Royal Flush Part Three: Broken Hearts and Regained Trusts
Rogue stared out the window of the Blackbird. The other X-men watched her, guilty expressions on their faces. A cough attracted her attention. Rogue turned her head. Scott stood up.
" Ummm. Rogue. We wanted to apologize."
" We were such jerks!" Kitty added.
" We just judged Remy before we even knew him." Jean said.
" We are really sorry." Everyone said to together. Rogue stared at them blankly for a moment and then smiled.
" Thanks." The plane landed Logan walked out of the pilot's compartment.
" We're here." He said as he walked off the plane. Rogue dashed out.
" So where are we?"
" Alberta." Logan said in a spacey voice. Rogue shrugged and pressed on.
" Ah'm goin' to check in the city."
" We'll check other areas." Scott said. " Now let's go get our friend back."

Gambit sat on a bench in a park. He held the king of hearts card. His heart sank. Why did he keep thinking of Rogue? Gambit scowled and shoved the card into his pocket. He then walked deep into a grove of trees.
Rogue walked through a grove of trees.
" Musta' landed in a park." She mumbled as she pulled a twig out of her hair. She heard a twig snap. She looked around to see who made the noise. All of a sudden, two huge men walked in front of her.
" What have we got `ere? A pretty little flower." Said the first one.
" A flower shouldn't be out here in the forest. Let's get her to someplace where it's sunny." The other one replied.
" Ah'll be goin' nowhere with you." Rogue snapped. Suddenly, two flashes sailed through the air and knocked the men far into the woods. Rogue stood in shock and then a grin spread across her face.
" Ya can come out, Remy." She said coolly. A boy sat on a branch above her.
" Ah don't know any Remy. Ah be Gambit." Rogue looked up at him.
What are ya playin' at? You lose your memory or somethin'?" Gambit jumped down from the tree.
" For you, Cher. I am Remy. To da oders. I be Gambit." He leaned down and kissed her gloved her hand. Rogue blushed a deep crimson. Then she pushed his face away.
" Okay, Mr.Charm ma pants off. Ah'm here because Ah want to apologize. Everybody does." The grin on Gambit's face vanished.
" Really?" He said, sounding surprised.
" Yeah. Everybody feels like jerks because of the way they treated ya. Please will ya give them another chance?" Rogue replied.
" For you, Cher. Remy would do anything." Rogue grinned.
" Then follow me." She said as she motioned with her hand. Suddenly, something came flying out of the trees and knocked Rogue unconscious.
" Rogue!" Gambit shouted. He then heard a high pitched laugh.
" Sinister." Gambit growled as his world faded away.
