"Fire!" Nebula made her decision and exclaimed through gritted teeth.

Under Jarvis' control, instantly, every Kree warship, including the one they were currently in, launched countless weapons at the Chitauri fleet.

Thick red laser beams were the first to make contact with the enemy, as endless missiles soared through black space.

Each ship had a few laser cannons attached to them, especially the Flagship which had eight altogether.

One red beam targeted each ship, while the remaining focused on the giant command ship.

While everyone was watching and waiting for the missiles to hit their designated targets, Peter turned to see Nebula staring out of the window, observing the result of her command with bated breaths.

"..." Her eyes were slightly bloodshot, as she gripped her hands into tight fists, staring out of the window in silence.

*Boom...*

She watched as the first of many missiles hit its target, blowing a hole in one of the Chitauri warships.

Nebula's breathing sped up, as one after another, her father's ships were struck by the highly explosive Kree missiles.

Never before has she rebelled against Thanos, the man that adopted her, though the idea was always in the back of her head. After every torturous cybernetic surgery, the thoughts of rebellion would grow stronger and stronger.

Of course, one very crucial thing kept these thoughts at bay.

Her father is one of the strongest beings in the known universe. How could she fight against someone that could kill her with a flick of his finger?

Not to mention the fact that nobody would join her cause.

Thanos' subordinates are known to be very loyal, as they're either true believers in his cause or know the consequences of such actions.

"..." Just as Peter was going to try and comfort her, Jarvis talks through the speakers of the ship.

"Incoming message from Chitauri Command ship... Translating." He says as he freezes for a moment before speaking again. "Traitorous Kree scum! Thanos has been informed of your betrayal! There will be nowhere for you to hide, Ronan..."

Silence fills the ship as the message continues to badmouth both Ronan and the Kree race as a whole, though nobody here was a Kree, so the insults didn't really land as the Chitauri expected.

When the message finally ended, Peter spoke up.

"I guess, they know they're not surviving so they wanted to make their grievances known." Peter says with a shrug.

"Too bad Ronan isn't alive. I'm sure his reaction to that message would have been delightful." Nebula says spitefully.

"I just betrayed my father, who happens to be the strongest person in the universe." Nebula fires back in a sharp sarcastic tone. "I'm sorry that it slipped my mind."

Fury merely clicked his tongue and turned his attention back to the Chitauri fleet.

"Concentrating fire on the enemy Command ship..." Jarvis calls over the speakers.

Immediately, every beam and missile fired from the Kree fleet changed trajectory. Each of them headed straight toward the back of the largest Chitauri ship.

The Chitauri seemed to notice this, as they tried to maneuver their ships to form the shield once again, but sadly, it was too late for them.

First to hit were the laser beams, which purposefully aimed at the engines and thrusters behind the command ship, forcibly stopping the ship in its tracks.

As the ship was stranded in space, the missiles rained down onto key positions, blowing piece after piece of the ship's hull off into space.

Soon enough, the thick red laser, which was tearing through the command ship, seemed to find a weak spot in the engine.

*Boom!*

In an instant, the back half of the enemy ship exploded in a bright purple light. Debris flew everywhere as the remaining missiles hit the destroyed ship, decimating the front half next.

...

Suddenly, every Chitauri ship shut down as Nebula said it would. Drifting in space without a command to follow from their hive mind.

"As far as first space battles go, I'd call that a resounding success!" Tony exclaims as he stared at the surviving Chitauri ships greedily.

Of course, the debris from the destroyed ships would come in handy too, though a complete ship was easier to study.

"Okay, Erik can you handle the scraps?" Peter turns and asks.

"I think he'll need a minute..." Charles says as Peter caught sight of Magneto, who was collapsed on the floor, breathing heavily.

His nose and ears showed signs of bleeding, which certainly showed how hard Erik was pushing himself.

"Just give me a minute." Erik says with a huff as he wiped the blood from his nose. "Actually, maybe an hour would be best..."

"..." looking at the floating debris, which was falling down to the planet, Peter wasn't sure what to do. 'I could open a portal to collect some, but I would only be able to get a small amount...'

Thinking for a moment, Peter gave up as he watched a small fraction of the Chitauri ship scraps disappear into Earth's atmosphere.

'Is this the universe's way of making sure the Vulture is born?' Peter thought as he remembered his classmate's father. 'Whatever, I'll just keep an eye on her family. Maybe I can offer her father a job. After all, using alien scrap to invent Villain level technology is pretty impressive.'

Though, what worried him the most was the people he didn't know, who would also come into contact with the Chitauri debris.

'Will there be some new villains and heroes because of this?'
