It was 3 days after the attack on the compound and Pietro, Wanda and I were still hiding out at the hotel, waiting for something to happen.
It was morning and I woke up before Pietro, Pietro and I had grown even closer, and the feelings that I have had for him when I met him 3 months ago started to grow even more.
I smiled and looked to my right to see Pietro's sleeping face, his hands curled underneath his head and his feet sprawled out like he was about to run.
I quickly shoved him off the bed and he landed on the floor with a loud thump.
"Ow" he muttered.
I couldn't stop laughing, that was probably the funniest thing to happen to me this whole week.
Whoosh
I was suddenly pressed against the bed with Pietro straddling me, he had never made a move this close to me before.
His face was almost completely touching mine and he smirked " you think that's funny?"
I couldn't speak, hell I could barely even breathe.
"Umm, yeah."
He smiled at me before looking at my lips then my eyes.
He swooped down and pressed his lips against mine.
My eyes instantly closed at the contact, my hands went into his hair and his hands around my waist as we kissed.
It was pure silence expect for the sound of us kissing.
I pulled away and Pietro looked at me with a smile.
"I like you Willow."
I smiled back returning feeling " I like you too Pietro."
He pulled me into his lap as he sat up on the bed and brought his lips back to mine.
He had the perfect lips, they were plump and pink and so kissable.
"Guys are you ready to go?"
I quickly pulled away from Pietro to answer Wanda who was on the other side of the door.

"Yeah, we'll be out in a minute!" I yelled back
I looked at Pietro before smiling and pecking his lips "come on, your sister is waiting."
Pietro returned the smile gently removing me off his lap and back on the bed.
"I'll be a second temptress" He said and used his speed and like he said a second or three later he was changed and ready to leave.
"I'll meet you guys outside the room" I stated as I went to go get changed.
Pietro nodded before exiting the small hotel room.
I changed into a tank top and one of Pietro's blue flannels before putting on my black skinny jeans and combat boots.
I left the hotel room and smiled at Wanda and Pietro.
"So where are we going exactly?" I asked
" I received a call late last night, I thought it was the hotel calling about something, but it was a man, he wants to meet us at this church." Wanda explained as she pulled out a map and showed us where she had drawn a red circle over the spot.
"When does he want to meet?" I asked
"Around 11 tonight." Wanda stated
I looked at Pietro and then at Wanda " sounds okay, but I guess we have some time to spare."
"Why don't we go out for some breakfast?" Pietro asked
" you mean lunch, it's 1:30 you guys slept the day away." Wanda remarked
I blushed while Pietro smirked.
"I'm okay with lunch, what about you?" Pietro asked me.
"I'm fine with it." I shrugged
Wanda smiled before clapping her hands " let's go."
Wanda had led us down the hall way towards the elevator.
I felt hands grab my waist and pull me back, I left out a silent yelp and looked at Pietro.
"What?" I whispered
He smiled before picking at the collar of the flannel shirt " you look hot in my shirt." He whispered in my ear.

The blush had returned and I flashed a shy smile at Pietro before making a mad dash to catch up with Wanda who was now stepping into the elevator.
Speed forward
It was 11:00, Wanda, Pietro and I were walking towards the church, we walked past the somewhat busy streets and last the fences.
We walked in, Pietro leading us while I was behind him and Wanda behind me.
"Talk and if you're wasting our time-"Wanda started but was cut off by the man.
"Did you know this church is in the exact center of the city? The elders decreed it so that everyone could be equally close to God. I like that, the geometry of belief... You're wondering why you can't look inside my head." He said
Pietro and I both looked at Wanda silently watching the interaction
"Sometimes it's hard. But sooner or later every man shows himself." She smirked
The man stood up the red blanket falling off of him revealing he was a robot.
"Oh, I'm sure they do. But you needed something more than a man. That's why you let stark take the scepter."he said
"I didn't expect, but I saw Starks fear. I knew it would control him, make him self destruct." She replied
"Everyone creates the thing they dread. Men of peace create engines of war, invaders create avengers, people create, smaller people... Uh... Children, I lost the word there, children. Designed to supplant themselves, to help them end."
"Is that why you've come, to end the avengers?" I asked
"I've come to save the world. But also... Yeah."
We smiled at the robot, he knew what we wanted, or at least what the twins wanted.
Because I wanted something a bit different then the twins, and sooner or later he would find out.
Speed forward
The robot, who we learned was Ultron led us back to the compound and into the underground lab.
"We'll move out right away. This is a start, but there's something we need to begin the real work" Ultron said as he watched the robots work.
"All of these are..." Wanda started
"Me. I have what the avengers never will. Harmony. They're discordant. Disconnected. Starks already got them turning on each other's. And when you get inside the rest of their heads..."
"Everyone's plan is not to kill them" pietro interrupted.
"And make them martyrs? You need patience. Need to see the big picture." Ultron concluded
" I don't see the big picture. I have a little picture. I take it out and look at it, everyday." Pietro explained as Ultron looked at him.
"You lost your parents in the bombings. I've seen the records"
"The records are not the picture."
"Pietro." Wanda warned
"No, please" Ultron said wanting Pietro to continue his story.
"We were 10 years old. Having dinner, the four of us. When the first shell hits, two floors below, it makes a hole in the floor. It's big. Our parents go in. And the whole building starts coming apart. I grab her, roll under the bed, and the second shell hits. But it doesn't go off. It just... Sits there in the rubble. Three feet from our faces. And on the side of the shell, painted one word." Pietro paused
"Stark" Wanda said grimly.
"We were trapped for two days." Pietro continued
"Every effort to save us, every shift in the bricks, I think 'this will set it off.' We waited for two days for tony stark to kill us." Wanda ended
"I know what they are" Pietro added
Ultron then looked at me.
"What about you... Willow Darwin, what's your story." Ultron asked
I took a deep breath as the I began my story.

Sinner's Resolve: An Agent's Wish
A demon that had never batted an eye while mercilessly reaping the lives of many. A prodigy who accomplished the impossible. A hero that dutifully followed his orders. A messiah of the people. Many titles were given to him, whether it be in praise or in fear, but only one thing could be agreed upon by the people...All who he had ever crossed paths with had met an untimely death. He slowly rose to the top and earned himself the name of Black Death. A nameless person who was eventually awarded a cursed and bloodied name... Must this continue?...... He stared at his hands before turning his gaze towards his next three targets. Their photographs were neatly aligned along his makeshift table, accompanying him inside of a dimly lit room. Each one of them had earned their seat as the best special agents within their respective organizations. There must be a way...There has to be a way... Shaking away his thoughts, he quietly pocketed away the photos before exiting the room. A chance meeting that would forever change his cruel fate, and a wish that would transcend worlds. This is the story of a man who had nothing yet lost everything but a single wish, a silver lining that would completely change his life. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author's Notes - Hello everyone! This is my first work and I will hopefully stay around for a while. I will try to finish or at least expand on this piece of work for quite some time, expect a few hiatuses in between though, still have a bit of schooling to do. Expected release dates will probably be once a week(not sure yet) after I stabilized the novel a bit as I'm still debating on how I should handle this. I prefer fleshed-out works compared to quick releases, but it also depends on how I'm feeling. I don't have a lot of confidence in my writing skills and I believe that my writing style is a bit weird, but I do want to try my best to tell a story that's worth telling. I will gladly accept criticism but please try to pull the punches back a bit! I'm still only human after all. Very excited to work on this, please take good care of me as I proceed on this journey with all of you! P.S. If you're going into my series, expect to see cliches sprinkled here and there. I personally love cliches and a few tropes! But, that goes without saying, I want to put my own spin on them. Be ready to feel the edge!!! Heh.

STAY DOWN |2020|
A/N: I was like 19 when I wrote this book. It's not my best work. 😭 Genesis Carter and Jeremiah "East" Wright thought that they had life all figured out until they met each other. Their romance was slow but sure, bringing a world of chaos along with it. Will they defy the odds and hold each other down? Or will unfortunate circumstances break them apart?
