Capability - Wanda Maximoff

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

P.o.V. Steve

„Tony!" I nearly scream, because it feels like, if I would talk with a lower voice, he does not hear me. Not that he would listen to me, when I talk loudly, but it is harder for him to ignore. We are constantly arguing, since Wanda ran way. It has been over a week since Wanda is on the run.

Tony tried to track her down, without any luck. He knows that it is his fault. Bu he would never admit it. I'm convinced that his ego couldn't stand it. He starts to argue with everyone who did not immediately tries to help him finding her. He screamed at Pietro and Clint. He is arguing with Vision. At some point I thought Vision would just destroy himself, but luckily, he did not. Bruce is currently avoiding the lab, because Tony made him nearly hulk up two-times only in the last week. Furry completely refuses to talk to him by now and today he went against Bucky. Sam and I stepped between them, before things gone out of hand. Now Tony and I are arguing for nearly an hour straight.

„No Steve, she should be here. It is all her fault. She is a child, with powers like Loki. Do you not remember the visions she gave us, when we first met the twins. The mind games she played on us. She had worked for HYDRA." Tony constantly tried to put her into bad light. He tries to make her into the villain. But she is not the villain in this, currently Tony is the villain. But it is, because he is hurt, that she ran away and now he tries to shrink around to avoid the confrontation. She hurt his feelings, because he hurt her feelings. But Tony does not realize how much, he has hurt her with his words and now he uses these words again, to hurt her more, even-though she is not here. „Tony, stop!" I try to stay as calm as possible. Tony is angry enough, he does not need more reasons to be angry. „NO STEVE!" He screams and take a step towards me. „You listen to me Captain America." He says my name as if it was something disgusting. „Wanda is a weapon, and she is out of our control, that is more than dangerous." His eyes are filled with anger, but behind the anger, you can see his true feelings. The misery is hidden somewhere deep behind his anger, but if you look closely, you can notice it.

„She is a human being, not a weapon." I say with a calm voice. „She is our friend. She is one of our teammates. Stop treating her like a thing and treat her like human being." I continue and take a step back. I do not want to fight with Tony, even though it feels like he wants and needs it. „Let us just all calm down, we do not need to fight over this." I try again but Tony just groans and rolls his eyes. „We are way past talking Steve. We need to act she could be a global threat. How can you be so chill, if she is out there on her one with her powers?" I slowly shake my head. I take a deep breath and need to hold back, what I would want to say.

I would want to scream at him, that she is out there alone, because of him. That he had basically thrown her out, with his words. I look at him. „I believe she is fine Tony. She was alone most of her life." And you have destroyed her family a second time. I think to myself. „I don't think she will be a threat. She is our friend and teammate, and we need to treat her like that. She will never come back on her own, if you try to hunt her down and give her the fault for everything." I take another deep breath and focus on my words. I can try now or never.

„Tony." I lower my voice and try to comfort him. „I know..." „What do you think you know Steve? You don't know a thing about her and her powers." Tony interrupts me. I shake my head. „I know, that she have hurt you." „She will hurt all of us and you are to blind to see that." Again he interrupts me, but I try to stay calm and try not to be deferred into his words. „She left us, she left you. It is okay to feel hurt, it is..." „I AM NOT HURT, NOT YET!" Tony screams. „You all aren't listening to me. She will do that in the future, ask the Magician, he will tell you." Tonys voice breaks at the end and he sounds exhausted. „Nobody listens to me, why does nobody listen to me. We need to find her. She could be everywhere." Tony says and suddenly Pepper shows up next to me. She gave me a pitty look and then looks at Tony. „Tony, let's go." She take his hand and he tries to protest, but Pepper keeps up with reasons, why he should go and why she needs his help right now and barely let him talk back. She is a real powerful woman and the right women for Tony.
