Chapter 1

Flashback - It starts a little dark but don't worry, this is still a redemption story for Yondu-

Terra Lightwick was walking through her hometown when she was suddenly transported off of Earth and into a ship, or what she thought could be a ship. When her vision cleared, she saw a blue man standing across the room from her which caused her to scream.

"Settle down," he snapped, "I'm Yondu and I need you on my ship for obvious reasons," he admitted with a wink causing Terra to shudder.

"What are you?" she asked, her tone filled with fear.

"Good question, Beautiful," he replied, "I'm an alien. My name is Yondu and I know that's a lot to process but most importantly I'm gonna need you to agree to my terms because we're already too far away from your home for you to go back. Will you fulfill my needs as needed? I haven't found anyone who can do that for me on a regular basis, if you know what I mean," he said, swaggering closer to her.

"Over my dead body," she replied.

Yondu sighed, "I would get a strong willed one. Kraglin, lock her up until she's ready to change her mind."

Another man who looked like a human grabbed her and dragged her down the hall, kicking and screaming, "I'll never be yours!" she screamed through the halls causing Yondu to laugh.

Two weeks passed where Terra existed in her holding cell unwilling to change her stance on his request.

"What's it gonna take, Sweetheart?" he asked, "I don't wanna hurt your pretty little face but if it comes that that then it comes to that," he said as he stood outside her cell.

"I told you that I will sleep with over my dead body," she replied, "I don't know how much more clear I can make it. Why don't you find someone who wants you instead of taking people in the night? I had a life that's gone now," she replied as her lip quivered from the memory of her family she'd never see again.

Yondu had a soft spot for humans ever since Quill so he huffed before walking away before he slipped up in front of her.

Terra refused the food that Kraglin brought to her each day for the most part and after the fourth week locked up, she no longer had the strength to stand.

"Captain," Kraglin said as he walked toward Yondu.

"Yes?" he asked as he turned to look at him.

"She is going to die if you don't let her out of the cell," Kraglin stated, "I know you won't take her home but maybe she could have a role on the ship or something else."

Yondu looked for a moment as if he might punch Kraglin in the face but instead he nodded, "Take me to her."

Kraglin nodded as they walked to her cell together where they found her unconscious on the floor of the cell.

"Open the cell," Yondu instructed to which Kraglin did immediately and Yondu entered the cell and kneeled down to the girl and felt for a pulse. "She's still alive," he said, "I'm taking her to my chambers. Bring a nutrient shake there and then I will offer her choice of a position on the ship. I guess my plan isn't going to work. I'm the last of my kind and I was hoping a regular partner might change that," he admitted, not knowing she could hear him.

"If you told her your true motives and treated her like a person, she might change her mind," Kraglin stated causing Yondu to send a look his way before he scooped Terra into his arms.
