A/N: Wow, it took me a really long time to finish this, mainly because of the fact that I have a tremendous case of writer's block. But well, this is the best I could do.
WARNING: I will probably not be updating until the end of May at the earliest, I have to study for AP exams. Sorry for the inconvenience. Exams aren't my cup of tea either.
Chapter 4 (Part 2) : Payback's a Female Dog
Payback's a bitch.
-Who hasn't said it?
From the minute Logan announced Operation Set Back, the world seemed to move into slow motion. Remy took the machines on one side and guided them to the middle of the room. Rogue did the same thing. Every weapon, gun, knife, laser, wrecking ball everything was focused on the two in the center of the room.
"Well, chere, dis was fun." Remy quipped.
"We outa' do it again some tahme (time)." Rogue whispered back. The sound of the lasers firing and guns sounding. Explosions could be heard shaking the entire institute. No one knew whether or not the couple had been successful or…not.
Wanda was walking down the hall. She had been having a great dream about a certain pyromaniac when she was abruptly woken up by Addy. So, Rogue and Remy were going to attempt Set Back. Good Luck.
Her footsteps echoed in the quiet of the mansion. Every around the Danger Room had been sound-proofed. This was a main reason the adult wing was there. What was she going to do? She liked John. He was a great guy and had the…um…gifts to prove it. Speaking of John.
The pyromaniac stepped out of her room wearing nothing but a pair of gym shorts, and thank whatever is out there, that hung so low! Wanda quieted the beeting of her feet and walked up behind John.
"Hmm, wonder what's behind down number one." John teased. Her Spun around pulling her into his arms.
"JOHN!" Wanda screamed. She struggled to get out of his strong, well toned, beautifully tanned, talented arms.
"Now, now sheila, don't go getting your panties in a twist, but if you must I'm glad I'm the one their twisting for." Oh god, Expert hands grazed spots on Wanda that not even her deepest thoughts could know how sensitive they were.
"John…John…" Wanda gasped leaning into Him for some well needed and deserved support.
"Now, I don't think we'll end up going to Danger Room today, luv. Little Johnny has other ways he wants to torture you." An evil grin stretched on his face ear-to-ear and the last thing Wanda thought was sex-buddies are fun.
Smoke filled the already cloudy room as more and more machines exploded. A room full of people all held their breathe. The world seemed to go silent as the dust settled down to the ground.
Wires sparkled and sheets of medal lay sprawled across the danger room floor. The censors scanned helplessly for signs of life. The tension in the air was so thick that you couldn't cut it with a chainsaw.
"What are y'all lookin' fer?" Someone asked. The entire room screamed as the turned to around to an unscathed Ramy and Rogue standing perfectly calm. The room fell silent. The only noise that could be heard was the computer repeating:
OPERATION SET BACK ACCOMPLISHED
After showering and getting changed into more suitable school clothes Rogue returned to the briefing room where she saw Logan and Remy talking. Remy had another training session after this where he would 'test' the potential X-men. Poor things, Rogue actually felt bad for them. Been there, done that. She walked up to the "man of the hour" and jumped on his back. Remy was caught comepletely by surprise.
"Mon Dieu! Chere 'ave ya' gained weight?" Remy joked. Rogue didn't find it funny and she smacked him on the back of the head. Rogue knew he was joking, but that was the beauty of their relationship. Rogue slinked off of Remy's back and he turned to face her.
"Ah'm off ta mah last week o' hell." Rogue smiled. A yes Remy remembered the same time last year when he graduated. Xavier indirectly forced him, but it was alright, he did get to see his chere more. Now, she had to go through the same annoyance that he had to. He loved to watch her squirm, in the loving sense.
"Au revoir, Remy'll see ya' later." Remy kissed Rogue and they went their separate ways, knowing that they would see each other sooner then they thought,
"Alright, kids, time to show us your stuff." Logan stood in front of the two newest arrivals, Tony and Victoria. Tony had a smirk on his face and his body language screamed arrogance, but Logan knew he would get his. Victoria, on the other hand, looked terrified.
"Don't worry, the worst that will happen is that your not an X-man or an X-woman." Damnit, where was he? Logan thought to himself.
"Bring it on fluffy." Tony smirked. Logan heard the sliding doors open and the clicking of a very familiar staff.
"You're not fighting me, kid. You're fighting Gambit. So, uh, I hope you've been real nice to him." Logan watched as Tony's face paled and laughed to himself. The little shit would finally get what he deserved. No one fucks with his stripes.
Remy walked in cool and confident. A lukewarm smirk lining his face. This was going to be fun.
"Alright, gens, time ta' show dis Cajun what ya' got. De instrusas' been watching ya' all and tol' me how hard ta' push ya' Don' worry, Remy non going to kill ya'…yet." Remy smirked and the test was on.
Logan could think of a few people he didn't want to be and right now Tony was on the top of that list. Remy would never go to an extreme about it, with the threat of Rogue kicking his ass, but Remy was very overprotective and would die rather than see Rogue with a paper cut. Tony was officially screwed.
A/N: Yeah, can you tell SEVERE writer's block latched on, and sometimes the only way to get rid of it is to write , well, crap. So, I apologize for the condition of this chapter. Worse, it doesn't look like it will be getting better any time soon. Well, I'm sorry it took so long to post.
angelicstar2: What did you think I would kill them off that soon?
DemonicGambit: Suspense is one of the many tricks writer's use to keep you coming back for more. So, yes, I LOVE keeping people in suspense. Praise is always better than getting yelled at, so I prefer praise.
the tiny one: There you go, a very little taste of Jonda. JUST FOR YOU!!! I wasn't going to put the Jonda in this chapter, but then I read your review and how could I not? So, there you go, but don't worry it doesn't end there. I agree Logan does have some pretty scarey claws, but he's really just a big softy, if he likes you. Packed full o' action and a little bit a fluff too.
SweetRevenge151: I'm glad you like.
Sarah The Goblin Queen: Yeah, who doesn't love schizophrenic Edward Norton. ;-) Sorry, I cannot say my master plan yet, let alone Tony's role in it. Loving the new words.
Star-of-Chaos: Yeah, like I was going to have everyone's favorite southerners get disqualified…NO!
pyroluver: AHHHHHH! NOT THE SPOON!
ishandahalf: The amazing thing is, they could probably kick-ass while making out. Can you ask the bunny to give me some of whatever he has, please? No, seriously, I'll do my best.
Please Review, it is the only thing that keeps my spirits up while studying for AP Exams…your review keep me from ripping the text into millions of little tiny pieces!! PLEASE REVIEW!
Until we meet again….
