Gamora had made sure to explain every detail of Thanos vision of the world to the Avengers, what he would do with all other stones, how far he'd go. They also explained their experience with the power stone and how Thanos had forged a special gauntlet to be able to control it, Thor offered himself to search for someone to build a weapon capable of destroying the stones, another small team left Earth to hide the space stone meanwhile.
She, Quill and Mantis waited with the Avengers in the Sanctum, they sat in a small living room, some other two strangers stood far on the corner working on some computers. Peter felt weird being back on Earth, something he would have never agreed on different circumstances, however he was hopeful their stay would be short and with the new team they'd be able to defeat Thanos, specially since Peter knew how much damage he had done to Gamora. She seemed even more alert, anxious, he'd even say scared.
"We're okay, everything is going to be okay, we've already done more than enough" he promised her and then whispered "if they can't succeed we'll leave"
She nodded dismissively and held his hand for a few seconds before saying
"I need to talk with whoever's in charge"
"Gamora, we already have a plan, don't worry, there's nothing we can-"
"But there is Peter! There is and I can't keep on pretending there's nothing I can do about it" she exclaimed
"Is everything okay?" One of the so called avengers stepped in, he had a beard and a suit with a star, Peter promised he would not judge their style choice, by his side a red haired woman, nothing he would criticize her for.
"Gamora" the red hair woman spoke directly to her in a calm tone "we both know there is something else you're not telling us, please, help us"
Gamora took a deep breath "I know where the Soul stone is, he suspects it, Thor mentioned I could help with insight and I have, but me being here along two other stones is in no way helpful, I need to leave"
"Maybe we can look for it" the man offered
"No, no one has come out alive, we don't know what's guarding it" she explained "we'll get it once we have a way to destroy it, meanwhile it's the only one he hasn't been able to track, but I need somewhere to hide"
Peter stood up "I'll take the ship and we'll leave"
"Yes" Mantis joined the conversation
"No" Gamora told them both "Thanos probably already knows the ship, let's ask the portal maker"
"I'll get him" the man offered and ran outside the room
"Peter, Mantis" Gamora said whispering "stay here, you can both help them"
"No" he exclaimed "Gamora I'm not leaving you"
"Me neither, you are my family now" Mantis added
"He'll kill me, torture me, I am okay with that, I can take it"
"Well so can I, and Mantis was literally made by my father, we're experts on being tortured"
She pushed him back frustrated "This is not a game Peter, I'm being serious"
"If something would happen to you...I would just...I would...I would rather be with you, okay?"
Stephen crossed the door "We can't waste time"
Gamora looked over at Peter and Mantis "Are you sure?"
Peter took her hand and Mantis joined.
Vision waited inside an office, he had been taken into care and tested by wakandan scientists, he waited for a result, however he already knew the answer, he appreciated the concern and even if it was completely illogical there could be a solution in which he could survive, he hoped for it.
King T'Challa entered the room alongside Bruce Banner, Vision stood up in respect, the man offered him a smile and gestured for him to sit back down.
"Vision, the stone gives you life as you already know" T'Challa spoke "I have made sure to run all the possible tests, however-"
"There is no posible way I can exist without the stone" Vision finished the sentence
T'Challa nodded "I'm afraid so, Doctor Banner here informed me of your selfless proposition of being parted of the stone so it can be destroyed. We do not want that to happen and will do everything in our power to avoid it"
"Yes, and I appreciate it, but I hope we have a second option"
T'Challa nodded "We do, my sister herself will see in the extraction of the stone, our plan is to leave your body intact and search for a way to capture a smaller amount of the power of mind stone, in that way perhaps we could find a way to keep you with us"
Vision nodded "As long as the stone is destroyed I give my consent, I trust you with my body and its abilities"
T'Challa smiled politely "Thank you"
"I'd like to leave a message in case things do not go as planned" he spoke "do you have a pen?"
