(Y/n), America and Defender Stephen Strange are trying their best to escape a demon chasing them. Defender Strange turns to his opponent and casts a spell that freezes him temporarily. "Did it kill it?" (Y/n) asked in Spanish. "No! We'll kill it with this!" Defender Stephen said. "The Book of Vishanti!" America said. "We can't let it get your powers. Get to the book." He said. "How do we get across?" (Y/n) asked. "Jump!" He said. The three of them jumped, and Defender Stephen then did his best to hold back the monster. "It's too strong. I can't hold it." Defender Stephen Strange then starts taking their powers away. "What are you doing?!" America asked in panic. "We can't let that thing take your powers. You girls can't control them. But I can." Defender Stephen said. "But we're friends!" (Y/n) protested. "You're killing us!" She shouted. "I know. But in the grand calculus of the Multiverse, your sacrifices are worth more than your lives." Defender Strange suddenly gets impaled through the chest by the demon. The demon then restrains (Y/n), and she screams and opens up a star shaped portal. Defender Strange sees this and fires bolts to release the demon's grip on her, who falls through the portal. "(Y/n)!" America quickly jumped in after her sister. Defender Strange then falls into the portal as well.

Doctor Strange bolts awake and sits up in bed, breathing hard and he puts his hands over his face to clear his sweat. He runs his hands through his hair, looks around to calm himself down, then he sees his broken wrist watch, his face reflected into the watch face. Strange gets out of bed and picks up his watch. Strange dresses in formal clothing and walks to a mirror to put on his tie. After he short cuffs it, he uses his magic to straighten it, then he snaps his fingers to retrieve the Cloak of Levitation, which goes into his front shirt pocket. After Strange has his jacket on and walks through the New York Sanctum. Stephen sits down on a bench, waiting for the ceremony to begin. On his left he notices a familiar face. Doctor Nicodemus West, his former colleague and rival. "Doctor Strange." West greeted. "Doctor West." Strange greeted back. "Haven't seen you in a while." West said. "I was a little preoccupied being dust in the air for five years." Strange said. "So were a lot of us. While I was gone... thank you for asking... I lost both my cats. And my brother." West said. "I'm very sorry." Strange apologized. "Thank you. I, uh... I guess what keeps me up at night is wondering... Did it have to happen that way? Was there any other path?" West asked.

"No. But I made the only play we had." Strange said. "Of course, you do. The best surgeon and the best superhero. But you still didn't get the girl." West said. "Glass of red, please?" Christine asked. "Allow me, Miss." Doctor Strange uses his magic to refill Christine Palmer's glass with wine. "A little too on the nose?" He asked. "What, for you, at my wedding? Nah. It was perfect." She said. "Congratulations." He said. "Thank you. There's Charlie. I have to introduce you because he's kind of... It's embarassing, but he's a big fan." She said. "So... Hey, uh, Christine... umm... I should have... I wish it had been different. I never stopped caring about us, but I had to make sacrifices. To protect you." He said. "I'm sorry. It was never gonna work out between us." She said. "Why not?" He asked. "Because Stephen... 

You have to be the one holding the knife. And I always respected you for it, but I couldn't love you for it." She said. "How long have you had that one in the barrel?" He asked. "Long time." She said. "Yeah. I bet. Truly, I'm just glad that you're happy." He said. "I am. I really, really am." She said. "Good." He said. "Are you?" She asked. "I'm happy." He lied. "Good. You deserve it." She said. "Thank you." He said. A giant green tentacle monster with a huge eye comes ramping down the street destroying everything in its path. Doctor strange takes his ascot out of his pocket and it turns into his cloak. As he floats down, his dress suit turns into his mystical robes. People we're running away from something and Stephen used his magic to help, then spotted the two girls. The two girls run into a city bus as vehicles were getting thrown by something that couldn't be seen. The bus raises and starts to be crushed. Stephen moves his hands, and a giant one eyed octopus monster appears. The tentacles grabbed the bus and began squeezing it then glared at Stephen, who waved his hand.
