Mission in Paris and children stay at home
"-I believe, do they have to do with your mutation?" -I asked my ex-friend.
"-Yes, he discovered his super speed a few months ago and since then he hasn't been quiet, although even before that he didn't do it."-He smiled.
"-It must have been a relief when they manifested. "-the sentence came out of me.
"-Not really."-he said staring at me hurt. "-It just made me more afraid of your future in an anti-mutant world."
"-Sorry... I didn't mean it."
"-I understand, you can't forget all the pain I caused you after a conversation." - he moved a tower.
"-Hmm, and the girl?"
"-Wanda is still a bit reticent about the powers."
"-What can she do? "-I asked bravely.
" - It's complicated. But telepathy, empathy and telekinesis are the basis. Although there is something more..."-he a little thoughtful.
"- How old are they?" - I asked.
" -Eight. "
" -They manifested themselves early. "- I declared in surprise.
"- Yes...maybe too soon."-he said.
" - What do you mean? "- I asked.
" - There was a strange event a few years ago, I was on my way home with the twins..."-he moves the tower. "-...when the car stopped, it had gas, it was in great condition and the road was straight, the only twin awake was Wanda who was very serious, when I turned to the windshield again, the house exploded and the car returned to give. "
" - You think she was protecting you...? "- I moved the bishop.
" -Yes."
"-Well I don't know if it's possible the appearance of mutant powers in babies apart from their physical appearance but... it's too much of a coincidence."-He moved his bishop." - That explosion..."
" -...she killed the twins' mother. It was my fault, the CIA was after me."
" - Was it the CIA? "- I asked incredulously. " - I'm surprised you didn't go after revenge."
"-The twins needed me, they've already lost their mother, I'd hate to see them lose their father too."-He moved a pawn." -Besides, Nat would hate a bloody revenge. "
" - She must be very special to be able to stop you from that. "- I said moving the horse.
"-Natalya was an old friend and...lover, we didn't have a real love relationship so the kids were a big surprise...a nice surprise. And...checkmate."

We arrived in Paris, Charles rented another car and we drove to the meeting place. When we were stopped in the garage by two security guards I simply moved the grate towards them to hit the wall, then pushed past the security bars. And then we just walked up the stairs, but then in the hallway several men ran in the opposite direction from us afraid, were we late?
Apparently not, luckily when we walked in she was still getting ready to shoot.
"-Raven." - Charles started.
But then one of the fallen soldiers electrocuted Mystique. But I took the metal parts to it making him pass out.
"-Charles?" she asked weakly.
"-Erik and I came to save her. Together."
"-I never thought I'd see him again."
"-I made you a promise a long time ago that I would protect you." - Charles said. "-I'll protect her."
"-Both let's go." - I said.
"-Erik? Where have you been?"-she asked.
"-I promise to answer that far away from here. And you..."-I looked at Trask."-...remember that we spared you even after everything you did with our mutant brothers."
"-Guys something wrong with Logan."-we looked at the same he was very confused it seemed.
" - Where am I?! Who are you?! What am I doing here?!"
After calming him down, we fled from there, avoiding the military, and went back to the jet. Where some questions were reassured on Charles' part, and then Raven fell asleep.
When we arrived at the airport in Canada, we got into the car we left there and drove back to my house. I really wanted to see the kids.
"-Where are we?" - Mystique questioned leaning on Charles, as we climbed the lawn to the house
"-In a refuge." - Charles replied.
"-I really hope it is." - Said going up the entrance.
I entered the house very calm, strange. It was then that a ball hit a board on the wall and came at me.
"-Oops sorry dad...Dad!"-Pietro ran at normal speed towards me and I rub his silver hair.
"-Dad?" Raven whispered.
"-Long story, Pietro where's your sister?"
"-She's in the back of the house having a picnic with Miss Miler."
"-We were just going to serve tea." - She said as she got close. "-Welcome back, Mr. Lehnsherr."
" - It's good to be back, and thank you again for staying with them."
" - It was a pleasure. They're little angels. "- she said touching Pietro's shoulder.
" -Sometimes. "-I said and she laughed.
"-I'll take care of your guests, go see Wanda."
I nodded and headed across the room, Pietro probably out to eat cookies. I opened the back door to the garden where I found my little girl with her back to me, sitting on a blanket on the lawn.
"-Dad?" she asked from behind.
" -Dear. "
She turned away.
"-Dad!" - She got up and ran to me.
And I knelt down for her to hug me.
"-I missed you." - she said.
"-I'm here now."

After leaving us for a few minutes Erik then walked in with a girl, probably the same age as the boy and very similar to Magneto.
He is a father. That's why he left us, left me.
After a snack that Lilian Mirren, who seems to me to be a little old to be the children's mother so I theorized that it must be the baba made.
Then I needed to get some air, I left the house next to Hank who was in charge of going to town to return the rented car and erase our tracks.
I did however sit in the shade of a tree at the beginning of the forest, to think about my blue form.
I was still trying to process all knowledge about the future, also trying to contain the urge to go back to Paris and kill Trask.
I was angry that my plan didn't work and that it would have such negative consequences for mutants in the future.
I then saw the white-haired boy come out of the house and become a gust of wind towards the woods.
It reminded me of the anger I also had at Erik for abandoning me.
"-Actually, you're not angry because he abandoned you, but because he didn't tell you about us."-the brown-haired girl said as she appeared from behind.
I went back to being a blonde.
I did what I was told.
And then I realized.
Is Erik's daughter a telepath? What an irony.
" - I'm not just a telepath, I'm also an empath, so I could feel the source of your pain. "-Then she opened her eyes as if she had noticed something. "-Ô sorry I read your thoughts sometimes I can't control it."
"-Okay, Charles couldn't help it at your age either. "-I said thinking about my first years at the mansion.
"-Charles? The long-haired man. He's his brother, right?"
"-Hmmm... More or less, it's a long story."
" - Well, I was going to pick flowers in the forest and I would like some company, so on the way you could tell me your story, how about that?"
"-I do not know.."
" - Please."-she said with a pout that I couldn't say no to.
We move forward into the forest, and I'll tell you how I met Charles, how our childhood and adolescence was, and how we had to drift apart, and my life in the Brotherhood, of course I didn't tell you some bloodier and more compromising facts in history. her relationship with her father. Not for Magneto, but for her. She looks like such a sweet little girl I don't want to corrupt her in anger at her father.
"-But even with your difficult farewell, he went to Paris just to save you from the bad man, you have a bond of true brothers even though you don't have the same blood."
"-I think so."
"-I hope to have such a strong bond with my brother too when we grow up."
" - Maybe you already have it."
