In my version of the MCU continuity, the Infinity War took place before the stuff that happened with Ultron, the Sokovia Accords, and the Civil War. Hope that's not too confusing for you guys!
Episode 84: Wanda's True Destiny!
"Interesting," Agatha remarked as she stared at the missile. "This must have happened during the War of the Ten Rings when the Ten Rings terrorist group attacked Sokovia City using missiles created by Stark Industries."
"Yes, and it was this city's protests that made Tony Stark's father Howard decide to no longer manufacture weapons," Wanda said, looking away from the missile.
"But after Howard made that decision, he was killed by an unknown assassin before Tony took over with his father's partner Obadiah Stane serving as his mentor," Agatha added. "Ironically, it was Obadiah who sold the missiles to the Ten Rings to make money off the war. He then went on to cause the Iron Monger Incident, leading to his subsequent imprisonment and Tony's first major act as a Marémon Hero."
"This information is public knowledge now," Wanda pointed out. "What's your point?"
Agatha paused and said, "First, I find it strange that you joined the same group Tony was in knowing his company was responsible for your parents' deaths. Second, that missile should have killed you and Pietro along with your parents."
"So what? People have survived missile attacks before."
"Looking at the blast radius, you and Pietro were closer to the missile than your parents. So both of you should have died instantly, yet you didn't."
Making a circle with her hand, Agatha caused the images to move backwards like a reversing a film. She then showed the missile entering the apartment frame-by-frame, and in a split second the brunette-haired girl Wanda raised her hands. A red energy emanated from them, causing the missile's explosion to miss her and the silver-haired boy Pietro while their parents weren't so lucky.
"Just as I thought," Agatha smirked. "You used Chaos Magic."
"Chaos Magic?" Wanda blinked.
"There are many types of magic in this world, but the two types that Witches use are Dark Magic and Chaos Magic," Agatha explained. "Dark Magic manipulates certain things in reality but never completely changes them, while Chaos Magic bends reality completely to the users' will and is more rare among Witches. Your magic must have lay dormant until that very moment when the missile struck, but then how can you be capable of the powerful magic you do now as a teenager?"
Rapidly, the images changed showing Wanda and Pietro in their pre-teens being taken to a gloomy facility in the mountains where the two were put in a room with a glowing blue stone.
"Ah, there's the answer!" Agatha exclaimed. "Team HYDRA brought you into their fold, and they exposed you and your brother to the Space Stone which gave Pietro his Mutant super-speed while your Chaos Magic was strengthened to the point where you could control minds and move objects via telekinesis."
"HYDRA promised to give us Marémon in exchange for being subjected to their experiments, which we agreed to do because we couldn't afford the PDBs to catch them," Wanda said, feeling tears in her eyes. "I was given Witchlet and Pietro got Quickze, the Matured forms of Wikkid and Spedfoal respectively. But later, we realized their reason for giving us Marémon was to see if the energy from the Infinity Stone that affected us could make Marémon stronger in turn. So we were planning to escape when the Avengers conveniently showed up and destroyed the facility. That was when we were approached by Ultron, who was a Marémon that Tony created to be the perfect being to save the world. But something in his programming went wrong and he escaped the lab Tony built him in."
As the facility was destroyed, the younger Wanda and Pietro wandered into the forest outside where a metallic Marémon came up to them. He looked like a broken mechanical doll, and spoke to them. In response, the siblings nodded before heading over to the Avengers team consisting of Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, a younger Professor Banner, Natasha Romanoff, and Thor Odinson.
"So you joined the Avengers with the intention of destroying them from the inside under the instruction of Ultron, who saw them as a threat to creating his perfect world," Agatha said. "But his plans were put on hold when Thanos appeared and used the Infinity Stones to reduce the universe's population by half. Then once order was restored, Ultron created Vistro to give himself the perfect body before Vistro betrayed him."
Wanda then saw herself fighting in the Infinity War alongside her brother with their Marémon and then Ultron trying to lift Sokovia City when he was suddenly taken down by Vistro. But among the wreckage left of Sokovia City was the dead body of Pietro, which made tears fall down Wanda's face. After that came images of the Marvo Region government putting the Sokovia Accords in place, followed by the Civil War where Tony's Ironfly destroyed the gemstone on Vistro's head which killed him instantly.
"Because you participated in the Civil War event, you served time in juvie while Vistro's body was taken away," Agatha said as the images now showed Wanda and Witchlet breaking into the SWORD facility where Vistro's body was kept to her creating the Hex Barrier. "Then after you stole Vistro's body, your grief over the ones you lost pushed your magic to a higher level with the Reality Stone serving as a medium to make this alternate reality we're standing in."
As Wanda continued to cry, the images faded and so once again she was standing in the room with the purple runes while Agatha still held Wanda's PDBs in one hand. With her other, Agatha summoned the Darkhold book. The cover was made of rusted metal and the book's pages were brittle with age.
"Why did you show me those painful memories?" Wanda said in an agonized tone. "Did you torture the other Witches you took power from this way?"
"No, I took their power straight away," Agatha answered while the Darkhold pages flipped on their own. "I just wanted to be sure you were the one."
"The one?" Wanda didn't understand.
"Before she died, my mother foretold of a Witch gifted with Chaos Magic who will reshape the world," Agatha said, holding up the open book to Wanda. "This Witch would become known as the Scarlet Witch for the large amount of blood spilled in her name, and have a Witchlet for a Marémon familiar."
On the page Agatha showed, Wanda saw a female figure wearing a crown similar to the one Evanora had while beside her floated a Witchlet.
