Thank you everyone who reviewed chapter 20, hjh-31, raniatlw and Jordsan.
I know I said that chapter 21 would be up soon and I'm so sorry that it
wasn't, I've had a ton of work that I had to do. I hope that you've
enjoyed reading 'Fatal Attraction' as much as I've enjoyed writing it.
Thank you everyone who's reviewed it, you've made it all worthwhile.
Xavier and Jean rushed straight over to where Kurt was lying. Remy and Lance rushed over to check on Rogue whilst Kitty, after a moments hesitation, went over to Kurt. Pietro followed his girlfriend, albeit slightly reluctantly. Xavier placed his hands to his temple and furrowed his brow in concentration. "He's not dead," he announced after several seconds.
"Are you sure Professor?" Jean asked. "I couldn't sense anything."
"There is something there. Just buried very deep, and it seems almost," Xavier struggled to find a word to define what he had detected, "tainted by something. Something familiar, yet I can't quite place it."
"If he's alive shouldn't we get him some help?" Kitty suggested.
"Of course. Logan will you carry Kurt to Hank?"
"Sure thing." Logan hefted the unconscious Kurt in his arms and headed down to Hank's lab. Xavier turned to the other three. "Pietro, will you and Kitty come with me. I need to have a word with you."
"What about Rogue?" Lance blurted out from where he was kneeling next to Rogue.
"Bring Rogue along to Hank's lab as well please."
Xavier led Pietro, Kitty, Lance, Remy and Jean to Hank's lab. Remy and Lance took Rogue into the operating theatre whilst Xavier turned to speak to the others. "I'm going to go and check on Kurt and Rogue's condition. Then I'd like to have a word with you about what's been happening while I've been away." The professor turned and went into the theatre, leaving the others together.
"What exactly has happened?" Jean asked.
"I'm not quite sure," Kitty leant against Pietro's shoulder feeling, despite the early hour, that she was utterly exhausted.
Hank, Logan and Xavier crowded around Kurt's prone form on an operating table. "So what's wrong with him Hank?" Logan's grim tone matched the expression on his face.
Hank adjusted his glasses and examined a clipboard held in one furry paw. "Well from my preliminary scans I can tell that he's taken very bad torso damage; shattered ribs, some damage to internal organs and possibly some lung damage. Pulse is very faint but still there. He's lucky to be alive."
Xavier nodded. "And Rogue?"
"I was just about to give her a check over now. I'll give you a call when I get the results."
"Very well. Logan, come with me please. I need to get Kitty and Pietro's story. They know something more than everyone else."
"I'd like to know what's going on myself." Logan opened the door for Xavier and they went back into the waiting room.
"Pietro, Kitty I'd like to have a word with you in my office." Kitty and Pietro stood up and Xavier led them to his office. Once inside Xavier took sat behind the desk with Logan standing behind him to his left. "Please be seated." Slightly apprehensively Kitty and Pietro sat down. "Now, I can sense that you two know something more than the other two in there. Would you mind explaining what it is?"
Haltingly at first, but with ever increasing confidence, Kitty and Pietro related what they knew about Kurt's strange behaviour. "So you see Professor, we think that Kurt had something to do with Juggernaught's attack," Kitty finished.
"Yeah, especially since he attacked me," Pietro added quickly.
"I see." Xavier steepled his fingers. "Well, it does sound like Kurt was in some way involved in the attack. And yet, I don't think that it was Kurt acting alone."
"What do you mean Professor?"
"I sensed the a psychic residue when I read Kurt's mind to check that he was alive. I think he was being controlled by another powerful psychic."
"Who?"
"I'm not sure yet." Logan wasn't certain that this was the truth, but he didn't press the point.
Kitty was about to ask another question but the intercom on Xavier's desk began beeping. "Xavier."
"It's Hank. I've got the results of the test on Rogue."
"I'll be there shortly. Kitty, you and Pietro should go and get some rest."
Xavier and Logan went directly to Hank's lab, where Remy and Lance were still waiting. "What can you tell us Hank?"
"Rogue is a lot better than Kurt; she's broken her collarbone and left arm, but apart from that she seems to be alright. Nothing I can't put right."
"Good. Logan will you tell Remy and Lance that Rogue is going to be all right and that they should get some rest. I'll be in my office."
Xavier leaned back in his wheelchair. He knew that he recognised the psychic entity he had detected around Kurt, but he just couldn't place it. As he racked his brains he detected Logan walking to his office. Logan opened the door, came in and sat opposite Xavier. "Are you any closer to figuring out who was controlling Kurt's mind?"
"I know we've met before but I just can't remember who it was. I need to speak to Kurt when he's conscious. What's the news from Hank?"
Logan shook his head. "Not good. It's going to be a real battle to save him."
Xavier stared out of the window into the grounds at the point where Juggernaught had burst through the wall. He was sure that Kurt was going to be all right he had to be. Kurt was Xavier's responsibility and he hadn't been there to help him through this difficult time. If Kurt died, Xavier wasn't sure what he would do.
Hank stayed up for almost three days straight fighting to keep Kurt alive. At five a.m., three days after Kurt had been brought in he slumped down in a seat exhausted. Kurt was alive and he was a lot better than he had been when he came in, but he was still barely alive. He was about to heave himself up again when the door open and Xavier came in.
"How is he?"
"A lot better. It'll be some time before he's conscious, but he's going to be alright."
"Hank, you need to get some rest. You've done an amazing job keeping Kurt alive, but you need to get some rest now."
"I know, I know. I just need to do a bit more work."
Xavier nodded. "Listen Hank, you can't work non-stop, you've got to rest sometime."
"I will, I'm just going to run a couple of scans on Kurt, then I'll get some sleep."
Xavier was on his way out when he paused. "When Kurt's conscious I need to speak to him."
"I'll give you a call as soon as that's possible."
It was another week before Hank deemed Kurt able to talk to Xavier. Rogue was recovering well now, she had her arm in a sling and Remy and Lance constantly followed her everywhere to help her if she couldn't manage something with her broken arm.
Kurt was sitting up, propped up by his pillow, when Xavier entered. He managed a weak smile as the Professor wheeled over to his bedside. "How are you feeling Kurt?"
"Terrible."
"Better than yesterday then." This brought a small laugh from Kurt. "Listen, Kurt," Xavier's tone was suddenly serious. "I want to talk to you about what happened before your injuries."
Kurt nodded. "I knew you would."
"Do you think you can tell me what happened?"
"I'd like to Professor but, but I can't remember. The last thing I remember is going out with Kitty and everything after that is just a confused haze." Kurt had an anxious look on his face that carried over into his voice.
Xavier nodded. He hadn't expected this, but it didn't surprise him. "Kurt let me tell you what I think happened. I think that, somehow, a powerful psychic took control of your mind. If you don't mind, I'd like to read your mind."
"Uh, of course Professor. Do you, do you know who?"
"Not yet Kurt." Xavier pressed his hands to Kurt's temples and closed his eyes, concentrating hard. Kurt had been right, after that last memory of going out with Kitty, Kurt's mind was a confusing maze. Xavier concentrated even harder and the purple miasma that appeared to cloud Kurt's memories merely intensified. Xavier was sure someone had intentionally clouded Kurt's thoughts and he appeared to have done a good job of it. Not for nothing, however, was Charles Xavier called the most powerful psychic in the world.
Xavier was now concentrating so hard that his head had begun to throb. The purple miasma swirled and Xavier concentrated all his psychic power against it. Kurt, who was looking on slightly worried at the look of concentration on Xavier's face suddenly cried out in agony. Xavier, however, was oblivious to it. The miasma suddenly began dissipating and Xavier smiled inwardly. The key to the mystery was rapidly approaching.
Pietro and Kitty sat in the grounds, holding hands. They were both looking slightly awkward as they stared fixedly at anything but each other. Pietro was the first to break the uncomfortable silence, but only by a second. "Listen Kitty."
"Pietro I."
Both of them stopped speaking. "You first," Kitty said.
"Okay. Kitty I, I just want to say that I'm sorry. I'm sorry about everything that happened before, you know, the attack." Pietro said all this very quickly, and Kitty almost missed it.
"Pietro I'm sorry too. I should have trusted you and I'm sorry that I didn't. Can you forgive me?"
"Of course I can and I will. Kitty I love you, and I want you to know that whatever happens I will always be there for you. Can you forgive me?" Pietro was caught off-guard as Kitty clamped her arms around him in a bone- crushing hug.
"Oh Pietro, of course I do! I love you too!"
Pietro returned the hug, though with slightly less force and smiled. He was with the girl he loved and their relationship had withstood several potential disasters. He had a feeling that this might just be the last time he ever dated someone and, amazingly, he found he didn't feel any sadness. Dating was great, but this was so much better.
Xavier watched the images in Kurt's memory as though he were watching a film. He saw Kurt going further and further into the depths of jealous madness and was horrified at what he saw, especially when he saw Kurt talking with Juggernaught. It also proved his theory - Kurt had been under the influence of another psychic. And now Xavier knew who it was.
Kurt was also seeing all the images as if for the first time and he was utterly horrified and disgusted by what he saw. Tears ran freely down his face as he watched the depths of his treachery unfold before him. He couldn't believe what he'd done, even if he had been under the influence of a psychic. He wouldn't be surprised if Xavier expelled him from the Institute and sent him back to Germany, though if Kurt had been Xavier he would probably have killed Kurt.
The images soon faded and Xavier opened his eyes to stare into Kurt's tear- filled yellow ones. Neither of them moved for a long while, then Kurt managed to whisper, "well Professor?"
"I was right. You were under the psychic control of someone while you did all those things."
Kurt wasn't sure whether he wanted to know the answer to his next question, but he had to ask. "Who?"
"Someone we've fought before." Xavier paused, then continued. "Mesmero. Doubtless he sought to use you to destroy the X-Men for his master." Xavier clapped a hand on Kurt's shoulder, changing the subject. "Kurt, I suggest you get some rest. Hank won't be happy with me for disturbing you so much." He turned to leave.
"You're going to let me stay?" Kurt was incredulous.
Xavier looked surprised that Kurt had thought otherwise. "Of course."
"But you can't trust me. If I can be controlled so easily then I'm just a liability to the X-Men."
"Kurt do you know how Mesmero took control of you?" Kurt shook his head. "You were incredibly saddened and to a lesser degree angry and jealous that Kitty had fallen in love. Mesmero took these feelings and warped them completely out of perspective until all you could think of was your anger and jealousy. It could have happened to any one of us. Don't be so hard on yourself."
"But Professor."
"I won't hear another word of it Kurt. You're staying and that's final." Xavier smiled. "Get some rest Kurt."
Thousands of miles away in a mountainside cave in Tibet, Mesmero cursed his bad luck. The plan had been going so well. If only that pathetic boy hadn't been able to free himself from Mesmero's control the X-Men would be destroyed now. Still, he considered as he moved through the cave, perhaps it is for the better. The X-Men could prove very useful in freeing Apocalypse and when his master was awakened the X-Men would be utterly destroyed. Yes, it was all for the best.
Epilogue
Kurt's physical recovery was remarkable and soon he was perfectly physically fit again. The rest of the X-Men incorporated him back into the team as soon as he was possible and Kurt soon returned to his normal, cheerful self. Yet something constantly troubled him. There was always that memory of how he let the team down and his constant fear that he would do it again. There was nothing anyone could do for him, until he met Amanda Sefton. Soon he and Amanda became a couple and, with Amanda's help, Kurt's psychological wounds healed over time.
Rogue's troubles with Remy and Lance went on for a long time as both of them strived to outdo the other. She made her choice eventually and she and Remy have been happy ever since. Lance took the choice well and he has remained good friends with Rogue and, quite surprisingly, Remy.
As for Kitty and myself, we stayed together through all the difficulties life threw at us over the next few years. Nothing could separate us; Apocalypse, my father, insane human extremists, we survived them all. And I proposed to Kitty on her twenty-third birthday in Paris. We were married later that year, and the year after Kurt and Amanda did the same.
And now we're waiting to see what the future will hold for us. Whatever it is I'm sure there'll be a fair share of good-times and bad-times, but I know that I'll be able to weather them all, now that Kitty and I are together.
Pietro.
Fin.
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Everyday I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high no river too wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather and stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time
Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Oh come what may, come what may
I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place...
Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day
