Wanda, touched beyond words at the reunion of father and son and
having taken a step back to review the Red Skull's life, feels the wrath that
was sustaining her flicker in hesitation.
Johann Schmidt is pathetic. Horrible but pathetic. And, as the pathos overtakes her, she feels the power of the wrath stone, which is keeping her alive, ebb.
Not wanting to die uselessly, she wills the wrath stone to take her to the source of this immediate misery--Thanos.
Him she will fight.

Thanos is far away at the moment. The wrath stone cannot take
her there – its power is over heat and energy and emotion, not space. But she
can shoot him with red zap energy from here.
It’s certainly tempting. But if she gives in to the fire, will
she ever be able to come back?
Storm, feeling she has given Wanda what help she can, kneels and
puts the purple stone on Star Lord's chest, where his hand is--so they are both
holding it.
"Can we use this to help you?" She tries to use the stone to heal him, if she understands how to do it...but she is putting it where he can touch it, in case he knows what to do.

“Hell … “ says Star-Lord, and swoons, almost fainting. Mar-Vell
squeezes his hand, forcing Star-Lord back into focus.
“… yeah,” Star-Lord finishes his sentence. His hand gropes for
the Heartstone, but Storm has to put it in his hand.
Then purple light illuminates his flesh from within, and he is
healed.
And handsome!
Wanda's rage subsides, no doubt leaving her a burnt skeleton, but that's the power of love, I suppose.
ReplyDelete"I vish . . . you vell," she says to Star-Lord (might look like them) as she in all probability does one of those Terminator collapses into a pile of ashes.
(Ah, well. There's always Black Widow.)
Still chuckling over the "Hell..." etc. "yeah!"
ReplyDeleteStorm gives him an approving nod. But she takes a bit of a step back. That kind of cocky handsomeness...and libel to go off half-cocked!
But she does feel a bit of a warm spot for the young scamp.
She gives the father and son a moment and steps back, looking for any approaching danger.
