[ WP ] The death of a hero- due to their Sidekick 's mistake .

Vision. 
 
 It was n't much an ability, but it helped in an odd moment. 
 
 It was n't just vision, not just the ability to see. It was more than that. Vision -- He took his name by the simple ability that he had acquired -- explained countless times that he could see sounds, and that he could *see* a person's actions just seconds before they happened. 
 
 In fact, it was quite a useful little skill. In a simple fist fight Vision would often win without throwing more than a single punch. Being a sidekick had it's benefits, as he hardly fought anyone more skilled or powerful than his own skill level. Mostly he just ran distraction for his Big. 
 
 Puncher, he called himself. That was Vision's Big. Big is what the sidekicks called their `` superhero'' partner. Vision had a few friends in the sidekick business, most of them did n't have any particular ability. He considered himself lucky for being *more* than them. Usually. 
 
 Vision was helpful to Puncher, as long as he was close enough to the fight to *see* his opponent. That was n't the case this evening. Vision had made a grave mistake in this evening's snafu. He bobbed when he should have weaved, and ended up with a broken rib or two, unable to speak. And that was the key to Vision's partnership. He would call out movements and battle suggestions to his Big. Lungs out of air, all he could do was **see**. 
 
 What it was Vision *saw* that night could have been prevented. And all he could do was *see* it again and again. Not in the way he saw it when Puncher leaned directly into a punch that *wasn't*, then *was*. Vision *saw* puncher dodge into a punch, then *saw* him vanish. Not his body, but something else. The phantom bodies he *saw* when things had n't happened yet. 
 
 Puncher was dead, and Vision *saw* it happen.
