Janet was sitting behind her desk in full costume it had been 2 days since she got back from Australia and nothing had changed. Her face was wrapped in a cloth like the kind she used for her suit it was protecting the exposed skin the acid wore off. Her exposed arm and leg were both wrapped in the same cloth. She stroked Pete who was cooing in her lap as she gently petted him. Ever since that day her fight had been on the news across the world she was watching a news feed with her fight playing in the right corner.

The woman on the news had blond hair and was wearing one of Janet's companies shirts the name under her face was Dee Seabrooke, "I respect miss Van Dyne I mean she is a powerful woman and the stuff she puts out for fashion is incredible I still wear it and probably won't stop but what she did here disgusts me."

The camera zoomed out to reveal and African American male in a blue suit his name appearing under him as Tobin Dayo, "There is no doubt that she went overboard but if you take into account what happened before to cause this."

The camera went to a grey haired man in a grey suit his name Luther Warwick, "Yes but that does not give her the right to go off and fight in a country without giving any knowledge to them. This poor woman will probably not walk right again there is only so far you can when fighting a villain and Janet took it too far."

Tobin popped up cutting Luther off, "You are telling me if you found somebody who betrayed you crippled a good a friend…no wait how the Van Dyne Industries press release called it, the girl family. You're telling me if you had the chance to take revenge on a person who took away a family members life you would not do it."

Luther took a deep breath, "I am not sure if I would I have not been put in that position and god bless I never have to be. But Janet has powers she should be held accountable for what she did she should be better than us she should be a shining example like captain America."

"That is a laugh have you looked at his military record he has killed plenty and we don't always have the camera's on him so we don't see how far he goes in battles. What you are looking at right now in your narrow mind is this one instant not the hundreds of other times she didn't take it this far." Tobin was speaking louder defending Janet for her actions.

Janet chuckled a bit, "They have no clue what is really going on."

Dee spoke up in the middle, "I agree Tobin she has done amazing things in the past she even saved the earth a few times but I still can't justify her terrorizing the people on the beach."

Tobin shook his head, "I have grown up in New York my whole life I have seen this city attacked countless times and spent days as a child locked in shelter only to find myself homeless for a few months after a battle. Each time this happened Janet Van Dyne would go out of her way to pay for relief and helped countless people I know try and live a better life after they got hurt when some alien overlord or crazy villain tries to conquer us. She has done more for this city than any other hero out there."

"I will not dispute she saved the world but she needs to be held accountable for this." Luther had his hands balled in fists trying to keep composure, "These are people with abilities and weapons that could level us and here we are letting them act as if they were the worlds police."

"You are getting off topic this is not about the other Hero's this is about the wasp and her attack on a woman who deserved it." Tobin adjusted his suit a bit loosening his tie.

Dee coughed, "Well I can see both these people are very spirited on their sides so let's take a few minutes to replay the press releases by an Avenger's spoke person shield's director Maria Hill as well as a few opinions of people in the street."

Sam Wilson stood on a black stage the avengers logo behind him he was wearing his captain America outfit. The world wondered if he ever took it off after becoming the new captain America even his shield was with him. He coughed a bit, "Hello and welcome to Avenger's tower I am Sam Wilson otherwise known as Captain America or Falcon and I am here today to talk about the recent events of one of our founding members Janet Van Dyne also known as the wasp. I would like to say first that she has our support in this time of great stress and taking into account the activities that led up to this fight we have to say we fully support her decision to go after Mia or as she was known for a while as Sayuki. However the actions Janet took when she met up with Mia and the brutal nature of her tactics we do not approve. As an organization we believe all Nations borders and laws must be upheld however it has also come to our attention that the Australian government was told of Mia being within their borders and that she was wanted on crimes across the world. They still however did not allow us to enter and we respected that and continued to keep lines of communication open with them to allow us to enter. However Janet went on her own flying in on a commercial jet with her own funds making this a personal matter and not one that encompasses the Avengers. But as her friends we will stick by her and give her our support because we know how hard this life is." His wings appeared from behind his back, "That is all we have to state on the matter and ask that you respectfully end this conference." Sam took off into the air flying away from the gathering of reporters and cameras.

Janet shook her head laughing, "He really has followed Steve trying to please the entire world and make himself and those around him look clean. I should send him a text and tell him not to look so stiff and nervous. Now let's see what Maria says."

The screen flipped over to Maria Hill standing at ease in front of a shield logo, "I am Maria Hill Head of Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division otherwise known as Shield. I am releasing this video as our response to recent activities of an individual with which shield has had many dealings with. I am speaking of the video recently posted and reported on of Janet Van Dyne who goes by the alias of Wasp when fighting in such situations. She did use shield initially to help her make contact with the Australian government after both her and shield pooled resource to track down a wanted and dangerous fugitive. We had asked the government to allow us to enter their borders several times but were turned away each time do to previous engagements in and around their borders. It was at that point that we told Janet that she could not use our name or resources to pursue this matter further. We instructed her that we would continue to go through official channels and that she should not go on her own. Shield had nothing to do with these recent events but we do support the apprehension of a criminal wanted by us and many other organizations."

"Well she knows how to make sure shield comes off clean," Janet sighed, "I wonder what the world says."

The news flashed to a live feed on the streets of New York a young brown haired woman in another of Janet's outfits a light blue top and dark jean looking pants was standing in the street. Her name was Laura Pender, "I am here on the streets getting people's opinions on the recent events. I have a few people here first of is this young man what do you think of Janet's recent behavior?"

The young man was wearing a sports jersey, "I think what she did was amazing I mean look at how she fought even before the brutal beating. Her rant was epic I am glad she showed us a more human side."

Laura nodded, "And what do you have to say miss."

An older African American lady in a purple blouse smiled, "I am proud of how she fought she showed that women do more than hair pulling and stripping the other woman in a fight I think she should not be berated for what she did but held up as a sign of strength."

Laura smiled widely, "I agree, now what do you think?"

A middle age man in a green stepped up, "I think it was disgusting I mean fighting like that in front of people almost killing the girl then dragging people to watch. These people are strong and when they fight I get that it gets messy but she should have tried to take it out of sight if not for the sight but for safety."

Laura nodded, "Now what do you thi…"

A man in a black hoodie sunglasses and a grey beard ran up grabbing the microphone, "fu…" Then fell hard as a fist hit his face.

Laura stood there with a clenched fist, "I am sick of this!"

Dee was chuckling then became serious when she realized the camera was on her again, "Well that is one way to end that little joke. Now we have just been notified that Janet Van Dyne herself has released a press statement one that is official and not speculation on reports and releases from other entities."

Janet appeared on the screen still bleeding from her fight it seemed it was taken only hours after the fight her hands wrapped in bandages so was her face. She smiled a bit at a camera, "I am sorry for nothing and she deserved it."

The screen went back to Dee with an open mouth, "I guess that is what we have to go off any comments."

Tobin nodded, "you go Janet." He stood up and left acting as if he needed say no more.

Luther scoffed, "Please she should be sorry for this display of brutality her lack of decency and that smile shows she does not deserve to be where she is."

Dee smiled, "Well I guess it will be up to each person to decide what they believe….coming up next we have a lighter story about a dog a kitten two baby tigers and the female lion who is caring for all of them."

Janet swiped the screen to end the news cast she reached into a drawer of her desk and pulled out a bottle of pills she popped the top off and took a few pills from it. She chewed them before swallowing them and putting them away. "I guess the world still doesn't get it." She picked up Pete and set him on her desk.

Janet walked towards her balcony her reflection showed up in the glass and spoke, "You are losing it Janet."

"I am not losing anything."

"You are losing who you are becoming something you shouldn't."

"And how do you know what I should be?"

"Because I am you."

"No you are not!"

"Yes I am, I am the one you should still be."

"Like hell I want be like you flat dimensionless seeing only the best in the world no matter what."

"That is how you were."

"And look at would it did for me I lost all the people I loved. I got hurt countless times and still smiled only to be kicked again. I saw the good in a woman who had none she ended up hurting all of us and made it so one of us lives in constant pain."

"Yes but that Janet was happy she always saw the way the world should be and fought to make it that way."

"It will never happen people will just keep shitting on my life and telling me to go on. It happened hundreds of times and will happen hundreds more if I go back. This way nothing can hurt me."

"Except it is, It is killing you inside ripping you to shreds until it claws its way out and tears into the world. If you keep going down this path you won't recover."

"I don't want to become that again!"

"It is all you can be," The reflection changed her hair turning black and keeping itself short her costume changed again, "This is who you need to be." Her costume exploded off her body black leggings appeared under a golden short skirt held up by a black belt. Her top was golden and fit loosely around her neck and arms but was tight across her chest and stomach. The top of her hands were covered in a gold material while her palms of her hands stayed black. Her eyes had were covered by a golden visor on her feet were two gold colored knee high boots with black soles. "You are needed to show that no matter how bad things get you can still go on you can still be strong. You need to think more and not just act you only lose that way."

"I won the last fight!" Janet screamed at her reflection.

"By almost killing Mia, and before that you were taken out by such a small group of royals."

Janet turned away from the reflection, "I know I lost and I won't let it happen again!"

"You will! You will fly in thinking you have it all planned out but you only have a fraction of what you need and you will get beaten or worse you will be killed. Shield can't rescue every time."

"Shut up I don't want to hear it!" Janet covered her ears.

"You can't block me out like that Janet I am part of you," The reflections voice was pouring into her head no wait it wasn't pouring out it was piercing her mind from deep down.

"Please stop I can't take this." Janet was crying she ran over to her desk, "I don't want this anymore." She pulled the bottle of pills from her desk ripping off the top she began to take as many as she could. Swallowing as she cried swallowing as fast as she could until a moment later she fell over landing hard on the floor next to her desk.

Pete flew to her landing on her chest he pecked at her face as foam began to bubble out from her lips. Pete took to their making as much noise as he could knocking anything to the ground he could trying so hard to get the attention of anybody near the door he could not break through….
