'The angel?' Rogue said in astonishment. Everyone except the Professor looked confused at this statement. Remy wasn't as patient as anyone else.

'Angel? Chere, she look pretty 'live ta Remy.' The angel smiled and walked forward into the lobby so that everyone could get a better look. She wasn't wearing her trailing white gown anymore. And her hair wasn't loose and flowing.

She was dressed in a black tank and indigo jeans with wristbands and her hair was pulled back. She didn't see so angelic anymore, now that she was surrounded by shadows, she looked almost mortal.

'Rogue, X-Men, may I introduce Trinity Halliwell. She is a mutant as well, with the power to manipulate time and has traces of telekinetic strength. I asked her to keep an eye on Remy, until he decided to come to our side.'

'Like a spy?'

'Evan…'

'But what about when ah was shot?' Rogue said, remembering the time she had spent contemplating the words of the wise girl in the endless white space. Trinity smiled.

'I work for higher powers than that which are present here.' Logan grunted.

'And what powers would those be?' the angel paused…then smiled again.

'I believe everyone here has their secrets. And like everyone else I like to keep those secrets safe and unknown.' Evan was the one that shot a distrusting look this time.

'Well, can you tell us anything about you?' Professor X interrupted the blonde boy quickly so as to divert the question.

'Maybe Trinity should go get some rest, it has been a long day.' Trinity thanked Prof. X for his kindness and left down the hall to her room.

'May I make one fact clear about her…' He said somberly to the X-Men, 'She has had a dark past, to an extent that what you have all experienced is just the tip of the iceberg. Make no mistake, she could easily fall apart at anytime.'

Later that evening, in celebration of Rogue's newfound control, Remy snuck into the girl's corridor. He rapped on the door and checked to see no one was there. Kitty's head popped through the door.

'Like, what are you doing here Remy?' Remy jumped a bit as the voice he heard was not Rogue's. He quickly relaxed and flashed a smile.

'Is Chere here?'

'Maybe…' from behind the door came a muffled cry that sounded very much like Rogue…Kitty! Let 'im in!' Kitty was suddenly pulled back and Remy heard the lock on the door click.

'Chere…'

'Hey Sugah. Ah was just bout ta call ya.' She let Remy step in and Kitty gave a menacing look at Rogue.

'This is my room too Rogue!'

'Go bunk with Jean…'

'NO!!!'

'Kitty…news flash, that wasn' a question. Now go!' Kitty stuck out her tongue and felt Rogue aim a kick at her. She quickly ran threw the wall laughing. Rogue shook her head and turned her attention back to Remy.

'So now that ah got ya'll ta mah self, what'd ya wanna do?' She gave a seductive smile and Remy smiled back. She moved forward and pushed her hands around his neck.

'Chere…'

'Oh…Cajun, ya'r tense. Maybe we can work some a that out.' She moved closer so they were nose to nose. Remy put a hand on her lower back and one around her head. Then they started to move toward each other, their lips ready to touch for the first time…

A sudden scream interrupted their perfect moment and a loud crash broke them apart.

'What was that?'

'Dunno chere.' They both ran out into the hall and saw what was causing the chaos…a nine-foot monster machine was ripping threw the walls, it's steel claws crashing down onto the floor and shaking the very earth. Kitty was huddled in the corner, Evan standing over her ready to fight; Jean and Scott were doing everything they could to get it to follow them and Kurt was pinned to the ground, too weak to teleport.

'Here we go again.' Rogue said to herself.
