Can't Take My Eyes Off You

by Openbook71

Taken into custody and thrown into The Raft, and left to spend the rest of their lives trapped and forgotten under the ocean. Wanda has started to crack under the conditions, and is starting to wonder why she is trying so hard to survive anymore, when she thinks she has nothing left to live for. One android (who's more human than android) shows up to help her in her time of need.

1. The Raft

Chapter One

"Can't take my eyes off you~ Lady Antebellum"

I know that the bridges that I've burned

Along the way

Have left me with these walls and these scars

That won't go away

And opening up has always been the hardest thing

Until you came

So lay here beside me just hold me and don't let go

This feelin' I'm feelin' is somethin' I've never known

And I just can't take my eyes off you

And I just can't take my eyes off you

I love when you tell me that I'm pretty

When I just wake up

And I love how you tease me when I'm moody

But it's never too much

I'm falling fast but the truth is I'm not scared at all

You climbed my walls

So lay here beside me just hold me and don't let go

This feelin' I'm feelin' is somethin' I've never known

And I just can't take my eyes off you

And I just can't take my eyes off you

Off you

Off you

So lay here beside me just hold me and don't let go

This feelin' I'm feelin' is somethin' I've never known

And I just can't take my eyes off you

And I just can't take my eyes off you

Drip...Drip... Drip...

*Oh shit the guard is back*

*If he presses that button again...*

*I got to get out of here. I have to protect her!*

"Hey kid, answer one of us. I need to know you're okay. Come on you just have to hold out a little longer I promise."

At this point I have just become so numb I can't tell if they are even here nevermind talking to me anymore. I'm too lost inside my own head trying to stay away from all the memories being tapped into by being trapped here in The Raft. I feel like I'm trapped back at that HYDRA lab all over again, but the only differences this time is that for one Pietro is missing, and two these guys are trying to supress my powers instead of trying to awaken them.

I feel so alone and cold, nevermind the ever growing sensation of claustrophobia I feel. It doesn't help that I'm bound tight in a straight jacket with a electro-shock collar tightly secured around my neck to "keep me in line" and to top it all off the shackles around my feet (that they say are just to keep the guards that deliver me my food and water safe).

I feel tears start to fall down my cheeks down to my cracked and drying lips. I just want to go home. I start to chuckle at the thought of home. Way to go Wanda. How stupid can you be? You have no home! Sokovia is gone, Pietro is dead, the Avengers are no more, AND to top it all off even IF I wasn't trapped here in The Raft I'm considered a terroristic weapon of mass distruction. Ironically enough though all of those things are my own fault. I mean if I never helped Ultron then both my country and brother would still exist. If I didn't join the Avengers they would still be together, and all of those innocent people in Lagos would still be alive. Maybe they are right. Maybe I am a weapon that just creates chaos wherever I go.

(A few days later)

BUAZZZZAAAAAZAPPPPPPPPPP

I can't breath nevermind focus enough to even register anything, but the pain coursing through my very being.

"We told you no sudden movement witch!"

While trying to catch my breath after the guard takes his hand off the remote's button I vaguely hear Clint, Sam, and Scott banging and yelling at the guards.

"Leave her alone! She's just a kid!"

"She didn't do anything wrong, just leave her alone!"

"Hey man there's no need to do that!"

After a few minutes, I finally catch my breath and have control to move (of what I can anyways) once more. I still don't know what I did to set the guard off this time. I know he was yelling about me moving or something, but I really don't recall doing so. Are they just taking pleasure in torturing me?

"Wanda, kid? Are you alright? I'm so sorry that I can't make them stop. Please tell me you're okay."

Oh Clint... "I'm okay now. I promise you guys. I just need to keep quiet and still is all. I won't give them anymore of a need to keep me in check."

Gosh I didn't realize how raspy and dry my voice had gotten over the past few day from lack of water. Hopefully I don't sound too bad. I don't want to worry them anymore than I already have.

"Come on Wanda just a little longer now okay? Cap will come for us. You just have to hold on."

Just a bit longer... Clint promised... Just a bit longer...
