Breaking Barriers

Confrontation

"Agatha!" Wanda calls out as she hovers around the town, searching for the violet witch she imprisoned. "Agatha come on out!"

Meanwhile

Spider-Man goes flying through a brick wall by Victor's immense strength, shaking off the pain as he dodges Victor's incoming laser beams from his eyes.

"Jump and crawl around all you want Spider, you'll be splattered all across the town when I finish you off!" Victor manically laughs as his beams chases around Spider-Man, destroying everything in his path in the chase.

"I'm a God Spider-Man, you're nothing more than a conniving creature evading the inevitable." He sadistically smiles as he approaches the arachnid hero, phasing through his web shots with each step closer.

*Ol Pete you did it now, you've got yourself fighting a synthetic being with a God complex. It's gonna take more than Spider Power to tackle mister Skynet here.* Spidey gets up and tries to leap over Victor but the powerful being swiftly grabs him, spinning him around till he is thrown in the sky.

"Now for the fatality." Victor grins preparing to fire his lasers into the sky as Spider-Man continues to fly upwards towards the roof of the barrier.

Victor fires his lasers towards him but Spider-Man manages to dodge at the last second as he's flung out of the dome back into the outside world, Victor's beams penetrating it all the way to the sky.

Spider-Man manages to land into a tree and climbs down it safely as he tries to figure out what to do next but something triggers his spider sense as the dome begins to glow red, purple, and yellow in a strobe effect before Wanda rockets from it and crashing into the grass like a meteorite covered in scrapes and bruises.

"Wanda!" He goes to leap over before a laser shoots through his leg causing him to tumble down in pain as he grips his leg.

"H-How?" Wanda coughs weakly, looking up to see Victor and Agatha hovering towards her as she tried to get up but Victor blasts her back into Jess's car breaking the windshield.

"How are you stronger than me?" Wanda coughs out again this time with some blood spitting out, clutching her bruised broken arm.

"I'm a witch Wanda, why would I offer out all my secrets to another witch I don't trust?"

"I trusted you." She glares angrily at her before she feels purple tendrils seeping from the car whip around her neck and her unbroken arm pulling back but Wanda resists firmly.

"You never should've imprisoned me there Wanda, I'm down to two lives now thanks to that stunt the private detective pulled unsupervised."  

"You want my power isn't it? I won't let you have it without a fight!" She snaps at her, her eyes trying to glow red but they flicker confusing her.

She keeps trying to access her powers but the flames of red energy flicker and the dome of Westview begins to dissolve away in front of her eyes.

"I planned this ever since I heard about you, I been trying to take back what's rightfully mine for centuries now and now I figured it out all thanks to you." Agatha says hovering besides her, touching her cheek but Wanda jerks away angrily with gritted teeth.

Wanda begins to feel weaker as she slumps her head down panting, feeling her clothes and hair revert back to her to her 80s style and her skin fading back and forth between normal and pale.

"It'll only hurt for a moment Wanda, I still wanted to do all this as painless as possible for you dear cause you're such a special girl to me." She lifts her chin up for Wanda's tired face to look at her sympathetic one.

"This power is mines Agatha, you can't have it." Wanda moans weakly. Agatha sushes her softly stroking her face and hair before Wanda slumps back against the car unconscious being completely drained.

"But now it's mine Wanda, thank you for holding onto it for awhile but now it's time for you to revert back to the mortal life you were supposed to live." Agatha smiles, placing her hand onto Wanda's chest letting her new power heal Wanda's injuries as her gift.

"Victor we're leaving." Agatha says, turning around to see Victor tossing Spider-Man around the field while she was in the process.

"Can't I crush the Spider please Agatha dear?" Victor asks almost in a whining manner as he holds a ruffled Spider-Man by the throat.

"We got what we came here for Victor, Spider-Man gets to live another day." She points warningly at him, Victor reluctantly drops Spider-Man down as the two fly off from the scene.
