Hello everyone! I hope things are going well for you all! As you can see I have a new one shot for you!

It's from before the AOU even started, when they were back in the Castle with Hydra. Nyah has had a rough time with her powers, but she's training and this is kind of the aftermath of it. Someone helps her realize that she is okay and everything will be okay.

Thanks to VanessaEmma for reviewing it! And thanks to everyone who's favorite-ing it or myself

Hope you enjoy it still! :D

Five piles of dust, lined up on five white pedestals, and by the look of it, you wouldn't have known that the dust was anything else but dust.

Nyah stepped away from the last object, that use to be what she would have guessed was some sort of alien gun, but was now just a pile of dust. A great sense of satisfaction and joy washed over her as she didn't turn any of the pedestals to dust, when her fingers graced the objects.

She glanced up at the high window above her, knowing full well someone was watching her, and she waited to find out what was next.

The sound of the speaker dinged on and congratulated Nyah on her job well done. Dr. List always sounded thrilled when she used her "enhancement" weather it was good or bad, even when her accident had happened with the guard he didn't seem to mind, was actually quite thrilled to find out that she had aged someone so quickly. She found that a little creepy, but other than that she didn't have any negative feelings towards him. Nyah grinned up at the window.

"Thank you." She called back.

"One last thing Nyah, before you go. Pietro could you please step into the room." Dr. List voice came over the loud speaker again.

The pleased look on Nyah face was washed off, as soon as she heard his name. It wasn't that she didn't want to see him.

She does.

It's all she's wanted to do, since joining this project, but she didn't know her fingers would be so deadly, and she was afraid that she'd hurt him, like she did the guard.

Her heart started to race, it felt like time stopped as he walked thru the door. He'd had his hair cut recently, and the blonde that showed up, is much easier to see now. After what seemed like an agonizingly long time, his blue eyes settled on her.

For the first time in what seemed like forever, and neither of them looked like they were about to look away. Pietro took the first step towards her, and Nyah was the first to look away, as she stumbled back, a stabbing pain hit her chest as she saw the quick look of pain cross his face, before he continued towards her, and then in a blink he was five feet away from her.

"Nyah." he spoke softly, taking a small step towards her, he was trying not to overwhelm her, with how much he was happy to see her.

"No! No! Don't touch me!" She screeched, shuffling quickly backwards, her hands subconsciously stretched out, until she realized, and bought them towards her, she wasn't sure if she could age someone without touching them, but she wasn't going to risk it with him, or she'd never forgive herself.

He paused, seeing the terrified look upon her face.

"Nyah, I promise you, nothing will happen, if you hold my hand." He said, his accent was always soothing to her.

"But you didn't see what happen Pietro." She replied, the actions starting to replay in her head.

"But look at you now." He told her, glancing at the pedestals. "You controlled it. Everything that is supposed to be standing, still is." Nyah's eyes wondered over to the five piles of dust in front of her. He was right, and she remembered how she felt when the pillar was still standing, but what if it happens again? She glanced back at him. She didn't want to lose him, she's in this mess because of him.

"Pietro I can't." She expressed, the tone in her voice a little shaky backing away from him while she shook her head, her brown curls swaying in the movement.

"Nyah, you can. Just take my hand. And I promise you'll see for yourself." He stated, his blue eyes never wavering from her.

Nyah could hear her heart pounding in her chest, and swore it had gotten loud since he first walked in. She's amazed hydra had kept her around, as she feared they would have gotten rid of her because she wasn't play with the others, or because of her acting out, or some other crazy reason she couldn't think of, but they didn't. Dr. List hasn't given any reason he was going to, in fact he's the one that told Pietro to come see her.

It was so easy to just take his hand, she just needed to reach out. A leap of faith as they call it. She glanced up at the window once more before back at the young man, she's not only came to know, but love, though neither of them had said those words, but look at him, he fully trusts her with his life. It's sweet, and also terrifying.

Just a leap of faith.

She reached out, and slowly she place her hand in his. It was warm, and that was it. She didn't see any progression of aging, no wrinkles suddenly showing. All she felt was the pull of him, pulling her closer. Into his body, and she slowly but surely accepted.

Pietro wrapped his arms around her whole body, and Nyah relaxed into it. She stayed like that taking a few moments to enjoy the warms of him against her. Her hands gripping his clothing.

She had a new game plan now, she needed to keep her new found powers in check because she wasn't going to hurt anyone she cared about.

Pulling back she looked up at him, giving him a sweet smile, she reached up to touch his new found blonde hair.

"I like this new blonde hair of yours."

He gave her a slight smirks. "Well your new curls are doing wonders for you too."

Nyah gave a light laugh, feeling things are going back to normal, or as normal as they will become with where they are, and with that Pietro stole a quick kiss from her, not caring about whoever was watching.
