Sorry guys, this ones shorter than some of the previous ones. I was having a hard time with this one, because I had to come up with dialogue for all the characters and also explain a little bit about my characters. But I think the ending will be a little bit of a surprise, and you still won't even have learned everything about them!
Read and Review guys!
Patrick had glanced back to the window, and his eyes widened in surprise when the cat jumped at the window, shape shifting in mid-air until Mystique busted through the window, causing everyone but Patrick to jump.
The Truth
Everyone jumped all at once, no one seemed to have expected the mutant to bust through the window, and yet here she was. Mystique was now standing in the living room, the window behind her broken.
"Al'ight, for dah record, I ain't fixen none o' dese broken windows. Jus' so long as we can be unde'stood on dat." Patrick said, referring to the window Mystique had just broken and the one the Brotherhood had broken the other day.
Austin looked at Mystique in surprise, confusion coating his face. He seemed lost, which wasn't a surprise, considering he hadn't even shown signs of being a mutant, even though he looked just like Rogue.
Logan jumped into action first, attacking Mystique only seconds after she had busted through the window. Shock didn't last long with Logan, action tended to take over for him.
Xavier wheeled his chair back, hoping to stay out of the fight as best he could. Mystique didn't seem interested in taking on Logan though, she just avoided his attacks and spoke to the rest of them, her attention on Patrick, Rogue, and Austin.
"I'm here to take the three of you back. You're coming with me," She said, her words surprising them all. Not only was she being straightforward, no one had ever expected her to come directly to the mansion to take back Rogue, and now she was demanding two other people.
"Sorry Mystique, but ther ain't no way that I'm going back with yeh. I'm an X-Man now, and there's not much yeh can do to change that." Rogue said, staring daggers at Mystique.
Patrick put his two cents in as well, speaking up before Mystique had something to say in return. "Yah, der ain't no way dat I'd go back wit you eider, Mystique, der ain't much tah keep meh der an'ways. 'Sides, I kinda like bein' wit mah li'l sis, an' der ain' no way dat I'm lettin' yah take dat away 'gain."
Mystique looked between Patrick and Rogue in confusion, unsure what Patrick was talking about. She looked at Austin, who was standing near the professor, trying to stay out of the way. "Wait? You think that's who you are? Was there something that I missed in the interactions between the three of you?" Mystique asked, barely avoiding another attack from Logan, who was becoming very annoyed with Mystique very quickly.
Patrick and Rogue looked at Mystique in confusion, and Austin was just filled with more. None of them seemed to know what Mystique was talking about, and Xavier wasn't getting much information from Mystique either. "Wat yeh talkin' 'bout, Mystique?" Patrick asked, finally speaking up for answers.
Mystique let out a quiet laugh. "You really don't know? Well, isn't this quite funny. But I suppose, from what I saw, it's no wonder Patrick thinks that he's Rogue's brother."
Patrick and Rogue both glared at Mystique, it was obvious that they wanted her to hurry up and tell them what she had to say. The look on their faces also showed doubt, but the doubt wasn't too obvious.
"Oh, this is too funny. I adopted the three of you when you were 4. Rogue, Patrick's not your brother, he's your cousin. Austin is the one who's your brother. Twin, in fact." Mystique said, all too grateful to be the one to burst the little bubble that had built up around the supposed brother and sister.
Austin arched an eyebrow at her words but shook his head. "I'm sorry, whoever you are, but I'm not Rogue's brother. I'd remember something like that, not to mention I don't have mutant powers."
Austin's words only resulted in Mystique laughing again, obviously amused by their confusion. "No, that's where you're wrong. The reason you don't remember is because Patrick took the memories. That night in the warehouse, after you escaped from that crate Patrick was worried about you and came to your side. Unfortunately for him, you're powers had already kicked in. You're secondary mutation caused the involuntary use of mutant powers from mutants around you. Patrick absorbed you that night Austin, you've been in a comma at a hospital since then. Patrick absorbed you and then left you there in the warehouse, all on your own."
Ha, I totally already knew that I was Rogue's brother. That's why last chapter I was asking about my accent. I should have a southern dialect, in my opinion. 2takuya says it makes sense this way, because apparently I've been in a coma since I was 6. I don't like to think about that fact, so I'll just pretend it never happened. Hope you guys keep reading, there's still more to learn about my cousin Patrick! Austin Rey out.
Yup, Austin has a point, there's still a lot to learn about Patrick. The story isn't finished yet guys, make sure you stick with us till the end. Don't forget to subscribe. Oh yeah, and Patrick says hi, he's busy pigging out on the cookies and cream icecream.
