Chapter 2
Grinning Rogue leapt at Methos making him laugh and soon he began swinging her around like he had done in the old days before the tragedy had separated them.
"It's been along time, Methos, why didn't you ever respond to my letters?" Rogue asked giving her mentor a dazzling smile making him loose all train of thought.
"My dear little flower, you needed to be on your own to learn things I could never teach you." He said letting her go and patting her head gently.
Suddenly Rogue remembered that the others were still hold up in the basement waiting to see if she had survived the battle or not.
"Wait here, I have to tell the others that I'm still alive and okay." She gasped running back into the house-followed closely by an amused Methos.
Down in the basement the teenagers stared at Mystique in confusion, all wondering why she had nearly thrown them down the stairs and barred the door.
"Can you please tell us what's going on yo?" Toad asked jumping over to where the blue shape shifter and winged boy were standing listening intently to the sounds from up above.
"Rogue is possibly fighting for her life and she wants us down here for safe keeping." Hellfire answered automatically not even thinking about who he was talking to until Pietro brought him back to Earth by punching him right in the chin.
"What-the-hell-do-you-mean-she's-fighting-for-her-life!" the speed demon shouted trying to get by Mystique unsuccessfully.
"Listen, Rogue will b----"Mystique started only to be cut off by the pounding feet above their heads, caught everyone's attention.
Holding Pietro tightly and motioned for everyone to stay silent, Mystique and Hellfire prepared for what was on the other side of the door whether it was Rogue or another immortal.
When the door was finally pushed open and their stripped haired friend appeared both older mutants lost their composure and rushed at her both extremely happy and relieved that she was alive and unharmed.
"We were so worried about you, I mean when you didn't come back right away and then the footsteps." Hellfire said fading off as another figure also appeared behind Rogue.
"Who the hell are you?" Mystique growled squinting a little as she tried to get a good look at the intruder.
"I am dreadfully sorry for scaring you all and for being rude, I am Methos an old friend of Rogue's."
Hellfire let out a small gasp of surprise at being in the same room and presence of the oldest known immortal alive aside from Rogue and James that any of the watchers knew about.
Methos smiled at the stunned watcher and turned his attention to the other kids that were staring at him in confusion and some fear as they crept to the younger immortal as if they expected her to protect them.
"Listen, we have to go back to the mansion and stay there till Duncan arrives and then I can explain everything in detail." Rogue said pushing everyone up the stairs.
"Wait just one minute we have to stay here so we can make sure Lance and Wanda are okay before we go anywhere yo." Toad protested wrapping his arms and legs around a support beam.
"He does have a point, if they get here and run into James, they probably wont stand a chance in hell of surviving intact that is." Hellfire stated surprising everyone so much that they agreed.
"Why don't Rogue and I stay behind, that way if James should come around we would be more prepared and plus we would have a better chance of betting him than any of you could." Methos offered pulling Rogue into his embrace pissing Pietro off immediately.
"No-I-think-Rogue-should-come-with-us-to-explain-whats-going-on-now- backoffasshole!!" he hissed jerking the stunned girl back away from Methos making them both crash into the ground.
As Rogue opened her mouth to give Pietro a tongue-lashing he would never forget when Hellfire put his hand over her mouth and motioned for her to look out the basement window.
Looking at the window closer Rogue noticed a smiling face looking back at her, with a pair of demon eyes to accompany the smile and attitude emitting from him in waves.
"Well well look what finally rolled in and after all the excitement has passed." Mystique drawled watching the Cajun crawl through the basement window and land lightly next to Rogue.
"'Ello chere, Remy be very happy ta see you again." He said kissing her hand, ignoring everyone else and the sound of silent laughter.
"Swamp Rat, if you don't get away from me now, I will seriously make you regret it."
Methos watched the interaction in amusement until he saw Rogue's fingers glow green and small blue sparks begin to emit from her fingers.
Silently praying for forgiveness he darted between Remy and Rogue. Pulling the angry immortal closer to him Methos proceeded to kiss her in such a way that even Mystique was blushing.
"Methos, you might want to let Rogue go before Speedy and Cajun get a hold of you." Hellfire called out after awhile seeing that the two immortals weren't stopping anytime soon.
Breaking the kiss Rogue stared up at Methos and remembered the times they had played around on the islands, where no other person could see them or disturb them.
"You haven't changed Methos, not in all these long years."
"Perhaps, but you my dear flower have changed greatly and it suits you."
"We can never go back can we?"
"No, you have people who love you here and I wont tear you away from them, not again."
"Thank you."
Sensing that they were done, Hellfire stepped forward and caught everyone's attention.
"Now that your done and we see the Cajun here, that must mean that Wanda and Lance are with you?"
Remy nodded his head yes, his eyes never leaving Rogue's face and his demon eyes glowed even bright as the woman of his dreams snuggled deeper into this strangers embrace and kissing him...KISSING HIM!!!!!
"Well let's get them and go, yo!" Toad yelled interrupting Remy's train of thought and distracting him long enough to forget his question.
"I agree, the longer we delay the better chance we have of getting caught or worse." Mystique said starting up the stairs followed closely by Toad and a reluctant Pietro.
"Come on Methos, let's make sure they don't kill themselves."
"Go on ahead my dear, I'll bring up the rear and watch your backs for anything."
Nodding Rogue took off after Mystique, thinking about her future and places she would like to visit again once this was all over with and she had survived this.
Watching Rogue ascend the stairs, Methos turned his attention to the fuming Cajun and silently gave himself a pat on the back.
"Now this leaves just the two of us at a very interesting impass doesn't it?"
"Oui, but Remy tinks that de Rogue means more ta you than yer letting on."
"Maybe, but our bridge has been burnt and now you only have to worry about Duncan and the speed demon."
Leaving a much more confused and jealous Cajun in the basement to think about what he had said, Methos went to find his young friend to see how she was faring.
"So ya see Wanda, its more dangerous here than at the mansion."
"I still don't see any real danger from one little human." Lance grumbled but conceded secretly pleased at all the extra time he would get to spend with Kitty.
"I will answer all you questions once I have explained everything and then I wait."
"Wait for what?"
"Damnation."
Still very confused they were all silenced by the X-van arriving in the driveway with Logan at the wheel a scowl present on his face.
"You better have a good reason for inviting them to the mansion stripes." Logan growled climbing out of the van and ushering everyone in except Methos and Gambit.
"Hold on a minute bub, I don't know you," he said pointing at Methos before turning to Gambit," and I seriously don't like you."
"Logan please, I trust Methos with my life and if Gambit stays here he will be killed." Rogue said tugging on her fellow immortals coat slowly pulling him into the van, not missing his stunned expression.
"Rogue, is that who I think it is?"
"Yes but he doesn't remember anything about his past or his future."
"Are you going to tell him anything or leave him hanging?"
"I don't know yet."
Growling in frustration at the two before him, he almost missed Mystique's expression of sadness pass like a shadow over her face and eyes making him worry.
"What's going on Raven, and why is Stripes so worried about everyone all of a sudden?" he inquired*
"An old enemy has appeared in Bayville and it has Rogue jumpy."
"What does he want from her?"
"Her body, mind, and soul."
"Who is he?"
"Her husband."
A/N: yes I know that nobody said anything about the whole kissing thing and the thing Logan said is because she always acts so cold and aloof, don't worry it will all tie in.
