Summary
Rogue believes isolation is the key to controlling her mutation, but is she really as alone as she thinks?
Excerpt:
She started to pack up her painting supplies, singing softly under her breath.
"Summertime...and the livin' is easy...fish are jumpin'...and the cotton is high...oh, your daddy's rich...and your momma's good lookin'...so hush little baby...don't you — holy hell!"
She jumped, the palette falling from her hands. A man was standing amongst the trees, just... watching her.
She blinked, at first thinking that she must be imagining things. He was so still, almost invisible among the tree trunks. Then the frozen shock gave way to a hot rush of anger. No one was supposed to be here. No one. Xavier owned the land for miles around.
"Hey!" she called out angrily, taking a few steps forward.
She saw his eyes widen as he stumbled a step backwards. For some reason, his startled response made her anger spike even higher.
"Hey, you!" she yelled. And then he was... just gone, melting away into the forest as if he had never been there.
