"Listen," he said, not able to keep the pride out of his voice. "I... I'm sorry about the poison ivy thing. I was just tryin' to give y' rash. tryn' t' be tough. This... big.. hair bato grabs me fresh offa boat, and drags me here, tells me I'm gonna be hermanistad, brotherhood. I got no clue what he's talkin' bout. Listen, from what I gather, you don't live here, but you live wit' other mutantes. an' I think you can understand someone wanting NOT to live aqui. basically what I'm saying is, can you get me out of here?"

She raised an eyebrow as he spoke. It wasn't entirely unlike the Brotherhood to grab someone fresh off of the boats. But something didn't seem right about the whole thing. She'd seen the pictures in the briefing room, she knew that he knew about the institute. Why was he playing it like he just took an educated guess at her living with other mutants?
She smiled, looking genuine. Time to see if he was telling the truth. "Naw, hon. Ah live here. With mah family. Mah momma, Mystique. This is mah room." She opened the door again.

"I heard you down there," He said. she was calling his bluff. "I was in the room when you yelled at that... that..." he rattled off some very angry sounding words in spanish, none were polite enough to be put here, and they were all focused on Mystique. "Listen, I'll come clean, they were wanting me to sneak into your institute or whatever it is. I was going along hoping to just ditch them after leaving. I don't like these people Roja. No me gusta nada."

"It's Rogue. And if you're lying to me, Ah'll have a good time thinkin' up new and creative ways to kill you. Just because Ah'm one of the 'good guys,' it don't mean that Ah can't still enjoy destroying you." It was a lie, she'd feel horrible, but Moss didn't know that, now did he?
She walked back into her room and gestured for him to follow. She didn't want to be out of reach in case Gambit woke up.
"So Sabretooth grabbed you up, huh?" Might as well make small talk, see if he slipped up.

"Si," he answered, sounding relieved. "I came here to get away from this 'Us vs. Them' mentality everyone in the neighborhood seemed to have."

"Which us you talkin' about? There's all kinds of 'us" these days. Take Emma here for example. Ah'm an us, she's a them. Them being cold hearted whores, that is."
She smiled sweetly at Emma, still angry about her earlier mental probing.

"Mutantes again's humans," he clarified. "mi Madre tol' me be proud of you, but remember you ain' no better than yo' neighbor." he thought for a moment and added, "Mi Madre y mi Abuela are humans. they raised me." he allowed a misty expression to drift across his face as he thought of them. he really did love his family.

"Well this ain't exactly th' best place to go to get away from that kind of thinkin', sugar."
She looked over at Emma, who seemed to be lost in her own world somewhere, and shrugged.
Picking up one of the playing cards from earlier, she tried to charge it and found that the power was very hard to tap into. Turning around, she warned the two, "He's gonna be wakin' up soon."

She felt like she had just been blown up. Again. She tried to collect her thoughts, and remember what had happened. She was...still with Remy... and... his little friend had done something... what was it? She groaned, satisfied to see that she still had control over Remy's body. Might as well play the part.
"Dieu... what de hell just happened?" Looking around, Mary realized that she was in a place that she'd never seen before, but that had a familiarity in it's architecture... the metal. It was like the base that she'd been captured in in Antarctica, with Erik the Red. She looked around the room. there were three faces, two of which she didn't recognize.
"Chere... who are dose two? Where de hell did y' take Remy?"

She raised an eyebrow. Remy had met Emma countless times before. Which could only mean that Remy wasn't Remy.
<Emma... It's not really him. Play along, don't let her know we're on to her.>
She shouted it mentally, knowing that the Telepath would most likely pick it up. Sitting down on the bed, she put a gloved hand on Remy's head.
"It's ok, Sugar. This is mah old home. You're gonna be alright. We're gonna get rid of that nasty green thing."

Mystique walked in and grabbed Rogue's arm, pulling her into the hallway.
"It's time for you to help us, since we're helping you."
"Momma, Y'all ain't helped me at all yet."
"The device only works when the person is conscious."
"Well, he's awake now. Go at it."
"I will take care of him, go to the briefing room. You are to accompany Magneto on a mission."
Mystique held up the small device. "Trust me."

Rogue sighed. She didn't like it, but she didn't really have much of a choice.
"If you hurt him, know that Ah will kill you. Without hesitation."
She walked off towards the briefing room, as Mystique walked into her bedroom.
((Rogue heads to the briefing room))

<She has a certain...debt to repay. Magneto is taking her to liberate a prison. As for the filth on the bed, we have to strap this to him, get rid of the...thing that is posessing him.>
She tossed the containment device to the other woman.
< You take the left, I'll take the right.>
She moved towards the bed and gestured for Emma to follow on the other side.
"Gambit, this device will help to regulate your body. We did some tests, and you're not going too well. This will allow us to monitor you more easliy."
<Total BS, you know... but he surely lacks the mental capacity to pick up on it.> She cast Emma a knowing glance.
