She Sighed – Chapter 7
Remy picked up a potted plant and threw it directly at Sinister's chest. The clay pot smashed and showered his target with moist soil and a red geranium. By the time he reached Sinister, his staff was drawn and he brought it down powerfully. His attack was stopped short when Sinister reached out, caught the staff, and flung Remy to the ground. Hands firmly placed on the grass, he lashed out with his left foot and took Sinister's legs out from under him as he deftly leapt off the ground and flipped backwards; out of the way of Rogue's attack.
She charged at him with the raw power of an enraged bull, drew her fist back and hit him square in the face as he toppled from Remy's sweep. She managed to get three of four punches in before Sinister began laughing at her.
Taken aback, she paused momentarily. Remy slammed into her, hard, as Sabertooth hurled him through the air at her. They landed in an undignified heap together nearly a foot away from Sinister. He stood and calmly dusted himself off, still smiling at their vain attempt at a coordinated assault.
"Get them." He commanded Sabertooth. Turning his back to them, he walked away leaving Sabertooth to his own devices.
Winded, Rogue pushed herself up onto her hands and knees and looked at Remy. He was already standing on his feet, his fists clenched tightly. "Perfect", she angrily voiced. "You take Sabertooth, Ah'm goin' after Sinister!"
"What?!!" Remy exclaimed. "No!" Fear for his love's safety crept into his voice but by the time he turned to look at her she was already running after Sinister and Sabertooth was running towards him. An angry sigh forced it's way past his lips as he sidestepped and tripped Sabertooth. He delivered a back-kick to Sabertooth's head for good measure and ran after Rogue, leaving Sabertooth to lay prostate on the lawn unconscious.
