The new Guardians of the Galaxy
"My name is Peter Jason Quill , and for the last 5 years I have been known as the legendary outlaw called Star-lord. You may have heard of me , I mean who hasn't , hello im the guy who single handedly saved the galaxy multiple times , well , kinda single handedly. I have my family , my true love Gamora , the most deadly assassin in the entire universe. Drax , hes the muscle , the guy who never backs out of a fight . Now I think about it thats kind of a bad thing actually , ah who cares moving on. Rocket , yes he is a talking raccoon and yes he is the smartest guy I know , a pain in the ass but what racoon isnt , this guy can make almost anything , except a good latte , he … he doesn't know what a latte is. Mantis , the ..uh...well..she is like our mascot , cheers us on and loves helping us out. Who am I missing oh AH ….YES...groot...hes a tree...that talks... ..3 words...which was annoying at first but you get used to it. We have been guarding the galaxy for 5 years now took down Ronan the accuser , defeated Hala , insulted Modok and the most important part , we ...killed...Thanos...well...kind of...we thought we had , the son of a bitch survived , wrecked my ship killed my crew and destroyed my favourite mix-tape . Woah ...this..this just got dark actually...i mean...im alone ...in space...about to die...not exactly any way of brightening the situation . Well im dying but my ship is heading to earth so , at least il be buried on my home world …..so..uh..well...so...
a few hours earlier on the planet Tarnax IV (throne world of the skrulls) in the broken remains of an ancient temple , After a battle in space which left rocket weaponless and peter hopeless , there ship broken and the team forced down to the planets surface.
"AAAARRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH" Thanos roared as he stood in front of the guardians , rocket looked at peter "i think you managed to piss him off ….what was the next part of your master plan?". Peter stood still aiming his two blasters at Thanos shivering in fear , "survive" he gulped as he slowly clicked his earpiece , activating his specialised helmet , the red lenses glowing. Drax was breathing heavily , holding his personal blades tightly ready to vanquish his enemy. Gamora stood was standing next to quill , she looked at him then took her sword out "i told you , that stone wasn't powerful it was just another ordinary pebble , we got conned...again". Peter looked at her "you want to do this now?...i mean the last time I threw a magic rock at him we all thought he died".gamora shook her head "your an idiot". Thanos laughed "daughter ...is this what you have chosen ….life with these...buffoons …you come here to ..to kill me?..and all you can through is a rock ...allow me to throw one of my own". Thanos then punched a broken wall , then picked up a large chunk of the wall and threw it at star lord. Gamora and rocket jumped out of the way as quill stood still not reacting in time.
Gamora watched as Quill got knocked back into a wall , a tonne of rubble then fell on Peter , Gamora then locked eyes on thanos and ran towards him , jumping into the air ready to swing her sword down on him. Thanos grabbed the sword and snapped it like a twig then threw gamora at a wall. "TTHHAANNOOSS!" drax shouted as he ran towards him , he took a different approach and slid across the ground and sliced at thanos leg. It did not effect thanos at all , only enraged him further , thanos was quick to grab drax and pin him against a wall , he looked drax in the eyes "you...i know you ...what makes you think you can beat me...is revenge to strong in your mind?". Drax dropped his knifes and held onto thanos arm trying to break free, "...i ..will have..my..revenge...for Hovat ...for Kamaria!". Thanos shook his head , "i will remember you ..for your determination...shame that is all". He then slammed drax into the wall multiple times knocking Drax unconscious , then he dropped him to the floor.
Thanos looked around then walked over to a statue holding a large sword , he pulled the sword off the statue then made his way to Drax. Peter managed to crawl out of the rubble he was left in , he looked up to see Thanos staring down at Drax , he looked around to see Gamora wounded in the corner , looked the other way to see Groot and Rocket standing , hopeless . Peter coughed then stood up "HEY!". Thanos looked at him , peter deactivated his helmet and holstered his blasters. "don't...please...you...don't have to..kill..everything...you..don't have to be like this". Rocket looked at peter "quill...what are you doing?". Peter slowly walked over and stood in-between Thanos and Drax "you won...the battle...defeat doesn't have to mean killed". Thanos smiled "you fail to understand , im not stupid...if I don't deal with you pests now...you will just return ...and try and try again...i will give you a chance...stand aside...and wait your turn". Peter crossed his head "no...you...you don't ...you don't have to kill". Thanos looked at him , he slowly lifted the sword with his right hand. "please" peter pleaded. Thanos looked angry. "father...dont"gamora spoke from the corner , slowly standing up. Thanos looked at her , he grabbed peter by the neck and lifted him up. "im sorry little one...but I wont be stopped by you ...not by anyone". Then in one swift move he swung the sword stabbing Drax in the chest , pushing the sword down. "NNNNOOOO!" Gamora shouted as she got her knife out and started running towards Thanos , peter kicked Thanos in the chin then activated his rocket powered boots and broke from Thanos grasp. Gamora jumped up and landed on Thanos back then went to stab him only for Thanos to grab her then throw her across the room.
Rocket ran over to peter " ..we need to get outta here...we aint stopping him". Peter sat up and looked at him , then looked at Thanos who was pulling the sword out of drax's corpse. Peter nodded "what happened to that Thanos killing weapon you have been droning on about for months ?". rocket sighed "i lied...i..i had too much faith ...you would...you know..have a good plan...i..do have one idea...but..you wont like it". Peter looked confused as rocket pulled out a small grenade , rocket looked at peter with sad eyes "it will wound him...at the very least...maybe...maybe someone could finish what we started". Peter shook his head " not ..not happening". He stood up and looked at Thanos who was walking over to Gamora "we just..we...we can...crap". Rocket took a aero-rig out "maybe you could finish the job Pete". Peter looked at him "no...no rocket" Groot then picked peter up as rocket jumped onto his arm and attached the aero-rig to his back "get help...or just run..i wouldn't blame ya". Peter struggled to break free from Groot "no no if we die we die together im not..im not leaving you!". Rocket jumped off and looked at Thanos who was holding Gamora up by the throat. "rocket...please" peter cried as tears fell from his eyes. Groot activated peters helmet then spoke "I...am...groot" , he then turned the aero-rig on and let go of peter. Peter then flew up crashing through the ceiling flying up into the atmosphere , he looked down , his lenses zooming in on the temple , the last thing he saw was the temple exploding.
"no", peter closed his eyes as he flew up into space , he then crashed into the back of the broken down Milano drifting in space. He deactivated his aero-rig and closed the back door. He stood still deactivating his helmet looking around his ship , he had failed his team. He walked to the pilots seat in shame , as he sat he felt a sharp pain in his stomach , he looked down to see a sharp shard had impaled him from being thrown into the temple wall. "well...shit". He checked the fuel left on the ship , only enough for one trip , where else but earth.
"so...so..whoever finds me...finds..this tape...i have a request...there's a man...i..i never learned his name...hes my grandfather ...he lives in Missouri last time I saw him...years and years ago...tell him im sorry I never visited him...sorry I..i let him down...i .i let everyone down …...Thanos..has to be stopped...stop...stop him...quill out".
Star-lord looked out the front window and smiled , the first time in a long time he saw Earth. The milano came crashing down and eventually hit the dirt in a small field near a small town in south America.
