Bruce Banner woke up in a dazed and confused state lying in a pile of rubble from where he had fallen through the roof above. Doctor Stephen Strange and Tony Stark descended a nearby staircase and approached him to see if he was okay. Banner, still disoriented, was mumbling something about Thanos.
There was a commotion outside the front door of the Sanctum as dozens of people were running past. The three walked outside and saw the crowd hurrying in one direction. Cars were parked and abandoned in the streets and a loud rumbling noise could be heard overhead. The group reached the corner and could see what everyone was running from. A couple of large creatures, obviously not from Earth, were standing in the street.
"Hear me, and rejoice. You are about to die at the hand of the children of Thanos. Be thankful that your meaningless lives are now contributed to the balance..."
"I'm sorry, Earth is closed today. You better pack it up and get out of here," Stark responded.
Turning to Strange the creature said: "Stonekeeper, does this chattering animal speak for you?"
"Certainly not," Strange responded. "I speak for myself. And you're trespassing in this city and on this planet."
"He means get lost, Squidward."
Turning toward Cull Obsidian, Ebony Maw whispered "He exhausts me. Bring me the stone."
Cull Obsidian charged forward at them swinging a massive hammer. Stark suited up and focused a unibeam blast at the charging titan which blasted him backward. Doctor Strange soared into the air and tangled with Ebony Maw. Maw contorted a nearby heap of concrete and rebar and wrapped it around Strange, pinning him to the brick wall of a nearby high rise. Stark flew over and knocked Ebony Maw through the wall.
On the street below, Cull Obsidian stood up and shook himself off. Seeing the action above him, he threw his jagged hammer, and watched as it soared through the air and pierce Doctor Strange's torso. Strange shuddered in pain.
"Tony" he said. Calling Stark over to him. "I've seen 14,000,605 outcomes for the coming conflict."
Stark replied "How many did we win?"
"One."
Stark zoomed down to the ground and re-engaged Cull Obsidian. Ebony Maw re-emerged from the smashed building behind Doctor Strange and joined his brother against Ironman. Ebony Maw picked up a nearby car and contorted and twisted it around Ironman. Cull Obsidian raised his hammer over head and was about to smash it into Stark.
"Stop!" Strange called from above. "Spare his life and I'll give you the stone."
Ebony Maw sneered and soared back up to him. Strange raised his hand as much as he could and the Time Stone appeared out of thin air.
"No!" Stark yelled. Strange looked him straight in the face and raised one finger and then he surrendered the stone.
