Chapter—5 What the hll?
Rouge's eyes crack open, and she looks around her. She is laying in a small bed, that is pressed against the wall of a nearly barren windowless room. Standing over her a pale woman, her shoulder length silver hair framing her face.
"Wake up son, you haven't forgotten what today is have you?" asks the woman, a smile crosses her face, showing a pair of elongated teeth.
"No Mommy, today is my birthday!" responds a young tired voice of a boy, after a moment Rouge realizes it is her.
"Well as soon as you are dressed you want to come out and open your presents?" asks the woman, a knowing smile on her face.
"Ok, Mommy," answers Rouge, the woman leaves the room, and a few minutes later so does Rouge.
"There's my little man," calls a middle aged man, his short cut hair graying slightly, from a wooden chair across the room.
"Daddy," squeals Rouge as she runs over to the man.
"Did you have a good nap son?" inquires the man as he takes Rouge into his arms.
"Yes, can I open my presents now Daddy?" asks Rouge
"Only if you can tell me how old you are today," inquires the man as he puts Rouge on the ground.
"Um...six," answers Rouge.
"That's my boy, ok you can open your presents," the man points to a small pile of presents that are piled near a sofa.
Suddenly a loud boom is heard and part of the wall is suddenly torn apart, the night sky clearly visible. Two robed figures step into the room.
"I demand to know what are you doing in my house?" bellows the man, standing from his chair.
"We have come to kill the hybrid and his parents," a deep yet soft voice answers from one of the cloaked figures.
"Daddy who are those people?" asks Rouge.
The woman from before appears next to Rouge, "Don't question, go into your room and don't come out till I get you ok?" the woman's voice is frightened, yet forceful.
Rouge goes back into the room she had been in originally, as soon as the door is closed, muffled sounds could be heard from the other side. As Rouge moves away from the door, the door is ripped from it's hinges and an arm wraps around Rouge's neck. The person holding Rouge lifts her into the air and carries her into the other room. The man and woman are being pinned to the floor by one of the cloaked figures.
"Mommy, Daddy," Screams Rouge.
"Well now that all three of you are here, we can finish our job and get paid," says the robed person holding the man and woman. Pulling a sword from the inside of his robe he presses it against the back of the woman's neck, causing the woman to begin to weep. Lifting the sword he brings the sword down severing the woman's head.
"Mommy!" weeps Rouge, as she reaches up trying to free herself from the arm holding her.
"Son, listen to me your mother and I shall always love you," Croaks the man as the sword comes down on his neck as well.
"Daddy!" Wails Rouge. Suddenly a pain shoots through her arms, and the figure holding her releases her. Looking at her arms she sees a that a single blade has sprung from each wrist, and that one of them is bloody. Turning she sees that the blade had knocked the hood off of the figure and pierced the man's eye, and skull.
"What the..." is all the other figure manages to cry when a sword cleaves his head from his shoulders.
Rouge runs to the two decapitated bodies, crying. "Mommy, Daddy," She wails, tears now fall in a steady stream. Turning she looks at the person standing over her, the sword in the person's hand dripping with blood. "Why?" is all Rouge manages to croak, between sobs.
The person removes the hood to reveal a crimson haired woman, kneeling down, the woman looks into Rouge's eyes, "I could tell you but you wouldn't understand now. Come with me, I shall protect you." With that the woman takes Rouge's hand and begins to pull her from the blood soaked room.
"What is your name?" asks Rouge, wiping away the last of her tears.
The simple question causes the woman to stop, looking down at Rouge, she replies, "Psy, what is your name?"
"Cobal," answers Rouge.
The two continue to walk from the room.
Dr. McCoy is sitting in his office in the Med Bay, when suddenly a thunderous crash causes him to jump to his feet knocking the chair he was sitting in to fall down.
"TOO MUCH PAIN, OH THE PAIN," screams a pained voice from a room, down the hall.
"Professor, I think you and Logan should come down here," yells Dr. McCoy, into and intercom, trying to be heard over the sound of the pained screaming. Then Dr. McCoy runs down the hall just in time to see Psy get thrown through a closed, heavy metal door.
"oh, man that is going to leave a mark," mutters Psy as she gets back up and charges back into the room.
Dr. McCoy pokes his head around the door frame to see, Psy is trying to hold Cobal down on a bed, and dodge both of Cobal's blades. Cobal is clutching his head and withering in pain, his brow gleaming with sweat.
"Hey what is going on in here?" demands Logan, coming down the hall way stopping next to Hank.
"It would appear that our two new students are awake," answers Hank stating the obvious.
Dr. McCoy, and Logan go into the room and help force Cobal to lay still, but Logan gets thrown into a wall. Removing his belt Logan grabs both of Cobal's ankles and tightens the belt around them, and forces Cobal's legs still.
"What is going on here!!" Bellows the Professor, just barely being heard over Cobal's pained screaming.
Dr. McCoy takes hold of Cobal's arms and pull him flat so that Cobal is being stretched and can't move as much as he could have. Psy grabs a pillow from an empty bed and covers Cobal's mouth with it muffling the screams.
"Professor, something is trying to form a bond with his mind, and it is causing his mind to overload. And no before you ask I don't know why it is happening, and I don't know why it isn't affecting me," huffs Psy trying to regain some of her lost breath.
Wheeling over Xavier touches both of Cobal's temples and closes his eyes. Almost instantly his eyes, snap open and he looks at Psy, "The connection, between you and Cobal, is weakening, and a second bond is forming, with who I don't know, I assume Rouge but I can't be sure."
Looking down at Cobal, a tear rolls down Psy's face, "can you sever his tie with me?" is all Psy asks, as she draws a ragged breath.
"I might but why do you want that to happen?" questions the Professor, a shocked look on his face.
"I have lived for far too long, I have seen and done things that you would be sickened by. Cobal doesn't have the luxury of choosing which of my memories are shown to him, they are constantly forcing themselves into his mind, he shouldn't have to deal with that." Answers Psy, more tears stream from her eyes.
"Alright Psy I will see if I can completely sever your tie with him," wheeling up behind Psy the professor, touches her temples, and closes his eyes. After a moment Cobal stops struggling and a soft groan escapes from under the pillow, both Logan and Dr. McCoy release his arms and legs.
"Thank you, Professor," whispers Psy, as Xavier removes his hands from her temples.
"Don't thank me I didn't do anything," answers Professor Xavier.
Suddenly another scream pierces the quiet; everyone spins and looks at Rogue. Rogue is laying in the far bed, arching her back, her arms flailing. Without warning her body snaps into a fetal position, the force used in the movement, causing her to fall from the bed.
Behind everyone Cobal begins to wake, reaching up he grabs the pillow from on top of his head and throws it, unknowingly hitting Logan in the head. "Psy, no more chugging Everclear before bed, ok?" asks the very bleary eyed vampire.
While everyone else goes to check on Rouge, Psy steps up next to Cobal's bed and slaps him hard across the cheek, "Wake up, right now."
Cobal begins to yawn, but stops one eye brow raises up, looking up at Psy, "Wait a minute, why are you talking to me?" asks Cobal the last bits of tiredness falling from his mind.
"Well you know that is how most people who are no longer mentally connected communicate," responds Psy, a smile crossing her face.
After a moment Cobal jumps out of bed and grabs hold of Psy round the waist and begins to dance around, laughing all the way.
"Oh, my Lord!" exclaims Dr. McCoy, as he, Logan and the Professor, move away from were Rouge fell. Cobal stops swinging Psy around and moves to peer over the table.
What was once Rouge stands up and looks Cobal, straight in the eyes. Her shoulder length hair has grown down to her waist, her eyes had changed and now had a serpent like appearance, and her skin tone has lightened somewhat. Without so much as a warning Rouge punches Cobal in the face causing him, to fly backwards into the far wall. "What's happened to me?" asks Rouge, suddenly perplexed at what she just did.
"I bet I know," responds Psy, "but first I think you, Cobal, and I need to discuss some things in privet. Professor if you will excuse us," with a slight bow Psy leads Rouge, out of the room, and across the hall. After Cobal, picks himself up he also follows.
"Am I the only one that is confused?" asks Logan
"My friend I think it is a safe bet that we are all confused at this point," responds Hank, as he watches the teens walk down the hall.
Ok I know that Psy is not a teen but she appears to be so don't get on my case. So any way, plz R&R my strange and confusing story, I will hopefully be able to get every thing explained in at least two more chapters. Anyway R&R plz!!!
