Ok, guys, All the disclaimers apply, that means all thanks goes to Marvel for the X-Men, I'm just making the story. And I do read all the other stories, and they're great, keep up the good work. They inspire me!

Chapter 28: Inconclusive

" Lilandra, I am certain that your generosity is most comforting." Charles Xavier said, looking over at Lilandra.

" It is the least I can do after everything you and your team did for me." Lilandra smiled.

Charles looked out of the window of the ship, " They need me." he said.

" They need you?" Lilandra asked, " How can you know that?"

" It is a feeling." Charles smirked politely, " I have done some things that I regret. My own grandson has every right to be angry at me."

" Why would he do that?" Lilandra asked.

" I modified his memories so that he would join the school, unaware of what the truth was. I have done worse, but it is the thing that I feel I should rectify." Charles said in a daze.

" Too bad, I was hoping you would stay." Lilandra smiled, " But, if it has to be done..."

" There shall be a very hell fire type situation on Earth." Charles said.

" Because he wields the Phoenix?" Lilandra asked.

" No." Charles smiled, " Because they are one. Do you remember the news of Galactus on Earth?" Lilandra nodded, " There is one thing that could eject him from Earth, and that would be my grandson."

Lilandra sighed, " There is one, a herald. If he has made contact with this 'herald' of Galactus, then his powers..."

" Excuse me, Princess Lilandra, but we're under attack!" A guard said, rushing in.

Lilandra looked from Charles to the guard, " Who is attacking us?!" she asked.

I stood outside, watching the sky. There was a particular sparkle in the sky and I thought back to my dilemma. I was pregnant. The how and why are still fuzzy, but what can I do? Give it up? NO! That's not...I didn't ask for this baby, but it's my baby. I don't know who else's baby this is, but it's mine. Would be nice to know whose DNA is mixed with mine to make this...kid. Oh my god, a kid. I'm a kid, and I'm having a kid. My mom's gonna freak! Hell, I'm freaking! I...

" Hey." a voice said behind me. I turned to see Scott walking up to me, " How are you?"

" Since about twenty minutes ago?" I asked sarcastically, " Sorry. It's..."

" The hormones, I know." Scott said, staring out into the distance.

" So, how'd she take it?" I asked.

" Your mom? Before or after she passed out?" he chuckled. I did too and he continued, " She's coming here. We explained the situation and..." he continued.

" I'm gonna have to tell her the truth." I said indifferently, " Just in time for Mother's day."

Scott just stared at me, then looked at what I was looking at, " So, have your powers came back?" he asked.

" No." I said simply, " I'm thinking this was punishment."

" For what?" Scott asked with a raised eyebrow.

" For letting everything fall to pieces." I said, looking at his confused face, " I let you and most of the team leave. I started to fall for someone who couldn't possibly be my future, I let Magneto bring his bad luck, and the world almost ended."

" But we're back now." Scott smiled.

" Are you?" I said sarcastically, " I don't know how much I can put into us right now. I don't know how long it's gonna take me to get back to us, either." I said.

" I understand." Scott said, " Hank still hasn't come up with any answers, the test should come out later."

" I didn't know that you could do a DNA test before the baby is born." I said, looking back at him.

" This is Hank. Anything's possible." Scott said with enthusiasm.

Scott made to touch my hand, but I moved it.

" Ok, been here before." Scott chuckled.

" I just...You know that if I touch you, I have that 'Rogue' condition." I said softly, " Does Hank know anything about that?"

" No. Though the Fantastic Four have a theory. They're coming to help with the testing." Scott said.

" They know. I mean, Johnny knows? I know that Peter knows, and I assumed that Harry knows, but..." I trailed.

" What about Logan?" Scott asked.

" He knows, right?" I asked.

" No, I mean about you and him dating." Scott said, shocking me, " It's not hard to see the chemistry between you two. I was kinda shocked too."

" sorry you found out that way, I just...it's not a full dating thing. More like a future dating thing." I smiled.

" And Julian?" he asked.

I sighed and smiled at him, " How do you know all this?" I asked.

" People talk." Scott smiled, looking at his watch, " I've got a class to teach, so I'll see you later. Need anything before I go?" he asked.

" No." I smiled.

Scott bent down and touched my stomach, " See you after class." he smiled. I nodded and he left.

" Well that made me throw up." Logan said, causing me to stare over at him.

I turned to see Logan.

" Hey, kid." Logan said.

" Logan." I said quickly, " Kid? What did I tell you about..."

Logan ignored me and touched my stomach, " I meant hi..er" he stammered.

" Call it it." I said.

" Somebody's pissed." Logan smirked, " What's with you?"

" I'm pregnant...see a problem with that?" I asked.

" Not particularly." Logan said.

I chuckled.

" See, slim ain't tha only one that can put a smile on your face." Logan said.

" No, I didn't meant to...it's the baby. The hormones. I wish that..." I stopped.

" What? Say it." Logan said.

" This baby is not something...I lost my powers, my ability to touch people, my sanity, and my sex drive." I said.

" But you're gainin...wait, you're sex drive, you sure?" he asked.

" Pretty sure." I said.

Logan was silent, " All of it?" he asked.

" YES!" I shouted, " Yes. I just feel so naked. What happens if I really need them?"

" Maybe then you'll trust yourself." Logan smiled. The bell rang, " You should go. I mean, you don't teach every class, you're gonna be late."

I hugged him.

" I'm here, not just if the baby's mine..." Logan said.

I looked at him, " Thanks." I said, rushing off to class.

In class, Ororo was talking about History. Today it was the history of some rare flower that, in the last few days, had become extinct. I wasn't paying attention. usually there were more interesting topics, like Civil Rights and things, but Ororo was serious lacking lately. Even she had become somewhat uncontrollable...her powers amplified by some mysterious force. One day she had caused a tsunami and there was no water! I had all but given up on her class...something was seriously going on and I had half a mind to ask her in front of the whole class, but apparently I wasn't the only one.

" So, why are you teaching us this? I mean, I heard that there's some major thing going on and the X-Men are pulling double duty." Kevin, a.k.a. Wither asked.

The whole class looked at him, then at Ororo, waiting for an explanation.

" Thank you Kevin." Ororo said, holding back what she really wanted to say, " I believe you are referring to rather large group of...we aren't sure what they are, but whatever they are seem to wipe out the places they head. Such as downtown Russia and in the walls of China."

" Why do we think it'll hit us?" Kitty asked.

" Because, it is attacking the major mystical and mutant forces." Ororo explained.

" So, the next would be New York?" Bobby asked.

" Yes. Recieved a transmission saying that in fourty-eight hours, the world and X-Men would fall and that was fourty-five hours ago." she further explained.

" Are you saying that in three hours the world might be another...um, rare flower?" I asked.

" That is exactly what I'm saying." Ororo said.

" Then why aren't you trying a bit harder?" Julian asked.

" We are, we have our finest on it." Ororo said, " Note the abundance of subs."

" Why are you in here?" Bobby asked.

" I would be less useful in the technocological aspect of such a mission." Ororo smiled, " But I am ready to do what I can."

" Mainly kick some ass?" Kevin asked.

Ororo chuckled.

I felt a twinge...something that I wasn't supposed to know, " There's something you're not saying." I said.

Ororo looked at me, " Pane, are you alright?" she asked.

" Ororo, if the world's ending, you should enlighten us." I said.

" Ms. Munroe and we believe this to be the work of the Shi'Ar." she confessed.

There were gasps and even one from me. I hadn't seen that coming at all. Then again, I hadn't seen myself having a baby either. I felt sick all of a sudden and I rose from my seat and ran out of the room! As I hit the hall, I found myself face to face with Johnny and Sue Storm, but as I stood in front of them, I threw up on Johnny's shoes.

" OH!I just got these cleaned." Johnny said, surveying his shoe.

" Sorry, this baby in me, see, it doesn't care." I snapped.

Sue and Johnny looked at me, then at each other.

" Sorry, it's just that I...it's not important. Are you okay?" he asked.

" I just threw up on your shoe." I said, staring at him.

Sue chuckled, " I remember that." she smiled.

" You remember what? Him being an ass? I don't." Johnny sneered.

" The mood swings." Sue said, " Don't mind him, he's a little new at dealing with someone who isn't pregnant."

" I'm sorry too. That just shot out, I'd kill for the Phoenix about now." I sighed.

" You still don't have powers?" he asked.

" I miss them. If I had 'em, everything in this room would be floating and there'd be a huge storm going on." I ranted, " Now, I'm mildly menacing...gonna kick ass with my dazzling personality and my non-touchable skin...I am Rogue. Meanwhile, Rogue had to get away, apparently she can hear thoughts." I frowned.

" That's what we came to tell you, sexy." Johnny smiled, " The Surfer, when he touched you, for a while after you were touched, whoever you touched got your powers..." he explained, " It was supposed to be temporary."

" But due to the Phoenix-like thing you got going on, it's lasting longer than it should. Or it could be due to your prolonged exposure to him." Sue explained.

I looked at her in realization, " It was transferred through power...Rogue was right next to me...who else? Ororo? She must have gotten my elemental powers! That's why she's been loopy and uncontrolled." I frowned.

" So, did furry blue guy find out who's..." Johnny started, but I shook my head, " You know, Reed could have found out like that." he said, snapping and causing a flame to spark. He looked at me and I chuckled, then he looked at me, " Do you think he'll be able to do that?"

" I don't know. I don't really have time to ask myself things like that, the world's ending again." I said.

" You're not...you're not going to be in on this, are you?" Sue asked.

" I planned on it, why?" I asked.

" You're pregnant." she said.

" And you're blonde, but I didn't say anything to you." I spat, " Sorry, but I don't see the difference in my before and me now."

Johnny lifted his shoes, " This is killing me, but I'm not sure it'll do much in the way to save you from people trying kill me." he said.

The bell rang.

" That's me. I need to get back to class. I'm teaching it." I smiled.

Suddenly, Johnny kissed me passionately, causing him to whimper and the veins in his face began to show and I pulled back.

" Now that's a kiss." he smirked.

I smirked and walked the opposite direction.

" See you later!" he yelled, turning and walking with Sue.

After my class, I found myself in my room with achy feet and...very, very short temper. I laid on my bed, trying not to cry, but when I moved, I felt something crunch. I flipped on the light switch and saw that my room had become the new home of a few dozen roses. I found the card on one of the roses and opened it, apparently it was from Harry...he is sweet. Before I could comment or quip, there was a knock at the window. I walked to the window and saw Peter, in civilian clothes, hanging from the tree outside. I opened the window and he hopped in.

" Hey, how...are you?" he asked, looking around, " I got you a flower, but..." he said, handing me a white rose.

I smiled and hugged him, " Thanks. It's the best present I've gotten all day." I smirked.

Peter smiled and rubbed my stomach, " How is the baby?" he asked.

" More trouble than it's worth." I said quickly.

Peter frowned up at me, " what's wrong?" he asked.

" Nothing...maybe it's post-partum." I joked.

" That's post, meaning after." Peter corrected, " Still bummed about your powers?"

" Yeah, but..." I stopped.

" The whole world?" he asked.

" Yeah...if this is your baby, how are you gonna tell Aunt May?" I asked.

" Like I do everything else." Peter said.

I nodded, " You're lucky I can't touch you or I'd be all over you." I smirked.

" That's luck? I'd rather be unlucky." he chuckled.

There was a knock on the door.

" What is it?" I shouted at the door.

" There's trouble. We need everyone to fight, are you gonna be okay to?" Scott asked.

I walked to the door and wrenched it open, " Scott, what's going on?" I asked.

" They're here." he said with a very grim face. He looked past me, " Peter."

Peter sighed, " Scott."

" Lilandra, are we approaching Earth?" Professor asked.

" Yes, but Charles...there's something. My ship has records of attacking Earth on more than a dozen times." Lilandra said in confusion.

" How can that be?" Charles asked.

" That would be me, dear sister." Deathbird smiled, her guards backing her, " Your rule is over...again."

Lilandra and Charles Xavier just stared as Deathbird assumed the role. She and her army had attacked Earth and the Shi'Ar in attepmt to rule everything and this time, it might actually work. Charles was quite aware of what was happening and he felt a familiar signature, but a telepath.

Charles <Rogue!>

Rogue <Professor?>

Charles <There is no time, you have to go and help the X-Men, we are on our way to Earth as we speak.>

I stood beside Logan and Scott, waiting for the eventual rush of the fight. Scott nodded to me and I nodded back, then Logan squeezed my gloved hand. I looked down, trying to sort through the things that had happened and came to one memory.

  • I rushed to the lab, only to find. I knew that this was the moment of truth. What was going to be revealed was going to be revealed now. I rushed into the lab to see Scott, Peter, Harry, Johnny, and Logan already there. I looked at them uncertainly ...they already knew.

" What is it? What is the results?" I asked eagerly.

Hank gulped and looked at me, " I have found that..." he paused and looked at Scott.

" What?" I asked, looking between all of them.

"...The test was inconclusive. So I did another one." he finished.

" And." I asked.

" Scott is the father." Hank said.

I smiled, " That's not bad, then..." I asked.

" ...And Logan. And Johnny. And Mr. Parker and Mr. Osborn." Hank said quickly. He walked to the door, " I think I should leave you alone." he said, leaving.*

I looked from the ground up at the army of super soldiers running at us. I breathed in and looked up and saw Harry and Johnny hovering above us and looked over to the line behind me, where Peter stood, ready to fight and I let go of Scott and Logan's hand, brandishing my new sais.

" Everyone ready?" Scott asked.

Everyone nodded and I twirled my sais, running, with the rest of the group, at the opposing group.
