Chapter 10
The Unexpected Surprise
Logan let out a roar "CREED" , but before he could attack Remy walked towards Sabretooth & Logan could hear him muttering something like "Why does this only ever happen to me",
Remy strode forward smiling slightly "Vic let him go because as much as I would love to see how this turns out, I believe you have something for me mon amie"
Sabretooth grunted tossing Scott aside "They started it, all I did was snash through the gates and bach in their door. I couldn't even get out "I come in peace"".
Remy tried hard not to laugh "next time try knocking"
Logan growled "wait one goddamned minute are you saying you invited that thing here?"
Sabretooth grinned at his Weapon-X team mate "yeah runt he did I brought him a present from Essex".
At the mention of that name, all the X-Men fell silent in shock"oops guess I forgot not to mention that part"
Creed opened the trunk of his car and pulled out a manacled Colossus tossing him on the ground. "Essex say he hopes this evens things up a little"
Gambit nodded "Tell him thanks Vic.I will contact him when this is over, but tell him our agreement still stands"
Sabretooth turned to leave "I have to say Remy, when you sold my services to Essex I had no idea what you had gotten me into, but I owe you and I will come good on it."
Remy grinned at his one time enemy "You know why and baically he was the only homme who could do it."
Sabretooth nodded"alright cajun you know where to find me when the time comes"
Sabretooth climbed back in his car and roared through the gates before the X-Men could get over their shock at what happened and stop him.
Remy bent down to look at his ex team mate Colossus "bonjour I guess I'm not the only traitor to the X-Men mon amie"
He motioned to Lycros & Drayven "take him inside"
Scott stepped forward looking outraged "What the hell do you think your doing let him go at once"
Remy sighed "Get out of our way Scott"
Scott turned to Xavier "Please Professor tell me you didn't know anything about this"
Charles Xavier sat in his hoverchair looking very uneasy about what had just happened" Trust me Scott I knew nothing of this"
Looking over at Remy Charles wondered what was going on himself "maybe you should let him go, after all he was one of us once" Remy calmly stood before the assembled X-Men noticing nearly all of them ready to attack on a word "He may have been one of YOU in the past, but now he is a prisoner with information I need"
Remy paused deciding he was going to need their help soon he came up with a compromise "however if you can get the information from him within 24 hours I will leave his fate up to you, but if you cannot then I will find a way to."
Looking at Lycros and Drayven Remy nodded telling them to let the X-Men take Colossus. He was about to follow , but two sights stopped him.Jubilee was talking hurriedly to Logan "hmmm wondered why he hadn't attacked Creed" he thought. The sight that had stopped him however was Wraith talking to Rogue his hand on her arm.
Rogue feeling Remy's gaze on her looked towards him smiling softly holding his gaze before turning back to Wraith.
Remy stood there for a moment drinking in her form "I'm not jealous" he told himself he delt nothing for her anymore and forcibly walked away feeling Rogue's gaze on his back every step.
Logan's P.O.V
He was all ready to lunge at Creed until he felt Jubilee's hand on his arm. "NO wolvie we expected him to turn up just not this soon"
Jubilee sighed seeing Logan ready to explode "He works for Gambit now he owes him his life as wel as the adamantium that now covers his skeleton".
"you can't be serious after all he's done to the cajun why would he do something so stupid" snarled Logan.
Jubilee glared back at Logan "because altho they hated each other they also respect each others skills".
Logan snorted "I still don't believe it that can't be all."
Jubilee geinned "It's not there is also the matter of the 10 million retainer that Sabretooth cannot attack any X-Man unless attacked first.Hadnt you wondered where he had been ?"
Logan looked a little taken aback "why would he do this for us after we abandoned him"
Jubilee shook her head sadly realising her friend didn't understand Remy at all"he never wanted you guys hurt and it worked so now he has an ally instead of an enemy"
Wolverine nodded starting to understand"ok I buy that,but what about Sinister what could bring him and Gambit together especially after the massacre"
Jubilee shuffled uncomfortably "None of us know the terms of that agreement except maybe Alex. We all wanted to know but we have to trust in his judgement."
Logan shook his head"after all Sinister has done to us,Gumbo can't expect the X-Men to accept this"
Jubilee looked at logan "He did warn you that there would be things you wouldn't be able to accept. I just hope the X-Men can get the info from Colossus"
Wolverine lit up a cigar "What if we can't"
Jubilee looked down very pale "trust me you don't want to know"
Logan nodded letting it go for now "lets go in darlin I want to hear what's happening"
Jubilee nodded "ok I will see you later I want to speak to Duncan"
Logan nodded seeing him just finish his coonversation with Rogue"Ok darlin I will see you inside"
Logan caught up with Rogue as she walked slowly up the steps of the mansion "Never dull with your Cajun around huh Rogue"
Rogue looked up smiling a little "not sure I ever really knew the man"
Logan nodded "A lot more to him than I ever imagined"
Rogue looked back at Wraith talking to Jubilee "Do you ever think that we put too much importance on a person's past instead of their present"
Logan smiled "you mean like Gambit"
Rogue shook her head "No not entirely, I was thinking of something Duncan said to me"
Logan still didn't like Wraith and dismissed his comment"What would a merc like him know"
Rogue sighed "Do you think we would have been treated any better than Remy if the X-Men knew all we had done?"
This caused Logan to pause "I would like to think that we would be accepted for who we are & not who we were."
"Then what makes us so different from Remy?" Whispered Rogue
Logan stopped looking thoughtful"Maybe we are not so much different after all"
Rogue sighed not sure what to think anymore"cmon sugah let's find out what's happening inside.

Leann hope this ends your suspense for another week
To all who are against Remy/Rogue I don't know if they will end up together or not. If they do I will have to make her a bit more like Raven.
