Synced Insane

Aoide

I found the twins within an hour of driving. I drove up to an abandoned building and drove past Pierto and into the building. I spun to a stop and pulled out the keys. I leaned the bike against the wall and Pulled off my helmet. I set the helmet on the seat of the motorcycle and turned just as I was tackled into a hug.

"I was so worried!" Wanda said. I laughed and hugged her back.

"She was pacing like a maniac." Pierto said when we broke apart. I laughed again.

"It's fine, I'm alright." I said calmly. Wanda frowned.

"Why do you smell like blood?" She asked.

"Um, that's a long story..." I told them about how the guards came. I told them that I screamed and killed everyone. I was in tears at the end of it, now realizing what I did. Realizing how many people I killed, all that blood on my hands. I broke down as I saw the horrified looks on their faces. I slide down to the ground and buried my face in my hands, tears flowing out of my eyes and down to the ground.

A pair of arms wrapped around me. I looked up and saw Wanda. She smiled at me.

"It's okay. We've all done things like that. You can't control it sometimes." She whispered. I gave her a small smiled. My crying slowed down. We broke apart. She stood up and pulled me to my feet. I looked around, examining my surroundings.

"Where are we?" I asked them.

"An abandoned department building. It's suitable and under the radar." Pierto explained as he started towards a long staircase. Wanda held out her hand.

"Come on. I'll show you around." I smiled and grabbed her hand. We walked up the stairs and explored the building.

.....

Three months later...

I pulled into the abandoned building and skirted to a stop. I parked and removed my helmet. I set it down on the seat and grabbed the two paper bags from the basket on the back. I walked up the stairs and walked to the area we turned into a kitchen. Wanda was sitting on the counter reading a book, Hamlet. She looked up from her book and smiled as she saw me. I walked over.

"Off the counter." I scolded. "How many times do I have to tell you?" She laughed and hopped down. I set the bags on the counter.

"Did you remember the milk?" She asked. I rolled my eyes. You forget something one time.

"Yes." We started to unpack the bags.

"You get cookies?!" She held up the bag. I laughed. She looked at me with a pleading look. I rolled my eyes. She opened them up and popped a cookie in her mouth.

"Where's Pierto?" I asked, moving to the fridge with groceries. I opened the fridge and started to put them away. She followed me, her face stuffed with cookies.

"He's getting a new license plate for the motorcycle. Your current one was from an owned vehicle. He's finding one from a junkyard." She pulled out another cookie. I rolled my eyes again.

"You better not eat all of them! Pierto will want some." I called behind me as I walked back over to the counter and grabbed a few cans and some cereal boxes and walked towards a shelf full of assorted pantry items.

"Don't worry!" She responded with a mouth full of cookies. I laughed and shelved the items.

"You better have left me some!" A voice called. I stood and turned to see pierto walking towards his sister. She swallowed and gave him a smile. She held out the bag of cookies and he took a few.

"Is the new plate on?" I asked him. He nodded. I walked over and snatched the bag of cookies from them. They let out matching sounds of annoyance. "You can have more later." I set them on the counter. They groaned.

"Your no fun." Pierto stuck his tongue out. I rolled my eyes. Wanda laughed.

It wasn't much, but we were able to live here. We couldn't do normal things, like go travel or go to public places often. We were safe though. I smiled. We are living in an abandoned building and barely going outside, that's the honest truth. And yet, it was nice. Yeah, I missed Asgard but the Maximoff twins had me barely feel out of place on Midgard. I smiled as we started to make dinner. We laughed, smiled, and chatted.

She's weird, he's fast, and I'm synced insane.

That's it y'all! Prepare for book two, coming to you soon! Until then...

Stay Happy Friends!
