And the winner is…………….

Rogue woke up as she glanced at her clock. She groaned softly seeing it was only 3:20. "Ah still got a couple of hours." She said softly as she put her arms behind her head and stared at the ceiling. It was quiet, maybe because she couldn't hear Kitty's breathing on the other side of the room. But then again she wasn't home. She sighed as she got to her feet, grabbed a robe Magneto gave to her, and left her room. Her feet froze against the cold metal floor. She wished she had her socks on or at least some slippers. She glanced in the kitchen not seeing any one as she went to get a glass of water.

"Having problems sleeping?" A voice from the darkness of the next room asked.

Rogue glanced over grabbing her glass and walked slowly into the living room where a face came into view. "What are ya doin` op?"

"The same thing you are. Can't sleep." Piotr said turning the miny lamp back on.

She nodded as she took a seat next to him on the couch,. She looked down at the table and noticed some drawings. "Ya did these?"

"Yes, their not very good."

Rogue picked one up and examined it. It was a drawing of Bayville school. "It's very good. Ah could never get the lightin` rahght every tahme ah tried ta draw tha school."

"You draw?" He asked his thick heavy accent showing.

Rogue nodded. "Well ah doodle. Nothing` lahke these." She said coming across a picture of a girl, she looked about fourteen maybe fifteen and pretty. "This yer girlfriend?"

Piotr glanced at the drawing. "My sister."

"She's pretty."

"Illyana was not happy when I left."

"Why did ya leave?"

"I did not have a choice.

"Everyone has a choice."

"Not me. It was either go or… I've said too much already." Piotr said gently taking his drawings back and gathered them into a pile and stood up. "You should go back to bed."

"Do ya ever write her?"

"No."

"Ya should. Even if it's just short, ya know let her know yer okay an` that." Rogue said standing as well. "If as was yer sister ah'd be getting` worried bah now."

Piotr watched as Rogue put her empty glass into the dishwasher and made her way back to her room. He didn't dare move until he heard the sound of her door close. He sighed heavily. Magneto had enough information on Remy, John, and himself to keep them there for the rest of their lives. But he knew one thing. Rogue was right. He needed to let Illyana know he was all right.

*****************************

Magneto paced in his room staring out of the dark window seeing nothing but a brick wall. His plans were nearly finished and nearly flawless. He would teach humans to never taunt mutants again and instead fear them. Using Rogue he can pick a random person and make this come true. E felt a small twinge of sadness for the child, but it quickly passed. He picked up the photo of a girl about eighteen years of age. Having blonde hair and bright blue eyes. "Tomorrow you die." He said chuckling.

Okay decided to make Rogue's powers more interesting and bring in *drum roll* Miss Marvel! Carol Danvers.

Pietro! *ducks from miscellaneous objects being thrown* the reviewers picked not me! But I promise the votes were totally close.

If anyone wants I will make a story with Romy, Ryro, or Piotr/Rogue. Just review a plot for the story J or e-mail me roguexmenevolution@yahoo.com
