~~~~~~4 months later~~~~~~

   

    Today marks four months since y/n's been in isolation. Dr.Erskine told me they're releasing her today as i'm assuming she's been good ? maybe.
    At the moment I'm having my check up with Abe. I have gotten used to my powers somewhat, learning more and more everyday on my abilities. We've done more tests, more visits with strucker as well and with my newfound abilities. This evening we have a scheduled testing for me, but that's all I know, abe just told me it's more of an intense testing.

    Abe and I have gotten even closer as the months have gone by, he's more open and himself. He's been more...attentive with me and caring. Sometimes I find it strange with how much he cares, but maybe that's just who he truly is and it made me a bit happy to know he can be himself around me and to have a friend in here..

    I am currently getting ready for the 'big' testing for today whatever that means. We just finished up our weekly check up and I am suddenly feeling a wave of anxiousness wash over me.

    Abe is now wheeling me down to the room where the testing will be and he notices the change in my demeanor.

    "I'm not going to say it'll all be okay, because I don't know what's going to happen. I just want you to know that I'm here for you when you return..This is supposed to be the last testing you'll have to do. I know you're afraid and hell i'm even afraid for you. I am just hoping for the best." I paused for a minute, trying to focus on my breathing.

    "You know what's going to happen..don't you?" I say not knowing if I was scared at this point, more of betrayed by the fact he knows and probably knows it won't end well.

    "I know some, I didn't want to believe it myself and I surely didn't want you to worry, although it's too late for that now." We stopped moving as he came down on his knees in front of me, resting his hands on my knees. "I know, I know I should've warned you or something but I-I just...I don't know. It's going to be dangerous, I'm not even sure if it's possible."

    "What are they going to do to me?" I said sternly, tilting my head towards the man. When he looked me in the eyes, I could see the worry in his eyes. I knew he didn't do it out of spite or because he didn't care. He did. He did care and it shows.

    "I-They're going to make you face the mind stone..It's one of the most powerful stones in existence, it will grant you...great power, enhancing the powers you already have. They've already tested you with the stone before but facing it is a whole different story..

    "Wi-can it kill me? Is that why you're so afraid?"
He didn't answer as fast as I'd wanted him to, which only made it worse. The overthinking thoughts romed my head once again. 'Will it kill me? What if this is my last day on this earth? Is this really worth it?' I only thought of the different scenarios that could possibly play out tonight. 'Was this it? No this couldn't be it! I couldn't just leave pietro, I won't!'

    "No! I don't want to! I agreed to help people and to end the avengers...T-to make the world a better place! I can't do that if i'm dead! You guys don't even know if this will work, you can't make me, take me back!"

    "I'm sorry..Wanda I really am, but I have no choice." and the next thing I know is a sharp sting in my neck and all I saw was darkness.

Y/n's pov

A Few hours later

    Again..woke up to nothing. I felt nothing. No pain, no sadness, no anxiousness, nothing but a dull mind. Mainly because I've been stuck in isolation for god knows how long. I couldn't tell if hours have passed or days, hell probably even months. I sit in this block of cement staring up at the tv up in the corner of the room that plays, as people would say, 'The Golden Age of Television'.
    For a while it was entertaining and made this cell life livable, but as the days went on with the same channel and same sitcoms playing, the time drags on and makes it seem to last longer and longer. And after a while you wonder how much longer it can last, and still there's more, and more, and more. I am positive that I've seen every minute of every episode there is in the sitcoms.
    First it was "I love Lucy", then "The Andy Griffith Show", "The Dick Van Dyke Show", and now what's previously playing at the moment is "Bewitched". Honestly, I have no problem with the different variations of shows that play, but it's like once one show ends, another one begins. It's like binge watching tv all day everyday, my brain might as well be fried at this point. Every night once the tv automatically turns off, that tells me it's around dinner time. I prop myself up off the bed once the cell door opens and to my surprise, Doctor Erskine walks in with the tray of food, locking himself inside.
