Vision: Wanda, I...

Corvus Glaive appears suddenly behind Vision, stabbing him through the back.

Wanda: Vision!

Vision then screams, loses his glamour to return to his green, red and gold appearance, and is thrown down into the street. As she circles her hands, gathering up energy for a counterattack when Proxima Midnight blasts her from behind, knocking the Wanda aka Scarlet Witch across the street and through a bistro's window.

Corvus then pins Vision down and digs the point of his high-tech glaive into Vision's forehead in an attempt to extract the Mind Stone. Wanda then commits her own surprise attack, blasts both of the aliens away, then lifts Vision and herself into a nearby courtyard, from where she drags him to rest in a concealed alleyway.

Vision: The blade. It stopped me from phasing.

Wanda: Is that even possible?

Vision: It isn't supposed to be. [His voice distorts electronically] My systems are failing.

Wanda gestures over his gaping wound, using her magic to knit him back together. Vision continues in a gasping, wry tone.

Vision: I'm beginning to think... we should have stayed in bed.

Corvus suddenly arrives, knocking her aside and grabbing Vision into the air.

Wanda: Viz!

Corvus flies away with Vision, slamming him against several walls. Meanwhile, Proxima engages Wanda with her staff weapon and they too begin to fight. 

Corvus: [To Vision] Give up the Stone, and she lives.

Vision then flies with Corvus to the roof of what appears to be a church, ricocheting off the stone church tower and onto the metal-clad roof.

Simultaneously, Proxima and Wanda fights below, staff weapon versus magic energy hands until Proxima uses the blaster effect of her weapon to knock Wanda meters away, stunning her as Proxima leaps down, brandishing her weapon within bare inches of the Wanda's face, only held back by the Wanda's powers.

Furiously, Vision then pummels Corvus, then throws him across the roof, firing a beam from the Mind Stone. Corvus uses his glaive to deflect the beam, splitting it into several beams, cutting up Edinburgh's ancient stone like butter, until one branch finally reflects back at Vision, slamming him into the wall behind him.

Down below, Wanda has blocked Proxima's staff once again when she hears an agonized cry from Vision. Desperation strengthens her to throw Proxima through the burning lorry sliced in half by the split Stone beam, stunning the alien. Wanda then flies up to the roof where Glaive has pinned Vision and is again attempting to remove the Mind Stone.

Wanda: Hands off.

Wanda then casts a bolt of magic which throws Corvus back through the wall and down a shaft, then flies the two of them away again. Proxima, who has recovered, shoots a bolt from her weapon, causing them to fall from the air and down through the roof of Edinburgh Waverley Train Station. Wanda crawls over to Vision, who cannot muster the strength to stand.

Wanda: [Hushed voice, pleading] Come on. Come on. Come on, you gotta get up. You gotta get up. Come on. Hey. Hey. We have to go.

Vision: Please. Please leave.

Wanda: You asked me to stay... I'm staying.

Vision: Please.

Wanda: Get up.
