Chapter 15: A Fallen Thief
'''' ' ' ' ' ''"
Remy woke up the next morning. At first he thought it was just a bad dream, but he didn't wake up in his own bed, and Rogue wasn't beside him. He got up and furiously growl. Afterward, he quickly and carefully made his way home. Being very careful, there's properly many Assassian spies out.
When he got home, Mercy and Mattie were in the living room, "So what did yo' an' Rogue do last night?"
"Must b' somethin' special t'keep dem out all night, non?" Mercy teased.
But the look on Remy face mafe bthem stop joking, Etienne entered, "wha's wrong Remy? and where's Rogue?"
"Julien got her," he replied as he stomped inside. Everyone there looks stunned.
"He WHAT?" Everyone there asked.
"Appearently de homme has some sorta device t'deactiviate Rogue's power, an' a new an' blonde." Remy replied.
"So, wha' do we do now?" Lapin asked as he enter the room with Henri, Jean-Luc, and Theo.
"I say we get her back." Remy said, "and gather some of the other guild members, we may need it."
"Okay, I'll get Gris Gris." Lapin said and ran off to look for the man he used to pick on when they were kids.
"I'll go get Zeo Ishihara." Mercy said and left.
"And we'll go search for the rest." Etienne and Theo said.
"Don't worry ma son, we'll fine her." Jean Luc said, his hand resting on Remy's shoulder for support. "An' when we do, yo' can do anyt'ing wit' dat crazy homme."
Remy anger soften, "merci pere."
" ' ' ' "
Rogue woken, she looks around the room, it's nice, if you like pink paint mix with machogany walls. Rogue gave a look of disguested. She could feel that she's being watched. There, in corner was a small camera. She glared at it for five minutes, knowing that will do nothing, she sighted.
Remy, where are ya? Rogue's asked herself. She took a look at her left hand, "stupid bracelet, why weren't there one when Ah need one," she bitterly muttered. Then an idea hit her... She could properly call the Professor, Jean or Tessa. Here goes nothin'... Professor! No answer, Jean? Tessa??
"Now now, callin' yo' friends won't work petite fille." Came a voice out of nowhere and it scared the crapped out of her. "Mon maison is protected from telepathic cries f'r help. Dat means no brainwave are allowed in or out."
"Who are ya an' how do ya kno' all this?" Rogue growled.
"Aww, yo'd forgotten moi already Rogue?" The voice asked in amusement.
"ANSWER ME!"
"Temper, temper, dat must be why Gambit likes yo'."
Rogue glare at the camera, knowing whoever is talking to her is watching her as well.
"'M Julien Boudreaux, don' yo' remember wha' happened last nuit?" He asked.
Rogue thought back to the night before, the figure was Julien! Rogue was out before she could fine out who it was, somebody hitted her on the neck. She rubbed it, it still hurts.
"I see dat yo' remember. Bon. 'M goin' t'sent Ronni t'get yo' dressed up." Julien said.
"Ah don' need somebody ta dress me up, Ah can do it mahself!" Rogue stated, but no replies.
She could hear someone coming, just then the door open halfway. A blond woman entered, she has a body figure which are perfect for models. No wonder that ass like her. A woman like her, Rogue can easily beat, even without her power. If only she wasn't chained onto the bed. She glare at the blond.
"Hi, I'm Ronnie Lake and I'm here to help you get dress--" Ronnie started.
"Ah don't need yah assisstance. Ah can dress mahself!" Rogue glared.
"But can you do it when your all chained up?" Ronnie asked. Rogue said nothing, but Ronnie's voice seem to to change when she said the last four words. Somewhat familiar, a voice in which she haven't heard for over 5 years...
"Who are yah really?" Rogue asked, pointing her finger at the woman. "Don't tell meh tha' yah-" (Heheh)
" ' ' ' "
"Genard Alouette, yo' will lead Theo, Questa and Singer an' seach the south side o' de French Headquarter. Henri, take Gris Gris, Lapin, and Zeo and seach the north." Remy ordered, Genard and Henri nodded their head, "De rest o' yo' will come wit' Remy."
"Good luck Remy." Mercy said after they left. "An' bring Rogue bac'."
Etienne, Jean-Luc, and his friend, Hercule were tagging along with Remy. They were busting into every penhouses and mansions that was owned by Julien. But they found nothing. They properly didn't take her to the champer where they kept Jean-Luc, because Rogue and Remy had destroyed it.
Den again... Remy thought, Julien wan' himself t'b' found by moi. He better non lay a hand on ma chere. His eyes were glowing. Etienne look at his cousin.
"Remy, are yo' alright?" Etienne asked, "yo' glowin'."
Remy shook his head, "Oui, Remy will b' alright an' he t'inks he kno' where Julien took Roguey."
"Where did Julien took your girlfriend then?" The dark skinned man known as Hercule asked.
"Pere, yo' kno' remember where Julien took yo'?" Jean-Luc nodded, "he took her dere. So inform de others."
" ' ' ' "
"Who are yah really?" Rogue asked, pointing her finger at the woman. "Don't tell meh tha' yah Mystique..."
Ronnie was facing Rogue. She look at the camera and took out a plasma gun then shot it. Her eyes glowed yellow for a split second, "righ you are, my daughter."
Rogue glare at her, "don't call me tha' if ya want ta ruin mah life again! Why are ya wit' this loser anyway?"
"Destiny told me to come here." was her answer.
"Why?" Rogue asked, "why did Irene told ya ta come here?"
"To save your life, and your boyfriend's life, along with his families and friends." Mystique replied.
"Ya mean tha nutcase is tha' powerful?" Rogue asked in disbelief.
Mystique nodded. "At least that's what Irene told me. So I decided to go under one of my alias, Ronnie Lake, I was very famous in that body, everyone loved me, I got all the attention, and I knew Julien won't turn anyone like Ronnie down. The pervert."
Rogue raised an eyebrow at the last comment, she felt like laughing, but this is no laughing matter. "What should we do now?" She asked, feeling unease asking her mother for help. Is this another trap? Irene did sent her, and Irene told her she and Mystique will reunite soon.
Just then, the door was smashed down. "Ronnie, why did you do that?"
"Shut up Julien, this beauty isn't your beauty." Ronnie said, then, she turn into Mystique.
Julien was taken aback with the transformation, his model was a monster! Then again, he look like a beast with the black suit and mask.
Mystique took out the remote that would free Rogue from the stupid bracelet, she pressed the button. Nothing happened. She look at Julien. He smirked, "trust don't come t' moi dat easily, ever since LeBeau killed--" "Shut up, Remy didn't kill anyone." Rogue growled. Still chained to the bed. Mystique look at Rogue and mentally slapped herself, why didn't she freed Rogue before the nutcase came? "You call blowin' her up not killin' her?" Julien questioned. "It wasn't his fault, she was makin' a move on him, he didn' wanted ta have a relationship wit' her. Once day, she was all over him, when she tried t'put the move on him, he got nervous, that's when his power manifested! He didn't meant ta kill her!!" Rogue stated, even if Remy haven't told her that part, she would still know, because she got his memories.
"Remy LeBeau... nervous? What do yo' think I am? Stupid?" He asked, too close to her face.
"Get away from her you ass." Mystique warned, her plasma gun again his head.
"Or wha' ugly? Yo'll shoot moi? T'ink again," he said, bringing up some sorta remote. "When I press dis button, the whole place will blow up, KABOOM, we all die!"
Mystique glare at him, "and you're crazy enought to do it."
Julien smirked gave her a smirk. Then came a bang on the wall. Remy, along with Etienne, Jean-Luc, and Hercule entered. "Don' even t'ink 'bout it Julien." Remy said in a low and dangeriously tone.
"Remy!" Rogue shout. trying to struggle free, but failing miserbly.
Remy glance toward her direction, he saw Mystique, "Mystique, wha' d' yo' wan' wit' Roguey?"
"Helping you out." She replied in annoyance,
"Stop igorring me LeBeau!" Julien shout. He snapped his fingers, all of a sudden men with rippers and wearing dark uniform entered. "Let's fight."
"Now yo' talkin' mon language." Etienne said as he pulled out a sword Zoe gave him for his birthday, three years ago. "Never t'ough I would b' able t'use dis belle."
Jean-Luc rolled his eyes, his family must be on something. "C'mon, le's kick some Assassins asses," he declared.
Hercule took out his bazuka and start blasting the Assassins, Etienne was using his sword, and Jean-Luc is having fun with a very small and very sharp knife.
"How stupid are t'ose people?" Julien insulted Remy's families and friends.
"Who say dey are stupid?" Remy asked, pointing to see half of his Assassins that were down.
Julien grinned, he snapped his fingers again, more people came, this time, it's not more Assassians. It's a group Remy is very familiar with. His eyes widen, "Dat's right Gambit, de Hands."
"The Hands?" Everyone, beside Remy, Julien, and the remainding Assassians asked.
"Oui," Remy answered, "Remy and Wolverine faced dem when we were in Japan."
"An' yo' kno' dat yo' won't win wit'out dat homme. I shall stab yo' in de heart an' let yo' watch yo' fille die, den yo' shall follow her down t'hell. Yo' don' deserve t'live Remy, neither should yo' amis an' famillies."
Mystique was fighting the Hands with the Thieves, and they are losing. "Watch it human," Mystique pushed Jean-Luc away just as he was about to get stabbed by a Hand member.
"Merci, Raven." Jean-Luc said with a grin.
Etienne was fighting beside Hercule, they were both very busy. Etienne swung his sword around, blocking the bullets that the Assassians were shooting at them. The fight went on longer, Etienne was growing weak, so was Hercule. Both fell to their knees, The Hands and the Assassans circled them...
"Don't even lay a hand on mon brother." Came a voice from behind. They all turn around to see a gang of Theives. Theo was talking. The Thieves charged toward the Assassians and the Hands.
Remy took out a few cards, he charged them up, "it won't work on me LeBeau, ma uniforn protect moi from yo' explosions."
"We'll see 'bout dat." Remy replied and threw the cards at Julien's face, but it only pushed him back a few feet, nothing happened to him. Remy gasp and Julien laughed.
"Yo' won' destroy ma face dis time LeBeau, like I told yo', the suit protect moi." Julien grinned and pulled out a staff. He quickly made his way toward Rogue, Cut off the chain and pull her off the bed.
Great, now nuthead got me, why have no one released me yet? Rogue sarcastically asked herself. Ah'm seriously gon' kill this guy if Remy doesn'... why am Ah talkin' ta mahself?
Julien pulled her out of the room, no one beside Remy, Mystique, Etienne, and Jean-Luc saw her. Mystique had her hands full. She decide she had enought and slaughter all her enemies with one blow, then she followed her daughter. Jean-Luc and Etienne saw her leaving and did the same.
Julien forced Rogue all the way up to the roof, Remy growled all the way. He couldn't throw his charged cards at Julien, because it would harm Rogue, who is unable to use her power because of that damn bracelet. No power means no healing factors.
Remy lay a foot on the roof, already, he felt like someone else was here, beside the two that is already on the roof and the three that are following him. "Julien, let Rogue go, is me dat yo' wan'."
"Remy LeBeau? not referring t'himself as a third person?" Julien asked, a bit surprised. "De Remy LeBeau I remember, never talk in a first person, nor does he get nervous."
"People change, Julien." Remy informed as calmly as he could, "even you have. De petite died mon ami, an' if yo' like, I'll take de blame f'r it. But she's gone mon ami, so move on. Dere are other filles out dere!"
"Yo' wouldn't leave dis fille if she die now will yo'?" Julien questioned, "dat was how I felt f'r Tara LaBar (Lol, I'm clueless). But yo' killed her an' ruin it all f'r moi."
"I didn't kill her on purpose!" Remy growled. "Would yo' let it go an' give moi ma Rogue bac'?"
"Non," Julien replied and dragged Rogue near the edge. "Ma plans aren't workin', so I guess I'll just throw her off."
Remy's eyes glowed. This old friend of his is getting on his nerves. Remy took a step forward, Mystique and Jean-Luc arrived. "Don't even move, or de fille goes overboard," Julien warned.
Ah'm bord, this guy is really borin'... Rogue rolled her eyes. Time fer some rogue actions, she smirked and did a low kick. Julien immediately went down. Rogue put the chain to good use by tying them around Julien's neck. She slowly tighten it. "Ah think ya misjudged me, bub." She grinned. "Ah was trainned by the best."
"Yo'... yo'... gon'... t'pay... f'r dis..." Julien struggle to say.
"Rogue!" Remy hurried over her side and gave her one big hug. "Remy miss yo' chere... Are yo' alright? Did he do anyt'ing t' yo? If he did--"
"Shut it Cajun, Ah'm fine... jus' hungry," Remy snicker and held her tighter.
"Get out of the way!" Etienne shout as he jumped in front of them. He then fell onto the ground.
"Etienne!" Rogue and Remy scream in horror.
"C'mon." He look at Mystique and Jean-Luc, "get behind somet'ing!"
"But Etienne!" Jean-Luc argue, but followed.
"I'm sure your son and my daughter are taking care of him," Mystique replied.
Rogue and Remy got behind a wall that happen to be there. "This... suck!"
"Don't leave us Etienne. You have t'live." Remy ordered his younger cousin, who was having trouble breating, "yo' always ma favorite cousin yo' kno' dat?"
Etienne slowly nodded his head, "Etienne kno'. I have t'go soon, leave Earth, take care of each other," he told Rogue and Remy. "An' tell Theo t'take care of himself."
"Yo' can't leave..." Remy repeated.
"Yah have ta stay wit' us sugah!" Rogue sat next to him.
"Nope." simply, he replied. "Here, take ma sword. Keep it, think of moi when yo' look at it."
"Remy took the sword, "but Etienne, shouldn' yo' give ds to--"
"Non, Remy, I wan' yo' t'have it." Etienne grin before he stop breathing.
Remy growl, "okay, chere. Let Remy see if he can help." He grabbed her hand, the one with the bracelet. He charged it up. Not too much, just enough so it would blow and wouldn't harm her too much.
A small kaboom was heard. It worked. "Why didn't Ah think of tha' before?"
"B'cause Remy's de one who thought o' it." He replied, which earned him a hit on the head. "Oww, wha' was dat f'r?"
"Fer bein' full of yahself, LeBeau." She answered. "Time t'avenge Etienne..."
She flew up to the sky, immediately, the bullets hit her, but bounced off. "Hey old man, long time no see," She glare at Marius Boudreaux. "Now yaer gon' pay, bub."
He looked at her as if she was stupid, then again, the bullets bounched right off of her. "Mon dier." He said and ran away.
"Tha's right sugah, run." Rogue glare became deadlier. All of a sudden, thunder could be heard, it hit the ground in front of Marius and made a big hole there, Marius fell in, along with some of his minons. She put a shield over them and something went on in there that shouldn't. But the cold thick could now be seen.
Mystique raised an eyebrow after she saw what Rogue just did, "What did you do to them Rogue?"
"I made them believe that they were enemies, so they all kill each other."
"An' dey deserve it t'." Remy replied, "f'r Etienne, who's gone to see de man in de sky."
Jean-Luc look at his son. "Etienne's dead?"
Rogue and Remy look at him, slowly, they nodded.
"Destiny didn't told me about this..." Even Mystique look depress.
"Let's go home." Remy said. By now, everyone was there, Theo heard the news and wanted to kill Remy, but it wasn't Remy's fault, if he tried to kill Remy, he'll be just like Julien. And he knows that Etienne wouldn't want that, so he blame it on Marius Boudreaux, who is dead, thanks to Rogue.
Julien jumped from behind them, about to chock him with the chain, but Remy charged a card to full power and sent it flying toward Julien. It knocked Julien fifteen feet away, knocking him off the roof.
"We mus' go bury Etienne." Theo said and Hercule picked up Etienne's lifeless body and they all left.

A/N: Hmmm, I mess up on the LeBeau family thing... Lapin is Emir's last name (Although people do call him Lapin). And Theo was suppost to be older then Etienne, Etienne's suppost to be two years younger then Remy... Awww, my head hurts... I'm not sure if I wanted this chapter to be like this... but I haven't updated in a long time, And I sorta wanted Etienne dead, not cuz I hate him (I really luv him)... Okay, please review!!
