Wanda Maximoff Multiversal Harem Hunter

The clang of their boots on the metal staircase reverberated in the silence as Wanda Maximoff, Eska Vryn, and Jasmine ascended to the fourth floor of Hydra's Citadel. Behind them, the third floor lay in ruins, smoke curling from the devastation they had unleashed. Ahead, the fourth floor awaited—a fortified stronghold bristling with Hydra's final line of defense before their ultimate confrontation with the King and the traitor.

Eska glanced at Jasmine, whose cybernetic form shimmered faintly before vanishing entirely, her advanced cloaking system rendering her invisible. "Still can't believe we found that upgrade back there," Eska muttered, shaking her head. "She's like a damn ghost now."

"More than a ghost," Wanda said, her voice steady as her crimson eyes glowed faintly. "She's our ace in the hole."

The heavy steel door at the top of the stairs loomed ahead, humming faintly with power. Wanda turned to Eska, her lips curling into a faint smirk. "When we get in there, Eska, what's your plan?"

Eska arched a brow, twirling a grenade between her fingers. "What do you think, Maximoff?"

"Do what you do best," Wanda said, a sly grin spreading across her face. "Blow shit up."

Eska chuckled, the faintest hint of mischief gleaming in her blue eyes. "Finally, someone who understands my art."

Jasmine growled softly, her invisible form prowling silently around them. Wanda placed a hand on the tiger's shoulder, the faint hum of her cloaking system vibrating beneath her fingers. "Time to show me what that upgrade can do, girl."

With a flick of her wrist, Wanda sent a pulse of crimson magic into the door. The steel groaned before sliding open, revealing the sprawling chamber beyond. Hydra's elite Strike Team Beta stood waiting, their black-and-red armor gleaming under the sterile lights. At their center, their leader—a towering figure with a crackling cybernetic arm—stepped forward, his voice booming through the room.

"Maximoff," he sneered, his gaze flicking between Wanda and her companions. "You've been a thorn in the King's side for too long. But this is where your rebellion ends."

Wanda stepped forward, her crimson eyes glowing brighter as she twirled the Chitauri Scepter. Chaos magic crackled around her like a living storm. "Funny," she replied, her voice as cold as ice. "I was about to say the same thing to you."

The leader raised his arm, and his squad sprang into action, their movements precise and deadly. Eska wasted no time. Pulling the pin on a grenade, she lobbed it into the center of the room.

"Catch," she called out, her voice casual.

The explosion rocked the chamber, sending several soldiers flying. Smoke and debris filled the air as Jasmine disappeared into the chaos, her cloaking system rendering her a silent predator.

The first soldier fell without a sound, Jasmine's cybernetic claws slicing through his armor as she dragged him into the shadows. Another turned, his weapon shaking in his hands, but he barely had time to raise it before Jasmine pounced, her glowing blue eyes the last thing he saw.

Meanwhile, Wanda surged forward, chaos magic flaring around her. She raised her free hand, sending a wave of crimson energy that slammed into a squad of soldiers, disarming them. With a flick of her wrist, she turned two soldiers against their own, their energy rifles blazing indiscriminately.

Eska reveled in the destruction. Tossing another grenade, she grinned as the blast sent shards of debris raining down. "Maximoff!" she called out over the chaos. "Try not to steal all the glory!"

"Glory?" Wanda shot back, using the scepter to parry an incoming blade before slamming it into her attacker's chest. "You couldn't handle my kind of glory."

Eska smirked, ducking under a stray shot as she planted a block of C4 on a support column. "I'll stick to what I'm good at—making things go boom."

The leader of Strike Team Beta roared, his cybernetic arm glowing with crackling energy. He charged at Wanda, his massive frame barreling through the chaos. "Enough games, Maximoff! Face me!"

Wanda twirled the scepter, meeting his charge with unflinching precision. His arm swung in a wide arc, but she ducked, countering with a burst of magic that forced him back. "Is this really the best you've got?" Wanda taunted, her voice sharp. "I've seen children with more skill."

The leader growled, his movements growing more desperate as Wanda dodged his every attack. He lunged again, only for Wanda to sidestep and trip him with the scepter. As he hit the ground, she blasted him with chaos magic, forcing him to retreat.

"Eska," Wanda called out, her voice ringing with authority. "You're up."

Eska didn't hesitate. Pulling a grenade from her belt, she lobbed it directly at the leader. The explosion consumed him in a fiery inferno, the force of it shaking the entire floor. When the smoke cleared, the leader lay in a broken heap, his cybernetic arm shattered beyond recognition.

The room fell silent except for the crackling of small fires and the groans of wounded soldiers. Jasmine reappeared, her cloaking mechanism deactivating as she padded to Wanda's side, her blue eyes glinting with satisfaction as her tail swished lazily.

Eska surveyed the destruction, a satisfied smirk on her face. "Well, that was satisfying. What's next?"

Wanda's gaze turned upward, her expression hardening. "Next, we finish this. We take down the King and the traitor."

"This is it," Wanda said, her voice steady and resolute. "It's time for the final countdown."

Eska pulled out another block of C4, planting it with practiced ease on a central support beam. "One last touch before we go." She secured the explosive and pulled out a small red switch, holding it up with a grin.

"Don't worry, Wanda. I'm a professional at blowing shit up. I use a switch, not timers."

Eska grinned wider. "Now that's dramatic." She motioned toward the stairs. "Let's finish this."
