[quote=@Gowi]“Calm Thor down” in this particular occasion roughly translated to ‘indirectly or directly stop Thor from killing a prominent Brotherhood member because he has a god complex’.

Carol thought about the options— fight somebody who could take her energy pulses and strength on equal footing… or try to defuse a god’s wrath. This hadn’t been the first time she and Flash had to think about how to proceed with the situation given Thor’s overzealous nature that really… couldn’t be tempered. The superheroine knew she didn’t really have to time to be choosy as either option was a headache by a different name. To calm Thor down would be the opposite of fun, but Carol felt like she was the better fit and she knew Flash was waiting for her to bring out her fist for a good old game of rock, paper, scissors to decide. But she’d never make the mistake of playing a game based on timing and chance against the Scarlet Speedster again. 

[b]“[color=gold]Can you handle Scarlet Witch?[/color]”[/b] She asked the speedy superhero, matter-of-factly. [b]“[color=gold]Because I know I can take whatever Thor dishes out.[/color]”[/b]

[b]“[color=gold]Unless you want me to go after Scarlet Witch instead?[/color]”[/b][/quote]
[color=ff2400][b]"I think you better handle Goldilocks,"[/b][/color] I answer, glancing at the fuming Thunderer with a frown. [color=ff2400][b]"Between the two of us, it seems less likely that he'll try to put a hammer through [i]your[/i] teeth."[/b][/color] Turning back to Carol, I give a little smile. [color=ff2400][b]"Besides, I might as well complete the Maximoff set while I'm at it."[/b][/color]

As if on cue, Scarlet Witch looses a bolt of crackling pink energy at Captain Marvel's blindside. Acting reflexively, I grab Carol by the waist and spin her out of the shot's path. Giving a satisfied grin only [i]slightly[/i] marred by nervousness, I say, [color=ff2400][b]"Looks like my dance partner's calling me out. Gotta run."[/b][/color] And before Carol can argue about our respective assignments, I take off to meet the other Maximoff twin in battle. Unlike with Pietro, I can actually play my usual game against the Witch. In fact, my fight with Quicksilver gives me an idea for an opening move.

I start racing in circles around Wanda, picking up the speed with each pass. A vortex begins to form, funneling all the air inside the circle upwards. With just a few more moments, I could deprive Scarlet Witch of oxygen and bring the fight to a peaceful, harmless, and [i]quick[/i] resolution. Unfortunately, Wanda doesn't go for that idea. With a terrible cry, she throws out her arms and unleashes a wave of energy. I'm caught up in it and thrown off my feet. My momentum is turned against me as I roll for a few moments before coming to a stop. Right, she's got area effects, so that tactic's a no-go. Back to basics, then.

I make a rush at Scarlet Witch, zigzagging between bolts of energy thrown my way. Just when I think I'm going to get close enough to land a punch, the Witch throws up a protective shield. The pink force field catches my fist, shuddering for a moment, before redirecting all of that energy back at me. I'm launched backwards and sail through the air until a friendly windshield breaks my fall. Scarlet Witch doesn't relent. Throwing up her hands, she starts to fold the car in half around me. I close my eyes and vibrate my molecules, passing through the car harmlessly before the two halves slam shut above me. Wanda drops the folded hunk of metal on the spot where I once lay, but I've already moved clear of the wreck.

[color=ff2400][b]"Alright, you wanna play rough? Let's play rough."[/b][/color]

I decide to attempt something a little drastic. It's a new technique that I've been developing in conjunction with Harrison Wells, the STAR Lab scientist who is helping me harness my power. I zip around to various spots surrounding Wanda, pausing for only the briefest moment at each one. Once I've gotten up to speed, it begins to create a speed mirage, an illusion whereby I can create multiple afterimages of myself. I can see the confusion in Scarlet Witch's eyes as she finds herself looking at essentially a dozen blurry images of me. Unsure where I'm standing at any given time, she begins to fire energy bolts frantically. They pass through my afterimages harmlessly, like throwing rocks at a hologram. Meanwhile, I wait for the precise moment to strike...

[i]Now![/i]

Abandoning the speed mirage, I charge Scarlet Witch from behind. She never sees me coming as I drive a shoulder into her back, dropping her to the pavement. The impact dazes her, and the pinkish haze around her hands and body dissipates. I pick her up and carry her to the spot where I left her brother. He's still woozy from the fight, too, so it's no problem to quickly untie his hands and bind them to his sister's. [color=ff2400][b]"Guess what they say about twins is true, huh? You [i]do[/i] do everything together."[/b][/color]
