Wanda listened as the girl explained that she’d been standing in her bedroom at the boarding school and now she was here. The moments went by and the explanation became more obvious, that they had a multiverse breach. It took the girl explaining that she’d come out of the basement to confirm as much.
She turned back to the girl when she suddenly asked whether Wanda had any idea who she was and whether she could call her father. “There isn’t a phone on Earth that’ll get signal for where your father is.” She told her with a hint of dark humour. If this girl was claiming to be Pietro’s daughter in another dimension, she was about to learn two horrifying truths: she was in the wrong universe and in this one, her father was dead.
“Wanda, why are you shouting?” Strange asked as he emerged from one of the hallways. His eyes zigzagged between the two women. “Who’s this?”
“This is….” Wanda gestured to the girl to fill in her name. “She claims that she just arrived in the basement from her school in London. She also claims to be my niece.” She explained as the sorcerer walked to the top of the staircase.
“Your niece? But Wanda, you don’t have a- oh.” Strange stopped mid sentence looking back over at the girl and beginning down the stairs to look at the girl more closely. “Were you doing any sort of magic or incantations when you travelled here? Did you hear or see anything odd in the moments before? I need to know if you were summoned or you travelled by yourself.” He asked with concerned but piercing eyes.
“Oh…” Luna frowns in disappointment as Wanda tells her that she wouldn’t be able to phone her father or by the sounds of things won’t be able to reach him at all. “Well then can I-” She’s cut off as Dr Strange enters the room and decides to stay quiet for a few seconds to hear what he has to say.
“My name is Luna, Luna Maximoff.” She introduces herself to him and then proceeds shakes her head at his question, for she had no powers to be able to do the things he is asking.
“No. I’m not a witch, I’m just an empath whose powers also consist of telepathy and telekinesis. So like I said before, one moment I was in my dorm room and then next I’m here.” The young hybrid answers, hoping that he would be able to make sense of what was going on.
Luna’s attention then terms back towards Wanda once more. “If I cannot call my father, then can I please borrow your phone to call grandpa or auntie Lorna instead?” She query’s in hopes that Wanda will agree to this instead.
Wanda blinked when the girl explained that her school was in London. “And you’re here for the holidays with your parents? Or here on a school trip? You can’t really just walk in here without knocking.” She tried to guess. Maybe the girl was on a field trip and had got separated from her class. She didn’t have an English accent which was curious but her All-American Android husband had had a british accent so she had seen weirder things. “No, I don’t know.”
There she was, with the Auntie Wanda. The redhead was about to ask the girl to leave when she mentioned Tommy and Billy. She stopped dead, staring at the girl in shock. Nobody knew about Tommy and Billy. Certainly not a teenager from a school in London.
Wanda looked at the door to the Crypt, which was open. It was then that she noticed the fizzling of residual magic. “Did you come through there?” She asked, pointing at the door before walking over to it and looking down to check there was nothing else there. The girl claimed to be her niece, and she’d travelled here from a school in London. And she knew about the twins. “Strange! You need to get down here! We have a visitor. ” Wanda shouted up the stairs. And potentially a problem, she thought to herself.
“No… That’s not, no, none of that is correct.” Luna informs Wanda as she shakes her head. “One minute is was in my room back in the boarding school and then I felt something literally pull me into that creepy basement.” She tells her, hoping that the older brunette will believe that she is telling the truth.
As Wanda points to the door she came out from and calls for Dr Strange she cannot help but flinch slightly, as she was not expecting her to call out for him. Luna’s decide’s to use this opportunity to read Wanda’s aura, her eyes then flash yellow for a few seconds as she reads her aura and realises that she is telling the truth. “You truly don’t know who I am, do you?” Luna asks her, even though she knows the answer.
“And If that door leads back to that basement, then yes.” She finally answers and finds herself crossing her arms. Because this was now turning into some horrible nightmare and she now wishes none of this was happening and that she was back at her dorm room. “Umm, can I borrow your phone? I want to call dad and tell him what’s happening and to come and get me.”
The girl was wearing a school uniform and holding a backpack, maybe she wandered in from the local high school. “It is 10am in the morning.” She agreed when the girl commented that she was meant to be in school. The girl seemed soothed by her presence, grinning like she knew her. Maybe she knew Wanda from the news and was here sightseeing. It happened occasionally.
“How did you get-?” Wanda stopped in her step when she called her her aunt, blinking in confusion.
What in the world. Was this some sort of joke? Everyone knew that her brother was dead. Teenagers could be so cruel. “I…think you have me confused with someone else, I don’t have a niece.” She explained kindly as she continued down the steps to meet the girl. “I think perhaps it’s best you get going to school.”
Luna cannot help but blink at the older brunette with confusion, as it was not the response she was at all expecting, for she had hoped to at least get a hug from her aunt first before asking questions. But no it’s the opposite, Wanda is acting like she has never seen her before, which Luna found to be very strange and did not like it at all.
“Umm one small problem with going back to school, it’s in London, as you well know.” Luna reminds her aunt, because they also both knew, they where not indeed in the UK, in fact she didn’t even know which country she was currently in, but that was not her biggest concern right now.
“Also why are you acting so weird aunty Wanda?” She questions, crossing her arms in a displeased manor. “Did Tommy and Billy bribe into acting like this and putting me in this place? Because if so, you’ve got to tell them to drop the blueberry incident, it’s been months now!”
Wanda had been living at the Sanctum for some time now with Strange. The pair had been trying to get to the bottom of this chaos magic and prophecy that Agatha had told her about as well as investigate what seemed to be happening in the multiverse. It was on one such morning that she was in the library when she heard someone shouting, sounding rather distressed.
She left the books she’d been reading and walked out to the balcony that overlooked the entrance hall. There was a young woman looking around rather frantically. “Can I help you?” She asked as she began towards the staircase. Wanda was wearing causal clothes, just an old t-shirt and some jeans. “Are you lost?” She asked, wondering if the teenager had come off the street or through one of the doorways by accident.
Luna looked around the entrance way, trying to see if she could spot anything familiar to her, hoping that this was some sick joke that the school mates she’s never gotten along with, played on her. But the more she looked, the more it didn’t seem to look that case, which made her slightly panic even more. When. suddenly she hears a familiar voice and spins around to see her aunt at the top of the staircase.
“Technically yes I am lost, because I’m meant to be in class right now.” Luna answers Wanda, indicating to her school uniform and backpack. Before grinning brightly up at her aunt, for any fears or concerns she may have had about this place has left her. “However I am no longer worried because you are here auntie Wanda… So what is this place exactly?”
@ofcrimsonenchantresses plotted starter
Luna’s morning has been a pretty average one so far, and was getting ready for her final classes before the easter holiday, which she was looking forward too, as the young hybrid will be staying with her father, and that also meant she will be seeing more of her aunts and cousins. Shoving her last of her books into her bag before throwing it over her shoulder, Luna starts making her way towards her bedroom door, when suddenly it feels like she is being pulled.
The next thing she knows, Luna’s in a completely different room, blue eyes scan the room with confusion, for it appears that she is in, some sort of basement and is not sure how she has suddenly ended up here. Carefully and quietly she starts to look for a way out and finds a door, going through the door, it leads to what the teenager can only assume is an entrance way. “Hello!” Luna calls out, looking around the room, deciding to break her silence, in hope of getting answers. “Is anyone here?!”
Birthday Shenanigans
ofcrimsonenchantresses asked: “Happy birthday, Luna-Lu!” Wanda smiled as she wrapped her arms around her niece tightly. It felt like just yesterday her niece was a baby in her arms. Pressing a kiss to her niece’s forehead, she squeezed her once more and then pulled away. “Here you go.” She told her, handing her her present, perfectly wrapped.
Luna grins brightly and automatically wraps her arms around her aunt, resting her head on Wanda’s shoulder for a few seconds, enjoying the feeling of being embraced and the kiss on her forehead. She was also relieved that at least one of her family members remembered that it is her birthday today. Luna then happily accepts her present. “Thank you so much. You are the best auntie ever. I love you.”
