Chapter 98:
Back to earlier that day: Third POV; Space
The Q-ship was a massive spaceship used by Thanos and the Black Order. These ring-shaped vessels were stored inside the even larger Spaceship that ambushed Thor's Alien ship and were deployed during the first invasions piloted by Ebony Maw.
Finding himself to be unable to take the time stone from Dr. Strange. Maw beamed himself and an unconscious Strange to the Q-Ship, where Maw began torturing Strange for possession of the Eye.
Concurrently, two other members of the Black order, Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight used a different Q ship. Their mission was to get the other infinity stone from Vision, the mind stone.
Currently, Tony and Peter are inside the Q ship to rescue Dr. Strange from Ebony Maw. The two created a plan to get Ebony Maw out of equation and take Dr. Strange to go back to Earth to get help.
The plan was great and the cooperation of both of them can be said to be impeccable. A little distraction from torturing Dr. Strange, Ebony Maw didn't realise that the two followed him and boarded the Q ship and waiting to take him out.
A small fight broke out, Ebony Maw grab what is closest to him and tried to fight back. Tony was ready for this and decided to continue the plan, blowing up the side of Q ship.
Ebony Maw, along with Dr. Strange got sucked out from the Q ship but Spider man to the rescue webbed Dr. Strange and pull him in back to the Q ship, the small mistake was Peter missed several times and the webbings also got sucked out.
He dove to get nearer to Dr. Strange to hit the target precisely at last. Four retractable spider limbs appeared on Iron Spiderman's back and assisted Peter on pulling Dr. Strange.
Tony iced the hole of the Q ship immediately to avoid getting sucked out.
The three sighed in relief, the plan was successful, Dr. Strange met the Peter Parker and introduced each other.
Peter being himself as young super hero misunderstood Dr. Strange's name, but Dr. Strange have no time to entertain Peter on his antics so he turned to Tony and had a talk.
" We must turn this ship back now to Earth, the Earth is now on danger and many more will continue to invade" Dr. Strange talked while finding something inside his robe.
Suddenly, a red coat flew on Dr.Strange's way and use its corner to show something. Dr. Strange looked at the red coat and accepted the ring.
Tony " Yeah, I know and I should study first how to control this spaceship. There seems to be no bio scanners, not too complicated procedure to control this. The problem id how to turn this thing."
Tony also wants to go back but first time flying an spaceship also need time to figure things out.
Tony argued with Dr. Strange about the stone and how to protect it but Dr. Strange argued back as he is the keeper of the Eye of Agamoto and no one else is more capable protecting the stone than him.
Tony replied that Dr. Strange got kidnapped and needed saving him from Ebony Maw.
While the two were talking Peter is bored so he go around inside the ship to look for anything. He heard clacking sounds and he look from where the sounds come from.
Suddenly his Spider sense moved his body, a hole was blasted from the outside as someone flew inside.
Ebony Maw. Peter got startled and shouted to Tony and Dr. Strange. Ebony Maw attack Spider man immediately after he saw him. Using his telekinetic abilities, the ship are narrow and tunnels full of metals can be controlled. Peter fought for dozen of seconds but got easily subdued due to small space and got blown to the wall.
Ebony May had to used the spider webs Peter shot to cling to the Spaceship then opening a hole for him to get in.
Ebony Maw use metals and iron bars to use as spears but the retractable spider limbs protected Peter from certain death.
Tony and Dr. Strange cam to his rescue. Tony used his nanotechnology weapons to fire at Ebony Maw, Dr. Strange use spells to fight back Ebony Maw's telekinesis.
The small spaces of the Q ship proved to be Ebony Maw's domain, anything on the ship is his personal weapon, no matter how the two fought back, in a matter of time they will be defeated.
Unless Tony chose to blow another hole through the Q ship, but that will prove to be very dangerous since Peter is alone and tied by metal bars.
They cannot risk using large amounts of firepower or spells and risk dying in space specially Peter who is immobilised.
Ebony Maw also covered the hole where he got in as outside of the space will kill them in a matter of minutes.
Dr. Strange used his talent and prowess as sorcery supreme, spells bombarded Ebony Maw and they are all on the verge of getting in the mirror world.
Ebony Maw used large metal bars as shield and crumpled the whole area except his position.
Peter is stuck on the extremity with the Iron spider suit protecting him from the weights.
Iron man is also stuck, Dr. Strange had to get him out and they both find Peter's location, Ebony Maw is gone.
Before he left, damaging the controls was a priority in order to prevent them piloting back to Earth.
Dr. Strange almost had him, he also prioritise taking or destroying most technology inside Ebony Maw's clothes. He still remembered he has a way to self destruct the ship, and then injured Ebony Maw severely on the last bout.
Ebony Maw chose to flee as Three superpowers is not that easy to defeat, he already contacted Thanos and the Black order and the route of the Q ship will automatically turn to Titan planet where they will meet Thanos and present the stones.
Now that Ebony Maw failed to get the time stone but he planned the second most important thing, send the time stone with the timekeeper to Thanos and let him get it himself.
Ebony Maw had nothing on him except communicator to contact the rest of the Black Orders.
He boarded the pod to get out of the Q ship and waited for the other Q ship to get him.
Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight controlled the Q ship and get Ebony Maw aboard.
Corvus " You failed!"
" I sent the time stone to the location." Ebony Maw stared at Corvus and replied.
Proxima got in between the two and declared " The last stone is on Earth, the mind stone will be our priority from now on, we must not fail no matter what."
The Q ship turned to Earth's location and they get ready to take the last infinity stone.
