An: Sorry I haven't updated in a while my computer is going crazy and
someone else in the household have been downloading weird things. Anyway
that's no excuse.

Rogue opened her eyes. She realized that she wasn't in her room, or in the med lab. She shot up but regretted it as soon as she did. She got up to fast and it made her head spin. She then remembered seeing two Remy's and two Logan's. She felt panic grow in her belly.
"Don't be frightened Rogue we aren't going to hurt you," it was a male voice.
"You Morph?" Rogue asked.
"Yeah, Marie." He replied back.
"Don't call me that!" she tried to scream but her voice hurt.
"You're sick, you need rest." He said.
"I'll rest when I'm safe and at home, with the X-men or the brotherhood anybody but her," Rogue said.
"You are safe I did say we weren't going to hurt you. And home for you is anywhere you are accepted, and you aren't feared here."
"You obviously don't know Mystique very well, she has betrayed me and her own birth son. She cannot be trusted at all. She does what is best for her and that's all," Rogue said and sighed.
"Why do you think she adopted you Rogue?" he asked.
"What are you a shrink? "She asked but he gave her a look and she groaned. "She adopted me because Destiny foresaw into the future and told her I would either be powerful or whatever," she said.
"No Rogue she felt such guilt for what had happened to Kurt she tried to make it right by helping the needy. Which in her eyes was adopting a child and she did but Magneto found out and he tried to experiment on you as well and she refused to let him. She also refused to get rid of you like she did Kurt so she left you in the hands of a well trusted friend, Irene," he said in a very professional tone.
Rogue didn't want to even consider that explanation but it made sense, and what if she were wrong and she hated her for nothing? ~ Kurt must be seriously rubbing off on me if I am willing to consider this, ~ Rogue thought.
"Did you really find out what was wrong with me?" She asked after a long moment of silence.
"Yes actually we did," Mystique said as she emerged from the shadows.
Rogue right side of her lip began to twitch and her eyes narrowed. But then she remembered what this Morph guy just said and she stopped. "So what is it and I swear if you lie." she trailed knowing that she didn't even need to finish the rest of the sentence.
"It's quite extraordinary actually," Morph said.
"What?" Rogue asked.
"The psyches in your head are well.I don't really have any really good easy words for it," Mystique said.
"Never stopped you before," Rogue mumbled under her breath as she crossed her legs Indian style and rested her elbow on her knee and her head in the palm of her hand and pouted but didn't really know it.
"She wants to say that you already know that when you absorb somebody there is a part of them that stays in you head," he began to say.
"Duh I already know that. Mind telling me something I don't know?" she said annoyed.
"Well not only does part of their life energy stay as a result of your power but also pieces of information and temporarily cloning of their gene as well," Mystique said.
Rogue raised her eyebrow in question and made a noise with the back of her throat in confusion. "Cloning?" she repeated.
"Yeah like when you absorb Sabertooth your hair gets long and your hands grow into claws, or when you absorb Beast you slouch like a gorilla, or even me you turn blue and your eyes become one solid color," Mystique said.
"And?" Rogue asked in anticipation.
"The information that you self-consciously collect are only extremely small bits and pieces. And if you were to absorb enough of the same person or even different people all the bits and pieces could become one and form their own type of gene," Morph said.
"So you are trying to tell me that the voices in my head have with out my knowledge created a whole new mutant gene inside me?" Rogue said in disbelief.
"In other words yes," Mystique said holding a few stapled papers and tossed them so that they were in front of Rogue.
"There is all the information which makes it true, look at it if you don't believe me," Mystique said.
Rogue was about to say something really smart but as much as she hated her she wasn't heartless. "I believe you, besides if it's the reason I'm here then you must want me to join your team again or something," Rogue wasn't heartless but she wasn't a punk either.
"Actually I just wanted to keep you happy by hiding Craig's death from you but when you came to him or rather his dad for help it made realize some possible reasons why," Mystique said.
"Which would be?" Rogue asked.
"You either don't trust them to take it lightly or you just don't trust them. Maybe you think they don't trust you or you just forgot to mention it. You're a smart girl Rogue and nothing really gets past you," Mystique praised.
"Yeah well the death of a friend did," she said.
"It didn't even take long for you to realize but I bet it just took long for you to actually say it, don't ever doubt yourself," Morph said.
"Okay but why am I here?" Rogue asked suspiciously.
The two just looked at each other then at Rogue. "Have you been noticing anything strange with yourself or has anyone pointed something out to you lately?" Morph asked.
Sorry but it's late and I'm on a laptop and the battery is low. Hope you like and you know just how to tell me.
