You guys have finally devised a plan that you all agreed to. Now you just wait, hidden, for the titan himself. Thanos finally appears out of no where in front of Strange who is sitting on some steps.

Strange: Oh, yeah, youre much more of a "Thanos".

Thanos: I take it the Maw is dead. This day extracts a heavy toll. Still, he accomplished his mission.

Strange: You may regret that. He brought you face-to-face with the Master of the Mystic Arts.

Thanos: And where do you think he brought you?

You look around to see Peter peaking up from wreckage as well as Quill hiding behind some kind of ship with his weapon ready.

Strange: Let me guess... Your home?

Thanos smiles reminiscently.

Thanos: It was. And it was beautiful.

He curls his hand into a fist and uses the Reality Stone to show Titan before it was destroyed. Green lawns, intact buildings, water-filled ponds, strolling citizens, the jack-like structures hovering and connected to the ground-based buildings with beams of energy.

Thanos: Titan was like most planets. Too many mouths, and not enough to go around. And when we faced extinction, I offered a solution.

Strange: Genocide.

Thanos: But at random, dispassionate, fair to rich and poor alike. They called me a madman. And what I predicted came to pass.

He relaxes his fist and the illusion fades back into the true state of Titan. Strange speaks sarcastically.

Strange: Congratulations. Youre a prophet.

Thanos: Im a survivor.

Strange: Who wants to murder trillions.

Thanos: With all six stones, I could simply snap my fingers, and the would all cease to exist. I call that... Mercy.

Strange stands.

Strange: And then what?

Thanos: I finally rest... And what the sun rise on a grateful universe. The hardest choices require the strongest wills.

Strange summons his shields and gets in a fighting pose.

Strange: I think youll find ours will equal to yours.

Thanos: Ours?

You and Tony push a large piece of wreckage into the titan to quickly before he can react, crushing him.

Tony: Piece of cake, Quill.

Quill: Yeah, if your goal was to piss him off!

The wreckage on top of Thanos erupts in purple, as he bellows in rage. He turns the hovering fragments into a flock of bats with the Reality Stone and swarms Tony with them, driving hin back through the ruins. Peter webs his eyes, and swings in to kick him in the face at the same time that Drax leaps from cover, blades in both hands, to knee-slide behind Thanos and try for a tendon slide across the back of the Titan's knee. Strange jumps through a portal and summons a sword of golden energy, dueling with Thanos while Drax attacks similarly on his other side. Thanos punches Drax through a ruined wall, then shatters the blade with one hand and tears the web from his eyes. He advances on Strange and kicks him, and you fly over and catch him before he hits the ground. Quill has been making his way back on the ground, and shoots Thanos from behind. Thanos uses the power Stone to shoot balls of energy at Quill while he leaps towards Thanos using magical platforms thrown in his path by Strange, the last one placed above Thanos's head so Quill can flip over him and slap a mine on the titans back. Quill sticks his landing, he disengages his helmet, flips Thanos off and falls backward into a portal.
