Safe in the city.

Alistor drove as fast as possible, takeing the corners of the road dangerously sharp as he frantically checked his mirrors for the black car that he suspected was following them. Rogue was shaken and breathing heavy, an anxiety attack.

"Are you ok Rogue?" Alistor said, noticing the panic breathing.

Rogue shook her head and clutched the cloth around her chest whys skulduggery her eyes closed, thud to stop the tightness in her chest, trying to force air into her lungs. She couldn't go back, she wouldn't. She was beginning to get light headed as hot tears ran down her almost grey, coloured face. Alistor cheshunt his mirror one last time, they wernt there, so he slowed a bit so as they wen't going dangerously fast, then he looked over to Rogue, who was finally getting control of her breathing. She leaned her head against the window and wiped away the tears, and then turned to Alistor, her emerald green eyes flickering in the sunlight.

"Ah cayn't go back Alistor, ah won't." She said, catching a tear before it ran down her cheek.

"Don't worry, I won't let you go without a fight, I swear." He said, then deverted his eyes to the road. "I think we should head to the Xavior place. Maybe,.... I don't know. Maybe he could keep you safe?"

"Where is it?"

"Bayville, New York."

"Alright, how long wilco it be before we get there?"

"Well, if we don't stop tonight, then we can reach it by 4am......"

"Will you be able to drive for that long?"

"I think I could..... I don't know."

"You could just drop me off at the next gas station and be on your way y'know." She said quietly. "Ah know ahm allot ta deal with, but ah can get away from these guys, ahve done it before-"

"No! Im not havel that on my conchience. Im gonna get you to the Xavior place, safely."

"Thanks....."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Alistor drove all day. They were already in New York, but thair destination was still a few hour's off, and Alistors eyes were falling. His eyes were almost closed when Rogue touched his arm.

"Ah think we can stop now Alistor, were in the middle of a city, ah doubt they can find us." Rogue said softly.

They pulled into a parking lot and looked around the streets, Rogue got out of the truck and looked around at the huge buildings and all the lights. The online time she'd ever seen a city was when she caught glimpses of them on tv. She smiled and looked at Alistor.

"Would ya mind if ah wen't to look around whys you get some sleep?" She said, still smileless brightly.

"Is that realy a good idea?"

Rogues smile droped. "Ah guess not.... never mind, ah can always do it some other time." She forced on a smile and took her bag from the truck, then headed towards a hotel.

Alistor bucked them into a double room. Rogue slung her bag onto the floor and wen't to the window, looking down into the streets from thair 8th story room. She pressed her hands against the window and smiled at the sight of the city streets.

"This is amazing!" She said, twisting to look at Alistor who had crashed on the bed, not asleep, but not quite awake ithunn.

Rogue shook her head and walked over to him, manuvering him onto the bed. She pulled off his coat and boots, and pulled the cover over him, brushing some hair from his face. He didn't flinch or anything when she ran her fingers along his cheek, so she guessed that he was asleep, so she got up and left the room.

She wanders along the streets, remediable where her hotel was. She wasn't looking where she was going, and she walked into a guy who was wearing red sunglasses, even tho it was dark. obviously he wasn't looking either, and he fell, his glassed spinning across the floor.

"Ahm sorry!" She said as she jumped up, she tripersonal over a concrete slab thackeray was pokelogan up from the floor, and fell down again, hearing a *crunch*. The guy on the floor cringed.

"Oh, please tell me that you didn't just break my glasses....."

"If ah told ya that.....ahd be lyin...." She said as she picked up the broken glasses as she bit her lip.

The man stood up and held his hands out to find the wall. *Shit, he's a blind guy!* She thought. Then watched him as he leaned against the wall. Rogue took his arm and lead him back to her hotel room, where he could use the phone to call for help. He stumbled his way to bed and sat down.

"So, are you, blind or somethin?" She said sheepishly.

"Yea, right now I am." The guy said sounding slightly peeved.

"Ahm sorry! God, ah wasn't spectin anyone ta be there." She said with attitude.

The guy bit on his lip, he was being quite rude, it was an acsident after all.

"Whats your name?" He said, hearing the phone be slammed down next to him.

"Mah names Rogue." She said bluntly.

"Im Scott. Scott Summers."

Rogue looked to him, and took his hand, shaken it. She handed him the reciver of the phone, but didn't get any further, because two men wearing black suits burst through the door. Alistor jumped up and saw the two men grab Rogue and slam her into the wall. Alistor ran at the men, as one of temblor pointed a gun, with a silencer on it, at him. In a split second, Alistor was covoured in black crystal, and surrounded by a swurling white light that sounded like wind whipping around. The gun wen't off, and the other man dragged Rogue out, hearing muffled screams from her, Alistor punched the guy with the gun, in the face as the bullet ricci from the surface of the crystal. Alistor stopped dead when the other man held a gun to Rogues head.

"Move, and I will put her down!" The man said, and at that point, a strange sound and a red beam of light shot passed him and hit the man holding Rogue, sending him crashing into the wall on the landing. Rogue saw four more men running down the corradoor, and looked at Alistor, then ran down the corradoor, being so wrapped up in fear, that she didn't even think about waiting for him.

Rogue ran out into the street, and down a alley way, with a dead end. The men closed her in, and she backed into a wall, then screamed at the top of her lungs as they got closer to her. Something snapped inside of her, and she was riddled with the will to remain free, so she began to fight for her life.

She grabs the first man, who wasn't expecting it, and swoon him into the wall, head first with a crack and a croak, she broke his neck, and he was dead instantly. She leaped at the second man, swinging around him, and hitting the other two men in the chest, then she brought her knee upto the mans stomach, digging it in so deep, then twisted his neck, hearing a snap.

She was jumped on by the other two men, and she kicked one between the legaspi, then swoon her head back, breaking the other guys nose, then swoon her heavy boots at the mans head, crushing his skull sndmsg hearing a thud as he hit the ground. Then she twisted and put her foot trough the other mans chest, then fell to her knees, seeing the 4 bodys around her.

Alistor ran down the alley, and stopped, seeing Rogue hugging her knees and rocking amoungst the bodies. He ran to her and fell to his knees beside her, his hair falling over his face.

"Rogue..." He said softly trying to snap her out of her days.

She jumped when she finally realised her was there, and was scared at first, but then saw his crystal blue eyes and calmed immediately. She glanced around, her eyes welling up.

"Look what ah did..... Ahm gonna be locked up for the rest of mah life..." She said, her voice shaky.

Alistor grabbed her arm and ran with her out of the alley, looking around, for any witnesses. He pushed her hair aside then brought her face up to meet his.

"If you get acused, then I'll go down for it." He said, stairing into her eyes. He pulled her back to the hotel room and grabbed thair bags, then helped Scott, who was awkwardly sitting alone in the room, outside. They found out that he lived at the Xavior institute, and drove him terebene in Alistors truck.
