POV Change

Chapter 9: Face to Face

          They were now sneaking out of the forest the Blackbird was cloaked with help from Storm. They made there way towards a house that was surrounded by bushes and other foliage. It was the kinda place that you would only know about if your were looking for it and even then they doubted that they would find it. They made there way over the vine covered wall that kept them out. Remy and Logan were flown over by Rogue, Scott and Michael was lifted over with Jean, and Kitty phased Evan and Storm while beast was teleported by Kurt.

          "Okay Rogue now what do we do?" asked Scott clearly uncomfortable being a follower but still relishing in the weight that was lifted off his back.

          "Well Mariah lives here ah've been keeping tabs on her ever since ah let……she left," Rogue sad her face turning sterner then usual "We walk in stat for lack o' a bettah phrase, that we come in peace" she continued

          "Then why the need of the guns if we were only going to do something that simple Rogue" Storm outwardly stated shocked by the legths Rogue went to and the things she said if they were only getting a girl.

          "If it was as easy as it sounded then do you think I would have done this and told ya so much no the danger is after we get her cuz then I will be forced to use mah powers, al of 'em" Rogues eyes downcased as the words rolled off her tougue as if after they were said they finally registered in her mind.

          "all your powers chere, ya mean dere's more dan de abosorbtion?" Remy asked gently automatically aware that it was a touchy subject.

          "Let's just get this ovah with alright" Rogue was getting annoyed she hated being asked questions that she didn't want answered.

          She started walking and they followed Remy sort of lagging behind quite mad that he made is girlfriend annoyed……..again.

[AN: wouldn't it be just evil of me to stop right here]

          They appoarched the house, once they reached the door they team was expecting some complex code they were shocked when Rogue just walkied up to the door and rang the door. The team huddled closer to Rogue just in case the floor gave away again.

          The door opened up to reveal a very big and very intimidating black male that made even Logan feel subconcouius though no outwardly sign showed it in the least.

          The man looked at Rogue with Shock and then eyed all the others with a clear face but when he spotted Michael he let a little anger show in his features, so little that if they all hadn't gotten used to those cryptic looks that Remy and Rogue used all the time they would have never spotted it.

          "Ha hvorfor De returnert Kaylie" He simply asked when done with his silent interrogation

          "Jeg kommer ta Mariah I gjennomsnitt ingen skade" Rogue said smoothly and clearly

          "Da gjorde hvorfor De fører handleren" He retorted clearly disturbed by her words.

          "Han betyr ikke at noen skade som han avsøkte av den sterkeste telepath i verdenen og dessuten om han prøvd noe som helst I knekker hans hals" She prombtly returned casually as if she did this everyday

          "De gjorde't knekker det siste tid Kay" he said

          "Mariah stanset meg og da startet dødd jakten og I slik tilgir meg om I hatt mere viktige ting bekymre meg over" she said

          "Bøtelegg men om han prøver noe som helst da I dreper ham da De"

          "Jeg venter ikke noe mindre fra De Bishop"

          "Før De går inn er som det andre i"

          "Familie"

          "Gjør I ser ut som I vil ha kryptiske svar Kay"

          "Ingen men den doesn't betyr at De vunnet't får dem"

          "fin bot men får henne kvikt og jeg forteller ikke at De sjekker at hun er sikker rett"

          "jeg beholde alltid hennes sikker Bish som det er akkurat at denne gangen jeg ikke er alene hennes familie. ....our famliy er all sammen nå"

          "Det er stor Kay men er forsiktig de alltid er etter henne så lang som hun kan. ..."

          "jeg vet at Bish I vet"

          "det saddens meg til Kay men det er hvordan det alltid er jeg er akkurat glad Deres safe"

Why have you returned kaylie

I have come to take Mariah I mean no harm

Then why did you bring the trader

He means no harm he was scanned by the strongest telepath in the world and besides if he tried anything I would snap his neck

You didn't snap it last time Kay

Mariah stopped me and then the chase started and I died so forgive me if I had more important things to worry about

Fine but if he tries anything then I will kill him then you

I expect nothing less from you Bishop

Before you enter who are the others

Family

Do I look like I want cryptic answers Kay

No but that doesn't mean you won't get them

fine fine but get her quickly and i don't have to tell you to make sure she's safe right

i'll always keep her safe Bish it's just that this time i won't be alone her family.....our famliy is all together now

that's great Kay but be careful they will always be after her as long as she can....

i know Bish I know

it saddens me to Kay but that's how it always will be i'm just glad your safe

* * * * * *

       With that he hugged Rogue and pushed her inside and stood outside watching the others. They were still dazed by the conversation even Jean couldn't pick up on anything although Michael understood everything they said completely.

          "Bishop I'm not a trader" Michael yelled at the big guy that stood in front of the door.

          "You killed Kaylie and Mariah's mother, not only that you shot her in the back your right you're not a trader it's too good a word for the likes of you" Bishop said adding a snarl at the end

Meanwhile in side the house

          Rogue walked into the house looking around with wide eyes.

          "Gawd girl ya know that ya look like a lil' chil' in a candy store" said a deep southern accent from the shadows

          Rogue jumped at the sound of the voice she turned and peered into the sdadows and stood there until a girl walked out.

          She was slightly smaller than Rogue. She had dark auburn hair with white highlights that went down to mid back. She looked like the splitting image of Rogue except instead of deep green eyes she had all black. There was no color it was just a blak void. (basically a mini-rogue w/ jet black eyes)

          "Maraih, ya'll jus' love scarring meh to pieces huh," Rogue said

          "Actually Kaylie……."

          "Would ya'll stop callin' meh that Kaylie died a long time ago that's when Rogue was born"

          "Well ya jus' gonna have ta turn back ta Kaylie ta survive Rogue"

          "And why's that"

          "Cuz Rogue has a conscience she'll be ract with guilt when blood is shed, while Kaylie it will just be another day in the life of her where the casualties can grow as much as they like as long as she ain't including in tha count" Mariah said walking passed Rogue.  

          Rogue turned ta see that Maraih was grabbing her bag and coat. Rogue didn't say anything but walked right up to Maraih and grabbed her hand and placed a gun in her hands and turned to walk out the door.

          "Having a conscience isn't a bad thing ya know it gives ya soul Maraih, Kaylie didn't have one so she stool that from those who did, sometimes I just get tired ya know, I just wanted a normal life friends, family, maybe even a boyfriend. Rogue she has that all of it and a soul a boot. I did stuff I wasn't proud I killed people just because they were there. That's not a life I wanted for me, Kurt, daddy, and you. Ya'll family, mah blood's blood ain't let anything getcha or ya soul cuz like or not ya have on." She said still not facing Maraih. She stayed that way until she felt a little hand slip into hers.

          "Thank you……..Rogue" Mariah said smiling.

Whne suddenly something through them through the wall and inta the front of the house. They landed on top of the wooden porch. The team already at there side in defense mode.

          CLAP! CLAP! CLAP! The sound came from the smoke as a dark figure approached them.

"How touching…….The two most deadlist assisans …reunited and it feels so good!" The clod precise voice said with a sorta sing-sogy voice.

          Rogue was already up while Kurt was helping Maraih get up.

          /that voice I know that voice I've heard it in mah dreams I can't believe she's here………….already\ Rogue thought

          "Volandra" She said with venom and animosity dripping from the word.
