1 October 2003 - A present for Rogue

Joy and Michelle

Hank

Hank had a present for Rogue. He had a small cardboard gift box, all wrapped up. Inside, was what was once a Genoshen mutant inhibitor collar. He had worked on it for a while, altering it so that it looked like a choker necklace, and Rogue could take it off and put it on at will.

"Rogue, I have a gift for you," he said, grinning as he handed her the box.


Rogue

Rogue was all smiles as she accepted the present.

"Thank you!" she said.

She unwrapped it carefully, put the box down and pulled out the choker.

"Oh wow," she said. "It's pretty."


Hank

"It's a mutant power inhibitor, Rogue. It goes on and off like a necklace, but when you wear it, your powers will basically be short-circuted. In other words, you'll be free to touch whomever you want." Hank explained.


Rogue

Rogue's eyes widened.

"Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh!" She exclaimed. "Thank you so much!"

Rogue was so excited she couldn't put it on fast enough so she could give Hank a huge hug.


Hank

The large blue man hugged the smaller girl tightly.

"It was no problem, sweetie. I just want you to be happy," he said, smiling.
