The Age of Miracles (Maximoff Twins)

Chapter 10 - The Attack

They were given their old cells back, and their old training schedule. The soldiers and specialists were ruthless with them. It didn't really make much of a difference, though, they were better. Better than before. Training went on for hours every day until they couldn't stand any longer. Pietro would run and Wanda would be shooting hex beams at targets and leaving soldiers screaming on the ground by entering their minds. Every now and then, they would force her to let all her magic out at once. It would flow harshly from her body, destroying everything around her. She's killed dozens of soldiers and destroyed a few labs. She knew she couldn't control that much magic at once and was waiting until the specialists would realize it too. It would just go until she overpowered herself, and passed out from "magical exhaustion" as they called it. She would wake up on the bed in their cell, and Pietro would massage her head to try and make the pain go away.

Their day started as every other one had. They went down to the control room to wait to be escorted to wherever they were training that day. Except when they got there, the alarms were going off. They were under attack. They waited for a while before they realized what was happening. They looked at each other with wide eyes. The Avengers.

Wanda stood straighter, fully ready for what was about to happen. She was brought out of her thoughts by Pietro nudging her. She looked up at him and he jerked his head to where Strucker and Dr. List were talking. Pietro clearly couldn't hear them, so that's must be why he nudged her. He wanted her to see what they were talking about. She entered List's mind and found what she was looking for. She used their link to show Pietro as well.

"Let's show them what we've accomplished. Send out the twins." At his words, Wanda slid her hand down her brother's arm and clutched his hand. He gave her hand a reassuring squeeze.

"It's too soon. They aren't ready." Strucker's worried tone made Wanda worry too. She looked up at Pietro, and he gave her a nod. He picked her up and sped out of there. Pietro put her down in the corridor to look out for Strucker.

"Zůstat v bezpečí. (Stay Safe)" She nodded as he kissed her head and sped off. She had a feeling he was going straight outside to mess with them. The thought made her laugh. He was always cocky like that.

She saw Strucker run up the stairs and followed in the shadows. He was stopped in his tracks by none other than Captain America. They had a short conversation before she creeped out and threw the Captain down the staircase. She quickly fled the scene before he could do anything to her. She heard him report her to the rest of the team, and scoffed. She made her way down to the lab, where she knew the scepter, that gave them their abilities, to be. She hid in the shadows until she heard the door open.

Her breath hitched as she watched Tony Stark walk towards it. Hatred filling her veins, she crept up behind him and entered his mind. She heard him gasp but couldn't care less. She searched for a few seconds before finding the perfect scene to mess with him. She let her red mist travel into his head before backing into the shadows to watch.

She watched as he looked at all the rest of the Avengers, on the ground, dead. That's what he was afraid of. Not being able to save them. He was haunted by the battle of New York. She heard her brother run in behind her, but put up her hand to stop him from going after Stark. He glared at her.

"You're just gonna let him take it?" She didn't answer but could feel the mischievous grin that took over her face. This was going to work. If Stark was taken down so easily, the others couldn't be much more difficult. She could dismantle all of them. They wouldn't see her coming.

Hey guys! Me again. So, Age of Ultron has started in the story now. I'm really trying to imagine what it would be like from the Twins' point of view, without straying too far from the original plotline. I promise I'm trying. If anything is really bothering you, I would actually like to hear about it, and I'll try and fix it. Let me know what you think!

Talk later,
