~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At the Institute, after three hours of Dexter's Laboratory and two of Pokemon, Logan was trying his best to stay awake, he turned and saw Rogue sleeping resting her head on the coach arm. Jamie was sitting infront of the TV like hypnotized. Logan, seeing the oportunity, tried to scape from the torture, he standed slowly and and began to walk tiptoing to the door

"Logan, where are you going? I thought Ororo sent you to keep an eye on the kids" Hank McCoy was walking in the room when he caught Wolverine.

"SSSHHHHH!!!!" Logan put a hand on the other's man mouth and a finger on his own's. Rogue woke up, rubbed her eyes and saw Logan and Beast.

"Are you trying to scape, Logan?" Rogue standed and walked to the Institute's teachers. She grabbed his hand and lead him to the coach. "There's still two Pokemon movies we haven't seen" Logan grumphed and sat with his arms folded. Beast chuckled.

"Rogue, professor Xavier wants to talk with you in his office" the blue man said

"Thank you very much" Rogue ran through the door as fast as she could

"Hey!! that's not fair!!" Logan protested and was about to stand when Beast put a hand on his shoulder

"You have to take care of Jamie"

"But... wait..." Mr. McCoy left the room leaving Logan with the boy and two Pokemon movies "This isn't fair..." Logan grumbled


Rogue was infront of the professor's door.

"I hope he isn't telling me I have to stay more days resting..." Rogue sighted and knocked the door.

"Come in" She heard the professor's voice. She openend the door and walked to him.

"Mr. McCoy told me you wanted to talk to me" The man infront of her nooded with a smile on his face

"Please sit down, Rogue" She sat on a chair infront of the desk "I have something really important to tell you" The girl was getting worried -please, don't tell me I have to stay more, please- the professor chuckled "Don't worry Rogue, tomorrow you'll return to the school" Rogue smiled "Well, that wasn't what I wanted to tell you..." He put his hands infront of his face " First, I need you to tell me, when you absorb other mutant's powers, what's the first thing you think about?"

"I don't know... mind is in blank"

"I see" The bald man smiled satisfied and Rogue gave him a confused look "I have great news fo you Rogue, we discovered how you would control your power" Rogue was speechless and her face turned surprised.

"Are... are you sure?" the professor nooded smiling. "But... how... I mean... I thought the absortion was a condition of my skin..."

"Actually, your power is some kind of psyquic hability you have" Rogue stared at him a little confused

"Are you saying that I have similar powers as yours and Jean's?"

"In some way... but the diference is that you need some kind of switch to turn it on"

"And that's my skin..."

"You're right. It seems, when you touch somebody your power activates as an unconscious reaction, your mind is in blank because it's getting fill with memories and assimilating the other's habilities"

"Wow! it seems really simple. If I get concious of my power I could control it" Rogue smiled

"Yes, but it isn't as simple as that" Rogue's face turned serious "this unconcious reaction must be some kind of trauma you have. It's a kind of defence your body have, like if unconsciously, you don't want to be touched"

"It could be. I don't remember too much of my life before living with Irene"

"I see..." The professor thought for a second "I have to be sincere with you, this won't be easy, Rogue, you need to overcome that trauma, and maybe would be painful..."

"If there's not other way..." Rogue sighted "I'll do anything you ask me..."

"I thought you were going to say that" The man gave her a proud smile "Tomorrow we can start with your training sessions"

"It's a deal prof, I'll work hard!" Rogue standed and walked to the door, then turned "Prof, could it be a secret between us?" The man nooded "Thank you prof" she said with a confident smile and then left the room.


In the TV room, Logan was almost asleep when a slam on the front door woke him up. Then he heard some voices aproaching

"That, like, can't be" He heard Kitty's angry complaining

"I'm so sorry, but someone had to protect you from that brat" Evan said sarcastically

"He's like, not a brat, he's my BOYFRIEND!!!" Logan turned and saw Evan, Kitty and Kurt walking in the room.

"What's going on here?!" Logan asked walking between the two arguing kids

"Evan, like, didn't let me accept Lance's ride"

"I'm not letting you get in that imitation of jeep with the Brotherhood inside"

"It's, like, better than return walking all the way home"

"Wait a minute, you walked?" The three boys nooded "Wasn't Scott returning you to the mansion?"

"Yeah, but he got a detention for fighting vith Pietro" Logan shoocked his head. After that, Evan and Kitty continue with their discussion.

"They've been like that all the vay home..." Kurt put his hands on his ears "Logan, vhere's my sista?"

"Must be in the prof's office..." Logan grumphed

"Vhat's vrong?"

"That sister of yours made me stay here watching that torturing cartoons for almost six hours!!" Kurt chuckled "Sometimes I think that girl heredit the evil genes of your mother"

"I heard you Logan" Rogue entered the room with a video tape on her hand "Ororo told me to give Jamie this movie" the girl waved the tape in the air "It's title is 'Monsters INC'" Logan stared at her horrified "I wasn't giving him it, but my 'evil genes' are taking me over" an evil grin appeared on her face. Kurt began to laugh and put a hand on his mouth to don't let the older man see him.

"Stripes, it was a joke... you wouldn't do that, right?"

"Well..." Rogue tought about it for a second "Jamie? Would you like to watch other movie?"

"YYEEESSSS!!!!" The boy standed up and ran to Rogue. She gave him the tape and he quickly put it in the videoplayer. Evan and Kitty stopped arguing and stared at the scene shoocked. Rogue grabbed Kurt's hand and he undestood what she wanted, so he teleported before anything happens. Evan took Kitty's hand and ran outside the room. In a second, Wolverine was left with Jamie and the 'Monsters INC' movie. -When I get them....-
