Chaos and Madness

Yes, yes I know I do not believe and like dreams, but sometimes, I do wish I was in one.

School sucked the next day. I wasn't feeling well, Dolores was still her same self, and I heard voices in my head. Worst of all, I was asked to stay after class by the Principal, Mrs. Coulson.

After everyone left, I walked my way to Principal Coulson's office to find Pietro there, and I knew it wasn't me in trouble.

"Pietro-"

Principal Coulson: Wanda, please sit down.

I looked beside Principal Coulson to see Mr Banner behind her. I sat down opposite Principal Coulson and beside Pietro, nervous.

    "Ok Principal, what did my brother do this time?"

    ᱬ

"What the actual HELL PIETRO?"

Pietro chased after me as I stormed out the Principal's office.

Pietro: Wanda, I can expla-

"You forged your student's report and changed the school's records? YOU KNOW HOW BIG OF A TROUBLE YOU'RE IN?"

Pietro: Okay point made, I'm sorry.

I rolled my eyes as Pietro made his way to his locker and threw the papers in it.

Pietro: Come on, you gotta be impressed though I did it.

"Did what? Piss of Mr Banner so much that Principal Coulson had to get involve?"

Pietro: ...Yeah?

I slammed Pietro's locker shut.

"Pietro, listen to me, you're gonna have to change this childish attitu-"

Pietro: Wanda, I AM A CHILD!

"Shut up Pietro, I'm talki-"

Pietro: DON'T TELL ME TO SHUT UP!

"JUST LISTEN TO ME FOR A SECOND PIETRO I-"

Pietro: OH MY GOD, WANDA, YOU'RE SUCH A MOM! STOP ACTING LIKE YOU'RE MY MOM!

"I KNOW I'M NOT YOUR MOTHER PIET-"

Pietro: THEN STOP PRETENDING TO BE! JUST CUZ SHE ISN'T HERE WITH US DOESN'T MEAN YOU NEED TO BE LIKE HER!

I stopped talking, and so did Pietro. I didn't know how to react. I felt hurt, betrayed. Betrayed that after years of looking after Pietro, this was what I got. After everything I had to go through, this was the best he could.

"You know, be glad she isn't here... because I don't know how she would feel if she saw you right now."

Pietro looked at me, he didn't seem to be shaken by it, but I could see in his eyes that it hurt him.

I opened my mouth to take it back but then, something red started glowing in Pietro's locker.

"Oh for heaven's sake, what did you put in-"

Suddenly, the locker door got blown off. Pietro and I looked at the locker as a shadow emerged from the crimson smoke. Eyes glowed red and claws came out of the locker. I didn't need to see the rest to grab Pietro by the hand and tell him what to do.

"RUN!"

Me and Pietro ran away. We ran and ran until I felt something wet wrap around my leg and I tripped. Pietro looked back to see the monster, a dark grey demonic goblin with its long tongue pulling my leg back.

Pietro: WANDA!

"GET OUT OF HERE!"

Pietro looked to his side and saw a fireman's axe in a glass case. Pietro picked up his backpack and used it to smash the glass. He grabbed the axe but the weight pulled him down.

Pietro: Oh this is heavy.

"Pietro... DON'T- DO- ANYTHING-"

Pietro ran to me, and raised the axe.

"This is not how I planned to go."

Pietro: HOLD STILL!

Pietro used the axe to slice the goblin's tongue. As the goblin screamed in pain, Pietro ran to me and picked me up.

Pietro: Come on, let's go.

Pietro and I ran to the main door, but it was locked.

Pietro: Damn it!

Suddenly, the gobin charged at Pietro and they both crashed out the door.

"PIETRO!"

Pietro slipped out the goblin's grasp and tumbled to the pavement, unconscious. The goblin started making its way for Pietro and me, thinking fast, got a plank of wood from the broken door, and slammed it on the goblin's head. The goblin however didn't seem to be affected by it. It looked at me angry... full of rage.

I was grabbed by the throat by the goblin and I could feel its sharp claws on my skin. The goblin lifted me, chocking me, and it put its hand on my forehead. Suddenly, I felt light.

I felt as though energy was being drained from me and my life force was weakening. I think I was losing my mind as suddenly, I heard voices, voices telling me to hold on and that help was coming my way. My vision started to turn red and my eyes were getting heavy I was about to close my eyes when... I heard a scream.

I blinked and I saw in my hand, a heart. I looked at the goblin, it had a hole on it. I looked back at the heart and it hit me, it was his heart.

I dropped the heart and started moving back. The goblin saw me and tried to charge at me, but then a purple barrier stopped him.

Purple-Witch: Oh no you don't.

Suddenly, witch in a purple suit came.

Purple-Witch: Young lady, stand back, and please keep quiet for a while.

I watched as suddenly, the witch conjured purple magic to her hands, and started muttering something in latin. The goblin then started screaming as though it was burning, because it was. Purple fire emerged from the ground and started burning it until it vanished.

I sat on the ground, shocked and confused.

"What... what was that?"

The witch walked to Pietro.

"How is he? Is he okay?"

Purple-Witch: Oh he's fine. Don't worry. Come on, let's get you fed up.

The witch helped me up.

Purple-Witch: What is your name dear?

"Wanda. Wanda Maximoff

Purple-Witch: Wanda, I'm Agatha Harkness. You mind telling me what the hell just happened?
