Chapter 15
Waking, his coughed slightly, hands moving to graze the gash at his head.
Wagner...
Slight anger emerged through the haze. And where was Rogue? Wagner had known who he was.
" And...he tried to kill me... "
Kurt was maybe more a threat than he had originally thought. He felt completely defenseless when the man had took hold of him and slammed his face against the wall. Such speed and strength had left him stunned.
He was protective. Another asset that would leave him to be in need of disposal. He couldn't get Rogue here. He needed to heal. Heal and make his next move.

Remy's eye's focused on the girl before him, squinting. " Dat be my murderer? "
Rogue blanched and turned her head, saying nothing.
" Remy...," Kurt growled slightly, wrapping a comforting arm about his sister's shoulder.
" If ya were who Ah thought ya were, then ya would have deserved every bit, " she whispered, turning to ruthlessly meet his eye's.
" And now you know dat dis be the wrong cajun? "
" I'm sorry. "
She didn't sound sorry. She was glaring at him, anger and hurt, with regret filling her eye's. He could tell that she was struggling not to cry. He sighed, rubbing his eye's to get them to focus.
" Truce? You give me a kiss, and I'll say I forgive you. "
She...she was trembling. " Ah...don't wan't ya to kiss ya. Ah...can't. "
And he knew he couldn't press her. She had been hurt. He could see it in the way she moved, the way she spoke, and looked.
He smiled and added laughter to his voice, " The little Rogue be havin' a dirty mind. I only meant on the hand. Treat me like the King of Hearts I am. " Kurt smiled and Rogue looked to Remy incredulously, " Kiss ya hand? "
" Yeah. Liked they did with the Kings. You have ta kneel too, " Remy and Kurt were laughing, Rogue turning away in annoyance. " I hope ya die. I hope ya never get out of this bed. "
That made them laugh even harder, and she looked to them, her brother and Remy, and couldn't help but feel a sudden sense of security and happiness. It was only a spark. But it was so much more than what she had previously felt.
Scene Switch------------------
He rememered his mother.
He loved his mother.
And he remembered his father.
His father...
" He's...he's not comming back, is he? " The child tugged on his mother's hand, looking to the haggard man slipping into the car.
" No. He's not. "
" I'm sorry I made him go away. But...I hope he never come's back. " He felt bad for saying that. But he didn't lie to his mother. And she didn't lie to him.
" Your father doesn't understand the wonders out there. He wanted something average. Someone like everyone else. He couldn't imagine something unique and special as you. I love you. I see the wonderful gifts you have. You are what I wanted. Do you think...do you think my love will be enough? "
He smiled at his mother, " Yeah. Just me and you! " She smiled, turning to take her son into the house, thoughts of her husband gone.
Garren Weilder had grown up among the hatred of others, his father being one of them. Homeschooled because of his features, hurt because of the world. He was a walking skeleton. Yet his mother had loved him always. It had been a fascinating surprise when he was thirteen and his mother and he had discovered he was a mutant. By mere touch, he could take memories, powers, and physical beings of other people.
His mother had been proud, thankful for his gifts. And when they other's found out...
They killed her. They killed her to get to him. And when he had turned to the police, they cast him away, claiming he was probably the one who did it due to him being a mutant.
They chalked her murder up to being suicide. And it was then, that he was utterly alone. And that he was no longer sad at the world, but angry. He hated it. He bit at it.
Rogue...Rogue not only held a similiar power to him...but she was alone. Not only was she discrimated for being a mutant, yet she was even an outcast amoung them. She was the precise companion he longed for. And he would not loose her. He could not loose her.
He would give her what she wanted. He would do what it took to make sure she was happy.
