Rock Me

Disclaimer: I don't own X-men: Evolution at all in any way, shape, or form.

Summery: Mystique never convinced Rogue to join the Brotherhood and the Professor didn't detect her. She ends up in Bayville with no place to stay, no friends, no answers, and doesn't know who to trust. She finds herself outside of a house hungry, tired, and scared. She knocks on the door and finds three guys that'll rock her world...

AN: This is my first Rogue fic so constructive criticism is allowed, but no people being plain rude.

Chapter 7

Rogue looked up from the guitar to look at the guys. She saw that they all had huge grins on their faces.

"What?" she asked.

"You're in!" they said in unison. Rogue rolled her eyes. She glanced at her watch and noticed that it was almost time to go to the X house as she called it.

"Hey, guys, we gotta go," Blake said getting Rogue's drift. The three boys filed out silently musing about their new singer.

"Do they know?" Rogue asked.

"Yeah," David admitted. "They found out almost as soon as we did. Remember when I said we couldn't control our powers? Well, they saw Blake using his one day and they guessed the truth."

"They weren't freaked out?"

"No. They think it's cool. They promised to keep our secret no matter what," Adam explained. He lead them outside and into the car. "I drive," he told David smugly.

"I don't know. Last time you drove we ended up in New York."

"Did not!"

"Close to it, but go ahead."

"Are you sure you can trust them?" Rogue asked them.

"Yeah. They've been our friends since we were little. They wouldn't turn on us." Rogue nodded even though she wasn't entirely convinced.

"Stripes," Logan said when she and the boys entered the mansion. "Today you're going to meet the newbees."

"Newbees?" Rogue questioned him raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah. Follow me." He lead the four down to the Danger Room. There Rogue saw were more mutant kids that she'd not met before.

"This," Logan said pointing to a tall, brown haired, boy. "Is Bobby or Iceman, Amara or Magma, Jubilee or Jubilation, Tabitha or Boom-Boom, and this is Jamie or Multiple."

When Rogue raised a questioning eyebrow at them. The group of five answered her unasked question.

"I can become and create ice," Bobby said.

"I can create balls of energy that explode," said Tabitha.

"I can create and control fire," Amara told her.

"I create fireworks and explosions," Jubilee explained simply.

"If I'm bumped or jolted I create clones of myself," said Jamie shyly and Rogue was given the distinct impression that he was very self-conscious and ashamed of his powers. "I try not to have too much human contact without being prepared."

"Same heah," Rogue felt forced to admit. For some reason she felt obligated to make the small boy feel better. "But yours is a cool power. Ah mean, Ah wouldn't mind having ten o' ya runnin' 'round me." She smiled at Jamie and he blushed in response.

"Quit flirting with the copycat and lets get to training," Logan said. "Go suit up; the others are waiting." Rogue had the distinct need to stick her tongue out at the tough guy...so she did. He glared at her and she glared back much to the amusement of everyone present.

After hours of intense training with both of the X-men teams (the newbees and the 'originals') Rogue and the guys were ready to go home and crash when an alarm went off.

"Attention students," Professor Xaviers' voice took over the school. "We are being attacked by the Brotherhood and the Acolytes. I want all the new X-men in the Danger Room to handle this one with the regular team. Everyone else to your rooms and wait for further instruction."

Rogue blanched. She wasn't sure if she could handle a fight. A real fight between mutants. It seemed wrong to be against each other when they shared a common gift. Blake, Adam, and David watched Rogue's reaction.

"Can you handle this?" David asked concerned.

"Ah gotta sometime," Rogue answered with a careless shrug. "Might as well be now."

When Rogue and the others got outside the two teams were lined up and waiting for them with one person Rogue recognized.

"Mystique," she said aloud. Mystique saw her and grinned.

"I've come for you," Mystique admitted. "It's taken me a while to find you, but I knew you'd end up here with the Brady Bunch sooner or later. Come with us." Mystique held out her hand. "And no one will be hurt."

"Don't do it, Stripes," Logan said. "She's lying." Rogue felt confused.

'Ah can't sit by and watch if she's goin' tuh hurt these people. They've trihed tuh help meh. Ah at least owe them loyalty,' she decided.

"No," she Mystique.

"We can take you by force," said a man she hadn't noticed before. He was wearing a helmet on his head that made it almost impossible to see his face.

"Ah doubt it, but even if ya could, ya'd nevah control meh."

The man chuckled sinisterly. "Don't count on it. Come with us willingly or we'll make sure everyone you care about suffers." Rogue raised a careless shoulder.

"What do Ah care. Ah'm not exactly family with these people. Ah'm just usin' 'em. If ya kill 'em it won't hurt meh a bit," she bluffed putting on her best poker face.

"I don't believe you," Mystique said.

"Fihne." Rogue grabbed a hold of Jamie who'd been in front of her. "Take yur best shot at him."

"I can't tell if you're stupid or crazy," Mystique said. The woman then grinned insanely. "Either way, it'll make you a great addition to our team."

"Let's go," said the tall man rising in the air. He conjured ten large metal balls and he and his two teams entered them. "We'll be back for you."
