What breed/breeds are my kittens?

My family was recently adopted by an Egyptian Mau-Looking cat. About 8 weeks ago she had two of the most adorable kittens I’ve ever seen. We’re pretty sure the father is our neighbor’s Siamese cat, since one of the kittens looks exactly like him. But the other one looks nothing like either of his parents. He is dark-colored, nearly black, extremely fluffy, has lighter (but not light) stripes on the inside of his two front legs, white rings around his eyes, a white chin and mouth, and if you look really close, you can just make out what looks like to be an "m" on his forehead. His ears are also a bit lighter than the rest of his body.

I’ve heard about cats being able to give birth to multiple father litters (don’t know if that is true or not). If this is possible, what would be a good guess as to the "breed" of the other father?

It’s not really that important to me, but I am a little curious. I wish I could link a picture, but all my pictures are on my cell!
To the first answer:
I looked at pictures of the Gray Tabby and the Manx. The kitten is much darker than the Gray Tabby, and is solid in color except for the markings I described. Also, I guess I should mention he does have a tail, unlike the Manx.
To the third person…
As I said… WE were adopted by her. She showed up about 8 weeks ago and gave birth to her kittens under our deck. She just became part of the family.
Also to the third… I am giving the dark one a home (as I have my own house apart from my parents) and my older sister is taking in the siamese looking one.

Sooo to clarify… we were adopted by her, not the other way around.

I know my friend stole my cat. What do I do?

Okay so me and my other friend Alexis were outside of my house and this lady came up to the two of us and asked if this little orange striped kitten was ours. I looked at him and I knew for a fact that he was ment to be mine. We both said no but that we would love to have him. The lady said okay and that she had asked everyone in the neighborhood and nobody had claimed him. So she explained where she lived so we could come back and take him if our parents said okay. Now Alexis’s parents said no but mine said they needed to see him first so I went and got him, warning them that he wouldn’t be back of course. So he came inside and I put him down on the floor, he ran onto the couch and fell asleep on a stuffed dog that was there for really no reason. Showing off his overly sized paws, he had such big paws for such a little guy. He stole the hearts of everyone except our other cat, a bug fat cat who didnt like him. I named him Max even though thats a dog name. Okay so he and the older cat didnt get along so we allowed Max to go outside during the day and then sleep in my room at night. Those long nights helped formed a bond because he was such a clingy kitten, always by my side. Like my shadow when we were inside. My friend, Emily didnt like him. She use to get mad at him because he spilled her cup of tea one time. She always says my mom is going to get so mad at you and him for this, I always had to send him away against my better judgement. Suddenly my parents started fighting all the time and decided to spilt up, I think the fighting and the new arrival of a puppy scared Max so he spent more time outside, he finally just stopped coming home. I would still see him though, after school, he waited at the door and I stayed outside with him. I was forced to move away and I couldnt find him but my mom always said that if she could find him then she would gladly take him back. Now my friend is trying to claim ownership of him. I dont know what to do, all I know is that I want my little guy back. I have pictures of him on my computer if that helps anything.
