Chapter 11

Gamora's Point of View

As I sat and watched Emma, she looked like she was simply sleeping and that she could wake up at any time. I prayed this was true, it was heartbreaking watching her lying in a bed surrounded by all the beeping machines. Every so often the doctor would come in and check if she was making any improvement. In the first 5 hours there was no improvement, the doctor was not pleased by this. He tested her ability to breath by herself twice, neither attempt went well. Her heart stopped both times, the first time it took 15 minutes to restart the second almost a half and hour. This sent me into hysterical sobs. Peter was there the whole time assuring me she would wake up. I'm not pleased to say i yelled at him, I was so mean he left me alone. I didn't want to be alone so I went after him minutes after to apologise. He accepted my apology straight away and told me to be strong and have hope Emma was a fighter.

The doctor came back within a half hour of the second attempt to get Emma breathing on her own. He said he was going to try again, that she needed to be breathing on her own for a better chance of waking faster. This time seemed different, instead of crashing straight away there was a pause, i couldn't breathe the whole time, then suddenly she took a breath. I let out a sigh of relief, as did Peter. After the doctor had left the room I started talking to Emma to try and wake her up now that she was at least breathing on her own. I didn't really think it would work but it was better than sitting watching her. I began to tell her the story of how myself and Peter first met and how our paths crossed again 15 years later. Peter who was sitting on Emma's other side,holding her hand joined in and told her his point of view on the story.

We talked for at least 2 hours making sure we left nothing out. It helped a take our minds off worrying and it made us feel like were were doing something productive. By the time we had finished telling her the story Rocket and Groot had snuck into thr room claiming it was unfair to be left outside. I looked at Rocket he was holding something in his hand, it was a plant pot and in it was a little stick. He saw me looking and told me, it was baby Groot, and he was growing again. This gave me hope that if Groot, who had split into a million pieces, could survive then Emma could pull through. As we sat and chatted, hoping our presence would wake Emma we talked about the adventure we had all had together. Peter said to Rocket jokingly "I cant believe you called us the Guardians of the Galaxy, that makes us sound like heroes, we cant be criminals anymore" at this we started laughing until we heard a small voice saying "there is no way you lot can go 5 minutes without getting into trouble".

I looked around Emma had woken up, she looked like crap but she was awake. I felt tears return to my eyes, but this time they were happy tears. I reached over and pulled her into a hug, as Peter wrapped his arms around the both of us. Drax had went and got the doctor who came into check Emma. He made us all leave the room so he could get peace to perform the necessary checks. When he came out he informed us she was completely fine and that she would have no lasting brain damage. I felt like a huge weight had been lifted off me, I thanked him and went back into my daughter.

As we headed back into the room Rocket and Drax told us they would give us time together, before heading off. Peter thanked them and came into join myself and Emma. It was the first time we got to spend time together as a family without someone trying to kill us. We talked about different things and filled Emma in on what she had missed. We also retold our story of how we met both the first and second time. Emma laughed she found it hilarious that I had tried to steal the orb from him, before getting us both arrested. As she laughed Peter turned to her and said "that reminds me kid, you were in jail to, how the hell did you get there?"

Emma looked down and pretended to be innocent "all I did was return a ship I had borrowed five years earlier, to the Nova Corp" this made both me and Peter laugh she really was our daughter. She went on to explain that the main reason she had stole it was so she could find myself and Peter, but she ended up crashing on earth. This hurt me and made me sad to think of her all alone at age 10, desperately looking for her parents. after all i caused it.

I told her I was sorry we hadn't been there for her, and that we would make up for it. She told me she forgave me, which was nice, and that she had made a lot of friends on earth who she considered to be family. I was grateful to whoever these people were that had made my daughter feel like she had a home and people who cared. At that moment I decided that given the chance I would like to meet them and thank them all. After talking for what felt like only a minute Emma got tired and said she needed to go to sleep. Peter decided he was going to sing her to sleep, he started singing "I cant stop this feeling deep inside of me" Emma sat up and looked at him before turning to me and saying "make it stop please" I laughed and hit Peter in the head with a pillow. He started to complain before I said "Your daughter requested it" he pretended to huff and said "you ladies don't appreciate good singing. After that he sat quietly as Emma drifted asleep, not long after she fell asleep myself and Peter did too.

The next morning we awoke to find the leader of Nova Corp, Nova Prime, standing beside us. She was here to thank us and to see how Emma was. She went on to tell us how she had rebuilt Peter's ship as best she could and as a thank-you all our criminal records had been erased. She also honoured us with the official title "The Guardian's of the Galaxy" and told us how we were now expected to help in any crisis the galaxy may have. This was it I thought to myself, I was finally getting my clean start and could live happily as a family and as a team member, with my new found friends and long lost daughter. We were no longer criminals and losers but we were heroes. After than she left us to digest the information, telling us to report to her after Emma was released from hospital.

It was a further three days before Emma was allowed to leave, something of which we took great advantage of to have family time. Peter brought in his Walkman to play some of his music, however he didn't get far, Emma looked at it in horror and declared that it was ancient. She told Peter to go and get her things so she could show him modern technology as she described it. Peter pretended to be offended but nevertheless ran off to get Emma's things. Once she had them she pulled out a small device, which she called an iPod. She showed Peter how to work it, after that he hogged it for 2 hours! I didn't mind as it allowed myself and Emma to talk. We talked about lots, were we had been in the galaxy, things we liked and of course our favourite foods. Somehow we got onto the topic of Kevin Bacon, the man Peter had told me about. Emma laughed as I told her what Peter had said.

She started to look around in her bag and pulled out what looked to be a slightly larger version of the iPod. She called this device an iPad and told me she had something called a movie on it. Peter took his earphones off and asked what we were looking for. Emma ignored him until she found it. "I believe you have heard of Footloose" she said to Peter he nodded and said "are you kidding i love that movie, its been a while but I can pretty much remember all of it!" "Well then, how about we watch it as a family I have it on my iPad!" she said excited. I didn't know what she meant but looked at the screen anyway. The iPad started playing the movie; from the first minute I was hooked I loved it. By the end Peter had made me get up and dance to the main theme with him as Emma sat laughing. I had to admit it was a lot of fun. Over the next two days and nights we watched every film Emma had on this Ipad thing. We watched E.T I cried at that, we watched Grease another musical film, Danny is hot and we watched Top Gun along with at lease 10 more movies. I loved movies and I loved watching them with my family even more.

However Emma had to be released at some stage bursting our little family bubble, so we left the morning of her release and headed to Nova Corp. As we headed over to collect Peter's new ship we met Nova Prime. She told us we could have 2 weeks off before she contacted us with any jobs she may have for us, that involved saving the Galaxy. After that she asked could she have a word with Emma alone before we left. I was hesitant at first but finally agreed. I wondered what she could want her for.

Emma's Point of View

Takes place after they leave the Hospital

As I watch my parent's head towards the ship, leaving me with Nova Prime, I wondered what she wanted with me alone, that didn't concern my parents. She asked me to follow her over to her screen, once we go there she started to explain why she didn't want the others here. "I have a message for you, its from earth, I don't know how they got it here but they ask for you and you alone" after that she hit play. Much to my surprise it was Agent Coulson who appeared on the screen. Thank God Fury had told me he was alive after New York before I saw this message.

He looked different than I remembered. He spoke to me "Emma, S.H.I.E.L.D has fallen" he said, "It was taken over by HYDRA they have been inside the whole time. Every Agent is being investigated, this means you are too. I have wiped your records, about being from a different world, but I urge you not to return to earth in the near future, it is too dangerous, if they find you they will kill you or worse experiment on you for being different. I hope you have found your family, and are safe; I will contact you again when it is safe, but it will not be soon. Don't worry about us down here, Natasha had gone into hiding with Clint I assume, May is with me trying to rebuild S.H.I.E.L.D, Hill is working for Stark and as for Fury I have no idea. So keep yourself hidden and wait for my word on when you can return. All the best Agent Quill I hope I can see you again." His message ended there.

I didn't know what to think, should I ignore him and go and help. I decided to discuss it with my parents after all Agent Coulson was like a dad to me I couldn't just leave him alone and in danger. I thanked Nova Prime for showing me the message and went of to join my parents. Once we were on the ship I didn't get a chance to ask them what I should do I was ordered to go straight to bed.

Once we were in the air the team came to join me, they all sat around my bed. "So what should we do? Something bad, something good, or a little bit of both!" My dad said "Whatever you decide, we will follow you lead Star-Lord" my mum replied. I took my chance there and said, "what do you guys think about earth? Only for a few days there are some people I need to check on" My dad looked at me and said "I like earth, I'm in, but you need to tell us who these people are so we can see what were up against!" the others all agreed with his statement. Ok I said, "Have you ever heard of the Avengers?"…..

Hey everyone so that's the end of My Alien Family. I am considering doing a short sequel but not sure yet. Hope you all enjoyed and thanks to everyone who followed, made it a favourite and reviewed. I really appreciate all the support I got for this story and cant thank you enough. :-D
