Remy Labeau paced the floor of the Med Bay at the Xaiver’s School for the Gifted. The only reason he came to Westchester was for Rogue. She was the girl he loved, and she was in dire straights. It had been only a few hours, but Rogue had not awakened yet, and it was starting to make Remy nervous.

“Rogue, why you do dis t’Remy? Just wake up, dat’s all I want. Can’ ya do dat for Remy?” She didn’t stir, and that made him more nervous than anything else did. “What ya be doin’ up dere, aye?”

“Ya alright, darling?”

“Yes,” she said. “I just wasn’t prepared for that.”

“So, what’s goin’ on wit Rogue?” Remy asked.
