Sure enough, the latter was a cold blooded killer of mutants. He was pure Evil, but the way the handsome Russian man spoke to him...it shocked the southern belle to no end.<br/>When she joined the X-men Piotr had been a senseative artist, a romantic, who only used force when he needed to. Marie had a crush on him back in her early days, but when it became clear he was the love of Kitty Pryde she tempered those feelings. She transferred them for a short period to Longshot, only to have him choose Dazzler over her. And then of corse there was Gambit, Remy Le Beau, who broke her heart once too oftern.<br/><br/>Her other *Love* had been Magneto, a man old enough to be her grandfarther yet with his rapid ageing process looked about 40.<br/>But despite having brief physical connections with both Gambit and Erik, it was safe to say both men were out of her life.<br/>Piotr curse, he never cursed as she remembered it, and he dismissed Logan (a man who loved him like a brother) as no friend of his.<br/>That saddened Anna a great deal and she realised how changed her friend was. He had died, come back to life, been transformed into the Juggernaut and then the Phoenix, how could he possible be the same sweet man she knew?<br/><br/>Bastion left, basically telling them he was going to cut them open and soon.<br/>He told her to stand back and she did, watching him harness the Crimson Gem and change into Juggernaut, it was a shocking sight.<br/>The rage that he felt, she once touched Cain Markio in battle and it took her weeks to shake off that in herit anger. Piotr smashed through the wall which was separating them and now towered over the Southern Beauty. He asked if anything ellse needed smashing and Rouge simply took hold of his arm and looked up at him. "Honey, what you said about Logan....he is youre team-mate....he is youre friend...we all are..."<br/>What she was saying was, they understood the Phoenix Possession farce and he was long since forgiven for it, as was his Sister.<br/>Scott and Emma however had much more to answer for...But not Piotr who out of all the Phoenix Five had shown the most restraint.<br/><br/>
