Capability - Wanda Maximoff

》 Chapter XVII 《

I open my eyes and gasp. I need air. My lung feels empty. I cough, holding on to what's near me. My eyes are wide open, but I can't recognize what's around me. I only hear mumbled sound around me.

Suddenly my view went red and I feel a stab of pain through my body. I scream, close my eyes and cry.
I'm panting, the sharp pain slowly fades away and my breath is normalizing. I open my eyes and look straight into bright ice blue wide open eyes. Visions eyes! I cry, hugging him tightly, even though it's a bit complicated, because he is holding me in his arms.

All I wanna do is feel him. I wanna feel save and in his arms I feel save. "Wanda?" He whispers. "Vision." I'm sobbing. "Are you alright darling? You passed away in the lab and when I wanted to bring you into your room, you suddenly woke up screaming in pain, a few seconds ago. You scared me my love." He says, looking at me with soft eyes. "I don't know, I feel fine now. I didn't know what was going on. The stone showed me something, but I didn't know what it was, exactly. Everything is a bit burry in my memory." I say but was interrupted by the others entering the floor.

Everyone just starred at us. "What was this scream about?" Tony asks. "We don't know, yet. It was me, but I don't know why exactly. I felt a sharp pain, but it's gone. By the way, you can let me down Vis." I look at him and he shakes his head. "You need to rest a bit at first. I will bring you to your room. We don't know what the stone did, but it was intense and you should rest, please Wanda." "Fine." I agree and Steven looks at me with a curious look. "You alright Strange?" I ask. "You remember anything?" He just asks, rising his eyebrow. "Yeah, we should talk later, I have a few questions and something inside of me tells me, you might have an answer to them." He just nods.

"So you touched the stones?" Thor asks. I look at him and than look down. Somehow I didn't noticed the god before. "We both did. I'm sorry it is necessary and we will be alright, I'm sure." He suddenly steps closer. "Watch her Vision, watch her carefully." He says before walking away. He must feel betrayed. He have warned us.
I still stand to my decision, but I also feel a bit guilty. Vision carries me in my room and stays with me. For an android he is a really comfortable pillow to cuddle with.

I wake up the next morning without Vision next to me, but Thor in a chair in my room. He is still asleep and I stay quiet at first. Trying to sort out my thoughts. The things I saw yesterday. The walls looked like spells, but I can't remember them. They are all blurry now, but were crystal clear yesterday And why didn't my body listen to me? Why can't I remember them?

I grab water and a glass from my nightstand. As I throw it in, I think coffee would be much nicer, but I don't want to awake Thor. As I drink the first sip of water I flinch. It is boiling hot and tastes like coffee. I caught and look in total disbelief at the glass in which I had filled the water. It is coffee.
Of course I had woken Thor up. "Wanda?" He mumbles sleepy. "Everything alright?" He asks the next moment, stretching himself. Wow these muscles are just, wow, I think. "Wanda?" He asks again. "Yeah, I'm alright. I just stroked on my drink. I didn't mean to wake you up, sorry." I look away at my drink. I think about water and move my hands a bit and it's turns back into water.

"You sure?" He asks again, walking over to me. "Yes I'm fine really. I feel good just a bit thirsty." I take a new sip from my water and it stays water. "Why are you here?" I ask. Thor sits down on the bed. "I was worried about you. I have seen what the stone has done to Jane and I don't want this to happen to you too." He says softly and I smile. "I promise you Thor I'm alright. I guess the stone just had given me a bit of my own medicine with the little mind game. It's nothing, I promise. Do you know how Pietro is?" I ask, take his large hand and look him into the eyes. I never had looked him in the eyes, they are light blue, a bit like Visions.

„I have no idea how your brother is doing. Bruce said he would watch him." Thor answers. „I guess he is in the lab than. Let's go." I say and walk over to the door. Thor follows me like a little puppy, while we went up to the lab. Only Bruce is there. "Hey Banner, where is my brother?" I ask him and he flinches. "You're awake Wanda, amazing." He turns around. "Hey Banner, what are you doing?" Thor asks with sparkling eyes, as his look meets Banner. "Just a few test, I'm sure it's totally boring for you guys." Bruce answers and the smile on Thors face fades for a seconds. I wish I knew whats going on in his head, but Bruce catches my attention, before I could focus on Thors thoughts.

"Your brother is downstairs Wanda. Vision carried him downstairs earlier. His vitals were normal and even if he was asleep everything looked good. We thought sleeping in his own bed would be more comfortable." I nod. "Yeah, sounds good." "He should be awake soon, I guess. What time is it?" Bruce asks. "Nearly noon." Thor answers. "How many hours were it the last time?" "23." I answer. "Give him a few more hours to sleep mazby. It's been 18 hours since." "Yeah, sounds good. I'm hungry. Do you want to eat something too Thor?" I ask the god. "Always." The god of thunder answers and we go back downstairs in the shared kitchen.

I never knew that Thor can cook that good. I have cooked often for the others, but most of the time with Vision, Nat or Pepper.
We make something with chicken together, I already forgot the name, but Thor says it's one of his favorite dishes on earth and I have to admit it's pretty good. After the meal, I took a quick shower and than we headed to Pietros room, which is on the same floor as mine and Clint's and Vision's.

We sit in the room and nobody says a word, it's been nearly 20 hours since we have touched the stones. „I'm sorry." I say and Thor looks up, confused. „You didn't want us to touch the stone to protect us and all I did was, putting you to sleep, so we could do it behind your back. I'm sorry for that, but the stones are our best chance and Pietro and I are special, we can deal with it." I explain. „I know, but every time someone talks about the reality stone I see what I has done to Lady Jane and I see her dying, even if she never did died. My brain is fooling me, I don't know how to stop it. I don't want to be harsh to you or your brother..." „I could help." I interrupt him. „I could change your thoughts. I could remove some parts and only leave you with the ones you want." Thor nods slowly. „I don't know." He looks at me. „I'll do nothing you don't want, unless it's not necessary." We both laugh. „Only the scene of her dying!" Thor says loudly and I nod. „Only."

I stand up and go behind him. I let the red magic surround my fingers and into his head. I search for Jane and the right memory. I can feel him resisting to remember but my magic is stronger and I find what I've been looking for. I take the memory out of his head and connect them back to a alive Jane and their relationship. They were really cute together. I wonder why they did break up, but I don't want to break Thors trust again, but looking inside his memories without permission.

I let my hands down. "Better?" I ask and Thor nods. "Thanks." "Always, I'm happy to help others with my powers, most of the time I only bring fear with them." "Wanda stop, five minutes please Sis." Suddenly Pietro voice interrupts us. "You slept 20 hours, it's time to wake up. Don't you think so too, Thor?" I look at the god of thunder and he smirks, knowing what I want him to do.
The next moment Thor first picks up the covers and than my brother, which groans. "You are a horrible sister." "I know sleepyhead, but it's 2pm and that's a good time to wake up."

Pietro groans and manage to free himself from Thor. Within seconds he manage to take a shower and put on new clothes from his closet. "You are such a dork Pietro." I say and walk out of the room. I'm happy that he is alright, but sometimes I would love to give him up for adoption. My brother and Thor are only laughing.
Totally in my thought, I run straight into another person in the hallway.

I'm sorry for updating so slow, Wattpad decided to delete nearly the whole chapter twice, thanks for nothing. Also I was sick for a week. The original chapter was a bit different, before it got deleted and a bit longer, but before it's get deleted again I decide to post it like this.
