CHANGES 4
Authors: Notes: Glad to be back. I've had so many flames, that I can actually feel the burns. Anyway for those who don't understand why Jubilee's changed so much, well the answers going to be revealed in this chapter. You'll fully understand why she did what she did. Also we'll be hearing from our favorite Cajun, and we'll find out what he's been up to lately. I will NOT be doing Remy's accent either. It's too complicated, and I don't have any comics with me at this moment. Therefore I don't know how his Cajun accent sounds like, without the comic books. So please don't flame me about that. I'm not at home while I write this, so I don't have access to my comic collection. So, no Remy will talk like the English folks, and not the Cajun folks. All right.
As for romantic links for Storm, well right now it's a toss up between Scott and Gambit. However, we have to remember that Scott is engaged to Emma. Speaking of which Emma will be making her debut in this chapter as well, and I'll promise you Storm will definitely have to watch her back. Not only from Emma, but her new rival Jean Gray. Stay tuned, because this is going to be a slobber knocker.
Disclaimer: Nothing here belongs to me. Well the story is mine. The creativity is mine. The flames belong to the flamers. The angst is mine. The rage is mine. Well shoot might as well say everything here is mine, with the exception of these freaking characters. So there.
To be only human
Remy LeBeau hadn't been to the mansion in almost twenty years, and he didn't have any intention of ever returning there. He wanted to live out the rest of his life away from all the killing, fighting, and death. He wanted to forget about the life that he used to live while he was an X-Men, and live a somewhat normal life. He used to dream of getting married, having kids, and living life to the fullest with the woman that he loved. However, in one quick instant that dream was suddenly taken away from him. His life, his love, was now a distant memory. Rogue was dead and gone, and most importantly he blamed himself. He still blamed himself to this very day. Remy was now forty-five years old, and there still hasn't been a single woman that could ever fill Rogue's shoes. As far as he could tell, there never would be either.
He had been living in Louisiana, ever since Rogue's death. He vowed to himself that he would stay there until his dying day. At least that's what the plan was. However, he never imagined that he would be standing outside the very mansion that he had deserted so long ago. Yet, here he was. He stared at the mansion grounds, and he felt a twinge of guilt suddenly overcome him. He kept asking himself the same questions over and, the results were always the same. He wondered if he made a mistake by leaving because he felt that if he would have stayed, then Hank and Bobby would still be alive. He wondered if his staying would've made a difference in the outcome in his teammates fates.
He had been aware of Hanks passing, but was shocked to find that Bobby soon suffered the same outcome. It seemed like death was as thick as the smog in Louisiana, on a foggy morning. It was almost too unbearable for Remy, but he wanted to pay his last respects. He hadn't attended any funerals except Rogue's, and he wasn't sure if the team would welcome him back with open arms.
The funeral was slated to start in another five hours, and he wasn't prepared to go in and face the music just yet. So he turned around, and walked back to his motorcycle. He jumped on the seat, and cranked on the ignition. He sat on his bike, and reached into his coat pocket. He pulled out a pack of cigarettes, and a wallet sized picture of Rogue. He ran a shaky finger over the picture, and soon felt tears streaming along his face.
"I know that I said that I would never come back here, and I know that I'm breaking that promise that I made to you all those years ago. I know that I made a lot of promises, but I have to do this. I can't pretend that everything's all right, when it's not. Both Hank and Bobby have joined you, as well as Charles Xavier. I don't think that I can stand by, and let those monsters kill another one of my friends. I won't let them continue to take away my family. I'm sorry if I broke my promise to you, but the X-Men are the only family that I have left in this world. I'm sure that even you can understand that.
Remy put the picture back in his pocket, and then he placed the cigarette in his mouth. He lit the cigarette, and put the lighter back in his pocket. He kicked the kickstand, and prepared to drive away. He took one last look at the mansion, and noticed that there was a lone figure standing outside looking at him. At once he noticed that it was Logan, and he waved to his old partner. He should of known that evidently Logan was going to smell him, as soon as he drove up towards the front gate. From where he stood, Logan appeared to be smaller somehow.
Remy waved one last time, vowing to himself that he was going to return in time for the funeral. However, he needed a little time to collect himself, and he set off to do just that. Coming back hadn't been as easy as he thought, and all of his old feelings came back to him with full force. The X-Men were his family, and nobody else was going to get murdered as long as he lived.
Emma Frost had never been so tired in all of her life. She came to the mansion last night, when her fiancé called her. He had wanted her to come, and do a mind sweep of the young woman named Jubilee. Apparently she was the one responsible for the deaths of both Hank, and Bobby. Although she refused to think that Jubilee was the source of all the recent chaos, surrounding the mansion.
It seemed like only days ago when Generation X disbanded, and she was certain that Jubilee would've made something out of her life. Jubilee had been her favorite student, and she even thought that she would rejoin the X- Men after the school ended. However, the last thing that she heard about Jubilee was the fact that she moved to L.A. with Angelo. So imagine her surprise when she found out that Jubilee had two daughters, and was married. The biggest shocker was when Emma found out that Jubilee murdered her own husband in cold blood, right in front of her own children. Jubilee grew up to be a monster, and Emma was now determined to find out the reason why.
Emma spent the entire night, sitting next to Jubilee. Of course Jubilee was chained to her bed, and had on an inhibitor collar to prevent the shedding of any unnecessary bloodshed. Emma had entered her mind, hoping to find the reason why Jubilee did what she did. She was shocked about the true nature of her crimes, and she dug deeper into the girl's mind in hopes of finding the truth. So she entered into her mind once again, back to the time when Bastion kidnapped her. She was surprised to find out that Jubilee's psyche had been altered with, and she found out that it wasn't Jubilee's choice to marry Bastion. Rather Bastioned programmed her mind, and made it so that she was to fall head over heels in love him. It was a program that was successful in every right.
Somehow, Bastion programmed the young girls mind, in order that she carried out certain wishes for him. Emma realized that one of his wishes, was for her to annihilate all of the X-Men. What troubled Emma was the realization that Jubilee knew that Bastion deceived her, because why else would Jubilee kill the man. Emma reasoned that there had to be a way to reverse the programming done by Bastion. The only question was how were they going to accomplish that feat, when they didn't even know where to begin.
Jubilee had done some unthinkable acts, and now they knew the reason why. Emma had to go tell Scott about her findings, and then she had to figure out a way to reverse the program without harming Jubilee.
She exited the girls mind, and she stood up over her. Emma ran her fingers through the girl's hair, and noticed that she was sweating heavily. Emma reached into her purse and took out a small handkerchief. It almost seemed like Jubilee was fighting to get back control over her own mind. This was something Emma understood all too well. It is never easy to have your mind invaded, and have someone else to take control over your entire life.
She placed the soiled handkerchief in a small wastebasket, and she took one last look at the girl. She turned around and walked out of the room. She wanted to find her fiancé, and tell him of the latest findings. Plus she wanted to play catch up, because she hadn't seen her man in a long time. Earlier she noticed with pleasure that Scott had been working out, and she was anxious to see just how strong he became. It was time to get reacquainted again with her boyfriend, and there was nothing that was about to stop her now.
Okay. I know that there's going to be a lot of people mad at me, because this was too short. Sorry about that. Anyway let me know how you liked the story. Was the plot about Jubilee being brainwashed by Bastion believable? I wanted to make Jubilee different, and I received a lot of reviews asking why. A lot of people wanted to know what could possibly change Jubilee, so much that she would kill her friends. Well she was brainwashed by her husband Bastion, who in turn brainwashed her in order for her to marry him in the first place. Believable? I don't know write back and let me know if that was just too far fetched, or if it was right in the money. Anyway in the next chapter we will take a journey to the past. There we will find out exactly what Bastion did to Jubilee, and we'll take a glimpse in the births of both of her daughters. If you were confused at any point in this story, the next chapter will clear up any misunderstandings that you may have had. Later.
