I own NOTHING but the story idea!!!!!!

It was after midnight one warm summer evening at the Xavier's Institute for the Gifted. The teachers and students were all sound asleep in their rooms, exhausted after a long, hot day. At least, that's what everyone thought. In a single room, a girl with white streaked hair tossed and turned in her sleep, causing the thin sheet that covered her to fall off the bed. Rogue moaned as a horrifying nightmare unfolded in her mind, her pale ivory skin shining with sweat. Suddenly the girl shot up.

"NOOOOOO!" she cried, screaming bloody murder. The bedroom door slammed open as Wolverine ran in and towards the open window, claws unsheathed. Turning on the lights, Storm, Jean, and Kitty hurried to Rogue's side.

"Rogue are you like, okay?" asked Kitty, but she received no response from her friend.

"Chere?" came a familiar voice. Gambit quickly walked over, in only a pair of black sweatpants, to his girlfriend. The ex-thief had joined the x-men shortly after the fall of Apocalypse. He and Rogue had gotten together and she soon learned how to control her powers. Ororo and the other girls moved out of his way once he reached them. Sitting beside the upset girl, Remy lightly touched her arm. Seeing his face, she fell into his embrace and cried. Remy pulled her close to his bare chest and stroked her hair.

"Shh, y' be okay Chere," he murmured. Logan sheathed his claws and came over.

"What happened Stripes?" he asked gruffly. Rouge just shook her head. Just then the professor wheeled in with Kurt and Scott, who had gotten the other students to go back to bed.

"Vat is vrong, mien schwester?" asked Kurt. Kitty looked up.

"I think she like, had a nightmare or something," the professor glanced at Rogue.

"All of you, back to bed. Remy would you please stay for a few moments?" said Xavier. The others filed out and Logan shut the door.

"Now Rogue, let me see what happened," he asked a now calmer Rogue. Hesitantly she nodded.

'Okay, but please don't tell Remy. I don't want him to worry,' she mentally pleaded. He nodded and entered her mind.

The professor watched as her nightmare unfolded into a fight against Magneto, Sabortooth, Pyro, and the Brotherhood. The scene fast forwarded and Gambit could be seen leaning over and injured Rogue. The ex-thief was suddenly hit with a blast and knocked away. Rogue's scream was heard and the nightmare ended. Pulling out, the professor left Rogue's mind.
