Leaving Hell, Entering LimboGambit moved down the hall like a wraith, no noise coming from his cautious foot falls as he moved down the darkened corridor. Behind him Rogue moved with a silent and feline grace, Remy normally would have only associated with fellow thieves.
Gambit' s eyes scanned back and forth up and down the hall for any danger that might make its presents known. Cells lined the concrete walls a never ending tunnel of steel doors and bars.
Gambit stiffened as he felt a hand on his back. He glanced back keeping one eye on the hall ways surrounding them. The tips of Rogues fingers rested themselves on the back of his trench coat. He saw her eyes flickering back and forth, moving when ever a noise presented it's self. Well Gambit's eyes allowed him to see in the dark, Rogue was virtually blind, relying only any trust she might have in gambit to lead her out of this hell like place.
He reached back and laid his gloved hand on her bare one. Under his hand her felt Rogue jump and then stiffen up at the contact. Remy hesitated a moment then continued leading the female mutant behind him through the labyrinth of hallways that made up the Mutant Fighting Rings prison.
Gambit slipped down hallways and around corners all the while avoiding cameras, motions sensors, and another other traps the prison staff might have thought to put up. Gambit glanced around as he led Rogue down the last of the hallways. At the end of this corridor was one of the multiply exit doors from the prison. They slipped down the hall Gambits eyes never still for a moment.
It was here that was the most dangerous part at any moment Murphy's Law could put itself in to play and like it said when something can go wrong it will. And though he was to busy watching the hall to confirm Remy was sure he felt the pressure of Rogue's hand strengthen, as though she could feel the tension.
When he had reached the door Gambit knelt down to examine the lock. Rogue glanced behind her as a quite but constant noise reached her ears. She turned around a walked a few steps down the hall, squinting through the darkness as she tried to see where the noise was coming from.
Rogue took another step and stopped the noise was louder here, she strained her ears to catch what it was and turned to her right. It seemed louder here to, Rogue reached out her hands in front of her and felt cold steel. It was freezing and burning at the same time making Rogue tear her hands away from it. She leaned in careful not to touch the steel door and realized in front of her was not part of a wall but a cell.
Rogue leaned her ear in toward the cell bars and the noise became words.
"Please no, I didn't do anything, please momma it wasn't me, I not one of them please, you have to believe me, momma no, help me please help me, Dad please I'm not a mutant it wasn't me. NO NO please."
Rogue jerked back from the cell door as though it had burned her. The voice in the cell begged for help was it a nightmare, a memory she didn't know, many mutants suffered hallucinations it was a sign of weakness. You could always tell when someone wouldn't make it in the rings. They screamed in there sleep. Rogue had screamed too at one time many years ago, she was one of the few who did survive.
Rogue glanced back up at the silent Gambit as he got to work on removing the lock keeping them from freedom, then back at the cell door. She leaned in again, only to throw herself back ways as a set of screams ripped through the air shattering the silence like glass.
Gambit's eyes flew up to stare at Rogue. She was looking around wildly, soon guards would some to quite the girls screams and then they would find a trapped pair of mutants.
Gambit glanced down the hall as he heard approaching footfalls and back at the only half open lock. His eyes met Rogue for a moment and for the first time he saw fear there. He glanced at the door rolled his eyes and pulled out a burning card. It illumined the entire hallway like a beacon. He jogged back a few feet throwing the card over his shoulder and blasting the door open. It hung open holding on by only a few pieces of scrap metal, Gambit grabbed Rogues arm and yanked her out the door as the approaching footsteps grew louder and more urgent. The young girl in the cell's screams followed them.
Gambit pulled Rogue out into night infested courtyard. Sirens began to blaze around them as lights swamped the courtyard searching for the wayward mutants. A light flashed over them illumining their progress across the grounds. Above shouts could be heard as more lights slid across the ground to follow them.
"Mutants cease your escape attempt and you will be spared." A male voice yelled over the audio system.
Gambit continued to run pulling Rogue along behind him. Rogue glanced up behind her only to see guards swarming in from all sides before she was blinded by one of the lights overtop of them.
"Mutant halt this is your last warning before we open fire." The voice yelled
Gambit continued to drag the half blinded Rogue behind him never slowing for a moment as he sped toward a solid wall , guards pouring in from all sides after them.
When Rogue's eyes had cleared she stopped dead pulling her hand out of Remy's grasp. Gambit pulled up short his eyes flashing in all directions as guards increased their speed to catch up the escaped mutants.
"Rogue what are you doing." He yelled pulling out more cards charging them up and tossing them toward any guards that might be foolish enough and get within range of the burning cards.
"I should have never trusted you, you've led us right in to a trap. " she shrieked indicating solid walls at their back and the hundreds of guards moving toward them.
"There's no way out. " she screamed over sirens, and shouts from the guards. "you've led us to our death."
Gambit let out another batch of explosive cards and snatched Rogue's arm dragging her along behind him.
"Let go of me!" she raged as his grip on her arm tightened to keep her from escaping.
He turned back to face her pulling out an entire deck of glowing cards. "You know chere when's there's no exit you make one." He said pulling her closer to him so she could hear his voice over the sirens scream. They stayed like this for a moment so close their noises were only inches away from each other before he turned away and flung his hand full of cards at the wall.
On impact the cards exploded letting free a force field that threw down the two mutants and most of their pursuers. Gambit looked up to see a decent sized hole punched through the outer guard wall. He shot to his feet grabbing Rogue's arm again and hauling her to her feet as the guards behind them did the same.
He ran head on toward the hole as behind them guards had stopped their pursuit but had opened fire on the two. Bullets whizzed past their heads as they ran dodging debris and bullets as they continued their flight out of the court yard and toward freedom.
Gambit grabbed Rogue around the waist and threw the two of them threw the hole he had made in the wall. They rolled over each other across the ground as the shouts increased above them.
Shots rained down the them from the rampant above and bullets buried themselves in the ground surrounding the two escapees. "Run!" Gambit yelled as he and Rogue scrambled to their feet. The two tore off across the barren ground surrounding the prison.
It stretched out for a mile ahead of them, their passage was lit by moon light casing a eerie glow over the barren grounds. The two ran dodging bullets as the ran toward the freedom. Once they had made it across this plain it would be easy to hide in the vast city beyond and from there make it to the mutants hidden base.
Suddenly a searing pain sliced across Gambits leg. He was pitched forward on to the ground. A bullet had sliced threw the muscle in his leg and pushed it's way threw the other side. He grinded his teeth in pain as behind him he could hear the approach of soldiers. Gambit reached forward gripping a large stone, he charged it up a tossed it behind him hopefully hitting the moving targets behind him.
Rogue was thrown off her feet by another explosion behind her. She turned to look and saw Remy struggling to his feet. She glanced between him and the recovering guards then in front of her toward the city.
It was so close she could feel it there. But he had saved her life. Rogue bit her lip groaned and ran back gripping Gambits arm she helped pull him to his feet and the two began running as best they could toward the city.
