Chapter 2
A/n: Yay Chapter two is up!^^
No one's POV
After all five have been captured and taken to Nova Headquarters, Dey presents each of them to Saal.
"Gamora. Surgically modified and trained as a living weapon. The adopted daughter of the Mad Titan, Thanos. Recently, Thanos lent her and her sister Nebula out to Ronan, which leads us to believe that Thanos and Ronan are working together."
"Lucy subject 87P02 another illegal genetic and cybernetic experiment, She also escaped tons of prisons in her past."
"Subject 89P13. Calls itself Rocket. The result of illegal genetic and cybernetic experiments on a lower life form."
"So that's why you knew my name, god I'm so dumb." I say out loud making Rocket laugh.
"Shut up!" Saal shouted I only growled. "Let's continue."
"What the hell?" Saal questions.
"They call it Groot. A humanoid plant that's been traveling recently as 89P13's personal house plant slash muscle." Dey explains to Saal.
"Peter Jason Quill, from Terra. Raised from youth by a band of mercenaries called the Ravagers, led by Yondu Udonta. He's also friends with 87P02." Quill winds up his middle finger and flips the bird at them. "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know how this machine worked." Peter says trying to sound innocent.
Denarian Saal looked at the five of the prisoners. "What a bunch of a-holes." Dey smiles. "Transport all five to the Kyln."
Lucy's POV
As the five of us are taken to The Kyln, High Security Prison.
"I guess most of Nova Corps wanna uphold the laws, but these ones here, they're corrupt and cruel. But, hey, that's not my problem. I ain't gonna be here long. I've escaped 22 prisons, this one's no different. You're lucky the broad showed up, because otherwise, me and Groot would be collecting that bounty right now, and you'd be getting drawn and quartered by Yondu and those Ravagers." Rocket rambled on.
I looked behind me slightly with a small glare. "You talk to much." I growled a bit.
Rocket glared a bit. "Nice, to see you too Lucy, after that fight I thought you'd be afraid to be near me."
I rolled my eyes at that information. Yeah I was afraid, not anymore not now.
"I've had a lot of folks try to kill me over the years. I ain't about to be brought down by a tree and a male talking raccoon. I already have a talking friend that's a raccoon." Peter says to Rocket.
"Hold!"
"What's a raccoon?" Rocket asks I rolled my eyes.
"What's a raccoon?" It's what you are, stupid, even Lucy knows what she is." Peter says I laughed at that.
Rocket looks at the my back basically looking ahead. "Ain't no thing like Lucy and I, except us." Rocket says as we are being led to our cell.
"So, this orb has a real shiny blue suitcase, Ark of the Covenant, Maltese Falcon sort of vibe. What is it?" Peter asked.
"I am Groot." (An infinity stone) Groot tries to say to Peter but no one seemed to understand giving tree.
"So what? What's the Orb?" Quill ignores Groot.
"I have no words for an honorless thief." She exclaimed, I just laughed from behind her.
"Sure princess, whatever you say." I stated.
"Pretty high and mighty coming from the lackey of a genocidal maniac." Rocket says catching Gamora's attention Gamora looks at Rocket. "Yeah, I know who you are. Anyone who's anyone knows who you are. Hell even Lucy knows you."
"I do my research." I stated.
"Yeah, we know who you are." Peter says then looks to Groot. "Who is she?"
"I am Groot." (Daughter of Thanos) Groot tries to tell Peter yet again.
"Yeah, you said that." Peter says clearly not understanding him and I'm not helping him understand he can learn his language.
"I wasn't retrieving the orb for Ronan, I was betraying him. I had an agreement to sell it to a third party." Gamora explains.
"I am Groot." (Ok?) (I only translate what I think I know ok)
"Well, that's just as fascinating as the first 89 times you told that." Peter says annoyed. "What is wrong with Giving Tree, here?"
"Well, he don't know talking good like me and you. So his vocabulistics is limited to "I" and "am" and "Groot". Exclusively in that order." Rocket explained to dumbass Quill.
"I tell you what, that's gonna wear real thin, real fast." Peter then sees a Prison Guard with his Walkman headphones. "Hey. Put that away." he walks inside the room towards the Guard as the door closes. "Hey! Listen to me you big blue bastard, take those headphones off, that's mine. Those belong to impound, that tape and that player is mine!" the guard stuns Peter with a stun baton. "Hooked on a Feeling, Blue Swede, 1973, that song belongs to me!" Peter says to blueberry the guard stuns him again, as Hooked on a Feeling starts playing, the guards stuns Peter over and over again.
I watched as he moves in pain. "Ouch."
_____________
Peter puts on his yellow jail shirt while Rocket, Gamora, and I, walked into the room. Peter watched me closely as I grabbed my jail shirt, Peter noticed what appeared to be mental implants in my back. Peter looked at them before turning his head away, Rocket and I followed Peter as I got a sleeping bag shoved into my arms. "Oof." I followed Peter into the main part of The Klyn.
Peter looked around the room until something was shoved into his face. Peter looked surprised before turning in the direction of where it came from.
A line of inmates were standing on a high level as they shouted at Gamora.
"You first! You first!"
"Murderer!"
"Coming for you first Gamora!"
"You're dead!" The inmates shouted.
"You're scum! You're scum!" Other inmates shouted.
"Like I said. She's got a rep. A lot of prisoners here have lost their families to Ronan and his goons. She'll last a day tops" Rocket said.
"The guards will protect her right?" Peter asked.
"They're here to stop us from getting out. They don't care what we do to each other inside" I say.
"Whatever nightmares the future holds, are dreams compared to what's behind me" Gamora said.
I then bumped into a large leg and looked up to see a blue man starring down at me. "Check out the new meat" Blueberry said. He put a hand on my furry cheek. "I'm gonna slather you up in Gunavian jelly" I shivered that touch got on Rockets nerve, Blueberry chuckled. "And go to town..."
Before blue man could finish Groot put two of his branches up his nose and lifted him into the air.
The blueberry guy screamed as Groot lifted him up with two of his branches. "Let's make something clear. This one here is our booty! You wanna get to him, you go through us!" Rocket said. "Or, more accurately, we go through you!"
Rocket walked behind me and placed a hand on my shoulder. "You alright?" He asked I nodded, I then look back to Groot.
Groot threw the giant onto the ground where he began to sob. I laughed at the man that I'm calling a baby for now on.
"I'm with them" Peter said before following you, Rocket and Groot. "No cell's gonna protect you for long!" A prisoner shouted as Gamora walked by them. Gamora closed her cell door and tried to block out the voices of the other prisoners.
_____________
"Take her down to the showers. It'll be easier to clean up the blood down there" A prisoner said. Two other prisoners were holding back Gamora as another inmate held a knife to her neck.
Gamora grunted as she tried to break free from their grip but to no avail. Peter heard Gamora as he lifted up his head and saw the prisoner leading the others. Peter took an arm of another prisoner off his stomach and stood up as he went to follow them. You stirred a bit in your sleep before waking up. "Quill what are you doing?" Rocket asked sleepily he looks hot like that, I snickered a little after thinking about that. Rocket heard my snicker and looks towards me. "What you laughing about?"
"Uhh about how you look sexy when your sleepy." I chuckle he rolled his eyes then grinned a little before focusing at what's happening ahead of us.
I watched as Peter left the room and followed the other prisoners. I ran up to the gate. "Quill!" Rocket yelled but it was more of a whisper kind of yell.
One of the inmates shoved Gamora against the wall. "Gamora, consider this a death sentence. For your crimes against the Galaxy!" He said.
"You dare?" Asked a voice. The inmates turn their attention to who the voice belonged to. A giant muscular man (aka Drax), stood behind them. "You know who I am, yes?" He asked.
"You're Drax. The Destroyer?" one of the inmates asked. Rocket and I caught up to Quill. "Quill!" Rocket whispered. I stood a bit behind Rocket.
"And you know why they call me this" Drax said.
"You slayed dozens of Ronan's minions" another prisoner said.
"Ronan murdered my wife, Ovette. And my daughter Camaria. He slaughtered them where they stood. And he laughed!" Drax yelled.
"Quill" Rocket whispered, trying to get his attention.
"Her life, is not yours to take. He killed my family. I shall kill one of his in return" he said as he looked at Gamora.
"Of course Drax. Here" one of the prisoners said as he handed Drax a knife.
Gamora then grabbed one of the prisoners arms and flung him to the ground and then kicking another one. Gamora then held her knife in front of Drax and the only prisoner who was still standing.
"Quill" Rocket whispered again Peter smacked his paw away.
"I'm no family to Ronan or Thanos" Gamora said as she held two weapons to their throats. Gamora stood still and dropped them to the floor. "I'm your only hope of stopping him" Gamora said.
Drax screamed and shoved Gamora into the wall. "Woman, your words mean nothing to me!" Drax yelled.
Peter came out from his hiding spot. "Hey! Hey, hey, hey! Hey!" He shouted.
"Oh crap" Both Rocket and I say as We face palmed.
"You know, if killing Ronan is truly your sole purpose I don't think that this is the best way to go about it" Peter said.
"Are you not the man this wench attempted to kill?" Drax asked looking back at Peter.
"Well I mean she's hardly the first woman to try to do that to me" Peter said. Peter chuckled before lifting his shirt and showing a scar. "Look, this is from a smoking hot Rajak girl. Stabbed me with a fork. Didn't like me skipping out on her at sunrise" Peter then lifted his collar and showed him another scar on his neck. "I got, right here, a Kree girl tried to rip out my thorax. She caught me with the skinny little A'askavariian who worked in Nova Records. I was trying to get information. You ever seen an A'askavariian? They have tentacles and needles for teeth. If you think I'm seriously interested in that, then..." Peter stopped when Drax sent him a death glare. "You don't care. But here's the point. She betrayed Ronan. He's coming for her. And when he does that's when you..." Peter moved one of his fingers across his throat as a way of saying "kill"
"why would I put my finger on his throat?" Drax asked.
"What?" Peter asked. "Oh no, it's a symbol. This is a symbol for you slicing his throat" Peter said as he moved one of his fingers across his throat again.
"I would not slice his throat. I would cut his head clean off" Drax said.
"It's a general expression for you killing somebody. You've heard of this. You've seen this right?" Peter asked the other prisoner. "You know what that is?" Peter asked a prisoner. The prisoner nodded.
"Yeah. Yeah" the prisoner said.
"Everyone knows" Peter said.
"No. No" the prisoner shook his head.
"What I'm saying is, you want to keep her alive. Don't do his work for him" Peter said. Drax looked over at Gamora before letting her go and she fell to the ground coughing.
"I like your knife. I'm keeping it" Drax said as he walked away. The prisoner frowned.
"That was my favorite knife" he said.
_____________
"Listen! I could care less wether you live or wether you die!" Peter argued. Gamora turned around to face him.
"Then why stop the big guy?" She asked.
"Simple. You know where to sell my orb" Peter said.
"How are we gonna sell it when we and it are still here?" Gamora asked.
Peter looked at Rocket. "My friend Rocket here has escaped 22 prisons" Peter said.
Rocket crossed his arms. "Oh we're getting out. Then we're heading straight to Yondu to retrieve your bounty" He said as he pointed at Peter.
"How much was your buyer willing to pay you for my orb?" Peter asked.
"Four billion units" Gamora said.
"Woah!" I say now excited.
"What?!" Rocket had a shocked face that turned excited.
"Holy shit!" Peter says shocked at the high number.
"That orb is my opportunity to get away from Thanos and Ronan. If you free us, I'll lead you to the buyer directly and split the profit between the five of us" Gamora said.
"I am Groot" (Hey!) Groot said.
"Six of us. Asleep for the danger and awake for the money as per frickin usual" Rocket says to Groot.
______________
We where getting our lunch and is heading to a table to discuss our escape plan.
"If we're gonna get out of here we're gonna need to get into that watchtower. And to do that we're gonna need a few things. The guards wear security bands to control their ins and outs. I need one" Rocket said.
"Leave it to me" Gamora said.
"That dude there. I need his prosthetic leg" Rocket says as he held back laughter. I did the same.
"His leg?" Peter questioned.
"Yeah. God knows he don't need the rest of him. He's useless" I laughed. Rocket laughed with me.
"All right" Peter said.
"And finally, on the wall back there is a black panel. Blinky yellow light. Do you see it?" Rocket asked.
Peter and I looked at the panel and saw the small yellow light. "Yeah" he said.
"There's a quarnyx battery behind it. Purplish box, green wires, to get into the watchtower I definitely need it" Rocket said.
"How are we supposed to do that?" Gamora asked.
"Well supposably these bald bodies find you attractive so maybe you could work out some sort of trade" Rocket says looking at Gamora.
"You must be joking" Gamora said.
"No. I really heard they find you attractive" Rocket said.
"Look, it's 20 feet up in the air and it's in the middle of the most heavily guarded part of the prison. It's impossible to get up there without being seen" Peter said.
"We got one plan, and that plan requires a frickin quarnyx battery so FIGURE IT OUT!" I speak with a shout. Rocket looks at me with a thankful look.
"Thanks Lucy, now." Rocket looks back to Peter. "Can we get back to it? Thanks?" Rocket asked.
"Now this is important. Once the battery is removed everything is gonna slam into emergency mode. Once we have it, we gotta move quickly. So you definitely need to get that last" Rocket said. Suddenly the lights went out and you looked around.
I looked behind me to see Groot who had been listening the whole time and held the battery with one of his hands.
"Or we can just get it first and improvise" Rocket says frustrated.
"I'll get the armband" Gamora said.
"Leg" Peter said.
Rocket growled slightly and covered his face with both of his paws, I turned to him and pat his shoulder. "Hey we always get out, and I bet we'll make it through this one." I say making him smile.
"Thanks Lucy." Rocket smiled. "I'm glad we ran into each other it's been ages." Rocket says smiling.
"I know and I'm sorry I forgot about you." I apologized.
"It's fine, now let's get our asses to the watch tower." He says.
Tiny spaceships soon flew through The Klyn had surrounded Groot. "Prisoner, drop the device immediately and retreat to your cell or we will open fire" one of the guards said.
"I AM GROOT!" Groot said.
"Fire" the guard said. The guards inside of the spaceships began to shoot at Groot. Groot fought back by smashing the spaceships to the ground with his giant branches.
"All prisoners return to your sleeping areas" another guard said. Rocket and I dodged all of the shots and climbed onto the tree. "You idiot! How are we supposed to fight these things without our stuff?" Rocket asked frustrated.
I hooked my claws onto Groot to hang on. The spaceships continued to shoot at you, Rocket and Groot while Groot tried to protect me and Rocket with his branches. Drax meanwhile was nearby watching the entire thing.
"The animal is in control! Fire on my command!" A guard shouted. Before any of the guards could shoot,
Drax ran forward and knocked each one to the ground. Drax grabbed two of their giant blasters. "Creepy little beasts!" He called. I looked at him. He tossed the blasters in the air and Rocket caught one of them.
"Oh, yeah" Rocket says happily, then went crazy as he shot in each direction.
"Rocket!" Gamora yelled. He looked at her and she tossed him the armband. Rocket dropped the blaster and caught the armband.
"Move to the watchtower!" Rocket ordered.
"We need all available guards in full combat gear..." the guard inside the watchtower turned around to see Rocket, Groot, Peter, Gamora, Drax, and I, standing in the doorway.
The guard raised his hands in the air in fear Rocket walked inside. Gamora shoved him out of the seat and Groot grabbed him with his branches and threw him out of the watchtower. Gamora backed away in shock when she saw Drax next to her.
"Spare me your foul gaze, woman" Drax said.
"Why is this one here?" Gamora asked pointing over to Drax.
"We promised he could stay by your side until he kills your boss" Peter explained.
I looked back to the three. "Yeah Peter always keeps his promises when they're to muscle bound whack jobs who will kill him if I don't." I explained Peter thanked me.
"Here you go" Peter said as he handed Rocket the leg.
"You actually did it?!" I asked shocked then busted out laughing.
"Oh I was just kidding about the leg. I just need these two things" Rocket explained with a snicker.
"What?" Peter asked.
"No, I thought it'd be funny. Wasn't it funny? Oh wait, what did he look like hopping around?" Rocket asked I continued laughing.
"I had to transfer him 30,000 units!" Peter shouted. I then calmed my laughing down Rocket and I now chuckling.
"How are we gonna leave?" Drax asked. One of the spaceships shot through one of the windows.
"He's got a plan!" I shout at them impatient losers.
"You do? Or is that another thing you made up?" Peter asked.
"I have a plan! I have a plan!" Rocket argues with the rest of them.
"Cease your yammering and relive us from this irksome confinement" Drax said.
"Yeah I'll have to agree with the walking thesaurus on that one" Peter said. Drax turned dead serious.
"Do not ever call me a thesaurus" Drax warned Peter giving him a scary look.
"It's just a metaphor, dude" Peter said.
"His people are completely literal. Metaphors are gonna go over his head" I said.
"Nothing goes over my head. My reflexes are too fast. I would catch it" Drax states proudly.
"I am gonna die surrounded by the biggest idiots in the galaxy" Gamora said.
"I agree Gam." I say she smiled down a bit before looking back up.
For someone who almost killed me back on Xander, can be nice when they wanna be. "Those are some big guns" Peter said nervously as he watched the guards point giant guns at the watchtower.
"On my command! Number one!" A guard shouted. A guard shot one of the guns at the watchtower.
"Rodent, we are ready for your plan!" Gamora said.
"Be patient people!" I exclaimed to those impatient bastards.
"Hold on!" Rocket said.
"Number two!" The guard shouted. Another guard shot his gun at the watchtower.
"I recognize these animals. We'd roast them over a flame pit as children. Their flesh was quite delicious" Drax said.
"Disgusting." I shouted in disgust.
"Not helping!" Rocket says angrily looking back.
"Number three!" The guard yelled. Another gun shot was fired at the watchtower.
"All fire on my command! Three! Two! One!" The guard yelled. Before they could react,
Rocket connected two wires together and the guards in the room began to float into the air.
"You turned off the artificial gravity. Everywhere but in here" I said amazed staring out the window then at him.
Rocket then connected some of the mini spaceships to the bottom of the watchtower. And used them to steer the watchtower. "I told you I had a plan" Rocket said proudly at us.
______________
"That was a pretty good plan" Peter said.
"Huh?" Rocket asks in agreement.
Peter ran over to one of the windows in the room. "Yeah! There it is! Get my ship! It's the Milano, the orange and red one over in the corner!" Peter said as he pointed to the ship.
"They crumbled my pants up into a ball that's rude! They folded yours and Lucy's?!" Rocket said. Peter looked through his box of belongings.
"The orb's there let's go!" Gamora said.
"Wait, wait, wait" Peter said.
"What?" Gamora asked.
"That bastard didn't put it back" Peter said.
"Put what back?" Gamora asked.
"Here" Peter said as he handed her his knapsack, Peter looks over to me. "Get them to the ship. I will be right back" he said, I nodded.
"How are you gonna possibly..." Gamora tried to ask but she was cut off.
"Lucy keep the Milano close by. Go!" Peter said. "Go!" He said as he ran off.
Again I nodded and we all ran to the ship after I grabbed my outfits and weapons.
______________
"Well, how's he gonna get to us?" Rocket asked.
"He declined to share that information with me" Gamora said.
"Oh I know how he's getting to us but I ain't telling shit." I laughed making them all groan.
"Well, screw this then! We ain't waiting around for some humie with a death wish. You got the orb right?" Rocket asked. "Yes" Gamora said as she took out Peter's things from his bag. Then she dug through it only to realize it wasn't there.
"If we don't leave now we will be blown to bits!" Rocket said.
"No! We're not leaving without the orb" Gamora said.
Drax looked out the window to see Peter flying towards the ship. "Behold" he said.
I looked out the window with him. Peter climbed through a hole in the ship. Gamora and Drax helped pull him up. "This one shows spirit. He shall make keen ally in the battle against Ronan. Companion, what were you retrieving?" Drax asked.
Peter took out his Walkman and gave it to Drax. Drax looked at Peter in disbelief. "You're an imbecile" he said.
