Chapter Five
"Any change in her memory?" Scott asked as Hank walked into the Rect room. "She seems to be remembering Gambit and she recalls feelings. She thinks she was a horrible person." he said as he looked at each of the other X-men's faces. "She outta be feeling guilty over what she did. She nearly killed us all." Logan said "Wolverine she wasn't herself. Sinster messed with her mind just like he did mine." Morph said. "But that was different--" wolverin started to say but morph quickly interrupted him. "Why is it different because I'm you're friend and she's the child of Magneto? She is nothing like him she's caring and sweet. What happened to her was not her fault. what she did wasn't her fault. You can't hold that against her." he said as he walked out of the room. "Morph's right. She can't be held responsble for what she did under Sinster's contorl." Jean said "I still don't trust her." Wolverine said as he stomped out of the room "He'll come around." Professor said. "I hope so because without All of our help Jessica won't make it through this in once piece." Jean said She leaned into Gambit's touch. It felt so right yet so strange. She closed her eyes as a small tear slid down her cheek. "Ah Chere don y' go and cry now. You not a bad person." Gambit said as he pulled her toward him. "But i hurt you and the others so badly and I can't remember who i am. I must have been a horrible person." she cried as Gambit strocked her head. "No Chere you just have someone mess wit Y'er head dat's all." he said "Then why do you all hate me so much? Why can't i remember anything?"she cried as he put her into her bed and laid down beside her. "It gonna be okay Chere." he said She soon cried herself to sleep. Gambit found his self falling asleep holding her in his arms. Whatever was going on with her her memory would come back and she would know what happened and why. Jessica a woke to the sound of someone walking into her room. She opened her eyes to see someone standing over her. She was startled and jerked away from the person. "It's okay relax i won't hurt you. i'm a friend." he said "Who are you?" she asked "The names Morph. We were close friends." he said "It seems like i was everyones friend." she said as she sat up. "You were...still are." he said "Then why did i hurt the man I love as well as the rest of you?" she said "It wasn't your fault. Sisnter was contorling your mind. He made you do things you wouldn't normally do." Morph said "Are you saying he contorled my mind?" she asked "Yes. The samething happened to me a long time ago." he said "How did you get back to yourself?" she asked " You helped me. You and Wolverine. You two were the best friends i could ever have. Niether of you gave up on me nor did you let me give up on myself." he said "Wait a sec. i remember there was this cave of some sort...And you were there in a cage as well as the rest. Then Gambit was there. He was holding my arm I was falling over something....He pulled me over back onto stable ground.... Then someone yelled for help. and he left me...Then some guy the guy from the house i was in before....He came after me i tried to run away from him, but i slid off the edge. Gambit left me for someone else and then Sinster saved me from falling. Gosh! I'm so confused! I'm not sure what's real and what's not!" she cried as Morph comforted her. " You were right. Only thing is Gambit thought you were behind him he had your hand while he was going to save Rogue and then he let go so he could fight. The next thing he knew Sinster ahd grab you and was pushing you over the edge. He couldn't get to you. We thought that you had died. Then you came back and tricked us into going to Sisnter's Island where you had disappeared on us. You tried to kill us, but then something happened and you back off when you did you passed out. Sinster grab you and picked you as he fled. We sreached for you for days, but Jean couldn't find anything of your mind nor could the professor. You were lost to us again." he said. he knew he was leaving out the part were she had told Gambit she didn't love him that she was only using him. She would remember that on her own. "I remeber that." she said. "Anything else you remember?" a voice from the door way asked Both Morph and Jessica turned to see who it was who had walked in.
