Kitty and Kurt sat in her room with Evan's tape of their last gathering. Rogue had mostly talked with Gambit. Kitty had pushed her slightly, sending her into Gambit's arms. She blushed a light pink, which was unusual for her. She rarely blushed, if ever. That made Kitty smile. Gambit didn't complain either. He set her on her feet and smiled.
"Y' okay, Chére?" He asked politely. She frowned and just nodded. She sent a heated glare in Kitty's direction. Rogue then looked out over the dance floor. It was a pretty sight to see. Everyone had set it up and were extremely proud of it. Logan leaned against the wall in the corner near Rogue, watching Gambit's every move. "Does Remy have de pleasure, Rogue?" He held his gloved hand out to her. She smiled slightly and set her gloved one in his.
"'Course, Cajun." She said quietly. The rest of the night was a breeze of events.
"I remember all of it, Kurt.." Kitty said, closing her eyes and putting her head in her arms. "I can't see, like, how we lost them! It isn't fair!" She shook a little and felt the elf's arm pat her back reassuringly.
"Zo do I, Keety." He said softly. She couldn't imagine the pain he must've felt. Rogue was his sister and they had that bond. They might not have been siblings by birth, but they were by heart. Mystique did a lot, though she didn't know it. Everyone knew Rogue had soft spots for a lot of people. Kitty, Logan, Kurt, and mostly Gambit. Kitty wondered about what happened. Gambit must have known.
-
Meanwhile, downstairs, Hank was still working away. By some miracle of a chance, Gambit could actually come back. He sighed. There had to be a way. He was typing away and noticing a lot that he hadn't before. He had all of the machines up and running. He had Gambit attached to every one that could help him. He found a small fault in the system and found that he still had a faint heartbeat.
"Well, I suppose everyone will be happy to hear this." He sighed and typed some new stuff on his files. His eyes scanned the files and he typed some more.
-
Gambit wasn't sure if he was dead or alive. He felt so numb. His mouth was slightly parted and he was staring into the darkness. His eyes were half- open and he felt dead. His heart had a slow and steady beat. He was sure he was alive.. He felt so empty.
"Remy feels numb.." His jaw was slack and the words were all slurred. Beast must've given him Novocain to numb the pain from the attack. He wasn't really sure what happened. His world just exploded in a mass of confusion and darkness and pain.
"Y' almost died." The voice in his head was back.
"Remy feels dead.." He tried to talk but it didn't come out right. He closed his eyes and drifted off into his dead land.
He woke up what seemed like ages later. He heard the beeping and other noises, but didn't feel anything. Could he talk normally now?
"Remy dun like dis." He muttered. He could talk normally. He didn't feel as numb. He heard voices.
"It seems as though I was mistaken. Gambit is still alive. It must be some miracle. His heartbeat is a little slow but he'll recover, I believe. Not unless he goes into another critical state." There were quiet, varied cheers and clapping.
"Is Gambit dis important?" He wondered to himself. He listened more intently. He was still unable to wake up, however.
"This is good news, Hank. I was worried for our young friend." Professor Xavier said in his emotionless voice.
"Dey be not happy when Gambit tells dem 'bout de Rogue." He said sadly.
-
"It's, like, a big relief that he's, like, alive!" Kitty said to Kurt as she fell back on her bed. "I don't, like, think that Mr. Logan was very happy."
"He needs time, Keety." Kurt said reasonably. "Rogue iz still.." He couldn't get the rest of the sentence past the lump in his throat. Kitty sat up and looked at him in concern.
"I know." She said with a slight smile. "He had, like, the biggest soft spot for her."
"I wish zis never happened.." Kurt slid to the ground. Kitty got up and kneeled down next to him. She put her hand on his shoulder.
"It'll, like, be okay, Kurt. Besides, we've all gotten just a little closer to each other. I'm, like, not saying it was good or anything, but we have to hold strong." She paused. "For Gambit. When he, like, wakes up." Kurt just nodded. "I mean, we all, like, know how much he liked her."
"Liked?" Kurt asked, raising an eyebrow. "I think he loved her."
"Maybe." Kitty continued to comfort Kurt until they got tired and went their seperate ways. It had been a long day.
-
Jean sighed. She really didn't like either Gambit or Rogue. They were too much alike and they seemed to both be from the enemy. It was all she needed that Xavier had called St. John Allerdyce and Piotr Rasputin when they had thought Gambit was dead. They were coming out from hiding from Magneto. Jean didn't trust them at all. Just like she suspected that Gambit and Rogue had both been part of that explosion that wasn't on the side of good. She hated Rogue, especially when the little goth used to talk to Scott. He was HERS, not Rogue's.
"OI!" Someone shouted from outside. "Don't make me turn you into ashes, mate!" Great. An Australian accent meant that the two were here. Jean sighed and decided to go to her room. They were most likely making a scene with Logan, who had been on watch all day. Sabertooth had been roaming around the mansion grounds before.
"Pyro! Damn you!" Logan cursed, jumping out of the way of a train of hot flames. John flicked his lighter closed and gave an amused grin.
"Calm down, mate. I didn't know it was you. Is what we heard from Xavier last night true? That our pal, Gambit, is still among us living ones?" Logan dusted himself off and gave the Aussie a disgusted look.
"Unfortunately."
"Don't tell me he went down under.." He continued on, without hearing Wolverine. "He never did like the thought that he would soon be going there- -"
"Dammit, I'll put ya there if ya don't shut up." Logan threatened.
"Oi, I thought I told ya to calm down!" Pyro fixed a sharp eye on Logan as he made his way to the stairs. "All we wanna do is go and see how Gambit's doin'."
"He meant no offense." Piotr said politely. "He had sugar this morning for breakfast."
"Sugar?" Logan raised an eyebrow.
"No, I didn't pour sugar down my throat, mate. I drank tons of soda, made at least fifteen trips to the bathroom, and drank more soda." John seemed to be in a happy mood. Especially after hearing that Gambit was still alive.
"He celebrated last night's news with coffee." Piotr mentioned in his emotionless way.
"Which meant sugar." John added proudly.
"Oh brother." Logan said with a sigh.
-
John stared at Gambit's body. The odd part about it was that he didn't look like he was alive. The door slid open and Jean walked in, not looking too happy.
"All right, Pyro, I'm here to watch you down here. I don't trust you as much as everyone else."
"Well, Sheila, all I asked for was a moment alone with my pal." Jean crossed her arms and gave him a disgusted look.
"Don't call me she..la." She stumbled over the word and John laughed at her.
"Sheila, until you can pronounce it, that's what I'm callin' ya." He grinned and looked back at the beeping machines. He didn't like them. At all.
"No, you will not call me that." She argued.
"Look, Sheila, don't make me take my lighter out, got it?" He asked in annoyance. "You obviously have a problem with me and Piotr. I'll tell you somethin' right now, we aren't traitors. I am not 'ere to listen to you open that big trap of yours." He gave her a look. "Got it?" It was obvious he didn't like her.
"No, Pyro, I don't." She said cockily. He glared at her and growled. Logan came down and heard the entire argument. He thought it was time that someone told her off.
"Listen, you.." Logan put his hand on the Australian's shoulder and shook his head.
"No fightin', you got that, kids? I ain't gonna ref. it tonight. If you got problem, take it to the Danger Room when ya get outta here." He said, glaring at Jean.
"I didn't do anything." She said stubbornly, walking out of the room.
"Miss Perfect better wake up and pull that stick from her ass." John said with a solemn look on his face. "I wouldn't have beaten 'er up too bad, mate. Why'd you stop me?"
"I agree with you, but Charles would've been pissed if I let it happen in here." Logan said with a grin. "Someone needs to use her as a punching bag, that's for damn sure."
-
Gambit almost cried when he heard John's voice. Piotr was in there also and he said a few words before anyone got the chance to come in. He missed his friends and wanted to wake up so badly. They were his strength. He finally found himself waking up. He was finally able to open his eyes. He winced against the lights in the room and he coughed a little from a dry throat. John looked back and his mouth dropped open.
"Oi, mate!" John tugged on Logan's arm. "Gambit's gone and woke up!"
"What the.." Logan looked back and nearly smiled at the Cajun. He looked exhausted and sickly but he was awake. Piotr and John were at his side in a flash and looking so relieved.
"Mate, you gave us a bloody heart attack. When the hell will you ever learn?" Gambit coughed again and motioned his head to the pitcher of water at his bed-side. Logan had gone to get Hank and the professor.
"Gambit.. be learnin' nothin'.." He said weakly and Piotr gently lifted the breathing mask and put the water to Gambit's dry lips.
"That's our Gambit." John said with a shake of his head. "Nothin' can change him."
