Chapter 38: Rocket secret mission
Summary: Rocket temporarily leaves the ship
Gamora and Peter search Rocket room
Groot hope he did the right thing
Rocket left his room carrying a large a large knapsack loaded with weapons and his golden armor. He was surprised that Groot was waiting for him.
Groot said," Your going on another of those secretive missions?"
Rocket answered," Yeah buddy I am."
Groot replied," Gamora is waiting for you in the common room. She will not let you pass without knowing what your planning."
Rocket realized Groot was right before asking," Will you help me get off this ship?"
Groot asked, "How long will you be gone?"
Rocket answered," If nothing goes wrong 3 days, if something goes wrong maybe a week."
Groot asked," What if your action fails?"
Rocket smiled and answered," If I fail they will come for the guardians thinking that they are in on it."
Groot knew he could not talk Rocket out of it and If Peter knew what Rocket was planning would try to let Nova Corp handle it before replying," See you in a week." and opening up his chest cavity for Rocket to hide in.
Groot closed his chest and went to the common room, seeing Gamora, Groot noticed his translator was still on before saying," I am going to take a little walk around the ship."
Gamora replied," Just be careful this is a rough world."
Groot carefully walked around the ship before finding the blind spot of the ship and reopened his chest to let Rocket out.
Rocket jumped out before flipping a small transmitter and a tracker to Groot before saying, "If you need me, you can contact me by using the transmitter, feel free to hide the tracker in my room."
Groot watched Rocket quickly scamper away with his load of weapons before sticking the transmitter into his chest and going back inside the ship.
Peter waited until Drax relieved him watch duty before going to the common room. Seeing Gamora sitting there, he asked; "I thought you were going to bed."
Gamora looked up at him before answering," I need to talk to Rocket before I go to bed and he was suppose to come pass me before he left the city for something."
Peter replied," I still have the master key and we can see him in his room.
Gamora glanced up at him before asking," What do you think he would do if we enter his room without knocking?"
Peter answered," WE knock, if he does not answer than we use the key, he might be mad but we can tell him we were worry about him."
Gamora relpied, "Let us get this over with."
Peter smiled before heading to his room for the key.
Groot entered and seeing Gamora asked," What is wrong, Gamora?"
Gamora answered, " I know Rocket is going to do something horrible but I don't know what and I want to try and stop him."
Groot looked and seeing had not come back before replying," He has some secret personal missing and will not even tell me, what it is."
Peter came out of his room before saying," I can not find the master key."
Gamora looked at Groot before asking," Groot do you have the master key?"
Groot answered," I have not seen it since Peter lent it to Drax to get into his room, when he locked himself out of it."
Peter slapped his forehead and hurried up the steps to the cock pit.
Groot sat down on the couch before hiding the tracker between the seat and said," Rocket has been on his personal mission even before I meet him. I do know that two things happen during the missions, some Very Important Individual vanishes and several charities got huge anonymous donation to their causes."
Gamora asked," So do you think he is responsible for the disappearances?"
Groot answered," I think he know something about what happens to the individuals but will not talk about it."
Gamora replied," Someday he is going to have to tell us, everything." Hearing Peter approaching.
Peter looked at Gamora before saying," Drax left it in his room" before heading to Drax's room.
Groot asked, "Want to bet Drax has locked his room once he left it?" Before changing his seat.
Gamora answered," No because he has done it to often.:"
Peter returned before saying," He locked his keys inside his room again."
Gamora replied, "When Rocket comes out of his room, he can go through the shaft and opened it from the inside."
Peter sighed before saying," I am thinking of getting spares for Drax."
Gamora replied," He will just lock the spares in the room with the original.
Groot stood before saying," Peter, I believe it is your turn to dishes." and leaving the room.
Peter asked,: The next time that Rocket And I are suppose to talk would you be presents to help."
Gamora did not need to think before immediately replying," It would be an honor to help you and Rocket stop your quarrelling."
Peter stood before saying," I think I am going to follow Groot's advice and go make supper."
