3rd Person POV

Peter and Y/N were at Agatha's house, guarding the place while the witch fought in the basement. They'd seen a woman with a blue shirt trying to get inside trough the back door.

"Snooper's gonna snoop" Peter said as Y/N dragged the woman inside the house using a vine.

"What is this place ?"

"My house... I think" Peter said, whispering the last part.

Y/N released Monica as she did not seem to pose a threat

Monica began looking trough papers, bills and checks on the table next to her. All the paperwork were under the same name. After a bit more digging, she found a picture of the man who's house this was.

"Agnes doesn't live here. And you don't either. Ralph... Bohner does" She said hesitantly. "How is she controlling the two of you"

Monica got up. Y/N and Peter got ready to fight.

"You know karate ?" Peter asked.

Monica threw Peter over her shoulder. Y/N grabbed the woman and tied her to the chair. Monica's eyes became blue and she ripped the vines, keeping her in place appart.

Monica saw the glowing purple ring on Y/N's hand and quickly ripped it off. She ran towards Peter and did the same.

"I'm Monica Rambeau, I work with Sword. I can help you. Who are you two ?" She asked calmly, as Peter got up.

Y/N's POV

"I'm Peter Maximoff"

"Y/N L/N"

"No, you cant be" Monica said.

"Why not ?" I asked.

"She died during the battle of Sokovia with Pietro Maximoff"

"That's my full name" Peter explained.

"Sokovia ?" I asked. Was that a city ?

"You're just making stuff up, lady. We're very much alive, there's no place called 'Sokovia', so no battle happened there" Peter said.

Her eyes turned blue.

"You're not from here. Not this universe"

"What do you mean ?"

"How did you get here ?"

"A woman with brown hair brought us here trough a purple portal" Peter explained.

"Agnes. She brought you here because you're alternate versions of Wanda's close ones"

"More details, if you don't mind" Peter asked, slightly concerned.

"Agnes, is the woman with brown hair, she's some sort of... magical being. I guess she's been tormenting Wanda, they're fighting as we speak. Wanda is Pietro's twin sister. And Y/N is her best friend and Pietro's lover"

"And we are Pietro and Y/N from a parallel universe ?"

"Exactly. Oh, Darcy would love this" Monica chuckled as she headed for the door.

"Where are you going ?" I asked.

"To help out"

"We can come with you" Peter offered.

"No. There are superhuman people on the battlefield right now. You'd be putting yourselves in danger" She denied.

"We're mutants"

"Mutants ?" Monica said, intrigued.

"In our world, some people are born with powers that we call 'Mutations', those people are 'Mutants'" I explained quickly.

"We are mutants. I have super-speed, and she can control vegetation"

"Just like your alternate selves" Monica added. She opened the door and walked trough. "Come on. No time to waste"

When we walked outside, we saw Wanda, floating. The sky was red and runes symbols were everywhere. Monica ran to help the civilians escape.

Police officers arrived in their cars close to us, more specifically, Billy and Tommy.

The soldiers were about to shoot at the twins, but I used a thick plant to stop the bullets as Peter used his speed to bring the children close to Vision.

"Y/N ? Pietro ?" Vision said, surprised.

"My name's actually Peter"

"What are you doing here ?"

"No time to explain"

The police had still not given up. They were slowly walking towards us. Peter knocked one of them out using his super-speed, Tommy did the same. Billy used a new ability to make three fall as I sprayed two of them with poisonous flowers.

"Impressive" I told Billy.

"Thanks. You too" He said with a smile.

Wanda finally came down from the sky, the brown haired woman, or Agnes, not far behind.

Agnes was begging Wanda for mercy. Wanda spared her, but put a curse on the woman.

Monica walked towards Wanda and told Peter and I to follow.

"Wanda..." Monica started.

"What are they doing here" Wanda asked.

"Agnes... Agatha brought them here from another universe. They are alternate versions of your Pietro and Y/N. They don't belong here"

Wanda walked towards us slowly observing us. She suddenly took our hands in hers

"I'm sorry"

"It wasn't your fault" I said as I held her hand slightly tighter.

"I'll help you. I've never cast a spell like this before, but I'll try" She said with a weakened smile.

She closed her eyes, and once she opened them again, they were red. She was floating and reciting spells in latin.

A red portal door opened behind us.

"Thank you, Wanda" I said.

The twins ran towards us.

"We'll miss you" They said as they hugged us both.

"Never forget all the great life lessons I taught you two" Peter said with a smile.

"Promise" They said in unison.

I laughed.

We waved goodbye and walked trough the portal.

We were back on our sofa. The year was still 1983, we'd technically just defeated Apocalypse and joined the new X-men.

Peter looked at his arm, only to see his cast.

"I did not miss that" He said with annoyance.

I looked down at my hand and my ring was still there, but the gem was now a beautiful shade of red.

I looked at a rose that was on the coffee table. It had become beige. I touched it's petals and it regained it's marvellous colours.

"I got you that. Can't believe it almost died" Peter said.

"Well, between fighting an Egyptian god with countless powers and being kidnapped by a witch to an alternate dimension, in the span of a couple days, I didn't really have time to take care of it. I'm sorry, Peter" I said as I rested my head on his shoulder.

He kissed the top of my head.

"It's fine. I don't care how many roses you want me to get you, as long as you're by my side, I'm the happiest man alive"
