Cut to Titan, where Thanos arrives, finding only fresh debris from Ebony Maw's ship.
Stephen Strange sits on what may have been plaza steps once. "Oh, yeah, you're much more of a Thanos."
"I take it the Maw is dead. This day extracts a heavy toll. Still, he accomplished his mission." Thanos says.
"You may regret that. He brought you face-to-face with the Master of the Mystic Arts." Strange speaks.
"And where do you think he brought you?" Thanos asks as Star-Lord crouches behind wreckage with his weapon ready, behind Thanos and to his left; Spider-Man and Mystic peek from above and behind Doctor Strange.
"Whatever happens, I love you," Peter says, de-helmeting.
"Always. We're not going to let a crusty grape ruin the world, or us." Kat smiles.
"Always." Peter smiles. The two share a tender kiss, before going back to the matter at hand.
"Let me guess. Your home?" Strange answers.
Thanos smiles reminiscently. "It was. And it was beautiful." Thanos curls his gauntleted fist and activates the Reality Stone to show Strange 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. "Titan was like most planets. Too many mouths, and not enough to go around. And when we faced extinction, I offered a solution."
"Genocide." Strange spat.
"But at random, dispassionate, fair to rich and poor alike. They called me a madman. And what I predicted came to pass." Thanos relaxes his fist; the Stone stops glowing and the illusion fades back into the true state of Titan.
"Congratulations. You're a prophet." Strange sarcastically says.
"I'm a survivor." Thanos retorts.
"Who wants to murder trillions." Strange says.
"With all six stones, I could simply snap my fingers, and they would all cease to exist. I call that... mercy." Thanos mimes snapping his fingers
Strange stands. "And then what?"
"I finally rest... and watch the sunrise on a grateful universe. The hardest choices require the strongest wills." Thanos explains.
Strange summons his Mandalas, entering a fighting pose. "I think... you'll find... our will... equal to yours."
"Ours?" Thanos looks up to a see a chunk of wreckage descending rapidly on him, too rapidly to react- and powered by Iron Man. He is subsequently crushed by it.
Tony Stark flies in. "Piece of cake, Quill."
Quill triggers his mask and follows. "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 Iron Man with them, driving him back through the ruins.
Spider-Man 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.
Kat jumps up, lifting up multiple jacks and throwing them at Thanos, but the Power Stone destroys them almost immediately. Silver energy swirls around Thanos, as Kat lifts him up and begins to slowly destroy his armor, (A/N: Like what Wanda did in Endgame) but Thanos musters up the energy to use the Space Stone to throw her back.
