=======================================================================

The rest of the day went by slowly and dully.

Rogue rested on the couch, trying to take a nap. But of course with Fred trying to catch Todd, and Lance causing a minor earthquake every time Pietro pissed him off, Rogue found herself exhausted with a need to sleep. Like she was going to get it though.

The untouchable Goth soon found her thought traveling once more to Scott Summers and Mystique.

Ah have to find out what happened to meh, she thought seriously. She also wanted to check on Scott. And maybe that Professor guy might have some answers too.



Not even bothering to declare her leave, Rogue simply escaped quietly out the front door, and jumped into Lance's jeep. She started it up, and tried to remember the way to the X-men's mansion. With all the faded memories of Scott, Kurt, and Ororo combined, she could barely make out the directions to the mansion.

As Rogue pulled out of the driveway, Lance flung open the front door.

"Rogue!! What the hell are you doing?!!" The earthquake- producing mutant asked wildly.

"What does it look like Ah'm doing?!" She retorted back, quickly going a little faster.

It's like he's got some metal link with this jeep, Rogue thought dully. Soon though, she found herself taking the right streets and turns to lead her to the X-men's base.

After ten minutes, the worried Rogue drove onto the path that would lead her to the front gates. Her concern for the X-men's leader was growing.

But someone sprinted across the road far in front of her. Rogue could barely make out a large, dirty blonde man in a brown trench coat charging into the bushes off to the side of the road. The man looked familiar, so Rogue swerved the jeep and braked. Taking a deep breath, the ability absorbing mutant focus on memories that were not hers.

"Sabertooth." She answered simply in a whisper.

Off in the distance, Rogue could hear some music playing off in the bushes. Worried, Rogue unbuckled her seat belt, and propelled her self off the hood bar of the jeep, landing in front of the car.

Why am Ah doing this?



 The reluctant Brotherhood member moved through the bushes, passing a few tree. She hung low, incase she needed cover. To her surprise, she saw Kitty Pryde and Evan Daniels in a small clearing. But Sabertooth was right behind them.

Rogue watched as the feral mutant moved on the dancing Kitty and Evan with his video camera.

Ah've got to warn them, Rogue thought anxiously. Even though they weren't really her friends, she wanted to warn them about the danger at hand.

"Look out!!" The untouchable mutant cried, causing the three mutants in front of her to pause and look her way. Rogue broke into a run, and leapt in the air. Her foot contacted with Sabertooth's chest, and sent him stumbling backwards.

Kitty and Evan stared at her wildly.

Thank yous are welcomed, you know? Rogue glanced back at Sabertooth, whom was already up and charging. The feral mutant advanced on the closest mutant, Evan.

Sabertooth swung his claws quickly, barely missing Evan, but smacking his video camera out of his hands. The electronic device crashed along the ground a good distance away.

As Evan glanced to the side, Sabertooth swung again. Escaping the attack by even less than before, the claws only tore through the front of Evan's white sleeveless T-shirt.

Rogue moved up to Sabertooth, delivering a round house to his side. But that attack only redirected his attention to her. Sabertooth swiped at her, tearing through her green fabric sleeve.

"Ah see someone wants themselves drained of everything." Rogue remarked at the mutants attack at her skin. Using her partially bare arm as an offense, Rogue bent down and leapt forward, arm folded in front. No skin contact was made though, as Sabertooth caught her around the waist and flung her through the air.

"Rogue!" Kitty and Evan cried out in unison as their untouchable rival bounced off the ground and slid further away.

But as the two X-men's attention was on Rogue, Sabertooth grabbed onto a non ripped part of Evan's shirt, and lifted him into the air over his head.

"We've been expecting you." Evan stated slyly, popping out spikes along his chest. They popped through his shirt and pricked Sabertooth's hands. "You gotta be sharp if you're gonna mess with the Spyke."

Sabertooth grunted, and threw the spiky mutant into the air, and turned his attention to a frightened Kitty.

"Then I'll take you!" He growled, lunging at her.

"Right. I'm so sure!" She remarked, as Sabertooth passed through her and hit the ground. But as Kitty glanced worriedly at the other two teens, Sabertooth moved up behind her. As she turned around, the feral mutant struck with a backhand to the shoulder that sent her spinning through the air. Kitty slammed against her back into a tree, and crumbled to the ground.

Sabertooth advanced on the injured mutant.

"Back off, ugly!" Rogue ordered, slipping her glove off. Rogue made a lung for Sabertooth, but the larger mutant grabbed her arm, and then her other arm, not touching any bare part of her arm. He held her in front of him, extending her arms outwards so she couldn't touch him.

The sound of a motorcycle called Sabertooth's attention. A smirk played on his lips, as the feral mutant dropped Rogue to the ground.

The bushes ruffled, and out stepped another mutant.

"Lance?!" Rogue exclaimed, bewildered. The fellow Brotherhood member just nodded, and suddenly cast a worried glance toward Kitty.

"Kitty!!" Lance called urgently. The phasing mutant replied with a mumble as she tried to stand.

"Rogue, get her out of here! I'll handle this furball!"

"Lance are you crazy?!!" Rogue replied, knowing that Sabertooth could probably take on all of them.

"Just do it!!" He shouted, stretching his palms out in front of him. Rogue obliged as the ground started to shake. The untouchable Rogue ran over to the Valley Girl mutant, and helped her stand.

"We gotta move Porcupine!!" Rogue yelled toward Evan, who was already on his feet.

"This is way!!" He replied, sprinting off toward the road and snatching up his video camera on the way.

"Lance!!!" Kitty screamed as the Brotherhood leader got ready to face off against Sabertooth. Rogue dragged Kitty faster, as the ground started to crack.

Kitty screamed again as Sabertooth pounced on Lance, but then the earth broke into pieces, and the two girls were thrown to the ground, showered by chunks of earth. Evan ran back and pulled the two girls to their feet.

The trio found their way through the bushes, Kitty barely being able to be dragged along.

As they watched through the bushes, Rogue noticed a motorcycle next to Lance's jeep. Knowing Lance didn't walk on feet, it made her wonder where he had picked it up. But then Kitty thrusted a finger back at the clearing.

"Look, it's Mr. Logan!!"

Sure enough, Rogue saw a man with long claws extending from his knuckles rushing through the ruptured ground.

"Stay here!!" Rogue ordered, not expecting the two others to oblige. But she still made her way back into the clearing.

Instead of flat round, there were holes and cracks and clumps of earth. But Sabertooth suddenly flipped backwards through the air, sliding on his feet right in front of Rogue.

Now's my chance, she thought, advancing from behind.

Before Sabertooth could enter the fray again, Rogue slipped her bare hand onto the back of his neck. He stiffened, and growled in loudly.

Rogue removed her hand, and the wild mutant dropped to the ground.

But then something happened.

Rogue took the properties of Sabertooth, including the fur, claws, and long hair.

"Aw! And Ah just shaved my legs last night!" Rogue cried out, looking at herself.

"Nice. The finishing touch. You planned this didn't you Porcupine?" Logan asked as he stepped in front of Rogue. Evan and Kitty came up behind her.

"A little bit, yeah." The spiky mutant answered reluctantly.

"Well don't do it again! You could have been killed!" Logan stated angrily. But Kitty rushed past him to an injured Lance.

"Lance!!" She cried, inspecting him. Rogue felt bad for Lance, as she looked at his injuries. The Brotherhood leader had a gash along his arm, claw marks down his chest visible beneath the shreds of his black T- shirt, and claw marks along his shoulder.

Kitty softly touched his cheek.

"You have to be treated, Lance. Mr. Logan, we need to get him to the infirmary." Kitty stated exasperated. Logan nodded in agreement, and helped Lance make his way out of the clearing.

Rogue knew she had to ask about Scott now, as she trailed the others. Moving along next to Evan, she did just that.

"Is Scott okay?" She asked in a hushed tone. Evan turned to face her abruptly.

"He's in a coma. That's all I know. You'll have to talk to the Professor if you want to know more about what happened." Evan answered sadly. Rogue stopped walking and stared off in another direction.

Oh no, it's all my fault. Rogue hung her head low, and continued walking.

But off along the other side of the clearing, someone was watching her.
