Sorta Peter's pov.
Feeling happy yet tired from his sparring with Deadpool, Peter enters his room only for his good mood to evaporate as he sees the file on the table. Frowning he goes over to it and picks it up, surprised at how heavy it is.
Lips pressed together into a thin line he looks away, hesitating. He doesn't want to betray Deadpool's trust, if there is any, but master Coulson is right, the other is a Sith.
Looking back down at the file Peter makes up his mind. He's just going to quickly skim the file. A quick peek won't hurt. Right? Taking a deep breath he steels himself for what he's about to do and see.
Opening the file his eyes focus on the top of the page and Peter can't help but to smile. Chuckling at the inaccurate name of Darth Pool at the top he lets his eyes wander down the page. Skimming the text his eyes widen in disbelief at what he reads. Deadpool was a Jedi in training?!
Quickly flipping through the papers Peter's eyes catch on a word. "Compromised?"
..-..-..-..-..-..-..-..-..-..
Angry beyond belief Peter storms off from his room to find the one that is the most likely reason for the files existence.
Not bothering to knock Peter enters master Fury's quarters, throwing the file down on the man's desk. "What is this?"
Raising an unimpressed eyebrow at the apprentice, Fury reaches out, turning the file around he briefly glances down at it before looking back up at Peter. "The supposedly classified file of the Sith Darth Pool."
Before Fury has finished answering Peter is already gesturing angrily at the file and ask, "Collateral damage?"
Leaning forward Fury clasps his hands in front of himself on the desk. "He was captured and unfortunately became emotionally compromise-"
"He was tortured!"
"The circumstances do not matter."
Stunned Peter looks down at the file. He can't believe that everything in it actually seems to be true.
"What Darth Poo-"
Tearing his eyes away from the file Peter almost shouts. "It's Deadpool! Get his name right." Grimacing Peter looks down and somehow managers to look angry, sad and disappointed all at the same time as he shakes his head. "No, actually it's Wade." Looking back up Peter locks eyes with master Fury. "Deadpool is what you let him get turned into."
Eye narrowing Fury meets the upset apprentice stare without hesitation. "You better remember your place, apprentice."
Holding Peter's gaze Fury leans back in his chair. "What he chooses to be called does not matter. What matters is that he choose to turn to the dark side."
Staring in disbelief Peter feels anger start to boil up inside. "You abandoned him. He didn't choose that."
Without hesitation Fury answers as if it's perfectly obvious. "Everything is a choice. You do not simply become something because of circumstances, you choose to become it. Now leave."
Taken aback by the master's blunt declaration, Peter tries to take a calming breath. "But th-"
"You are dismissed, apprentice Parker." Turning his chair away Fury pays no more mind towards the agitated apprentice.
Jaw clenched Peter bites back his words, forcing himself to give a short bow and leave.
Hurrying away from the masters quarters, Peter ducks into a secluded area. Feeling his teeth grind together he tries to force himself to calm down. Taking deep breaths.
But he's feeling angrier than he's ever felt before, not only at the masters but at himself too.
Leaning against the wall he thumps his head against the hard stone. He should have asked. The first time Peter said the other's name wrong and he had been corrected, he said that his name was Wade. What kind of Sith keeps their birth name? Or giggles at his lightsabers changing sound? Or most importantly, lets a Jedi apprentice go without a scratch multiple times.
Clenching his hands tightly he feels his nails dig into his skin as he recalls what the file had said.
"Subject deemed emotionally compromised and a liability after extensive confinement and interrogation at enemy hands. See additional notes for details."
Details? There had been pages filed to the brim with nothing but descriptions of disgusting inhuman treatment and horrific experiments.
That's what they had dared to call confinement. Wade had been captured and experimented on. Tortured. And the Jedi did noting. Deeming him emotionally compromised and abandoning him. Collateral...
Feeling drained Peter leans heavily against the wall. "Compromised." Saying the word out loud it sounds like the death sentence that he now knows it to be.
Eyes aching Peter closes them as he lets himself slide down the wall. Breath hitching as everything comes over him at once, Peter presses his hands against his eyes trying to calm down, but the guilt and weight of everything makes it hard to breath.
Well, so that happened...
