Can we trust her?

Chapter 7

Once again Wanda woke up in the middle of the street, this time she didn't even hesitate and ran to Pietro's house, she knocked the door and waited. He opened the door and she hugged him.

"Hello Wanda from the other reality" he greeted

She laughed and they sat on the stairs.

"How are you?" she asked him

Pietro shrugged "I'm fine, how about you?"

Wanda crossed her arms and took a deep breath "I told everyone I was a mutant"

He put his right arm around her "What did they say?"

She chuckled "Nothing"

Pietro sighed and knelt in front of her "I know it's difficult for you to share that, but what are you afraid of?"

She didn't want to answer, but it was probably the fear of being treated like a freak. At times like this she missed him more than ever, Pietro was the only one she could be completely honest with.

Her brother snorted and as if he had read her mind he said "All the Avengers are freaks Wanda, you fit just fine"

Wanda laughed, after all he was right. Then she remembered Sebastian Carson and asked Pietro about him, he might be able to help.

He listened what she told him and advised her "You need to protect your thoughts"

She rolled her eyes "I know that, but with what?"

Pietro frowned "Stark has a machine that can replicate any metal, ask dad for his helmet"

She bit her lip "Stark doesn't have that machine and I haven't seen my father since I was twelve, I doubt I will be able to find him now"

"You'll have to, I can't think of another way to protect your mind" he told her

"What's his name in the first place?"

He smirked "His name is Erik Lehnsherr, but he's better known as Magneto"

Pietro said that as if it had some sort of power but she didn't understand it, Wanda didn't even know why she would ask her dad, a man who had abandoned them and only came back because he wanted to use their gifts, for his helmet. It didn't sound logical. She started to feel dizzy "I have to go know" she told her brother, he nodded and kissed her forehead

"Be careful" Pietro said and she went back to reality.

Steve was sitting next to her "I thought you were sleeping" he commented and handed her a tissue; she realized she had a nosebleed again.

"Damn it" she muttered and cleaned the blood.

"Natasha told us about you making other realities, don't be mad at her, I made her tell us" he told her.

One part of her was relieved because she was too tired to explain everything to everyone, on the other hand she felt a bit angry Natasha had broken a promise. She sighed and shrugged, that wasn't so important now after all.

Steve spoke again "Wanda I trust you, but you can't keep things like this as a secret, I need you to trust me, to trust us"

The Maximoff twin nodded "I trust you" he smiled and she continued "I asked my brother for help and he suggested that I should find my father and ask him for his helmet"

He nodded cheerfully "Okay! Where can we find him?"

She answered almost whispering "I don't know"

He nodded again "Do we have a plan B?"

She shrugged and guessed "Improvise?"

Rogers blinked a couple of times "That could actually work"
