Summary: Oh here's an original idea…. Let's see the letter and Rogue's reaction to it! Then for fun let's see what HOMe's reaction to meeting Lance is!

Chapter 9
Durcheinander8
Rogue was still a little confused as to why HOMe was waiting by her bed when she came home. She was about to ask him to leave when he stood up and handed her a letter.
~Remy-Man ask HOMe give letter to Rogue-Queen. ~ He handed her the letter and ran out of the room downstairs towards Kitty.
Rogue just rolled her eyes and pulled out her new CD player, someone had left it and two brand new CD's in her locker. She knew in the back of her mind that it was more than likely Remy trying to get on her good side but she didn't care and she flopped down onto her bed. She was about to listen to her favorite Marilynn Manson CD when she heard a loud scream coming from the mansion porch. She smiled to herself when she realized it was Lance Alvers. Lance had met HOMe and Rogue was laughing at the possibilities, after all Logan was the one who told him about Lance…

When HOMe ran down to meet Kitty he was surprised by the boy that was sitting on the front porch talking to her. He supposed that they, like Jean and Scott were engaged in a courtship ritual, so at first he thought it best to stay low and out of site. That is until he heard the young man's name: Lance. At the mention of the name HOMe jumped to the ceiling and waited for them to enter. He didn't want to hurt Lance, just scare him a little.
When the door opened next Kitty was holding Lance by the hand and guiding him towards the stairs. HOMe took this moment to act landing behind Lance he tapped him on the shoulder with his tail. When a confused Lance turned to see him the next thing heard through out the mansion was an earth shattering scream followed by a light tremor as Lance bolted towards the door in pure terror, but no matter how fast a terrified teenage mutant is a xenomorph is almost always faster and HOMe grabbed Lance by the collar so he couldn't run away.
Kitty was sure that everyone knew why Lance was screaming, and then Jamie walked in, the only person in the whole mansion who was still terrified of HOMe. He left two seconds later in sheer utter terror. The exasperated teenager just turned to her boyfriend who was now on the floor in the fetal position whimpering.
"Like, some brave and worldly protector you are!" she joked as she helped Lance to his feet, "Lance this is my friend that I was telling you about."
The still terrified young man only stared at the exoskeletal nightmare that was standing in front of him. HOMe sat down so not to be so intimidating and it seemed to work.
"Come on lets, like go to the common room." Kitty said as she phased right through a wall.
Both the xenomorph and the young man shrugged their shoulders in dismay, because both had to cross enemy territory to get to the common room. For HOMe Scotts room was on the way and for Lance it was double duty as both Logan and Scott were currently gunning for him.
~Lance-Friend follow HOMe, HOMe get you to Kitty-Queen safe. ~ Lance hadn't expected the creature to speak and was now just staring at it as it walked towards the common room, ~This way silly, follow HOMe. ~

Rogue sat in her bed listening to the last of CD's and finishing her home work when she thought of Remy's letter. The thoughts of the letter kept crossing her mind until she finally gave in and opened it all the while cursing the Cajun under her breathe. When she unfolded the letter a small necklace fell out. She read the letter to her self and then laughed uncharacteristically while hugging a pillow. The letter fell to the floor, here is what it said:
Cherie,
I hope this letter reaches you. I don't doubt that it will though after all, the little one that I am asking to deliver it seems fiercely loyal to you and your friends. Remy hopes that you like the gifts as well and here is a something little extra. Wear it and always think of Remy. Rappelez-vous mon amour: Vous ne pouvez pas cacher vos sentiments derrière un masque de blanc et de noir pour toujours. Remy sait vous vous sentez, a laissé Remy à l'intérieur.
Love
Remy LeBeau

"Rappelez-vous mon amour: Vous ne pouvez pas cacher vos sentiments derrière un masque de blanc et de noir pour toujours. Remy sait vous vous sentez, a laissé Remy à l'intérieur " means "Remember my love: You cannot hide your feelings behind a mask of white and black forever. Remy knows how you feel, let Remy inside."
