There was a knock at the door. Rogue was lying on her bed with her
headphones on, listening to a mix of Marilyn Manson, 12 Stones, Black
Sabbath, and Metallica. "Ugh, who could that be?" Rogue said as she got up
and headed towards the door. She opened the door to Kitty and Kurt, who
both had a foreboding grin on their faces. "What do you two want?"
"Oh hello Rogue. How are you today?" Kurt asked.
"What do you two want? And why are yah so happy?" Rogue asked, placing her hands on her hips.
"Well, there's a new club opening tonight.and we wanted everyone to go." Kitty said, as she and Kurt walked into the room.
"It's a good thing that I'm not part of everybody. Cuz there ain't no way you'd get me to go there." Rogue said. "Now, if you two will excuse me, I'll be taking a shower."
"Oh c'mon Rogue, you never go out! You need to go out! Meet people! You might get lucky!" Kitty said, imploringly.
"GET LUCKY? HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THAT? HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN WHO I AM? LEAVE BEFORE I ABSORB BOTH YOUR POWERS, AND LEAVE YOU STUCK INSIDE AN ALASKAN GLACIER!" Rogue screamed at them. With this, Kurt immediately teleported out of the room, and Kitty ran through the wall.
"Vell, that was rather unsuccessful." Kurt said, as he and Kitty headed to the first floor, keeping a good distance from them and Rogue. "So, how are ve going to get her there?" Kurt asked.
"Lets try again in an hour. If not, we may have to take her by force." Kitty said. "Oh, Kurt, who are you going to ask out?" Kurt teleported to his room immediately. "Grr. it's going to be even harder to get that out of him than to get Rogue at the club." Kitty said. She walked over to the couch and started flipping through the channels. She decided to stop on MTV.
==============================o_O==============================
"Really, the nerve of them. Why would I want to go to some stupid club? I'll just end up touching somebody and then have to move to another town again. Ugh, Kitty can be so stupid." Rogue was talking to herself again as she got dressed. "Plus, with my luck, the Cajun will be there. He was kinda cute, but he's a total jerk, I just know it. Oh well, I might as well head downstairs and see what's on TV." She headed downstairs, and stopped off in the kitchen for some popcorn. Rogue walked into the living room. She noticed Kitty and decided to sit on one of the chairs instead of the couch.
"Oh, hey Rogue.Look, I'm sorry about before, its just that we that that it would be fun for us all, and you'd be able to get out. You could've brought a friend, too. Just think about it, please." Kitty said to her. Before Rogue could say anything in response, which would have put Kitty in an even worse mood, Kitty got up, tossed the remote at Rogue, and left. It missed her and made an unceremonious splash into the popcorn.
"Gawd, that kid needs to learn some mannahs. Oh well, I woulda gotten fat eating that, anyways." Rogue said as she fished the remote out of the popcorn bowl. Rogue jumped onto the couch and laid on it, facing the TV. She began flipping through the channels, and so far, nothing interesting. She came across an ad that caught her eye.
".Tonight is the opening of the brand new club: Patrick McNeil's DanceDanceRevolution, with opening acts Cup of Dirt and Blunt Force Trauma, with main acts being Ebola 5 and Rapid Deceleration. Be there or be a stupid goth!"
"Aw damn, Ebola 5 is playin', but there ain't no way in hell that I'm goin'. They may be great, but that stupid Cajun'll be there an' ruin everything." Rogue turned off the TV, seething with anger. She had the incredible urge to go to the Danger Room, or start a fight. Rogue decided to head downstairs towards the Danger Room. She headed down the stairs, where she encountered Kurt and Kitty, about to start their Danger Room session.
"Oh good, Rogue. I'm that you could join us." Professor X said as he wheeled around the corner. "This way, Rogue can be the offensive to your evasive tactics. Shall we get started?" Everyone agreed, and headed to their respective rooms.
==============================o_O==============================
"OK, here is ze plan," Kurt said as the simulators started up. "Kitty will take us through ze walls, Rogue will take out ze gun, and zen I vill take us back to here, vere they can't shoot us. Alright?" Everyone nodded in agreement, then held hands and Kitty took them through the floor and went through the floor, up the ceiling, and to one of the guns. Rogue jumped onto the machine and ripped the wiring out. The sensors of the other guns picked her up and began firing, but not before Kurt and Kitty jumped out of the wall and teleported away from there.
==============================o_O==============================
"Hey! Where the hell are we? What is going on?" Rogue screamed. She lunged towards Nightcrawler, arms outstretched towards his throat. He put on his hologram inducer, and opened up a bag filled with clothes. Kitty changed into hers willingly, and Rogue, begrudgingly, got into hers. "Why am I gettin' all dressed up in these clothes, anyway?" She asked as she pulled her pants up.
"Ve are going to a party! And you are coming!" Kurt said excitedly. "Come on! We don't want to be late!" Kurt grabbed Rogue by the arm and took her around the corner.
"I cain't believe you two! Why did y'all bring me here?" Rogue asked while they waited in line to get into the club.
"Look, it was for your own good. And just have fun. Remember: Ebola 5 is gonna be there." Kitty said.
"Hey! How'd you know I liked them? Were you spying on me?" Rogue said irritably.
"I hid in the couch." Kitty said, giggling. Finally, they got to the door. The bouncer only let in Kurt and Kitty, but not Rogue. After a rather nasty altercation between Rogue and the bouncer, she was allowed in.
Cup of Dirt had just taken the stage. They began playing, and techno lights began going off, despite the band being of punk/rock/funk origins. People weren't being let in anymore, because the club was near full capacity. Kurt and Kitty headed toward the center area, where the heavy dancing was going on. Rogue walked over towards the bar. Before she could even get there, the bartender gave her an evil look. She turned around and bumped into someone. ==============================o_O============================== Pausing for dramatic effect ^_^ ==============================o_O==============================
"What are you doing here?" Rogue asked in a surprised tone.
"Cup of Dirt does covers of songs I like." Logan said. "So I came to check them out. Bartender turn you down?" he asked. She nodded. "Tough luck kid. Well, have fun." Logan headed over to the bar, and was engulfed by the crowd. Once again, Rogue turned around, and once again, she bumped into someone.
==============================o_O============================== Pausing for dramatic effect -_- (It'd better be dramatic!) ==============================o_O==============================
"Oh, hey Jean. Is Scott here too?" Rogue asked.
"No, I decided to go clubbing with some of my friends. Having fun?" Jean asked.
"Yah, I guess. Well, I'll see y'all later." Rogue said. Jean stopped dancing.
"Are you leaving already?" She asked.
"No, of course not. Ebola 5 hasn't played yet." Rogue said. She went into the mosh pit that had recently formed. So far, Rogue was queen of the mosh pits, until her shirt ripped, exposing her skin. She ran through the crowd, holding her hand over her exposed area. She stopped to catch her breath, and she felt someone put their coat over her.
"A belle should not have to be cold. Feel better, chere?" Remy said to Rogue.
"Ugh, why are you botherin' me?" Rogue said, taking off the trenchcoat.
"Remy just bein' nice to ya. Why you being so mean to Remy? I only be nice to you." He was pleading with her.
"Look, don' bother me anymore. An don' sit next to me in Physics anymore." She said. Rogue began to walk off, and Remy reached for her. She noticed this and quickly turned away.
Remy stood there, holding his jacket, watching Rogue head down the street. He had been feeling as though something was missing from him. He finally realized what that was, and he wasn't going to let her just walk away. *Monday,* he thought. *Then, I will have to reveal my true self to her, and deal with her fear and loathing.* Remy turned around, and walked the streets looking for a place to stay.
==============================o_O==============================
Wow. That was hard to write. I got writers block every other paragraph. It was extremely annoying. I tried experimenting with Rogue's accent. Oh, I hope everyone liked the little suspense breaks. I'm on AIM quite often. Either Molimo890 or Arhmain. Thanks for reviewing this, everyone! I've finally figured out how long I should make the chapters, so I'll try to keep it at that minimum. Oh, and I'd like to give thanks to Steve Merkel of Howell, NJ for giving me the names of the bands and the club (Except Ebola 5: That's Neil Sollemberger's band)!
"Oh hello Rogue. How are you today?" Kurt asked.
