This is a wasteland.
Characters: Wanda and Pietro
Setting: The Horizon
Content: Violence
Summary: The twins go off to do something heroic, and dangerous.
Wanda was being a good girl, following orders, staying put. And it was boring. There was only so much "guard" duty one could handle and aside from the fight the night before, Wanda hadn't seen much battle or done anything particularly useful. She decided it was time for that to change. Lounging in a chair in the operations center, she overheard a conversation between Fury and one of the SHIELD tech experts trying to power up the Horizon's weapons systems.
"-They've still got control of the defensive sail towers and they've used the manual overrides in the towers themselves to stop us from utilizing them," the tech explained and Fury sighed with a harrowed expression on his face. "Recon says defenses are insane, they've pulled these weapons bots from their ship or something."
"Of course, the fuckers don't want us taking out their means of escape," Nick muttered and stared at a readout on a screen. He sighed again and shrugged, "Well, see what you can do, and I'll try to get another team together to strike. It might have to wait though, we've got to rebuild what they destroyed last night and everyone needs a little rest."
Wanda eavesdropped, her interest piqued, and when the conversation was over she heaved herself from her chair and went in search of Pietro. No one else was following orders, really why should she keep trying. Anyway, it sounded like taking the defense towers would be a huge victory. Wanda could use that right about now.
