Wildcats1310: Rogue's baby ain't gonna be like Anya. Everything ain't as it seems at the moment. You'll hafta wait and find out why.
Prexistence: Shhh other people don't know that yet. Kurt couldn't disappear 'cause biatch Anya was using her powers to make it so he couldn't teleport.

Mystique saw it all. She had seen what happened to her son. She watched as Kitty Pryde and her friends mourned over the loss of Kurt. She saw his lifeless body being held in Kitty's arms.
"This is all my fault," she thought. "My greed........my power hunger cost me my son........."
She punched her fist through the monitor and cried out in pain when the glass shards cut through her hand.
Tears came to her eyes. Not because of her cut up hand or the dripping blood, but because of what she had done to Kurt.
"I'm sorry, my son," she said and then sighed. "But I guess a sacrifice has to be made sometimes..........Burn in hell you filthy humans!"

"Kitty, we have to go," Jean said.
She sighed and nodded. "Okay," she said. "Remy?"
Remy nodded and gathered Kurt's body in his arms. "He wanted out of dis place," he said. "I'm not about t' leave 'im here."
"Let's go," Jean said flying into the portal.
The others followed her.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Jean, Kitty, Rogue, and Remy found themselves in the foyer of the Institute.
"We're home!" Rogue said smiling.
Ororo, Logan, and Scott ran down the hall when they heard Rogue's voice and into the foyer.
"Jean?!" they all gasped.
"Scott!" Jean exclaimed running to him.
"Jean, you're alive!" Scott said happily taking her in his arms. "How is this possible?"
"Kurt?" Ororo said walking towards Remy.
Remy frowned. "He's.......dead," he said.
At that time everyone else came into the room.
Hank, Tabitha, Bobby, Piotr, John........everyone who ended up in a dimension was home.
Jean was back, but Kurt was gone.
A lot had happened.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Jean explained what had happened to her to everyone after she got bombarded by a bunch of questions.
"That is soooo weird," Tabitha commented. "The humans are dead, Kurt's dead........."
"Y'know, Mystique is probably pretty pissed off," John said.
"Why?" Ororo asked.
"'Cause she's been watchin' us this entire time and I'm pretty sure she knows that blue boy is dead," he answered.
"I don't care!" Kitty yelled startling everyone. "It's her damn fault he died! If it weren't for her hatred for humans, Kurt would still be here! I'm gonna kill her with my bare hands when we see her!"
With that she ran out of the room crying.
Jean sighed.
"Poor Kitty," she said. "I know where Mystique is, but I want us all to get rest tonight before we leave. Pyro, you may stay here.......but I will know if you try to do anything to harm one of us."
"Nah, I ain't gonna do nothin'," he said.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Kitty ran to her room and threw herself on her bed.
"Why'd he have to die?" she thought. "WHY?!"
Flashbacks........
(A/N: All flashbacks are pieces from "Failing and Falling.")
"Can you at least tell me your name?" Kurt asked Kitty.
"Kitty. Kitty Pryde," she answered.
"My name is Kurt Vagner," he said.
"Vagner or Wagner?" she asked having trouble understanding his German accent.
"Wagner," he answered.
"Oh, I'm sorry," she said. "I can be, like, kinda dumb."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Sooooo," she said and sat down across from Kurt. "That's not make up is it?"
"No," he answered. "I really look this vay. Do you find me freakish now?"
"No," she answered simply. "There's a guy at the institute that's blue, hairy, and well, let's just say his mutant name isn't Beast for nothing."
"Mutant name?" he asked.
"Oh, we all got, like, our own nicknames," she said. "I'm called ShadowCat."
"I like that name," he said.
"I know! Your mutant name could be Nightcrawler!" she said.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"I'll never get comfortable here," she said. "The floor is hard and cold."
"Vell, I don't mean to sound forward, but," he said blushing. "Ve could, you know, get cuddled against each other and keep ourselves varm."
"That's a good idea," she agreed.
He was surprised. He was expecting, "Eww! Like, no way!"
She walked up to him and lay down beside him.
He nervously put him arms around her. He was not used to being so close to a female before. No female ever liked him.
"Good night, Kurt," she said and drifted off to sleep.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Then she remembered the play they had done for the children when they were afraid because of Magneto's attack. It was a Snow White play and she was playing Snow White and Kurt was the prince.........
Kurt knelt down beside Kitty.
"Maybe she vill awake if I kiss her," he said.
All the muscles in Kitty's body tensed when she felt Kurt's lips press against hers.
She opened her eyes for just a moment and looked at him.
He looked at her and kissed her again, this time it was deeper and more passionate.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"The truth is, Keety, that I'm....falling in love with you," he said.
"You are?" she asked.
"Yes, but I shouldn't," he said. "You deserve someone who looks normal."
"Kurt, I like you the way you are," she said. "And the fact is that I'm falling for you too."
"Vas?" he asked.
"I.......enjoyed that kiss," she blushed again.
"Y-you d-did?" he stammered.
"Yes," she answered.
"So you vouldn't mind if I kissed you again?" he asked.
"No," she answered.
He smiled and put his hand on her cheek. He leaned in and kissed her softly.

End Flashbacks........
Kitty sobbed heavily. All she wanted was a life with Kurt and now that was taken away from her. Why? Because of Mystique. Because of Anya. Maybe even because of her. She wished she had not asked Kurt to stay that Christmas night two years ago.
"Will you stay after the institute is rebuilt?" she had asked.
"I love you, Kurt," she whispered looking out the window. "I know you are in heaven now. Soon I will join you. After I kill Mystique. I'm sorry I'm gonna kill your mother, but what kind of mother would send her own child to his death? Be patient, my love. I'll see you soon."
She lay down on her bed only to realize she would never fall asleep. Not like this. So she got up and walked to Kurt's room.
She phased through the door of Kurt's room and just stood there staring at his side of the room. Piotr also slept in this room, but he could not bear to sleep in the room he shared with his dead friend.
Slowly she walked to his bed and just collapsed on it. She glanced at his nightstand and saw a picture of him and her at the Christmas party they had the year before. They were sitting on the couch and he was giving her his goofy elvish grin as he held mistletoe above her head.
She took the picture and held it close to her. "Kurt......." She whispered. "Why?"
Tears spilled from her eyes and she cried herself to sleep. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
