Creature. That was certainly an interesting word to use to describe her. Though, Wanda didn't look at all perturbed about it - at least not outwardly. Inside, it would be anyone's guess on how she truly felt about it; but, either way, she'd be damned if she'd give him the satisfaction.
However, when Pietro had come to stand his ground in front of her, Wanda's stomach tightened. A mingle of delight and dread filled her as she heard him speak to the man with such venom. Wanda knew this was probably most unwise of her brother to do, seeing as how Magneto had been treating his followers as of late.
And being that they were his children, who knew what the man would do to them? Wanda wasn't concerned for her safety at the moment, but she was about Pietro's. If Magneto laid so much as a finger on him... Well, she'd make life for the Master of Magnetism extremely unpleasant. She'd make him suffer.
But, that was neither here nor there. For the moment, Wanda took a tentative step forward and placed a hand upon her brother's shoulder; a silent plea to make him back down. Though, she had to admit the alliance thing was a bit amusing.
While she was loyal to the Brotherhood, her true allegiance would always and forever would be with Pietro. Whoever thought otherwise was either naive or a complete idiot.
