"MOMMA!"

"MOMMA!"

"Mag- Maggie? Little one, are you okay?"

Magda felt her ears ringing, her eyesight blurry, she felt... Bigger?

She reaches out to whoever called her that, it was a male's voice, but- who is Maggie?

"Mom..." She began to hyperventilate the moment she saw the man holding her, "mommy!"

Another stranger ran in, "honey, you're okay! You're okay!" She kneels to her, "it's us, baby, it's us-"

"Who are they?!" Magda asked the spirits around her that were all as scared for her as she was. That's when the man reached out for her and she screams, "GET AWAY FROM ME! WHO ARE YOU?!"

"I'm calling an ambulance," he ran to his phone.

The woman tried to calm her, "sweetheart- it's us-"

"A family is forever!" Magda yells, "THEY AREN'T MY FAMILY! THEY AREN'T!" She yells at spirits.


"SHE HAS SUFFERED SOME KIND OF RADIATION BLAST, Mr and Mr James," the doctor told them, "whatever happened in Westview must of hit your house."

"But only ours?" Angela aka Maggie James's mother asked in a panic, "she doesn't even know who we are- she doesn't act like herself! Something is wrong- She-"

"She's just a child," David spoke up holding his wife close, "she'll... She'll recover?"

"I believe so, but the amnesia... It's very deep-rooted, there is a chance... She'll never recover who she was past this day."

Magda laid in the hospital bed. She needed her moms, her brothers, and... God, what happened to yesterday?

"It's going to be okay, kiddo."

She shook her head, "I don't know, Uncle Pietro," she whispers glancing at the deceased Quicksilver, "I think something's wrong."

She had been talking to Pietro for a while now, since she had aged from being a toddler to having a new body.

"Maybe we should get you out of here," Pietro said after a moment of silence.

"How?" She asked fearfully, "I'm just- I don't even know how old I am," she touched her chest in fear.

"Honey?"

She tenses seeing her supposed mother.

"The doctors said that..."

They continued to talk but it felt as if they were far away...

Life felt like that for the lost child for quite a while.

Until one day...

"THERE... YOU GOT YOUR COVEN," Lilia looked over the list before giving it to Agatha Harkness, "leave me out of it."
