By the time it came to go to school tomorrow morning, Rogue would have a lot of explaining to do as to why her arms and face were so cut up. Whoever this person was, she didn't care but she had every intent on taking them down before someone saw her. Of course, that would've been easier (and less painful) if she had snuck her X-men uniform into her suitcase. Although, she had to admit that her old uniform from the Bayville Sirens was a lot cooler and allowed for better movement then her black and green cat suit.

                Following below, the tires protected by a dim blue light, Tabitha and Wanda weren't far behind. Tabitha was dressed in her old Sirens uniform too while Wanda was clad in the blood red costume of the Scarlet Witch.

                The car they were driving was stolen, but that wasn't the problem (neither was Tabitha's driving though Wanda would beg to go against that statement). Trying to navigate the car through the people and crashed cars was a problem. Oh, it would've been so much easier if Kitty had come with them! They could've just phased through all the obstacles instead of going around.

                Yusuke and the others looked on in stunned surprise. They had never seen anyone do this sort of thing before.

                "I don't believe it!" Kuwabara shouted. "Those girls…they're…they're mutants!"

                "I wondered why their spirit energy felt different," Yusuke added.

                "Excuse my asking," Botan began, "what's a mutant?"

                "They're kind of like a new species of humans," replied Yusuke, "I don't know the whole story on them but I heard that there's something different in their DNA that gives them power, I think their calling it the 'X-gene'"

                Koenma sat at his desk watching the scene of the battle unfold. Never had he thought that the humans would be able to gain power like this. It was incredible! Though it was against his better judgment, he wondered if he would be able to get them to join Yusuke and the others in recapturing the escaped demon. It was risky, very risky, and since Yusuke and Kuwabara seemed to know them, they might not like the idea of pulling them into their mission.

                "Boom Boom!" Rogue called over the communicator, "Ah can't do this forever, we gotta taker 'er out quick and quiet!"

                "Well, what do you want us to do?" Tabitha replied. "We can't fly like you can!"

                "Have Scarlet Witch hex bolt her, at least long enough for me to absorb this girls powers!"

                Rolling the window down, Wanda stuck her head and entire torso out the window, holding tight to the roof of the car with her left hand, her right glowing with blue light. Sparks of power snapped and cracked between her fingers as she took careful aim. Rogue and that other woman were moving so fast! It was hard to follow them.

                "Rogue! Get outta the way!" Tabitha shouted. A beam of blue shot past her, hitting the other woman in the back. Like a shadow, it quickly engulfed her and Meibatsu's hands went to her throat. She couldn't yell, and without the sonic waves keeping her in the air…

                All eyes were wide as they watched Meibatsu plummet to the ground, Rogue dive bombing after her. Out of nowhere, the car skidded to a stop and countless orbs of gold shot from Boom Boom's hands, exploding on contact with the falling demon.

                "Such great power!" Kurama stated, "They've taken her as easily as if they have done it their entire lives!"

                "I have to admit, that one girl's flight speed was impressive" Hiei said. He got a surprised glace from Yusuke and Kuwabara. It took a lot to impress Hiei.

                Just as the demon was about to hit the glass covered ground, Wanda's hex bolt slowed her to a sudden halt in her fall, a mere two feet from the ground. Rogue touched down and quickly rushed forward, throwing her black gloves to the side. Frozen where she standing, Rogue's hands touched her face. Freeing herself from Wanda's powers, she shoved Rogue aside and wobbled to her feet, weak from the power drain. With a last ear piercing scream, she shot off into the night sky.

***

                Tears ran down her face as Rogue's mind replayed Meibatsu's memories. The pain, the struggling, the incontrollable longing to kill the one who had betrayed her, all of it filled her.

                "Rogue? Rogue are you okay?" Tabitha said running to her.

                "Dark…it's so dark…oh mah gawd!" Rogue whispered painfully.

                "Come on, let's get out of here before we get caught!" Wanda snapped. Helping Rogue to her feet, the three of them piled into the car, and sped off.

                Author's Note: Um…ordinarily I would have something to say…but this time I don't so I'll just thank all you nice people who reviewed.
