It was two days later when Rogue finally regained consciousness. When Rogue first opened her eyes she was assaulted with a picture of Mystique in her Raven Darkholme disguise and Irene sitting next to her with one of her hands in each of theirs as they sat in the hospital room before it disappeared to be replaced with complete blackness.
"H-hello?" Rogue asked wincing at how weak and worried her voice sounded even to her own ears but she was more worried about suddenly not being able to see anything.
"Anna! You had us so worried." The voice of Mystique in her Raven disguise said sounding relieved that Rogue was awake now.
"Papa? Ah'm in de hospital rahght?" Rogue asked looking in the direction that she heard Ravens voice coming from, before looking slightly confused when she heard a chuckle that unmistakably belonged to Irene from the other side of her bed.
"Yes Anna. You're in the hospital. You've been out cold for two days and you'd stopped breathing at least twice now." Raven gently explained to her baby girl who merely blinked at this.
"Mama? Papa? Why can't Ah see anahthin'?" Rogue asked knowing that her 'mama' was on her right side while her 'papa' was on her left.
"The chemicals that boy threw into your eyes damaged them beyond repair baby girl. You're officially blind now, little one." Raven told her daughter gently and causing Rogue to sit up in shock before Raven gently pushed her back into a laying position.
"But how? Ah saw ya two sittin' next ta me an' dat Ah was in a hospital room de moment Ah woke up!" Rogue said sounding shocked and confused at the same time.
"There's something we need to tell you little one." Irene said after a moment of shocked silence on her and Ravens parts.
"What is aht mama?" Rogue asked tilting her head to the side slighting and you could hear her curiosity and confusion in her voice clearly.
"Around seventeen years ago me and Raven were…ahem playing around with her shape shifting ability and eventually I fell pregnant. The truth is, Rogue, that we didn't adopt you. We gave birth to you and your little brother. I went into labor a month early while we were visiting Germany and your brother was born blue and fuzzy with a tail while I accidently broke Ravens hand during labor and that caused her to revert back to her natural blue form. The mid-wife couldn't keep her mouth shut so me and Raven had to lead the superstitious villagers that were after you and your brother away while we left the two of you with someone we thought we could trust at the time, Magneto. Due to the difficulty of labor and then running from the mob Raven had to send me back to Mississippi so that I didn't come down with an illness while she went back for you and your brother. Magneto had sent you to an orphanage here in America and was doing experiments on your brother. Raven took your brother and ran but she was followed by Magneto and several of his pet wolves, which caused her to drop your brother over the side of a bridge and into a waterfall. Your brother was picked up by a gypsy family that didn't mind his fur, blue skin, or tail. Raven had to leave your brother with them since we knew that if she had taken him back then Magneto would be after him again and he looked happy with the gypsy family. We searched for you everywhere and were about to give up when I had a brief vision of you at the orphanage where Raven subsequently adopted you. We didn't know that you were really our birth daughter until yesterday when a doctor ran a DNA test on you, showing that you were our baby girl and we had to tell the doctor that you were a test tube baby that was kidnapped and we found you by accident when you were four. The near death you've experienced caused your latent powers to activate and that's what you saw when you opened your eyes. A vision of the present with your precognitive ability. You also have Raven shape shifting ability now but have managed to retain your normal form so far, and since you already have our powers your skin power doesn't work on us anymore." Irene said causing Rogues jaw to drop, when she was last awake she had no idea who her birth parents were and thought that she'd be cursed with the ability to never touch anyone ever again but now she knew she had two birth mothers and a little brother and she could actually touch someone without fearing about sucking them dry, even if it was only her mothers.
"Reallah? Dis isn't some horrible joke is aht?" Rogue asked in shocked but hopeful disbelief as she turned her head in the direction of one of her mothers and then to the other.
"No baby. This isn't a joke; I would never do that to you." Irene said softly as she reached forward and began to stroke Rogues hair soothingly.
"Neither would I, my little one." Raven said leaning forward and giving Rogue a small kiss on the forehead to prove that Rogues absorption powers didn't work on her.
"Mama, papa. Ah can hug ya now." Rogue said sitting straight up and hugging both of her parents at the same time with tears of joy leaking from her eyes ever so slightly.
"Yes, little one. You can hug us now without worry." Irene said gently hugging her beloved daughter back with a smile on her sightless face. Raven gently wiped the tears of happiness from her daughters eyes as she hugged her baby too, pressing her lips to said baby's forehead just because she could without worry now.
"Go back to sleep, my little one. We can talk later." Raven coaxed when Rogue let out a tired yawn.
"M'kay. Night mama, papa." Rogue muttered sleepily as she quickly fell back into dreamland.
