Chapter 4: Irresistible

REMY

I was trying to think of something to say to keep petite from leaving when the words slipped out and I took a deep dive into shallow waters. In response to the dumbest thing I could possibly imagine a guy saying in this situation such as this, she gave me a hug, and a long one at that. At first I was shocked, but it all sank in, I guess the dive I took was into her arms, I was enjoying it a lot when she pulled away. She looked into my eyes deeply and I was dazed, caught in her net, the one that she had woven slowly over the years with her lips, her hair, and her body. All I saw were those eyes, the truest brownest I don't think that's an actual word, but you know how guys get when they're all gaga googoo. eyes I've ever seen and those pouty lips as they came closer and closer to mine until they touched. I only realized her true intentions after it was too late and I was falling into a deep sleep as she gently pulled away leaving me .....

ROGUE

I felt Remy's memories rushing to my brain, but the contact was short, no matter how long he may have wanted it to be, I waved my hand outside the school for a taxi. Once I was inside I asked for the train station, but something in me hoped to be back in there again, the place I had called somewhat of a place I belonged to for a short time. does she mean the school or Remy's arms, you decide!

REMY

I woke up with a splitting headache and a bit of a empty feeling all over my body, I grinned a bit as I remembered what had went on, but shook away the after effect of her aphrodisiac as I started to head out the door to see the professor when I bumped into Logan, the homme with the dangerous claws.

He said gruffly, "Hey gumbo you better watch where you're going? And what were you doing in Marie's room?"

"Umm. well I was worried about her. She seemed upset." Which reminded we of the pleasure I would have of kicking Bobby's ass.

"Where is she now bub?"

"Umm, I rubbed the back of my neck in response to the question for a while, well you see, she was upset--."

"Yea I already got that!"

"--so she ...left."

"What!" He began to walk away from me, hurrying to find her when he came frighteningly close to my face and warned, "You better not have done anything to her Cajun, or I'll rip you to pieces."

As he walked away and I cocked my head to make sure he was out of sight, I fixed my shirt and went to find Bobby.

"O hi Remy, what's up." He said as I walked towards him. I was beginning to get worried, he had never met me and I was pretty positive that the homme wasn't interested in meeting a man like me, one that can get under his skin and take over his territory. I took my hands and grabbed his checkered collar and slammed him against the wall.

"What did you say to Marie and who are you." Just then he kicked me in the chin and hard, I had no idea the young boy had so much acrobatic skill. I was right he didn't, in fact it was a woman, a blue woman to be exact.

"Mystique." I muttered under my breath, "What the fuck are you doing here?"

"For this." She opened her hand to reveal the device that she had stolen from the mansion's safe. It was the PDD power depletion device, I know its corny but I just couldn't keep on calling it "the Device" I grew concerned, something that a man on a mission should never do, especially when Mystique was one of his obstacles to success.

"That's mine." I took out the Bo staff and unfolded it smacking it right across her face. The PDD slid across the floor and I grabbed for it when she tripped me. Just then I jabbed her in the stomach with the other end of my staff. She stumbled just long enough for me to grab it and kick her unconscious. I placed it in my pocket as I ran out to meet Louis.

LOGAN

I raced to the professor to ask him where was Marie, I couldn't let her out of my grasp especially if it had to do anything with that cocky Cajun. I met up with Orora on the way, or...more like she tried to stop me from disturbing the discussion they were having and followed. When I entered I said the only thing that I could think of, "Where is she?"

The professor figured it out and everyone eventually caught on. I was anxious to find out where she was as the prof came out of cerebro, but they stopped me from going.

I had to find my own way...

REMY

"Louis, are you there Louis?" I hated this so much, meeting with a guy in a dark corner of an alley, and the possibility of getting stood up, by a guy.

"Yea, Ah'm here, what's going on at the school? Everyone seemed tense." He smiled knowing that he knew the answer and it would just make my blood boil reminding me. His eyes glazed over, they looked just like mine, but they had a lighter indigo color rather then the midnight black I had in my eyes.

"You know very well what happened that night with ... Marie, hopefully you were just as attentive when I got this from Mystique."

"Chill homme, although I think I care about her just as much as you do, she's one bella femme. I was tempted to walk inside the school and talk to her once or twice."

"Louis, she's not like any of the other femmes you've gone out with-." He cut me off, I realized the foolish mistake of those words.

"And she's not like any of the other femmes you've brought with you to your room. I know how much of a difference she has to those easy girls down south, even the ones that put up a little fight...only to fall in your arms in defeat." I understood what he meant, too clear for my comfort. I wanted to be the only guy that liked her like... that, loved her like that. And I wanted to be the only person that received that love back at least for forever.

My feet walked me away from him and he asked me an obvious question, "Wher' you going with da device, Remy?"

"I'll take care of it, for now."

"Well you better take good care, that thang is worth a life and a fortune."

"You know just as well that it's worth more fortune than life to me, whatever it might mean for you doesn't mean we're after the same thing."

"Ah don't give a rats ass what you thank, Jean Luc's lyfe is at stake, I'll do whatever it takes, even if it means.... well lets not let this go to that, after all we are brothas."

"Yes, that we are, but not friends." I walked away with the PDD in my hand, squeezing it tightly.

As I headed towards the mansion, I saw Logan in a mad driven stance to the garage door.

"What's going on homme?"

"What's going on, bub, is that Rogue is missing from the institute and she's at risk just as much as me of getting captured by Magneto, so unless you want to wait and see, I suggest you get out of my way."

STORM

The young girl had ran away, making Logan worry furiously and I had to do my best to find her, for her safety and perhaps ours. At the train station, I tried explaining to the clerk what she looked like when I saw shock appear to his face. I had little chance turn around as a talon-covered hand grabbed my neck. My eyes turned milky white, I could feel it and lightning strike him leaving me to gasp for air.

ROGUE

Inside the train I was too upset to watch the woman caress her child with her warm fingers, when Logan sat beside me. I was glad that he cared, but unhappy that the good chance he had of making me turn back and I was afraid that he knew it too.

We had decided to go back when the train split open, it reminded me strangely of the scene from Final Destination. Logan ejected his claws when Magneto arrived, I was apprehensive to move.

I thought I never see the day when I was in a situation such as this... running away from a psycho maniac who was basically going to take over the world, the only thing that rushed in my head when the dart pierced my neck was..... why?
