The Avengers and SHIELD agents were back in their universe. Takeda, Hunter, and Stark back alive, thankfully. Maven was walking along outside of the Avengers Tower, thinking.

He was glad to be home. Maven looked around, enjoying the freedom. He never noticed the people sneaking up on him. The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants had heard of Maven, and wanted him to join them.

One of the Brotherhood members pulled out a length of cloth and began to choke Maven with it, gagging him. Maven reached for the cloth, trying to get himself free.

He couldn't, it was too tight around his neck. Maven's wrists were restrained. He was dragged off.

"We got him boss," Quill said as he entered with Maven. Magneto looked up, "Good...good." Maven glared at Magento. "What is your name?" Magneto asked. Maven glared, wishing he could bite his head off.

Magneto reached forward and undid the gag, "Your name." Maven tried to bite him. Maven growled at him. "He's a feisty one" Callisto said. Maven growled at her.

"See what I mean," Callisto said. Magneto nodded in agreement. Maven growled at Magneto again. "Gag him," Magneto commanded. Callisto and Quill nodded and moved forward.

They grabbed and roll of duct tape and taped his moth shut. Maven glared at him.

Maven was chained in a cell, when a silver haired man who looked a lot like Pietro entered. "Pietro?" "How do you know him?" "He's my brother" The man blinked at him.

"Pietro does not have a brother," the man mused. Maven frowned in confusion. "Who are you?" He asked. The man did not answer. "Who are you?!" Maven repeated.

Again, the man did not answer. "Answer me! Who are you?!" Maven yelled. Maven recieved no answer. He growled. "I'm his father" The man said quietly. Maven's jaw fell open in shock.

"You're...his father?" The man nodded. "Whats your name?" Maven asked. "Peter Maximoff" Maven looked down. "Why do you look like my son?"

"I uh...I'm his clone." "His clone?" Peter asked. Maven nodded. "How did that happen?" Peter wondered aloud. Maven shrugged, "HYDRA." Peter frowned, "HYDRA created you?"

Peter frowned deeper, his son had a clone created by HYDRA. "So you're HYDRA," Peter said harshly. "Don't. Call. Me. Hydra" Maven growled. "You were created by them. You're their construct."

Maven violently pulled at his restraints. Peter took a step back. Maven growled menacingly at him. Peter shook his head and ran off. Maven didn't care if this guy was the father of Pietro and Wanda.

He had no right to call Maven a 'HYDRA construct'. Maven was a person. Not a construct. No one would ever make him think differently.

Meanwhile, Peter wandered around. His son had a clone made by HYDRA. It wouldn't have bothered him that much under normal circumstances, but it was HYDRA.

"Damn HYDRA construct," Peter muttered. He shook his head and headed off. Maybe this clone could help him find Pietro and Wanda. "Where are my children?" Peter demanded as he walked into Maven's cell.

"I would tell you but I'm just a HYDRA construct" Maven said sarcastically. "Tell me where they are!" Peter growled. "Hmm," Maven pretended to contemplate that.

"No" Maven growled. Peter growled lowly. "They are my children! Tell me where they are!" He shouted. "Make me" Maven challenged. Peter approached him.

"Tell. Me. Where. They. Are!" "Make me," Maven sang. Peter grabbed him by the collar, "Tell me where my damn children are!" "I'm not telling you where they are," Maven smirked.

A explosion came from outside. He whipped his head around to see what had happened.

"It's the Avengers" Callisto said. Maven smirked upon hearing it was his friends.

Peter ran out upon hearing who it was. As he got out to the hallway and looked around, Psylocke snuck up on him. She knocked him out telekinetically.

Pietro ran to Maven. He quickly freed his clone/brother. "You okay?" Pietro asked in concern.

"I'm fine" Pietro hugged him, "Let's go." Maven looked at Peter and said" That your dad?"

Pietro looked at him and nodded. "He called me a construct of HYDRA" Maven said his voice breaking.

"You're not a construct of HYDRA," Pietro said firmly. Maven sniffled and looked down.

Pietro hugged him tightly, "You. Are. A. Person." Maven sniffled and hugged back tightly.

Wanda ran in. "Maven!" She cried. She joined the hug. Maven sniffled as he was hugged by his siblings.

"Let's get out of here," Maven mumbled.
