The Young Avengers are the heroes of tomorrow. But two of their members - twin brothers Wiccan and Speed - are boys without a past. When Wiccan's powers begin spiraling out of control, the team sets out to find the one person who might be able to help: the Scarlet Witch, who may be the twins' mother, and whose own uncontrollable powers once almost destroyed the Avengers and nearly wiped out the mutant race. Their search will take them across the world and through time, reunite them with friends thought lost, and pit them against enemies they have no hope of defeating; it will find them on the run from the Avengers and aligned with former mutant terrorist Magneto, the Scarlet Witch's father. And once they fi nd the Scarlet Witch, whose mere words can alter reality, nothing will ever be the same!
