CHAPTER 3
Just Dropping In
Chloe let out a scream as she hit the blue demon in the face and ran in a random direction. "Kurt you like so totally should have worn your holowatch." Kitty told him as she helped him to his feet. "Vanna try again?" Kurt asked his teammate. "Sure, if we can catch up to her I mean." Kitty said. "No sweat Katchen." Kurt grabbed her hand and ported a few feet in front of where Chloe was headed. "Ahhh." Chloe screamed in shock and ran again. She looked back at the creature that was following her while running and did not look where she was going.
She was about to run into an old Oak tree on the property when she felt someone grab her shoulder and she was phased through the plant. "Whoa! Its like a hologram." Chloe said to herself aloud. "Nine. It's Keety." Kurt said as he caught up to the two girls. "It's okay, he's one of us. Just. a little fuzzier." Kitty reassured the girl who was about to run again. "See." Kurt said as he did something with his watch and transformed into a normal looking teenage boy. "Oh.Sorry." Was all that came out of Chloe's mouth after seeing the mistake she'd made. "It's nice to meet you both. I think. Who are you anyways?" Chloe asked. "I'd ask you the same question. We're Mutants like you. And we only want to help you get control over your powers." Kitty explained. "My.?" Chloe was trailed off by a mocking voice to her left.
"Oh look. Blue boy's made a friend." Peitro Maximoff stood with the rest of the brotherhood on the inside of the gates to the Mansion. He laughed with the mocking words he said. "Ya know it's not as hard to get into this place when the alarm system's shut down. Thanks a lot X-freaks." Lance joined his teammate as Todd and Fred snickered behind them. "Who the hell are yo." Chloe was cut off by a puff of sulfur in her face, which she accidentally swallowed. By the time the smoky substance had cleared she was gasping for air. She looked around and realized that she was no longer on the ground by the gates but up on the roof with the blue boy and the valley girl.
"I'll go get Scott and the others. You stay here vit. Vhat vas your name again frouline?" "Uh.Chloe." Kurt ported off and left the two girls up on the roof. Chloe felt like she was going to be sick and probably looked it too because the valley girl started talking to her about it. "Don't worry. It's like totally usual to get airsickness the first time he teleports with you. I'm Kitty Pryde by the way. This is a school for mutants like you and me incase you haven't already like figured that out. The professor told us you'd be coming back with Logan. Although we didn't think you'd be bringing Gambit along with you."
"Yes. That was just icing on the cake for us." Chloe and Kitty turned around to see a blue woman with red hair. "Mystique." Chloe heard the valley girl say through gritted teeth. "I'd hate to ruin this little get together of yours but.oh wait. No I wouldn't. Sabertooth." The red headed woman ordered. A furious looking beast with long blond hair came into site and charged at the two girls. "Kitty look out!" Chloe charged at kitty first, thinking that they would just fall down out of the way. She did not however expect for her and her new friend to fall through the roof."

"Look monami. I aint done nuttin wrong an' needer as' m' sis.da fille. So if ya don' mind Gambit gotta go fin' her and get da hell outta here." Gambit moved to stand up from the couch in the living room but Logan stood and gave him a glare until the Cajun sat down again.
Remy was sitting in the living room of the huge mansion and was being questioned and observed by Storm, Wolverine, Beast, Cyclops, Jean, Rouge, Spike, and of course Professor Charles Xavier. "Ah still don't trust him." Rouge said with a glare towards her enemy. Remy saw this and flashed her a flirtatious smile. Rouge saw the smile and rolled her eyes before crossing her arms and sending a death glare his way before looking in another direction.
"I'm with Rouge on this one Professor. Scott said as he eyed their hostage questioningly. "How do we know this isn't just another trap of Magneto's?" Scott asked the Professor, not taking his eyes off Gambit. "I told ya already. Gambit no' be workin' fo Magneto no more." Gambit said with honesty and some annoyance seeing how he had already explained that fact more than once to the X-men.
"Right dude. And we're supposed to believe you because?" Spike asked Gambit. "The Cajun's tellin' the truth about that part, I'm almost sure." Logan had broken into the conversation and was actually defending Remy. "The kid aint got a scent of a single one a the Acolytes which means he probably hasn't been around any of em in a while am I right?" Logan looked towards Gambit who nodded in relief, seeing that someone had finally believed something he said.
"I still say it's a trap." Scott argued, though quieted down after seeing the look Logan was giving him for questioning him. Gambit threw his hands up in surrender. "Look, why don' we jus' do dis da easy way non?" Gambit asked the Team of Mutants who all looked confused. All except Xavier. He had wheeled himself over to Gambit and was now within reaching distance of him. "Are you sure about this Gambit?" The Professor asked Remy, though he knew it would probably be the best thing to do. Qui Monsieur. Jus' don go too deep inta Remy's head non?" Remy asked with a grin on his devil may care face. "Of course." Xavier replied as he reached his hands toward Gambit.
BAMF!!!! Kurt popped in with a cloud of sulfur yelling something about being under attack and other things that could not be deciphered because he was jabbing away in a mixture of German and English. "Elf calm down and tell us what the hell is the matter with ya." Logan ordered. Kurt took a deep breath and looked at his teammates. "Ze Brotherhood. Zey got in Vhen Ve opened ze doors vor da new girl." Kurt said a little bit slower, clearer, and in English now.
Xavier moved his hands away from Gambit and cleared his throat. "Everyone please remain calm. Jean, can you get a reading on where our unexpected visitors are?" The professor said in a very calmed, and cool voice. "Sure." Jean said as she put her hands up to her temples. After a few seconds she opened her eyes and looked around at her friends, who were obviously waiting for an answer.
"Well Mystique and Sabretooth just retreated and the brotherhood boys are trying to get into one of the windows in the west wing." "Oh great their after Cerebro yet again. Don't those guys ever quit?" Evan asked when he realized that Cerebro was in the west wing. "Or at least try somezing more original ja?" Kurt said to Evan. Both snickered a bit before looking up at the voice of Xavier.
"Alright everyone that's enough. Logan, you and Storm go after Mystique and Sabretooth. It's not normal for either one of them to leave a chance like this to get Cerebro in the hands of the brotherhood. They must have had a reason for leaving so soon and I'd like for you two to try and find out what that reason is." He said to the two mutants who nodded their heads in approval and understanding. They walked out the door and into the garage without another word.
"Scott take Jean, Evan and Kurt over to the west wing and try to get to the brotherhood before they do any serious damage if you would." The Professor said. Scott nodded his head in more of a military kind of way than Logan and storm had. "Ok team, you heard the Professor. Kurt can you port us over to the west wing?" Scott asked his fuzzy comrade. "Ja Voulg!" Kurt answered as he grabbed Evan and Jeans hand. Jean grabbed onto Scott to complete the chain. BAMF!!! Once again all that was left of the four X-men were the remaining clouds and smell of sulfur.
"Hank if you would, please come with me to the surveillance area and help me secure the alarms again. Rouge I would like you to stay here with Gambit until we can all reassemble once more." Xavier said and before Rouge could argue he and Hank had left the room.
She looked over at the boy who had a huge smirk on his face. "Ah chere. Fate has made it so dat Remy can finally be alone wit de beautiful fille." He said as he edged in closer to her. She hadn't realized it but she had some how made her way over to the couch that Remy was sitting on. Rouge merely rolled her eyes at the comment and gave him an annoyed look. "Do ya'll practice those corny lines in tha mirror before ya'll say em or does it just come naturally?" Rouge asked the suave young Cajun, breaking the silence. "Depends. Does de fille like em?" He asked, lowering his glasses a bit. She rolled her eyes once more and sighed, wondering when someone would come back and end this.
"Ya know chere, Remy tink yo' eyes is tres Beautiful." Remy said in a flirtatious voice. He was moving closer and closer to her with every word. Really Swamp Rat. Aint ya got better things ta do than annoy the hell outta me?" She asked, now turning to face him. "Well seein' how da Wolverine goin' an' forcin' Remy ta come down here." Remy trailed off. He was now so close to Rouge that she could have sworn she could hear his heart beating. 'Okay this is way to close for comfort.' She thought to herself.
The Cajun scooted even closer than she thought possible to her and leaned his head into hers. Rouge wanted to move. She even tried, but something was holding her back from doing so. And as much as she'd love to say so, it wasn't Remy who was holding her back. It was her own self that was keeping her from moving away. She felt his breath in her ear as he pulled back her auburn hair and whispered something to her in French. "She wasn't sure what he had said exactly but she'd got the jest of it and could feel her cheeks starting to blush. 'What am ah doin'?' She thought to herself. 'Ah can't be fallin for the Swamp Rat. Can Ah?' She glanced at the Cajun before returning to her thoughts. 'No. Ahm just not used ta boys actin like this around mah that's all.' She reassured herself before pushing her body away from the boy. "Oh come on now chere. Don' fight de passion. You neva gonna win." That's all Rouge needed to snap out of her puppy love trance.
"Why you vain, conceited, slime ball, swamp rat of a Cajun." Rouge called him as she stood in defiance. "I wouldn't love you if ya'll were the last livin thang on the planet." She shouted at him and threw a pillow at his face. "Ah de fille like ta play hard to get oui?" Gambit sat in a comfortable position and put his feet up on the coffee table across from him. "Ugh ya'll makin' me so sick and annoyed. Why dontcha jus' go crawl back under what ever rock in New Orland ya'll came from?" She said with a huff.
Remy stood to defend himself. "Might Gambit remind you dat it wasn' his idea ta come here in de first place." Gambit said, a little louder than he had meant for it to come out. "Yeah well ya'll brought that on yerself by tryin ta take that poor, confused mutant girl and givin her ta Magneto." Rouge said, now louder than Remy had been. "Oh yeah, well." Gambit had trailed off. "What you be talkin' bout chere?" Remy asked Rouge, clearly confused at what she had just said to him.
"Oh don't play dumb, swamp rat. Though as hard as that may be for ya. We all know ya found that girl and was gonna hand her over ta Magneto if Logan hadn't found ya first." Rouge stated matter-of-factly. Remy stood there for a minute trying to figure out what the gothic beauty in front of him was accusing him of. "Oh no monami. You don' understand. Remy non gonna hurt de fille. He jus' been takin care o' her." Remy explained, figuring out what was going on. "Oh sure Swamp rat. Like I'd believe that comin from an Acolyte such as yerself." Rouge said with her hand on her hip. "Ya know what chere? Fo'get it. You non gonna believe anyting Gambit tells ya eeder way." "Fine than. Jus' tell mah why ya'll had that girl with ya in the first place." Rouge said, now a little calmer than before.
She jus' drop in on Remy dats all. Nuttin more." Gambit said with his poker face. He wanted to keep Chloe's identity as quite as possible and for him to do that he couldn't go and tell the enemy she's his kid sister. "Oh really?" Rouge asked rhetorically. "You expect me to believe that she just dropped in on ya? Now ah suppose ya'll gonna tell mah she fell down from the skies right?" Remy had his hands out in front of him and it was a good thing too because just after Rouge had said that, Chloe and Kitty phased through the high ceiling.
Chloe let go of Kitty and Kitty just kept on phasing through the floor and down into the next level of the house. Remy caught his screaming little sister in his arms and grinned and Rouge who had a totally freaked out look on her pale face. "Some tin like dat chere." Remy said to the Goth as he flashed her a flirtatious smile once more.
"I can' go anywhere wit out havin' ta save ya can I?" Remy asked the girl in his arms. "Me? You're the one that needed saving. Mom told you that you should never pick fights with strangers." Remy looked at her and rolled his eyes. He looked to Rouge again and couldn't help but letting out a small laugh at the state of confusion she was in. "Whoa! What's the matter with her?" Chloe asked Remy as he looked from her older brother to the Goth. "She's jus' surprised to see ya Petite Soeur." Gambit replied.
He turned from Rouge to his little sister and looked her up and down a few times. "You got any scrapes o' cuts from de way ova here?" Remy asked his little sister after a while. "Nope." She replied triumphantly. "Oh well dats good. Cause if ya did Remy may a shown ya pity fo' what ya done to his bike but seein' how ya lookin' pretty healthy I guess I won' havta." Remy said, as he looked down at his little sister more sternly. Chloe pouted and sniffled a little. "I'm sorry Remy, but I was just so worried about you. Please don't get mad." She said half-heartedly with innocence in her voice and a pout on her face. Remy rolled his eyes once more and put his hands up in surrender. "Fine chere. But you not be allowed to use de puppy pout no mo' oui?" "Kay." Chloe said as her face lit up again and flashed her older brother a smile that was almost, if not totally identical to his own trade mark grin.
"Wait a minute. Ya'll know each other? Like personally?" Rouge asked. Now snapping back into reality. "Uh.duh." Chloe answered. "Didn't you tell them who I was Rem?" Chloe and Rouge both turned their attention to the Cajun. "Rem?" Rouge repeated, after hearing the Cajun's apparent nickname. Apparently he was nickname worthy to the girl which made Rouge wonder just how close the two really were. "Musta slipped Remy's mind." Remy answered with a matching innocent grin.
"Tell us what?" The rest of the X-men had assembled back into the doorway or the room and had heard everything sense Chloe phased through with Kitty and Jean was the first to speak up. "Like no way." Kitty piped up from her spot in the crowd. "What, what?" The rest of the X-men looked at her. Kitty had obviously gotten some knowledge out of the conversation that the rest had apparently missed. "You like just called her Petite Soeur." Kitty addressed Gambit. She had taken a few French lessons over the summer last year. "But that would mean." Kitty trailed off and looked from Remy to Chloe a few times.
"Kitty spit it out vill you?" "Yeah man. Tell us what's up Pryde." Kurt and Evan said as they annoyed her for some answers. Kitty's face cracked into a small, than larger smirk. "Of course. Why didn't I see it before? It's like so totally obvious." Kitty continued. "The hair color, the smile, the similar features. Though I guess it was the accent differences that threw me off." Kitty was smiling so much that her face was likely to peel. "HALF PINT!!!!!" Kitty looked over her shoulder to see an impatient Logan looking down at her. "Just tell us will ya." He said. This time it was Chloe who decided to speak up.
"Oh I'm like totally sorry. Remy, the moron, forgot to mention that I'm. well. his sister." She looked around at the looks of astonishment on the mutant's faces. She than looked back at Remy. "What is it with the people around here? Is it something I did?" She asked her brother. "Non chere. Mo' like some tin u said." He smirked at the astonished looks around the room.
"Whoa, whoa hold on one second. You mean to tell me that this kid is related to him?" Logan turned to the Professor. "Indeed it does." Xavier said. "You didn't tell them I was your sister?" Chloe asked her brother. "No reason to." Remy answered. Now what's dis Remy be hearin bout you tinkin de petites got powers? Remy asked, turning to Xavier and Logan. "You mean you didn't tell him?" Xavier asked Chloe who had suddenly made herself extreamly small and out of the picture. "She don' got powers monami." He told the Professor.
"Does she?" He asked, only now looking straight at his little sister and waiting for her to give him a straight answer. "Well I." She stuttered. "Chloe?" He asked. "Well it was only once and it only happened like a week ago and hasn't happened sense." She told her older brother. "And it's not my fault he got electrocuted. How was I supposed to know he would get electrified?" She asked him in annoyance. This was all very new to her and she thought he was being pretty harsh.
"Wait, wait! What's dis bout electrocutin' somebody? Merde you do got yo' powers don' ya?" He asked his sister, looking very stressed and irritated. "And he says I'm slow." Chloe whispered to Kitty, who giggled at her remark. 'Oh non, who'd you electrocute? If it be a man wit a metal bucket on his head an' a cape or a large cat man in need of a haircut den we gotta split." He told her, jumping to conclusions about the Acolytes. He grabbed her wrist and tried to drag her to the door. "Remy what the hell are you babbling about?" Chloe asked him as she yanked her wrist out of his grip. "De man you used yo' powers on. Who was he?" Remy asked impatiently.
"Oh.well I mighta accidentally electrocuted the mail man." She said with an innocent voice. "You what? Merde. Is dat why we aint been gettin' de mail fo' de past week?" Remy asked with an annoyed look on his face as he put his fingers up to his temples to decrease the headache that was already at a high level of pain.
"Don't get mad at me. Its not my fault it happened." She shouted. "Oui but it be yo' fault you didn't stay in de apartment like Remy told ya." He shouted back. "I'm fifteen. You can't expect me to stay cooped up in that apartment all day while you get to go out and do Who knows what with God knows who." She yelled at him.
"Ahem." Xavier cleared his throat, which silenced the two siblings. Excuse me. I don't want to brake up this little sibling session of yours but I would like to have a talk with the two of you." Xavier spoke up.

Just Dropping In
Chloe let out a scream as she hit the blue demon in the face and ran in a random direction. "Kurt you like so totally should have worn your holowatch." Kitty told him as she helped him to his feet. "Vanna try again?" Kurt asked his teammate. "Sure, if we can catch up to her I mean." Kitty said. "No sweat Katchen." Kurt grabbed her hand and ported a few feet in front of where Chloe was headed. "Ahhh." Chloe screamed in shock and ran again. She looked back at the creature that was following her while running and did not look where she was going.
She was about to run into an old Oak tree on the property when she felt someone grab her shoulder and she was phased through the plant. "Whoa! Its like a hologram." Chloe said to herself aloud. "Nine. It's Keety." Kurt said as he caught up to the two girls. "It's okay, he's one of us. Just. a little fuzzier." Kitty reassured the girl who was about to run again. "See." Kurt said as he did something with his watch and transformed into a normal looking teenage boy. "Oh.Sorry." Was all that came out of Chloe's mouth after seeing the mistake she'd made. "It's nice to meet you both. I think. Who are you anyways?" Chloe asked. "I'd ask you the same question. We're Mutants like you. And we only want to help you get control over your powers." Kitty explained. "My.?" Chloe was trailed off by a mocking voice to her left.
"Oh look. Blue boy's made a friend." Peitro Maximoff stood with the rest of the brotherhood on the inside of the gates to the Mansion. He laughed with the mocking words he said. "Ya know it's not as hard to get into this place when the alarm system's shut down. Thanks a lot X-freaks." Lance joined his teammate as Todd and Fred snickered behind them. "Who the hell are yo." Chloe was cut off by a puff of sulfur in her face, which she accidentally swallowed. By the time the smoky substance had cleared she was gasping for air. She looked around and realized that she was no longer on the ground by the gates but up on the roof with the blue boy and the valley girl.
"I'll go get Scott and the others. You stay here vit. Vhat vas your name again frouline?" "Uh.Chloe." Kurt ported off and left the two girls up on the roof. Chloe felt like she was going to be sick and probably looked it too because the valley girl started talking to her about it. "Don't worry. It's like totally usual to get airsickness the first time he teleports with you. I'm Kitty Pryde by the way. This is a school for mutants like you and me incase you haven't already like figured that out. The professor told us you'd be coming back with Logan. Although we didn't think you'd be bringing Gambit along with you."
"Yes. That was just icing on the cake for us." Chloe and Kitty turned around to see a blue woman with red hair. "Mystique." Chloe heard the valley girl say through gritted teeth. "I'd hate to ruin this little get together of yours but.oh wait. No I wouldn't. Sabertooth." The red headed woman ordered. A furious looking beast with long blond hair came into site and charged at the two girls. "Kitty look out!" Chloe charged at kitty first, thinking that they would just fall down out of the way. She did not however expect for her and her new friend to fall through the roof."

"Look monami. I aint done nuttin wrong an' needer as' m' sis.da fille. So if ya don' mind Gambit gotta go fin' her and get da hell outta here." Gambit moved to stand up from the couch in the living room but Logan stood and gave him a glare until the Cajun sat down again.
Remy was sitting in the living room of the huge mansion and was being questioned and observed by Storm, Wolverine, Beast, Cyclops, Jean, Rouge, Spike, and of course Professor Charles Xavier. "Ah still don't trust him." Rouge said with a glare towards her enemy. Remy saw this and flashed her a flirtatious smile. Rouge saw the smile and rolled her eyes before crossing her arms and sending a death glare his way before looking in another direction.
"I'm with Rouge on this one Professor. Scott said as he eyed their hostage questioningly. "How do we know this isn't just another trap of Magneto's?" Scott asked the Professor, not taking his eyes off Gambit. "I told ya already. Gambit no' be workin' fo Magneto no more." Gambit said with honesty and some annoyance seeing how he had already explained that fact more than once to the X-men.
"Right dude. And we're supposed to believe you because?" Spike asked Gambit. "The Cajun's tellin' the truth about that part, I'm almost sure." Logan had broken into the conversation and was actually defending Remy. "The kid aint got a scent of a single one a the Acolytes which means he probably hasn't been around any of em in a while am I right?" Logan looked towards Gambit who nodded in relief, seeing that someone had finally believed something he said.
"I still say it's a trap." Scott argued, though quieted down after seeing the look Logan was giving him for questioning him. Gambit threw his hands up in surrender. "Look, why don' we jus' do dis da easy way non?" Gambit asked the Team of Mutants who all looked confused. All except Xavier. He had wheeled himself over to Gambit and was now within reaching distance of him. "Are you sure about this Gambit?" The Professor asked Remy, though he knew it would probably be the best thing to do. Qui Monsieur. Jus' don go too deep inta Remy's head non?" Remy asked with a grin on his devil may care face. "Of course." Xavier replied as he reached his hands toward Gambit.
BAMF!!!! Kurt popped in with a cloud of sulfur yelling something about being under attack and other things that could not be deciphered because he was jabbing away in a mixture of German and English. "Elf calm down and tell us what the hell is the matter with ya." Logan ordered. Kurt took a deep breath and looked at his teammates. "Ze Brotherhood. Zey got in Vhen Ve opened ze doors vor da new girl." Kurt said a little bit slower, clearer, and in English now.
Xavier moved his hands away from Gambit and cleared his throat. "Everyone please remain calm. Jean, can you get a reading on where our unexpected visitors are?" The professor said in a very calmed, and cool voice. "Sure." Jean said as she put her hands up to her temples. After a few seconds she opened her eyes and looked around at her friends, who were obviously waiting for an answer.
"Well Mystique and Sabretooth just retreated and the brotherhood boys are trying to get into one of the windows in the west wing." "Oh great their after Cerebro yet again. Don't those guys ever quit?" Evan asked when he realized that Cerebro was in the west wing. "Or at least try somezing more original ja?" Kurt said to Evan. Both snickered a bit before looking up at the voice of Xavier.
"Alright everyone that's enough. Logan, you and Storm go after Mystique and Sabretooth. It's not normal for either one of them to leave a chance like this to get Cerebro in the hands of the brotherhood. They must have had a reason for leaving so soon and I'd like for you two to try and find out what that reason is." He said to the two mutants who nodded their heads in approval and understanding. They walked out the door and into the garage without another word.
"Scott take Jean, Evan and Kurt over to the west wing and try to get to the brotherhood before they do any serious damage if you would." The Professor said. Scott nodded his head in more of a military kind of way than Logan and storm had. "Ok team, you heard the Professor. Kurt can you port us over to the west wing?" Scott asked his fuzzy comrade. "Ja Voulg!" Kurt answered as he grabbed Evan and Jeans hand. Jean grabbed onto Scott to complete the chain. BAMF!!! Once again all that was left of the four X-men were the remaining clouds and smell of sulfur.
"Hank if you would, please come with me to the surveillance area and help me secure the alarms again. Rouge I would like you to stay here with Gambit until we can all reassemble once more." Xavier said and before Rouge could argue he and Hank had left the room.
She looked over at the boy who had a huge smirk on his face. "Ah chere. Fate has made it so dat Remy can finally be alone wit de beautiful fille." He said as he edged in closer to her. She hadn't realized it but she had some how made her way over to the couch that Remy was sitting on. Rouge merely rolled her eyes at the comment and gave him an annoyed look. "Do ya'll practice those corny lines in tha mirror before ya'll say em or does it just come naturally?" Rouge asked the suave young Cajun, breaking the silence. "Depends. Does de fille like em?" He asked, lowering his glasses a bit. She rolled her eyes once more and sighed, wondering when someone would come back and end this.
"Ya know chere, Remy tink yo' eyes is tres Beautiful." Remy said in a flirtatious voice. He was moving closer and closer to her with every word. Really Swamp Rat. Aint ya got better things ta do than annoy the hell outta me?" She asked, now turning to face him. "Well seein' how da Wolverine goin' an' forcin' Remy ta come down here." Remy trailed off. He was now so close to Rouge that she could have sworn she could hear his heart beating. 'Okay this is way to close for comfort.' She thought to herself.
The Cajun scooted even closer than she thought possible to her and leaned his head into hers. Rouge wanted to move. She even tried, but something was holding her back from doing so. And as much as she'd love to say so, it wasn't Remy who was holding her back. It was her own self that was keeping her from moving away. She felt his breath in her ear as he pulled back her auburn hair and whispered something to her in French. "She wasn't sure what he had said exactly but she'd got the jest of it and could feel her cheeks starting to blush. 'What am ah doin'?' She thought to herself. 'Ah can't be fallin for the Swamp Rat. Can Ah?' She glanced at the Cajun before returning to her thoughts. 'No. Ahm just not used ta boys actin like this around mah that's all.' She reassured herself before pushing her body away from the boy. "Oh come on now chere. Don' fight de passion. You neva gonna win." That's all Rouge needed to snap out of her puppy love trance.
"Why you vain, conceited, slime ball, swamp rat of a Cajun." Rouge called him as she stood in defiance. "I wouldn't love you if ya'll were the last livin thang on the planet." She shouted at him and threw a pillow at his face. "Ah de fille like ta play hard to get oui?" Gambit sat in a comfortable position and put his feet up on the coffee table across from him. "Ugh ya'll makin' me so sick and annoyed. Why dontcha jus' go crawl back under what ever rock in New Orland ya'll came from?" She said with a huff.
Remy stood to defend himself. "Might Gambit remind you dat it wasn' his idea ta come here in de first place." Gambit said, a little louder than he had meant for it to come out. "Yeah well ya'll brought that on yerself by tryin ta take that poor, confused mutant girl and givin her ta Magneto." Rouge said, now louder than Remy had been. "Oh yeah, well." Gambit had trailed off. "What you be talkin' bout chere?" Remy asked Rouge, clearly confused at what she had just said to him.
"Oh don't play dumb, swamp rat. Though as hard as that may be for ya. We all know ya found that girl and was gonna hand her over ta Magneto if Logan hadn't found ya first." Rouge stated matter-of-factly. Remy stood there for a minute trying to figure out what the gothic beauty in front of him was accusing him of. "Oh no monami. You don' understand. Remy non gonna hurt de fille. He jus' been takin care o' her." Remy explained, figuring out what was going on. "Oh sure Swamp rat. Like I'd believe that comin from an Acolyte such as yerself." Rouge said with her hand on her hip. "Ya know what chere? Fo'get it. You non gonna believe anyting Gambit tells ya eeder way." "Fine than. Jus' tell mah why ya'll had that girl with ya in the first place." Rouge said, now a little calmer than before.
She jus' drop in on Remy dats all. Nuttin more." Gambit said with his poker face. He wanted to keep Chloe's identity as quite as possible and for him to do that he couldn't go and tell the enemy she's his kid sister. "Oh really?" Rouge asked rhetorically. "You expect me to believe that she just dropped in on ya? Now ah suppose ya'll gonna tell mah she fell down from the skies right?" Remy had his hands out in front of him and it was a good thing too because just after Rouge had said that, Chloe and Kitty phased through the high ceiling.
Chloe let go of Kitty and Kitty just kept on phasing through the floor and down into the next level of the house. Remy caught his screaming little sister in his arms and grinned and Rouge who had a totally freaked out look on her pale face. "Some tin like dat chere." Remy said to the Goth as he flashed her a flirtatious smile once more.
"I can' go anywhere wit out havin' ta save ya can I?" Remy asked the girl in his arms. "Me? You're the one that needed saving. Mom told you that you should never pick fights with strangers." Remy looked at her and rolled his eyes. He looked to Rouge again and couldn't help but letting out a small laugh at the state of confusion she was in. "Whoa! What's the matter with her?" Chloe asked Remy as he looked from her older brother to the Goth. "She's jus' surprised to see ya Petite Soeur." Gambit replied.
He turned from Rouge to his little sister and looked her up and down a few times. "You got any scrapes o' cuts from de way ova here?" Remy asked his little sister after a while. "Nope." She replied triumphantly. "Oh well dats good. Cause if ya did Remy may a shown ya pity fo' what ya done to his bike but seein' how ya lookin' pretty healthy I guess I won' havta." Remy said, as he looked down at his little sister more sternly. Chloe pouted and sniffled a little. "I'm sorry Remy, but I was just so worried about you. Please don't get mad." She said half-heartedly with innocence in her voice and a pout on her face. Remy rolled his eyes once more and put his hands up in surrender. "Fine chere. But you not be allowed to use de puppy pout no mo' oui?" "Kay." Chloe said as her face lit up again and flashed her older brother a smile that was almost, if not totally identical to his own trade mark grin.
"Wait a minute. Ya'll know each other? Like personally?" Rouge asked. Now snapping back into reality. "Uh.duh." Chloe answered. "Didn't you tell them who I was Rem?" Chloe and Rouge both turned their attention to the Cajun. "Rem?" Rouge repeated, after hearing the Cajun's apparent nickname. Apparently he was nickname worthy to the girl which made Rouge wonder just how close the two really were. "Musta slipped Remy's mind." Remy answered with a matching innocent grin.
"Tell us what?" The rest of the X-men had assembled back into the doorway or the room and had heard everything sense Chloe phased through with Kitty and Jean was the first to speak up. "Like no way." Kitty piped up from her spot in the crowd. "What, what?" The rest of the X-men looked at her. Kitty had obviously gotten some knowledge out of the conversation that the rest had apparently missed. "You like just called her Petite Soeur." Kitty addressed Gambit. She had taken a few French lessons over the summer last year. "But that would mean." Kitty trailed off and looked from Remy to Chloe a few times.
"Kitty spit it out vill you?" "Yeah man. Tell us what's up Pryde." Kurt and Evan said as they annoyed her for some answers. Kitty's face cracked into a small, than larger smirk. "Of course. Why didn't I see it before? It's like so totally obvious." Kitty continued. "The hair color, the smile, the similar features. Though I guess it was the accent differences that threw me off." Kitty was smiling so much that her face was likely to peel. "HALF PINT!!!!!" Kitty looked over her shoulder to see an impatient Logan looking down at her. "Just tell us will ya." He said. This time it was Chloe who decided to speak up.
"Oh I'm like totally sorry. Remy, the moron, forgot to mention that I'm. well. his sister." She looked around at the looks of astonishment on the mutant's faces. She than looked back at Remy. "What is it with the people around here? Is it something I did?" She asked her brother. "Non chere. Mo' like some tin u said." He smirked at the astonished looks around the room.
"Whoa, whoa hold on one second. You mean to tell me that this kid is related to him?" Logan turned to the Professor. "Indeed it does." Xavier said. "You didn't tell them I was your sister?" Chloe asked her brother. "No reason to." Remy answered. Now what's dis Remy be hearin bout you tinkin de petites got powers? Remy asked, turning to Xavier and Logan. "You mean you didn't tell him?" Xavier asked Chloe who had suddenly made herself extreamly small and out of the picture. "She don' got powers monami." He told the Professor.
"Does she?" He asked, only now looking straight at his little sister and waiting for her to give him a straight answer. "Well I." She stuttered. "Chloe?" He asked. "Well it was only once and it only happened like a week ago and hasn't happened sense." She told her older brother. "And it's not my fault he got electrocuted. How was I supposed to know he would get electrified?" She asked him in annoyance. This was all very new to her and she thought he was being pretty harsh.
"Wait, wait! What's dis bout electrocutin' somebody? Merde you do got yo' powers don' ya?" He asked his sister, looking very stressed and irritated. "And he says I'm slow." Chloe whispered to Kitty, who giggled at her remark. 'Oh non, who'd you electrocute? If it be a man wit a metal bucket on his head an' a cape or a large cat man in need of a haircut den we gotta split." He told her, jumping to conclusions about the Acolytes. He grabbed her wrist and tried to drag her to the door. "Remy what the hell are you babbling about?" Chloe asked him as she yanked her wrist out of his grip. "De man you used yo' powers on. Who was he?" Remy asked impatiently.
"Oh.well I mighta accidentally electrocuted the mail man." She said with an innocent voice. "You what? Merde. Is dat why we aint been gettin' de mail fo' de past week?" Remy asked with an annoyed look on his face as he put his fingers up to his temples to decrease the headache that was already at a high level of pain.
"Don't get mad at me. Its not my fault it happened." She shouted. "Oui but it be yo' fault you didn't stay in de apartment like Remy told ya." He shouted back. "I'm fifteen. You can't expect me to stay cooped up in that apartment all day while you get to go out and do Who knows what with God knows who." She yelled at him.
"Ahem." Xavier cleared his throat, which silenced the two siblings. Excuse me. I don't want to brake up this little sibling session of yours but I would like to have a talk with the two of you." Xavier spoke up.
