Terry Ward closed the door behind Cassie Lang, rested his forehead against the frame, and shuddered. He’d seen a lot of strange and disturbing things since coming to Camp Hammond, but there was something about getting inside that girl’s head that was really awful. There was so much blood, and she was so alone.
He inhaled through his nose and returned to his desk, reaching for a pen. He wasn’t sure what he was going to put in his report, but it was painfully clear that something was wrong with Stature, and things needed to be done to help her.
He jotted down a note to himself about trying to find the Vision, or one of the other Young Avengers. She needed someone she felt really connected to, something that she really didn’t have in the Initiative. Sure, she spouted the rhetoric well, and it looked damn good to have her visibly there, on camera, in front of the press, but she was about to crack under all the pressure, and Terry didn’t want to see that happen.
