Pietro got excited with this goal, he definitely didn't want to die hit by bullets, even if he had to save someone, so reaching Mach 4 speed was the training goal.
"Remember, I'm training you to be a hero, so don't be an idiot and sacrifice yourself to save someone. If you can't save a person, don't die for it. Think that you have your sister to take care of, and you're strong enough to save many people in the future. Let one die and don't sacrifice yourself." Jack said.
"I understand, I won't waste my life easier," Pietro said, keeping Jack's words in his heart.
"Very well, I'll demonstrate the Mach 4 speed you can achieve. Try to follow me with your eyes." Jack said and then disappeared at high speed. He ran circles and loops around the place he created, leaving trails for Pietro to see.
Jack stopped and saw Pietro shocked. He didn't know that Pietro's training goal was something Jack was already capable of. Jack running was much slower than flying, after all, he had to use his legs to run and avoid breaking the ground while running.
But at least once, he had to show Pietro how to run. Jack could use a speed several times faster than this currently, but that was not necessary, and Pietro might not even see him running.
"That treadmill was created for you. You can run on it to increase your stamina and endurance, so you won't get tired easily while running. When you can run for 1 hour without stopping at a certain speed, you can increase your speed." Jack said.
"I understand," Pietro said and started training.
Jack remembered in the movie that after running at maximum speed for a while, Pietro would quickly get tired and put his hands on his chest after running for a few minutes he had his hands on his chest, so building up stamina was more important than running fast.
That's why Jack was lucky that as his strength increased, his endurance and speed increased too, so Jack would never have to worry about it, even when using the Raiton Chakura Mōdo or opening the Inner Gates.
Wanda was happy to see her brother improving and continued to train herself. Kitty also started training her skills so she wouldn't be left doing anything, only Anna was bored, but Jack sometimes kept her company.
Soon Wanda improved a lot in her training, and Jack also improved while watching and training Wanda. So he felt it was time to solve Anna's power problems. He called Anna, Kitty, and Wanda into the Mirror Dimension for this.
Jack knew Kitty was reliable and she could watch. He would solve Anna's problems, and Wanda would watch and learn what she could do in the future. As soon as they all arrived, he looked at Wanda and Anna.
"Wanda, I said that my powers and yours are similar. While I help you train, I can also improve my own powers. So today, I'm going to show you what it's like to change reality to the extreme," said Jack.
"Anna, I've spent the last few months studying how I could do this in an effective and safe way for you. Now I'm fully confident that I can allow you to completely control your powers, so you can touch anyone in the future and activate your powers only when you want to," said Jack, smiling.
Anna and Kitty were shocked to hear this. They had seen Jack's powers, but they never imagined he could change the powers of mutants. If this were true, then perhaps Jack could even take away the powers of other mutants.
Now they understood why even though Jack trusted them, he made them sign a magical contract. After all, his powers were much greater than anyone thought. Anna was happy to know she could control her powers.
She was happy and conflicted about it, Anna had already decided she would break up with Jack when they returned to New York, and now he was giving her the thing she had always dreamed of.
Anna understood how Jack must have thought and trained to do something that even she thought was impossible. If it were anything else, Anna might have refused to avoid feeling more guilty, but controlling her powers was something that only Jack could help her with.
Anna thought that Professor Xavier had helped her several times and she was just grateful, so she would also be grateful to Jack for helping her control her powers and would not stay with him because of it.
"Thank you so much, Jack. You'll be fulfilling my biggest dream after helping me control my powers," Anna said, crying with joy and guilt.
"Don't worry, Wanda, look closely so you can learn," Jack said.
Soon Jack had to focus very hard on his magic and on controlling the reality stone and the mind stone. Jack first controlled Anna's powers with the reality stone and his magic and then unlocked the mental blocks she had with her powers.
Thus, Anna's ability to control her own blocked powers was increasing. The reality stone kept her powers under control, so it took a few minutes for Anna to control her powers.
Without the reality stone, Anna would have to improve a few more times to control her powers and could even kill someone while doing so, but Jack managed to keep Anna's powers under control, so she wouldn't have mental blocks and could continue to improve.
Anna had her eyes closed and felt the changes in her body. Kitty watched everything with curious eyes, and she was excited for Anna to be able to control her powers, and Wanda was the only one who could see what Jack was doing and tried to learn something.
Soon Jack sighed, and Anna opened her eyes. Her eyes shone with yellow, then red, then back to normal color. Anna knew something had changed, but she didn't know if she could control her powers now.
"I did it. Now you'll always be able to control your powers, Anna. No one can mess with your mind or lose control of your powers. With time, you'll get better and stronger with your powers. You can touch Kitty to see," Jack said happily.
Anna still couldn't believe it took only a few minutes to fulfill the dream she had always had since awakening her mutant powers. Kitty approached Anna, took off her gloves, and touched her hands.
As Jack had said, Anna's power had not been activated and Kitty could touch her hands normally, so Kitty gave Anna a kiss on the cheek and hugged her happily. Anna, who realized what had happened, began to cry and soon the two friends cried together, embracing.
Wanda was curious as to why Anna was so emotional, but she couldn't read her mind, which had been so protected by Jack. But she could read Kitty's mind, so she saw some scenes from Anna's past and understood why she was so emotional.
Wanda also understood what mutants were and even Kitty's fear that with Jack's powers, he could take their powers away. But from what Wanda saw, this would be a blessing for many mutants who had always suffered discrimination and were not as strong as Kitty and Anna.
When Wanda was thinking of stopping reading Kitty's mind because Jack had taught her that it was wrong, she saw that Kitty was in love with Jack and that his girlfriend, Anna, was thinking of breaking up with him even though he had helped her so much.
This left Wanda confused, but she couldn't tell Jack. She believed that Jack really didn't read the minds of Anna and Kitty, otherwise, he would have known a long time ago that Anna wanted to break up with him and maybe wouldn't have made such an effort to help her control her powers.
Jack didn't know anything, and he was happy to see Anna emotionally. He knew that she would never have to suffer as a mutant again and could even live as an Avenger now that she controlled her powers.
In the following days, Wanda's training continued, but Jack wasn't as happy because Anna told him that she wanted to go back to the X-mansion. Jack had invited Anna, but he hadn't told her that Sokovia would be so boring. Since Anna didn't have much to train, she spent the whole day bored.
Jack kept Anna here because he had to help her control her powers, but now that he had done that, Anna asked to go back to the X-mansion. She also had to say that she had managed to control her powers on her own.
What Jack didn't know was that Anna always felt guilty around him after he had helped her this time. Anna had already decided that she would break up with Jack, and his helping her control her powers only increased the debt of gratitude she would have to him.
"Alright, Anna, I'll take you to the X-mansion, in one or two months at most, I'll come back to see you, and I promise I won't have to leave again for the next few months," Jack said with a smile.
Jack felt sad and opened the portal to the X-mansion, and Anna left with her things, giving Jack a smile. He felt bad about it but soon closed the portal. Jack gave everyone a day of rest, and then they returned to training.
Jack asked if Kitty wanted to go back too, but she said she wanted to stay until the end of the training. After all, it was fun to watch him and Wanda create things to train with. Jack agreed because he found it fun too.
In addition to Wanda's telekinesis training, the chaos magic training was to create and shape small things like toys, balls, dice, rings, and small items. At first, they were just creations with chaos magic.
But Jack already trained with real stones and wood, and thus the objects he created with the reality stone would be eternal. Creating small things with real materials without increasing their composition was the limit for Jack to create something permanent.
With all six infinity stones together, Jack could even create some planets permanently. He could also create life and easily revive the dead, just like the Avengers did when they undid what Thanos did.
But without all six infinity stones, anything Jack created had a shelf life and would eventually return to what it was before. If Jack had both the time stone and the power stone, then he could create things permanently, but he couldn't create life or revive the dead without the soul stone.
The space stone increased the range of his creation, the time stone made it eternal if it was with the power stone that could enhance the powers of the infinity stones, and the mind stone helped create complex things.
That's why without all 6 infinity stones together, Wanda's chaos magic was more powerful. She could create small things permanently without any infinity stone, but if she had the reality stone, she could create much more.
Jack believed that his current power was the same, after all, as he had an unlimited talent for magic, which included higher forms of chaos magic. That's why the system said that with training, Jack could even create life.
And Jack confirmed this with his training with Wanda. The things he created from stone and wood, although small, were eternal. They could break, but his magical transformation had become a reality.
That's why it's called the reality stone and not the illusion stone, as its ultimate principle is to change reality. Kitty asked Jack to create different toys, rings, and wooden dolls to help with the training, and Jack did.
Kitty was happy and planned to keep these things with her when she returned to the X-mansion. Pietro continued training, and as the treadmill Jack created was intended for Flash to use, it was naturally useful for Pietro's training.
Jack said that when they left, the treadmill would disappear, so Pietro pushed himself in training because he couldn't use it for long. Jack advised Pietro to first increase his endurance, as his speed hadn't improved much, but he could run at Mach 1 for an hour without stopping.
Another month of training passed, and Jack improved his use of the reality stone. He could create many things and maintain them permanently with his magic. Wanda had also started creating small stone toys, and Jack saw that they were permanent.
Seeing this, Jack decided to end this isolated training. He would still help Wanda and Pietro in the future, but they no longer needed to be isolated and could train in New York. Jack planned to take them out of Sokovia, and the twins had agreed to go with him.
