Chapter Eight: Sudden drama and I don't blame Rogue for hating me...
Disclaimer: see first chapter
Wa~! There's not much movie left for me to do! But please enjoy this part!
***********************************************************************
We didn't ride the helicopter all the way to wherever we were going. In fact, I really didn't notice anything until I found myself sitting on a boat across from Rogue, who looked very distressed for some reason. Parenthetically, the DNA machine was riding in the boat with us.
"So. What are you doing here?" I asked Rogue, evidently not grasping the situation at all.
"I was kidnapped!" She sobbed, bursting out in tears.
"Woah... The one time in my life I try to make small talk, and it makes people cry... It's no wonder I don't do it more often..." I said to myself. Eventually, Magneto came in, talked with Rogue for a while, during which I learned that Rogue was going to die. Oopsie.
**********************************************************************
Eventually, I found myself at the very top of the Statue of Liberty. I had actually never seen it in my life before, being from the west coast, but it was rather impressive...
"I can see the stars!" I declared, looking up to the sky. "And fireworks! A bunch of baka humans are setting off fireworks! Ah, they must be celebrating their upcoming mutation!"
"Perhaps, Chi." Magneto turned to me after issuing orders to the other minions. "You must begin to gather up enough electrical energy to power the machine."
"Gotcha!" I saluted him, then he left with the others. Rogue was now handcuffed in the machine, but I didn't pay much attention to her. I was too busy noticing that my powers were somewhat tapped out from the Dragon Slave I casted a few chapters ago.
"Why are you helping him?!" Rogue demanded, in tears again. I turned to her. I really did feel bad, but I wasn't about to go against what Magneto-sama wanted...
"'The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few... Or the one.'" I smiled. "I quoted Spock! Hee hee hee!"
She looked at me like I had lost my mind, and I felt myself become serious.
"Now look. I stand by Magneto-sama to the bitter end because he was the first person besides Chu that has dared to be around me since I got my powers. That means a lot to me. It's kind of like you and Logan... Though I wouldn't go to that extent." I paused for a moment. "And besides, I adore pathetically devoted men!!"
"Devoted?" Rogue looked quite perplexed. "To what?"
"To his wife! You see, even though she's been 'dead' for so long, he still—" I paused, coming back to reality. "Oh never mind. You haven't watched the series, so you don't know what I'm talking about. So I'll put it this way: he's devoted to what he thinks is right."
This didn't make Rogue feel any better, so I had another brilliant idea.
"You don't want to die without something yummy, right?" I pulled out a candy bar that I had stuck in a well-concealed pocket. "Here. Have a Snickers." I set down the candy bar beside her. "It's a little squished, but I think it's okay..."
She still didn't seem to be any happier.
"Look, wouldn't you rather die with a nice chocolate-y taste in your mouth?" I paused momentarily. Rogue was crying again. "See, when I try and make people feel batter, they just feel worse..." I mumbled to myself as I turned away and began to do as Magneto-sama had told me. It really helped when a sudden lightning storm came up, so I assumed that Storm was around here somewhere...
***********************************************************************
Eventually, Magneto came up to the machine, and quickly commanded that I activate it.
"From the despair of Rogue's heart, I commit to thee this blast!" I made another big kamehameha-like move and yelled "SHI SHI HOKODAN!!"
Again, my power poured out from me, and everything turned black...
***********************************************************************
When I came to, the movie was over, and I was back the Xavier's.
I dimly recognized the room that Chu and I shared... And noticed the huge gap in the bookshelf that happened to be there because I took manga away.
"Chu's gonna be mad... Shouldn't I be in the infirmary?" I wondered quietly.
Chi, are you up to coming to my office? I heard Xavier ask.
I don't wanna. I replied. After a moment, I added, Did you kidnap me? What happened to Magneto-sama?!!!
If you will come to my office, it will be explained. He said simply, and severed the connection.

So, that's it! Please see the epilogue!
