Rory was in the woods she had a lighter in hand and was making a small fire she was going to use to heal her ribs and her other injuries

Rory wasn't surprised when Wanda appears

are you okay I felt your pain well I feel it -Wanda asks crouching down so their eyes meet

I... I went head to head with the Hulk solo after you unleashed him -Rory says not meeting her eyes

what... you got hurt -Wanda whispers softly

he threw me at a wall... my ribs are fucked up from it. Threw me around. bounced me off the floor repeatedly and well the list goes on -Rory says as she still struggles with the lighter

am so sorry I had no idea that you would get hurt -Wanda says filled with Guilt

I know. I don't hate you or anything -Rory

why won't you look at me then -Wanda

am in pain. my ribs are fucking hurting like a bitch as well as my other injuries. It... It hurts to look up and Move really. I need fire to mend them once that's done I'll be fighting ready and such... It just hurts to look up but yeah am also more than a little hurt here Wands -Rory

am sorry -Wanda

me to. but you didn't hurt Nat like you did the others -Rory

I just knocked her out. I didn't hurt her. I know she's your sister -Wanda

I... Thank You -Rory says as she finally gets the lighter to work and she nearly bursts into tears as it does and she uses it to start the fire

Rory uses the lighter to light up the fire once it's all light up Rory closes the lid to the lighter and puts it down and then she begins to take off her jacket but whimpers and such leave her mouth as she does that only get louder when she takes her shirt off revealing the large bruises and small cuts on her body

I did this -Wanda whispers

it's not your fault. you may have started it but -Rory

no buts. I did this and I'll make up for it later at some point -Wanda

Rory nods before she reaches her hand out to the flames

The fire then spreads along her arm and wraps around her body but it targets her injuries causing a gasp of relief and pain to escape Rory's lips

Wanda watches in awe and guilt as Rory's wounds begin to heal before her eyes

once it's done the flames die out and Rory falls on her back her breathing a little labored

Wanda rushes to her side

Are you okay -Wanda panic's

yeah just... how my healing works is that the fire burns my wounds. mends broken bones and well... it hurts like a fucking bitch but it's better the injuries -Rory

Wanda has tears in her eyes

am so so sorry -Wanda

I know. am not angry Wands am just really hurt well less hurt now but I can work threw that -Rory

Wanda nods

why did you take off your jacket and shirt while you did that -Wanda

am fireproof. my clothes are not. I don't have spare clothes right now only the one's on my back as it's not safe at the tower right now -Rory

where are you -Wanda

a safe house until we get another lead on Ultron... you're still with him aren't you -Rory
