12 Interesting Age Of Ultron Theories Based On The Trailer

9. The Maximoffs Are Powered By Different Infinity Stones

It was hinted at in the Captain America: The Winter Soldier mid-credits scene that there is more than meets the eye when it comes to Loki's sceptre from the first Avengers movie. The likelihood is that it contains an Infinity Stone, which is interesting, but the fact that the twins - Wanda and Pietro Maximoff - were mentioned immediately after it in the scene seemed to suggest they were linked to it in some way. However, given that we have now seen Quicksilver emitting a blue glow - like the sceptre itself - could it be that he was powered by one Infinity Stone and Scarlet Witch is powered by another? We think Scarlet Witch gained her powers inadvertently when the Aether (which was red) was on Earth. Knowing that Quicksilver's DNA would be similar to hers, Baron von Strucker tested another Infinity Stone - the one in Loki's staff - on her brother, giving him his powers.
