Chapter 32 : Nobody
Pain coursed through her body as she cursed to herself for listening to Logan and leave him to deal with Stryker himself. The pain in her head was killing her slowly and she knew it. She only hoped she would survive this.
Magneto was the only one standing of the three of them. He didn't show any pain and his eyes were focused on the door. Finally, the door of the dark Cerebro opened. The attack didn't stop and Rogue looked at Magneto with tears in her eyes. She clutched her hands to her head and hoped that the pain would soon go away.
Logan was laying in the snow, the pain was coursing through his body like the adamantium on his skeleton. He hoped that he would survive this attack. He cursed to himself for leaving Rogue alone with the rest of the group instead of taking her with him.
The pain slowly ebbed away like snow in the sun. Rogue's hands fell next to her as she felt her body go limp. She forced her eyes open, tears were still blurring her sight. She used the wall to stand on her weakened legs.
She looked at Mystique and noticed she was as healthy as she ever was. The door of dark Cerebro reopened, letting her enter it while shape shifting into Stryker. Magneto smiled at her and left the room.
Rogue's eyes were to tired to stay awake. Her head was throbbing and her legs were weak. She held onto the wall to make sure she didn't faint on the spot. He smiled weakly at her.
She heard footsteps in the distance. She smiled to herself. She recognized the footsteps. She wanted to fall asleep, give in to the darkness. The fight with Vincent had weakened her and the attack coming from Cerebro had killed the last bit of strength she had in her body.
Logan stood up from the snow, he showed no sign of weakness. He continued his way to the helicopter standing on the hill. His feet sank away in the white snow. He sighed, hoping he would leave this lake soon enough.
He hated snow.
After John had arrived not to long after Magneto had left, the rest of the X-Men had joined the two teenagers. They were too worried about the professor not to notice John. Rogue smiled at John as he helped her.
He looked at her, worried. The words of Magneto rang in his ears. He shook his head and thought of the problems they were in now. Now was not the time to question the side he was on.
He hoped that they would get out of here soon. The underground base wasn't lightened very well. Shadows were everywhere and if there was one thing he hated about secret bases, except that they're secret, are the shadows.
"Thanks John." Marie smiled
John said nothing and simple nodded, he wanted to get out of this base immediately. He sighed and followed the rest of the X-Men, holding Rogue's wrist to get her to walk faster. She took a deep breath when they started to run again.
Her thoughts were pinned on Logan's smile as she hoped he would be all right out there. Her eyes darted towards Johns hand on her bare skin. He hadn't noticed it.
Nobody knew about her control over her skin.
Nobody knew how she killed Vincent.
Nobody knew how she got control over her powers.
Nobody knew anything about the problems in her mind
Except Logan.
But Logan was her world, she could not live without him. She only hoped that they would come out of this alive. That they would be able to return to the school. And pick up their lievs where they had left.
