Rogue pulled her sword away and twirled around before smirking at Lance and launching for his neck. He blcked seconds before it pierced and let sparks fly as he twirled her sword out of her grip and into a tree. She stared at him with wide eyes before ducking as he tried cutting her shoulder. "Whah are ya fahghtin' me!?" she asked as she kicked his hand and sent the sword clattering to the ground.

He shrugged and they began fist fighting as he said, "I was hired."

Rogue blocked his fist and twisted it behind his back before kicking him to the ground. She kicked his side and he grabbed her ankle before throwing her to the ground. Coughing up dust, Rogue stood and jumped as he sent a foot out to kick her knees. Landing in a crouch, she glared at him before peeling off her gloves. "I already know about your powers. You touch a person with your skin and they fall unconcious." he said as her fist whizzed past his ear.

Rogue found her advantage and smirked before pulling out a dagger. She flung it at him and he tripped before falling to the ground. Kneeing him in the gut, she sat above him and smirked. "Mah powehs will neveh onleh work through mah fingehs." she said before kissing him.

"Agh!" he exclaimed before taking his last breath.

Rogue smirked and stood before sheathing her dagger and sword. She walked over to Coup Fatal and rubbed the horse's neck before mounting her. The horse winnied and Rogue decided to lead it out of the forest before nightfall.

(Wanda's castle. *shudders* Oh boy)

Wanda stood above her charcoal pot and continued to mix in ingrediants. "Eleka naman, naman. A tum, a tum, eleka naman. Fiyero!" she cried as she waved her hands over the pot and sparks flew with a flourish. (whatever you think it should be)

Wanda covered her eyes and smiled evilly as she tossed in a troll's foot. "Yim the vrrtep uniltìranyu to the Utral Aymokriyä fte he may choose to fpe' ngati away forever." (basically saying that Remy has to give up love or he will be bonded to a tree and never escape. Don't ask me)

The light of the potion exploded and Wanda smirked as she walked to her septer and looked inside. Rogue was cantering her horse through the trees and Wanda turned to the sky. "Sunny is blinding, sunny is hot, give me rain and everything you got!" she cried as lightning flashed through the clowds.

She returned to the septer and smiled before saying, in a chilling tone, "That's it princess. You'll find your prince and then I'll slice your throat and watch him rot."

(Remy's cell.)

Remy listened to the lightning and pounding rain before falling against the wall. "Mon dieu, chere. Sil vous plait be safe." he said as his hair fell into his eyes.

An hour passed before Remy opened to the creaking of a door opening. There was a person in a hooded cloak holding a dagger. She walked towards him and knelt in front of him. "Who are y'?" he asked while struggling with the chains.

"An ami." came the whisper as she cut the bonds tieing his feet together.

Then a fragile hand pulled off a glove and turned to gel. "MERDE!" he said before kicking her away. "Y' be Bella's ami! Y' be Anya."

Anya groaned as she sat up and held her side. Her cloak fell off to reveal her auburn hair and wild eyes. She stood slowly and Remy took in what she looked like. Her hair was still cascading down her back but she now wore the deepest purple he had ever seen along with black gloves, boots, and a cloak. Her eyes shined brightly as she walked over to him and turned her hand into skin again. The coldness of her fingers touched his cheek as she stared into his demon eyes. "Listen t' moi." she said in her honeysuckle voice. "Ah'm trahin' t' help y', princeh. Let moi do dat."

She let go of his face and touched the metal on his wrists before slowly turning her hand into gel. The metal seemed to dull and weaken as the gel sucked up the organic material inside. Eventually the cuffs became too weak and fell off of Remy with a small clank. "Come." she said as she pulled her glove back on and pulled him to the door.

He pulled her to a halt and placed a hand on her shoulder and turned her to him. "Why are y' helpin' moi?"

Anya looked to the ground and pulled her shoulder out of his grasp before turning and going down the hall. He followed her warily as she took a left and ducked as Wanda came down the hall. Remy knelt behind her and lay closely as she shoved him under the table and hid with him. They sat there quietly before Wanda left and they let out shaky breaths. "Dat was close." Remy muttered as he stood and helped her up.

She only nodded before putting her cloak back on and slipped into Wanda's potion room. Remy slowly followed and asked, "Why are we 'ere? Remy t'ought we were escapin'."

"Hush." Anya whispered as she looked above the pot and smelled it. "Ugh. Bondin' spell. Those t'in's are the worst. Especialleh if y' be part o' it."

She took a couple of steps back before turning to Remy. "Don' touch ANEHT'ING." she ordered as she began to look through spell books. "It gotta be 'ere somewhere."

Remy shrugged and looked over the pot to see something inside. An image of Rogue floated above it. The image seemed so real that he reached down to touch it. Anya hadn't been paying attention until she heard the light splash of liguid. She turned abruptly with wide eyes. "Non." she gasped out as the liquid slipped up his arm. "Remy." she cried as she yanked his arm away.

Remy groaned and knelt to the floor. Anya groaned before knelting in front of him and lifting his head. "Remy...da was a love killeh bond. It's bondin' t' y' and killin' y' amour fer Rogue."

He didn't seem to hear her because, in that moment, he pulled her into a kiss.
