Falling for a Maximoff

Chapter 32: Rescue Mission

Pov Wanda

My hands fiddle under the table as I listen to Tony talk. This is kind of a briefing for our next mission, we planned it together but need to talk about it more specific so everyone knows what to do.

I'm nervous for two reasons, first: this is my first mission since I got captured by the Avengers and am now kind of a part of them and second: this one is about to get Natasha and y/n back. They are both in the Red Room right now.

I didn't really know what it is but when they send the video of y/n tied to a chair, getting hit multiple times, I got an idea what kind of institution it is. Kind of like Hydra but different in some ways.

It was horrible to see her get hurt and thinking back, it still sends shivers down my back. Y/n looked like she was in a lot of pain and compared to her usual happy state, it was very different.
I am so scared for her and only want to have her back here and save. We grew kind of close over the time we spent together and I really like her. She makes me feel things, I never felt before and it's incredible. It feels like my magic is swirling around my stomach and it makes me smile.
She's always so kind and soft with me, something I haven't experienced in a long time.

Since Pietro died, she's the first person who makes me feel safe and who I want to be around. Something about her is special and every time our eyes meet, I get lost in hers, they have a mesmerizing effect on me that I can't deny. They are just so honest and carry so many emotions, I don't need to read her mind to know what she's feeling and it shows me that she trusts me.

It felt so great when I realized she did because all of the Avengers don't really but she never doubted me. And when we first kissed, there were so many happy emotions inside of me that it was hard to contain them and not blurt them all out. She's so gentle and still passionate with me and I adore that about her.

I know it's selfish but I want that back, I want her back, want to know she's safe.
It doesn't even matter if we're allowed to see each other or not, I just want her to be here and not in that torturing Red-Room-thing.
When I fall asleep, I see her pained expression and hear her voice when this guy ripped apart one of the post-its she apparently had with her. It's cute that she had it with her and it really seemed to have mentioned something to her and it hurt to see her reaction to it being torn apart.

Anger builds up in me when I think about this man hurting her and all I wanna do is make him feel worse than she did. She doesn't deserve to be treated like that, she did nothing wrong.
We hoped, Natasha had a plan on how to get her out but she didn't. She was even more worried and scared for y/n than I was, which is obvious since it's her daughter. The only thing she wanted was to make sure she could be with y/n, even if it meant she had to get captured by the same people.

We were able to track her location while they took her and listen to a few things they said before the battery ran out. But it was enough for us to know where we had to go. Tony did some research and stuff on that area and how we could get there.

He's currently talking about how we will rescue them. They are currently in a huge building and we have no exact clue where. There is a way through the firewall but once he got through, they might know we hacked them within a few hours and our time window would be over once they got the control back.

So, we have to do that when we're already close. Then we have to get through the barrier but that is possible since we have Thor, Steve and Bruce aka Hulk with us. Once we're in, we should prepare to fight because apparently the Red Room trains girls to be assassins. I honestly don't know if I could fight a girl or young women my age, they are not the enemy, they just have to be there.

We did also thought about rescuing everyone there but we don't have the capacity at the time and should focus on getting Natasha and y/n back.

Steve chips in, telling us he and Bruce worked on some kind of sleeping gas, that should put some of the "widows" to sleep so we won't have to fight them. I prefer this idea , it's not that brutal.
