Rogue's head snapped back and she fell backwards, stumbling as she tried to keep her feet. She ran a hand across her mouth and felt her cracked lip. "Toady, ya gonna regret that."
He said something, some whiny complaint about him being innocent. She'd heard it before. Everyone was innocent. He'd wait till she showed mercy or pity and stab her in the back.
The only thing was - he seemed to be taking this like she had a personal vendetta against him. Poor kid didn't realize this was her job.
And she was good at it.
She notched her fist back, her knuckles cracking. She aimed for his scrawny ribs.

Toad coughed up a large amount of sticky saliva when she punched him it flew straight towards her face, he held a hand to his ribs "Far out you sure pack one hell of a puch you..you facist!" he hopped back a metre.
He flung his tongue at her feet and tried to coil it around them hoping to pull them out from under her, it could end up her stepping on his tongue which would be quite painful. Toad was thinking of the hundred ways this could go wrong some people may have said he was a terrible pesimist it was quite obvious he wasn't an optimist. He had forgotten about the shadowy figure who had taken the bullet for where had he gone.

Rogue was busy trying to peel the goo off her face, she never saw the snaky tongue wrap around her ankles. She was yanked off her feet, flying down at the pavement and landing on her butt. She poked enough of a hole into the saliva so she could breath.
"Thanks," She hissed at his awkward compliment, "Watch mah next trick, warts."
Rogue yanked her hand out of her glove and reached for the green coil of flesh around her feet. This little termite was putting up more fight than she'd expected.

He was shocked how could she around his tongue he yelled "Warts, I don't have warts!" he didn't even notice the hand reaching for his tongue.
She grabbed it he was felling a little drained, he launched at her his feet out in a kicking form he would rearrange her pretty little face till it resembled something like her stepmother when she was drunk.
Sam better be safe after what he was going through right now he had almost wished he had kept running with her he could have been out of the country in hours safe from the fascist dictatorship that Magneto had created. Rogue was good at fighting there was no doubt about it but he was going to kill her for causing such a problem as this.
He closed his eyes and waited for the impact where he would pull his tongue back into his mouth and hop back a little. All he hoped was that he would either kill her or get away before the backup arrived.

The drain tingled through her flesh and ached in her head. She felt his agility loosen her limbs and her mouth went slick
Gross. Rogue thought.
Sudden the mutant released his hold, and kicked at her. She went flying. Rogue smacked into a wall, but using her new abilities, she was able to minimize the impact by bouncing on her feet. Peeling the last remnant of saliva from her face, she turned around.
For a second, she was disorientated. Looking at Toad, suddenly felt like looking in a mirror. Her head pounded with the uncertain refrain of Sam my daughter - protect - kill - escape...
This had happened to her before. A sudden understanding and sympathy for her victims. It just had never been so strong.
Rogue pulled her hands into fists and gritted her teeth. "Go quickly, Toynbee, before Ah change mah mind."

Toad was confused "What aren't you risking your life Rogue, Magneto will rip you in two for letting an enemy of the state go." he was almost completely and utterly baffled.
He stepped back a couple of times before stopping "Rogue one question, why? Don't you wish for equality?" he knew he did, the day his daughter could walk the streets and feel safe was the day he would be happy.
If Rogue actually gave up on him he would return to the apartment and retrieve his daughter and tell the rebels to leave because Rogue probably knew where they were and be at the boarder by midnight. Although it would be hard to start again but it would be easier there then to stay here, the police here knew what he looked like now.

"If we stay and yak about it," Rogue was hardly surprised that her expressive accent had been replaced by the lazy British slang of Toynbee's youth. "Then you're not going to get a bloody head start? Do you understand?"
Rogue reached up for her head and the delicate tips of her nails embedded themselves in her temple. "Get out of mah head! Ah have a duty!" She jerked again and using all of her self control, she held back from throttling the mutant. "Run! For Sam!"

Toad didn't ask any more questions after that, he ran fast up the wall infact jumping to the other side of the street then jumping across the road and diving through his lofts window. He yelled at the resistence to leave and head for the sewers, as they rushed out he grabbed Sam from the woman who was minding her. Mortymer was worried more so then he had ever been this world was unravelling, fast he just didn't want to be in the cross fire not one bit but he felt a duty to be. He decided there and then once he got Sam to her relatives in Canada he would be back to bring down this facist dictatorship.
When all the people were gone from his loft he packed food for Sam, he would go without no sooner had he finished packing he was on the roof well on the roof of his building at the moment within seconds he would be on another roof and so on till he reached the country side. He took one last look at Rogue he felt sorry for her when he was back she would be in trouble cause he'd bring friends.

Later...
Rogue bathed her temples, scratches from her nails stung as she applied the ant-septic she'd found in her medkit. She scowled as she saw her green eyes had dulled to look more like Toynbee's.
He was still lurking in the dark recesses of her mind. A snarky comment here, a silent whisper there. He wasn't stupid and he wasn't going away quickly.
Rogue snapped the washcloth down on the sink and turned.

Somewhere in Canada, much later....
Toad dropped into see him from time to time and his visits were always a high light of Nightcrawler's year, this time it would not be so Toad flew in through the cave entrance "Mien got I really have to block zat off," he said in jest "So Toad vhat brings you here?"
Kurt was always delighted to see Samantha "Oh and you brought ze baby girl vhen iz her birthday?" he had plenty of presents to give the two year old.
His swords hung idly on their holder above his fireplace he still practiced with them he just wished there was still the Xmen so he had back-up to use them on the bad guys. He knew he'd have to use them soon.

Toad placed a hand on Kurt's shoulder "You know when 'er birthday is Kurt." he thumped Kurt on the shoulder playfully.
He took a seat next to Kurt and waved at the rebels who sat about the place working towards their goal these were the strategists. Kurt had volunteered his home and base for them since his team had been killed by S.H.I.E.L.D in Russia, he was a really nice guy. Toad placed Sam down on the lounge "So Kurt is it alright if I leave Sam here while we go and take down S.H.I.E.L.D?"people gasped this was unheard of they were waiting on more heroes to surface and help in the rebellion.
He grabbed Kurt's swords off the wall and flung them in his direction he looked at the crew that had been assembled in the cave complex and smiled, S.H.I.E.L.D wouldn't know what hit them.
Team:
Toad
Nightcrawler
Cyclops (NPC)
Black Panther(NPC)
The Human Torch(NPC)

He grabbed his swords as they were falling through the air, a smile appeared on Kurt's "Zis iz vhat I've been vaiting for." it was time to take it to Magneto and S.H.E.I.L.D.
The crew had assembled and were anxious to get started Cyclops was being cautious as per usual wanting to go over the plan once more after the tenth time but Johnny burnt the page where the plans were written "Oops." he smiled.
Scott glared at him from under his glasses and grunted "Lets go." they walked down to the hanger it was a good thing he had handed Rogue the wrong map all those years ago otherwise they would have been attacked long ago.
The jet flew out across the boarder into American airspace and sped on towards Toad's loft from there they would coordinate their attack where they would hopefully kill Magneto and his elite guard. If not they would retreat back to Canada and rethink their plan, if they made it back.
