How to Introduce Wanda Maximoff in the Fox's X-Men

As fans of comic books, and obviously, comic book movies, we get excited with having two different versions of Marvel's Quicksilver.
X-Men Days of Future Past has an incredible scene with the character and a outstanding and funny performance from Evan Peters. Avenger's Quicksilver is a darker one, and has more participation - and some disappointing sootings of his powers, after what Bryan Singer has shown.
But the spotlight of Avengers' Maximoff plot is definitely Wanda, a.k.a Scarlet Witch.

The thing with Fox's movies is that Wanda didn't show herself yet, and I think is time to her appear.

But how to introduce her?
Let's suppose that she will appear in X-Men Apocalypse (and it's kind of impossible, whe wasn't confirmed until now and the shooting started about one/two weeks ago).
How the problematic and "freak" Scarlet Witch must be?

Well, we have a great context for her in the 80's. The gothic culture was in its boom, and Wanda - as her headbanger/punky brother - may had joined the wave. So we get this (just a rough made by me):



Based upon "House of M" concept for her powers, I developed upon the maxim that her "witchcrafts" are based on reality's manipulation.

The concept is: her powers see the reality as a web, with infinite pieces (as cubes), and her power is control this web. She can get bigger or smaller cubes and "disturb" their positions (as we see in a simplist way on the image).
The visual go to this direction, showing her powers in a soft red light between the space gaps that exists 'tween the "reality's cubes".
Visual effects for this should be very smart, turning the movements of the cubes organic and with a perfect flowing, seeing it as a natural thing, not a video game thing.

For my self, the best "runner" to play Scarlet Witch is Dakota Fanning, who gets stunning as brunette, is a outstanding actress, can play some really creepy characters and can easily be an twin sister to Evan Peters' Quicksilver!
One thing I'm sure: Possibilities are infinite, and I think a traumatic experience for her in Apocalypse, is the best way to start - who knows? - a plot for a "House of M" movie, hu?

What about it Fox?
