Summary: groot has locked himself in his quarters. The guardians try to find out why ( takes place after Vol. 2)
It was a rather peaceful day in space today for the guardians. It was almost noon and not a single alert has been given. So they were just relaxing for now.
Quill was listening to music, drax was sharpening his bladed, gamora was on turret duty along with mantis, and rocket's been bored.
Rocket: so why isn't there an emergency today
Quill looked at rocket
Peter: well it's all just a coincidence.
Drax: having no bad guys around isn't an emergency. On my home planet, if there were no bad guys to fight a day we called fighting day, we would all have to ban together to fight an army that was coming.
Peter: well, that's a normal thing to do
Mantis: speaking of normal, has anyone seen groot today
Everyone looked to mantis.
Gamora: that's odd, it's not like him to stay in his room
Rocket: I'll go check on him
Rocket climb down to head to groot's quarters. He got there, and he knocked on the door. A moment later, he felt his twigs crawling up on his legs and throwing him back. Rocket got mad and got back up
Rocket: alright listen here buddy, you've been in there all day, now open the door!
He punched the door. Which hurt his arm a bit.
Rocket: OPEN THE DOOR GROOT, NOW
The rest of the guardians came down. Quill was looking confused, gamora was scared, drax had his blades drawn out, mantis was prepared for something
Quill: what's wrong with him
Rocket: he locked himself in his room dipshit.
Drax: I can cut a hole to get him out
Gamora: no, we'll convince him.
Then, groot's twigs began to attack them all. Quill got pinned to the floor, gamora got thrown across, drax was extremely tied up from top to bottom. Rocket was pinned to the wall. Mantis best avoided the twigs and hold on to as many as she can. She closed her eyes and her antennas began to glow. She realized what was going on. She let them go and clapped her hands together
Quill: what does he feel
Mantis: he feels anixous, scared, afraid to show himself
Rocket: why is that, groot is never afraid to show himself
Mantis: I'm a mind reader, not a magician
Quill: I think I know what's going on.
Quill got free from the twigs and he got up to the door
Mantis: what is going on
Quill: groot listen to me, I know you're scared right now. Scared about how people will think about your looks. But that's okay, everyone goes through with this. Drax went through it, rocket I think went through it, mantis and gamora went through it although it was much worse
Gamora: seriously
Quill: I also went through it, I mean you think I sounded like this my whole life, HECK no, I was about as squeaky as a squeaky toy. But the point is, everyone goes through this kind of thing, no matter who it is. Now, open the door, and everything will be okay. Right everybody
Rocket nodded, mantis gave him a thumbs up. Gamora nodded as well. Drax said "OF COURSE WE WOULD"
Groot let everyone go of his twigs. They heard footsteps walking through the door. Then, a click. Then, the door opened to reveal a way bigger groot than last night. He was about the height of mantis.
Everyone had a different reaction. Rocket fainted. Mantis was a bit weirded out. Drax just stood there. Gamora had a faint smile on her face. And quill was happy for groot
Quill: you see look it's okay, you're still groot aren't you
Groot smiled and opened his arms for a group hug. Which everyone beside rocket, joined in.
Man, that was fun to make. I always wondered what it was like for groot to hit that growth spurt. So here's this story
Review for me please.
Bye
