Disclaimer: Okay, still don't own X-Men and I'm defiantly not making any money off of this so no one sue. You won't get nothing but a headache. Oh, but I do own Ebony and Angelo. Yay me.
Authors Note: And the date is here! And they're seeing Underworld for two reasons. 1. I just saw it and it's fresh in my mind. 2. Rogues a Goth. Also, to everyone of my reviewers who get the WB could one of you send me a review of Cajun Spice? I only get Cartoon Network so the last new ep I saw was the second door being opened (how sad huh? I missed Rogue and Remy's kiss!) I'd really appreciate it. Please and Thank you! And now, the story continues.

Chapter 16: Movie Night
"No," Logan barked, glaring at the green eyed girl pouting before him.
"But Daddy," Rogue whined, pouting her lips out more and making the bottom one quiver slightly, her eyes opening wider. "It's just a movie and Ah wanna see it real bad. And Remy will be there to make sure nothin' happens to meh."
"Well in that case," Logan said rising and heading towards the kitchen. "Hell no."
"But Daddy!"
"No! Gumbo ain't takin' ya anywhere and that's final. Now I need a drink," Logan entered the kitchen to find Ororo and Remy talking quietly at the table. They rose when he entered, Ororo opening her mouth to speak, but Logan quickly cut her off. "She ain't going Ro," he stated pulling a soda out of the fridge, wishing it was something stronger.
"Come on Mon Ami," Remy said rising and walking next to Rogue, looking innocently at Logan. "Remy have her home at a decent hour."
"Not a chance Gumbo," Logan growled taking a swig from the bottle.
"Logan, Rogue is a grown woman, quite capable of taking care of herself," Ororo said soothingly, walking up next to him and placing her hands gently on his arm. "And you know as well as I do that Remy will take good care of her."
Rogue saw Logan's resolve begin to waver and struck. "Besides, it's not lahke he can touch meh. He'll pass out and Ah'll be blowin' half the house up and talkin' lahke a damned Swamp Rat." Rogue stated smiling sweetly at her father. She walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his free one, hugging him tightly and placing her chin on his shoulder. "Please."
"Fine," Logan growled, knowing the two women had him beat. "Be home by ten. And hands to yourself Gumbo," Logan shot a glare over at the grinning Cajun. "Or else," he added, his claws shooting out with a loud SNIKT for effect.
"Thank ya Daddy!" Rogue kissed his cheek and turned to Remy. "Let's go. Ah wanna get a good seat," she stopped before passing Ororo and gave the Weather Witch a somewhat awkward hug, making sure no skin touched. "Thank ya sugah."
"Any time child," Ororo smiled and returned the hug. "Have a good time."
"Merci Stormy," Remy added as Rogue dragged him out the door and towards the garage by his hand.
Logan watched them go and turned to glare at Ororo. "I hope you're happy darlin," he growled as he leaned against the counter.
"You are going to have to let her live her life Logan," Ororo turned to him, meeting his glare. "If you do not, you will just push her away."
Logan sighed and let his head fall forward, his chin resting on his chest. "This being a dad shit is all new to me Ro."
"Not as new as you believe Logan," Ororo replied stepping up to him and placing her hands on his chest, forcing him to look at her. "You are like a father to all of these children. You protect and teach them. And you care about and for them. Rogue just makes it more real for you…"
"Because she's mine," Logan finished for her as he wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her closer. "Well, what are we gonna do tonight darlin?" he raised his eyebrow suggestively at her.
"Oh I am sure we will think of something," Ororo replied grabbing his hand and leading him out of the kitchen and towards the stairs.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Meanwhile…
"Wanda, I said I'm sorry, what more do you want?" Evan pleaded with the young Goth before him.
"A little respect would be nice," Wanda barked, glaring at him dangerously. "You think that just because I'm a woman I can't take care of myself!" Around her, things began to shake violently as she involuntarily began to hex whatever was near her.
"Wow, easy there girl. Where'd you ever get an idea like that?" Evan backed up slightly, holding up his hands in a submitting gesture. They were standing in the middle of the Library and books began to come from their shelves. "Of course I respect you. I wouldn't even have asked you out if I didn't. It just scared me when I saw that boulder going towards you."
"I am perfectly capable of protecting myself," Wanda stated, her anger subsiding ever so slightly.
"I know that, but I didn't think," Evan lowered his hands and took a step cautiously towards her. "I really am sorry."
Wanda released a sigh as the objects of the room began to settle. "I know. It's not you're fault you're clueless. You're whole gender's that way," she walked over and hugged him. "But try to think next time."
He let out a silent sigh and hugged her back. "Done. Now come on, I wanna show you this really cool move I've been practicing."
Wanda rolled her eyes and let him lead her outside.

Jubilee sat curled up on the couch, popping her gum as she flipped through the channels in an old pair of gray sweats and a yellow t-shirt.
"You look beautiful," Piotr said placing a daisy in front of her.
Jubilee glared up at him before accepting the flower. "Thanks."
"Forgive me?" He asked sitting next to her.
"Duh," she smiled at him and launched herself into his arms. "You know I can't say no to my brave knight. Just don't think I can't take care of myself okay?"
"Da."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"That movie was so great!" Rogue exclaimed as her and Remy exited the theatre. "Especially Selene. Ah loved her jacket. Oh, and when she jumped off the buildings."
"Remy agree, de movie was tres bon," Remy replied wrapping his arm around her shoulders. "Especially de ending. Remy didn't think de fille had it in her since she seemed to love dat Vicktor so much."
"Yeah, and did ya see Toad sittin' down in the front with that cheerleader?" Rogue added as they watched the unlikely couple walk a few steps ahead of them.
"Oui, and Remy must say, de frog has good taste," he said as he pulled out a cigarette and lit it with his finger.
"Ya know ya ain't supposed to smoke Swamp Rat," Rogue said indifferently as she snuggled closer, jabbing him in the ribs for the cheerleader comment.
"Y' want Remy to quit Chere?" Remy asked taking a drag and blowing the smoke into the air.
"Not really," Rogue sighed and looked down at her gloves, pulling on the fingers. "Ah lahke the way it smells. Always have," she smiled up at him, not watching where she was going. She felt her shoulder come into contact with someone. "Oh, sorry," Rogue said turning to meet a pair of emerald green eyes as bright as her own.
"It's alright kido," the woman said, smiling at her, shaking her head slightly.
"Come chere," Remy said leading Rogue away. "We still have another hour." Remy took Rogues hand in his and kissed it.
Rogue smiled at him and stole another glance and the black haired, green eyed woman before letting Remy lead her out towards the parking lot.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Meranda? Earth to Meranda! What's up?" Angelo Garcia waved his hand before Meranda Davidson's face.
"Huh?" Meranda tore her green eyes away from the green eyed girl. "Oh, it's nothing. I just thought I knew her or something. And since when do you address me like that Private?" Meranda replied smiling, throwing her drink into the trashcan and flipping her long raven black hair over her shoulder.
"Sorry Sergeant. I'd think you would remember hair like that wouldn't you?" Angelo joked as the two made their way out the door.
"Yeah," Meranda replied as something seemed to pull at her mind. They walked silently towards their vehicle. They both walked with a military gait, brought on by years of training. Suddenly a loud noise and a girls scream drew them towards the alley. "Come on," she broke into a run and headed towards the back of the building.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Remy said back off homme," Remy growled as he grabbed the cards from his trench coat as Duncan and six of his buddies surrounded them. They had managed to sneak up on him and Rogue as they had been walking towards his bike. One of them had even had the audacity to push Rogue towards the wall. She let out a scream as she fell. He held out his hand to her and pulled her to her feet.
"You gonna make us redneck?" Duncan said as he looked towards Rogue. "Besides, no one makes a fool out of me. Not even Goths with no social skills."
"It ain't mah fault you're unlahkable," Rogue replied releasing Remy's hand and popping her knuckles. "If ya wanna try to teach meh anything, try!"
"Yes, please do," a silky voice cut through the alley. The group all spun to find Meranda and Angelo standing at the mouth of the alley. "I'd love to show you boys what a real fight is like," Meranda smiled at them and crossed her arms over her chest.
"What's going on here guys?" Angelo added taking a step into the alley.
"Nothing," Duncan spoke up. "They started it. They're mutants," he added as if that would save him from any kind of persecution.
Angelo let out a low whistle and crammed his hands into his pockets. "You walked into this one buddy," he said as he backed away.
"You have a thing against mutants sugar?" Meranda asked cracking her knuckles.
"Well, yeah," one of the guys said as if it were the dumbest question he'd ever heard.
"Then boy do I have an eye opener for you," Meranda smiled at them as her eyes went completely black, and the shadows along the wall began to grow.
"Merde," Remy breathed when even he had trouble seeing. "Rogue, y' a'right chere?"
"Oh mah gawd," Rogue breathed as memories came flowing back into her mind.
~Flashback~
"I miss daddy," Rogue said with a pout.
"I know sugar," she said kissing Rogue again. "Do you want mommy to make it dark still?"
"Yeah!" Rogue exclaimed clapping her arms together and watching her mothers eyes go from green to solid black as the shadows around the room grew and engulfed it in total blackness.
~End Flashback~
"Chere, what is it?" Remy asked, finding Rogue in the darkness and pulling her to him.
"Ah know her," Rogue said, staring towards the space Meranda had been in, but somehow knowing the woman was no longer there.
"Who is she, chere?"
"Mah mom."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Meranda moved fast around the group knocking all the boys to the ground before bringing back the lights. "Now, see why it's not nice to hate others? You end up being the one who gets hurt." The boys looked up at her in terror as her eyes began to change from black to red and her hands began to glow. "Now go!"
The boys jumped up and ran off towards the alley.
Meranda smirked as her eyes returned to normal and the glowing in her hands subsided.
"Nice job Ebony, didn't know you had it in you," Angelo spoke up, pushing himself off the wall.
Meranda just smiled at the man and turned towards the two teens. "You guys alright?" she stopped when she looked into the girls green eyes again. Despite the heavy make-up and gothic attire, something about this girl was so familiar. Then she looked harder, at the eyes. The same eyes Meranda stared into every morning when she looked in the mirror. Her breath caught in her throat as a flood of memories came pouring back into her mind. Tears clouded her eyes as she held her arms open to the girl. "Hey baby girl, long time no see."
"Mamma," Rogue said cautiously, before running into the woman's arms.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Magneto slid open the metal door before him and entered the large room to find Sabertooth crawling to his knees.
"What happened?" the Master of Magnetism asked testily as the other man rose before him.
"She got away," Sabertooth growled.
"Must I do everything for you?" Magneto asked as he left the room, slamming the door behind him, leaving Creed to find his own way out.
Authors Note: And look whose back! And is it just me or does everyone in that family end up with amnesia? I mean, Rogue, Logan and now Meranda too? Damn. Well, all will be explained as to why Rogue's mom isn't dead. It all has to do with how I designed her character for other stories. I also have plans to…well, I'll just let y'all wait in suspense. Actually, it's cause I'm tired and have to get this up. Now to the shout outs.
Invader ZaiFae ~ Thanks for your understanding. Whenever I rush through a chapter, I feel like it sucks so I try not to do that. And I'm so glad I'm not the only one who would be melting under the Cajun's charms. I wish I could see Cajun Spice but as you can see by my first AN, I don't get the WB. Damn Direct TV! Please let me know how the ep is. I must know! Thanks again for the review.
Danfred ~ I'm just glad I was able to explain it to ya. And you're questions weren't annoying. They made me re-read what I'd written and re-analyze my work, so I appreciate that.
Rose ~ I'm glad you love my story. And I agree Romy is the best. I love fluff. I used Magneto cause Wanda joined the X-Men which I'm sure would piss him off. Especially since it's his daughter and all that. And cause Mystique just screwed up royally. I still haven't heard that song yet. I'll have to find it online somewhere. Thanks for the review.
Ishandahalf ~ Sorry wasn't the uberfluff I know you wanted, but fluff was there. I had to get this idea set up though. Just wait though. You will love where this leads. Trust me.
cool-chick-rae ~ I hate when that happens and you're sitting through a lecture going "god what did they write! It's gotta be better than this!" I hope it was worth the wait though. And I hope this one doesn't disappoint. I'm not sure who you mean by the whole "There should be some uneasyness like they get paranoid that each is out to steal the others bf/gf ya know everyone at the others throats" though. If you could clarify, I'd appreciate it. Cause we all know no one's going to try to steal Remy or Rogue from each other. No one in my story has THAT much of a death wish. But the other couples…Anyway, I'll just wait till you clarify. Hope you liked this chapter.
Kendarath ~ So you're the one with the mallet huh? Cool, now I know who to go to. LOL. Thanks for the review. I don't think we need to worry about writers block for awhile cause inspiration has struck and now it's just finding the time to get the chapters up. Hey, you got a mallet for college classes and exams? Cause, wouldn't mind one of those.
Rogue77 ~ As promised, Toad has a chick. And a cheerleader no less. As for Mystique, I have even bigger plans for torturing her than just Creed, so it'll just have to wait. But she will pay. Now since I updated, you should too cause I wanna know what Remy does to that dumbass who was impersonating him.
Mercury Dream ~ I almost cried when I read your review. You are just too sweet and I can't say that enough. If you ever asked me I'd tell you my writing was nothing but pure crap and for the longest time that's why nothing I ever wrote was published like this. I was too scared that someone would agree with me I guess. You are truly wonderful and kind. And in my opinion, your stuff is way better than mine. But we're all our own worst critics right? Oh and everyone should read All Grown Up too. I'm loving that story so much. It's just so cute and I love how Scott is being portrayed. Thanks again for the review. It meant a lot to me.
AngieX ~ Yeah, they have forgiven them. And like Wanda said, it's not Evan's fault he's clueless. It's his gender. Thanks as always for the review.
Denial ~ You are a shameless villain supporter there aren't you? It's okay. She got out. Like a shape shifter couldn't though. She'd just have to transform into a mouse or something. But anyway, there will be more Mystique later, fear not. Although, you may not like all of what happens to her. So I updated so feel free to review now.
Yumiko ~ No naked Remy yet, but soon. I'm feeling evil so you must wait! (But remember, as long as you have to wait, so do I so, I doubt you'll be waiting that long.) Thanks for the review. Keep 'em coming.
And to everyone else, much thanks and love go out to you all as well. Hope you liked this chapter. I'll keep them coming so long as you do the same. ::Hint Hint review button is to your left::
Authors Note: And the date is here! And they're seeing Underworld for two reasons. 1. I just saw it and it's fresh in my mind. 2. Rogues a Goth. Also, to everyone of my reviewers who get the WB could one of you send me a review of Cajun Spice? I only get Cartoon Network so the last new ep I saw was the second door being opened (how sad huh?

AngieX ~ Yeah, they have forgiven them. And like Wanda said, it's not Evan's fault he's clueless. It's his gender. Thanks as always for the review.
Denial ~ You are a shameless villain supporter there aren't you? It's okay. She got out. Like a shape shifter couldn't though. She'd just have to transform into a mouse or something. But anyway, there will be more Mystique later, fear not. Although, you may not like all of what happens to her. So I updated so feel free to review now.
Yumiko ~ No naked Remy yet, but soon. I'm feeling evil so you must wait! (But remember, as long as you have to wait, so do I so, I doubt you'll be waiting that long.) Thanks for the review. Keep 'em coming.
And to everyone else, much thanks and love go out to you all as well. Hope you liked this chapter. I'll keep them coming so long as you do the same. ::Hint Hint review button is to your left::
