Chapter 12 - long gone

Wanda manifested scissors, blades and shampoo and started cutting the bewildered Pietro's hair.

"Who are you"?

" I'm scarlet witch ".

" You mean you're that traitor".

"Not that one I'm different".

Pietro was sacred of wanda at first after seeing her magic, but after seeing that she didn't hurt him, he slowly let go of his wariness. He told wanda some of his experiences, such as how he was imprisoned in the mutant prison by President X and how he escaped from it.

The first time he tried to escape from prison, his arm was chopped off when he was captured.

Wanda took the razor in her hand and started shaving his messy beard.

After wanda was done one could see reflection of a nineteen year old youth on the mirror.

"Pietro,take a bath you stink", after saying this she went out the bathroom.

A few moments later pietro came out of the bathroom wearing casual clothes that wanda made for him on the spot.

After pietro sat down wanda introduced herself to pietro properly.

"My name is wanda maximoff, alias scarlet witch. ruler of commoragh".

" Commoragh? Never heard of it", pietro said in puzzlement.

"It will be weird if you knew about it, it's my personal dominion outside time and space".

"It sounds powerful, so are you a god"?. Pietro asked in awe.

" No, not yet ", to wanda only beings like yog-sothoth, Alethea (scp), the absolute (world of darkness) can be called gods.

In this life Wanda's only goal was to be person of their caliber.

As a native pietro knows more than wanda so she asked him about worlds current status.

economic crisis is all time high, all countries have been greatly affected. USA is naturally no exception, which is why President X wants to destroy the Avengers as soon as possible.

Prices are skyrocketing, many people are homeless, and every state is in chaos. It is estimated that a world war will happen again soon. But now, the world has begun to linger, and it is just asking who will fire the first shot to put the nail in the world' s coffin.

There are rumors that the world is going to end, that the end is coming, and only those mutant lunatics can survive it.

In this world, the vast majority of superpowers do not actually have superpowers, such as the old man who claims to be the reincarnation of Thor, and there is no vibranium deposits in Wakanda. Black Panther is just the name of a gangster.

Street superheros Iron Fist, luke cage, Jessica Jones have long perished in some accident, just like the lawyer Matt Murdock, who was killed in a car crash.

It seemed that this world might not have any so-called supernatural abilities at all. There were only ordinary people who died in various accidents and those 'mutant monsters' with genetic mutations.

However, even those who did obtain superpowers weren't that powerful. Instead, genetic mutations brought them uncontrollable disasters rather than blessings.

Like Night crawler who fused with a wall while trying to teleport and dying a agonizing death.

Cyclops whos skull exploded when he tried to shoot a concussive beam, in general superpowered individuals don't have a easy time.

Pietro was one of the fortunate ones. Quicksilver's abilities included superspeed and enhanced cognitive abilities.

In the comics, Quicksilver was one of the top speedsters of marvel, but here, Pietro didn't have such great capabilities. He was merely a mutant with super speed. Her brother probably eclipses him in speed.

"Wanda why did you come to this ruined world", according to pietro even if wanda is strong she can't be stronger then the entire world.

" For reasons, now let's go and explore we might leave tomorrow after all ", wanda stood up and started walking towards the door.

" We"?, pietro asked puzzled.

"You're coming with me", wanda said in a nonchalant tone.

Pietro was silent after hearing wanda. He thought about it and agreed to go with wanda. He doesn't have any attachment to this world anyway , his family is long gone.
