The Face Behind The Mask

They finally decided to let them into the dining hall. Gambit watched her look at the food placed in front of her. She couldn't eat because of her mask and that Striker had ordered her hands also be hand cuffed ,but he still thought she should eat. His hands were free so he got her attention before making a move.

"I'm gonna take your mask off 'k." He slowly unhooked the thing half expecting to see a monstrous face, but what he did shocked him. She looked at him for the first time and he saw her emerald eyes, her cute pink lips, and he just felt the need to kiss her.

Leaning back quickly he took her fork and started feeding her. She ate happily and slightly smiled at him.

"I wanted ta ask ya earlier …" she started. Her southern twang made him smile inwardly.

"Ask me wat?"

"Wat year is it? I've been here a while…"

"It's May 2, 2012."

"Are ya sure!"

"Yep."

"I've been here fer seven years then."

"Seven!"

"I said it's been a while. More please."

Gambit thought about it. He had been here little over a month and judging by his classmate she probably has been here since she was ten at the least. Every day he tried to get out never caring about the other mutants fates. The moment he met her he cared.

Raised a sa tief if there's one thing he learned it's that once your caught no one's going to save you. Sure he saved his dad and brother's a few times ,but he was always the stronger of them being a mutant and all. Even if they wanted to save him they couldn't. He'd have to save himself. Well himself and the girl. She didn't have a power limiter on. Why?

"Wat's yer name beautiful?"

"People call me Rogue."

"But is Rogue ya name?"

"Tat's te name ya gonna get."

"Well Rogue's a pretty name then. Do ya know where ya parents are … were."

"Dead."

"Mine are to I guess. But I got an adoptive family though."

"That's nice."

Observation Desk

"Her mask is off sir. Shall I do something."

"No we still need her alive."

"Schwartz how's the pool working?"

"I've tried to incorporate her DNA but it leaves Deadpool's blood sample sterile."

"Sterile?" Striker asked turning away from the security cameras.

"Yes, once her blood is injected into a sample of his her blood spreads like a virus attacking his blood and leaving it neutral."

"Neutral Jane?"

"With continued exposure Deadpool would eventually lose all his mutant powers permanently."

"How long would that be?"

"At the longest one month, but more likely two and a half weeks."

"Damn. We searched her out for the pool and we can't do a damn thing with her!"

"May I suggest," Dr. Jane Schwartz tried to calm him as she looked out of the window at Rogue and Gambit, "If she were to get … pregnant. It is possible that her child would carry both her mutant mother traits as well as the mutant father traits."

"How do you get her pregnant?" Zero asked baffled.

"Ignore my incompetent soldiers' remark."

"No that is ok Striker. Zero are you aware that we can simply put a limiter on her or surgically take an egg out, fertilize it, and place it back inside."

"That's gross." Zero admitted looking away.

"I don't want any mutant bastards running around here Jane."

"You won't have another choice sir. We've been working with her DNA for seven years with our best scientist. It didn't even take this long with your son or Mutant X when he was here."

Striker really didn't want any mutant babies to deal with. Looking over at the two getting along he had had a feeling that would soon be earning his keep.

Back in the Cell

"What's it like outside I was unconscious when they brought me in here? Wat do ya do fer a livin? Wat state are we in? Did ya go ta high school I didn't? …" Rogue had paraded him with question after question for nearly two hours straight. Then she grew silent again. He had to get her out of here but how?
