Time Bomb

Logan and Blade were in Charles' chamber, meeting with him in the astral plane. "Logan. Blade." He called out before his 2 temporary leaders opened their eyes.

"Charles." Blade and Logan said together.

"Nice to see you both again, my friends." Charles said humbly.

"You've had us a little worried about you, Chuck. Where you been?" Logan asked, concerned about his mentor.

"The future is a hostile place, my friends." Charles said while putting his hands on their shoulders. "Piecing together the past has been...a challenge, to say the least."

"We take it you found something?" Blade asked.

"I have. And what I'm about to ask you both to do...will go against everything that myself and Noah Van Helsing have ever taught either of you." Charles said with regret, knowing that neither Logan or Blade would like this. "But it is essential that you succeed."

After Charles told Logan and Blade what he wanted them to do, they walked out of his chamber with looks of doubt and regret on their faces.

Meanwhile

After the Mutant Response Division had captured Toad without any trouble, they had thrown him in his personal cell...but before the guards could even walk away, Quicksilver had appeared and thanks to his super speed, he had knocked the guards out in a mere second!

Toad was ecstatic after seeing his team leader and asked him to bust him...only for Quicksilver to bluntly counter while pulling out a small digital camera and adjusting the lens, "Zip it Toad. I'm not here to break you out, I'm leaving you here."

The scrawny and useless Mutant asked with a quivering lip after hearing Quicksilver reveal that he and others were kicking him off their team. "You guys are dumping me? Why?"

Quicksilver stated plain and simple while raising four of his fingers. "1: You're disgusting. 2: You make a mess out of everything. 3: Domino, the guys and I are SICK of your constant whining and 4: You are friggin' worthless and always get caught by the cops and MRDs! Now stand still!" Toad cried in shock as the light from the camera flash stunned him and Pietro stated while snickering at the photo he just took as a keepsake. "Nice, Blob is gonna get a kick outta this."

Even though Toad was extremely hurt that his so called 'friends' and 'team' were discarding him like trash...he realized that it was actually a blessing in disguise and stated. "Fine. Leave me here...I don't care."

Pietro was surprised, as he didn't expect the sickening and cowardly Mutant to take being left to rot in prison rather well. "You...really don't care that we're leaving you here?"

Toad stated. "That's right...I don't. Besides...this may actually be good for both of us."

Quicksilver asked, as he was intrigued by what Toad meant by that. "How do you mean?"

After Toad had provided Pietro the name of a powerful mutant, who had come of his own free will but had lost control of his explosive powers because the MRD agents tried to put him in a crowded place, that the MRDs held captive at a supermax location...the speedster had exited the prison to meet his friends back at their hideout.

Domino asked while playing a game of pool with Rogue, who had grown even closer with the marked mutant due to being in a secret relationship because of the gift that Domino had given her. "I take it Toad's still in MRD custody?"

Quicksilver nodded while handing the photo he had taken of Toad to Blob. "Yep, I left his useless ass there."

Both Avalanche and Blob had high fived each other in complete joy. "Yes/Finally! We're free of that bumbling idiot!"

Even though Rogue was...somewhat glad that Toad was no longer part of the team, especially since he had tried to spy on her and Domino before his arrest when they were trying to...get closer together, she felt bad a little bit for leaving him in prison and asked softly while taking her turn at the pool table. "How'd that perverted idiot take it?"

Quicksilver answered truthfully. "He took it...surprisingly well."

The moment the words had left his mouth...the hideout became silent as both Rogue and Domino glanced up in surprise, along with Blob and Avalanche, who were laughing at the priceless look on Toad's face from the camera's flash.

Blob asked while still stunned at what his team leader said. "He was happy to be left in jail?"

Quicksilver added while rubbing the back of his head. "Toad and I sort of...cut a deal before I left him in MRD custody."

Domino asked with an intrigued look on her face, along with Rogue as she drank from the plastic bottle of water on the billiard table. "A deal?"

Avalanche asked just as intrigued. "What sort of a deal?"

Pietro answered while sighing softly and shaking his head to what he was about to say. "He's...going to act as my eyes and ears in MRD custody."

As soon as she heard that, Rogue had sprayed the water out of her mouth in great shock and asked while coughing, with her girlfriend softly patting her back. "What?!"

Avalanche asked with an equally shocked expression on his face, along with Blob. "Toad...acting as our eyes and ears in prison? You've got to be joking."

Quicksilver stated with a serious look on his face. "I wish I was...but I'm not. He actually proved himself useful...since he gave me the name of a Mutant who might be worth recruiting."

Domino asked after her younger girlfriend recovered from shocking news of Toad being their 'inside man' in MRD custody. "Who's the Mutant?"

Pietro answered while cutting to the chase. "Toad said this Mutant is called Nitro, because apparently he can make really huge kinetic explosions. Because of his powers, the Mardies call him the 'Living Time Bomb'."

Even though both Blob and Avalanche were fascinated after learning how powerful this Nitro was...Rogue was completely against the idea of recruiting a very unstable Mutant with a dangerous power like that and nudged Domino to follow her so they could talk in private.

Once they got to the roof, Domino turned her girlfriend to her and asked with love. "Are you alright, sweetie?

Once they exited the main living room, Rogue shared her doubts about 'recruiting' Nitro into the Brotherhood...especially since Toad told Quicksilver that Nitro's powers made him a living tinder box: which meant he couldn't control his powers.

"And if he's anything like Quicksilver said, if he's in a large crowded area, I really can't imagine the destruction and death that he'll cause."

Domino also shared Rogue's concern about recruiting Nitro and reassured her girlfriend that once they met Nitro face to face and witnessed his powers themselves...she would try to convince Quicksilver into leaving Nitro alone, especially since she was morally against recruiting Mutants who couldn't control their powers to their cause.

"And besides, if Quicksilver is thinking about taking Nitro where I think he is, a whole lot of mutants are gonna die." Domino said with great concern, as she had a feeling that Quicksilver was thinking about taking Nitro to Genosha to show him to Magneto.

"If that's true, we gotta try to stop him. I know Magneto wants powerful mutants, but I don't think even he would want a very unstable mutant like Nitro anywhere near his island, especially if he felt like he was a danger to it and every innocent mutant on it." Rogue said with great concern for all the innocent mutants on Magneto's island.

Before they had left the hideout, Domino asked while lovingly cupping Rogue's face with her bare hands. "Say Ro-" She started but caught herself, as Rogue had wanted Domino to call her Marie from now on when they were alone due to them being in a secret romantic relationship. "Marie, how'd you like to spend some...quality time together in my bedroom later tonight?"

After hearing the seductive nature in her older girlfriend's voice, Rogue smiled lovingly and seductively at what Domino was asking her and replied with the same time of seduction in her voice. "Dom...I'd love to hang out with you in your room much later tonight...baby." Before she gave her girlfriend a passionate kiss.

Meanwhile, in the Cerebro chamber

Emma was operating Cerebro, doing everything that she could to try to find Jean. But, to her sadness, she couldn't find the woman who had won her heart and the love of her life anywhere.

After a few more minutes, she took off the helmet as tears fell from her eyes. "Jean, my beautiful princess, where are you?" She cried before Selene and Amelia appeared behind her.

"You still haven't found her yet, have you, Emma?" Selene asked her telepathic friend with sympathy.

"No, Selene, I haven't. I don't understand. Jean is a level 5 Mutant the same as Charles and myself. It should be easy for Cerebro to find her... unless she-"

"Don't even think about that, Emma. Jean is out there somewhere. I know that Selene and I don't know her as well as Blade, you or anyone else here, but we all have to believe that she's out there somewhere." Amelia said, trying to comfort Emma, as she knew from experience that it wasn't easy to lose someone who loved you with all their hearts.

Emma, thought still having small doubts, was comforted by her vampire friends' words and smiled a bit. "You're right, my friends, I'll just have to keep looking for her and hope that sooner or later, Jean will be found. And I want to be there when she is and be the first person she sees."

"We'll make sure of that, Emma. We promise." Selene said with a smile before she and her Amelia hugged the blonde telepathic mutant.

"Thank you, my friends. But I'm afraid that I now have to focus my attention on other matters." Emma said with a bit of disappointment before Logan and Blade entered the chamber.

"We need you to find those Brotherhood clowns." Blade told Emma, who quickly did just that.

After Blade and Logan gathered everyone, Ororo asked. "What's the emergency?"

"The Brotherhood broke into an MRD base and kidnapped an innocent mutant." Logan answered.

"So this is a rescue operation?" Hank asked.

"Sort of. We're going to free him from the Brotherhood and then give him back to the MRD." Blade answered with regret.

"What?! But that goes against everything that the X-Men have ever been taught." Selene said with disbelief that the X-Men were about to go against everything that Charles had ever taught them.

"We said the exact same thing to Charles, Selene. And he told Logan and I that if we don't do it, half the world's mutants are gonna be wiped out by what this unstable mutant can do." Blade said, still regretful.

After the Brotherhood had attacked the MRD facility where Nitro was being held...they quickly found and met the powerfully unstable Mutant, who begged them to stay away from him and struggled to keep his powers under control. After getting him out and away from the base, they took him to a heavily guarded underground base that had data on every registered mutant, which they planned to destroy to send the MRD back to square one.

Unfortunately, once they got inside, Nitro finally lost control, making Quicksilver quickly throw him down the elevator shaft before he and the others barely got out as the base exploded, much to Rogue and Domino's shock, as their concerns about Nitro had been correct.

Once they saw how unstable the broken Mutant was, especially since he had destroyed the base with his power and how destructive it really was...Rogue and Domino sadly turned to each other and nodded before the blue/gray skinned ex mercenary stated. "Quicksilver...I think we should just go and drop him off at the next closest MRD base."

Quicksilver asked while turning to his second in command. "Are you crazy, Domino? This guy could prove to be a fine addition to the Brotherhood and even Magneto's army."

Rogue asked while scoffing at how selfish Pietro was being. "Are you friggin' blind or somethin', Quicksilver? Look at him, he can't even control his powers and you saw how unstable he is and what his powers just did. We can't recruit someone..."

But she was unfortunately cut off, as Avalanche had coldly shoved her aside and Quicksilver replied just as coldly. "Sorry Rogue, but we didn't come all this for nothing. Toad said this guy's power is powerful...and we're going to show him to someone who will definitely like having him. But don't worry, we'll help him out, but not with humans."

Meanwhile

Logan was driving the X-Van, that Blade, Kitty, Selene and Amelia had tagged along in, to the destroyed MRD base before Kitty phased out of the van and Logan stopped before he and his vampire allies got out as well. "What happened? Are we too late?"

"Looks like we are." Selene answered before contacting Emma. "Emma, please tell us that the trail hasn't turned cold."

"No, Selene. I've already found them at an airport 20 miles from your position. And...they have a telepathic mutant with them."

"Is it Jean?" Blade asked with a bit of hope.

"Unfortunately no, Blade. This one's a pathetic amateur. I'm taking the Blackbird and I'll come to pick you all up once I've gathered the others. But we must hurry, because I know just where they're taking this Nitro."

A bit later

After the Brotherhood had loaded Nitro into a plane that they hijacked against his well, along with a telepathic mutant who wasn't on the same level as Jean, Charles or Emma: Psylocke, who had managed to shut his mutant power down, Rogue and Domino had checked on the unstable mutant...who soberly pointed out how Quicksilver, Blob and Avalanche didn't even care what happened to him once his powers spiraled out of control and asked the two female Mutants why they joined the Brotherhood.

Rogue stated with equally soberly eyes, as she knew Nitro's words were true and realized that she made a mistake leaving the X-Men. "It's...It's complicated."

Domino answered softly, as she began to realize she made the same mistake as well. "The only reason I'm with them is because...I had nowhere else to go after I stopped being a mercenary." She said before she looked at Quicksilver. "And last I checked, Magneto didn't want you anywhere near his island, Quicksilver!"

"That was before." Quicksilver countered. "And how could he not be impressed with me after I blew up the MRD archives? Plus, wait till he sees Nitro."

"Oh I think Magneto would tell you the exact same thing we've been tryin' to tell you, Quicksilver! Nitro is far too dangerous and unstable to be around any crowded place, especially on Genosha!" Rogue said with a glare, knowing that even Magneto would agree with her and her girlfriend.

But suddenly, the airplane's engines were getting frozen... before Kitty phased in and quickly got to Nitro. "Hi, Rogue. Hi, Ms Domino." Before she phased herself and the unstable mutant out of the plane and into the Blackbird.

"Domino, do something!" Quicksilver ordered.

"Um, I know I don't like the X-Men, but if they're taking him back to the MRD, I say let them! Because all this is clearly just so you can try to impress Magneto and get back on Genosha!" Domino said with a glare.

"Fine then, I'll do it myself!" Quicksilver said before quickly taking 1 of Domino's guns and shooting the Blackbird down by the engines!

"Prepare for impact!" Hank told everyone, who did just that.

"Iceman, we need a landing strip, now!" Blade told his mutant friend.

"Already on it, Blade." Bobby said before he quickly used his power to make a big enough block of ice to land on, which worked as the Blackbird safely landed. But the process exhausted Bobby a bit.

"Impressive, Bobby, I didn't think you were powerful enough to make an ice land that large." Selene, who caught Bobby in her arms, said with a smile.

"Well, I'm not usually around this much water, Selene." Bobby said, smiling back.

"Well, remind yourself to practice that a bit more once we get back home." Amelia added with a smirk.

Once the Brotherhood landed, Wolverine and the others battled Quicksilver, Blob, Avalanche, Psylocke...while Rogue and Domino simply kept watch over Nitro and asked for help once he could no longer hold his powers back, with Emma easily defeating the other telepathic mutant. Fortunately, before the battle begin, Emma had told Logan and Blade about Psylocke trying to shut off Nitro's power but because she never tried to shut down someone's powers before, it didn't work, as his power was slowly turning back on and the unstable mutant was very close to unleashing a far more power blast. But fortunately for both the Brotherhood and X-Men, Storm had used her powers to create a shield to contain the explosion before gently laying him on the ground.

Rogue and Domino then ran up to Nitro. "Nitro! Nitro!"

"It's alright, Nitro. Everyone's fine. Everything's going to be alright." Domino said softly while looking at Rogue lovingly.

Quicksilver sighed with great relief, as he now realized that Rogue and Domino had been right about Nitro all along. "Whoa, man, that was so close."

"You don't know how close, Quicksilver. You and your clowns would have been on Genosha by now and if that unstable mutant had set foot on Genosha, his power would have wiped out half the island and every mutant on it!" Blade said while getting in Quicksilver's face and showing his vampire traits.

Quicksilver, while knowing that he could probably take Blade in a fight, was still very afraid of him due to Rogue telling him who he was and what he could do with his sword. "You're... Blade, right? The...Daywalker and vampire hybrid?"

"Yes. And we're taking that Mutant back to the MRD! Got a problem with that, Pietro?" Blade asked with a hiss.

"No." Quicksilver said while looking away.

"Excuse us, traitor." Selene said with a bit of venom in her voice at Rogue as she and Amelia carried Nitro away from her and Domino.

But the unstable mutant looked at them, silently giving the 2 female mutants his thanks, which Rogue and Domino nodded to before Logan and Blade walked past them without saying a word, but Blade did nod to them, as he had heard everything that Domino and Rogue had said thanks to his vampire hearing.

After they took Nitro back to the MRD, the unstable mutant walked in while Logan, Blade and Hank looked on with regret for Nitro's fate. "We did what we had to, my friends." Hank said softly to comfort them.

"Yeah. But it doesn't make it any easier." Logan said with disappointment that he actually helped the MRD.

"Nitro knew that his power was far too unstable for him to be around others. And since shutting it off didn't work, there was probably nothing anyone could have done to help him without giving him to the MRD." Selene said to her surrogate brother.

"I know, Selene. But it doesn't change how we're feeling right now, even if what we did was the only way." Blade said sadly before they all walked away to head back home.

Meanwhile, at the Brotherhood hideout

Shortly after the Brotherhood had returned to their hideout...Quicksilver, Blob and Avalanche, who were still angry about their current defeat to the X-Men and realizing that breaking Nitro out of the MRD custody was a big mistake...simply went straight to their own rooms to catch some much needed rest, along with Rogue and Domino, who both had went into the blue/gray skinned mercenary's room to have their quality time together, as they both knew that this is what they needed to feel better for the whole ordeal.

Once they were inside Dom's room and the door was locked, the two girlfriends sat on her bed and locked lips in a sweet and innocent kiss, which slowly turned into a heated make out session as Domino had pushed Rogue further onto her bed and seductively climbed on top of her while cradling her younger girlfriend's head in her right hand before they resumed their making out.

Once the need for air became too great, both Rogue and Dom had broken their kiss and caught their breath with loving smiles on their faces from the heated passion they shared in that one single kiss. Dom had slowly leaned down to plant her lips over the brunette's again...only for her girlfriend to stop her. "Dom...wait."

The blue skinned mutant asked softly. "What's the matter, Marie?"

Rogue answered softly. "I...I don't want to hurt you."

Domino immediately understood what her younger girlfriend was so afraid of: that her powers would kill her as they made love for the first time. But she only smiled and replied softly while cupping Rogue's cheek tenderly as their eyes met.

"Marie, nothing's going to happen. We've made great progress with your powers. I'll help you control it." The marked mutant assured her girlfriend before she asked softly while cupping her younger girlfriend's face in her bare hands. "But...are you sure you want this? Because there's no taking any of this back once we go all the way. Ever."

Rogue smiled, as she appreciated Domino asking if she was absolutely sure if she was ready for this next step in their relationship: as she was three years younger than her and more importantly...she had never had sex with anyone, let alone another girl before due to her toxic mutant power. "I want this, Dom. I trust and...love you."

After hearing the words leave the brunette lips, Domino stated softly as she smiled. "I love you too, sweetie."

The two girls then locked lips in a loving kiss, which became more heated as their tongues wrestled around for dominance. After they pulled away to breathe, Rogue had lifted her arms up, allowing Dom to remove her shirt before the blue skinned mutant allowed her younger girlfriend to unzip and remove her upper clothes. Once they had discarded their upper clothing onto the floor, the rest of their clothes followed...leaving the girlfriends blushing madly, as they admired how sexy and beautiful the other looked completely naked.

After they had locked lips in another heated and passionate kiss, Domino had placed a trail of tender kisses down Rogue's chest between her breasts...where she swiftly latched her mouth over the left breast. Rogue had moaned while blushing madly as she felt Dom's lips kissing/sucking on her breast as her tongue licked and pleasured the nipple before switching over to the right breast.

"Oh yeah, Dom! Oh yes! Fuck! Keep pleasurin' my breasts! Oh god, yeah! I...fuckin' love this!" Rogue moaned, feeling so great from the pleasure Dom was giving her.

After she was finished pleasuring her girlfriend's tits, Domino had trailed placed tender kisses down Rogue's stomach and smiled at the sound of her younger girlfriend giggling/chuckling softly as she went down lower...and stopped once she reached her main destination.

Dom looked into her girlfriend's eyes and asked softly. "May I?"

Rogue answered with a loving smile on her face. "Go for it, Dom."

The blue and gray skinned mutant smiled, as Rogue had given her consent and softly inserted her tongue between her legs, licking her pussy with amazing skill as she kissed it and sucked on it to increase the pleasure.

Rogue had moaned with her eyes rolling behind her head, as she felt Dom kissing/licking her clit and labia, which sent huge waves of pleasure surging throughout her body. "Oh yeah, Dom! Keep pleasurin' my pussy! Don't stop! Don't... fuckin' stop! Oh fuck yeah!"

As she continued pleasuring her girlfriend, Domino had moaned herself, especially as she couldn't believe how delicious the younger brunette southern belle's juices tasted...and gently inserted her pointer finger in her clit, which caused Rogue to moan louder as her toes curled and pulled on the bed sheet underneath them.

As Domino continued to pump her pointer finger between her lover's legs, she softly added her middle finger and pumped both digits at a slow and gentle pace, which caused her girlfriend to moan in complete ecstasy and move her hips in complete sync, as they thrusted up to meet Dom's fingers.

Rogue stated while moaning softly. "Dom...please."

Domino asked with a loving smile. "Please what, baby?"

The southern belle brunette answered while smiling and blushing at the new pet name her older girlfriend had just called her. "Take me...Please, my love. Take me...now."

The blue skinned mutant replied seductively and lovingly. "As you wish, sweetie." Before bringing her fingers as deep inside Rogue's pussy as they possibly could go, making the southern belle mutant gasp from the pain of finally losing her virginity to another woman before Dom leaned down to passionately tongue kiss her girlfriend, which eased her pain a bit as their breasts touched before the pain went away and was replaced by pleasure.

Domino quickly resumed her paste after getting a nod from Rogue to continue, only the southern belle mutant felt more pleasure than pain as Dom began to eat out her pussy again as her younger girlfriend held onto Domino's beautiful soft hair... until Rogue finally came inside her girlfriend's mouth, with the ex mercenary finding her juices so sweet tasting as she swallowed every drop of them.

Once Rogue had climaxed for the first time, Domino climbed up and once they were nose to nose, they locked lips in a burning passionate kiss and moaned in deep arousal, as the brunette's fluids were still on her lips as their tongues danced around each other in a lustful battle for dominance as they exchanged saliva.

After they had needed to breathe again, Dom stated while cupping her lover's face in her hands and brushing a few strands of loose hair behind her hair. "You came very quickly."

Rogue apologized with a smile on her face. "Sorry, love."

The blue skinned mutant replied. "Don't be...you tasted very sweet, my beautiful southern belle." Before she was put on her back gently and they continued to lustfully kiss, moaning in each other's mouths until they needed air.

Once they had switched places, Rogue gave Dom the exact same treatment she had given her: pleasuring her breasts and taking her time as she kissed and licked the tender flesh between her legs.

Dom had no idea that her sweet southern belle was this great at pleasuring anyone due to never having the chance to because of her toxic mutant power, but she was clearly enjoying every second of it as she ran her hands gently through Rogue's soft beautiful hair. "Oh yeah, Marie! You're so... fucking good at this! Oh yes!" She moaned as Rogue licked and sucked on her right nipple and played with the other one between her first and middle fingers while letting out some lustful moans herself before she switched between her girlfriend's breasts.

Rogue looked at her girlfriend with very lustful eyes before she kissed down Dom's body, getting to her stomach and licking her bellybutton, making the blue/grey skinned mutant sigh softly before Rogue gently spread her legs apart and lick Dom's thighs for a bit before proceeding to eat out her pussy while having her first and middle fingers inside her, making Dom moan as quietly as she could as she held Rogue's head down gently to keep her there.

"Oh yes, Marie! Oh I love this! Oh... fucking eat my pussy out, baby! Oh yeah!" She moaned out, making Rogue smile while she doubled her efforts to please her girlfriend.

After Domino had reached for climax, she would smile and laugh softly as Rogue had tenderly kissed the side of her neck and whispered softly. "You... were absolutely incredible."

Rogue smiled as she stated softly in a bit of disbelief. "I just can't believe it...My powers...they didn't kill you."

Dom stated while embracing her younger girlfriend in her arms. "I guess in a way...I'm immune to your powers, baby. The practice routine we have must certainly be helping with that. So now that I've become immune to the effects of your powers, you don't ever have to worry about killing me and we can do this whenever we want now."

Even though Rogue was overjoyed that her girlfriend/lover was now immune from her powers thanks to their practice routine...she stated softly. "Dom...what happened earlier today with Nitro."

The blue skinned mutant stated softly, as she knew what the brunette was going to say. "You don't have to say it, Marie...You're thinking about going back to your old team."

Rogue asked softly with a surprised look. "How did..."

Dom answered truthfully. "I saw the look you had on your face when Nitro asked us why we...were with the Brotherhood."

Rogue would state softly. "Dom, I'm sorry..."

The blue skinned mutant would reply softly. "You don't need to apologize, Marie. The truth is...I made a mistake joining them as well. The only reason I joined up with those idiots was because I had nowhere I could go after I stopped being a mercenary...and I actually thought we were fighting to stand up for other mutants who couldn't protect themselves. But after I saw how Quicksilver and the others treated Nitro...and how Quicksilver was simply using us to prove himself to Magneto...I knew that they were going way too far. Seems you were right about the Brotherhood making it hard for all mutants. "

Rogue stated softly, as she didn't want to lose her girlfriend and lover. "Dom...why don't you come with me to the X-Mansion. The X-Men are actually fighting to defend Mutants and to help humans understand us: to show them that we're not the enemy or the monsters that Senator Kelly is trying to paint us as. And...I don't wanna lose you."

Even though Dom was shocked at her girlfriend's proposal about becoming an X-Man...she knew that her words were true: especially since the X-Men and their vampire allies were trying to bring an end to the violence between Mutants and humans before it turned into all out war. "I...I don't know, Marie. But I don't wanna lose you either, I love you too much to lose you now."

Rogue then asked softly while looking into her girlfriend's beautiful blue eyes. "Would you at least think about it? At least for me, for us?"

Domino answered while planting a tender kiss on her lover's forehead and nose. "I'll think about it. I promise." Before laying her head down on her pillow to get some sleep for the night. "Good night, baby."

That answer made Rogue smile and she replied back as she laid her head down on her pillow as well. "Good night, love." Before the two lovers fell asleep while they both sighed in complete content, with Dom placing the bed sheet over them before they embraced closely in each other's arms.

There you go, my dear friends, Time Bomb is complete. Rogue and Domino have given themselves to each other and are starting to have doubts about whose side they're on, which will be crucial to a later episode that I feel should have ended very differently for Domino and Rogue both. Anyway, next will be the Future X episode, where Charles and Domino will learn more about each other and why they continue to fight. And after that, the Past Discretions episode. Rate and review and I'll see you all next time, my dear friends.
