Yay! I have updated quicker than usual! Hope you enjoy! And yes, review too. **************************************************************************** ****
Quicksilver was absolutely bored. Normally, he would be out running, but his arm was in a sling, which slowed him down. The speedster did not even have his last resort, talking to his teammates, to turn to, seeming as every was out for one reason or another. Pietro felt as though his life had stopped. His arm was fractured and he had nothing to do but sit and wait for the return of his murderous sister.
Or maybe, he did not have to do any waiting. The front door swung open and in stormed and all-to-familiar face.
"W-Wanda? Y-you're back!" Pietro stammered.
"Where is he?" she asked, looking straight at him.
"Where's who?" and although he really did not know, Pietro still put on his "sincere face", and managed a weak smile.
"You know who!" Wanda shouted, and flung him against the wall.
"P-please, I really don't know!" Pietro winced in pain as his already hurt arm hit the wood "If- if you're talking about Magneto, I don't know where he is! The last time I saw him-"
"You know *perfectly* well where he is! And if you don't take me to him..."
"But-" his body was pressed harder against the wall "Wanda please! I... I don't know, but..." Pietro was a fast thinker, but his thoughts needed to exceed the speed of light now. Wanda would not accept "I don't know" as an answer; that was for sure. He needed an excuse, but something that he could follow up, his sister did not like being lied to.
"I'll help you find him!" he announced. She dropped him. Fortunately, he did not land on his injured arm.
"Good" she said "Let's go." Wanda started to walk to the exist.
"Wait!" Pietro called "shouldn't I leave a note or something, ya know, just so that it's not a big mystery if I'm gone for a while-"
"Come on!" Wanda ordered and pulled him out using her powers. Pietro grimaced. Magneto would kill him when he found that he had betrayed him. Wanda would kill him if he did not. Either way, Pietro would end up dead.
Wanda walked away from the destroyed building almost casually. Her twin started at it, then at her, and then back. The building had been large, metal, and a place that no one ever went to. It was Pietro's best guess that Magneto was hiding there, but when he was not, Wanda got mad. At first he was worried that she would take it out on him, but apparently she still had some sense left. Instead, she had taken her anger out on the building.
"It's not that amazing!" Wanda called to him, and Pietro was by her side in a millisecond.

Overall, the move had been a wise decision. He was now in Bayville, close to the X-Men and the Brotherhood. They, if they had any idea where he had been before, thought that he was still in his castle. He could catch them quickly and by surprise, it would be easy. They had no idea that Magneto was right under their noses.

"It's to damn hot!" he had said "and I'm thirsty!"
"So buy a soda"
"I don't have any money"
"Too bad. I'm buying one"
"Really? Do you have any extra money?"
"How much?"
"Err, five bucks?"
"A soda's less than that!"
"Yeah, for a soda and maybe some chips or something. C'mon, for me!"
"Why should I do anything for you?"
"Pleeese! I'll pay you back as soon as we get home, I *promise*"
"Ugh! Okay, here, happy?"
That had been a week ago, and Lance still had not gotten his money back. He had tried hunting around Pietro's room for any cash, but he had not found anything. He would just have to bug him for it.
"Has anyone seen Pietro?"
"Nah. He was here when I left, must've gone out"
"Same here." Lance groaned.
"Why don't you ask Mystique?" Lance groaned again.
"I'll wait 'til he gets back"
"What is it you want to know?" Lance jumped, startled by the voice, which belonged to the blue shape-shifter standing behind him.
"Um, I just wanted to know if you've seen Pietro" he said in a respectful tone, hoping that she would not decide to kill him.
"No, I haven't. But he should be back soon, it's getting late."
"Or might be staying out late" Todd suggested and then added "with a bunch of girls" Lance and Fred laughed, and Mystique grinned a little.
"I'm not sure" she said "you can't make out with a broken arm"
"And how would you know?" Todd asked. She flung him across the room. **************************************************************************** **** nessie6- You're absolutely right. Wanda has lost all.
me- It's a lucky guess, and the best explanation for now (only I know the truth, which shall not be revealed for a while)
DemonRogue13- Thanks! (again)
Beaubier- S'okay, I'm in a rush a lot too :) And personally, I've enjoyed giving Pietro discomfort- that's why I write. To give characters discomfort.
