90's Rogue And Gambit Novels & Stories

He cracked his knuckles, a subtle but chilling sound that echoed in the confined space. “Three against one? I guest i’m that strong for you to come to me all at once.” he said, his voice low and steady, laced with a confidence that sent shivers down my spine. “But mind you, You’ll regret this,” The first rogue lunged, claws bared and teeth gnashing. Zero sidestepped effortlessly, grabbing the rogue by the wrist and twisting it with a sickening snap. The rogue howled in pain, but Zero didn’t stop. He yanked the rogue forward, slamming his knee into the attacker’s gut before tossing him into a pile of trash bags like he weighed nothing.

Nolan’s eyes softened for the briefest moment before snapping back toward Rogue. “Show us,” he ordered. Rogue didn’t move. She only leaned against the wall, arms crossed, posture tense. “No,” she muttered. Nolan’s shoulders tensed. “Wrong answer.” “You’re not ready,” Rogue snapped back. “Neither of you. He’s.….” “I don’t care,” Nolan cut her off. “Move.” Rogue opened her mouth to argue again. She didn’t get the chance. Nolan moved swift, hard, and precise. One strike, two movements, and Rogue hit the ground with a heavy thud, unconscious before she even registered what happened.

The chessboard is live, and every piece, every move, every shadow, is under my control. I breathe in slowly, exhale. The night hums around me, the city alive with ordinary life that is anything but ordinary now. And I smile, sharp and small, the kind that promises inevitability. “Let’s see how they handle it,” I whisper to myself, and I know the countdown has begun. I’ve positioned my pieces, mapped the streets, infiltrated the lives. There’s no going back now. The settlement is my arena. And the war is already inside.

His grin was wide and humorless. “You’ve got fire, boy,” he said, his voice carrying. “But fire burns out fast when you’re surrounded.” Lucas didn’t move. His jaw clenched. “Try me.” The wiry rogue stood too, circling like a predator testing the air. “So brave. Or so stupid.” The tallest rogue tapped the edge of his glass against the table before setting it down with care. His eyes were cold when they locked with Lucas’s. “You’ll regret stepping into our business.”

Slow drops of rain kept hitting me and the weight of laying down was all over me. The hard smell of smoke and woods filled my nose as I slept there,but when my eyes opened all that I could see were tall woods. Where was I ? The question went into my head and the next moment I got my answer. Last night after the festivals my father tried to have me killed and I somehow managed to escape with the rogue Alpha. The rogue Alpha, the moment I thought of him, I snapped and got up but the adrenaline shot through me and forced me back on the floor.

“Oh. Umm, on a different topic there’s a question I’ve been wanting to ask you. Why don’t you like rogues?” Tyler lets out a large sigh. “Three years ago, there was a large rogue attack on Moonfang. My parents left to go fight, and were killed during the fighting. I was forced to step up and become Alpha at the age of seventeen. I couldn’t even finish high school properly. I had to attend online classes. I also had to attend college virtually. There are so many things that my parents will never get to see. I hate rogues because whenever I see one, I am reminded of what was taken from me.” Tyler falls silent and stares at his plate. “I understand,” I say softly. Tyler looks up quickly. “Rogue

I say, but as I climb to my feet I hear a grunt and glance over my shoulder to see Val in a brawl with a rogue almost twice her size. “Val, your blind spot!” I cry as I see a rogue stalk from the trees towards her back. I run to her but I can tell I won’t be quick enough. Her gun is on the ground, forgotten, and the knife at her belt will be useless if she doesn’t pull it free quickly. “You’re knife, Val!” I scream. “I’ve got this!” Val yells, her eyes wild as she takes her eyes off the rogue to glare at me, causing her guard to come down enough that the rogue towering over her lifts her up by the neck of her jacket and hurls her against the nearest tree.

I objected at first, but then I listened to his explanation. "I assure you, as someone who was a rogue for years, that placing land mines on the territory will be successful. I've witnessed numerous pack wars, many employing land mines to secure victory. Doing that will leave them completely unprepared; it's a surprise attack. Those Rogues lack intelligence; they consistently follow Cairo's plans. Acting like he had power over them, he filled their heads with nonsense, but I could see right through him; Cairo is all bark and no bite.” Gavin says.

To bad he would not be able to help me escape, he must be loyal to his Alpha or he would be kicked out of the pack and end up turning rogue. Which meant no leader and other packs kill rogue on sight due to their lawlessness and no loyalty. They are like rodents eating your vegetables in the garden. No one liked rogues. Funny enough that is what I was, my brother and parents. We had to leave our pack behind because of Alpha Keeram, many packs feared him. Unfortunately mine was one of them, my Alpha Jake feared him so much so, that he was going to hand me over like a present. That's why we had no other choice but to go rogue and hide.

“And of course, you don’t want to mark me because you don’t want to take your throne back.” “I don’t know what I want to do yet. I have no support. No army. It’s not that easy.” “What about these rogues Monty spoke about? What is a rogue anyway?” “A rogue is a packless wolf. It’s not that easy. Rogues aren’t warriors. By the time I have them trained and ready for a war, Caspian would know and we’d all be dead. Well, not you and me…we’d only wish we were dead.”
