"The hell happened to this planet? It's eight degrees off its axis. Gravitational pull is all over the place," Quill says.

"Yeah, we got one advantage. He's coming to us. We'll use it. All right, I have a plan. Or at least the beginnings of one. It's pretty simple. We draw him in, pin him down, get what we need. Definitely don't wanna dance with this guy. We just want the gauntlet," Tony says glancing at every guardian then spots Drax yawning,

"Are you yawning? In the middle of this, while I'm breaking it down? Huh? Did you hear what I said." Tony asks annoyed.

"I stopped listening after you said, 'We need a plan'." Drax answers.

"Okay, Mr. Clean is on his own page," Tony remarks

"See, 'not winging it' isn't really what they do," Quill says.

"Uh, what exactly is it they do?" Peter Parker asks.

"Kick names, take ass," Mantis answers,

"Yeah, that's right," Drax said, not realizing Mantis' mistake on her answer.

"Isn't it, take names, Kick ass?" Peter Parker questions dumbfoundedly.

"I'm taking a page out of roger's book. Language kid-" He then turns to Quil, "All right, just get over here, please. Mr. Lord, can you get your folks to circle up?" Iron-man says.

"'Mr. Lord'. Star-Lord is fine," Quill says ordering Drax and Mantis to gather up.

"We gotta coalesce. 'Cause if all we come at him with is a plucky attitude..."

"Dude-" cutting Tony off. "-don't call us plucky. We don't know what it means. All right, we're optimistic, yes. I like your plan. Except it sucks, so let me do the plan, and that way it might be really good," Quil says.

"Tell him about the dance-off to save the universe," Drax says.

"What dance-off?" Iron-man asks looking over to Peter.

"It's nothing, "Quill stammers.

"Like in Footloose, the movie?" Peter Parker pipes in.

"Exactly like Footloose. Is it still the greatest movie in history?" Quill questions.

"It never was," Peter Parker says.

"Don't encourage this, all right?" Tony says in annoyance.

"Okay." Peter Parker says in agreeance.

"We're getting no help from Flash Gordon here," Tony replies.

"Flash Gordon? By the way, that's a compliment. Don't forget, I'm half-human. So that 50% of me that's stupid, that's 100% you," Peter Quill remarks.

"Your math is blowing my mind," Tony says sarcastically.

"Excuse me," Matis interrupts, "But does your friend often do that?" Mantis asks gesturing towards Doctor Strange. He was Levitating, surrounded by the Time Stone's energy.

Tony, Drax, Mantis, and the two Peters noticed Stephen levitating and surrounded by the Time Stone's energy.

"Do we win?" An unfamiliar voice plays through his head, "Tony just asked that same question, Please don't hold up a finger acting like I know what it means,"

"You can't save him, Sarah. In order to win, Tony, Must, be the one to sacrifice himself,"

Doctor Strange turns his eyes to the battle field, Heroes fighting left and right, some he has never seen before.

"Strange, we all right?" Tony questions heading over to him.

Tony catches him, "You're back. You're all right," Iron-man says,

"Hi,"

"Hey, what was that?" Spider-man asks.

"I went forward in time to view alternate futures. To see all the possible outcomes of the coming conflict," Doctor Strange reveals.

"How many did you see?" Quil asks.

"Fourteen million, six hundred and five," Doctor Strange answers.

"How many did we win?" Iron-man questions.

Stephen was silent for a moment before putting on a serious look on his face.

"One,"
