Chapter 6: Momma!
While Wanda was retrieving the adults, St. John was left with Gambit and a frisbee.
"C'mon, Mate, it can't be as bad as all of that," said St. John looking down at Gambit.
Gambit didn't flinch.
Py thought for a moment and then dropped the frisbee about a yard from the bed, "C'mon boy-go get it!"
Gambit just sighed.
"C'mon, 'at's it good dog-C'mon go get the frisbee!"
Gambit didn't move.
"John, what the hell are you doing?!" asked Wanda, who had returned by now.
Py spun around to see Wanda standing in the doorway with her arms crossed and the adults behind her.
"I think we should call the vet an' 'ave 'im fixed," said the Aussie.
SLAP!
Wanda smacked Py upside the head.
"OW!" yelped St. John, "What? It worked with my dog!"
Magneto walked over to bed, picked up Gambit's wrist and looked at his watch.
"Well?" asked Wanda.
"Gambit will be out of commission for a while," said Mags as he felt Remy's forehead, "Wanda go get a washcloth and cold water."

2 pm Xavier Institute
A black cat walked onto the premises and headed due East to the greenhouse, where Storm was tending to her plants. The cat jumped up onto the table Ororo was working at and sat down. Storm stroked the cat's head and it started to purr.
"Oh, hello Raven, come to pay up?" asked Storm.
Mystique turned back into herself.
"I'll pay when I see proof," she said still sitting on the table.
Just then the Prof. perchanced to roll by the doorway. He stopped and rolled in.
"Hello, Raven," he said.
"Charles," Mystique narrowed her eyes.
"So you heard about Rogue," he said.
"What about Rogue? What happened?!" asked Mystique.
"She had a little run in the danger room yesterday," explained the Prof. "Why don't you come down to sickbay with me and check on her."
"Uh-I don't know" Mystique began.
"Yes, Raven," said Storm putting her arm around Mystique, "maybe we'll even run into Jean and Scott and the way down."
The Prof. just sighed, "At least I know where the kids get if from now."
"Hey, what's that supposed to mean?!" said Raven.
"I wonder myself," said Storm.
Krack-Boom-thunder could be heard in the background.

Just as the Prof., Stom and Mystique were about to enter the lab they hear:
"NO-NO-STAY BACK!" screamed Rogue.
"Easy Stripes, I'm not going to hurt you!" Logan attempted to calm her down.
"DON"T COME ANY CLOSER!" warned Rogue.
"Calm down, Sis!" Kurt pleaded.
BAM!-Mystique kicked the door open.
"What is going on here?!" demanded the Prof.
"She's been like this ever since she woke up," Hank explained as he flipped through a physician's desk ref.
Rogue was backed into a corner as Kurt and Logan attempted to heard her back to the recovery room.
Logan took a step closer and Rogue sunk to the floor and stared to cry.
"What the hell are you people doing to my daughter?!" shouted Mystique.
Rogue looked up and saw Mystique. She stood up ran past Logan and leveled Mystique, "MOMMA!"
"Zat's just wrong!" said Kurt.
"Flamin' hell, Hank. How much pain killer did you give her.
THUD!
Just then Scott and Jean fell out of the supply closet and on the floor.
"I told you that door wouldn't hold our wait!" said Scott.
"I guess I do owe you $20," said Mystique looking up at Storm from underneath Rogue.
