I sit. I think. I itch. Mainly, I reflect on my past life from a dingy cell in Azkaban. Trying to see where it all went wrong, I see where it all went right.

Her heart has been broken by a bad boy. Her mind is being broken by a mad man. Crystal's new life is falling apart as quickly as she got used to it. Her loyalties to her teammates, family, and friends are tested as she beings to grow into her role as Mistress of the Elements. Pietro/QuicksilverxCrystal.
