Summery: Follows the childhood of a girl named Elphaba, born to Mystique after she got a drunk Wolverine to have sex with her. Then goes on into her childhood where she runs away, goes to the mansion, and meets her father (even if she doesn't know he's her dad) and he starts to unknowingly bond with her. That's all I say right now. Just read. I've been itching to type this up since I started writing it on paper.

Please No flames. I want constructive critasizm (know that's spelled wrong)

Chapter One

Raven

He didn't know it was me. How could he? How could he possibly realize that the slut that he's in bed with used to be his arch-nemesis? He couldn't. He didn't. My voice only slightly stirred a memory in his drunken mind. The Wolverine is somewhat hard to miss. You're in a Canadian bar watching wild cage matches and you hear about some American man in a nice leather jacket sucking down Jack Daniels like there's no tomorrow and one of the things that the observant bartender noticed was that he had swollen knuckles. Obvious much? But never mind, he knows me as Raven. It is my name. The cure. I curse it with every fiber of my being. It did this to me. Turned me into one of them. Mystique is no more. Just Raven. But that doesn't mean that Raven can't act Mystique-ish now and then. The 12sex12 was excellent. Absolutely fabulous. But that isn't what I'm supposed to be telling you about. I'm supposed to be telling you about the girl. My girl. His girl. Our girl. "Our" anything defied the laws of physics. Me and the Wolverine (excuse me, the Wolverine and I) ever being a "we" is at its finest maniacally insane. But………… (Yes there is a "but") we are a "we" and there is something that is "ours". Shocking, but true. Afterwards, when the night was long gone and he being back at the mansion, I was alone. As much as I hated Eric for what he did, I still wished he had never left me the way he did. I knew that if he came back, though the chances of that was a near impossibility, I would go back. But a near impossibility isn't impossibility, and back Eric came, saying that he had a way to reverse the cure. I went with him. I was so lost and alone that he was all I had left. Soon I could shape shift a bit again. Pyro was back with us, so it was like old times. About a month after my little episode with Logan (which I had conveniently forgotten to tell Eric about) I started having strange symptoms. There was a new mutant who had joined us, he had x-ray vision and had been through med school he took a look at me and said, "Mystique, you're pregnant". I swallowed. Eric was silent with shock for a moment then said, "Would you care to explain my dear?" his voice dangerously soft. I swallowed again, "I, um, kinda, um, mighta…sorta…kinda…had, um, sex with, um, a man, who, um, mighta been, um, a mutant that we, um, know, kinda…sorta…maybe" I was really nervous and could barely get the words out. "And who might that mutant be?" He asked, his voice still deadly soft. "……………the Wolverine" I whispered, baring myself for what was coming. "THE WOLVERINE?" Eric roared. John and Ferdy (the mutant who had x-ray vision) dropped and put their hands over their heads. But no metal came flying with Eric's rage, but I was in big trouble. Ferdy quickly tried to cover up for me (bless him)" That will mean a new member of the Brotherhood, Magneto. One that is uncorrupt by the outside world". Eric paused for a moment, "This is true. Be that as it may…." He glared at me "You are not of the line. What you did was-" "Skip the lecture Eric, I'm a bit old for the 'you did a no-no' talk" I snapped at him, no longer worried that he would send fifty pounds of steel flying at my head. "What you did will have consequences. Some good, some bad. That is all I know. We will take care of you and prepare for the baby". I sighed with relief as he motioned for John and Ferdy to get up. The next months were tough. It was when the cravings started that it became hell. I craved chocolate. I had to have chocolate. If I didn't have chocolate I would die. Then came the swelling and the super mega über cravings. And then came the babies. Yes babies as in plural. I had twins. The first one came out pretty easy. I named him Mosca. Hey, don't blame me, I like the name. I don't understand it very well, but I think that when two mutants have children that the child is born with it's powers. That's how they were. When Mosca came out, he wreathed and screamed and his body was shape shifting. The next twin was a teensy bit more stubborn. I didn't know all the trouble she would be. All I knew was that this little girl did not want to come out of my warm comfy uterus. So I pushed and pushed and pushed and pushed until she finally popped out. Now let me tell you, this girl was very pissed about being pushed out and she started screaming, to tell us about exactly how pissed she was. As I watched her, she disappeared. I could still hear her screaming but…she was gone. Ferdy stared down at his hands, "She's still there" he said perplexed. Then she reappeared and we stared at her. "Her power…" he whispered. "…is invisibility" I replied. I looked at her. Elphaba . I don't know where that came from. But it came. The voice said "She's Elphaba". So I said, "She's Elphaba". Ferdy didn't ask any questions he just took her and cleaned her off as they got me in the large four poster bed they had gotten me. John had given Eric a lot of crap about it so he got three more. Now Eric has to get another crib. Poor man. They loaded me on and I blacked out. I woke up five hours later to crying and screaming. My precious little babies were hungry. I turned into Grace and started to tiredly breast feed them. That's how it happened. I had kids. I raised them pretty good I think. For a member of the Brotherhood of Mutants. I love both of them so much. But Elphaba…she's…just…so much like… him. Logan. The Wolverine. She looked like a tiny female him. Every time I looked at her I saw Logan staring back. Those dull hazel eyes that I had once associated with a strong sexy man were now filled with the innocent curiosity of a small girl. And you couldn't sneak up on her. She could sniff the air like him and sense if someone was around. Her little face had the shape of his and she had his dark brown hair too. Oh, and I forgot to mention she could heal herself. And turn invisible the way I already told you. Mosca had my power, but he doesn't show up much until the end of this story. And I'll turn this story over to my daughter in a moment. I knew that if I wanted her to stay with the Brotherhood, I'd have to keep her father a secret from her. But you can't keep a secret forever, can you?

A.N.- The story got kind of weird in the middle. I just didn't feel like going into full detail about Mystique's pregnancy. And just to let you know, Ferdy isn't going to play a big part at all, he's just a little ad-in. I originally wrote like almost all of this story down on paper before I saw X3. So I had to make serious changes. The only phrase that was used over again was, "All I knew was that this little girl did not want to come out of my warm comfy uterus". Weird phrase, but I liked it. Very, very long author's note isn't it. I'll give you more on the next chapters. the 12sex12 is so it doesn't delete that word.
