Kurt hadn't been long at the monastery, he had found his old robes and got into the quiet life. He always found the pace refreshing despite the early mornings. His mind was still troubled by the things he had done and that needed some more reconsiling. When he got to confession time he sat there in silence just praying before sighing and leaving the booth. How could he say what was on his mind. When he didn't know what to take away from it.
Today he found himself in the peace garden thumbing through the pages in his bible while sat under an arbor with clamatus climbing the side. They weren't out in bloom but that didn't bother him. Just to have shelter from the frosty air was enough to keep him sat there for a little longer. He didn't know what he was looking for until the page fell open on
The pages turned again.
and again
He threw his bible down on the floor his voice scarce a whisper.
"How can I when they are who they are?"
He closed his eyes as tears fell down his cheek.

It had taken Mystique quite some time, but she had found her son and was nervous to talk to him. They hadn't had the best relationship, but she always tried to look out for him and she wanted to talk with him tonight, so she morphed into one of the people she'd seen wandering around and walked casually into the garden. approaching the young man. "May I sit here?" he asked, only changing into her true form once she was sure they were alone.
"Hello Kurt" she started, a small smile flitting across her face before seeing the Bible laying on the ground then the tears in her son's eyes. "Are you okay?" Are they mistreating you here?" she asked, getting a bit angry but also not fully understanding why Kurt was here. "I know I haven't been the best mother but I do care about you and if you're hurt or need help, just tell me, okay?" she asked quietly, worried about her son who so reminded her of Destiny.

Kurt moved to allow the other person to sit and felt the person shift next to him. He didn't need to look to know who it was and he didn't know how to feel. She was a wild card in his life, distant but reoccuring. The time he had spent with her rectently had been fun in one way but in another it was just his father manipulating him and breaking him down further. His voice spoke quietly and full of turmoil when he was able to figure out his words.
"Hello, Raven....No, I'm not ok. I am being treated fine, with open arms here."
He paused before turning to her.
"That is what everyone wants me to do but I don't know where to start. Every time I try and figure a bit out I feel like I am falling all over again."
He sighed and said one word.
"Vater."
(translation father)
The normal hopeful Kurt was far from where he should be and he hoped that she would understand which father he was on about. Yes, his physical injuries were all healed and his mental ones were better but he was still lost.

Raven was even more worried when Kurt said he was not fine, though she breathed a sigh of relief when he said they treated him well here. "That's good, I do worry about you" she said softly, bending down and picking up the Bible. One glance at the pages told her everything but then Kurt mentioned his father. Sighing, she said "I need to tell you something about how you were conceived, he is not your father. I took on his DNA and shifted into his form so I could be the father, but I didn't think about how you turned out physically."
Taking a quick glance around to make sure they were still alone, she continued. "For years, even decades, I loved this mutant woman called Irene Adler, she is your mother and I am your father. I don't know where she is right now or if she's still alive but I do still look for her." Swallowing hard, she then said "Also, I am so sorry we left you behind! The people where we lived thought we were demons and were coming after us, we hid you and had every intention of coming back but by the time we did, you had been found. I owe your life to your adopted mom!"
Tears pricked her eyes as she remembered how helpless she felt and she wiped her eyes before shaking it off. "I don't blame you if you are mad at me but I hope you will forgive me or at least let me try to make it up to you." she said, unsure about where to go from here.

What she said... he listened quietly to. His vision was spinning again. Things feeling wrong. What was wrong? Kurt stayed still but put his head into his hands. When she fell quiet he knew he should forgive her but that wasn't what he had been told in the past.
"Nein! Nein! That not what happened! You threw me over a waterfall! Azazel caught me and rescued me from you. You are my mother! He is my father!"
He didn't take the bible from her he just stood up wavering on the spot. He wanted to bamf but didn't have the energy. He turned to look at her with tears in his eyes. He raised a hand to his head as if it was hurting.
"You... he..."
He was breathing too fast and his head was spinning even more. The exhaustion he was healing from hitting him hard. He looked in pain as he crumpled to his knees holding his head and closing his eyes trying to shake the exhaustion, dizziness and mental strain. He placed a shaking hand onto Raven's knee.
"I don't know the truth. How? I saw... I know... I thought that.... Nein!"
His shoulders shuddered as his body trembled. He had not long slept for several days trying to fight the contamination in his mind. He didn't know what was real and what was a dream. He looked up the Raven.
"I don't know... who I am."
He meant that in several different ways. He was struggling with his faith, memories and knowing what he had and hadn't done.

Raven was so worried when Kurt did not take the news well, this was why she hadn't told him before but maybe she should have? Fighting tears herself, yet worried that someone would come to see what was wrong, she reached down to Kurt. It was then that he stood up, denying what happened but apparently not doing well, especially when he fell to his knees. "Whoa!" she exclaimed, gently touching him on his shoulder. "Do you need me to get someone, a doctor?" she asked, feeling horribly guilty for not telling him the truth sooner.
He finally reached up to her and she took his hand, wanting nothing more than to take him away from here and bring him home, but he had to want to. In the meantime, she said "I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth before, but I've always been watching you and you seemed so happy!" Shaking her head, she said "I know it's going to take a while to accept the truth, but is there anything I can do in the meantime?" Pausing just a moment, she also offered "If you want, you can come home with me and we can talk more, but it's up to you. I just worry about you, are you sure these guys can take care of you?"

Kurt couldn't say anything for a little as he looked up to her. When he did speak his voice struggled to form words.
"Happy!? ... Home?!"
He let out a little laugh at the idea of both of these. The hand helped to steady his spinning head.
"You have come here to tell me this? Do you know what my dear vater has done to me? Did you think that maybe I'm here to heal?"
He closed his eyes tightly shut allowing the unshed tears to finish falling. He knew he needed to forgive her as he knew he needed to forgive him. He pictured the glowing light inside him and tried to make it grow bigger.
"No, I am not sure if the people here are the best for this. I don't think anywhere can be but I do know this place is a second start."
He opened his eyes and stood up.
"How can I trust either of you to tell me the truth?"
He sat on the bench and looked at her. All the while he didn't let go of her hand.
"Do you speak the truth or did you throw me off the top of the waterfall? Why did you not tell me or come for me?"

"Supposedly...she forgot." Azazel spat as his voice echoed. his voice dripped with contempt for the Father of the child. He began to curse her in French. He appeared out of a wall of red mist as the man stopped time around them. everyone and everything was frozen save Azazel, Raven, and Kurt.
"Je te maudis! Espèce de petite Dalila menteuse! Espèce de petite vipère! Tu es une petite pute trompeuse et trompeuse! Je te maudis! Je te maudis! Je te maudis!"He couldn't help but sneer as he began to pace. "Go ahead and explain to him, how you seemingly forgot...how his mother allowed herself to magically forget. Oh wait...I forgot. You broke our contract and decided to play a game of reverse the sexes. You said it yourself, you're the Father, Which I guess makes me the mother...Well, I suppose I should look the part properly and take the form I should have from the start."With a snap of his fingers his form began to change his face took on much more feminine features, and his hair grew into a long thick black mane that went down to the thighs. His hips flared out as his body grew thicker as it took on a feminine shape more attributed to a succubus. His male parts turned into female parts. He was now a she. "There, at least I can say I'm doing my part to clear the air of this...farce." his...her voice now sounded like a young seductive Fem Fatale. looked to Mystique. "Please Raven, if you're going to claim a masculine title like father. At least have the decency to look the part. Perhaps take on the form you did the night you spread your seed into your mistress, hmm? Haven't you already confused him enough Must he now be confused on the differences between Adam and Eve?" Azazel was feeling particularly vindictive. Azazel looked to her son. "I'm so sorry Kurt, Unfortunately, I'm finding all of this out the same time you are...had I known the truth from the beginning I would have handled things much MUCH differently. Starting with having introduced myself as your mother in THIS form."Azazel sat on the Bench that her son sat on, sitting next to him. She looked at Raven with a look that could kill .Here was where the heart of her true grievances lay. "You...you were supposed to carry him and raise him with your husband...I was to be the seed as the father. I gave you a part of myself to be that seed...instead, you take that part of me and implant it into that Irine woman without my knowlege or consent, all for what?!? So you could play husband and she could play mother?!? Then you ought to have at least let me inhabit her body so I could experience the joy of bearing MY child alongside her. You broke our contract and violated me, You abandoned our son for 27 years...and now when it's convenient to you you have the Gaul to worm back into his life and tear him apart, confusing him to the point of madness...and the best you can do is give an apology that has the same sincerity of a child who's hand was caught in a cookie Jar!"
It was ironic that Azazel was now female...as she was doing a very good job at sounding like a soon-to-be ex that had discovered her fiancé was having an affair. Was Azazel correct in her accusations, perhaps not, but it was certainly how she felt given the evidence she had seen. "To answer your question Kurt, No she did not throw you over the waterfall, that was someone else. To her credit she did seem to have the intention to come back for you...though given everything that happened before and AFTER that, I'd argue that's moot." Azazel then looked back at Mystique. In the eyes of the one many called a demon, there was anger yes, but there was also deep hurt, and anguish. like every moment was a battle to fight back bitter tears. The words came out in an anguished whisper, a whisper loud enough for all three to hear. "...and tell me...where is this Irine woman now huh? For as much as she claimed to "love you" and "wanted so badly to be a mother", she seemed quick to abandon the both of you to save her own skin. Lips curled into that of a sneer as Azazel could only shake their head. "Some love..." The last two words were, the spoken part of an unspoken phrase. The unspoken part of that statement was an unrequested confession. *...I loved you...*
In truth Mystique's sudden sex change during that affair was not what bothered Azazel, it was for odd for sure, especially considering that at least as far as Azazel knew, Mystique self-identified with what mortal's often referred to as "The fairer sex," but that was ultimately the thing about shapeshifters on the level with the likes of Azazel and Rave Darkholm, they had no true from. Their true form was whatever they wished it to be. If Mystique desired to be the man of the relationship and identify as Father, that would have been fine. no what bothered Azazel was the affair itself and the secrecy of it all. What Mystique had essentially done was violate Azazel in a very particular way. The closest similarity that mortals would understand was something so horrible that even demons would not utter the word for it in mixed company and something only the worst of the worst demons participated in. On top of all that, She had denied Azazel the right as the Mother to experience the birth of their child. In Azazel's mind it took a special kind of hatred or special kind of Apathy to do such a thing, and while Azazel was not sure which, it caused them to nearly break then and there. Azazel accepted that maybe he/she deserved it, given his/her nature. But Kurt did not deserve to suffer for it.
