"GONE! What do you mean gone!?" Logan stormed around. Xaviars desk. She had
been missing for three weeks. No one could find her. Not even Cerebro.
"Logan we've done all we can. We're still investigating. Thats all we can do."
Logan pushed over the desk, "Well that doesn't seem to be good enough!" He stalked out the door. He went to the orchard. The last place she had been seen. The whole place still smelled of her. He had let her down. He was supposed to protect her and he failed.
"Mon amie." Logan was suprised to find someone had actually snuck up on him. He was either losing his touch or this guy was good.
"Who the fuck are you?"
"Gambit know where dey keep 'er." Gambit's posture was slumped but is eyes stayed on the big man before him.
"Where is he, this Gambit person? Where is She?''
"Dat would be me, mon amie. Gambit no like what dey do to 'er. But Gambit no can get 'er 'imself."
"Let's go. I'll kill you later for what ever part you played in the whole business. Deal."
"Fine."
Logan wasn't going to let those stupid ass X-men get in his way. They don't know what they're doing. They'd just get in his way. He was only letting this, this Swamp rat get in the way because he knew where they had her. Logan knew this ass wipe was involved some how but he'll have to deal with that later. All that matters now is Rogue.

"Da lab is over dis hill."
"Lab! You never mentioned a lab before." He grabbed Gambit's coat. "She better be fine Cajun, or you'll be begging for me to kill you. Get Me!"
"Gambit get you, but none o' dis help da girl. Mon amie."
"Let's go. And don't call me that, what ever it means."
"it mean "my friend" and if we get out wit' our lives maybe we's relly will be friends."
"I doubt it, bub."
The two unlikely pair creeped up over the hill to the Laboratory that was holding Rogue captive. Each one hoping that they are not too late to save her.
The Cajun actually seems like he knew what he was doing. After getting himself and Logan into the Lab, they snuck down the halls.
"She dis way."
Logan thought for a moment that this could possible be a trap but changed his mind. He can sometimes spell a lie and this would be too big lie to not be noticed.
"Here. She in dere." The huge steal doors would be a small challege but Gambit was already at work.
He was whisling Hi Ho the Rattlin Bog. Leave it to a cajun to sing a bout a swamp. "Got it." the doors swung open soundlessly. Logan barged in.
Rogue was strapped on to a lab table with barley a scrap on. "Rogue. Rogue wake up we're here to get you outta here. AH, Cajun give me your jacket to wrap her up in." Logan removed the chains as Gambit removed his jacket. Gently and carefully he wrapped up Rogue and headed for the doors.
"INTRUDERS! INTRUDERS!"
The alarms had been set off. The doors were closing.
"Game over mon amie. We be caught."
"No not yet! Take her." He handed over Rogue reluctantly. But he needed his hands. It was a simple matter to claw through the metal. "Come on cajun. Let's get her out of her."
No time at all before they were heading home with Rogue in tow.
But would this be the same Rogue that every one knows and Loves?
