《Red Whispers || Wanda Maximoff X Reader》Chapter 42 || Game On

"Tony what's up?"

I can hear some dude in the background, at least I think it's a dude, he has a young voice.

"Yeah, Y/N, hi. Had a little run in with Bucky, he wasn't very pleased to see us. How's my witch doing?"

Glancing upstairs where Wanda is locked in her room I shake my head, "pissed off. Vision told her because she tried to leave."

"She didn't leave did she?"

"No, she's here. I gotta tell you To, I feel like crap doing this to her."

"I know but it's for her on safety, Y/N. You want her getting locked away with some of the world's worst villains in a high security prison?"

I sigh and squeeze the bridge of my nose with my fingers, groaning in defeat. I know she's safer here, I do. But doing this to her is killing me inside.

"Look, I know you feel bad babysitting your little girlfriend but the sooner this crap settles down and Cap gives up on his little mission, the quicker she can do what she wants."

"Mr. Stark! Is that your sister? Hi Y/N Stark! I'm Peter! Peter Parker, it's really cool to meet you! Well...kind of. I'm a big fan!"

Confused but also entertained, I chuckle, "Tony, who the hell was that?"

"That's...the kid. A new recruit. Just, I gotta go. We're both on babysitting duty today kid. Stay in touch, we're gonna need you soon. I'll send coordinates."

He hangs up and I take the opportunity to call Nat who just coughs into the other line.

"Hello to you too Romanoff. Got a cold or something?"

"More like your Winter Soldier twin choking me with a metal hand."

"What?! Are you alright? Where are you?"

"Don't worry about me. You need to get to the airport now. Steve's trying to take a chopper. He wants to take Barnes away from here so he can roam free. We can't let that happen."

"What is this, some Avengers vs Avengers face off? What about Wanda-" I get cut off by an explosion in the distance, making me jump in shock.

"Y/N? What was that?"

I sigh, "Friday, what was that?"

"A breach in the security, someone has entered the compound."

"Crap...Nat, I gotta go."

"Be careful."

"You too."

I hang up and make my way upstairs, glancing around the corner of the wall before entering. I see Vision next to Wanda, looking at the fire outside.

"What is it?" She mumbles, Vision instructs her to stay put before leaving to fly outside and check the area.

I notice someone walking in. Picking up on the arrows, I know for a fact that it's Clint. Wanda senses another presence for she uses her powers to lift the butcher knife and fly it towards his head, freezing it just centimeters before contact.

He gently pushes it aside, "Guess I should've knocked."

Sighing in relief, she relaxes, "Oh my God, what are you doing here?"

"Disappointing my kids." He shoots two arrows on each side of the room, "We were supposed to go water skiing."

Grabbing her hand, he glances at her before walking her off, "Cap needs our help, come on."

I step out now and smile with my arms folded over my chest. The two stop in their tracks upon seeing me, Clint groaning in annoyance that this wasn't easier.

"Clint. Are you trying to kidnap my girlfriend?"

"More like rescue, Y/N. What are you doing fighting for the other side? Keeping Wanda locked up, really?"

Vision now appears from outside and floats closer, "Clint! You should not be here."

"Oh great," he mumbles, turning around.

"Really? I retire for what, like 5 minutes, and it all goes to shit."

"Clint you need to think about what you are doing," I warn and Vision starts coming closer.

"Thought about it," Clint tosses over his shoulder before Vision cripples under the electricity of Clint's arrows in the walls. He's trapped.

"Okay, we really gotta go." He nods at Wanda and turns to leave, brushing past me but we both notice Wanda hasn't followed him.

I frown at a nervous Wanda, playing with her fingers and the sleeves of my zip up as she stares down at her hands.

"It's this way," Clint says but Wanda shakes her head.

"I've caused enough problems."

We both glance at one another, my heart starting to tug for this woman. She knows that I am trying to protect her and she's sticking by it. She's trusting me.

Walking back over, Clint approaches her almost impatiently, "You gotta help me Wanda. Look, you wanna mope, can go to high school. You wanna make amends, you get off your ass." I watch on in admiration of the two. I know that Clint is like a mentor to Wanda, he helped her with Ultron, helped her find her place here. She looks up to him and trusts him too.

He was there when Pietro died, Pietro took the bullets for Clint and a little kid. That I know.

So clearly they have some sort of bond. He's trying to protect her too. I don't think he'd let her get hurt. But with all of this shit going on, I don't know if he can stop that. Someone is going to win and it won't be a pretty sight.

"Shit," Clint says as Vision breaks out of the trap and blasts Clint back. He lands on his feet, sighing as he pulls out his blade.

"I knew I should've stretched."

I step in and grab Wanda, pulling her out of the way while the two fight. Well, while Clint fights and Vision just dodges it all until he has Clint in a chokehold.

"Clint, you can't overpower me."

Wanda winces as it all goes down and grabs my hand tightly. I glance down at her and groan internally. I know I have to let her leave. It's the right thing to do. Before I can do anything, Wanda steps in after Clint says, "I know. But she can."

Her red powers appear in a ball she keeps controlled with the stroke of her fingers. I watch as she tries to calmly warn Vision to let Clint go.

"I'm leaving," She instructs but Vision shakes his head, "I can't let you."

"That's not up to you Tinman." I use my powers to force his release of Clint, the mind stone in his head turning blue. Wanda looks at me in surprise as I force Vision to his knees. Noticing the pure anger in Wanda's face towards Vision, I decide to let her take over as I help Clint to his feet.

She forces him down more, the ground cracking beneath him.

"If you do this, they will never stop being afraid of you."

She sniffs as she grows more powerful, "I can't control their fear. Only my own."

And with that, she shoves him down through every single floor, plummeting god knows how deep into the earth. Clint and I watch in shock as the scene unravels before us. Wanda stares down the hole she has created, breathing heavily as she continues to push him further. I place my hands on her shoulders to ease her, feeling her stumble before she drops her hands, leaning against me for support.

I kiss the top of her head before she turns in my arms, "you're letting me leave?"

Staring at the hole in the ground, I shrug, "rather do that then end up close to the earth's core like bucket o' bolts down there so, yeah. I'm letting you leave."

She stifled a laugh before briefly looking at Clint who gets the hint.

"Right, I'll be waiting outside."

As he leaves, Wanda just looks up at me, searching my eyes.

"What you are doing, letting us leave...thank you."

Play it cool, Stark.

"Well, what kind of girlfriend would I be if I held you here forever, huh?"

Giggling, she leans up to kiss me.

"I love you."

I close my eyes, taking in her saying that before I pull her into a hug.

"Just be safe, okay? I can't lose you. Don't let them get you."

She nods into my chest, "we both know how this is going to end my love. One side will come out victorious. And the other..."

Sighing, I stroke her head before mumbling, "I won't let them touch you."

"Hate to break this up but, we gotta go now, Wanda."

Clint walks back in slowly, glancing at me as Wanda nods slowly. They start to leave but I super speed over to them, stopping Wanda again. She looks at me curiously but I pull her into another kiss, feeling my tears dripping down my cheeks as we kiss. I feel her in my veins as we kiss, I can feel her fear and her worry. I try to keep it together but when we pull away she just smiles weakly up at me.

"I'll see you soon, my love."

"Okay," I force out. Clint smiles at us as Wanda leaves and I grab his arm.

"Please take care of her. I don't know what Tony is planning but with how headstrong him and Steve are...it won't be pretty."

He nods, "I'll keep her safe."

"Thank you."

Once they are gone I suit up and head to where Nat and Tony are.

"Glad you could join us," Tony nods and I just sigh, "much as I hate this, fill me in."

Vision joins eventually, eyeing me down but I ignore it, not feeling like I need to explain myself to him. He knows I did it for Wanda, not for Steve.

When we see Cap running towards a chopper, Tony puts his helmet on.

"Game on."

A/N: Sooooo yay? :)

Anyways, this story technically IS coming to an end soon, but I do want to keep it going, how do we feel about a book 2?

Thinking along the lines of this book ends with Civil War and the next starts around Infinity War, how does that sound?

Let me know! I would continue it here but having 50+ chapters seems to be a bit much for a book.
