"A big voice?" It was Logan, the real one. The one with skin that had been touched.
Of course he was a big voice. He was the loudest of them all sometimes. Couldn't he hear them?
She nodded jerkily, fighting the urge to make a remark about things that were big besides his voice. Again, that was Carol, not Marie. Marie would never say things like that, and no one knew what to expect of Rogue.
Maybe that's why it was so hard now. Rogue was The Untouchable. When you touched her, you became part of her. No one wanted to be part of her.
So really, what Carol wanted to do was what Rogue wanted to do. Right?
But was what Rogue wanted to do what Marie wanted to do?
And along came another headache.
Damn. Only made 'em louder.
This voice speaking, rationalizing everything... was it her own?
Yes, it was her - the voice that had been created by the X-gene. The only constant in the crowded chaos and it was fading into what the others saw; a small, scared child who was quickly going insane.
No one knew she knew it too.
