"What happened to her?" Nat was shocked, she never saw Y/N unconscious after healing someone.

"She just passed out. Can you help me carry her to your guy's room?"

Natasha POV
I took Y/N from Wanda and carried her to our room. "Are you going to tell me what's happening? Cause she sure isn't."

"Nat..."

"Tell. Me." I forced her.

"Her powers... Her powers doesn't heal, it resets. It takes data from the previous system and overrides the current one, that's why she's able to save Sam this time."

"That doesn't explain why she's unconscious."

"She... She feels the pain of the victim that is compressed to a fraction of a second. When she can't bear the pain, like today, she passes out."

"So you're saying this afternoon she wasn't training, but was heali- resetting people?"

"Just let her sleep. Turn her every few hours. She doesn't like to sleep straight. Call me when she wakes up." Wanda stated before heading out.

I turned to face Y/N and she was just sleeping as if nothing has happened. Like Wanda said, every few hours, I turned her to each side so she's more comfortable. I was turning her on her left when she slowly opened her eyes. "Y/N! How are you feeling? Are you okay?" She looked at me but didn't reply. I remembered Wanda asking me to call her so I left to knock on her door.

Your POV
I felt someone turning me so I opened my eyes. Nat asked me a series of questions but I have no energy to reply. She went to get Wanda and left me on my side.

Wanda came in front of me and started communicating with me using her powers. She has enough experience to know that I can't speak right away after waking up.

"How are you feeling? You're not in any pain right?" Wanda checked on me first.

"No..." I replied to her in my mind. "I just need to rest. Can you tell Nat not to worry."

"Y/N fine. She's telling you not to worry. She just needs more sleep. Keep doing what you are doing and she should be fine by the end of the day." Wanda patted Nat's shoulder before stepping out.

I gave her a light smile to comfort her because who knows what's going on in her mind.

"It didn't take away your life or anything right?" I shook my head slightly. Honestly, my most comfortable position is snuggling with Nat but I can't tell her now since Wanda is not here. But Nat was able to tell and brought me closer to her. Within seconds of closing my eyes, I fell asleep again.

---

Few hours later, I woke up again feeling, better being able to walk and all, but Nat insisted on carrying me down. Everyone was asking if I was okay since they freaked out. Sam was also there, he was already up and running after resetting him.

"Your powers are so amazing." Bruce commented.

"Thanks." I could feel Nat's grip tighter on my hands.

"Imagine all the people you can heal in the world." Steve said.

"NO!" Nat shouted. "You people have no idea what she's going through." She stood up.

"Nat!" I pulled her away. "Sorry guys." 

"What are you doing! Those guys don't know anything." I dragged Nat into the room.

"I can't let you keep fainting after you reset them." She argued.

"I get better afterwards. Without my powers I don't provide anything to the team and it's not like you guys come back every day almost dying. Most of the time it's just a few wounds to clean up. I'll be fine Nat."

"It hurts me to see you suffer."

"I know you'll be there when I need you." Just then I heard a knock and Steve came in.

"I just wanted to say sorry for anything I said earlier."

"No it's okay, I'm fine." I assured him. I understood where he came from, it would be nice to safe people from terminal illness. He left and it's back to me and Nat again.

"Just promise me you won't do anything stupid."

"I can't just let people die in front of me."

"PROMISE ME!" Nat raised her voice.

"I promise you I won't die because of this."

Inspired by Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei (The Irregular at Magic High School) anime/manga. Honestly a nice anime to watch. But this power only comes at the end.

Sorry it's a bit more 'dialogy' at the end.
