Guardians of the galaxy: A new guardian!- Chapter 1

*Inara's POV*

As I walked across the streets of xandar with Omega by my side the only thing I could think of was home.

Big Green trees covered in vines the mossy forest floor and Omega tackling me down and play-fighting. She was still a cub in this memory she was in most of them, all the memories of her as a full-grown tiger are bitter, as Omega's mother and mine, even thogh its not biological, got killed by hunters, I only just got Omega out in time.

I was dumped into the forest by my biological parents because I'm a mutant. With the power to talk to and control all animals (although I would never control Omega or our mother) I might have been a bit too much to handle. But Omega's mother, Sani, brought me with her and looked after me as she could see I didn't use my powers in spitefulness but just to communicate and look after animals, Well that was untill they killed her . Many people would love a tiger pelt for their wall but I've looked after Omega with my life.

As I was saying me and Omega were walking down the streets of xandar, looking for a suitable spaceship to steal. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that but me and Omega are highway thieves if you like, who steal on the road to keep themselves going. But back to what was happening, we had just spotted the perfect ship to steal, it was even left unlocked, so as we walked in the ship I heard Omega growl "Be careful" and I turned and gave her a nod Alright, you too.

We searched the ship first finding plenty of supplies and weaponry. I called out to Omega "There's no one here just weopons and supplies!" I heard a low growl in return "Same here! but wait I hear someone coming in! Hide!" I close my eyes then quickly fit myself into one of the small trunks of weapons. I picked up two guns and pressed my ear to the wall trying to hear what was going on.

"I am Groot!" I hear being said in a deep powerful voice and then a smaller more high pitched voice says "Groot I'm pretty sure there's no one here" Dammit I think They know we're here. Another voice, a female one tones in "Wait Rocket, I can sense it too. Search the ship!" I hear more muffled voices but I'm just hoping that they don't find me and Omega.

As if I got anything I wanted for once as I hear a male voice say "Why the hell is there a Tiger here?" and this voice is close I hear Omega growl some foul words at the what I assume is a man as I stand up pushing open the weapons box two guns in my hand aimed and ready to fire.

"Omega!" I call and she looks up at me and so do the others. I'm utterly shocked standing before me is:

¤A talking racoon

¤A talking tree person

¤A green skinned woman with long black hair

¤A green skinned man with loads of red marks on his skin

¤And what suprised me the most a man. Just a normal man with short brown hair wearing a red coat. He was a human too.

"Get away from the tiger or I will shoot!" I shout as they continue to stare at me I look to omega and form a growl in my throat saying "Come here now!" She bows her head submissively and pushes her way out of the still gawking people.

I'm too busy watching Omega that I don't notice the giant roots coming at me grabbing my hands and feets. "I am Groot!" I hear him say as the guns drop out of my hands the woman walks towards me a sword in her hands as I let out a growl "Get her Omega!" She continues to walk forward as I hear the man shout "Watch out Gamora!" but its too late she's already down Omega on top of her baring her teeth. I look around the room and my eyes land on the racoon. "Racoon get this tree off of me!" I shout and he walks forward and shoots the branches of my hands and feet. "Rocket!" I hear the man shout but I'm too busy. I kick the green skinned man in the face knocking him out and then grab the man putting the gun to his head.

"Let me and Omega go and the man lives" I say to the woman, tree who I assume is Groot and The raccoon who is called Rocket. He's looking around strangely like he doesn't know how he got there I smile at them showing all my teeth.

"No" I hear the man say "Because we are the Guardians of the galaxy!" and suddenly I feel a prick in my arm as I fall passing out into the man's arms.
