All comes crumbling down

Mar 25, 2007 14:27

Rogue's been a little lost lately, trying to come to terms with all the warring thoughts and ideas in her head. Finally she gets a chance to help mutants and prove to herself that violence isn't the only answer but in the end, it all crumbles down before her and she does the only thing she can think of.

( Or how Rogue comes to join the Brotherhood )

"Anna?"

Erik strained to hear her, over the noise. He was in a bar, in Prague, watching the coverage from Paris. He heard what she said--at least, he thought she did. Standing up, he threw a few bills down on the table to pay for his coffee and went outside, where he had less chance of being overheard. "My dear. Calm down. Tell me what you mean."

"I. They're dead. They're all dead. What the hell is the point in even trying to find a safe place to live when." She shrank against the phonebooth, berating herself for forgetting her coat. Her white locks were clear for everyone to see and she held her breath, thankful when the officer walked by, talking to his partner.

She held her breath, watching them round the corner before continuing.

"When people are out there hurting us. How will we ever be safe? We can't. They were kids, Erik--Magneto. They just wanted a place to live. That's all."

Erik closed his eyes. He hated that her acceptance finally came at such a terrible price. "I promise you, Rogue," he said firmly, using her mutant name. "We will make the world safe for mutants. No matter the cost. I promise you, Rogue. We will have vengeance for this atrocity."

He could feel his adrenaline rushing. Erik began to pace. "Where are you? I need you to come to Prague. Everyone is on their furlough, however, so I cannot send someone for you. You'll need a way to get here that is untraceable."

"I'm in Italy. I can be untraceable, Er--Magneto. Where..." She hesitated, looking around, trying to see if anyone was listening. "Where in Prague?" she asked, keeping her voice low.

He gave her the location of his hotel, where he was staying in Prague. "Come here. If you can. We'll talk. Be careful, Rogue."

Erik clicked off the call and headed back to his hotel. This was going to be interesting. And difficult.

He saw his reflection, in the glass of a storefront window. He was smiling.
