Just so ya know, I can't do Russian, Irish, and Scottish accents. I have no idea on how they are supposed to go. So, until I figure them out, those accents are kinda cut, as you noticed with the last chapter.

Disclaimer: I own nothing, I wish I owned X-Men, but I don't see it happening in this lifetime or the next.

"Sean!" Theresa Cassidy aka Siryn yelled as she ran to her big brother's arm and hugged him.

"How are yer doin'? Ready fer the trip ter Muir Isle?" Sean Cassidy aka Banshee asked her. He took in the view of the mansion, seeing how nothing had changed since he was a student at this school.

"I'm great! I got all my things packed up last night. I was supposed to get them done earlier, but I forgot cause Sarah, Rahne, and me were all playing a game yesterday." She answered him with a smile.

"It is good to see you again, Sean." Ororo greeted her ex-student.

"Thank yer, it is nice ter see yer too." He replied with a smile as a bunch of kids came from the downstairs and were now in the hallway with their suitcases. "Ya sure yer wanna go on this trip? Moria said she could handle the kids." He suggested to her as Kurt, Warren, and Betsy entered the room.

"We trust Moria and you with the kids. The Professor just wants to make sure that they are all safe and no one gets lost." Ororo explained to him.

"And all the drinks at night are on me." Warren whispered to Kurt, who grinned.

"I look forward to zat, mein freund." Kurt whispered back. Scott entered the hallway and made his way over to Sean.

"Glad you made it here safely." He shoot his former students hand as he turned to the rest of the children. "Alright kids, head out to the buses." He told them and immediately they all started moving out the front door. "I'll help you load their luggage onto the bus. Ororo, do you have the name list?"

"Yes, Scott. You handed it to me this morning." Ororo replied as they left to help the kids onto the buses.

Girl's Dorm

Rogue yawned as she sat up in her bed and saw her two roommates were still asleep. 'Ah though we had Danger Room practice in the mornin'? How come no one woke us up for that?' She thought to herself as she got out of bed and walked out of the room. The hallways, for once, were quiet.

"Ah guess the kids are gone already." She whispered to herself with a smile as she made her way to the stairs. It was going to be weird without having a bunch of screaming kids running around and having the mansion almost completely empty.

She made her way down the stairs and found Jean in the hallway. "How come there was no Danger Room practice?" Rogue asked her.

"You'll have to speak with Gambit, I think he is in the garage. But, I kinda doubt you will be in the Danger Room today." Jean replied to the younger girl as she walked down the hallway and toward the kitchen.

"Gr, that man better not be doing what I think he is." Rogue growled as she headed for the garage. She opened the door to find her boyfriend sitting back in a chair with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Mornin', chere. Have a nice night?" Remy asked her as she walked over to him and took the cigarette out of his mouth. "Hey!" He protested.

"How many times do Ah have ta tell ya ta stop this? These things are disgustin'" She told him as she dropped the cigarette on the floor and smashed it with her shoe.

"To y' mebbe, but not to Gambit." He said to her as he took out another cigarette.

"Sugah, could ya think about quitin'?" She asked him. She knew how to get what she wanted as she sat on his lap. "For me." She pouted as she looked him in the eyes.

"Oh no, Gambit ain' fallin' for dat one again." He looked away from her, knowing he couldn't resist those beautiful emerald eyes. "It be bad enough y' made moi cut my hair."

"It was gettin' too long. Ah swear, if it went another month it would have been as long as mine." Rogue turned his head to look at him with her gloved hand. She smiled as she looked into his red on black eyes and removed a strand of hair that had fallen over them. "Now stop tryin' ta change the subject. What if Ah got ya one of those nicotine patches? Would ya quit then?" She asked.

"Dose things don' work. Dey just try to trick y'r mind to thinkin' y' quit. Besides, I don' hear y' tellin' Wolverine to quit smokin' his cigars." He pointed out to her.

"He has a healin' factor. He could smoke nonstop and would be perfectly fine. You on the other hand don't have that." She pointed a finger at him.

"Gambit'll think about it." He told her causing her to smile.

"That reminds meh, why was there no Danger Room practice? Storm told us that ya had one planned for this mornin'." She asked him.

"No one goin' into de Danger Room for a while. De Wolverine ain' happy and is takin' it out in dere." He responded to her.

Rogue sighed. "He has been in there almost every night since Scott asked Jean ta marry him. Ah feel bad for him." She said as she leaned her head against Remy's chest. He wrapped an arm around her waist to bring her closer to him.

"Non, it wasn' about dat dis time. Gambit think he over dat, almost. Last night, when we was at de buildin', there were files that talked about him. Dat one Stryker guy wanted him dead. He called dis homme to create de things to hunt him down, even made a clone from him." Remy answered her. Rogue placed a hand over her mouth as she sat up from Remy' chest.

"Oh mah god, how is he?" She asked him.

"Last night, Jeannie had to keep him under control with her powers. Otherwise, he would have gone mad and killed everyone." He told her. "Also, to answer y'r question petit, dere is Danger Room session in a few hours, outside."

"Why are we goin' out there?" She raised an eyebrow as she stood up.

Gambit only grinned at her. "Y'll see."

"Well make sure it ain't that late, swamp rat. Ah got mah lessons with the Professor later." She told him.

"How dat been comin'?" He asked her as he sat up in his chair. A week after the incident with the Shadow King, Rogue began to hear voices in her head cursing and blaming her.

"Well, Ah got the voices under control. At least Ah don' have ta hear Carol blamin' meh for takin' her life away." She answered sadly. She knew it hadn't been her fault. Malice had taken over her body and forced her to absorb a woman named Carol Danvers and several other humans. No matter what anyone told her, she still felt guilty for it happening.

"Chere, y' know dat wasn' y'r fault." He took her hand in his and squeezed it gently.

"Ah just wish Ah could control mah powers, or better yet, get rid of them. All they do is cause harm ta people." She closed her eyes as she felt tears forming.

"Y'r workin' with de Professor and Logan on dat. It take time, but soon y' be able to touch anyone y' want." He reassured her. A month after absorbing the people into her head, Xavier had began to give her special lessons on her power. When she felt she would be able to touch someone, she would touch Logan's hand to see if it worked. Every time, she would end up absorbing Logan, but at least his healing factor made it possible for him to regain consciousness soon after.

"Ah hope so." She whispered. Remy stood up beside her and hugged her close to him.

"Y' will, Gambit know y' will." He told her. Rogue pulled away from the hug and looked up at him.

"Ah just wish Ah could kiss and do other things normal kids could do. Ah mean, when Ah kissed ya a week ago, ya went out for two hours." She sighed.

"It was worth it." He told her with a smile. "De Professor will make help y' along with dis. Y'll eventually learn it." He said to her as he kissed the top of her head.

"Hopefully, that time will be soon. Even ta be able ta touch just one person would help meh a lot. Well Ah'll see ya later." She told him as she began to turn.

"Non, chere. Gambit don' like seein' y' dis upset. Is dere somethin' he could do to make y' feel better?" He asked her.

"Well, ya could take meh out somewhere nice. Just the two of us this time. Ah mean, Ah like having double dates with the others, but it would be nice ta have some time by ourselves. No one is gonna possess or kidnap us this time." She said to him. He smiled down at her and took her gloved hand in his and brought it to his lips.

"Anythin' y' desire, mon amour." He kissed her hand. A grin appeared on Rogue's face.

"Ah'll see ya later, swamp rat." She told him as she left the garage.

A ten-year-old boy was walking home from the park. He loved watching the kids play games and run around. For some of them, their parents would push them on the swings. He sighed thinking how much he wanted that. He had been alone for so many years with no family. He almost forgot what it was like to be loved.

A cool breeze rushed by and made the leaves rustle in the trees, or so he thought. Someone was following behind him and he did not realize it until he saw the bigger person's shadow. He turned around to see a man with blonde hair that looked to be twenty stood behind him.

"Hello, Ian. Long time no see." A smile appeared on the older man's face as the kid took a step back.

"What are you doing here, Lucas? Why don't you leave me alone?" Ian plead. Lucas rolled his eyes.

"You are pathetic. You actually believe you are a child when you're not. You only look it, just like how I will most likely remain this age my entire life. But you know who does age and is able to run a half normal life?" Lucas asked.

"Leave David out of this, he did nothing-" Ian began to say, when Lucas interrupted him.

"-except separate himself into three different people. All of his child memories and telekinesis powers placed in you, all of his bad thoughts and pyrokinetic powers in me. While we only exist as nothing, but a branch off of David Haller. He gets to enjoy his life, gets to be just like his daddy with the telepathic powers. I'm sick of not being a real person." Lucas shouted as he approached Ian.

"Your nuts." Ian whispered to him.

"Oh no I'm not. I'm just going to bring the three of us back together so we are one-person again." Lucas began to laugh. "Ever wonder what happened to Davie's father, Charles Xavier?"

"His mom said he would meet him later." Ian responded.

"I found daddy dearest. We runs a school for mutants. He cares more about other than of his own blood. The man needs to learn a little lesson: don't run out and abandon your son." He vowed.

"I'm not going with you. Leave me alone." Ian raised his hand and threw Lucas into a tree with his telekinesis.

"You brat!" Lucas growled as he watched Ian try to run, but flames blocked his path and surrounded him. Lucas dusted himself off as he began to reproach Ian. "I do not care if you want to or not because you are." He grabbed Ian's hand and both of them disappeared.

At the X-Mansion

"Why are we out here?" Kitty asked as she brought her jacket closer to her. All of the students stood in a straight line in the snow as Gambit came outside to greet them.

"Bonjour, mes amies. Nice day, no? Since no one can enter de Danger Room for today, mebbe even tomorrow, we gonna be outside. Today is mostly about team work." He told the group.

"What are we doing?" Jubilee asked him.

"Snowball fight." He answered. "Y' both already have y'r teams so, have fun. And no using powers today. Dat means no creatin' snowballs, Frosty" Gambit told the group as he glanced at Bobby.

"What, I'm not going to do anything. You should be looking at Pyro, he cheats!" Bobby complained.

"Hey Drake!" Wanda called. As soon as Bobby looked over he was hit by a snowball.

"That's it, your going to get it." Bobby shouted as he grabbed some snow and threw it at her. The students divided themselves into their teams. Team one was Rogue, John, Jono, Piotr, and Wanda. The second team consisted of Jubilee, Bobby, Lorna, Pietro, and Kitty.

The teenagers started attacking each other with snowballs. Jubilee hit the ground as three snowballs went over her head. "Haha, ya missed-" She began to say when she was in the face.

Sorry, Jubilee. Didn' mean ter hit ya. Jono appologized to her. He was hit by a snowball from Pietro, who was launching them, while Lorna and Kitty handed them to him.

Rogue laughed as she dodged the snowball aimed at her. She glanced over to see Remy watching the group. She smiled to herself as she grabbed and hand full of snow and hid it behind her back as she approached her boyfriend.

"How ya doin', sugah?" She asked him, the smile still on her face.

"Better now dat y'r here, chere." He grinned down at her. He didn't see the snowball behind her back until she hit him in the face.

"Gotcha, Cajun." Rogue laughed at him as she flew off to join her group.

Remy wiped the snow off his face. "Looks like chere gonna be spendin' sometime after class. Though, Gambit really don' mind dat." He mused to himself.

End of Chapter 2

Note: Lucas and Ian are not OC, they are from Sins of the Son episode in X-Men evolution. They were much more easier to understand than the comic version so I used them.
