Okay, peoples. I am NOT dead, and I have FINALLY ended my writer's block. Hopefully this chapter will make up for it. And I promise that I will work on Burns and Private School.
Remy awoke with a groan as he felt something cold and hard against his wrists. Looking up, he saw that he was in a cold cell with a small window above him. "Rogue? Chere?!" he called as he tried to stand, but found more chains and cuffs keeping him in place.
"Hello, Prince Lebeau." came a cold voice that Remy recognized as Wanda.
"Que do y' want, Wanda?" he sneered as he tried to stand again.
"For you to suffer. I already told you." she said as she kneeled in front of him and held his chin.
Remy glared at her and tried to pull away, but Wanda held him in place. "Do you want to see your girlfriend?" she asked as she held up a staff with a crystal ball on it.
"Que is DAT?" Remy asked as a mist appeared in the ball.
"Didn't I tell you? I'm a witch." Wanda said as she put the orb inbetween them and it showed Rogue riding on Coup Fatal. "She left you, Remy."
Remy looked away from the orb and to the ground. "She...she absorbed moi. Somet'in' went wrong wit' 'er powers." he whispered while looking out the window. "Let moi go, Wanda. Remy NEEDS t' help 'er."
Wanda narrowed her eyes and stood. She pulled her blood-red hood over her face and said, "You need to help her? She ABSORBED you! You almost DIED if it wasn't for ME."
"So y' could torture moi? Forget it. Jus' let moi go." he ordered as his eyes glowed dangerously.
"And why should I? I used a spell on her and made her powers GROW. She RAN from you, Remy." Wanda said as she cleared her orb.
"Dat's 'cause she was scared." Remy defended as he began to charge the floor.
"You wouldn't blow this place up." she said as her blue eyes glowed icily.
"And why not?" he growled out as the charge spread.
"Because then you couldn't help Rogue." Wanda said as she left.
Remy's eyes widened and he leaned against the wall. He lowered his head and let his hair fall in his eyes. "Mon dieu. Remy gotta get t' Rogue."
Jean stared at Scott in shock before looking down at the ring. "Scott...I...this is extrememly wonderful of you to ask, but I'm not exactly sure what to say." she said as a faint blush formed on her cheeks.
"Say yes." he said as he cupped her cheek with his other hand. (I hope your happy Ratgirl1. This makes me wanna BARF!)
Jean smiled and kissed him gently. When she pulled away she said five words. "Of course I'll marry you."
She then lept on him and started kissing him repeatedly. He pulled away and whispered, "I love you."
"I love you too, Scott."
Rogue let Coup Fatal lead her through the forest when she felt a pair of eyes on her. She turned slightly, but saw no one. Shrugging, Rogue turned back to see a man about her age with shaggy brown hair. Leaning agains tthe saddle, Rogue asked, "May ah help ya?"
"Me? Sure. Turn around and leave this forest. It belongs to me." he said as he crossed his arms.
"And who exactleh ARE ya?" she asked as she crossed her arms.
"Lance." he said as he held out his hands. "And I'm about to rock your world."
Rogue rolled her eyes until she saw a huge crack form under her and her horse. Screaming in shock, she lept off of the horse and rolled across the ground until she reached a tree. She looked up and saw Lance turn towards her and take it up a knotch. "Crap." she mumbled whle doing a back flip and having her hat fall off while her hair tumbled down. "E'en worse." she muttered as she landed in a crouch.
Lance looked at her for a minute before recognition seemed to cross his face. "You must be Rogue. The princess that Wanda is after."
"WHAT!?" Rogue asked in shock before pulling out her sword.
Lance smirked and pulled out his own. "Oh this'll be fun." he said as their swords met in a loud clatter.
