Chapter 12
"Legacy"

After Pyro ran off into the darkness, Kitty broke down crying her eyes out at the sudden revelation. Rogue came in shortly after to help calm her down, they all went to Xavier's office to talk about what happened that night. Logan still couldn't believe that he learned that Kitty Pryde was pregnant with their enemy's child, all secrets were out as Kitty told them everything. The four month pregnant teen's baby bump started to come in and has been wearing bigger clothes to hide it the entire time.

"My god Kitty how can you be pregnant? You're 16!" Rogue said. Kitty only frowned, she had no excuses. Bobby was speechless, he loved Kitty like a sister and only to find out that she was carrying Pyro's seed made him want to kill him. Xavier saw this in iceman's mind.

"Now, Bobby I don't think that would be necessary." Xavier said.

Bobby scoffed, "Not necessary? Getting Kitty pregnant, leaving her and breaking her heart? I say it's necessary!" Bobby argued.

Kitty's eyes shot a glare at him, "It's not John's fault! I was there too, I am going to have this baby. It's the only thing I have left of him." She spat.

"She's right. John's mind is poisoned by Erik's powers of persuasion but nothing such as this... As I dove into his mind he spoke to me, he said "My. Name. Is. LUCIUS!"

"Lucius?" Kitty asked.

"John's real name, Lucius as in Lucifer, his father. John Allerdyce was the name given to him by his adopted parents. His birth parents were murdered by anti-mutant lynch mobs which I have foreseen, Lucifer was a mad man among mutants and after I have found the son, I foresaw he would follow in his father's footsteps, So I brought him here to be safe. Out of every child in this school even all of us, John was born a mutant. The first one in over 50 years."

"But we were born mutants." Logan said. But Xavier shook his head,

"No Logan, Each of us were born human but mutated into what we are today at an later time in our lives. John was born to a mutant father and a human mother, since the moment of birth, John Allerdyce; Lucius is what we call 'Homo mutandis' Mutant and human Hybrid. Everything that made John feel, joy, sorrow, fear, love everything which Erik... has managed to destroy." Kitty began to cry again rubbing her stomach. Rogue rubbed her friend's shoulder, to help calm her down but it didn't.

"Professor, if John was born from a mutant father and human mother, what does it make Kitty's baby?" Rogue asked. Everyone else picked up their ears to listen on what Professor X had to say about it.

"There is only a 1% chance that two mutants are able to conceive a child but no one ever could, Kitty and John have done the impossible. Your baby Kitty, is going to become a pureblood Mutant a brand new type of species that has yet to be named. This child is going to be the apex of Evolution, The most powerful being that has ever lived." Xavier explained.

Storm stood up, "We can't let Magneto now about this." She said.

"You're right, but Luci-John already knows. If he hadn't escaped I might have been able to help him."

"But you still can... right?" Kitty sniffed. Xavier smiled and rolled over to where she is sitting.

"Of course." He said patting her on the shoulder. "Have hope child, your baby is not going to grow up without a father, I promise." Though it didn't help seeing John again but it did fill her heart with some hope that he will return to her. Kitty was put in another room to keep her and the baby safe, Logan stood outside her door and looked back to her,

"I hope you know what you are getting yourself into, half pint. Not for some boy." Logan said. Kitty turned to him her breath shaking, and fresh tears coming down her face.

"I love him." She sobbed. Kitty mourned John for three months, the fourth month she thought she moved on but seeing him again, proved her wrong. After Logan left Kitty lied down on her bed and placed her hands on her belly, in about five more months she was going to have a baby. Her baby. Pyro's baby. Their baby.

Pyro made it back to the Brotherhood sanctuary, Magneto inspected the light bruising on his second in command's face.

"My dear boy, you never seem to keep out of trouble. But I do say bravo striking fear into the humans at the square." The old man said.

"I was busy with some protestors. If that spider freak hadn't shown up I would have gotten away from those X-geeks." Pyro explained. His arm was in a sling to keep himself from doing anymore damage to his shoulder, the cuts and bruises were tended to by Mystique.

"What have you told them?" Magneto asked,

Pyro smirked, "Nothing, I wasn't in their grasp long. They still think that John Allerdyce is still in me."

"Understand Lucius, that he is still indeed inside you only I have 'suppressed' him. But have no fear you are what you are, not this boy who Charles has raised to cloud your mind with talk of equality and peace with the humans to keep you away from your true potential."

"Yes... Like at times square, I felt more power then before." Pyro smirked, but his expression faded into a frown. "But still don't know how to do it." Magneto smiled and patted Pyro's shoulder.

"In time you will, child. In time. Now I do believe it is time for more psychotherapy to help cage the true beast inside that mind of yours." Magneto said.
