Chapter 7: 6. Returning home
(First PoV)
(10 days later)
Finally!
I can now easily control the huge number of cockroaches!
Without killing them!
I put my finger close to one, and it didn't move even a little bit!
A portal opened behind me, and I jumped back in.
"Hey Wong! Can I learn the portal? It's very convenient and a safety measure."
Wong shook his head.
"We use dimensional energy of this world. But since Phoenix was able to pull you into the 5th dimension so easily, using another dimension's energy may offend it."
Well, that bird does seem that immature.
"I think I am ready to meet my family."
He showed me the gate.
...I get the feeling that he doesn't like me much.
"Alright. Meet you again, Wong. Send my regards to Dr Strange!"
As I opened the gate of Sanctum and stepped on the street, I was suddenly overwhelmed.
Too many voices... Too many thoughts...
Atleast I didn't understand cockroaches' language and it was just constant noise that I got numb of.
Well, Telepathy OFF.
I flipped the switch inside my mind, and instantly felt better.
Honestly, I need to train my telepathy better. I have the best radar, and no bad guy would ever be able to catch me off-guard if I get better at it.
But, first let's meet my family first.
Honestly, I am excited. And worried.
Is our house still ours? Or someone has taken it over during blip?
Well, I can 'convince' whoever who has taken over our house, if anyone has at all. Afterall, there were lots of empty houses even before half of population died.
As I got a taxi, ready for a 2 hr ride, I thought about just flying my way using telekinesis, but decided against it. I shouldn't reveal that I am a mutant so early on.
Money is not the issue with telepathy.
Well, not that I would steal using my powers.
I took out my phone and started scrolling through the news.
First, the Avengers who did not sign the Sokovia Accords, like Wanda, Falcon, Bucky, Hawkeye, and returned after the blip have been fully pardoned, like the rest that remained alive after the Snap.
And Wanda who went to Westview Town, have been trapped in a red magic haze alongside the entire town. No one knows what's happening inside.
Well...
That bitch has gotten crazy. No wonder she is a witch.
Falcon has returned Captain America's shield to the US government, and the military's best soldier, John Walker as the new Captain America, and he will be responsible for taking care of the terrorist group Flag-smashers with cooperation from almost every UN countries except Wakanda, China, Russia, India who are capable of killing terrorists and don't want US collecting intelligence on them, and a bunch dictatorships like North Korea that don't fear US.
Well... I haven't watched those long shows after shows that MCU was shoving down to its audience, but from what I know from the reviews, in classic Disney fashion, killing a super-soldier terrorist somehow makes him a villain.
Well, this terrorist group that wants to kill the half of the world that returned so that they can keep the stuff they got for free during the blip and don't want them to be returned to the original owners, is the major crisis world is going through.
They say that there are many mutants involved with the terrorists too.
As for other Avengers, Hulk has settled on an isolated island ever since Ross became the US President a year ago. Thankfully, since Hulk brought back half of the world, Ross can't do anything about him now.
Though the media doesn't seem to be giving him as much credit as Iron-Man.
Iron-Man is dead, but his companies are doing fine, even better than ever, and providing relief throughout the world.
Spider-Man surprisingly doesn't come to much news. I guess Iron-Man kept him low-key in media after Sokovia and when Peter refused to join Avengers in Homecoming.
Black Widow is dead. Vision is dead.
Hawkeye is retired.
Thor left with the Guardians of the Galaxy.
...I guess no one is left in Avengers huh. Aside from Falcon and Rhody, though they are just side characters.
Black Panther and Dr Strange never really joined Avengers.
...Well, the world is a mess right now. And with Roas as the US President, he will make things only worse.
Thankfully, there is an election next year.
And not so thankfully, the only other visible candidates are Binden from Ross's party and Doland.
Yeah. Things will only get worse.
After a long time, I finally arrived at my home.
It still looked the same as I remember now after my brainwashing was undone.
I smirked.
Though I am mentally a lot older, with being 22 in my previous life, I am still a 15 year old in body.
And Big Sis, who was 2 years older than me before The Snap, is now 3 years younger than me even physically.
I will have a lot of fun teasing her and overpowering her in our play WWE.
"I guess I am the big sis now huh?"
*BOOM!"
