Fandom: X-Men: Evolution
Prompt: 50-A/41. Race
Character/Pairing: Wanda Maximoff
Rating: G
Word Count: 200
Summary: She remembers a time when she was faster than Pietro.
Authors Notes/Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Wanda remembers, vaguely, the time when she was able to beat Pietro in a foot race. She remembers being happy, and the smell of fresh cut grass on a lawn that seemed to go on forever, and Pietro’s shouts about the race not being fair as he labored to keep up. She remembers the sun turning her skin pink and making it tender to the touch, and she remembers laughing.
It is one of the few precious memories that kept her from going truly mad. It reminded her that there was more to the world than four blank grey walls and the straightjacket.
It was her freedom, when the world around her was a cage.
