After deciding to drop my Devil May Cry OC, I decided to bring back my Demi-Demon OC, but with the name of Drake Maverick and his brother will be Ryan Maverick. His profile is on my Author page for you to look at if you want to. I figured the first story to bring him back in is an Avengers story, and this takes place in an alternate version of the MCU. Basically, my version is a sort of crossover between the Avengers and the cinematic movies of X-Men, though there are comic elements featured in this story.
Wanda Maximoff's appearance is her MCU one and her brother, Quicksilver, is still alive. He was greatly wounded when saving Clint from Ultron during the Battle of Sokovia. Also, Wanda and Pietro aren't related to Magneto, this is their MCU origin, not their X-Men one. Alsoz Wanda will seem a bit hostile to Stark because I think her hatred of Stark was forgotten and rushed into forgiveness WAY to quickly when Age of Ultron ended.
And the pairing is strictly Shadow/Scarlet Witch.
Also, Wanda will be 23 years old and Drake will be 19 years old, I think it would be funny for Wanda to find out she's attracted to a boy who's still in his teens. Then again, he's part God, part Demon so I don't think it would be that much of an issue considering no part of him is human.
This film is also after Age of Ultron.
Now let's begin.
New York City, United States of America
Date: June 1st 2016 9:00 PM.
Walking down a street was a young, beautiful woman with shoulder blade length dark brown hair. She was 5'7 in height, was currently wearing a red long jacket with the sleeves rolled up to her elbows, black forearm warmers on each arm with what looked like a red bracelet on each wrist, a sort of black dress that stopped halfway down her thighs with a rather generous amount of cleavage revealed that, if one looked closely, were covered by a scarlet red bra. She wore black boots and her legs were covered stockings or high socks that ended at her knee.
This gorgeous young woman who was dressed in black and red clothes, and looked damn good while doing it, was Wanda Maximoff, also known as the Scarlet Witch of the superhero team known as the Avengers as of two months. She was also a former test subject of the group known as HYDRA. Wanda is an Eastern European native of Sokovia who grew up with her fraternal twin brother, Pietro. In an effort to help purge their country of strife, the twins joined HYDRA and agreed to undergo experiments with the Scepter under the supervision of Wolfgang von Strucker.
The two received superpowers as a result, with Wanda attaining various abilities including telekinesis, telepathy, which the lewder of the X-Men Charles Xavier said may end up surpassing his at some point if she continues training and growing stronger, and energy manipulation. Then again, her powers mostly came about after HYDRA experimented on Wanda using Loki Scepter which had an Infinity Stone, the Mind Stone Thor had revealed before he left for Asgard, so her Telekhine and telepathy possibly came from that and made her a force to be reckoned with, being that any of the six Infinity Stones were dangerous and had destructive capabilities, especially when all Six are used st the same time.
When HYDRA fell, the twins joined Ultron to get their revenge on Tony Stark over his weapons killing their family in a bombing, but eventually switched sides and joined the Avengers when they discovered Ultron's true intentions of Global human extinction, like the extinction of the dinosaurs but the entire human face.
The twins and the Avengers battled Ultron and his army in Sokovia, Pietro getting injured after saving Clint Barton AKA Hawkeye from Ultron using the Quinjet's weapons to kill him.
As for the reason why one of the most powerful beings on Earth was walking down a street in New York City instead of being at the new Avengers facility, it had been because Tony Stark had arrived at the facility this morning and acted like he hasn't done anything to her and Pietro. While her brother may not be the type to hold grudges, she didn't immediately forgive Stark for his weapons being the cause of her parents deaths.
Not even two minutes into a meeting called by Nick Fury that had Stark attend, Wanda got up and left to the surprise of everyone including her brother who tried to stop her but got a glare that would make the Hulk proud. Wanda stormed outside of the facility and saw Stark's black Lamborghini and a mischievous idea formed in her mind.
Let's just say she took the car for one helluva joy ride and it now sits crashed against a street lamp, dirt, dents, and scratches all over it. It helped Wanda's anger at Stark and now she was taking a walk in New York to cool off with peace and quiet... despite the fact New York wasn't the most quiet place, especially Hell's Kitchen.
That was two hours ago now and she was still walking about Manhattan. As she passed a who showing multiple TVs with a news broadcast on them, she saw they were news reports on the new vigilante known as The Shadow. He appeared six months ago, taking out one of New York's violent gangs known as the Brotherhood, who had committed murder, rape, child killing, they deserved to die end of story. They were found with gunshot wounds or sliced in half, it was clear he had been the culprit as he had a sword and two guns, plus witnesses did describe him to be wearing a crimson red trench coat, had a sword sheathed across his back, and wore a black protective suit underneath. Plus he had been seen wielding two guns.
Ever since he appeared, there have been those who have condemned his actions like the Daily Bugle, and some who think his methods are needed on such disgusting and dangerous criminals. Wanda was on the latter's side as she had seen a report of Shadow saving a child from terrorists and had also taken out a HYDRA cell that apparently were planning on making a weapon to bring a modern day 'Black Plague'.
Wanda came out of her thoughts when she heard three women screaming and heard multiple thoughts, three of terror and begging, and twelve more thoughts that descended into derk thoughts of rape. Wasting no time, Wanda went in the direction where the screams were coming from and walked down an alleyways where the supposedly Gang rape was about to take place.
Three ladies, who's clothing had been torn a bit to reveal their bras and underwear, the twelve men were armed with knives and handguns, however it didn't stop Wanda from gathering red psionic enegery in her hands as she walked towards the men, however what happened next stopped her.
A gunshot went off and one of the men fell to the ground, clutching his hand as he screamed in pain. It caused the other men to be startled and look around, taking their attention off the women who immediately gathered what was left of their clothing and run. Suddenly a figure jumped down between the women and the men and was immediately on the attack.
Wanda narrowed her eyes as she watched the blur fight the men, a kick sending one crashing hard into a wall and his head snapping on impact, killing him. The figure then was revealed to Wanda and she saw it was none other then The Shadow. Shadow unsheathed his sword and rested the blade on his shoulder.
"Shall we dance?" He asked theatrically, a voice modulator disguising his voice. He was then on the attack, using his sword to kill three more men then dropkicked another in the face, sending him crashing over a dumpster but he hit it neck first which killed him on impact. Shadow then sheathed his sword before ducking a right hook from another man and smashed his face into the walls causing blood to fall. One of the men leaped at him and stabbed a knife into his shoulder, but what shocked everyone watching was the fact Shadow didn't even look bothered by it!
He just grabbed the man's arm and twisted it, dislocating it before shoving the knife into his neck. Two more men ran at him with knives when red energy suddenly threw them into the wall, knocking them out but they won't be recovering anytime soon. Shadowmere and the remaining few men turned to see Wanda standing there, her eyes glaring at the attempted rapists. Wanda used her psionic power t send the remaining four thugs into the wall and knocking them out, and piled them on top of each other.
The Shadow turned to her and Wanda saw his mask was some sort of stitched together looking one, it just gave a blank gaze at her as Shadow adjusted part of his trench coat.
"Well, well, well, what is the infamous Scarlet Witch of the Avengers doing here?" Shadow asked, leaning against the wall with a hand placed against it.
"Taking a walk." Wanda said with her Sokovian accent.
Shadow hummed and nodded a little before their attention went to the sounds of a jet and Wanda turned to see the Quinjet arriving. Wanda frowned at it's sudden appearance before turning to say something to Shadow...only to see he was gone. Wanda sighed and turned to walk towards the Quinjet as it landed and the ramp descended, her brother and Steve Rogers AKA Captain America walking down them.
She knew she was going to get a lecture.
And that's it for the first chapter. I hope you enjoyed it and the brief interaction with Wanda and Shadow. The romance won't kick off immediately but there is attraction starting to form...on Shadow's side as he basically just saw a hot woman before him.
