Rogue attempted to remove her collar when she felt a tranquilizer dart lodge itself into

her arm. She then looked to Mystique who clutched the gun firmly. Rogue blinked a few times

before falling to the cage floor. " Young people." (( couldn't resist a movie quote))Magneto

scoffed as he lifted his hands and levitated the cage down the hallway and into a laboratory room.

A smirk crossed his lips as he set the cage down and ripped the hinges off with his magnetic

abilities and levitated her onto a cold metal examination table, stomach down and applied the

restraints. Mystique then stepped in as she handed Erick a small microchip type of device, which

he punctured, into the back of her head. It served as a tracking and feeding device locating

certain memories and repressing them deep into the mind. It was also capable of inserting new

memories of one's choice. False images replaced the truth in Rogue's mind showing the X-men

as sworn enemies, Mystique as a caring and gentle mother and Magneto as a kind mentor who

looked out for her ever since she was a child. Even images of Rogue and Remy's love were

masked away for the time being. More images of the X-men appeared all of them brutally attacking her, Magneto and Mystique coming to her aid. These false memories replayed

themselves until they began to take root. As she awoke she fought with all of her power to resist

but it was all useless. A single tear ran down her cheek as she whispered softly. " Remy'" she

knew that she would soon succumb to these lies. " I love you..."

The blackbird started as Scott turned on the ignition. Remy was second about followed

by Wolverine, Jubilee and Jean. Storm and Beast decided to remain with the professor until he

attempted Cerebro then they would join the others. The doors to the blackbird closed as the jet

began to taxi down the runway and took flight into the dark sky. "Oh..." Jean said " The professor

has managed to locate Magneto in Southern Ireland..." Scott set the coordinates and his

magnetic wave radar. They used this many times before to aid in tracking him to a key location.

Remy grew impatient shuffling his cards repetitively. " Can't this thing go any faster mon ami?!"

he demanded. Scott groaned and sighed softly. " Look, I'm doing the best I can." Remy said

nothing. At this point they were half way across the Atlantic Ocean.

Rogue slowly opened her eyes and sat up upon the table. Her restraints had been

removed and her clothes had been changed. Her X jacket and belt had been hidden, her new

uniform was a blue and black body suit. Slowly hopped off the table " Momma!" she called out

softly "Good you're awake." Mystique said cooly as she stepped into the room and smiled. " Mah

head feels all fuzzy...what happened?" Rogue asked trying to recall. " The X- men attacked you

my dear." Magneto said as he stepped into the lab. " Lucky for us we were close by....they

attacked us as well; you received the most damage...but your fine now." He fibbed. An image

then appeared upon the surveillance station, which was also located. A camera above ground

spotted the Blackbird landing near by. " Well now dear...you can repay them for the generosity

they showed you earlier." Magneto said. Rogue cracked her knuckles and took to the air. " It'll be

mah pleasure!" she shouted over her shoulder as she vanished from sight and took the elevator

to the surface. Where she found herself face to face with the X-men.

Jade: Cliff hanger...muhahahaha!
