~ ~ ~ ~ ~ That same night ~ ~ ~ ~
** Finally*** Marie said hearing his even breathing and a light snore escape his lips. She kissed him lightly and said her apologies for what she was about to do. She quickly dressed and washed up quietly, making sure not to wake him. Then she sat down in her meditating stance and focused her energy towards the tags like Magneto had been teaching her. Within an instant she felt the tags lose power and her powers come back full force with vengeance. She smiled and used Magneto's stolen powers to break the chain and she slipped them into her pocket. She gave a wicked smile and strutted predatorily towards the metal double doors that separated her from the rest of the compound.
With a flip of her hand the doors swished open and she stepped out, and with another wave of a finger they closed, locking her mate safely inside.
"Come on boys Ah want to play..." She said with a wicked smile on her face, rage in her eyes and a growl to rival the best of Wolverine's. She unleashed the razor sharp bone claws that Wolverine had given her the first time she had absorbed him. She had known about them since the day after he had accidentally stabbed her but she refused to tell anyone. She didn't want the complications of lab testing and, well being probed by Jean.
She kicked off the ground and flew down the halls, killing anyone and everyone, leaving behind hallways of dead bodies in different methods of death. She slit their throats, stabbed them with her claws, gutted them or smashed in their heads and she did it all with a smile on her face. Every time she would feel remorse she would remember what kind of remorse was given to her Logan, what they did to him and what she vowed to do to them. So she continued the onslaught with a smile on her face and death in her eyes. She had left innocent Marie lying next to Logan, this was Rogue, this was her inner Wolverine.
In the span of two hours she had killed every single person in the rather small compound, except two. Her good friends the doctor and General Wilson. She smiled as she landed herself in front of the doctors door and knocked politely.
"Doctor Ah'm here for my check up..." she said innocently. But the doctor didn't answer his door, so with a wave of her arm she let herself in.
There was the great man himself, huddled in a corner, scared to death by the others, and he gasped as he saw her. Her hands were covered in blood and her lips were red and smiling, her eyes full of rage and vengeance. She scared the shit out of him.
"Hey doc. Do you know what it feels like to be skinned alive?" she said propping her self on the lab table and playing with the claws in her hands, picking her nails with them.
"Well, by your lack of answer Ah would have to say that's a no." She jumped down and kneeled close to his ear.
"If your a screamer, please then do, scream." She said and then brought her hand up above his head and then down. And scream he did.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Wilson was packing his things, he had heard the blood curdling screams of his soldiers, the cries of help from the doctor and her bone jarring laugh as she strutted predatorily down the hallways to his office. That's what she was, a predator, oh and not just any predator, she was one with a taste for revenge in the form of blood. It was too late to pack, because even as he picked up his gun, he looked up and saw her standing there.
"You really pissed me off, really." She said looking down and giving a small laugh. " You can hurt me all you like, but then you go and hurt my Wolverine. Yeah you really shouldn't have done that." She started to growl now and move inch by inch closer to him.
"You may have brought in the Wolverine, but with him you brought something much worse..." She said getting so close to him that he could smell the blood.
"You brought in his mate." He didn't even have time to scream.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Logan awoke when he smelt the blood. It was thick and heavy in the air, there was a hell of a lot of it. He began to panic when he noticed Marie was gone, he growled and banged on the doors.
"Hold on sugah, let me open 'em" came a thick southern drawl from the other side, a smile spread on his face, ear to ear. But the smile faded once the doors slid open and he saw her covered in blood.
"Marie..." He said as she wavered and collapsed in his arms.
"Ah got us into this mess and Ah got us out Logan. They hurt you so Ah went and hurt them." She said waving her hand around. Logan's eyes got huge as he saw her 'claws'. She noticed him staring and retracted them quickly.
"Marie, baby what happened?" He said rubbing the spots between her knuckled from whence her claws came.
"The first time Ah was touched by you, well Ah found out the next day Ah had 'em, Ah just never told anyone. They already feared me, why give them more to fear?" she said sadly.
"Oh Marie, I am so sorry."
"No Logan, don't ever be sorry. Ah love you and you; surprisingly love me, that's all that matters now. Come on and help me get cleaned up." She said motioning to her current state.
He just chuckled and turned on the shower and let the blood of their enemies and his horrid past, wash down the drain.
Marie was tired, she had used a lot of energy during her massacre. Her clothes lied in a bloody heap on the floor. She looked at Logan as he was cussing, trying to find a shirt or something to cover up her naked, shivering body, she gave a giggle and took the towel from the towel rack.
"Logan, Ah want to get out of here sugah, as soon as possible. Its overwhelming my senses." She said crunching up her nose. He looked at her and nearly laughed. Here was his girl, just cleaned off from a bloodthirsty fulfillment of a revenge full vow, innocently saying she wants to get the hell out of there 'cause it smelled bad. He hadn't lost his Marie at all.
"Darlin' we have to find you some clothes, it's freezing outside and I don't want your little butt to freeze solid." He said smacking her behind and walking past her. Directly in front of their cell was a soldier uniform closet, he smiled to himself and pulled out the smallest size he could find.
"Here you go Marie." He said throwing the clothes at her. She muttered a thanks and dropped her towel. Even after the longs days with her and seeing her naked he couldn't help but stare, but after realizing what he was doing her quickly averted his eyes. She noticed his actions and was slightly puzzled, but she got dressed quickly anyway. She was wobbly on her feet again, the clothes were entirely too big and heavy, not helping matters. So Logan came up behind her and picked her up.
They walked down the corridors in silence, Marie guided him through the compound, conveniently guiding him away from the carnage and successfully making it out side with out seeing the house of horrors she had created.
Logan noticed her itching her knuckles and winced, he had laid a heavy burden on her shoulders, the new claws.
"Marie, do they hurt?" he asked curiously as the headed towards the woods.
Marie smiled up at him and quoted their first conversation.
"Every time sugah. But don't you worry yourself. If Ah didn't have these Ah wouldn't have been able to clear the way home. Where Ah would be able to fall asleep safely in the arms of my mate." She said cuddling closer to his chest. The words hit him so hard that his breath caught in his chest and he had to stop and cough.
"Want to run that last part by me again Marie?" he said, she looked scarred but still repeated her words.
"Be able to fall asleep safely in the arms of my mate." She said looking fearful that he would run off.
"Now just that last part." He said.
"My mate." She nearly choked.
He put her down and she was on the brink of tears.
"Logan, Ah'm so sor-" but she was cut off when he grabbed her face in his big hands and gave her a fierce and loving kiss. He let her go when the need for air became too much.
"Wow." She managed to say after a couple of seconds gaining her breath. "So your not mad sugah, you don't want to run from me?" she said timidly.
"Never again Marie, will I ever run from you. A wolverine mates for life." He said with a grin that Marie adapted and spread across her face.
"Do you think Ah would have killed a whole army for you to have it any other way?" she said jumping into his arms and giving her own loving kiss back.
A/n: ahh isn't that sweet. But do you think they are really out of the woods yet? And where are the rest of the x-men. Review and find out!
