Prologue
MNMNMNMNMNMNMNMNMN
Waiting outside the delivery room, Pietro was worried, the doctor have kicked him out. Why? They have yet to explain to him.
Sitting down with his twin sister anda friend. All Pietro could do was worried to death. Before he'd meet Crystalia Amaquelin, his Crystal, Pietro had nothing to fear, save his twin's temper and magic. He's been a free willy in his teenage year. Wondering the world with no fear, except for those unexpected surprises, but even then, his ego got the better of him. He loved danger, he'd loved to run, and most of all, he'd love to flirt.
That was before he had meet Cyrstal, the beautiful redhead, who dyed her hair blond, just to make him happy. She did not mind his mutation, then again, neither were others. But he felt as if she's been keeping a secret from him. That's why they did not married, even after knowing that they were going to be parents. Pietro, he have nothing to hide from her. Not even all his Exes.
A hand landed on his shoulder, Pietro looked up to see a pair of Sapphire eyes that belongs to his one and only twin. Of all the people in the world, Wanda was the only one how understands how he feel. They were two of a kind, even if they have their differences and history.
Wanda have lost her children while on the Avengers, he wasn't a part of it, he was on vacation. But the Avengers have told him that his newfews were not real, they were only the gifts from Dr. Strange, who'd taken Wanda in to train her with her magic. He was like a third father to Wanda, the best she have ever had. Why the Avengers took her children away... she was endangering the Earth and the Universe by keeping her boys existences with her magics. He'd known from the start that Wanda should never get involve with that Vision guy, no... that robot rather. He'd done nothing but hurt his sister's feelings and magics.
Pietro look at Wanda. She is also very worry, he could tell, but she's also trying to calm him with the smile that had always make him feel better when they were children. She'd haven't smiled like that since before she was put away by their father. Wanda remembers that tragic part of her, but she was willingly forgive their father after training with Dr. Strange.
Pietro tried his best to smile, but before he could lie to his sister again. The doctor came out from the door. Dr. Reyes was not smiling, nor was she crying. What's going on. John, Pietro's pyromatic friend, and his twin's boyfriend stood up and walked to the doctor.
"What's the news, doc?" John asked, trying to keep himself calm.
Pietro look at the doctor, who was walking straight toward him, he stiffened, but stood up. Looking at the woman's blue eyes, he knows the answer. The baby didn't make it.
Wanda walked pass the doctor and ignored the all the other doctors and nurses who are staring at her. She walked toward the table where they keptthe baby. It was a girl, her niece, and she's not breathing.
Closing her eyes, she have never tried this before. Wanda put her hands together, quickly and quietly muttering, as if praying. Truely, the Scarlet Witch is chanting a spell.
Pietro walks up to her while everyone else stayed afar. Wanda was trying to save his child.
Blue sparkes then circled the room, they entered the baby's body. Wanda look at Pietro's, she'd pulled something from the inside of his body and placed it her niece's body. One last thing, Wanda thought as her concentrations deepened. It was a full moon, which is a good thing, since Wanda would be able to take as much spirits from the moon as possible, and she doesn't need much to save her niece. Wanda was now floating in the air with the baby, a piece of the moon's spirit, it replaced the baby's missing spirit.
The baby was slowly placed back on the table and Wanda begin to beath again, at the same time, so was her niece. Everyone around them were bewildered and astonished. Wanda gave a weak smile and collasped, "She lives."
Pietro quickly pick his sister's body up before she could hit hard on the ground, and held her tight. "Thank you, dearest Sister."
All Wanda need is some rest, and she'd regain full strength before tomorrow hit. He handed his twin to John, who would take her back to her apartment. The nurses insisted that they stayed here, but Pietro and John knows Wanda hates the hospital, so they declined.
Pietro turned his attention back to his daughter. A daughter. He smiled. His girlfriend was fast asleep. The moon was full and shiny. Pietro have seen that Wanda have taken something from the moon. He doesn't know what he wanted to name their child... nor does Crystal. He look up to the moon, who would soon be a big part of his daughter's life. Luna Pietro thought. "The bright and shiny moon of mine."
He'd learned in High School that Luna means moon in some lanuguage, but forgotten which. He watches as the doctors take his girl away and properly care for her. He would name her Luna. Pietro knows that Crystal would agree, and Wanda would love it.

The next morning, John and Wanda were back at the hospital. John was hungry, so he went to grab something, because they went straight here after she woke up. She saw Pietro near the room, where they keep all newborns.
The white hair speedy was touching the glassed window with his bare fingers, looking at the craddle Luna is in. He smiled when he notice his sister from the corner of his eyes. Wanda could see his anticipations, he can't wait to get his--and Crystal's daughter out of this place, and Wanda can't wait to stop coming to this place.
Wanda followed Pietro's gaze and spotted the blond haired baby at craddle number 38 with the name L. Maximoff, not far from them.
"Thanks again, Wanda." Pietro said quietly, just loud enough for her to hear.
Wanda turn to face him and smiled, "You're welcome, brother. Just don't hog her when I come over for visits."
He let out a soft laugh, "I would never do such a thing. You are her savior, her aunt, my sister."
Wanda wanted to roll her eyes at his last comment, but decided against it. "So, what's her name. Did you name it after me?"
Pietro could tell she was teasing him about naming his daughter after her. He rolled his eyes at her, "As much as I love to, but there's only one Wanda that I could ever love in this world. Two would be a problem."
"I feel like giving you a noogie, Pietro. But I haven't eat and I don't have the enegry to put up a fight." Wanda let out a tiresome sigh.
"It's Luna, I named her Luna." Pietro said and saw Wanda gleamed. He was right, she does love the name, very much.
"That's no surprise, she's a part of the moon," Wanda said and continued on knowing that Pietro might be confuse. "Her soul was gone, Pietro. It went somewhere, where? I can't really figure out, but I will find out. So, I took a part of your soul and an amount of the moon, because the moon is full of life whether you believe it or not. Together, yours and the moon's soul or spirit if you'd like to call it, is a part of her. She a part of you and the moon."
Wanda smirked at Pietro's confusing looks, but knew she shouldn't be smiling, thousands of questions will follow.
"What is this about a missing spirit?" Pietro asked, "I don't understand much about these magic things, so please explain. Is it a mutant who have stoled my daughter's spirit?"
"Like I said before, Pietro, I don't know who or what have taken Luna's soul. But I will find it. I'll use my magic to track it, even if it takes the rest of my life."
"Don't, we'll find out eventually, so don't waste your time." Pietro said softly. "There's something else..." Pietro continued on quickly, knowing that his sister could follow his words. "Why didn't you take a part of Crystal's spirit and place it in Luna?"
Wanda knew that question was coming, she feared it. Well, she doesn't exactly fear it, but saying, because I don't trust her or her kind, the Inhumans was it? Also, my magic tells me that something is wrong with her and that she's involved with yesterday's event. And that I don't trust using her spirit to bring back my neice, even if she's the mother, was not the way to tell her brother why. Nor could she lie to him by saying that she doesn't have enough energy, and that might kill her.
So Wanda kept quiet, Pietro was waiting, she wanted to get off that subject. "She's very beautiful, Luna will love you more than anyone will ever love you."
Pietro stare at Wanda, he could tell why she'd changed the subject. Wanda and Crystal were never the best of friend. He's seen when they were alone in a room, he could even feel the intensity of the girls hate and anger after he went to check on them. He sighed and nod, "She is, must of gotten it from me."
Wanda rolled her eyes. That was when John came with some breakfest for them to share.

Facts and Fictions: Wanda using her magic to save Luna, that is not a fact, I just made it up. Wanda going to Dr. Strange for training, I kinda made that up as well. He did wanted to train her in the comic-verse, but she refused the offer, because she was too busy with being her mother, wife, and a hero. All the names I've used in this chapter are Marvel comic books characters; including Dr. Reyes. Crystal is indeed a wife of Pietro, I believe she did have trouble giving birth to their daughter, Luna, as well.
Disclaimers: I do not own Pietro Maximoff (Quicksilver), Laura (X-23), Luna, Scarlet Witch, Pyro, Crystal or any other characters that are belonged to Marvel Comics that I've mentioned in this chapter/story. So if you wish to sue, go elsewhere, because all I can give you is my Mental Disorders...
