Disclaimer: I do not own anything. At all. *Pa Grape comes out (veggies)
Pa: but that's not entirely accurate (Sorry, Jonah moment).
Ayashe: Oh, he's right you know, I own the school, Ghost, the students,
with some exceptions of Karina, Stephanie, and Samantha. Otherwise all X-
Men characters belong to Marvel Comics.
[A/n: Oh no! I just realized I haven't updated since February! How could you guys let me get so far behind? I feel so disappointed in myself. AND I forgot the disclaimer last chapter. *Repeatively hits self in head* Hey! I just got an idea for the chapter!]
A School in the Middle of Nowhere Chapter 7: Never a Damsel in Distress
Day 3 Continued
(After school; the main entrance)
Rogue walked sulkily out of her eighth period class, Family and Consumer Sciences, better known as Home Ec. She mumbled angrily to herself that Kitty was the one who needed to learn how to cook, not her. "Ah don't need that class! Ah KNOW how t' cook, thank ya very much!" she grumbled as she pushed her way out the front doors.
She looked around the schoolyard, and pushed past a group of girls that were commenting on how badly they thought she was dressed, and how she had egg yolk on her shoulder. She wanted to drain their memories from them, but decided against it to keep herself from thinking like them. She made it to the sidewalk, and started searching for someone's car. "Ah do NOT want to walk home lahke this!" she screamed not being able to find any of them.
She started walking around the school angry that they left her there. As she turned the corner she almost ran smack dab into her teammate.
"Sorry!" Lelia blurted out even before noticing who it was, "Hi Rogue, I am SO sorry, I should really pay attention to my own powers. It's just I can't find Scott anywhere, and he's supposed to be driving us back to the hotel. And I couldn't find Jean either!"
"It. It's ok, Ah cahn't find them either, way Ah figure they left wit' out us!" Rogue said as she continued on her way before noticing a huge crowd of people all encircled around something. "Whatta ya suppose is goin' on here?" Ghost asked her, "A fight?" she asked again, pointing out the most obvious answer considering most were yelling out 'fight!'
Rogue sneered at her and pushed her way through the crowd; glad she was wearing her jacket today. "Alright move over! Ah need t' get through here!" she said making her way to the front leaving her comrade behind. Eventually she made it to the front of the throng only to find her missing teammates Jean and Scott. Scott was standing there, taking various insults from another boy.
Jean begged Scott not to fight and that it was stupid. "I can't Jean! This guy wants to kill me! I don't want to fight him either, but he's going to hurt everyone else if I don't," Scott told her trying to convince her. Jean lowered her eyebrows and glared at Mellissa next to her. "I suppose you're enjoying this?" she said angrily, "Can't you see that Scott doesn't want to fight over you? He doesn't want to fight at all! Can't you call off Jordan? Pretty soon neither of them are going to think you're worth fighting over!"
"You still don't get it do you Red? I wanted this to happen, Jordan WILL fight for me; he's the one that challenged Shades. He just wants to get rid of him for me. And I do believe he's doing a very good job of that already," Mellissa remarked as Jordan threw the first punch.
Rogue watched Scott clumsily dodge the hit, and not even retaliate. 'What is his problem? He could take out this guy in a minute flat,' she thought to herself. "That's it, Ah cahn't stand this anymore!" she said as she stepped in front of Jordan and caught his next punch in mid air, and pushed him back by surprise. "Hey! You mess with one of us you mess with us all! An' at least Ah'm not afraid to fight back," she hissed at Jordan as he stood up again.
"Rogue don't!" Scott yelled out uselessly at the girl.
"Oh yeah Skunk-head? Whatcha gonna do 'bout it? I could take you down right here, right now," Jordan spat back at her.
"Then let's see it. C'mon, try an' beat me," she goaded him on.
Jordan's temper rose and he didn't care that his fight wasn't with her; he was going to fight her anyways. He ran at her, trying to take her by surprise. Rogue was ready though; she flipped him over on his back. "Ah hope ya learned a lesson," she said as she walked past him and over to Jean. "C'n we go back t' the hotel now?"
[A/n: And I do believe I'll stop here. I had fun with this chappie, I wanted to do something a little bit different than the "I can't touch anyone so I'll be here sulking away doing nothing and wear black all the time" Rogue. And I wanted to raise Jordan's temper even more. So, how'd you guys like it? Please review!]
