Chapter Eight

"Wow,'' Rogue said,'' Sounds better then my life.''

"What about your life?" Remy asked.

"I had a boyfriend, I didn't have my power then,'' Rogue said,'' Then I kissed him, he was in a coma for almost three weeks. He never talked to me again.''

"That sounds sad,'' Ben said.

"It was,'' Rogue said,'' My dad didn't like it, so I ranaway. Logan found me, then the x-men found us. I've lived at the x-mansion for almost two years. Meet alot of friendly people, also met my half brother, who is so nice.''

"You told us about him,'' Greg said.

"Ya,'' Ben said,'' Blue skin, pointed ears, and a tail.''

They walked in silence for about ten minutes. It was dark and the only light was the traffic passing them.

"This is getting boring,'' Greg said,'' Can we talk.''

"Want to hear a story?" Rogue asked.

"Sure,'' Remy said,'' Tell us the story.''

"There is a few people I know that I'm putting in this story,'' Rogue said.

Story

A boy with red sunglasses on walked into the forest. He looked very sad and everyone knew why. He had lost the love of his life to a guy named Logan, who was a animal with three long claws on each hand.The boys name was Scott Summers. He was a leader of a village, that was destoryed by Logan along time ago. His girlfriend was named Jean Grey, who was a fire goddess.

A few miles away a boy named Kurt Wagner, who was a halfblue elf, walked along the river. He lived in a small village with hardly anything. He was the last of his kind. He also was part of something else. He had a tail and sharp teeth. Some people said that he might be half of the devils kid, but he knew better then to believe them. He was also a village priest. Many people looked up to him for advice.

There were many different people walking around in the forest. There was a girl named Ororo, who was known by many people as Storm, the goddess of the elements. She brought the rain when the people needed it or the sun for cold days.

There was a blue woman named Raven, who could shape shift into anyone she wanted. You couldn't trust her. She was a thief and a murderer. She had tryed to take over the land a few times, but failed.

The person who owned the land was a beautiful man by the name of Remy. He had the power to make things explode. He helped the sick too and feed the poor. Everyone knew him. He lived in the castle about a mile away from where the villages were. He would always look out his window and wish he could go and expore, but he couldn't leave his castle, his mother said that someone might kill him, so he stayed inside. The people came to him if they needed help.

Sitting in a tree, looking at the castle was a girl named Rogue. She was an untouchable. She was the leader of a group called the untouchables. If someone would touch them, they would get their hand cut off. She wished that she could go a see the beautiful king of the land, that nearly all the other girls in the village talked about, but the others wouldn't allow it. She could get a few feet out of the forest, then she would go back.

In a dark castle, far away from the villages, lived the man named Logan. He wanted to own the land, but no one would listen to him. His helper, Sabertooth, kept watch of the castle. His new wife was upstairs in bed, but he didn't like her. He wanted one of the untouchables. He wanted Rogue, the leader. His helper, Sabertooth, came into the castle.

"Anything you need, master?" Sabertooth asked.

"Yes,'' Logan said,'' Go, get the leader of the untouchables, but don't touch her. I want to be the first to touch her skin.''

Sabertooth nodded and ran out of the castle like a cat.

Back in the forest, Kurt Wagner spotted Scott and quickly ran over to him. Scott had helped him in the past, so it was only fair that he helped him.

"My friend,'' Kurt said,'' Are you alright?"

"That monster in that dark castle,'' Scott sneered,'' Took the love of my life away from me.''

"Be lucky you had a love,'' Kurt said,'' No one loves someone who looks almost like the devil.''

"I'm sure someone does,'' Scott said.

"And I'm sure that if she loves you, like you love her, then she will come back,'' Kurt said.

"Thanks, friend,'' Scott said,'' That helped alot.''

Kurt smiled and ran back into the forest. He had other things to do.

Sabertooth ran acrossed the rocky road, with only one thought going through his mind.' Must get the girl and not touch her.'

Remy walked to the castle doors and looked out a big window next to them. His helper, Toad, walked up to him.

"Is there anything you need, sir?" Toad asked.

"No, t'ank you,'' Remy said.

Toad nodded and backed off.He knew when to leave people alone.

Back in the tree, Rogue was slowly falling asleep. The other untouchables werein other trees, they had already fallen asleep. They alwaysslept in trees.Everything seemed so peacefull.

Rogue didn't know the danger coming for her.

Scott didn't know that hislove was in danger.

Kurt didn't know that he was walking intoa trap by Raven.

Remy didn't know that his life was in danger.

They would find out soon though.
