~Review answers!~
Paprika: Thanx, you're so sweet! ^_^ The truth is...I'm making this all up as I go along :S But I have a vague (very, VERY vague) idea about how Kurt and Damaris are gonna be linked. It's a good thing you like the cliffys, because they're the only way I can end chapters! :p I liked the code name part too! It was a blast to write!
Ororo fan: Yup I'm evil :) Here's the long awaited update!
X-fan: I think the caps lock was on accidentally when you wrote this O.o (happens TO ME ALL THE-WHOOPS.........There, that's better XP) I'm glad it shocked ya, I love surprising people. ^_~
Storm-Pietro: I have a feeling you didn't like the whole storm-being-Liams-mother thing.........o.O but that's okay, cuz I didn't like it either, a bit too soap-opera-ish for my liking, but it was just a spur of the moment thing =.=
Sharli: So'k, (Those darn PMSing computers) I haven't updated for a long time (understatement) Mean me :) I'm glad you still like Liam, even though he's gotten old and brittle and has taken to waking with a cane while this story has been on hiatus . Your not gonna have to wait for long to find out what Liam will look like.........oh, wait, maybe you will.........(Oh WHY don't I have a computer! Why, Why?!) :P
Chaotic Dreamer: *HUG!* That's for saying you like Damaris! I'm Sooooooooooooo happy you said that! Because my characters are modeled after real people (I just do things like that) and Damaris is modeled after my best friend Linda! *Anna punches me* Um.........ONE of my best friends, besides Anna,(and she actually looks like Damaris did in the first chapter! Hair and all) o.O creepy.
Glaivster: Okay I will try and keep it up, Things are sad because I started to read your fic "Deutschland Uber Alles" cuz it sounded real cool, and then Anna punched me in the arm and said if I wasn't gonna write, I had to get off the computer. WAH X'O, Well instead please except this.........
EVERYONE READING THIS, AFTERWARDS GO AND READ GLAIVSTER'S FAN-FICS!!!

Chapter six: Confrontations and Memories.

Liam walked down the second floor hallway, his face tensed, thoughts screaming in his mind.
Not only had he just found out (in the last few minutes) that his mother, the woman who had abandoned him at birth, was living right there in the same house as him, he had also been shocked with the news that he would go through even more changes that he had already, he just hoped it wouldn't hurt as much as it did last time.........
He reached the stairs to the attic, where storm, his mother, resided.
He wondered if he should really do this. What would he say? 'Hi I know I've only just met you, and we've never even had the chance to speak to one another, but you're my mom' he laughed inwardly, that conversation would get awkward fast.
He had just made up his mind to leave when the door opened and Ororo Monroe stared down at him.
She looked slightly surprised and nervous, which made Liam nervous, because she seemed to him like a woman who had everything together, and never was out of sorts.
".........Hello, Liam." she spoke, and began to descend the staircase.
Liam felt himself getting angry, it was just the way she spoke, although she looked worried and cautious, her voice was regal and collected. She acted as though she was the queen of the world, and it really ticked him off!
When he didn't respond, storm raised an eye-brow and continued down the stairs.
"Goodbye, Liam." she spoke when she reached the bottom and then continued to walk, leaving her silently enraged teenage son behind.
~How.........dare.........she!~ he thought~How dare she have abandoned me and now just act as if she doesn't care, does she even have some inkling of an idea of how bad my life was! Well.........most of my life.........~
*Liams POV, Flashback*
"Hallo! Hallo? Sind Sie gut? Wachen Sie bitte auf!" [1]
I heard the voice in the back of my mind, It sounded young, younger than me.
I slowly opened my eyes and saw her, A little girl, she looked about five or six, her hair was blue and green, which was funny.
"Huh.........wha-what's going on, who are you?"
She paused and bit her lip.
".........Ich bin Damaris, vas ist you are name?"
I figured she was not from around here, I think she's speaking German, because Momma was watching tv one day while I was doing the dishes and they had this guy on who was switching back and forth from English to German and momma said "Damn Germans, as is world war two wasn't enough, now they gotta take up valuable space on the news!"
I don't' know what world war two was, but it sounded bad.
"I'm Liam." I sat up and rubbed the back of my head.
"Li-am?" She asked, she sounded confused.
"Yeah" I winced when I felt a giant lump on the back of my head.
"Are Sie hurting?"
I stood up and brushed my self up, standing up she was a whole lot shorter than I thought she was. I looked down at her.
"No, I'll be fine." She smiled, and I began to wonder.........
"Where are your parents?" She looked confused.
"Um.........Par-ents, you know, Mom and dad?"
"Mamma und Vati?" I suspected 'Vati' meant 'father'. I nodded.
She looked down at her pink sandals.
"Mamma ging weg, Vati schlug a metall monster.........mein Eltern werden gegangen"[2] She started to cry, loudly.
"No, no, please don't cry." I patted her shoulder, when she didn't stop crying I put my arms around her. I remembered how mommy used to make me stop crying, before she was angry.
"Shh, don't cry.........It'll be okay." I spoke quiet, she stopped crying.
I still didn't know what happened to her parents, but from the way she cried, it couldn't be good.
"It's okay," she looked up at me "I'm alone too.........we'll take care of each other."
"Take care? Bruder und Schwester?"[3] I smiled.
"Bruder and Schwester."
*End flashback, POV continues*
If it weren't for Damaris, my life would have been a living hell, heck, my life WAS a living hell, even with her support. I'm not going to let this woman off this easy without answers!
"Hey! Mom!" I yelled after her, harshly. I was surprised but the fierceness of my own voice.
She stopped, and slowly turned around, her face confused and slightly.........what was that emotion? Hurt?
"What did you call me?" Her voice was barely a whisper, but it spoke volumes to me.
".........I called you mom." My eyebrows were furrowed, my voice was still harsh, but quieter.
She opened her mouth slightly, in surprise, but remained in the same position otherwise.
"Rain?" This was not the reaction I had suspected, especially since it was a beautiful day outside, not a cloud in the sky.
"What?"
"Rain!" She practically screamed, she ran toward me and enveloped me in a hug! A really tight hug!
"Oh Rain, I never thought I'd ever see you again, I've missed so much........." I heard whimpering in her voice, she was crying?
I felt my anger disappear and slowly rapped my arms around her and hugged her back.
"I-I've m-missed you too........."
