Insane
Logan looked out of the window of the jet. He lost his last hope to find her. It had been the third time that Charles thought he knew where she was. They never found anything.
Scott watched him and sighed. He felt so guilty. Jean wanted to grab his hand but he flinched back. She had betrayed him, she was always playing with him. He had to stop it. For Rogue, she never had understood why he wasn't breaking up. He saw her hurt face but it didn't matter to him. Not anymore
Storm closed her eyes in despair. The team was breaking apart. Everybody was losing hope. Nobody was talking, Scott seemed to break up with Jean. Logan seemed to be in his own world, sunken in self- pity. Charles felt also guilty and spent his whole time in Cerebo, trying to find her. The students were scared and confused by their behaviours. Kitty, Jubilee and Bobby missed Rogue a lot but they still believed in her return and never gave up hope.
She sighed. "Please come back Rogue", she pleaded quietly. Because she realized that this unseen young woman was all that kept this school together. Slowly and unnoticed she had stolen everybody's heart.
Back in the factory:
Rogue couldn't sleep. She knew Dan would at the earliest arrive in 4 hours. But she was too nervous and frightened. She had enough time to think about her life, after all she maybe would die that night. She missed everybody so much. Even Logan, the man who broke her heart. She knew him, she knew the real Logan and why he did something like that didn't make sense to her.
She could feel the professor in her mind often , but of course he couldn't figure out where she was. All he could see were grey walls, some blankets and a small lamp. She just hoped he would be able to read her mind so he knew she was still alive, still waiting for help and still believing in them. At last she wasn't that alone. Dan was really a nice guy and she liked him a lot although he had done a lot of shit, kidnapping her for example. But he had become a dear friend of her since their last conversation nevertheless.
He had gone through hell, always standing behind his older brother who was much more loved by their parents. He tried to explain to her why he helped Greg to kidnap her and she understood. He felt so guilty about that and he really wanted to help her out. She sighed and covered herself with a blanket. All she could do was waiting and hoping that she would get out of this alive.
Greg wandered around. His look was hunted and disconcerted. Dan sat on a chair looking the same although for a different reason.
"Why isn't he calling"? Greg asked and paced around even more.
"He will soon", Dan answered knowing their chef wouldn't call. He had cut the telephone- connections to make sure he could save Rogue.
"Maybe we just should test it without him telling us to. He will understand", his brother said and he grinned in a sick way.
"No!" Dan yelled and jumped up. Quickly he lowered his voice. He mustn't make him distrustful. "I mean, he clearly told us to wait for him to tell us. I'm sure he would be very angry".
Greg glanced to him and shook his head. "Doesn't matter to me. I'll go and get the poison".
Dan felt the panic rise up inside. He saw his brother running to the door and he realized that Rogue would die. He didn't hesitated, took a heavy book and crashed it on his head. Greg fell to the floor. A few seconds Dan stood still and watched his brother but some how he felt nothing. No guilt, no bad feelings cause knocking him out. And he realized how much he really hated this man how had destroyed his life. And then he ran out without looking back. Because it's never too late too change.
He opened the door of the room. Rogue stormed to his side. He face scared and confused. "What are you doing here? I thought we would go at night".
"Greg went insane.. he wanted to test the poison on you.. now. I knocked him out for a while but not long. We have to go", he yelled and took her gloved hand in his.
They ran through the hallways. They were dark, the walls all grey and naked. Rogue could hear Greg's screams and felt her beating heart. She pleaded that the professor would read her mind right now and he would see where she was. That was their only hope. Dan stopped and looked around, to the left and the right. She realized he had no idea which way. They heard Greg coming nearer. She felt the tears form in her eyes again.
Back in the mansion:
Logan sat in his room and stared out of his window. He was numb inside, he didn't feel anything. And he was glad, he didn't. Finally the pain and this borderless fear had stopped. Rogue was dead, that was for sure. Storm kept telling him not to lose hope but he did. He would never be able to see her again, or telling her how much he loved her.
So he sat there. Sunken in his self- pity. But suddenly Storm ran in. Her face was flushed and heated. "Logan! Logan!" She yelled excited.
He looked up. "That's my name", he muttered.
But she didn't let put off by it. "We found her. We really found her! She's alive"!
In the factory:
Dan noticed her fear and her tears and grabbed her shoulders. "Look at me Rogue! I'm gonna protect you, okay. It's my fault you're here so I'm gonna bring you out of here. I'll never let anything happen to you"? She nodded and sighed. She remembered how often Logan had said this to her and how much it always comforted her.
He dragged her into a dark corner. "Stay here. I can handle him!" She looked at him sceptical. Greg was crazy, nobody could foresee what he would do next. But she nodded and pressed against the wall.
And in this moment he appeared around the corner. Rogue gasped by his enraged face. He ran up to Dan and grabbed him by the collar.
"Hey! You fucking son of a bitch! Where is the girl? Tell me"! He shouted and shook his brother.
Dan shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know. I swear! She ran away before I could catch her", he said with shaky voice. He didn't believed that he would buy this shit.
And he didn't . He stared at him in pure hate. "Liar. Bloody, dirty liar! You knocked me out you asshole. And you helped her to escape. I'll kill you", he screamed and pushed him against the wall. Dan crashed against Rogue who helped him up quickly. But when she looked up she saw Greg standing in front of her.
He grinned. "Look what we've got here. The little slut"!
He stepped closer and she flinched away in fear. She felt the panic rise up in her again. But suddenly Greg was knocked to the floor again. Dan jumped on him and punched in his face.
"Run! Run as fast as you can", he yelled to her without turning around.
And she did it. Like a robot she moved through the hallways. She didn't look back, she just ran. Without knowing where to go. She felt like running in circles, she had no idea where she was. But somehow she managed to find the door. She stormed out and didn't even stop when she felt the wet grass under her bare feet.
When she arrived the woods she stumbled and fell down. Sobbing she laid there and tried to clam down. After a few minutes she whipped away the tears and sat down by a tree. It was dark and quiet. No sound was heard. And she decided that she was save, at last for awhile. And before she could do anything else she fell asleep.
