I kinda skipped some stuff I had planned for this chapter, it wasn't anything really important, so instead of Remy and Rogue getting ready for their date, they will be on their date. Also I promise the next chapter will be longer.
Disclaimer: I do own any of the characters in here, if I did they would all stop DYING in the comics.
X-Mansion
Jean sat uneasily in the Rec Room with Kitty and Bobby relaxing next to her. Perched on the armrest next to Bobby, Lorna joined the group. Standing in the spot behind Kitty, Piotr rested his hands on his girlfriend's shoulders.. Wanda, John, and Pietro were all on the couch across from them. Trying to explain to her, Professor X told her of what she used to do and what her powers were. Jubilee had come earlier and greeted Jean, and Jono introduced himself to her. While Remy and Rogue had left a few minutes ago for their date.
"So she was dead and now she is alive?" Wanda asked John quietly. No one had explained the situation to her or Pietro. Lorna hadn't known anything either until Bobby told her who Jean was..
"She was my teacher here before. Then there was this incident where they thought she died. That's all I heard." John whispered back to her.
"You're Kitty." Jean pointed to the young girl beside her. She had tried to relearn all of their names, but when saying them she still didn't remember ever meeting them. "And you're Bobby?" She pointed to Piotr.
"I'm Piotr." Colossus told her politely. She nodded and turned to look at Bobby.
"You're Bobby then?" She asked.
"Yep, that's me." He smiled at her. 'Man, Scott's supposed to be here any minute. He's going to faint when he sees she is alive.' Bobby thought to himself. As if someone had heard his thoughts and wanted to make them true, Scott and the rest of the X-Men walked into the Rec Room. 'I should become a telepath.' He thought to himself.
Scott stared forward in shock. "Jean?" He asked not daring to move or blink in case his mind was playing tricks on him.
Logan stood next to him in equal shock. He knew she was real and not an illusion from the smell, but it was hard to believe she was sitting there before him.
"We, like, found her when we went out for dinner. Can ya believe it?" Kitty asked as she turned around to see the shocked looks on the older mutants faces.
Storm had a shocked look on her face at first, but it soon disappeared into a happy smile as she walked over to Jean. "It is wonderful to have you back." She told the red-head as she bent down and hugged her.
"Thanks." Jean said to her, returning the hug. 'Now, she looks familiar. The man with the sunglasses looks very familiar.' She thought to herself.
"It is nice to see you are vell." Kurt greeted her with a bow. Jean smiled at him and nodded her head.
"If you wouldn't mind, I would like to see you in the infirmary to make sure you are healthy. Though, it can wait until you feel like it. However, I must insist it be sometime this week." Hank smiled down at Jean. "It is good to see you again, Miss. Grey."
Warren placed a arm around Betsy as they saw their best friends go up to the woman they all thought they lost. "Jean?" Scott asked as he took her hand in his and squatted down before her. "I can't believe you're here." He said as he looked down at her hand. 'I never thought I would ever be able to see you again.' He could feel tears forming in his eyes.
Logan kept his distance. "Jeannie." He whispered to himself, making it so no one could hear him.
Glasgow. Scotland
There was a another huge party being held once again in a house near the outside of the city. Men and women were crowded around the area; talking, flirting, drinking, and doing all sorts of things. In the back, blonde, curly haired man no older than nineteen was kissing a girl he had met that night.
"Yuh want to come back to muh place?" The girl asked the guy as she sat on his lap and ran her hands through his hair.
He smiled up at her and kissed her. "Mubbe in a little bit." He told her as he pushed her off. He stood up from the couch to stretch out his back She got on her knees and wrapped her arms around him.
"I promise to make it worth it for yuh." She whispered to him. He turned around and smiled at her. Tonight was like every other night for him. Have one night stands and then move on to the next woman he found.
He turned around and looked at her with a grin. "Well, mube we can see here?" He asked her. He was about to wrap a arm around her when he felt like something attacking his mind. He grabbed his head and staggered back from her and fell to his knees.
"Whut's wrong?" The girl asked as she got to her feet. The young man slowly raised his head to look up at her. She let out a scream when she saw his eyes had turned completely yellow. He smiled as he raised his hand and sent her flying across the room until she hit the wall.
"Pathetic human." He muttered to himself as he got to his feet. "Finally, I am free and soon this world will learn to fear the Shadow King." He laughed.
At the Restaurant
The atmosphere in the building was perfect. Happy couples sitting across from one another, chatting of their day and how much they missed each other. In the background, a small orchestra was playing romantic songs. Towards the middle was a dance floor with only a few couples using it.
Rogue and Remy had arrived at the restaurant fifteen minutes ago and had already ordered their food and drinks.
"How did ya find this place?" Rogue commented as she looked across the table at Remy. He smiled at her.
"Asked around a bit, see what de nicest place was here. Y' deserve de best." He told her as he put down his menu and reached out to take her glove hand in his.
Rogue's cheeks turned a bit pink. "Ah would be happy no matter where ya took meh. Ya didn't have ta go all out for meh." She told him as she looked at his covered eyes. He had to wear sunglasses inside the building to hide his red on black orbs. Rogue sighed as she released his hand. 'Ah would of been happier if we stayed at home, so Ah could look inta ya eyes.' She thought to herself.
Remy got up from his chair and stood in front of her with one arm stretched out. "Y wanna dance, chere?" He asked her, taking her hand again and kissing it.
"Ah would love ta." She told him as he helped her to her feet. They walked hand in hand to the dance floor. She placed one arm around his neck as one of his went around her waist, bringing her closer to him. Their other free hands intertwined with each other as they moved across the dance floor She smiled while she rested her head on his shoulder.
"Thanks." She whispered to him. He looked down at her, confused.
"For what, chere?" He asked her as he leaned his head on top of hers.
"For makin meh feel like a normal person. When Ah was with Bobby, he never took meh to any place like this or treated meh this nicely." She told him.
"Like Remy said before, y' deserve de best, and he'll make sure y' get it. Je t' aime." He whispered back to her as he kissed the top of her head. He hadn't realized the last part he had just spoken.
She looked up at him. "What did ya say?" She asked him. 'He couldn't of said what Ah think he just did, did he?' She asked herself as she waited for him to answer.
Remy finally realized what he had said. 'What's dere to be ashamed of, it's true.' He thought to himself as he smiled down at her. "I love y', Rogue. No other women has ever stolen my heart de way y' have." He told her.
Rogue could feel tears of happiness in her eyes as she looked up at him. "Ah love ya too, Remy." She told him as he leaned down to kiss her lips. "Remy, ya know even the slightest physical contact means Ah'd absorb ya mind and powers." She said to him as she took a step back away from him.
He looked over at her. "Worse fates spring to mind, chere." He told her, once again taking her gloved hand in his.
Rogue smiled as she shook her head at him. "That's all Ah need–thoughts of you runnin' through mah head twenty-four hours a day." She teased him.
"How'd dat be any different from now?" He asked her with a grin across his face. She smacked him playfully in the arm.
"Let's go sit down, sugah. Mah feet are startin ta hurt." She told him as she started walking towards their table.
"Y' sure y' don't want moi to carry y' dere?" He asked her.
"Ah think Ah'll manage, but thanks anyways." She said to him. Once they reached their table, Remy pushed in Rogue's chair and then sat down across from her. He raised an eyebrow at her when he saw her rubbing her foot.
"Y' alright, chere?" He asked her with concern in his voice.
"Ah'm fine, it's just these shoes are killin' meh." She told him.
"Y' wanna leave? I could always tell de waiter to put our dinner to go." He said to her.
"Well ya spent all this money on comin here, Ah'd feel bad for leavin and not enjoyin our meal." Rogue said as she continued to rub her foot.
"It's not enjoyin de meal when y'r in pain, chere. I'll call de waiter." He told her as he started looking around for the waiter.
"Thanks, sugah. Ah'm gonna go use the ladies room ta try and give mah feet a little fresh air." She said to him as she got up from her seat and headed for the women's room.
She pushed open the door and walked over to a bench to sit down. Luckily, there was no one in the restroom, otherwise she would feel a bit embarrassed about taking her shoes off. She took off the high heals she had borrowed from Kitty. "Oh mah gawd, this feels great. Ah swear Ah'm never borrowing anythin from Kitty ever again." She vowed to herself.
"Hello, Rogue." She heard a feminine voice whisper in the restroom. She looked around the and found no one there.
"Who's there?" She called to whoever it was. She slipped her shoe back on her foot and got up from the bench.
"I don't believe we've met. Though, I have been watching you for sometime." The voice laughed. It sounded like it was coming closer.
"Who are ya?" She demanded to know as she looked all around the restroom and still was unable to find who was talking to her.
"Allow me to introduce myself." The voice said to her. Rogue felt something enter her head and fell to her knees instantly. It felt like someone was trying to take a hold of her mind and shut her out. Rogue cried as she felt herself lose control over her body. Her normal beautiful bright emerald eyes turned dark green as she stood up.
"My name is Malice." A wicked smile spread across Rogue's lips. "Just need to get out of here and wait for the Shadow King's orders now." She said to herself as she exited out of the women's rest room.
'Him.' Malice thought to herself as she saw Remy coming over to her. 'I remember him from the tunnels.' She thought as Remy came over and kissed her hand.
"Y' ready to go, chere? I got de food already to go." He told her with a smile on his face.
"Ya, Ah'm ready." She told him, returning a smile. Remy walked ahead of her. 'I'll have to make sure you don't interfere.' Malice thought to herself as she nabbed a streak knife from a table and hid it up Rogue's sleeve.
End of Chapter 8
Note: the man from Scotland that was taken over by the Shadow King is not some random guy, he is actual person from X-Men. Also to give ya a hint of who he is, he appeared in X-Men Evolution.
Loneraven: this story is so messed up and it only gets more messed up as it goes on, but messed up stories are fun to write. Glad ya enjoyed the Jono and Jubes partthough I doubt your happy with the last Remy and Rogue part, and it only gets worse in the next chapter. Thanks for reviewing
bored247: glad ya enjoyed the Jono and Jubes part :) also in the next chappie Logan and Scott confront Jean seperately, so ya have ta wait another chapter, sorry. Thanks for reviewing
dawn1: hehe, well if ya want ya can borrow mine :) Thanks for reviewing
WolvGambit Le Diable Blanc: well ya got your romy in here, not sure if it was good or bad, but it was romy until the end when Malice took over Rogue. Thanks for reviewing
Roguechere:Ult. Ann is really sad, Remy and Rogue are stealing a diamond in Vegas and leave. There is Jug. He fights with them, throws Remy into a sign. He says he is in love with Rogue (ew) Remy gets up and blows up Jugs helmet, but Jugs is fine. Remy then takes down a building behind him and Jugs and it falls on them both. Rogue digs Remy out, he is in bad shape. They kiss, some pink stuff surrounds them, he goes limp (dies), then SHIELD comes and takes his body, Rogue escapes. At the end shows Rogue with red on black eyes holding a playing card :( Thanks for reviewing
darkstorm5000: mostly they are a bit shocked seeing her back, and now it enters into her trying to remember stuff and remember who she was with. That should be fun. Also, I know what ya mean, they can't get a break ever. Now in The End series, Rogue's dead and Remy is not happy at all (gonna go kill Sinnie, cause Sinnie killed Rogue) why must they be so cruel?
Crazy4CocoPuffs: Glad ya liked the last chapter :) As for the fun/not so fun, begins next chapter sorta. there will be scott/jean/logan parts, as well as Malice and the Remy part (not having her kiss him, don't worry, but the chapter won't end pretty) Thanks for reviewing.
firestorm13: hehe, I couldn't let him hurt Betsy, especially if it's not really him :) glad ya enjoyed the Jono/Jubes moment, I'll have to add more of them. Thanks for reviewing
dreamer's dawn: it was meant to be short, but that is not the last of Poccy, but his part won't be for a long while. As for Remy and Rogue, the next chapter is bad, this was only the beginning of it all. (Evil laigh) Thanks for reviewing
Next Chapter: Love that Kills - there is Logan/Jean/Scott scene where she talks to them, Warren and Betsy talk. As for Remy and Rogue. . . erm well you will all see soon. Also special guest appearence by someone from Unexpected Visitor, though I doubt anyone will want to see him. Also the next chapter will be longer, sorry for the short one.
