Rogue's eyes snapped open as she woke from yet another nightmare about area 51. Her skin tingled with a prickling sensation as she rolled over in her bed and buried her head under her pillow. After a few minutes she curled up into a ball and began to sob at the memories that were resurfacing.
-Trask Lab Memory Sequence-
A hand lashed out and hit her across the face. Rogue fell to the ground, eyes hardened, not saying a word, not crying out once. "Get up." Trask ordered.
"No." Rogue gasped as she held her stomach. She had been beaten so hard she thought her ribs were broken. Trask kicked Rogue in the stomach at her disobedience, and Rogue cracked and cried out. 'Oh gahd make 'em stop!' she cried in her head.
"Fine then… un-cover Weapon
X's tank." Trask said with an evil tint to his voice. Rogue raised her head only to see a tubular tank filled with blue liquid, wires, and Wolverine. 'No! Not Logan…gahd no!' She cried silently to herself. "Start the process." Trask said. A scientist flipped a switch and Wolverine began to get electrified.
"No!" Rogue cried. "Don't hurt 'em, don't!" Blood leaked down her cheek as she said this, pooling around her broken body. Cuts from past beatings re-opened and began to add to the slowly forming puddle.
"Well, you're not cooperating, what else am I to do?" Trask asked innocently. Rogue sighed as she contemplated her choices. She bowed her head and sighed. She had no other choice but to tell them, for Logan…for herself.
"Ah'll tell ya, just leave
'em alone." She whispered. She turned her head away from a smirking Trask.
"Good…stop the process. Now…Rogue…where is she?"
"She's…she's in Brazil" Rogue whispered. Trask smiled.
"Continue the process…take Rouge back to her cell; smack her around a bit before handing her over to # 235, so she knows not to defy me." Trask said. The scientist turned the switch back on and gazed at Wolverine's form. Rogue's screams could be heard throughout the complex as she was dragged from the room and savagely beaten. When they finally stopped and threw her into her cell she stared at the ceiling as Remy fretted over her. All day Rogue lay there, not wanting to face reality. She let Logan get hurt, but worst of all she told them where her mother was. She couldn't stand it. Her best friend was sitting in a tank being tortured and she had given away the location of her mother. She had told her not to. Only Kurt and she were to know. They somehow repaired their relationship so they were on speaking terms.
-Bayville Flashback-
'Rogue, Kurt, you to can't tell anyone that I am going to Brazil. This conversation never happened!'
Mystique said. Rogue nodded and so did Kurt. 'Take care of yourselves.' She said as she transformed into a bird and flew away. Rogue looked at Kurt and Kurt looked at her. After a few minutes they hugged.
-End Flashback-
'Poor Rogue…wahhh! Until you're stuck in someone's brain do not play the 'My life sucks, no one understands!' card…OK?!? Get over it, you failed. Blah blah-' Carol said before Rogue made the shields fly up. There was a hurried banging sound seeping through the wood work of her door. Rogue swung her legs out of bed and walked over to the door. She opened it and saw how anxious Kitty's face was.
"Rogue! You need to help! Wanda's gone, like, crazy! She attacked Pietro!" Kitty screamed. Rogue raised an eye brow.
'Good, that little bastered deserves it. I don't know him and even I don't like the hyperactive freak.' Carol grumbled.
"Why?" Rogue asked.
"Wanda said something about her memories being erased." Kitty said. Rogue's ceiling fan fell to the ground as her mirror shattered.
"Oh gahd, we're gonna die!" Rogue exclaimed. She ran out of the room and began the trek down the hallway to the stair well. She ran up the stairs into the main room where Wanda was going haywire. Rogue measured her options, and when she saw the rest of the brotherhood cowering in a corner she leapt upon Wanda with an uncovered hand and placed it on her neck. Rogue wrapped her legs around Wanda's waist so she wasn't thrown off. Wanda, of course, didn't like that, so she felt the need to back Rogue up into the big screen TV right before she fainted. Rogue sat up and shook her head, and began to pick glass out of her back. She twitched as Pietro tried to help her.
"You back stabin', murderous MAN WHORE!" Rogue screamed, Wanda's personality taking over.
Rogue hexed a stack a CD's and had them fly at Pietro.
"Great. Now we have Rogue to worry about…this just isn't my day, yo." Toad said as he hopped away. Fred ran up to Rogue and tried to knock her out, but she just made a fridge fly at him. Then Gambit smacked her in the back of the head with his re-tractable staff. He caught her before she hit the ground and looked at Kitty.
"Ya knew dat she would do dat, didn' you?" He asked. Kitty smiled. She took Rogue in her hands and turned for the door leading to the exit.
"Thanks…Gumbo." Kitty said. At that precise moment Lance ran out from Kitty's room looking all pale like.
"Kitty's unconscious-" He began as he saw her walking towards the exit. Remy's thoughts clicked at that point and ran after the fake. Kitty transformed back to Mystique and broke into a run. She ran out the door with Remy trailing her. She dropped a little smoke bomb and jumped out of the tunnel with Rogue and hopped into a helicopter. Remy jumped out also, only to see Mystique and his bebe flying off into the night.
