epilogue II

It was late. The stars were already shining brightly in the night sky and the streets of Tønsburg were empty, everyone inside their homes and settled in for the night.

Thor and I laid in bed in each others arms. Our lips were moving together in a passionate dance. Thor hovered over me, his hands on my sides, trapping me to him. He leaned down and continued to kiss me, one hand coming up to trace my jaw. I kept a hand behind his neck, keeping him close as he peppered kisses down my neck. I moaned in pleasure as he got lower and lower...

Then my phone rang from my bedside table.

"Shit," I hissed, letting go of Thor to grab my phone.

"Who is it?" Thor asked, flipping over to sit back on the bed as I peered at the glowing screen.

Thor leaned his head softly on my belly when I showed him the screen, unknown. He shrugged at me and I tapped the screen, answering the call as I started to stoke my hand up and down Thor's back.

"Hello?" I said curiously, wondering who would call me at this time.

"Is this Selene Ariti?" the person asked, it was a woman. They seemed to have a familiar voice, someone from the past but I just couldn't put my finger on it.

"Indeed it is. Who's calling," I answered, eyeing Thor with suspicious eyes, who wasn't even paying attention. He was holding an ear to my pregnant belly, playing with it and tapping it gently, causing me to roll my eyes.

"This is Darcy," the woman answered and I blinked blankly.

"I'm sorry, Darcy who?"

"Darcy Lewis."

"Darcy Lewis?" I said, eyes wide as I sat up abruptly, hitting Thor in the face.

"Darcy Lewis?" Thor gasped, sitting up with me. "I haven't seen Darcy in years, ask her how she is for me. What's she up to now, anyway?"

I shushed him, pushing him to sit back down on his side of the bed. He pouted at me so I placed a hand on his thigh before turning back to the conversation.

"Darcy, it's been years. I doubt you'd call me at this time for a random check up. Is something the matter?"

"Yeah, something is wrong. I need your help, Selene. It's Wanda."

Westview was the place that Darcy had told me to meet her in but I saw no town. Not a conventional one anyway.

It was as if I was transported through time back to New Mexico and was gazing upon that city of plastic. There was a huge black tent with dozens of, what seemed like, American military officers under it, safeguarding and keeping track of whatever was happening here. There were tanks and dirt buggy's covering almost every square inch of grass, cases of weapons stacked up beside them. I furrowed my brows at the sight, non of it seeming remotely like what Darcy had described to me. Wanda wasn't in sight and that was who I was here for, not wanting to get involved in a S.H.I.E.L.D-like operation, those days of mine were well over.

I dug through my pocket, ignoring the questionable eyes I was getting from the officers around me, to grab my phone, trying to call Darcy for the hundredth time in the last few hours. I ducked behind an off road vehicle and put the phone to my ear, wanting to stay out of sight.

"Darcy, once again, it's Selene. I'm sorry for clogging up your voicemail but I really don't think this is the right place. There's no sign of you or Wanda here. When you get this can you please call me back."
