Chapter 3: Guns
Tony tells the kids that it's okay and the bomb won't go off but that they should get out of the rubble. Pietro helps Wanda up while Tony looks to check the others were okay. Olek Maximoff and his wife were dead, their bodies underneath a mountain of rubble but the avengers were mostly fine despite Steve and Thor having some minor injuries from falling rubble and Bruce looking dangerously green. Wanda looked up at Tony, "They're dead aren't they, Mama and Papa." He nodded weakly as the twins blinked back tears, Pietro was still holding Wanda. Steve offered to piggyback Pietro for a while as Nat carried Wanda. I wasn't safe as more bombs could come, and the kids would slow them down.
Nat found Wanda way too light in her arms, sure the girl was ten and growing up in a war, but she still felt wrong, she didn't know if Steve was experiencing the same thing with Pietro on his back. As they ran the team suited up, well the best they could, Clint produced a compact bow and five arrows from his black outfit, Tony put his Iron Man helmet on, and Bruce seemed to be fighting to turn into the Hulk who was still being stubborn. Steve was without his shield and she only had the hidden gun in her jacket but Thor somehow managed to hide Storm Breaker under his cape. Steve would suffer the most from being back in time, Natasha decided, Thor had his ideal weapon, She and Clint could arm fairly easily, Bruce didn't need a suit and with enough time and money Tony could build another suit, but Cap couldn't get another vibranium shield, not unless they went digging in ice or stole from Wakanda. Neither options were viable at this time.
Clint stopped them about four blocks away in a dark alley. Nat and Steve let the twins down and Tony had to bat off questions about his helmet. Wanda looks up at Steve and says with red eyes, "You been both forward in time and back, your time travellers aren't you, there was an episode about time travel." She turned to Tony and asked, "you're really Tony Stark from TV, aren't you? You made the bomb." He nodded regretfully and the team realized they had to explain and work out how Wanda apparently already had telepathic and weird energy powers before she was exposed to unknown experiments with the mind stone. They told the twins about their past (or future, time travel was weird), well a version of it anyway, shortened for time, excluding the twin's involvement (the team all silently agreed to leave this due to Pietro's death and Lagos), and very watered down to make it almost appropriate for children.
Authors note- Okay so I didn't post over the weekend but I hope this chapter makes up for it by being (slightly) Stronger. Please leave a review if you want me to do anything in later chapters or change anything, (facts, names or really anything) if it's wrong. Thank you for reading.
Bruce was probably the most sensible avenger when he wasn't big and green, maybe under Nat but above the others. He was the one who mentioned they needed somewhere to go and asked Clint and Nat if they had any safe houses at this time. That was when Nat said what the others could have worked out but didn't think off. "Clint might be working for SHIELD, but I'd still be in the red room," The twins looked up as Nat didn't explain anything from her past before she joined the Avengers, "It's 1999 so I'd only be 15 or 16, Tony tell me the exact date later." Clint came in then and mentioned he once hid out in an abandoned Sokovian cabin in the mountains and they headed out of the city quickly, they might make it within 24 hours. Then the Soldiers arrived.
The soldiers looked at them for a second before eyeing Thor's axe and starting to shoot at them. None of the bullets hit as Clint shot five of the shooters and Natasha three while Steve shielded Pietro and Tony stood in front of her. The bullets missed because Wanda wanted them to. Then one by one every gun, including Nat's, jammed as a crown of red energy appeared on Wanda's head. The energy then appeared around the guns, not Nat's, and turned them into… "Banana's," Steve said in disbelief. It was the first thing Wanda had thought when her energy grabbed hold of the guns.
