"And my favorite ice cream is vanilla just like Mummy's." Talia said speaking to her newfound father.
"Ja, I remember."
"Mummy and I go out every Sunday to the ice cream parlour and have really big ice creams."
Kurt laughed at the child.
"And then Mummy says she's getting fat and has to go running after."
"I don't think you're mother could ever get fat." Kurt said smiling.
"Well she runs every morning along the beach."
"You live near a beach?" Kurt asked surprised.
Talia nodded. "It's not big but it's really pretty and Mummy and I go there all the time to go swimming and build sand castles."
"Well we don't have a beach but we have a swimming pool."
"Really?" Talia asked excited.
"Ja, you wanna go swimming?"
"Can I daddy?" She asked smiling happily. One thing Kurt had learnt in the past hours hanging out with his daughter was that she was confident. He loved it when she called him Daddy they had been talking for a few hours now and every time he called Daddy it made his heart melt.
"Ja."
"Cool." Talia stood up.
Kurt took her hand and went to port when Rogue and Pietro entered the room.
"When did you get a mini me?" Pietro asked.
"She's not my mini me she's my daughter."
Pietro looked at the child then at Kurt thinking at his super fast speed.
"But she's what? Four? Five?" Pietro asked.
"Four and a nearly a half." The little girl smiled.
"Oh." Pietro raised an eyebrow then returned to look at Kurt. "Weren't you dating my sister then?" He asked bitterly.
"Ja." Kurt said blankly.
"So what you cheated on her?" He asked angrily.
"Neine this is Vanda's daughter."
"That's impossible." Pietro said staring at the child. She looked a lot like Kurt but when he looked closer he could see his sister face.
"But…where is she?" Pietro asked in a whisper.
"I'm Talia Josephine." The little girl said offering her hand like she did with her father.
"Pietro Maximoff." Pietro smiled.
"Talia this is your uncle he's your mothers twin brother."
"Cool mummy never said she had a twin." Talia smiled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wanda knocked on the old cottage door.
It opened slightly showing an old woman smiling.
"Wanda it's good to see you." She smiled as she hugged her student.
"I need your help with something." Wanda said steeping in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Talia swam in the pool whilst Rogue, Pietro and Kurt talked.
"I'm gonna kill her!" Pietro almost shouted.
"No you won't." Rogue warned him.
"Ja, this is not Vanda's fault." Kurt reasoned. "It's something that could not be helped."
Pietro relaxed a bit watching his new niece swim.
"She's really pretty." Pietro smiled.
"Ja, she's gorgeous isn't she?" He said watching his daughter.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"It's a very powerful crystal Wanda." Agatha examined it. "I'm impressed you've been able to keep it under control."
"It hasn't been easy." Wanda sat sitting back in her chair thinking of where Talia was and whom she was with.
Agatha smiled at her student.
"You miss him." Agatha said more than asked.
Wanda looked up. "No…I mean well yeah it's been horrible not being able to see him."
"These people are that dangerous?"
Wanda nodded. "I just want this to be over."
"It will child and you and your family shall be safe." Agatha said resting a hand on her arm.
"Thanks." Wanda smiled.
"Now this crystal can be destroyed but you're gonna have to do a little training."
"Okay lets begin."
"I was hoping you'd say that."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Talia sat on the edge of her bed looking at the photo of her mother. She let a few tears fall. She may be young but she wasn't stupid. Her mum wouldn't have kept her from these people unless she had too. It scared her to think where she was and what was wrong.
Kurt ported in not expecting to see his daughter crying.
"Talia?" He asked kneeling in front of her. "What's wrong?"
He looked down at the photo of Wanda. She looked even more beautiful than he remembered.
"She will be fine." Kurt assured her hugging her. "Don't vorry, your mother is the strongest person I know."
Talia pulled back slightly confused.
"You don't know many strong people then. Mummy's not that strong. She struggles to open jam jars."
Kurt smiled at his daughter. "I mean she has a strong soul."
"What's a soul?"
"Sort like your inner self."
"Oh." Talia said still confused.
"Are you ready to eat now?" Kurt asked picking her up.
She nodded wiping her tears.
"Gut."
Wanda picked up the phone dialling the number.
Kurt paused as the pair heard a ringing. He looked at the child.
"Talia do you have a phone?" He asked.
Talia shook her head. Kurt picked up the bag that belonged to the child also where the ringing was coming from.
He unzipped it and found a cell phone ringing.
Talia picked it up. "It's Mummy's."
Kurt's eyes widened. He took it off her and answered.
"Talia?" A feminine voice on the other end of the phone asked.
Kurt was frozen hearing her voice. He hadn't heard it in 6 years. His eyes started to fill with tears.
"Daddy." Talia said pulling on his sleeve. She knew who it was and she knew her Mum might not talk to anyone but her right now.
She took the phone off him gently. "Hi Mummy."
"Are you alone?" Wanda asked cautiously.
Talia bit her lip and lied. "Yep no one here but me."
Kurt sat down on the bed listening to the conversation.
"Are you having fun?"
"Yeah. I met daddy and uncle Pietro and Aunty Rogue and loads more people."
"How do you like your Daddy?"
"I love him." Talia answered smiling at her Dad.
"I knew you would." Wanda said crying a bit.
"When are you coming back?" Talia asked.
"I don't know baby I have to sort some stuff out." Wanda answered.
"Mummy when you get back will you tell me why you left?" Talia asked the one question she wanted to know.
"I had to and I'll explain more later." Wanda said sniffing. "I should only be a week."
"That long?"
"I'm so sorry Talia but this is important."
"Okay Mummy."
"I love you." Wanda cried.
"I love you too." Talia said tears flowing from her eyes.
"Bye baby I love you." Wanda said hanging up.
Talia put the phone down on the bed and looked up at her new father.
"She'll be a week." She informed him before hugging him.
"It's okay liebchen everything vill be fine." He said stroking her hair.
"I don't understand." Talia said wiping her eyes. "Where is she?"
"I don't know either. But she wouldn't have left unless she had to." Kurt said.
"Do you still love her?" Talia asked innocently looking up at him.
"Ja, baby I do." He smiled kissing her forehead. "It's impossible not to Ja?"
Talia nodded still hugging her father.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Talia happily watched her family training as she sat on her new Aunty Jeans lap.
Her father ported then did some back flips impressing her. She started to clap.
Jean smiled at the child.
"He's good isn't he?"
Talia nodded. "He's the best."
"You ain't anything yet kid." Logan smirked.
"When do I get to have a go?" She asked excited.
"When you're old enough to drive." Logan answered. "And not before then."
Talia frowned slightly.
"We don't want you getting hurt now do we?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wanda woke up looking around the room in Agatha's house. She had completed her training and now had to find the men who were after her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The purple haired man also known as Billy Robertson was one
of the strongest mutants alive and he could fly he was telepathic. Jacob
Daniels could melt anything with heat rays.
Billy's coded name was Brawn and Jacobs was Thaw.
"So what do we do now?" Thaw asked. "I mean the boss is gonna kill us."
They sat in a diner on the highway.
"Well she ain't gonna drag her kid around. So maybe if we find the kid we can use her as ransom."
"Good idea." Thaw paused. "But how are we gonna find her?"
"Well." Billy began playing with a chip. "She's a mutant."
"Yeah so?"
"Well you see Miss Frank or should I say Maximoff was from Bayville."
"Yeah?" Jacob asked still confused.
Brawn rolled his eyes. "Have you ever heard of the x-men?"
"Yeah everyone has."
"Well they live in Bayville." Billy said explaining. "And one of the mutants…Nightcrawler I think. Is like a blue demon."
"Oh." Jacob said trying to sound like he understood.
"And the kid look a lot like him."
"And?"
"Well I figured that when Scarlet was living in Bayville she screwed the demon resulting in the mini demon."
"So."
Billy threw a chip off his partner's head.
"So he's the kids father." Billy answered. "And you'd think that if you wanted to protect your kid you'd trust the kids dad right?"
"Oh yeah." Thaw said finally understanding.
"Come on lets get moving."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wanda walked into Shield headquarters not expecting to bump into her twin. She figured he'd be at the mansion with his newfound niece.
"Wanda?" Pietro asked
Wanda's eyes widened seeing her twin. She couldn't help but hug him closely even though she promised herself she wouldn't.
"Oh god I've missed you so much." She cried as he held her.
"You've missed me. Christ Wanda what the fuck was going on in your head when you left pregnant?" He almost shouted.
"Sorry I had to." Wanda said looking up at him.
"Yeah I know." He said wiping her tears off her cheek. "Thanks for calling."
"I missed you. Everyone." Wanda said still in an embrace.
"Where have you been?"
"Just a little town." Wanda answered. "I need to find Fury."
"Come on I'll show you the way." He said taking her hand.
"Thanks."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thaw and Brawn sat in the car when Brawns cell phone rang.
"Hello?" Brawn asked. "Sir."
"Brawn have you got it?"
"Not yet sir but we have a plan."
"Well?"
"We're gonna hold her kid hostage to find her and the crystal."
"Good where are you?"
"Bayville outside the Xavier Mansion."
"Why there?"
"It's where the kid is with her father."
"Who's that?"
"Kurt Wagner you know Nightcrawler."
The man on the other end of the phone went silent.
"I'll be there in an hour."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Creed slammed the phone down angrily. He hated hiring mutants but they did good work for cheap pay.
"So dear brother you screwed with the crystals protector." Creed said in disgust.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"We think the FoH want it." Nick said from behind his desk.
"The FoH?" Pietro asked. "Why?"
"Of course." Wanda said standing up. "They could use it to make any weapon dangerous. This crystal could kill any human or mutant alive."
Pietro's eyes widened at that.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Creed opened the car door sitting in the back.
"Well boys what's the plan?"
"We're gonna sneak in tonight."
"Good I'll be waiting."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thaw melted the door stepping through the opening.
"Easy."
Brawn took lead he flew along the corridor stopping just outside Talia's room.
"This is the one."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kurt sat up in his bed. He felt a paternal feeling. He stood up leaving his room.
He walked down the corridor. To Talia's room the door was wide open.
He looked in to find her bed empty.
Logan walked into the mansion sniffing. He reached the alarm button.
"Talia." Kurt shouted panicking.
She wasn't in her room or anywhere.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Kurt she's not in the house." The Professor said sadly.
"Vhere is she?"
"I'll check Cerebro." The Professor wheeled away.
Rogue checked through the bed cover finding a note.
"Kurt." Rogue passed him the note.
It read:
Dear Mr Wagner
We have your daughter. If you want to see her again you should find her mother and the item she is keeping from us.
Contact this number when you have her.
Yours sincerely
Brawn
"What kind of name's Brawn?" Rogue asked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pietro and Wanda were both in Fury's office when Pietro's cell phone rang out.
"Pietro." He said then paled when he listened.
"One sec." He put his hand over the phone.
"Wanda…umm." Pietro was nervous. "The people who are looking for you have kidnapped Talia."
"What?" Wanda shouted angrily. "She was supposed to be safe."
Kurt could here shouting from the other end of the phone.
"Kurt wants you to come to the mansion." Pietro explained. "They're holding her ransom."
"Lets go then." Wanda said dragging on her brother's arm.
"I'll get there in a hour." Fury said as Pietro picked Wanda up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kurt paced the professor's office annoyed he was so helpless. He had only known Talia for a week but he loved her like he had known her, her whole life.
Wanda stomped into the mansion.
"What happened?" Rogue was the first person she saw.
"Wanda?" Rogue asked not recognizing her at first. She had changed a lot.
"Where's Kurt?" Wanda asked her voice mixed with anger, panic and nervousness.
"This way." Rogue said leading her to the Professor's office.
Kurt was still pacing when there was knock at the door and Rogue stepped in followed by Wanda.
Kurt stopped pacing frozen in his step looking at the woman he had once loved and still did. She had changed but looked more beautiful than ever. Her hair had changed and she wore a deep red suit with boots.
Wanda didn't know what to say. She was too scared for her daughter's safety. But then the love of her life was standing in front of her and all she wanted to do was be in his arms and cry. She had missed him so much and never thought she would see him again.
"I'll just leave you two alone." Rogue said stepping out of the room.
"Hi." Wanda said shyly.
Kurt smiled nervously. "Ja Hi."
"Umm…what happened?" Wanda asked.
"Ve don't know but they want an item that you have for her life."
"Great." Wanda muttered.
"Vhat is it?" Kurt asked.
Wanda pulled out a crystal revealing a small crystal.
"That's it." Kurt laughed nervously.
Wanda raised an eyebrow.
"That thing has completely turned our lives upside down." Kurt said still laughing nervously but half crying.
"It's more powerful than it looks."
Kurt sat down resting his head in his hands.
"It's stupid." He muttered.
Wanda walked towards him kneeling before him. "I'm so sorry Kurt."
Kurt looked up there faces only inches apart he smiled.
"Sorry?"
Wanda lowered her head ashamed. She had ruined his life.
"I shouldn't have taken the mission but when we found out how powerful it was…I'm the only one who can control it."
Kurt lifted her head up. "Is that why you split up vith me?" He asked.
Wanda nodded. "I had to get away it would've endangered you're life."
Kurt shook his head slightly. "I didn't know I was pregnant until I was settled down." She paused. "I wanted to tell you. But I couldn't…. I tried to. But hearing your voice." Wanda let tears fall down her cheeks.
"It was too hard to hear you and not see you." She finished in a whisper. "I'm sorry."
Kurt stroked her cheek like he had many times before done 6 years ago.
"I missed you." He said before there lips met freezing time around them.
Kurt pulled her up, as they stood still kissing.
"God I missed you." Wanda said finally resting her head on his shoulder as he held her tightly.
"Ve have a daughter." He whispered.
"I know I had to go through 10 hours of pain for her."
"Alone?" Kurt asked pulling back slightly.
"I was fine." Wanda assured him kissing him again. "We've got to contact the people who have her. I don't care they can have the stupid rock."
"You are not being very logical." Kurt said.
"I don't know what to do…this crystal is so powerful it could destroy some many people's lives."
"So?" Kurt urged her.
"It has to be destroyed but first of all I have to get Talia back."
"We have to." Kurt corrected her.
"Yeah." Wanda said resting her head in his shoulder again.
