One by One the Souls Will Take You Over

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot. The title is a line from a song called 'And Don't Forget To Breathe' by A Static Lullaby

Summary: This is a different story that is set in a parallel universe- mainly focusing on Rogue and Gambit, set after the end of the second season. Rogue never joined the x-men, in fact she never has meet them, instead she joins the Acolytes. romyness eventually. Note: rogue has a different past in this story. It will be explained as the story continues.

Author's Note: I am sorry but I forgot to mention the fact that Sabertooth also has a healing factor in this story. I am most likely going to repost the first two chapters because upon rereading them I noticed some grammatical errors, however, nothing else will be changed so there is no cause to reread them.

*thought*

Telepathic conversations

Chapter Three: Teammates?

Rogue reacted almost instantly to Sabertooth's attach. She shifted her weight to her left foot and used Sabertooth's own momentum to throw him into a wall. With a satisfied smirk, she realized it even caused a dent to appear on the metal wall.

Sabertooth snarled as he stood up, and began stalking towards Rogue. "Apparently, kitty cat ain't learned his lesson yet." At those taunting words, Sabertooth proceeded to tried and claw her. However Rogue managed to grab his hand bending it backwards until she heard it snap. Rogue then flipped backwards when she saw a metal beam coming at her from the corner of her eye. It missed her completely. Sabertooth on the other hand, wasn't quick enough, and having caught the beam in his med section, was pinned up against the wall, about three feet off the ground.

Rogue turned towards Magneto, who had his hand stretched out in front of him, holding Sabertooth to the wall. "Rogue, it is customary not to start fights with your teammates."

"An', ya know it is customary ta de-claw yoah cats, Mags. Besides, Ah don't pick fight Ah cain't win." As Rogue said this, Pyro burst into an insane fit of laughter, while the Cajun and Piotr chuckled a little.

Magneto's face turned slightly red; though you could barely tell because of his helmet. "Rogue, reframe from insulting you teammates, please. Everyone here is here for a purpose. I hand picked all of you myself so that I would have the best team around. I have that if my team is to busy trying to destroy each other. Is that clear?" He said while glaring pointedly at everyone in the room, even his son.

"Fahne, Ah won't go swingin' no more punches at Sabby over there, okay?" Rogue answered, barely able to keep from rolling her eyes.

Magneto just nodded his head. "Good now that that is understood," he waved his hand and Sabertooth came crashing down to the ground. He growled once before leaving the room, mumbling something about pesky little kids who don't know what is good for them. "Piotr, please show Rogue her room, and give her a tour. Everyone else, go back to whatever you were doing." Magneto said as her walked out of the room after Sabertooth.

"Damn Sheila! You've got balls! I've never seen anyone take on Sabby and live, love!" St. John said as soon as Magneto was out of hearing range.

"'cept fo' de Wolverine o'course," Remy stated.

"Wolverine? As in Weapon X?" Rogue questioned.

"Oui. Y' know him?"

*****Flashback******

"Wolvie?"

"Yes, darlin'?"

*****End Flashback****

"Naw," Rogue said shaking her head slightly, "Jus' heard o' him." Remy studied her intently, before nodding. "So Piotr, ya gonna show me this base of yoahs?"

"Da, follow me."

Authors note: sorry it is so short. I am trying to figure out exactly where I want to go next with the story, but I also wanted to keep my promise and get this chapter up by Monday. Anyways, please review, and I hope to have the next one up by the end of the week.
