Sleep, train, pain, repeat.
It was like this for the last three months when we got that wake up call, when I had first seen the twins.
Since then Pietro, Wanda and I have become inseparable, we were a dynamic trio.
Just like Strucker had wanted us to be.
With Pietro's super speed, Wanda's weird mind manipulation, and my power to control water, ice, snow, we were a perfect team.
'Report to your stations immediately, this is not a drill, we are under attack! We are under attack!'
The intercom sounded throughout the compound, I looked at the twins then ran towards the gyms window.
I could barely make out what was going on until I saw it.
Iron man
"It's the avengers" I stated as I turned to the twins.
They looked at me before heading the the main room/ lab that was upstairs.
We walked for about 5 minutes when we saw all the doctors, fighters and scientists scattered around the room frantically deleting everything.
"Send the three out."Dr. Lists saids
"No, it's too soon." Strucker denied
"It's what she was made for and what the twins signed up for." Dr list argued
I grabbed Pietro's hand and he grabbed Wanda's.
We then looked at each other and nodded.
Pietro let go of my hand and Wandas and picked me up bridal style.
We watched as Wanda walked off into the compound while Pietro used his speed and ran off into the tunnels and outside.
Pietro stopped an put me down.
We scouted for people when I saw someone.
"Him" I pointed to a man holding an bow and arrow.
Pietro smiled at me before running and catching a arrow the man had just shot.
The man was about to fire again when Pietro knocked him down towards the snow.
"You didn't see that coming?"
"Um clearly not Pietro, I mean he's on the ground." I replied laughing at the man on the ground.

"What even is he? A hunter."
"Maybe, I mean he does have a bow and arrow."
I looked at the man in the snow before glancing at Pietro.
I felt myself being lifted before the world quickly became a blur.
Pietro put me on the ground.
Pietro turned to me and smiled "Do your thing."
I smiled before I looked up into the sky and made it snow hard, you could barely see anything, but yet I could see just fine.
"I want you to take down Mr. America."
Pietro smiled at me before speeding off.
"Enhanced?" A broad voice said, he sounded almost Australian.
"He's a blur"
I could here the American accent, it was man, and Pietro had definitely knocked the man off his two feet.
Pietro had suddenly appeared infront of me "come on we gotta head back inside the compound to meet up with Wanda, before they get the scepter."
I looked at him " that's what they're after?"
"Apparently, I overheard them talking out it, the big blonde kind haired brute and the man with the shield."
I looked at Pietro " well times a wasting."
Pietro picked me up and ran back inside the tunnel and into the compound.
"So where are we supposed to meet up with Wanda again?"
"The underground lab."
"We have second enhance, female, do not engage."
I could hear the mans voice, "Wanda must've attacked him." I said to Pietro
He smiled and grabbed my arm before walking/ dragging me towards the door to the lab.
We walked down the small staircase and spotted Wanda staring at the man who was about to grab the scepter.
Pietro was about to stop him when Wanda put her hand on his chest stopping him.
"You're just going to let him take it" he whispered at his sister
I looked at the man as his suit hand appeared and he snatched the scepter, I then looked at the twins, Pietro looked confused while Wanda had a evil look on her face as she watched the interaction.

"We have to get out of here before he spots us." I said
The twins looked at me before nodding and we all ran upstairs and out of the compound.
Pietro had picked me up bridal style and Wanda hopped onto his back.
"Hold on tight." He said as Wanda gripped his shoulders tighter.
With that we were off as he ran across the small city of sokovia.
Pietro stopped running and started to breathe heavily "we're here."
Wanda hopped off his back and Pietro had placed me on my feet as we looked at the small hotel.
"We'll be staying here for the time being." Pietro stated as he grabbed our hands and walked into the hotel.
We were in the lobby, the building was lighted with chandlers and there was four couches in the centre of the room.
We walked towards the grit desk and the man smiled at the three of us.
"We'd like a room, three beds please." Wanda said
The man went onto his computer and frowned " I'm sorry we only have two rooms available at the time and they both have one bed."
I looked at the man closely before looking at his name tag.
'Jerry'
"Listen jerry, we'll take both rooms then."
The man smiled before handing us the keys to the two rooms. " here you three go, your rooms are 307 and 301, enjoy your stay."
We got in the elevator and pressed level 3
"So how is the room arrangement going to work?" Pietro asked
"I'll take one room and you two can have the other." Wanda said taking the key that said 301.
"But he's your brother, you share a room with him." I complained
Wanda looked at me with a blank stare before smiling " I've been living with him since birth, it's your turn to room up with him."
"You two realize I'm right here." Pietro stated.
"Fine, Pietro and I will share a room." I gave in and watched as Wanda smiled.
The elevator doors suddenly opened and the three of us exited, I watched as Wanda walked left down towards the end of the hallway while Pietro and I headed right towards our room.
"I'm really surprised they didn't have any rooms available with two beds." Pietro said as I unlocked the door and stepped inside.
I shrugged "it must be a busy travel time."
Pietro laughed "sokovia is never busy."
I smiled at him before running at the bed.
"do you think we'll see the Avengers again?" I asked
Pietro used his speed and was now on the bed laying beside me. " I know this isn't the last we'll see of them."
I turned my body towards Pietro and looked at his eyes which were staring at me " I'm afraid one of us will get hurt."
Pietro moved his body so it was closer to me, he wrapped his muscular arms around my waist pulling me towards his body "I will not let anything happen to you or Wanda."
I looked into his eyes, the vibrant blue stared at me with an intense look, a look of determination.
I know Pietro, that's what scares me the most.
My thoughts drifted off, I didn't want anything bad happening to him because of me.
"Promise me Pietro"
"Promise you what?" He asked brushed a strand of my blonde hair out of my face
"That you won't protect me, you will only protect yourself and Wanda."
Pietro cupped my face with his hands " Willow I can't do that"
"Promise me Pietro!"
Pietro looked defeated " I. I promise."
The hesitation scared me, but once he had said that he promised I knew he would back down, Pietro wasn't the one to break a promise.
"It's getting late, temptress."
I smiled snuggling into his chest. " Pietro, can you hold me, just this once?"
The vibrating of his chest made me smile, I knew he was laughing at me. " you don't even have to ask, goodnight temptress."
"Good night Pietro."

At The Precipice
Defenseless. Scared. Alone. That describes the life of Brock Carter as of late. Following his ‘death’ at the hands of a vicious magpie, Brock is rescued by the machinations of the newly instated, all-powerful System and thrust knee-deep into a brutal world catered only to the strong. Fluctuating between two states of being and trapped within a city ravaged by time, he is told to either seek out the mysterious ‘Source’, or die trying. He just hopes he can do it without scuffing his expensive suit in the process. ***** Honestly, I've just always wanted to write a story. I had a crack at it a few years back, but the entire thing fell apart before it even began. At The Precipice was originally written as a way for me to destress and play with System elements and characters, but eventually I decided that if I was gonna write, why not post it too? Writing's just a hobby of mine, so don't expect this to be at published novel level, I guess, or even anything of relative polish. Updates every Mon-Tues-Wed-Thurs-Fri Average chapter length is 2000 - 3000 words ***** What to expect: - A semi-comedic/light tone, mixed in with a gritty world and brutal survival (not ever grimdark though) - An MC that thinks about what he's going to do and why he'll do it, even if his internal logic is lacking. Is a rather rational person, not often influenced by his emotions, but can be in extreme situations. - A plot heavily focused upon the MC, but one that will branch off to envelope the other characters in the world at times. Often, it's just other people's perspectives of him. - A story of power growth. While the MC is certainly going to be powerful, even over 100 chapters in from what I've written, he still isn't the strongest being on Earth, let alone the entire Multiverse. - Lots of gore, vivid fight descriptions, and often times deaths of people, some even somewhat important to the story ***** Things this story will never have: - Harems - An edgy, villainous MC - An MC that does jackshit about things for 'plot reasons'

The Summoned - Complete
In a world of magic, ruled by many warring races, the human kingdoms are being pushed to the brink of collapse. In a desperate bid to gain the strength to stand on an equal footing with the other nations, they perform a forbidden ritual to summon combat slaves from another dimension. Unluckily for them, Mors Letus, recently named by their world's God of Death, was one of them. **** Warning **** This is a re-release (The Summoned) of the first book I wrote in partnership with my brother (who later forced the story to be pulled (It was released on his account here)). I have started writing my own version of the story (BOM: The Summoned) and will continue to primarily invest in that, though, now I have permission to re-release this one, I plan finish this as I have the drafts and it was close to the end of the first book. Many characters/scenes and events match/Will match BOM: The Summoned, especially in future arc's (Past Flatner forest). If you don't like spoilers, don't want to get confused between the two stories or hate first attempts at writing (god awful grammar/sentence structure and storytelling), I would advise against reading.
