It was an unbelievable day. It started out normal enough. But then the session with Doc Samson, changed the whole outcome. Through out the rest of the day Jet remained spacey not telling anyone quite yet that her powers had come back. Somehow it was hard to understand the beginning and end of it all, but the gist was pretty easy to figure out. The blonde had read in an article that a meteor shower was going to happen that night. That had to be some sort of sign.

What was more majestic, and a beautiful then a meteor shower? Sharing it with the Scarlet Witch herself of course. Jet had set up everything outside. A blanket, because it was cold. Some snacks, in case they got hungry. A few beverages, a camera to take pictures of, and some other extra stuff. It was a nice set up perfect for the two. Maybe as they'd watch, the blonde could paint the rest of Wanda's nails. A different color for each nail, or French tips with colors. It was safe to say that she was excited. There was a new light in Jet's eyes. Brighter, and happier.

She had made her way up to the Maximoff workshop. She reached the door and gave a soft knock. Her hand turned the knob slowly she peeked in. The blonde tiptoed inward to reach Wanda. Not knowing if Pietro was asleep and not wanting to wake him. If he was even there. Jet saw Wanda and put her hand lightly on her shoulder. “Wanda?” She gave the gypsy a small rub on her shoulder, “Wake up sweetie.”

There was a lighter tone to her voice, quiet, and even a bit excited. Happy. “Come on, Wanda. There's a meteor shower. I want you to watch it with me. I got everythin set up outside.” Jet smiled widely and sweetly to the gypsy as she tried to wake her up from a sound slumber. Sleep could be regained, but a meteor shower didn't happen often. Hundreds of shooting stars. Sparkling, shining, crystallized hunks falling fast enough to be seen by the citizens of the planet.

Such a natural beautiful phenomenon had to be viewed.

Wanda
Reality Warping
“…whzzt,” Wanda mumbled sleepily. Cracking open one eye, it focused on something blurry and blonde. She rubbed the heel of her palm into her eyes to clear away the last of the sleep-fog. “Jet? A shower? Outside? Is it raining?” She sat up and looked at the, now in focus, blonde. There was something about Jet that surrounded Jet, a haze of joy and excitement; it was impossible to crush the joyful, bubbly spirit of Jet but for a very long time she’d been… dampened.

“Okay,” she nodded and clasped Jet’s hand with a girlish enthusiasm more common to someone half her age. They were not children but, along with Guido and especially Jonny, had a way of shaking off the burdens of responsibility and being ‘grown up,’ more than some of the others. “I dreamt I …,” her eyebrows furrowed for a moment then smoothed, “I do not remember, it must not be important.” Thoughts of white walls and silent rooms faded into nothing.

Not bothering to change out of her pajamas, Wanda padded at Jet’s side, the cool floor barely registering against her bare feet. She ran her hand through her tangle of curls. “You are so happy you are almost glowing, is it because of the show in the sky?” She asked excitedly as she followed Jet out to the patch of roof where a blanket had been spread out on the grass that Wanda grew up here, high above the congested city streets.

Wanda woke up, rubbing her eyes after she asked if it was raining Jet shook her head and chuckled. “Not that kind of shower, Hun.” The gypsy agreed and clasped onto her hand. She told her she had a dream about something but forgotten it. Leading the Scarlet Witch to the area the blonde had set up she told her, “I tell ya Wanda, some nights I'd wished for that.” It was a serious paused she took after talking. But it was only for a moment and it was continued on with such a hyperactive and bright mood, “But not anymore.”

They were near the blanket and when Wanda commented on how happy she looked. It made Jet smile so wide it would put the phrase 'beaming from ear to ear' to shame. They reached the blanket and the blonde plopped herself down bringing the gypsy down with her. With a sigh she spoke again, “This is a celebration Wanda... it's the meteor shower, and much more.” For a moment she leaned back to look up a the sky. Seeing some cloud off in the distance. Even if clouds did come, even if there was a storm, it wouldn't dampen the mood she was in.

Jet looked back down to Wanda and then held out her hand. Looking to her hand she concentrated. Remembering the flow, the feel, everything in her head from the therapy session. All of it. Just then, a small glow of her eyes and energy in her hands appeared. It had come faster then the last time, still a small amount of energy then what she was previously capable of, but it was progression. “So much more.” The blonde stated.

Jet wiggled her fingers, playing with the small energy ball in her hand for a moment before she let the silver light go out. As the energy went out, so did the glow in her eyes. She turned her gaze back to the Scarlet Witch for her reaction. In a calm but happy tone she spoke, “I've had a moment of clarity.”

JP BETWEEN WANDA AND JET



In the dark of the night, Jet’s silvery glow lit their faces from below. A slow smile of genuine happiness spread across Wanda’s face. It reminded the gypsy of fireflies and a warm autumn night, like the one around them.

“You are better, yes, Jet,” Wanda laughed and took Jet’s hands as the light faded away.

In a calm but happy tone [Jet] spoke, “I've had a moment of clarity.”

“Oh? And what could be as wondrous as being whole again?”

Jet gave an exhale, “Wanda I think tonight... I could actually sleep through the night. It'd be the first time in months. I met up with that Doc Samson earlier. He helped me realize...” The blonde paused for a moment before continuing. “Helped me realize some stuff about the Scrambler.” It had always been a sensitive subject among X-Factor. It took her till that night to really say his name. While she might not have still been able to fully talk about what had happened down in the basement, it was a step towards recovery to say his name out loud.

“Ah, that is good,” Wanda said and patted Jet’s hands. “That was a bad time. An understatement, I know; few things can top Death in spoiling a day.” It had been a troubling day; all the pain and blood, and in the end, death too had come for the bubbly blonde X-Factorite. “That doctor, Samson, he is good. He has kind eyes. What did his talking help you realize?”

Jet gripped back onto Wanda's hands as she patted them. She nodded in agreement to Wanda's statement about having dying ruining a day. The gypsy asked what the doctor helped her realize, “That nothing from that day, or Scrambler's situation that lead him to what he did, was my fault.” Scrunching the side of her lips for a moment she looked up to the sky, the meteors hadn't arrived quiet yet but at any moment they would fly across the sky. Looking back down to Wanda she awaited her reaction.

“No, dearest Jet, it was not.” Being a demonstrative person, not just with her brother but all of with everyone, Wanda waited for Jet’s gaze to return to her; she leaned forward and laid a warm kiss on Jet’s forehead. “It is good that you no longer carry another’s burden.”

Jet clutched onto Wanda for a hug and replied, “I couldn't agree with you more, Wanda.” Separating from her she continued, “It's been a major relief.” The blonde paused to reach for several different colored nail polishes, one nail was already painted. Shaking up the first bottle, a blue colored one, she was ready to finish the multi-colored nails that would be on the Scarlet Witches' nails. “I'm glad to hear you like Doc Samson.”

Wanda obediently gave Jet her hand. Pietro had always said she was a natural beauty and had no need of such artificial trickery, and their lives being just the two of them, such things didn’t matter. But after coming to New York and, regrettably, them growing apart, Wanda had ventured to try new things, nail polish being one of them. “Yes, he is nice. And very thoughtful. Though maybe he thinks a little too much. But,” she shrugged her shoulders, “that can not be helped.” She regarded the blue nail with a tilt of her head. “Blue is nice…like the sky at dusk.”

“What did you think of the doctor Samson?”

Jet gave a small chuckle and replied, “I think he's nice too. He's got a sense of humor about him. And you know our session it wasn't all about 'SHIELD this' or 'government that' it was nice not having to think about what the whole government sponsorship. Every time it's brought up everyone seems to just sort of tenses up about it.” After the session with Samson Jet was starting to think that it might not be too bad of an idea. Maybe. “He's got hair like Lorna. Is green gonna be the new thing for hair? Cause I don't think green would look good as my hair color.” She shook her head with her statement.

She gave the gypsy a small wink and a big smile. Finishing the blue on Wanda's nail she continued, “Blue is a good color. And speaking of green...” Jet reached for the dark green polish next and started on the next nail. “I should sneak in one of these nights and paint Jamie's nails pink.” The blonde chuckled at the thought.
