Chapter 265 Twins 2
Chapter 265 Twins 2
The room was clean and extremely spacious, with bright and warm sunlight gently pouring into the room through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows like a golden veil.
The sky outside the window was an endless expanse of azure blue, so pure that it seemed to cleanse one's soul. Not even a trace of a cloud could be found.
Wanda slowly woke up, and what came into her eyes was such a refreshing scene.
However, at this moment, she was a little dazed, her thoughts were like a tangled mess, and she could not tell when and where she was.
There was a faint fragrance in the air.
The scent was very unique, and Wanda couldn't describe it exactly no matter how hard she tried, but for some reason, this unknown fragrance made her feel inexplicably at peace.
It had been so long since she had seen such a clear sky. It had also been so long since she had fallen asleep so peacefully in such a soft and comfortable bed...
Ever since her beloved adoptive parents passed away... Ever since she was forcibly taken by that mysterious doctor to that base full of unknowns and dangers...
"Pietro!" Suddenly, Wanda woke up as if struck by lightning.
She clearly remembered that she was hit head-on by the powerful magic that rebounded back. In an instant, her eyes went black and she completely lost consciousness.
There is no doubt that she must have fallen into the hands of the Avengers superheroes!
So, what about Pietro? Did he suffer the same fate as her, also captured by these sanctimonious superheroes?
Thinking of this, Wanda became extremely anxious. She ignored her physical weakness and dizziness, and staggered to her feet, looking around anxiously, and soon found the location of the door.
She stumbled towards the door.
She didn't know where this place was, but it couldn't possibly be the Avengers' base, could it? Who would treat a captive so well?
Maybe she was rescued by someone? What about Pietro? I wonder what happened to Pietro! Could it be...
Wanda didn't dare to think about it. She wanted to find the owner of this place and ask about Pietro's whereabouts.
Pietro... please don't be in any trouble!
That was her only relative...
Wanda took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then pushed the door open.
Faster than the conversation were Wanda's eyes.
The first person Wanda saw was Pietro, who was sitting on the sofa and chatting happily with several superheroes.
Seeing this scene, Wanda felt relieved but also a little confused.
Why...they...didn't she attack Captain America? Are the Avengers just some good guys?
Shouldn't they be sent to prison? Or handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D.? Or...study them like Hydra...
"How fast can you run?"
"I'm not bragging, I'm a man who's faster than the speed of sound!"
"Wow... quick is not a nice word for a man~"
"???"
"Barton, these are still children."
"Sorry sorry~"
Wanda's head seemed to be filled with paste, making her feel dizzy and completely confused.
She shook her head vigorously, trying to wake herself up, but the feeling of confusion still lingered, as if she was still immersed in a long and deep dream and had not yet woken up.
However, Wanda was keenly aware that there was no malice in the gazes of those around her who had noticed her.
She walked towards the crowd, taking one deep step and one shallow step, as if sleepwalking.
Pietro immediately saw Wanda walking towards them. He jumped up from his seat in excitement, quickly ran towards Wanda, and hugged her tightly in his arms.
An ecstatic smile instantly spread across his face, and he kept muttering, "Wanda, you're finally awake!"
"Right, let me introduce you. This is the captain, this is Dr. Banner, and this is..."
Pietro, who was a little careless, chattered endlessly about introducing Wanda.
The others also smiled kindly at Wanda.
Wanda nodded slightly in response.
Of course she could only nod, because until now she didn't know why Pietro became so familiar with the Avengers just after waking up.
Her eyes casually swept over the superheroes and some young men she didn't know, and finally lingered on Tony.
However, in this brief moment, Tony clearly captured the complex emotions contained in Wanda's eyes - resentment, anger, confusion and sadness intertwined together like a tangled mess.
Wanda rationally knew that this was the Avengers' territory, and she had to do her best to restrain the resentment and anger deep in her heart that was about to erupt like a volcano.
After all, now is not the time to vent her emotions, she needs to remain calm and rational.
At the same time, Tony also noticed Wanda's gaze on him. He already knew the past experiences of these two children.
Not only him, it can be said that everyone present has seen the information collected by Jarvis.
Therefore, when he clearly saw the resentment buried deep in Wanda's eyes, he couldn't help but feel guilty and uneasy.
He hesitated again and again, still unable to decide how to express his apology to the sensitive child.
His life path can be described as smooth and easy. He has been bathed in the meticulous care of his parents since he was a child, and his friends around him have also indulged him in every way.
Such a smooth growing environment has enabled him to maintain that high-spirited attitude even at his current age, as if the whole world is under his control.
A man like Tony, who has always been proud, confident and even a little conceited, rarely bows his head and admits his mistakes to others solemnly.
He hesitated for a long time, then said carefully, "Wanda, I'm really happy to see you recover... As for what happened in the past, I deeply apologize."
When these words came out of Tony's mouth, they seemed a bit stiff and too official, but they contained too much true feelings, which made people who knew Tony see his sincerity.
But Wanda didn't understand, she just felt her anger rising uncontrollably.
Wanda froze in place instantly, unable to move as if under a spell.
She stared at the man in front of her with wide eyes, her lips trembling slightly, but she couldn't say a word.
Her heart was like a surging ocean, with all kinds of complex emotions intertwined to form a powerful storm - contradictions and anger collided and entangled with each other.
Wanda knew very well that Tony might not have meant to hurt her and Pietro's adoptive parents.
What's worse, he didn't even know who her adoptive parents were.
However, the fact is that it was because of the powerful weapons made by Tony that their adoptive parents died innocently and left this world forever.
Her happy and loving family was shattered in an instant, leaving her and Pietro at a loss as to how to pick up the pieces.
Faced with this sudden apology, Wanda felt it was extremely ironic.
Could a simple, insincere apology bring her deceased adoptive parents back to life?! This was obviously impossible!
Pietro, who had been standing silently beside Wanda, noticed his sister's drastic emotional fluctuations.
He gently reached out and held Wanda's hand tightly, trying to convey a little warmth and strength to her in order to soothe her wounded heart.
He was at a loss to the extreme!
At the beginning, he was no different from Wanda, full of hatred and anger towards Tony Stark, as if there was a raging fire burning in his heart.
At the moment he woke up, he was like a ferocious beast, exuding strong aggressiveness.
However, it was these superheroes who gradually calmed his inner turmoil with their warm and caring words.
Their gentleness like the warm spring breeze and their sincere and friendly attitude made him almost forget the hatred buried deep in his heart.
He has always been cared for by his sister and grew up in a relatively stable environment.
Therefore, compared to Wanda, he appears to be more rational and clear-headed.
Although he knew very well in his heart that the blame for all this did not lie with Tony Stark, the ones who should really be hated were those who provoked the war and created the disaster.
It’s a pity that in his heart, Wanda occupies a much more important position than others.
Whatever Wanda said, he would choose to believe and follow without hesitation.
So when Wanda decided that Tony Stark was their sworn enemy, he resolutely followed her and joined the Hydra camp without hesitation.
Even though he knew that such behavior was wrong, he was still willing to put it into practice for Wanda.
The superheroes standing by saw the tense atmosphere between Wanda and Tony. They were anxious and wanted to break the suffocating deadlock.
So they racked their brains to think of how to persuade the two to resolve their past grievances.
But unfortunately, faced with such a complicated and difficult situation, I didn’t know where to start.
"You hate Tony? Because you think Tony killed your parents?" Ron didn't understand Wanda's logic.
I didn't quite understand it when I saw their archival materials.
It was only because of Tony's guilty look and the other superheroes who obviously thought the same thing that he didn't say anything in rebuttal.
"...Shouldn't I hate him?" Wanda stiffly shifted her gaze away from Tony and looked at the young boy.
She had the impression that it was this boy who bounced back her attack.
"Instead of hating the people who started the war, the instigators behind it, you vent your anger on those who researched weapons?"
Ron really couldn't understand what Wanda was thinking.
"If he hadn't researched those weapons! If he hadn't sold the weapons! How could the war have broken out!" Wanda had obviously gotten stuck in a dead end.
"Huh?" Ron thought he had heard the funniest joke ever.
He looked at Wanda with scrutiny, and after a moment, he suddenly realized.
"I see... You're just a bully."
His tone was full of nonchalance.
"What did you say!" Wanda glared at Ron.
Pietro glared at Ron as well.
Although he knew that what Ron said seemed to be the truth, he didn't like others saying that about Wanda.
"Isn't that so? Isn't it because you couldn't find the instigator and subconsciously avoided the person who started the war that you vented your anger on Tony, who was innocent in this matter?"
Ron looked so surprised, and it was so fake that you could tell he was doing it on purpose.
He didn't even wait for Wanda to retort, or for him to say he didn't want to hear it.
"Because Tony is Iron Man, a superhero, and a good guy, no matter how you hurt him, as long as you have a reason, you can be forgiven, right?"
"Isn't that what you think, Miss Wanda?"
"Since you hate Tony, why don't you hate the shop owner who sells kitchen knives? In war, aren't kitchen knives considered weapons?"
"Oh, it's because you don't feel pain unless the knife cuts you, right?"
"Stark Industries itself develops weapons, and it's not just Stark Industries that develops weapons, right?"
"Please, don't be naive. Even if there's no Stark Industries, there will be Rogers Industries and Banner Industries, okay?"
"I hope you know that war will not change because of someone's intervention, nor will it stop because of the lack of weapons. If there are no Stark weapons, there will be weapons from other countries."
"I deeply sympathize with your situation, but this is not a reason for you to attack Tony."
Ron raised his hand with a smile, and in his hand was a ball of dark red energy, exactly the same as the aura on Wanda.
Steve and the others' expressions instantly became serious, and they looked at Wanda and Pietro with some disbelief and disappointment.
They moved their bodies and blocked Tony behind them, but did not attack Wanda and the others.
Pietro was stunned. He didn't know what Wanda had done. Patton's somewhat disappointed look made him stand uneasy.
He wanted to explain, but he didn't know what to say.
That Wanda didn't intend to harm Mr. Tony Stark? That he didn't know when Wanda made her move? That...what could he say?
Pietro could only stand beside Wanda in silence.
"No...no..." Wanda was distracted and didn't care that her backup plan would be discovered. Ron's words seemed to reveal her ridiculous and hypocritical persistence.
Ron's words were harsh, but they were undoubtedly correct.
But this made Wanda's life full of hatred seem to lose its direction in an instant.
As for her back-up plan, after she came out of the room, she secretly controlled her energy and stayed in the dark, waiting for these superheroes to relax and then send them into the illusion.
I didn't expect to be discovered.
"Ron is right, this witch, no, Miss Mutant." Draco and Harry came out of the elevator with cold eyes.
Following behind was Peter Parker, who had no idea what was going on, looked confused and excited about meeting his idol.
