PS: I don't mind critics, just be specific! I just don't like reviews saying *That was bad, you should kill yourself!* Give specific examples please! I only got a 3 on my AP Language and Composition test!
Chapter 4
Rogue's Carnage
Emergency lights flashed as the ambulance entered the hospital's entrance. Dr. Ethan Clark quickly moved from his position on the sidewalk and rushed to the ambulance. The doors opened and with ease coming from experience, he picked up the gurney with the help of the paramedics. A 50 year old man laid comatose with his eyes opened, staring blankly out at the world. Ethan did a double check on the man's pulse as he ran along side the gurney. It was faint but it was there. "What happened?" The sliding doors automatically opened, as they rushed past the waiting area towards the examining room.
One of the paramedics responded as they transferred the man onto a bed with ease. "No one knows. He has the signs of electrical shock and is in trauma, but his co-worker who found him didn't know what happened."
Ethan paid attention to the paramedic as he instructed the nurses around him. "What does he do?" The room was full of chaos.
The paramedic started to back out of the room to get out of everyone's way. "Just a paper pusher."
"Maybe his computer surged."
"Maybe" the paramedic left the room as the man started to convulse violently. Dr. Clark had abandoned the conversation as he tried to determine what they could do for this man.
Henry Guyrich walked out of Senator Kelly's office building, on his way to do an errand for the Senator. He walked towards Capitol Hill with the budging folder underneath his arm when he stopped in mid-step. A newspaper caught his eye from the newsstand. He picked it up and frowned. This was not good. Reaching into his blazer pocket, he pulled out his cell phone and dialed. "We have a problem."
Rogue walked saucily into the Magneto's office, a far cry from the girl who was frightened to enter the lair. "You rang, sugar?"
Magneto's metal desk was littered with newspapers. He didn't bother to look up from the one he was currently reading as he said, "You have created a problem, Rogue."
She shook her head, her hair billowing behind her, "a problem?"
He made a noise as he looked up from what he was reading, "A problem"
"What kind of problem?" His attitude frightened her a bit.
His face was grim, "I must admit that even thought you have only been here for 4 weeks, you have done an amazing job. Our plans are coming around wonderfully, but I do have a cause for complaint. Why did you leave a trail?"
"A trail?"
"Is there a reason you are repeating me? Yes, a trail." His voice became frustrated as he tossed the paper he had stopped reading at her. "Why did you decide to become a sucking machine, brother?"
Rogue barely had to glance at the headline on the front page to know what he was talking about. "I couldn't help myself. I only did to the ones that I needed to. Look," she pulled handed him the file in her hand, "I got the plans you wanted. The man just got in my way so I had to…"
"They are calling it a disease. It wouldn't be that much of a problem besides the fact you didn't kill them. You know sooner or later they will wake up and report you. Then you won't have your anonymously anymore…"
"I am sorry, I just…with Henry inside my head, I needed to find away to quiet him, but now there are so many inside me. The imprinting is so addicting, it is like a drug…"
Magneto looked at her with disgust in his voice, "Addicted to your own power. Shame, with the World's Leaders meeting in 4 days, I guess it is time for us to start the next faze of our plan sooner than anticipated." He reached inside his drawer and tossed something at her.
Rogue fingered the small metal disk, "What is this?"
"Remember the fragility I told you was your biggest asset for us? It is time to test it out."
Rogue found herself back at the bar where Mystique picked her up. She swallowed hard as she walked back into the Lion's Den. Again there was another fight, and again the man in the metal cage was there. She kept her hood close to her face, hoping no one would recognize her. If everything went according to plan, she would never have to worry about being herself again.
The voices in her head yelled for justice for what she done. Rogue would give them justice for what they had done.
AN. Dun dun dun! Rogue got into some trouble from the boss! Opps, know what is going to happen if she enters the school after meeting with Magneto? Review and you will find out!
