Re: Later that day...
Her words struck a powerful cord in him. The sound of her voice awoke an old feeling in his gut. He recalled his past under the AIM experimentation labs while at Juvie. Tests were conducted on mutant children in secret there. The hopelessness expressed by kids trapped there was the same hopelessness she was talking about. This wasn’t right at all. Her tone of voice hurt him even more; he didn’t want that for Wanda Maximoff. No, not at all. She was strong. She had to be.
“I don’t understand. What happened?” There was clear concern in his eyes now. He didn’t want her falling into this place she was in now.
