HE DIDN'T KNOW how long he's been in the dark room. It could've been hours, maybe even days. He couldn't tell anymore after his tenure in Westview and how time went by.

During his time in the room, he recalled his time before coming to town. How his parents died, how his grandmother, Vivian, took care of him, and his early tenure with the Avengers.

Now that he was able to, he also thought of when he first met Wanda in Sokovia. It was almost a decade ago, but it felt so recent. He still had the same feeling of love towards her from then.

They grew as people, as Avengers, as a couple from then on. He recalls the civil war in Germany and how they ran away together with Steve, Sam, and Natasha. He remembered the battle against Thanos in Wakanda...and how he lost Wanda.

He felt a sting in his heart looking back on that. It was such a painful and sad time for him, especially those five years after.

He recollected the war against Thanos and his army. Once everybody was brought back, they all banded together and fought the Titan. He remembered reuniting with Wanda and how over the moons he was. She came back, and that was all he wanted.

Then...came the memory of taking on Thanos during the end of the battle. The determination he felt, the selflessness. The bright flash was the last thing he remembered of his life before Westview.

That was his past as Y/N.

As Specter.

But what transpired in Westview this last week wasn't going to be forgotten. He wasn't going to throw it all away and think of it as a fluke. Like Wanda said, the love he felt and gave...his family...all of it was real. It felt like home.

And he was going to protect them.

Y/N grunted as he clenched his fists and tried to break out of the roots. They were tough, but he kept trying. His eyes flickered a bright orange glow, and for a moment his strength regained. He ripped them apart, landing on the floor and staring at the door.

He charged and kicked it open, noticing that the lair was still empty. He had to go warn Wanda, and he hoped it wasn't too late.

He ran towards the corridor where he first entered. He got through a n e d e p j f r l n g h t e g v d p p

BACK IN THE HEX, Y/N ran up the basement steps and made it to Agatha's living room. He went to the window and ripped open the curtains, seeing a sight he never expected.

Agatha, in her dark-purple witch attire, floated in the air holding his three children by the neck with a tether. Wanda was on the street speaking to her while in a fighting stance.

Specter glared, and in an instant, transformed into his superhero form.

AGATHA HELD WANDA's children back. She knew what she was, what she can potentially be. It kind of scared her, but her mission was to take that power from her.
