Red-on-black against the night sky.

Ah fell real slow, ah knew that ah was gonna end up on a streacher or somethin! Thats juss how bad this day was. Ah closed mah eye waitin' for the huge amount of pain that usualy comes when you fall off a wall or somethin', but it never came. Instead ah was cushioned and slowed to a soft halt about 4 feet off the ground. Ah opend mah eyes to see him standin over me with, yet another damn smile on his stupid face! He had one arm under mah knees and another under mah head. That damn Cajun caught me! Ah don't know why, ah don't know how but he did.

"Dat was just cruel chere. Remy was only tryin t' help."

The guy was real warm. Ah wante'd to stay in his arms an juss fall asleep. and those eyes, crimson on black against the appearing stars......wait! What am ah sayin! Anyway......ah scrambled out of his arms and stepped away from him.

" Why are you doin this!"

"Doin what petite?"

"why are you messin with mah head."

Gambit looked to his feet and then back at me smilin.

"Remy told y' before chere, Ah aint tryna hurt y' none. Remy just wonned to know how y' was."

"This is bull shit! Whats your'e game Gambit."

He grinned at me. Stupid grin!

"Gambit has no game chere."

Ah was gratefull for him savin mah ass and all, but there was something about him that just made me wonna boot him.......so ah did. Ah heared the Jet cumin over to the mantion grounds and landed down the drive, It took mah attention....duh!. As ah was lookin at it ah saw scott Ororo and Logan dash out and head towards me. Ah terned back to Gambit just in time to see his fist in mah face. He hit me so hard that ah fell right back to the floor...! Gambit came and kneeled down next to me, leanin real close.

"y' tell de Gambit to fight you when you cant win......an all ah won't is t' see you chere."

He touched mah hand and backed off slowlwy into the darkness. Then ah looked up to see an upside down image of Scott, Logan and Ororo standidng over me. Logan helped me up whyl the other two flooded me with questions, who what when where why! Ah started walking towards the door just egnorin everyone, ah felt so stupid! Kirt jumped infront of me, looking at me confused with his yellow eyes.

"Vat vas zat all about?" He said in panic.

"Shuv off kirt.....ah don't feel like talkin right now!"

"Oh dont be like zat, you know I love to bug you."

He gave me a big toothey grin and poped off...........then Logan ran up to me. Ah realy thought that he was goin to gaive me some kind of lecture for skipping school or something, so ah roled mah eyes and crossed mah arms.

"Ahm sorry for letting you gat hurt erlier kid. that shouldn't have happen.... Hows youre head." He said quietlt...yea quietly so as no-one heard him bein concerned.

"Ah think ahv got brain damage,......and ah realy need an asprin!"

Ah said rubbin at mah jaw. Logan just laghed and lead me inside. Ah guess he wasn't mad at me anymore, so we started talking whyl we were inside, he told me that, the professer had no idea that ah had skipped school. He also explained how he found me in the forest, he was looking for sabertooth when he picked up mah scent. That explaind allot ah guess. {Rogue sighned her jernal and closed the book, before getting into bed and swiching the light off}
