Part 9

My jaw nearly hit the floor.
Not only do I have a father, but a brother and sister as well?

"Wait... What?!?" The silver haired one cries out in surprise. "Dad could you repeat that?!?"

"You heard me Pietro. This my long lost daughter. Violet this is your half brother Pietro, and your half sister Wanda."

"I- I... Have siblings?" I stutter. Looking back and forth between the two. Who looked as equally surprised as me. Though the red haired one seemed more angry then in shock.

"Why did you never tell us about her!?" Wanda storms over, scrutinizing me like a hawk. "How many more secret children do you have?" She cries. "First Polaris... And now this?"

"Calm down daughter..." Warns magneto. "I believed her dead until just a few hours ago. I didn't know she survived. But I wasn't listening, I walked closer and closer to the one called Pietro.

"Not much of a family resemblance." He crosses his arms at me. I reach out.
"More then you might think." I say, touching his silver hair. He pulls back once he notices. I release the spell.

"Oh... And she's purple." He rolls his eyes. But I ignore that. Instead I run my fingers through my silver hair, pulling it over my shoulder.

"Look.." A pit of familiarity rises in my stomach. "It's the same." And I was right. His brows knit, the suspicion drains from his face as he steps closer, taking the lock from my hand, and holding it up beside his equally silver hair. "Your... Your right." He states in awe. "And your eyes..." He starts. "Dad... There the same as ours!"

Suddenly his arms are around my waist and he's spinning me around. "I've got a little sister!" He exclaims excitedly. "And she can't make jokes about my hair!"

I smile up at the swift one. I like him.

"Big whoop..." Wanda rolls her eyes. "She's a witch like you." Adds Magneto.

"Your a witch?!?" I quickly turn my attention to the fiery redhead, walking over to her and examining this sibling. With the exception of Winona, I'd never met another witch before.

"Scarlett witch..." Chuckles Magneto, "Meet the Violet one."

Magneto is called away to attend to something and I am left in the company of my newfound siblings. The redheaded one doesn't say much, still untrusting. But the silver haired one won't stop talking. He wants to know my life story. Why I was dressed like an X-men? How our father had found me.

"Wait... You two are twins?!?" I scratch my head half an hour later when I finally get to ask questions of my own. "Unfortunately." He smirks to his sister. "But you look nothing alike?" I exclaim. It was true, they were complete opposites. She was the sun and he was the moon. Red hair against white. Brown eyes against blue. The only thing they had in common was the fact that they were exactly the same height.

After the one called Pietro has talked himself out I turn my attention to the witch. "Who is Polaris?" I ask. "I heard you say something about someone with that name." It was hard to forget. The Scarlett Witch had only said about three sentences since my initial arrival. And much to my surprise she answered.

I learned that I had yet another sibling. Child of an affair. A sister called Polaris. A very powerful mutant. She was briefly a member of the X-Men. But fell in love with her team member, a mutant called Havok. After discovering that Magnito was her father, and nearly being destroyed as an unwilling member of the four horsemen of the apocalypse... She retired from the hero game, married Havok and is now hiding out from sentinels somewhere in Russia.

"It seems our father has a taste for gypsy spirit." I state ironically, as Lorna was of a gypsy love as well.

This makes my brother laugh, and even this strange sister crack a smile.
