"She deserves to die! Do you know how much money those windows cost me?"

"You're a billionaire for fucks sake, Stark!"

"She still attacked my tower! Not to mention how she tried to kill Strange and you!"

"She was under mind control. That's not her fault."

"It's her fault that she was under mind control! If she hadn't run off with that god then none of this would be happening in the first place!"

Tony Stark and Natasha Romanoff were in a heated argument over the fate of Wanda Maximoff.

The other Avengers stood around them, but none of them said anything. Some of them wanted to see who would win. Whenever they argued, it was always a toss up.

"I'm the head of this team. You left to go build a family and I respect that, but you don't get to argue with me over things that you clearly don't understand." Natasha stated angrily.

"What don't I understand about this situation that you do? You don't know what it's like to have your multi-billion dollar mansion be ripped apart!"

"I know what it's like to be controlled for abilities or skills you don't want, then to be blamed for it later when it's not your fault, even if you did it. She's young and made poor choices, like you didn't do that."

"She has a target on her back. If we take her out of the raft, not only will all people who are after her be after us, but the military, police, and whoever else Wanda has disrupted will be on our asses too!"

"We've had targets on our back before. Don't pretend like your scared. And it'll all be more press. We can handle her. We have a sorcerer now too, he can help her."

Strange rubbed his temples as his name was brought into this.

"How did the whole 'handle her' idea work last time? Oh yeah, it didn't. Loki broke into the tower and took her. How do we know that won't just happen again? Listen to yourself Romanoff, you're putting us through an unnecessary loop. If she dies now, our main problem is solved. Sometimes you have to sacrifice people you don't want to."

"Don't talk to me about sacrifice. You have your wife hidden away in a cabin far away from here, off SHIELD data so that you can protect them. Why can't we do the same for Maximoff?"

"And what if she doesn't want to be stuck in a far off place? What will she do if she wants to come back into the big world full of news and press?"

"And what if she doesn't want to die!? She can break out of that raft as easily as she can kill a titan."

"And what if she's lying about everything? Ever stop to think about that? I mean she has been hanging around with the God of Mischief. He probably taught her how to convince us to trust her."

"If I may interrupt-"

"Quiet, Rogers." The two said at the same time, cutting the blonde off.

"Okay." He sighed, stepping back.

"I'm the decision maker her. We aren't going to break in and get her out, we're going to tell them that they can't kill her. That's all." Natasha stated, staring Tony dead in the eye.

"If that's what you think is best, I'm not joining this mission. I don't trust the girl. I think you're making a huge mistake." He replied, not breaking the stare.

"You can think all you want. But our whole organization is made to bring in misfits like Wanda. We took in Pietro and Bucky after all, why shouldn't we take in Wanda? They all experienced the same things."
