Chapter 2: Kyln

The five of them, Peter, Gamora, Rocket, Groot and Hako were waiting for their sentences. They were call one by one to see their records. First was Gamora, Hako was surprise to find she was adopted by Thanos and geneticcally modified to be an assassin, "Heartless Bastard" was all she can think. Next was Rocket or "Subject 89P13" he was the result of illegal experiments. After him came Groot, the Flora Colossus. Then Peter Quill also known as "Star-Lord", Hako laugh at him, she thinks that was the stupidest alias ever.

"Get in the line-up!" A guard yell at Hako, she got up and stand before the guards while the see through her records

"Hako, 26 years old. Originally from Derra. She´s the last member of her species. She´s a Heartless assassins, kill every target without questioning and without fail. Witness claim that she was working Ronan but those were only rumors. Until now she kill near 2,056 people in the whole galaxy" The guard was seeing what´s left on the record and his eyes widen "She´s the biological Daughter of Thanos" Everyone gasped including Gamora, Peter, Rocket and Groot.

"Surprise, Officer?" Hako smile viciously at him

"Very..." The officer close her records

"What a bunch of a-holes, Transport all five to the kyln. Have extra precaution on Hako, she need more than a handcuff" Hako leave and sit next to Gamora, turn to see her and smile at her.

"I can´t believe Thanos replace me with someone like you... sister"


When they got to kyln, Gamora, Peter, Groot and Rocket were handcuffed while the guard put a straitjacket on Hako. They were walking into the prison now, Gamora was first, then Rocket, Peter, Groot and last was Hako.

"I guess most of Nove Corps wanna up hold the laws but these ones here, they´re corrupt and cruel" Rocket say while they walk to the kyln "But hey, That´s not a problem. I ain´t gonna be here long. I´ve escaped twenty-two prisons. This one´s no different. You´re lucky the broad showed up, ´cause otherwise, me, Groot and Hako would be collecting that bounty right now, and you´d be getting drawn and quartered by Yondu and those Ravagers"

"Why did you ally with the Daughter of a maniac?" Peter ask eyeing at Hako to see her reaction, she doesn´t look bothered at all

"Well first of all, thanks for the compliment. Second, Yondu offer me 80 Thousands if i bring you to him in a couple of hours... but now that precious money fly to the window like birds seeking freedom"

"I never could have say it better" Rocket smile at Hako

"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, a psycho girl and a talking racoon"

"Hold" The guard in the front say, then everyone stop

"What´s a racoon?" Rocket asked not knowing that word. Hako start to laugh

"Are you serious? if you go to terra, you´ll know for sure" She continue to laugh until one of the guard zap her "SON OF A B-" Hako scream "DO THAT AGAIN! I DARE YOU! I FUCKING DARE YOU" The guard stop for a moment, he knows how dangerous she is and it´s better to not make her angry, she wasn´t in her cell yet.

"Anyway, this orb has a real shiny blue suitcase, ark of the Covenant, Maltese Falcon sort of vibe, What is it?" Peter ask to Gamora

"I am Groot"

"So what. What´s the Orb?"

"I have no word for an honourless thief" Gamora said crearly angry

"That´s pretty high and mighty, coming from the lackey of a genocidal maniac" Gamora turn to Rocket, surprise of what he say "Yeah, i know who you are. Anyone who´s anyone knows who you are"

"Yeah, we know who you are!... Who is she?" Peter asked and Hako facepalm

"Seriously?" Hako couldn´t believe him

"I am Groot"

"Yeah, you said that"

"I wasn´t retrieving the Orb for Ronan, i was betraying him. I had an agreement to sell it to a third party"

"Ronan will find you and kill you, i work for him years ago" Hako say and everyone turn around to see her "Why are you surprise? I´m a Bounty Hunter/Assassin if you offer good money i come running, Ronan make me kill a Xandar politian. I do it, got the money and told him i was done with him. That guy is an asshole... i want his head so badly and put it in my wall" Hako breath like she smell something delicious "With only thinking of the smell of the blood that would came out If i rip his head off..."

"You are freaking me out girl" Peter said uneasy

"Me too" Rocket was with Peter in this one

"I am Groot"

"Well, that´s just as fascinating as the firts 89 times you told me that!" Peter yell and ask to Rocket "Hey, What is wrong with "giving tree" here?"

"He don´t know talkin´good like you and me. So his vocabulistics is limited to "i" and "am" and "Groot" Exclusively in that order"

"Well, i tell you what; that´s gonna wear real thin, real fast" They were walking near a room where the guard keep their weapons and personal belongings. One of them was holding a walkman, Hako recognize them because she have one too but her´s was white.

"Hey! Put that away!" Peter snapped and enter the room before the door close "Listen, you big blue bastard, take those headphones off! That´s mine! Those belong in impound, that tape and that player is mine!" The guard tased him and he fall to the ground, only his knees were supporting him. Hako start to laugh at Peter and the other saw her.

"Let it go, Peter. You´re losing here, hehehehe" The guard zap her again "What now?! I was laughing, fucker!" He did it again and she snapped "That´s it!" She break her straitjacket and strangle the guard, he try to defend himself but it was useless. The others guard came out of the room to help him.

"Hako, let him go. now!" She turn to them, smile viciously.

"Okay" She move her arms and a noise could be heard. She kill the man with her bare hands in seconds "I let him go" The guards were scare of her "Now then... i´m going to make myself clear. If some of you try that again i will end you all by myself. I´m not afraid of dead. I´ll go to my cell and i hope no one disturb me" She turn to the group of misfits she arrive with "Except for them, so take it easy. I´m not going to kill any of you. I have a deal with you Rocket and you are interesting, Groot as well" Hako

go to one of the guards "Can you tell me where´s my cell?"

"First you have to shower, a guard will escort you and the others... and don´t kill another guard"

"hehehe i can´t make any promise" Hako went to Peter and help him to get up then they go to the showers

"... Your deal means nothing now that we are here" Rocket was the first to talk since she kill the guard

"It doesn´t matter now, i think you and Groot are interesting. Can you tell me more about him?"

"Why?"

"No reason... I just want to know why a Flora Colossus is here. They don´t ussually leave their planet"

"Ask him... i don´t know if he´ll talk to you since you kill that with with a freaking smile in your face"

"I see... he doesn´t like violence"

"He´s more of a pacifist, if you ask me"


After being shower with a thick orange fluid, Hako was throw to a room where Gamora was dressing herself with the prison clothes. Hako grab the clothes and put them on, Gamora turn around so watch her and ask her straigh out

"Why did you leave Thanos?" Hako saw her for a moment, then smile

"... Why are you betraying Ronan and Thanos?"

"I hate them"

"There´s your answer"

"But Thanos is your real father"

"... like i care. Don´t ask again" Hako finish dressing herself and get out of the room, the guard were waiting them to escort them to their cells. Hako was the first to enter the prison and saw a lot of prisoners yelling at her and the group. She smile at them and walk. She decided that if she´s going to escape then she need to make sure to kill a lot of guards to make her way to a ship. It was easy for her, a massacre was her only answer now. Of course, she´ll take Rocket and Groot with her... Peter was optional and Gamora... she don´t actually hate her but she can´t understand why Thanos adopt her. Maybe was because she escape from him a long time ago so he want a child to torture. She decided to take Gamora too and leave her in the first planet she see.

Hako stay close to Rocket to heard what he was saying "A lot of prisoners here lost their families to Ronan and his goons. She´ll last a day, tops" Rocket was talking about Gamora.

"The guards will protect her, right?" Peter ask to Rocket, obviously that won´t happen. It was clear that Peter never been in prison before

"They give a crap, Peter. They don´t care who kill who here" Hako said with her tipical creepy smile

"Like the Psycho said, They don´t care. Their only work is to not let anyone out. For example" Rocket point at Hako "She could kill us all and the guard won´t move a finger to protect the prisoners"

"It´s sad actually. That´s how prison are"

"Whatever nightmares the future holds are dreams compared to what´s behind me" Gamora said calmly

"Really? Say that again when this people try to kill you and we end up saving your ass"

"... You wouldn´t move a finger for me"

"I know... i just want to give you hopes"

Then a giant blue alien stop us, he was eyeing at Peter with a smile in his face. Hako take a few steps closer to Peter, in case something happen she will protect him she need him alive for the reward even if Yondu won´t give her the 80 thousand. She´ll share the money with Rocket and Groot, she could be a murdered but she take promises seriously.

"Check out the new meat" The blue alien said at Peter and touch him "I´m gonna slather you up in Gunavian Jelly" Hako was about to kick his ass and kill him but Groot put two of his fingers in the alien´s nostrils and lifted him up while he scream in pain

"Let´s make something clear! This one here´s OUR booty! you wanna get him? you go through us! or more accurately... we go through you!" Groot broke the aliens noise and let him down, he grab his nose and whine in pain in the floor.

"Rocket... that´s not how you treat people" Hako went to the alien that was in the ground and cut herself in the hand. Blood start to leak from the wound and form a sword, she grab the alien and yell at the prisoners. "Listen up! Touch him" she point at Peter "or them" point at Rocket, Groot and Gamora "and this will happen" she take the alien and slit his throat in front of the entire prison. Everyone went silent "No objections?... good! Now then, do as i say and everyone´s happy" She throw the corpse at a group of prisoners and walk away. Rocket and Groot follow her and Peter stay there a moment.

"I´m with them" He went after them.
