Chapter 11 Shadowed Past
The X men were in their rooms asleep.
Sean of course had company. Kori and Revy were both completely naked next to him.
Everything was quiet and peaceful till.
"AHHHH!" Rogue screamed as she woke up from a horrible nightmare making Sean and the others jump out of bed and got dressed.
Sean rushed in when he saw Rogue was a complete mess.
"The hell happened?" Sean asked sitting next to Rogue as Louise, Jean and Scott walked in.
"I don't know I had a god awful nightmare with these images." Rogue said as he held her close.
"Yeah her shrieking totally freaked me out. I about phased through the bed." Kitty said.
"I guess those finals are getting to you." Scott said.
"No this isn't the first time I've had this dream before. They started after I moved here." Roue said.
"Wait a minute. You mean immediately or shortly?" Sean asked.
"Immediately." Rogue said before he saw the look on his face. "What is it?" Rogue asked.
"What exactly did you see in this nightmare?" Sean asked.
"Wolves, A creep castle and a blue baby dropped into a river." Rogue said.
"Blue?" Louise asked before Kurt walked in making her raise an eyebrow. "I think we should talk to the old man about this." Louise said.
"Yeah I agree." Sean said.
Later
Professor had theorized that the dreams were about Kurt as an infant.
"I always know my parents adopted me but they never said anything about me being fished out of a river." Kurt said.
"Would it have made a difference back then?" Sean asked.
"Well, no I guess not but why is Rogue having these dreams?" Kurt asked.
"If I recall correctly she touched you when you both first met. Its possible that she might have absorbed some of your memories from when you were an infant." Sean said.
"I agree however though this will have to wait. For now I recommend that all of you get some sleep." Charles said making Rogue and Kurt leave while Sean stayed.
"I'm going to go on a limb here and guess that Mystique is his mother right?" Sean asked.
"Possibly. I always felt there was a resemblance between the two back then but I never proved it." Charles said.
Next morning
"You have been carrying a terrible burden for many years Mystique." Charles said as he was in her office. "Rogue's recent contact with you seems to have given her some of your darker memories. Nightmares about a very unfortunate incident involving an incident." Charles said.
"You're fishing. You know nothing." Mystique said.
"Sean and I both know about your relationship with the boy Mystique. What we don't know is what Magneto did to him." Charles said.
"Personally I would have preferred if it was him instead of Kurt so Mara would have a monster for a son." Mystique said.
"What were you two up to in that castle? Was it worth the loss of your son?" Charles asked making her widen her eyes remembering that night while also giving Charles the opportunity to look into her mind seeing the location of the castle.
"Get out! Get out now!" Mystique said in anger before he rolled to the door.
"Just incase your curious. He turned out to be a fine lad." Charles said leaving making her sigh in regret over the loss of her son. Charles was outside the school.
'Logan, Sean I've got the coordinates.' Charles said through their minds.
"Lets go." Sean said as Logan fired up the X jet and both flew to where the castle was.
Meanwhile
"Does any of this feel wrong?" Kori asked Revy as they walked to class.
"What does?" Revy asked.
"Kurt learning about his past? My sister and I learned a long time ago that sometimes its best of some secrets stay buried for a reason." Kori said.
"Well, honestly I don't know. I know for a fact that some secrets have a tendency to reveal themselves in time. Ask Sean and you'll see." Revy said before they saw Kurt and Rogue arguing before Kurt went blue and teleported out of the school.
"What was that about?" Kori asked.
"I tried to convince Kurt not to know about his past and he took it the wrong way." Rogue said.
"Well, we better go find him. You both know how he is when he doesn't think straight." Revy said.
"Technically the last time he did that he helped Forge escape that little gizmo of his." Kori said.
"True." Revy said.
Later
Sean and Wolverine landed just short outside the castle.
"I don't like this." Sean said.
"Neither do I but we need to find out what this place is and more importantly what Magento has been doing here." Wolverine said before they rushed into the castle.
As they made it into the castle they came across a few defenses.
"What did I tell you? I knew this was going to be a pain in the ass." Sean said before blasting the defense turrets guarding a door before they both busted in only to find the place was trashed.
"What do you think of this place?" Wolverine asked.
"Well this looks like a genetics lab. Someone cleared out of here real recently." Sean said before seeing a timer on a bomb. "FUCK!" Sean yelled before they both bolted out the window just as it exploded. "Ok Magneto clearly has something to hide." Sean said as they rushed to the X jet.
Meanwhile
Kurt has received an invitation to know the truth about his past curtsy of Quicksilver.
"Well, here I am." Kurt said.
"Hello Kurt." Mystique said from behind him covered in a dark hood.
"You. Your the one from Rogue's dream. Who are you?" Kurt asked.
"You already know who I am. Son." Mystique said showing her face making his eyes widen before suddenly Blob dropped down in front of them. "Get out of here!" Mystique said but he just ignored her as the rest of the brotherhood arrived.
"Sorry but we've got higher orders so this whole..." Quicksilver tried to say before he was nearly hit with ice.
"Lets make this a fair fight." Louise said as she and the rest of the X men arrived and started fighting the brotherhood with ease due to better experience and high numbers.
Mystique had vanished during the fight seeing her one chance to connect to her son was ruined.
Later
"There was nothing left of the lab?" Charles asked Sean and Logan.
"Nothing. But from the looks of things we'd say it was a genetics lab or something of the like. Magneto was up to something though I can tell you that much." Sean said.
"Genetic experimentation on Mutants I hadn't realized he was willing to go that far." Charles said about Magneto.
"I did. I knew from day one of meeting him that he was willing to do anything." Sean said knowing Magneto was capable of doing anything.
Later
Rogue was looking out at the town before Sean came up behind her.
"Penny for your thoughts?" Sean asked making her face him and sighed.
"I feel like this is my fault for putting Kurt through all this." Rogue said making him smile.
"Nah. Don't put the blame on yourself honey. None of us could have seen this coming. Besides the truth had to come out sooner or later." Sean said kissing her cheek making her blush and smile at him. The reason her powers didn't work on him is because he could place barriers on himself to prevent her from taking his powers and memories which she was grateful for since she could finally touch someone for a change.
Later
Mystique looked out her school window with a sad expression before Sean walked in.
"What do you want?" Mystique asked not in the mood for his games before he placed something on her desk making her look and widen her eyes seeing it was a picture of her and Kurt before she lost him. He had found that when He and Logan went back into the castle to see if anything was left.
"We might have our issues Raven. But you don't deserve to suffer the loss you have. I think this can ease some of that pain. Whatever Magneto did to him all those years ago. It made him a better man then you could possibly realize." Sean said leaving.
"Sean I...Thank you." Mystique said making him smile before leaving her.
