AN: There are a few things I'd like to say. Well... actually I don't. ON WITH THE STORY!

(Finola's POV)

I sighed as I stared at th e ground in thought. My mind pondered over what Jean said to me a week ago. It scared me, I actually found Rogue to be a good friend. I was able to talk to her since I brought her meals. I managed to convince her that I wouldn't hurt her. Though, when I asked her about Magneto's plans, she said she didn't know. Anyway, I continued to stare at the floor when Mystique suddenly came running in.

"Lola! Help (pant) Toad (pant) Sabertooth (pant) fighting!" she cried, worn out from running so fast.

"What about Magneto? Can't he stop them?"

"He's not here right now! We have to hurry." she grabbed my arm and dragged me to the training room.

I entered it to see Toad and Sabertooth pounding on each other... Well, at least Sabertooth was trying to pound Toad, who was dodging every which way. They hadn't noticed me yet, so I heard a lot of their conversation.

"Will you stop it! Lola can choose for herself! I bet she doesn't even like me!" Toad cried.

Sabertooth just roared and lunged at him.

"What is with you!" Toad tried again to calm him as he dodged.

"She likes you enough to make you a threat!" Sabertooth growled.

What am I, a trophy? Finally, Toad noticed me. He stared at me for only two seconds but it was a mistake. Sabertooth lunged at him, slamming him against the wall. He pounded on him, clawed at him, making him bleed like crazy and making bruises the size of Russia form.

"STOP IT!" I screeched and ran at him.

I jumped on is back and started to claw at his face, scratching him. He roared in pain and tried to throw me off, but I wrapped my legs around him tight, so I wouldn't fall off. Then he slammed his back against the wall hard. I held on, but he continued to do that. After about the thirteenth time he did that, I couldn't hold on and collapsed to the ground.

"Mystique, where the heck are you?" I murmured as I tried to get up.

Suddenly, Sabertooth was on me. NOT GOOD! Alarms were blaring in my head. I tried to punch him but he held my hands down, his claws ripping my skin. Then I tried to kick him but he positioned himself so I couldn't move my legs. I was stuck and in big trouble.

"LET GO!" I roared, trying to bite him.

He just laughed. LAUGHED! He growled in lust and leaned down. Oh crap. I successfully got a leg out from under him and kicked him but it seemed he was prepared. He just avoided it and put it back under him. I'm doomed. Sabertooth put my right wrist in his other hand's grip, leaving his left hand free.

"Oh crap!" I squeaked.

He growled at me again, eyes blazing with lust. His hand traveled down to my cheek, where I tried to bite it. He just chuckled and moved it down, brushing against my chest, before clutching my chin in it. He leaned down again, but I couldn't move my head. Oh no! Stop!

"GET OFF OF 'ER!" Sabertooth was kicked off of me.

I looked up and saw a battered Toad. He looked at me and we had the same thought. Who wants to murder Sabertooth? I got up and we lunged at the taller man. But, we got trapped in steel before we could kill him.

"Enough." uh oh, now I know why Mystique didn't come. She was getting Mags.

-time gap-

I sat next to Toad, who was lying in bed while Mystique was fixing him up. Sabertooth was in a cage, to my happiness, and was gonna have a VERY big lecture and VERY large punishment from Magneto. Mystique turned to me.

"He's gonna be fine in about three weeks. So don't worry." then she left.

I looked at my battered buddy. He stared right back at me. After an uncomfortable silence, I broke the ice.

"Why did he attack you?" I asked

"Huh?" was all I got.

"Sabertooth. Why did Sabertooth attack you?"

"We were just trainin' like always when 'e starts trying to kill me, saying I was a threat."

"A threat to what?"

He sighed and looked away.

"You already know, Lola. You were there."

I place a hand gently on his cheek and made him face me.

"I know I was there, I just don't fully understand what you meant."

He looked me in the eyes.

"He wanted you. He wanted you so badly that he would kill to get you for himself." he placed a bandaged hand on my hand, which was still on his cheek.

"Well, he can't have me."

"I know, I said you'd have to choose for yourself."

He turned away again.

"But I already have chosen."

As he turned back to face me, I gently put my lips on his. He was shocked at first but slowly fell into it. Then there was a flash of light. We broke apart and turned to see a grinning Mystique hold a camera.

"Now THIS is definatly going on the web." then she ran out of the room.

My eye widened and I chased her to destroy that camera, leaving Toad laughing to head off.

Like it? Hopefully ya do. Sorry if it's corny.
