Everything felt like it was in slow motion.The sounds of the machine gun coming closer, and the terrified screams of the people. Electra looked at Pietro, a sickening feeling in her stomach, as he ran out to be a hero.

Electra couldn't stop pulsing the electricity down into the soil of Sovokia, but she also couldn't watch someone so kind take bullets, even if it was for the right reasons. Electra's throat went raw as she screamed, lifting one hand in the direction of Pietro and Clint. Her heart pounded so loud that her ears throbbed and stung. Never stopping the power flying out of her other hand.

It was like something snapped inside of her. Everything that felt like it was in slow motion- sped up, and crashed down on her. She felt something new. A new sensation burning at her fingertips as she screamed for the horror to stop.

As bullets flew and dust rose to cover the scene, she hyperventilated. Her quick breaths only added to the dizziness she already felt, her vision blurring in and out. As the cloud of dust began to settle, her stomach squeezed, putting a sick taste in her mouth. Her whole body shook as the power still surged into the dirt ground.

When the scene was completly visible, instead of seeing the body of someone who was too young to die, she saw a wall. A wall made out of the earth itself had risen to protect the Sovokian boy. Clint and Pietro looked towards her, the girl hunched over on the ground her breaths becoming less regular.The blood pouring out of her nose was a sure sign that she had used too much power. Her one raised hand fell, and as it did, so did the wall.

She looked at her shaking hand confused on if she had been the cause of the wall. She didn't have much time to think, though because Tony gave the signal for the final blow- and she did. She put all the power she had left into the Russian city and her already raw throat burned with anticipation.

Pietro looked astonished at the girl who had just saved his life. Her small body shook as she shot thousands of volts into the ground. Blood was freely falling from her nose and her eyes began to flutter and roll to the back of her head.

He was there before her head hit the ground, sweeping the girl into his arms and carrying her to the last boat. She was so cold. Her blue-green eyes stayed closed, even when he put his hand on her face. When his bloodied hand went to her neck to check her pulse, her hair for a second flashed brown again. He thought it had just been his imagination- that his mind was playing games with him. Perhaps...

The city fell to pieces, gravity taking care of the rest. The citizens of Sovokia hugged each other on the boats, and thanked the gods.

Clint laid down on the chairs, most likely think about his wife and kids. Natasha tried to get ahold of Banner, who had taken a jet. Wanda tended to her bleeding head. Vision and Steve walked around the boats, helping any injured. Tony had flown back to New York, trying to find Pepper. Thor had scoped the area, making sure no bots survived.

Pietro, sat on the ground with an unconscious girl in his arms. The dried blood flaked off her nose and mouth as she stirred in her sleep. He was still in shock at her new-found power. What else could she do? He didn't know the answer to that. All he knew is that he wanted to be there for her-- no matter what.

Electra POV

What in the hell...?

Why is it so dark?

Ouch what that hell. Why does my head hurt?

I began to squeeze my fingers and toes, trying to figure out if I was dead or not. Guess not.

A blinding white light burned my eyes as I slowly sat up. When I tried to sit up completely, I was stopped by a head resting on my lap. A mess of blond hair had been thrown over my lap-- I soon recognized it as Pietro's head.
