Hey guys? I need a little help.
The name's Heidi. I'm a college student, freshman, in a university in the US. I won't say where.
Basically what it boils down to is that I was hanging out in my dorm room (it's a Saturday, all my friends went home), playing around on my computer, when BAM I hear a really weird noise that resembles the Tardis in no small amount. Naturally I look around, and bang! There's a random person in my room, looking very lost and more than a little worried.
Well first of all my friends are out of town. Second of all the door was closed and locked and I know for a fact my roommate also went home for the weekend, which means that this person Apparated in or had a spare key- neither of which seems very likely.
So I'm going for my pepper spray to ask this lady where she came from, because HOLY SHIT SOMEONE JUST APPEARED IN MY ROOM, when I get a proper look at her face. Anyone seen Avengers: Age of Ultron? Yeah, you probably know where I'm going with this.
Young woman, short-ish, long brown curly hair, wearing a black dress and leggings and a red jacket with some serious eyeliner.
Ladies and gentlemen, my life has officially become a fanfiction. Which is, of course, why I'm posting it on here.
Wanda frickin' Maximoff somehow managed to jump universes and land, of all places, in my dorm room. My life cannot get any weirder. (it better not, at least…)
Anyways, after I quit flipping my lid, I ended up asking her who she was and what she was doing here. I was going to feign innocence as to who she was, but that kinda sorta went out the window when she saw the various Avengers memorabilia scattered around my room.
So I like Captain America. Sue me.
It's taken a while to explain what's going on- on both ends. Turns out it was a training exercise on her end, trying to see what all she's capable of, which is a helluva lot. I'm not too surprised, honestly, but she did seem pretty startled to realize she wasn't in her home universe, which means she's capable of cross-universe teleportation. No small feat there.
Wanda's very bright. She deduced that the Avengers were also a phenomenon here, simply from the stuff my roommate and I have lying around. She also figured out that they weren't real people pretty quickly- not sure how.
She's been here for a few hours now. It's late-ish, so I've given her my bed and am camped on the floor. She tried to teleport herself back to her universe, but it didn't work. She said she'd try again, but she may be magically exhausted (that's my bet, at least) and I don't know how long she'll be here.
With any luck, I'll post our adventures and misadventures here, for as long as she's here. Who knows, this could be a 'two-shot' if she manages to go home tomorrow. I dunno- she seemed pretty tired and upset.
Signing off-
Heidi (and Wanda frickin' Maximoff)
