Disclaimer: Don't look at me. I don't own them.
A/N: Here I go again. I appreciated your reviews a lot. Thanks! I would have had this uploaded a lot sooner but the site was telling me this was an empty document. Oh well. Also If this chapter isn't as good as the other ones, The next one will be better. I sorta fell apart.
Scott sat in the hall of the hospital with Kitty next to him. He was staring blankly at the floor. Kitty looked over and knew he was in a mixture of emotions. A nurse came out and mumbled something to Kitty.
"Hey Scott, you're allowed to go in." She said to him. She hated seeing him like this.
"Ok, thanks Kitty." He replied. He got up and went into the room. He took a seat next to the hospital bed and stared at the patient.
"Oh god." He said. "Don't leave me Rogue, please." He put his hand on her (gloved) hand and leaned down. He gently kissed it and he had too much. He completely collapsed on the girl and sobbed his heart out. Kitty couldn't help but cry also. Professor Xavier wheeled down the hall to Kitty.
"Where's Scott?" He asked Kitty. She pointed through the glass into Rogue's room. He nodded asked Kitty to open the door. Kitty opened it and the professor went inside. Seeing his first recruit like this made him heartbroken.
'The poor kid.' He thought.
"Scott." The professor said quietly. Scott sprang up and was obviously embarrassed. "I need to scan Rogue's mind to find out who her attacker was." He nodded in agreement and left. Scott had gotten a phone call from his cellphone while looking for Rogue with Kitty. It turned out that Kurt had convinced the professor to do another brain scan and he found her. She had been sexually violated (A/N: rape if any of you didn't know) and severely beaten. The professor told Scott that the attacker first used a condom and then went bare, causing Rogue's power to activate. Rogue had managed to kill the man, which was very traumatizing for her since she would have his sick memories in her mind for a long time. All of this made Scott sick to his stomach.
'How could anyone do such an evil thing to a girl?' he asked himself. He decided the question was unanswerable. There were a lot of sickos in the world.
The police found the dead body of the man the next morning. Strangely enough, he had no wallet and no ID. The professor found out who the man was and told Scott. His name was Ralph Danvers, ex-husband of Carol Danvers. Carol was a mutant with amazing powers and she was a resident of a close NY town. The professor had no intention of speaking with her unless she had something to do with the violation.
Rogue had to stay overnight at the hospital for about a week until she could come back to the institute where she still needed to stay in bed. A week had passed and Rogue was in her bed most of the time and according to Jean she was "hogging all the attention." Jean was inconsiderably jealous all of the time that caused Scott to have a serious talk with her. The talk ended up with Jean getting slapped across the face and Scott getting ultra pissed. Jean was being cruel. Although she was being kinder to Rogue, she was being evil to Scott, which lead to some of the X-teens to dislike the red head. She began to kiss Duncan in front of Scott, and go on dates while Scott spent a lot more time with Rogue.
Everything seemed to be going well until one day. Scott was in the room talking to Rogue.
"The professor said you should better in no time." Scott told her.
"I know, I just wish these damn memories would go away." She explained. Scott had noticed she was waking up from nightmares lately.
"Yea, it must me tough." Scott replied.
"You have no idea." She responded. Now the outburst. "I JUST WITH THE BLONDE BITCH WOULD STOP!" Scott almost fell out of the bed. Rogue was breathing deeply and was swearing like crazy.
'PROFESSOR!' he thought. Rogue jumped out of her bed and smacked Scott across the face. His glasses fell off and blew a hole in the wall. He immediately closed his eyes and he heard glass break. Rogue had jumped out of the window.
"Scott!?" Kitty cried as she entered the room with the professor. She got his glasses and put them on his face. He ran to the window expecting to see Rogue with her legs broken, or some other bone for that matter, but he didn't. Amazingly she had survived and was off running somewhere. Evan came barreling down with Ororo and Kurt close behind.
"Yo man! What gives?" he asked.
"Ah. It appears Ralph's memories have taken over her mind. Much like when she touched Cody when her power first activated. It appears she's going after Carol Danvers." The professor explained.
"Are we going after her?" Kitty asked.
"Yes." The professor responded.
"In uniform?"
"Yes." Kitty gave a sigh and vanished through the floor. Scott, Evan, and Kurt went to go suit up also.
Moments later, the X-men were outside Carol's house. It was a nice small house with a nice garden outside. Actually the garden was messed up now and about half the windows were broken. You could here an occasional swear word and a lot of screaming.
"Kitty, go inside and see what's happening." Scott ordered. Kitty sighed and got up. She was afraid something might hit her. Kitty walked up to the house and phased through the wall. She phased through a thrown lamp and saw that Rogue and a blonde lady were fighting. Obviously the blonde was Carol.
"Rogue! This isn't you!" Kitty cried. Rogue didn't listen. Kurt bamfed in and saw what was going on.
"What are you doing here?" Kitty asked.
"Scott sent me. You were taking to long." Kurt informed her. She was only in there for a minute. Rogue took off her glove and slapped her hand against Carol's face. There was a lot of grunting and screaming and Carol fell to the floor.
"Oh my god." Kitty uttered.
Scott was waiting impatiently outside.
"Come on. What's taking so long." He asked himself. All of the sudden there was a loud boom sound. An object, unable to make out, erupted through Carol's roof. The object landed about a few yard in front of the team. It was Carol. She was alive but unconscious. Probably because of Rogue. Moments later, Kitty phased out with Rogue who looked completely dazed. Kurt bamfed in next to Scott. Scott ran up to Rogue.
"Rogue? Can you hear me?" Scott called. He held her like it was his most prized possession.
"Scott? What happened?" She asked. Currently she had the husband and the ex-wife in her mind. Rogue also had powers. More than she could control.
"Scott, I think Rogue needs some rest. She might cause destruction with her newly acquainted powers." The professor told him. Scott released her and put her in the car so she could rest. She fell asleep almost immediately and they drove home.
~~~~~~~~**
Lance was the first to notice it, the change in Rogue. He'd noticed how Jean and Scott weren't "as close" as they were before. Jean hung around Duncan a lot more now. Lance despised Duncan with all his girlfriends. He made fun of all his friends and he made fun of Lance. Lance didn't much care that he made fun of his friends but when he made of Lance, he got all worked up.
Lance walked down past the lockers and saw the X-geeks, as he would call them, further down the hall. He was about to say a stupid remark when he saw Rogue. She had her head down and looked really messed up. Kitty was walking with her and Lance stopped her.
"Hey Kit, what happened with Rogue?" He asked her. Kitty looked as if she was going to cry.
"She.She was raped." Kitty said solemnly. Lance couldn't think of something to say. He felt sick and angry.
"Oh.. Tell her I'm sorry for what happened." He replied. This surprised Kitty because she thought they hated one another.
"Ok I will." Kitty replied. "And Lance?"
"Yea?"
"That was very nice of you." Lance smiled at Kitty's reply and walked off to class. While Lance was walking he heard Tabitha yell a stupid remark to the X-men. Lance growled and went over to her. He snatched her up and pinned her up the locker.
"What the HELL are you doing!?" He shouted. He had formed a crowd of kids.
"Nothing asshole, now put me down." She ordered. He ignored.
"No. Not until you apologize to them." He snarled. Scott looked surprised and Rogue looked up.
"Fine! I'm sorry." She said. She obviously didn't mean it but they were satisfied at Lance's action. Kitty mouthed 'thank you' and the group moved on. The rest of 'audience' walked away also.
"What the hell is your problem?" Tabitha asked pissed.
"Nothing." Lance said. He put the girl down and walked away. He felt like crying.
After school wasn't all that easy either. Lance walked gloomily to his Jeep and got in. He usually waited but this time he left. He didn't go straight home. This time he took a detour, to the X-mansion. He got out of the car and knocked at the door. Logan appeared at the door.
"What do you want?" He asked.
"Um... nevermind." Lance said. He walked away from the door and got back in his car. He sat there and put his head on the steering wheel. 'Shit' he thought. He actually didn't know why he was there in the first place. He suddenly figured out why he came. He drove the car to the school and walked back to the X-mansion. He rapped at the door again hoping it wasn't Logan. Luckily, it wasn't. Ororo answered the door.
"Why hello Lance." Ororo greeted. "Can I help you?" 'At least she's nice to me' Lance thought.
"Um. I was thinking that. oh what the heck. Can I live here?" He asked nervously. He thought she was going to slam the door in his face like he was a bug in her bathtub.
"I'll find out. You stay here." She ordered. It took about 5 minutes and the professor came to the door.
"You want to live here?" The old man asked. Lance looked at the professor's head. The word 'shiny' went through his mind.
"Yes. If it's ok." Lance replied. The professor knew why Lance wanted to stay here. It was because of Kitty and Rogue. Mainly he wanted to see if Rogue was ok.
(A/N: I totally forgot they had a gate in front of the institute! My apologies, just pretend there never were one. Sorry)
"It's fine by me. Take the guestroom upstairs again." The professor explained. Lance went up to his room, the X-men still unaware of his presence. He looked at the phone and picked it up. He dialed Pietro's new cellphone number.
"Yea?" Pietro answered.
"It's Lance. The keys are in the glove compartment." Lance told the boy.
"Ok, where are you?" Pietro asked. Lance hesitated for a moment. Pietro was saying hello every second of his hesitation.
"The X-mansion." Lance finally blurted. Before the white-haired boy could respond, Lance hung up. He stuffed his face in his pillow and fell asleep.
~~~~~~~~**
"He's at the X-geeks place!?" Todd yelled out in utter shock.
"He's changing." Pietro told him.
"He's changing my butt! He's already changed." Tabitha informed them. "For instance, today I called them a name and he completely exploded." Eileen came walking and Pietro hid his cellphone. She glared at him.
"No need to worry. I've got them under control." She told them. "The headaches were making me all snooty."
"And I thought it was PMS." Tabitha remarked. Eileen through a penny at her. Tabitha let out a scream of pain and created a bomb. She threw it in Eileen's backpack causing it to explode. Eileen gave up and didn't bother to wrestle with the blonde bombshell. She didn't have anything important in the backpack anyway.
Eileen, as well as John, had gotten very familiar with the X-geeks. She grew to despise them and make fun of them just like the rest of them, except Lance. John came walking to the Jeep.
"Yo! Where's Lance?" He asked.
"The X-geeks place." Tabitha told him. John dropped his book. He didn't bother to ask why. He got into the Jeep and waited for Pietro to drive off.
When they got home, they informed Mystique of the news and she swore off the wall.
"Well then, I guess we have to go retrieve them." Mystique said. She was smiling at her new plan.
A/N: Oh lordy, what a bad cliffhanger. I couldn't think of any more cliffhanger lines.
A/N2: I just realized I forgot to tell you what the new people's powers are! Anyway John can control fire. Eileen can project an energy field (I have no idea why I have been calling it a force field. It really isn't one) that disrupts electricity, machines, and telepathy. This field also allows her to fly when fully charged.
