The Present

  This is where Wanda goes when she manages to sneak off.  She struggles to control her abilities but try as she might, she can get it to work but the focus...the focus isn't there.  Hank has told her and her father, that there abilities are very similiar yet the electromagnetic energies around her crackle red.  She concentrates, and feels the energy around her, she focuses her thoughts on the metal debris in front of her, but everything metallic in the room starts to rise.  Henry suggested that her magnetic abilities are far stronger than her father's but perhaps too powerful.  She lacks the fine control her father has.  She struggles harder and she seeks to push bucket forward, instead everything moves forward.  Wanda screams and a flare of electromagnetic energy pulses from out of her.  At first, she is angry and then she laughs. 
'Witch' is what her brother called her when her abilities manifested first...'Red Witch'....no....Wanda thinks, 'Scarlet Witch'.  If Jean Grey can be the 'Marvel Girl', Wanda will be the 'Scarlet Witch'. 

"What are you doing Wanda?"  Peter comes streaking in, the smell of ozone about him.

"Just thinking" she says "Scarlet Witch sound good to you?"

Peter smiles "Well dad was going to call me Lightning, but after what we learned in California...I think 'Quicksilver' sounds cooler."

"I agree"  Wanda then looks at her brother "Do you think he knows?"

"Father?"

"No..of course Father who else dork?"

"I don't think so."  Peter says "I wonder if we can convince Jean to look into his head."

"Won't work"  Wanda says seriously "Our electro magnetic powers make it hard for telepaths to read..."

"Hard" Peter says "But not impossible."

"Well one thing is sure, she doesn't know and for now I like it that way."

"Agreed"

Wanda's design makes me happy.

On another note, what if Wanda's powers control/effect all four of the fundamental forces: Gravity, Electromagnetism, Strong and Weak Nuclear forces? It would put her pretty much at the top of the mutant food chain and could explain why her powers are so wonky...she's trying to do one thing but her powers are trying to do everything all at once and it shorts them out. Just food for thought.

Cheers,
