Skylar was thinking of a plan when she heard a loud boom. The sound was coming from one of the sides of the giant walls Agatha had created. Skylar knew exactly what was causing it, the Avengers. She teleported quickly to the south side of the city. There she saw them, trying to get through those magical barriers that weren't allowing them to pass.

"Where's Thor and Carol?!" Skylar asked.

"They're still in space... on their way- is this wall indestructible or something?" Tony blasted the walls once again but nothing happened.

"These walls are made of a magical substance that is very resilient. According to the information about magical barriers I have in my database, it seems to be more vulnerable on the inside than on the outside," Vision scanned the walls looking for a weak spot.

"Yeah yeah, what the talking computer said," Clint stated.

"Vis, try to go through the walls," Wanda said.

"Oh right," Vision tried to go through the magical barriers but he couldn't.

"Something isn't letting my body go through these walls... it's very... strange," Vision said.

"Perfect! The talking toaster doesn't know how to help Skylar," Clint said, walking to the walls.

"We'll try everything in our power to help you, okay buttercup?" Clint told Skylar.

"Okay, uncle Clint," Skylar let out a small smile.

Clint wasn't Skylar's biological uncle. But since him and the rest of the Avengers helped raise her, she felt like they were her family... Except Tony, who was her biological father. Having her "family" there gave her the encouragement to do something to stop Agatha.

"I have a plan of how to defeat Agatha," Skylar said while looking up at the walls around Westview.

"And that is...?" Tony asked.

"It's a complex plan, I don't have time to explain it," Skylar said, looking her father in the eyes.

"But-" Tony was worried about his little princess.

"I'll be okay dad. I know I don't know a lot of magic, but I'm sure I'll be able to perform these 'magic tricks'," Skylar said. Her eyes turned blue and then she disappeared in a blink.

"Do you think she'll be able to do this?" Tony asked Wanda.

"If she stays concentrated, most probably," Wanda said while Strange was levitating, seeing the future to make sure Skylar defeated Agatha at the end without destroying half of the universe in a snap. 

Skylar's POV

I'm not 100% sure if I know how to do these spells but I have nothing to lose, well... I do. About my plan... Agatha helped me without knowing it. I just need time to do what I have to do. All this chaos made me forget that I have a new suit. With a simple hand movement the suit was already on me, now I'm ready for the battle. Nat taught me breathing techniques to stay calm, I must thank Nat after this. I do my breathing techniques and my eyes turn yellow. Snap.

Normal POV

"You can fly but you can't hide Skylar!" Agatha yelled.

Skylar was nowhere to be seen.

"Okay then! So you want me to erase this town from existence?" Agatha yelled while making a ball of magic.

"That new face you have fits you horribly," Skylar laughed.

"What about this sudden confidence boost? You surprise me Skylar," Agatha said with a mocking grin on her face.

"Well, it was time to encourage myself and do things right, don't you think?" Skylar said, smirking. She didn't seem to be herself, literally.

The both of them started fighting, throwing balls of energy at each other. Most of those balls of energy were dodged, and the ones that hit were almost like tickles. The Avengers and the citizens including Peter and Farah were watching down on the ground. Wanda and Stephen knew exactly what Skylar was doing, but telling the other would cause a fuss. The ones that didn't know what Skylar was planning, noticed something was off, the Skylar that was fighting wasn't the Skylar they knew.

"Wanda. Stephen. Is there something you're not telling us?" Clint said, when it was about his niece he would do anything for her to be okay.

"Uhm..." Wanda trailed off.

"Spit it out. Now." Tony said, staring at Wanda

"Our lips are sealed," Stephen said, looking confidently at Tony.

"Wanda." Tony glared at Wanda.

"She is letting the preceding Infinity Witch- well her ghost or something to take control of her body while Skylar is on an astral projection absorbing magic energy to send Agatha to the infinite dimension," Wanda said quickly so Tony wouldn't understand.

"What?!" Somehow Tony understood.

"And you know that... how?" Clint was acting like he was calm but he was worried about Skylar.

"I'm talking with Skylar telepathically," Wanda said, tensing up.

"What?!" Tony exclaimed again.

"Witches can do that, in case you didn't know..."

"Of course I didn't know! How would I know?! And what the hell is the infinite dimension? Is that safe?!" Tony was freaking out with what he had just heard.

"The infinite dimension is this place between universes where only the Infinity Witch can access by her magic. Whoever that is sent there can only be brought back by her. It is... apparently safe..." Wanda mumbled the last part.

"What do you mean by 'apparently safe'?!" Tony was about to lose his marbles.

"It's said that in the infinite dimension all kinds of supernatural creatures are held. Those creatures were confined by the previous Infinity Witches. As long as she doesn't free them it will be safe," Wanda fiddled with her fingers.

"What if she does?" Natasha asked, genuinely worried.

Wanda and Stephen looked at each other sadly and that gave the answer to the others. Tony's heart started pumping quickly, he would be lying if he said he wasn't scared, because he was. What if something happened to Skylar? Skylar was supposed to move to Westview to start over and be happy again. All he could do was watch.

In the moment Skylar returned to her body Agatha froze completely still.

"What- how-"

"I might not know how to stop time yet but I'm going to send you where you can't hurt anybody else, I'm going to send you where only I rule," Skylar said, opening a shiny circular shaped portal.

"The i-infinite dimension? How do you know about that?" Agatha knew she couldn't run away from it, she didn't expect Skylar to find out about the Infinite Dimension so soon.

"I learn fast, after all I'm a witch. I'm the Infinity Witch," Skylar said, dragging Agatha inside the portal.

"Please don't! Don't do this please, that place is horrible," Agatha begged. She hadn't been in the Infinite Dimension yet, but the magic books said that the dimension was everyone's worst nightmare. How could they know... the ones that go in never come back.

"You should have thought about that before you came for me, now it's too late," Skylar said, walking into the portal determined to get rid of Agatha, who was magically handcuffed to her.
