Disclaimer: Same as before. Also if anyone wants to archive my story, it's fine by me. But please do ask me for permission. And I would like to know where my story is going to be. Author's Blab: Thanks for all the reviews! I would like to clear things up about Ororo's character due to some questions about her in the story. I never really read any of the comics from X-Men, I sometimes read them, but I usually don't have the availability to read them. My version of 'Ro (and also other characters of X-Men) comes from my perceptions about 'Ro's personality through cartoons or other fan fics I have read before. These aren't great "resources" but it's all I got. But hopefully the 'Ro in this story is not too different, but then again diversity creates individuality. Without further ado, continue on with "Swept Away"!





"Island"



*LOGAN!??!*

*Where could he be!?*

*He did such a foolish thing!!!*

*I want to kill him for doing this to me!*

*I can't believe I just jumped off the ship for him!*

Ororo's thoughts wildly swirled around in her mind.

The freezing waters took her breath away. While she's trying to ignore the stinging pain of the pelting rain and crashing waves against her, Ororo squinted through the waters to search for Logan.

*This is useless! I am going to be swept by the waves further away if I stay in the waters too long.*

Focusing on her powers, Ororo managed to use the energy from the typhoon to ride on the raging winds to lift herself out of the sea. Now, she could see over the seas to find Logan more rapidly. However, the downpour refuses to let up.

*Oh Goddess, I am so tired........*

Ororo's own energy is starting to wane from her. She could not keep this up if she's going to look for Logan any longer.

She barely finished her thought, when she sighted a silver light glinting off a sharp blade.

*Oh Goddess!*

Logan's adamantium claws were drawn out. Both pair of hands was tearing through the air to grab any possible object, unfortunately, the rain was the only cruel mockery of Logan's impediment.

As quickly as her diminishing energy allowed her to drift over to Logan's flailing arms, Ororo gasp at what she saw.

Logan's face was pale and his eyes....for the first time since Ororo met him, Logan's dark eyes showed signs of intense fear.

When he saw Ororo's figure above him, relief overwhelmed Logan. He couldn't continue to struggle in the waters. His strength had been completely worn out.

*'Ro, you're here....*

Logan unexpectedly sank beneath the sea.

*Please! Logan don't! Just hold on!* Ororo tried to call out, but it's futile. Instead, Ororo dove into the rumbling waters to rescue Logan from his soon to be watery grave.



Through out the night the typhoon persisted relentlessly..........there's completely no sign of the two X-Men teammates ever been in the sea. Thundering waves drifted the two castaways further and further away from the Cortana's original course.

Ororo woke up to find herself alone on a sandy beach filled with thick vegetation with the midday sun reflecting off of the turquoise blue waters. The warm surf casually graze over her long legs.

*An island...I've been swept onto an island.*

Ororo's exhausted mind couldn't carry on any more thoughts, she swiftly slipped into a deep sleep.
