EVERYONE FOLLOWS SUIT AS OUR HEROES FLOOD THE FIELD.

ACROSS THE WAY, THANOS SMILES AND POINTS HIS BLADE. TWO MIGHTY ARMIES RACE TOWARD EACH OTHER UNTIL...CLASH!

GIANT-MAN SLUGS A LEVIATHAN IN THE JAW.

DRAX launches himself onto a CULL currently choking the life out of KORG.

TONY blasts overhead. RESCUE joins him. Together, theystrafe the field.

STEVE and THOR fight together. Both hold out their hands.

Stormbreaker returns to Steve, Mjolnir to Thor, who frowns.

THOR
No. You take the little one.

Elsewhere, TONY BATTLES SEVERAL CULLS. One knocks him intoan Outrider, who’s about to rip his armor off when...

THWIP. PETER PARKER webs the Outrider, yanking him into the path of...GIANT-MAN’S FOOT.

SQUISH.
Tony stares at Peter, emotional. They retract their helmets.

PETER PARKER
Mr. Stark. Holy cow, you would notbelieve what’s been going on. Doyou remember when we were in space? And I got all dusty? I must’vepassed out, because I woke up andyou weren’t there, but Dr. Strange was, and he was like, “it’s beenfive years, they need us.” And hestarted doing that yellow sparklything he does. But...

Tony just wraps his arms around him, smashing Peter’sface into his chest plate.

PETER PARKER (CONT'D)
(muffled)
Oh. This is nice.

ACROSS THE FIELD... QUILL flies, firing down on Sakaaran soldiers. One leaps off an outcropping...

TACKLING QUILL INTO A WRECKED FUSELAGE, WHERE ANOTHERSAKAARAN WAITS.

Quill drops one, but the other raises his weapon to strike.THEN BLAM! The Sakaaran drops dead on top of Quill.

He pushes the body off to see...GAMORA, BLASTER STILL SMOKING. Quill stares, amazed.

QUILL
Gamora?

HE APPROACHES, OVERWHELMED, EMOTIONAL.�

QUILL (CONT'D)
