"And I just need enough of you to dull the pain
Just to get me through the night 'til we're twins again
'Till we're stripped down to our skeletons again
'Till we're saints just swimming in our sins again"
- Twin Skeletons (Hotel in NYC) by Fall Out Boy
Wanda Maximoff's life was always changing but one thing had always been a constant. Pietro. From the day they were born, nothing could separate the twins. They were an unstoppable force together.
At the age of18, HYDRA came into the picture. The twins had no one but themselves and were offered a large sum of money to be test subjects for HYDRA. It was a painful process and both of them suffered greatly through it. Despite this, the twins still strongly believed it was worth it. They could protect each other even better now
At the age of 19, the twins escaped HYDRA and met the being named Ultron. At first, the two were wary but the robot seemed strangely...compassionate towards the two. Wanda didn't trust him but he promised them vengeance and seemed to care for them so she tolerated him. That mistake cost her greatly
The day before their 20th birthday, the two Maximoff siblings became one. Pietro died saving Clint Barton and a young child. For the first time in her life, Wand experienced true, raw pain and rage. Like a machine, she let it fuel her. She wanted revenge against Ultron! She wanted him to know her pain! He'd killed her brother and he would pay the price.
At the age of 20, Wanda pretended she was okay. She forced herself to smile and pretended to be recovering but nothing could truly heal the hole left by such a lost. She'd hadn't just lost her twin; she'd lost half of her soul. The Avengers seemed welcoming enough but there was still obvious distrust towards her. He most hospitable of all was Steve Rogers. The sweet Captain made everything to try and make Wanda feel welcomed. He'd lost someone close to himself, she could see it in his eyes and nightmares. He understood her pain to some extent.
At the age of 20 years and 3 months, Wanda wrote a note. It contained only a few words; 'I am going to join my brother. Thank you for helping me'. Her name was signed at the bottom
At precisely 03:00am on the 12th June, 2015; The Witch's white bed covers became as scarlet as her name as she lay motionless with a gun in her hand. It wasn't for another hour until the dear sweet Captain she called friend found her body.
At the age of 20, Wanda Maximoff and Pietro Maximoff became twins again
