense!" Deadpool waved off whatever she was about to say. "This means you get a kiss!"
"AH!" Her high pitched screech pierced the air. She did not want Deadpool inside her head.
Rogue tried to scuttle away, again, only to be hindered by the gaping hole in her lung. Why couldn't she just die?
Deadpool's hands landed on her shoulders, hauling her upright into a dipped kiss at the same moment the door exploded inward.

Despite the deck of cards in his hands, it was very obvious to everyone that Gambit was not playing games.
They hadn't asked how he knew where the Weapon X base was. They didn't ask a lot of stuff they probably should have. And Remy wasn't about to volunteer the information until Rogue was safe.
Because, after that, Wolverine could stab him as many times as he wanted.
Right now, he was too busy to die.
Remy's metal boots clicked against the floor as he walked out of the flames. He whistled his 'Thieving Tune' because it helped him concentrate on not overcharging the cards and killing everyone.
Several more explosions occurred behind him and he pulled out another deck of cards.
He stepped over a few bodies and continues his trek forward, not to be stopped by the eclectic group of mutants trying to prevent him from reaching his destination.
It was also very obvious to everyone that Remy LeBeau was very angry at the moment.
"Well, hell," Bobby said, backing up from one of the glowing cards that had landed close to him. "I'm not gonna fight him."
"You know…" Kitty drawled, glancing at Logan. "He's not actually a bad guy. Maybe if we invited him to be an X-."
"I don't want to hear it Pryde." He growled, sniffing the air and following in the clear path Gambit had already made. He looked over his shoulder with a grunt, and Storm understood this to be 'Would you mind terribly to start a small rain to put out the flames?'
"AH!" A scream was heard from somewhere in the now nearly destroyed building.
"AH!" Another scream
"AHAHAHAHAHA! I can move! I. CAN. KILL!"
There was a general 'Oh, shit' moment among the X-men, which seemed to be happening more and more as of late.
The explosions quickly escalated and became larger and more violent as Remy followed his ears to the origin of the scream.
"AH!" Another scream, this one higher in pitch and filled with more panic.
Logan reached the door first and slashed at it with all of his strength and claws, but got no where. It was made of adamantium.
"Move." Remy barked. He charged the door and though the door itself didn't explode, the wall surrounding it gave in immediately. "…What the hell?" He said when he saw what was going on on the other side of the door.
Rogue was pin wheeling her arms, trying to escape the apparent kiss that Deadpool had somehow pulled her into. His mask had been lifted slightly to allow lip contact.
Mumbled screams were escaping Rogue's sealed lips that sounded something like "GET. HIM. OFF."
Remy and Logan were happy to oblige. (violently)
Rogue fell back to the ground, chest wound closing up quickly and a insatiable craving for chimichangas. Deadpool's psyche blathered complete and utter nonsense on the inside of her head about a little girl at a computer writing this down, laughing her ass off.*
"Cherie?" She felt warm hands on her shoulders. "Are y' alright?"
Rogue opened her eyes and found her favorite pair of demon eyes staring back. She smiled.
Before words could escape her lips the sound of echoing footsteps running down the hallway that had just been destroyed took up the majority of her attention.
Everyone turned towards the doorway.

*Which I was.
Allrighty chickies, this is a pretty important inquiry. Either we can have one more chapter that pretty much sums everything up, OR a minimum of five more chapters that has a more epic solution, but will mean that you have to suffer my crazy for 5. More. Chapters. (does anyone really want that?)
I leaving this one up to you guys…
1 simple solution
Or.
5 Epically action-packed, crazy-filled, brain-washing, MRD-killing, Romy-filled, explosions of crazy.
The choice is yours. (Drop me a review for your vote please! (Because, honestly, I wouldn't want to put up with my crazy as all sin stories any more than necessary))
*Everyone gets a high-five*
