Author Note: I've decied not to have this just a Gambit and Rogue story. They're still going to be the main charatures but there will be other substories with other charatures. They won't really be starting up in this chapter. Oh and sorry my first two chapters have been so slow. I'm trying to speed them up and make them more fun to read.

Ding, dong! The bass heavy door chime sounded. Jubltion Lee went to answer the door grumbling about missing her Saturday cartoons. As Jublee got to the doors, she could see through the slightly fogged windows her faviorite Canadian.

"Wolvie! It's like sooooo good ta see ya! So did you have fun? And did you bring anything for me?" Jublee exclamed.

Logan chuckled at the teenager and told her that he had brought her and the other X-Men back stuff from Canada and Japan.

"Why were you in Japan?" Scott Summers asked with a edge in his voice. He didn't like it when Logan went away and lied about were he was going. He was team leader and damn it, he needed to be respected.

"It's my business Scooter so back off or else," Logan threaten.

"Whoa there you two, Ah don' want ta be hurtin' ya'll tryin' ta break up a fight. Now Wolvie can ya please tell us why ya went ta Japan?" Rogue asked standing in between the two glaring men.

"I went ta Japan 'couse I was needed by a friend. Happy?" Logan grummbled.

"Thank you Logan. Now did I hear somethin' about presents?" Rogue asked with a gleam in her eye.

Logan grabbed a bag that he had toused on the table before and handed out little trincets for everybody. Everyone, even Scott, liked what had got them. The trincets ranged form cloths to jewelry. Logan had gone all out for them. The only two who weren't there were Remy and Hank.

"So where's Gumbo and Hunk? I got stuff for them, too," Logan asked Rogue.

Rogue led him into the rec room and told him about the girl who Remy and her had saved the night before on their date.

"Poor kid, do you know anything about her?" Logan asked

"Well, from what Remy and me have heard on the news is that her name is Ruth and she's 14 years old. Hank's tryin' ta find out what her powers are. She's been asleep since we brought her to the mansion. Ah still can' believe her daddy was goin' ta do that ta her. Ah, mean send the poor thing to the FOH. It's not right," Rogue said shacking her head. "Remy and me have been taking turns sitting with her incase she weaks up."

"Of course it's not right, darlin'! Guys like this kid, Ruth's, dad is scum. It's good you an' Remy got 'er out of that mob. The kid would probly be dead or worse if ya hadn'. You and Gumbo are good people you deserve some happyness," Logan told her getting up. "Now come on darlin', go see how the kid is doin'."

When Rogue got down to the med lab she saw that Ruth was up and talking to Remy. She smiled and thought about how good Remy was with kids. Rogue always thought that he would make a great daddy. She got there attention by lightly rapping her knackles on the door. When Ruth saw her, her eyes lit up like a christmas tree. The girl was so happy to see her.

"You're Rogue, right?" Ruth asked

"Yeah, sugar Ah'm Rogue. So how are ya feelin'?"

"I just have some cuts and bruises. Abrury punched me in the eye last night," Ruth said pointing to her left eye. "That nice guy, Dr. Hank, said that my eye should be fine in a few days."

"Thats good, now who is Abrury?" Rogue asked raising her eyebrow.

"He's my mom's ex-husband. When she died I was put in his care," Ruth told her looking away. "He heard me on the phone telling my friend that I thought I was a mutant. Then he drugged me and I woke up with this guy standing over me telling Abrury that I was indeed a mutant."

Rogue looked at the girl with pitty. She remembered when her father had found out that she was a mutant. It was horrible, he had locked her up in the attic for a week before she could get out the window. By that time the whole town knew about her. Rogue was luck she had gotten out when she did. A mob was on it's way to her farm house to do god knows what to her.

"Do you know wha' de name o'the guy was?" Remy asked.

Ruth thought for a moment, " I think Abrury called him Mr. Creed. He had brown hair and eyes. I really didn't like him. You can guess why."

"Petite, you get some sleep. Me an' Rogue need to talk o'bout somethin's."

"Okay. thank you for saving me," Ruth said drifting off to sleep.
