CHAPTER SEVEN - closer
☆
MARCH 23, 2015.Thomas was restless, he wanted his daughter back. Isaac had been focusing on football and school. The twins felt numb without their light in their lives, Talia made and kept them happy. Theo had given up in school, he used all of his time trying to find Talia with Thomas. Theo was becoming more of a son to Thomas than Isaac was. The twins helped look for Talia with both of them. They tried everything, she had been missing for over four months. They had no idea where she went, they were driving themselves crazy trying to find her. But what they didn't know was that Talia didn't want to be found.
Talia was moved to a cell in between Wanda and Pietro. So she could communicate with both of them. The doctor wanted her to be happy so she wouldn't hurt anyone or destroy anything. The doctor was still keen on keeping them separate. They only had contact with each other through the vents they had before. Pietro was growing closer to Talia, he had truly started to develop feelings for her, even though she was young. This year she would be turning 15 years old. Talia woke up in the morning and sat up in her bed. Wanda and Pietro woke up at the same time, they both knew that Talia was growing stronger and would soon be entering Phase Three: Success. Everyone knew she was starting to not want to leave this place. She was cherished.
Pietro went to his vent connecting him to Talia, "Talia are you up?" He asked. Talia smiled and got up to the vent. She looked at him through it, "Yes, I'm up. What's up?" she said. He reached his hand through the vent, and she reached her hand too and grabbed his hand. He smiled at her, "How are you feeling?" He asked. Talia shrugged, "The same as yesterday," she said smiling. Pietro smiled at her, "Talia come here," Wanda said. Talia turned around and walked to the vent connecting her to Wanda. "What can you hear?" Wanda asked. Talia looked around and focused her hearing, she heard the doctor's footsteps down the hall, "The doctor is coming," she said. Wanda looked at her cell door then back at Talia, "What is he thinking?" She asked. Talia focused again, trying to make her presence in his mind unknown.
"He's coming for me. He wants to test my power" Talia said. Her cell door opened and she looked at the doctor, "It's time darling," he said. Talia looked back at Wanda, "I'll be okay, don't worry," she said. Wanda nodded, Talia heard Wanda's thoughts, "Please don't let anything happen to her. I can't lose her. She's like my sister" she said anxiously in her mind. Talia smiled in comfort knowing that Wanda didn't want anything to happen to her. Talia walked beside the doctor as they walked to the medical room. They walked in and the doctor stood beside the bed, "Please lay down Talia," he said. Talia walked over and laid down on the bed. The doctor walked to the corner of the room and rolled the power reader next to the bed. He put the patches on the temples of her head and turned the machine on.
He smiled, as he examined the screen in front of him, "Wow," he whispered. Talia looked at him with worry, she didn't know what to expect, "It is okay?" She asked. He looked down at her and put his hand on her shoulder, "This is beyond what I expected," he said. Talia tried to sit up but the doctor gently pushed her down, she wanted to see that screen badly, "Is it bad?" She asked in concern. He looked at her like she was joking, "Bad? Take a look at this reading" he said. He pushed the screen into her view the power readings were phenomenal. She didn't understand them, "Is that a good reading?" She asked. He chuckled, "Darling, this is the best power reading I have ever seen. You're literally off the charts. You have entered Phase Three: Success" he said. Talia smiled, she knew what this meant, that they would soon put her out in the field. He looked at the power readings and printed them out. Talia sat up on the bed, "When will we be ready?" She asked.
The doctor turned around with the printed paper in his hands, "When I say you are. We're not just talking about you, we're talking about the twins as well. All three of you don't know how to control your powers fully, once you can then you three will be ready" he explained. Talia wasn't happy with that answer but knew she had to accept it no matter what. She was the most powerful being in the building but she needed to keep their trust. The doctor took off the patches from her temples. Talia sat up and stood up on her feet, then the doctor lead her back to her cell. Wanda and Pietro sat up and looked through the vent, "Talia, how did it go?" Wanda asked. Talia looked at her through the vent, "It went really well," she said. Pietro looked her up and down, "How was the reading?" He asked. Talia looked at him, "He said it was off the charts," she said proudly.
Later at night, when Wanda and Pietro were asleep Talia was awake. She looked at the ceiling and started to think about her life before the power, she was useless. And now she could destroy anyone she wanted. She knew that HYDRA would not use her as a good guy, she would be a weapon in their hands. She would be shown as a villain, but she didn't mind. Maybe she already was the villain. She wanted to end the Avengers and mostly Tony Stark, because of what he did to Wanda and Pietro. She wanted to tear them apart. She wanted to break them, from the inside. Talia felt nothing but anger. The fiery veins began to appear on her face, her hair started to float, and the walls behind her very slowly started breaking apart. Talia needed to calm down, and it took her a while to do so.
Talia looked at the building blocks. She extended her hand and they levitated over to her. The veins reached closer to her eyes, she turned the blocks to ash and reassembled them in the Avengers logo. She smiled at it, "I will destroy you. All of you" she muttered. She balled her fist up and the logo disintegrated.
