Author’s Note: Lots of notes to
put down first. Sorry. Big important one, I don’t own anything to
do with X-Men…. Sue me all you want, but it won’t get you anywhere…I’m a poor
college student.
Please take note that my knowledge of the comic book version of
X-Men is limited. In Kurt Wagner’s
case, I go completely by what I know from the movie, X2, and the Nightcrawler
Prequel found in the movie comic book adaptation. Also realize that depending on what you base your knowledge on
(the comic or the movie) makes the difference on just how Kurt came into
the circle of X-Men mutants. Once
again, I go by what I’ve read in the Nightcrawler Prequel, therefore he left
the circus due to a stupid move he did during a performance and was captured
while being under the influence of mind control.
Please, no criticisms. I
have given you fair warning of how I’m using Nightcrawler’s past in my story
and where I got it from. That, and his
hair to me is black in the movie…although I know its supposed to be blue. But seriously…its black in the movie!! Lol.
Two songs inspired this: “Heaven” sung by DJ Sammy, and “Here
Without You” by 3 Doors Down. The
lyrics of both can be found at the end of Chapter 5.
I used some of the German language in this fic, so if you speak
German or know more than I do (which is basically anything) please excuse my
lame excuse for using the Google Language Tool to translate the stuff I
wanted. I took French…haha, which
doesn’t mean much. Not to mention I
have no idea what a Russian last name would be, so ignore that too.
Also, I’m sure you’ll realize this, but I haven’t been to a circus
in ages…so if anything I wrote seems a little impractical, just forget it. LOL…My imagination ran wild with that one.
PS—(lol), I put all the German to English Translations I’ve used at
the bottom of every chapter. I know
that’s annoying, but thought it would be helpful to you wonderful readers J
