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 8
Rogue let go of Jamie as soon as the metal balls were out of sight.
"What did you think you were doing?" Cyclops exploded his face livid with anger.
"Ah was savin' yur butts," Rogue answered calmly.
"By sacrificing Jamie?" Jean asked just as angry.
"If they thought Ah cared what happened to any of you, then they'd be able to use you against meh. By pretending Ah didn't give a damn about the squirt here, they thought Ah was using you. Until they think othah wise, they won't try and use you as leverage to make meh join them." Jean's eyebrows furrowed as she thought about what Rogue had said, while Cyclops still looked angry.
"That's no excuse!" he continued. "You almost sacrificed a member of our team."
"Pipe down one-eye," Rogue snapped angrily. "Ah saved yur ass and you know it." She turned around and headed back towards the mansion leaving three angry brothers bearing down on the X-men team.
"Rogue," said Professor Xavier catching the teen as she walked out through the side door. She turned around and waited. "I apologize for my teams earlier behavior. You did the right thing. By bluffing them out you stopped a confrontation that could have become violent. Jamie told me and he said he understands what you did and that he would've done the same thing. Actually, he wanted to know if you two could talk sometimes."
"Why?" Rogue asked. Feeling the way she was at the moment, she didn't feel like talking to any of the X-men.
"You two are a lot alike. You fear large crowds so you don't leave the house often, you crave human contact without there being a consequence, and you both are overprotected." Rogue snorted.
"Honey, the only thing overprotected is mah skin," she turned to leave.
"Exactly." Rogue turned back to the Professor understanding.
"Okay," she said. "Show meh to him." Professor Xavier smiled lighting up his features and making him seem younger.
Jamie looked up from his math book as a knock on the door startled him. He looked at his clock and concluded it wasn't one of the X-men as they were training.
"Jamie?" a southern female voice asked. "Are ya here, sugah?" Jamie jumped up from bed and opened the door.
"Rogue?" he asked confused. "What are you doing here?" She smiled at him and he felt his face get hot.
"Call meh Marie, sugah." She walked into his room and sat down on his bed. Jamie, having the mind of a naughty thirteen year old, inwardly grinned.
"Ah wanted to talk to ya. Ah wanted to explain what happened today."
"You already did, remember? I understand. I would've done the same if it were me."
"Who are they?" Rogue asked frowning. "I only recognized Mystique. But the Prof said the others were the Acolytes and the Brotherhood, right?"
"Right. The Brotherhood is like us. Well, not exactly. They work for Magneto. He's the tall guy with the helmet." Rogue looked confused.
"You make it sound like you work for the government."
"We don't, but they work for Magneto. We don't really work for the Professor, but he teaches us to control our powers and to use them to help people, not hurt them. Magneto trains his team to do the opposite. They believe that a war will break out between the human and mutants and they try to start the war and recruit more mutants all the time. That's why the Professor trains us. We stop them."
"But who are they?"
"Well, there's the silver haired boy is Pietro or Quicksilver, the guy with the brown hair and mullet is Lance or Avalanche (he has a thing for Kitty), the toad-like kid with dirty blonde hair and a dirty everything else is Todd or Toad, the big, fat guy with a Mohawk is Freddy or Blob. They make up the brotherhood with Mystique as their leader."
"What are their powahs?" Rogue asked him.
"Well," Jamie started. "Quicksilver is inhumanly fast, Avalanche can create earthquakes, Toad is exactly what his name suggests, and Blob is inhumanly strong."
"What about the Acolytes and what does Magneto do?"
"Magneto controls metal and can fly. They Acolytes are made up from Remy or Gambit who can use his energy to make anything an explosive, John or Pyro who can control fire, Piotr or Colossus who can create full body armor, and Sabertooth who acts and looks like a Sabertooth tiger. Like Wolverine"
"What's his real name?"
"Doesn't have one as far as I know." Rogue grinned.
"That's awful," Rogue said. She looked at her watch. "Ah'd bettah be goin'. The othahs should be done by now. If ya evah need tuh talk ya know where tuh find meh." Jamie smiled.
"You mean it?" he asked. "You'd actually be my friend?"
"Of course, sugah. That is, if you want to be mine."
"Yeah! Of course!" Jamie jumped off of his bed. Rogue stood and grinned at him. Jamie followed her out of his room to the front door talking to her animatedly.
When they reached the front door Rogue gave Jamie a hug making sure that she didn't zap him and aware that the other X-men were watching.
"Ah'll see yah latah, sugah," she whispered in his ear. As she went to leave Scott and the other X-men stepped forward.
"Rogue," he started. "I'm sorry. It's just that it really seemed like you didn't care-"
"That was tha point," Blake said as he and his brothers glared at them from the doorway.
Rogue stated dully, "Look, don't worry about it. Ah would've felt the same way. Just don't underestimate meh again." She looked pointedly at each one of the X-men, save Jamie. Then she and the three brothers left the house.
"By the way, Rogue," Adam said as they entered the car and drove home. "Tomorrow is the first day of school. We already got you some supplies. David's going to take you shopping for clothes."
"Do Ah have tuh go tuh school? Ah don't need any new clothes and thanks for the supplies."
Adam thought for a moment. "Yes. Are you sure? You're welcome."
"Fihne. Yes. Ah know." All three brothers shrugged.
"Okay," they said in unison.
