AN: Goody! Lots of reviews! And in SUCH a short time frame. I know my chapters are short, but at least I update frequently. As promised, the next chapter is up. This time, let's get 10 reviews. Can we do that. I hope so!

2takuya: Thanks for the review. I hope this chapter is better. I get people saying how good it is, but you're right. I was jumping around and rushing it. I won't be going back and editing the last chapters, but from here on out I will be working to do a better job. I'm sorry if ORogue is way too OOC for you, and I get how she needs to be more mature. Thanks for the constructed review and I hope to hear your thought on this chapter.

Jh831: Thanks, and it should be coming soon. Within the next two chapters.

TristeAlma: I can't tell you, it would ruin the story, but you will find out.

Love live life: I did. Here you go :)

Darkangel856: I'm glad.

Byproducts: Hmmm, so dropped a phone and screaming is classic. :) I'll have to do it more often.

Wolf skater: Yeah, too many cliffie's. I agree. I need to stop doing that. Is this a cliffie? I don't know if it qualifies for one. I think so, In which case, I'm sorry. *smacks head* stupid, stupid, stupid.

Diclaimer: I don't own X-men. If I did, X-men evolution would be all ROMY! I was upset with his lack of involvement. Majorly upset.

Rogue was silent. She could not believe what she was hearing. Was it true? She doubted it, but she couldn't be sure. There was this nagging feeling, telling her it was true. She didn't know what to believe.

Meanwhile, behind her back, Kitty and Kurt were engaged in a conversation consisting of silent gestures.

It went kind of like this:

What's wrong with her, do you think she knows who he is?

I doubt it, I've never heard of this Remy guy.

I'm gonna go check on Forge. You should talk to her.

Me! Why me?

Because you are the closest to her.

So!

Good Luck.

Hey. STOP!

But it was too late. With a bamph, Kurt was gone. Hesitantly, Kitty advanced towards Rogue.

"Hey, you okay?" Kitty questioned, placing a hand on her covered shoulder.

"I'm fine Kitty, I just need to be alone for awhile." Rogue had recovered from her shock and entered denial. Still immersed in her thoughts, she ignored Kitty's attempts to break through.

"Maybe you could come down later. It could do you good." Kitty had dropped her Valley Girl cover in the seriousness of the situation.

"Okay, maybe." Rogue was looking at her hands, picking at a lose string on her gloves. She didn't want to listen. She just wanted all of her problems to disappear. The 'new visitor' was not helping things at all.

"Come on, Rogue. Please talk to me!" Kitty pleaded. She wanted her friend to be happy "I'll always be here if you want to." Kitty knew enough to know that Rogue wasn't going to open up to her any time soon. So, with a smile she started walking towards the door.

"Kitty?" she stopped and turned, hoping that she was wrong and Rogue would open up to her."

"Yeah?" A simple word, she wasn't going to push her luck.

"Thanks." And with that Rogue turned away. She was gone, washed away in the denial that overtook her. Her eyes were unfocused as she entered her mind, searching for answers.

"I'm always here." Kitty said with a smile. It was the farthest she had gotten. It wasn't much, but it was a start. Closing the door, she thought of when Rogue first arrived. An unhappy girl, lost, and confused. She had started on the wrong side, but in time, had come to see who her true friends were.

Putting back on her Valley Girl mask, she walked into the Kitchen with her usual ditzy expression, looking for her next victim that would take her to the mall.

In the Professor's office, Logan was upset. Scratch that, he was mad. Angry with the news he had just gotten.

"Chuck, you don't understand. I know him. That sweet-talking Cajun should not be anywhere near Rogue, no matter how old she is." Logan had his claws unsheathed and was paced back and forth, looking like it would be a dream come true if he was allowed the privilege to de-gut someone. For the past five minutes he had been trying to convince the Professor to let him 'take care' of the situation.

"Calm yourself Logan. Rogue looks happy, happier then I have ever seen her. What I wanted to talk about was the fear she had when she saw me. I just don't understand." The Professor was confused. The thoughts he had picked up did not match any of the theories he had

"What's to understand, she obviously doesn't like you anymore." Logan was still stuck on the fact that Rogue was married in the future, to Gambit no less.

"No, Logan. She had been projecting. It's a common thing when a person is in shock. The only thing that doesn't add up is the immense hatred for a person called the Phoenix. I just don't know how she knows who that is." Xaiver was worried. He has only told a select few about that part of Jean's mind. The loss of control earlier that year was just a small part of it. He kept telling himself it wasn't true, but how else could she have known if it wasn't.

Only one theory made sense, but he didn't want to believe it.

In the future, Phoenix had gotten out. And she was wreaking havoc across the world.

AN: Okay, now 10 reviews. You can do it! And remember, I LOVE YOU ALL! And criticism is a good thing if it's for a good reason! Don't be afraid to use it!
