Rogue sighed as she watched the bar owner lock up, turning left she headed towards her motel.
Suddenly she was grabbed from behind, Rogue tried to break free but it was like trying to kick against a mountain. Some thing
cold and metallic was clipped around her neck as the girl was forcefully dragged towards a waiting car. A hand over her mouth
stopped her from crying out as she was bundled into the back seat.
The car revved up speeding away as a black van and two motorcycles pulled up. Rogue saw them through the back window and
started yelling,her assailant shoved her down keeping a hand over her mouth. Rogue glared at him fiercely and switched to
mentally calling for help,
Jean! Jean help! she sent the girl a picture of the car before they went out of range.

"No sign, your sure it's here?" Cyclops asked Gambit, Remy nodded silently
"her scents fresh, not even five minuets" said Wolverine "there's allot of fear and anger"
Jean gasped clutching her head,
"Rogue she's in trouble" she said, looking around she pointed "that way, black Mercedes, moving fast"
Gambit and Wolverine ran back to their bikes, shooting off, the others climbed into the van and followed.
They found them ten minuets down the road,
"We lost them" growled Wolverine "let's get back to the bar, may be we can find some thing"

Remy stared at the door, the ace of spades was pinned to its old peeling paint, taking it down Gambit slowly flipped it over,

If you would like to see your sweetheart again I suggest you come to the canyon Thursday noon.

It wasn't signed,
"Canyon? Which Canyon?" asked Cyclops
"the Grand Canyon?" suggested NightCrawler
"non, it's not de Grand Canyon" said Gambit dully
"do you know where it is?" asked ShadowCat
"oui, not far from here, maybe two days"
"which would take us to Thursday" said Jean
"exactement" Gambit slowly charged the card, "Gambit'll show you de way"
"how would you know?" asked Cyclops suspiciously
"cause Gambit knows who got her" he said letting the card fall to the ground, he walked back to his bike and climbed on, the
others followed him. As they drove away the card exploded.

Rogue paced her cell angrily, turning away from the bared window she walked to the door and kicked it in frustration. Her
collar was beeping annoyingly, adding to her tension, she traced it with her fingers and felt a shiver of revulsion run down
her spin. It, what ever it was, deactivated her mutant powers leaving her feeling vulnerable and exposed,
neva thought there'd be a day when Ah missed my powers she thought, Rogue sighed and turned back to the window, come on
guys Ah wanna go home there was no doubt in her mind that her friends would find her, it was just a matter of time.
and in the mean time, waitin's borin' she started humming absentmindedly and laughed when she realised what the song was,
where did that come from? she shrugged aarrr what the hell?

"Where have all good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where's the street-wise Hercules
To fight the risin' odds?

Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night Ah toss and turn and dream of what Ah need
Ah need a hero
Ah'm holdin' out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
Ah need a hero
Ah'm holdin' out for a hero 'til the mornin' light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life"

she sung loudly, her voice echoing back from the cold walls

"Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There's someone reachin' back for me

Racing on the thunder and risin' with the heat
It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet

Ah need a hero
Ah'm holdin' out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
Ah need a hero
Ah'm holdin' out for a hero 'til the mornin' light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life

Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightnin' splits the sea
Ah would swear that there's someone somewhere
Watchin' me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
Ah can feel his approach
Like a fire in my blood

Ah need a hero
Ah'm holdin' out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
Ah need a hero
Ah'm holdin' out for a hero 'til the mornin' light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life"

Rogue ginned happily until the lock turned in the door, spinning round to face her jailer she glared,
"bravo, you have a lovely voice" he said, it was the same creepy man as before, the boss of the two goons who had grabbed her,
Rogue watched him wearily, there was some thing vaguely familiar about him but she hadn't got a good enough look yet to say
who he was "and such an amusing choice of song, quite appropriate" Rogue sneered at him
"what do ya want?"
"why you my dear, your to come with me and met you charming friends" he stepped back and the two goons came in carrying her by
her arms and legs, Rogue struggling the entire way.

A/N I couldn't find the song that I wanted, so sue me *shrugs* on second thoughts don't, I can't afford a lawyer.
Any whoo, I love this song and I wanted a bit of humour (just a tiny wee bit) to lighten it up a little cause I have the feeling
it's gonna get a bit darker before the end.
sees ya'll
