The Return (Rogue/Alex/War/open)

(4 Days after War's current threads so he has time for some more posting before he leaves.)

Storm was here, she'd made it back to the school. She was a little banged up but she was back. Storm wanted to know what had happened, was everyone safe, how much had War done? Storm had heard nothing of the school while in captivity, and now she was here to protect it from
War, for the last few weeks that bastard had tortured Storm, he hadn't asked any questions, but she could feel him probing her mind, but Storm was strong and he hadn't gotten anything important.

As Storm walked up to the school she looked for signs of his destruction, but everything looked normal, maybe he hadn't come, maybe he hadn't made his move.

Rogue gasped in shock as she saw Storm on the driveway. She hadn't been seen in weeks. Without hesitation she ran out of Xavier's office, bolted out the front door, and right over to Storm. She flung her arms around Storm in a warm hug. She was so relieved to see her. Pulling away she looked over Storm. She looked like she had been through hell although Rogue didn't say this. She didn't want to upset Storm. What Rogue did know though was that she would have to update Storm on all that had happened and was happening. She really did not like the thought of doing that - she felt like such a failure - but she knew it had to be done. Rogue wrapped an arm around Storm, incase she needed help to walk. She knew the first thing they would have to do was take Storm down to the medical bay. Then, well, Rogue would have to update Storm on everything and she would have to find out what had happened with Storm. She had just disappeared.

"Storm! Thank god you're here. We've been so worried. You just disappeared... So much has happened... are you hurt?"

Storm smiled, it was good to see a familiar face, she hadn't seen Rogue in months. Storm winced as she walked over to Rogue, most of he wounds were minor but the bruise on her leg was aching.

Storm surveyed the situation, everything seemed fine, the school was running, but who was running it? Rogue looked stressed, frazzled, but unharmed, good the bastard hadn't hurt anyone yet.

"Rogue, it's so good to see you, my mission in Egypt took and unexpected turn, but I'm fine a little worse for wear, but I'll be fine. I need to talk to you, Alex, anyone who is available immediately."
