The Raft Prison

Florence and Pietro had woken up hours after arriving at the Raft the pair, and Wanda, had on large bulky collars preventing them from using their abilities.

However, Florence had the added extra of having a chip implanted into her neck, which made her feel like she wasn't a mutant at all. It seemed to dampen her mutation so much that she couldn't feel any of the elements she would normally feel and that she just took for granted.

This made her feel numb.

Pietro's cell was opposite hers so he had a front seat view of what was happening to his soulmate. She looked like her soul had been removed from her body, that she was just a shell of the woman she was.

And it killed him to see this.

What had made it worse was that everything was happening at a much slower rate since his powers were dampened and it was metaphorically killing him.

Her knees were tucked up to her chest and she was just staring at the wall opposite her. She looked dead.

It wasn't till an hour later, after they had woken up did someone come through to their block of cells.

Tony.

Clint began to clap slowly, "The Futurist, ladies and gentlemen! The Futurist is here! He sees all! He knows what's best for you, whether your like it or not." He says with anger at the end.

"Give me a break, Barton. I had no idea they'll put you here. Come on." Tony wanted his now ex-friend to listen to him.
"Yeah, well, you knew they'd put us somewhere, Tony." Clint spat.
"Yeah, but not some super-max floating ocean pokey. You know, this place is for maniacs. This is a place for..." Tony was searching for the right word to use when Clint answered for him.

"Criminals?" He stood up, "Criminals, Tony. Think that's the word you're looking for." He eyes Tony through the bars. "Right? That didn't used to mean me. Or Sam, or Pietro, or Florence, or Wanda. But, here we are."

Tony kept talking and Clint eventually got fed up and so Tony left him and moved onto the next person, that person being Sam.

"Hank Pym always said, you never can trust a Stark." Scott said as Tony was passing his cell.

Tony made his way over to Sam's cell and they began to talk, all while the three with powers were numb and stayed still, not giving any reactions to what was going on around them. He finished talking to Sam and as he was about to leave, Tony walked over to Florence's cell.

"You know, Harry really didn't mean to hurt you." At the mention of her old friend's name, her eyes darted towards him, holding so many emotions in them. Tony continued, "You really gave him a good whack, he's been in and out of consciousness all day."

Florence just continued to look at him with the biggest 'fuck off' eyes of the century. Tony took the hint and left her alone, with only her thoughts to occupy her for the time being, which was now a dangerous thing for the poor woman.

A few days had gone by since their arrest and Florence's condition worsened, she would barely eat or sleep, she just stared at the wall, not moving at all.

The time had come for the group to choose their punishment, Wanda had chosen to stay there - in hopes of being broken out- Clint had chosen to retire properly this time and stay at home, Scott had gone with house arrest in his home in San Francisco, Pietro had also chosen house arrest and had told Senator Ross that Florence had chosen the same and she just didn't want to speak to them.

Two days later they were free.

But not fully.

When she had found out it was time to leave, Florence begged for the chip in her neck to be removed for her own sanity. "Miss Brown, for the last time you aren't having that damn chip removed!" Ross bellowed, "It is for the greater good."

"Greater good?" She scoffed, "How is this good for anyone! I can't function without my mutation! It is a part of me and you can't just take that away!" Florence began to shout. "How about I take your eyes? Hm? How would you like that, your eyes are a vital part of you aren't they?" She asked Ross and he nodded slightly.

"See! So why should I have this taken away from me, I was born with it. You have no right to take this away from me!" She slammed her hands on the table causing Ross' glass of water to smash on the floor.

"Miss Brown, your abilities are dangerous and it is my job to protect the public, this is me doing my job."

"You only fear what you can't control." She spat and left the room to meet up with Pietro and finally go home and live in peace.

For now.

Boom! That is the end of Civil War, I think I'll have a couple filler chapters between now and Infinity War. This was just a really short chapter to finish CW off! So this is why it is a double upload today since it's really short

I'm surprised that Civil War only took a few chapters tbh but then again Florence wasn't in a lot of the scenes in the movie.

Anyways hope you all have a good day :)

Please vote, it really helps!
