Wanda was quiet as he spoke, listening intently. The cavalier touch almost came as a surprise, if only because Pietro was the only one who usually touched her like that. But the touch was less important than the words he was saying. That the powers had come from inside her.
Of course, that was contrary to everything she had been told so far. She had been exposed to the power of the scepter and she had manifested her own powers. Everything she had been told had led her to believe that something from the scepter had merely transferred to her and Pietro. But what if that wasn't the case? What if the scepter had only unlocked something that had already been inside of her? What if all those hundreds of people had died because something didn't already exist in them? Was this more her right than she had originally given herself credit for?
"You," Wanda slowed herself, made herself measure these words more carefully even though her thoughts were racing. She ended up switching back to Russian: "You were born with your powers?"
