I don't own Kingdom Hearts or X-Men: Evolution. They belong to Disney, Square Enix, Cartoon Network, and Marvel. Okay, time for Sora to experience his first world and reveal the longest chapter I have ever written but first let'd reply to some reviews...

Blazer777: If your still reading this. I want to thank you. I've went over my work on my laptop and I fix many errors for this story. I even extended it a little as well. However, if your still not interested into this then that's fine. If you to want a telekinetic Sora, then you could try writing it yourself. Let me know if you do and I'll want to check it out...

Petor: Thank you.

Alright, with that out of the way...LET'S DO THIS!

Chapter 3: The Galatic Heroes

"You sure you don't need a ride home?" Kairi asked Sora. They had hung out to see the new Independence Day sequel and it was getting late. Riku nodded, "Yeah, I take drop both you and Kairi home. No problem." Sora raised his hand, "It's alright. I'll feel like walking this evening."

"We heard you gotta new student in your school and she's also coming to our school tomorrow. Is it true?" Riku asked. Sora nodded, "Yeah, Kitty. She's nice. I think you guys would like her." Kairi nervously asked, "So...your not interested her...in any way, are you?"

"Interested? What do you mean?" Sora wondered. Riku exclaimed, "She means if you want to date Kitty and not...!" Kairi quickly covered his mouth before he could say her name. Kairi quickly filled in, "And not anyone out your home school like... say...a girl at our school?"

"Oh..." Sora realized, "No, I only see Kitty as a friend besides it really wouldn't work. With her living right next to me she most like end up like my sister if anything... And that would be... Awkward." Kairi signed, "Oh, what a relief..."

"Huh?" Sora was confused. Riku removed Kairi's hand and whispered, "Just skip to the part, where you give him your phone number." Kairi blushed, "Uh...hey, Sora? I know you've only been here for a few weeks and if you have any questions about school... just give me a call..."

"Um...okay...but I don't know..." Sora pointed out but Kairi cut him off and asked, "Can I borrow your arm for a second?" Sora raised an eyebrow, "Uh...sure." He raised his arm as she took out a pen and wrote her phone number on it. Kairi smiled, "Be sure to write that down somewhere before you wash."

"Okay..." Sora replied staring at the phone number. Kairi smiled, "We'll see you next week." Riku smiled, "Take care, man."

"Yeah...you too..." Sora nodded. As Riku and Kairi went inside Riku's jeep. He smirked at Kairi, "You like him..." Kairi's eyes narrowed as she blushed, "Shut up and drive..." With that, the drove home as Sora waved goodbye to them. He went back to stare at the number... "I wonder if she's aware we all carry iphones now..."

He reached down in his pocket to pull out his phone except..."Ugh! I left it at home..." Sora groaned, just the Sora's Keyblade appeared. His eyes widened, "Huh?" He didn't summon it, he looked around. Thankfully, no one was around. Sora tried to put it away but it refused, "C'mon..."

After a third attempt light swirled around his Keyblade until the light was so bright it blinded him. After huge flash of light, he disappeared. Just as a man in a brown cloak watched the whole event...

After the light show, Sora's eyes opened and observed around the area him. He saw many mutants...or at least he thought the were mutants in orange jumpsuits, "I don't think I'm in Bayville anymore..." His eyes widened as a few of them started at them, "Um...hi... I'm just going to take a guess here... And I'm going to assume that this is a prison of some short..."

They nodded to him. Sora continued, "...and from the looks you giving me, you most likely use me as a hostage to try to get out of here." They began each grinning. Sora gulped, "I have a bad feeling about this..."

They each began slowly walking to him. Sora then realized something and grinned, "...and coinciding there are no humans around means I don't have hide my powers." Sora re-summoned his Keyblade as the criminals charge him. He swiped his Keyblade at one causing him to trip. He then slammed the handle on his Keyblade to knock one out as he punched out another. He then cast a fireball to send one flying. Thankfully, with his training with Wolverine and his battles with the unversed he was used to dealing with groups of villains. One tried to get the drop on him but he was saved by a green woman who took out the last guy. Sora turned to her, "Um...thanks?"

"Come with me if you want to live, Keyblade Master." She told him. Sora raised his eyebrow, "How do I know you won't take me hostage as well?" She replied, "You don't... But I'm the best chance you've got and I need your help. And if I fail to do that I was here for, billions of lives will be lost."

She then walked off... Sora wasn't sure if she was beginning honest with him... But she was his best chance to figure out how he got here and get home. And if what she said was true... He had to help. Sora groaned, "Dang it, conscious!" Sora quickly followed her, and he asked her, "So, how'd you know who I am?"

"Like the gaint key wasn't obvious." She replied sarcastically. Sora nodded, "Good point." She turned to him, "Though to be honest, I thought the Keyblade Master would be older, stronger, and wise. Why it picked you, boy, I'll never know." Sora frowned at that as she continued, "But beggars can't be choosers. You'll have to do."

"So, what's the situation? Why do you need me anyways? Who are you?" Sora asked before she could reply another group of thugs and seemed less intrested with Sora and more with the green woman, "Gamora, consider this a death sentence for your crimes against the galaxy."

"Huh? What's going on?" Sora was confused. What exactly did she do? Just as another prisoner came with anger in his eyes, "You dare? You know who I am, yes?" The inmates slowly backed away the woman, now known as Gamora, and the one who held the knife her throat replied, "You're Drax...the Destroyer!"

"You want to know why they call me this?" He asked. The same Immate replied, "You slated dozens of Ronan's minions."

"Ronan murdered my wife, Ovette, and my daughter Camaria. He slaughtered them where they stood...and he laughed!" Drax said. Sora's eyes widened, he felt bad for this guy. Drax continued as he walked, "Her life is not yours to take. He killed my family and I shall take one of his in return."

The prisoner backed away and handed him the knife, "Of course Drax. Here I…" But before anyone could do anything Gamora took two of the prisoners' knives and killed two of them with it, causing Sora to wince, she pointed the knifes to Drax and another prisoner that threatened her life earlier. She told them, "I am no family to Ronan or Thanos..." She the put the knives down showing she meant no harm to either of them, "I'm your only hope at stopping him."

Drax wouldn't hear it and grabbed her by the throat, "Woman, your words mean nothing to me!" Sora quickly stepped in before he could kill her, "You know if killing Ronan is truly your sole purpose I don't think this is the best way to go about it."

Drax turned to Sora as someone else spoke up, "He's right!" Sora turned to see another human who looked about a little older than Kitty and Kurt. Drax turned to him as well and asked, "Are you not the man this wench attempted to kill?"

"Well I mean she's hardly the first woman to try and do that to me." The teenager chuckled. He lifted his shirt to show a few scars on his chest, "Look, this sis from a smoking-hot Rajak girl. Stabbed my with a fork. Didn't like me skipping out on her at sunrise." He showed another by his neck, "I got right here, a Kree girl tried to rip out my thorax. She caught me with this skinny little A'askavariian who worked in Nova Records. I was trying to get information. You ever see an A'askavariian? They have tentacles and needles for teeth. If you think I'm seriously interested in that, then…" he stopped to see Sora and Drax just staring at them when he realized, "You don't care but there's the point." He guested at Gamora. "She betrayed Ronan. He's coming back for her. And when he does, that's when you..." He finger out and slid it across his throat. This only confused the two even more, Sora wondered, "Why would he put his finger on his throat?"

"I have no idea." Drax agreed. The only other human explained, "What? Oh, no. This is a symbol for you slicing his throat." Sora then understood, "Oh...that make senses! I get it!"

"I would not slice his throat. I would cut his head clean off." Drax replied. Sora looked at him sounds like he and Wolverine would get along... just fine. The teenage contenuied to explain, "It's a general expression for you killing somebody."

"You've heard of this? You've seen this right? You know what that is?" He asked the other prisoner. He quickly nodded, "Yeah, yeah."

"Everyone knows." Drax explained. Sora replied, "I didn't until now." Peter just stared at Sora for a few seconds before turning back to Drax, "What I'm saying is, you want to keep her alive. Don't do his work for him." Sora nodded, "Besides who would your rather go after, someone who used to work for this Ronan guy, or the man who murdered your family himself."

Drax took their words to consideration before releasing her, he looked at the knife, "I like your knife. I'm keeping it." He then walked away as the prisoner frowned, "That was my favorite knife."

Sora then offered to help Gamora up but she replied, "I'm fine. Just come with me." She got up as he followed her as well as the other human. He spoke up, "Listen! I could care less whether you live or whether you die." Gamora turned to him, "Then why stop the big guy?"

"Simple. You know where to sell my Orb." He answered. Sora just replied, "Excuss me!" They turned to Sora, "Hi, I'm Sora! Just a few moments ago I was on Earth..." Peter cut him off, "Whoa! Wait, your from Earth too?"

"Yes." Sora nodded. Peter did the finger to throat symbol again, "Then how do you not understand what this means?" Sora answered, "Hey, I lost my memories, three years okay. I'm still trying understand even the simple things in life." Peter then nodded as Sora continued, "...anyways, now I'm here in this alien prison, I believe. And I haven't the slightest idea why? Can someone explain this to me?"

"You're the Keyblade Master..." Gamora pointed to him, "You get summoned if the worlds are in grave peril or some outside your world needs your help. This qualifies."

"Okay, then why am I in prison? I'm pretty sure it's not just to get Drax to spare your life." Sora asked. Gamora replied, "I'll explain it to you later..."

"Hold on, lady!" Everyone turned to see a talking raccoon walking up to them, "Your saying this, kids, a Keyblade Master? The so called legendary warriors long to believed to be extinct as Jedi are and your saying this kid's the one was supposed to protect the universe." Gamora nodded, the raccoon exclaimed, "The universe is doomed!"

"Wow!" Sora exclaimed clearly not hearing what he said about him, "You're a talking raccoon!" The raccoon just stared at him, "You too?! What the heck is a raccoon?!" Sora wasn't really sure what to say, "uh...it's what...you are?"

"Kid, like I told, Peter Quill, there ain't no thing like me, except me." The raccoon stated. Gamora pointed out, "Besides the point. How are we going to sell it when we and it are still here?"

"My friend, Rocket, here has escaped 22 prisons." He replied. Rocket grinned, "Oh, we're getting out. And then we're heading straight to Youndu to retrieve your bounty." Peter asked, "How much was your buyer willing to pay you for my Orb?" Gamora hesitated at first before replying, "Four billion units."

"WHAT?!" Rocket exclaimed. Peter eyes widened, "Holy shit!" Sora nodded, "That's allot of units." Rocket nodded, "Yeah, way more than Quill's bounty!"

"That Orb is my only opportunity to get away from Ronan and the Organization." She explained. Sora wondered, "Who's the Organization?"

"Geez, kid, you must of hit your head pretty hard to forget about them. No really knows what they are and were they came from but...what we do know of them is they were able to kill her father, Thanos." Rocket explained. Sora turned to Gamora, "I am so sorry..."

"Don't be... I would have killed myself given the chance." She told him. Sora was shocked, what did her father do to make her want to kill him so badly. She continued, "As it turns out, they are just as bad as him and they want the Orb, too."

"And let me guess, it would be very bad if it fell into their hands." Sora assumed. Gamora nodded, "Correct." She turned to Peter, "If you free us, I'll lead you to the buyer directly, and I'll split the profit between the three of us."

"I am Groot." They turned to see and huge talking tree nearby in a cell. Sora was amazed, "Wow..." Rocket added, "Four of us. Asleep for the danger, awake for the money, as per frickin' usually." Groot just groaned as Gamora turns to Sora, "...and I'll show you how to get home once this is over."

"Sounds fair." Sora nodded...

"You have been betrayed Ronan." The a man in a cloak stated. Ronan replied, "We know only that she has been captured. Gamora may yet recover the orb."

"As if! Our sources within the Kyln say Gamora has her own plans for the orb! Look, your partnership with us is at risk. Xemnas wants at little chat with you." The clocked man opened a corridor of darkness, "Best not keep him waiting."

Ronan glared at the man before going through the portal himself. Soon, he found himself at the World that Never Was. The Organization's number II appeared in his chair. Ronan look to the highest seat and knee that this was their leader, he explained to them, "With all due respect Xemnas, Thanos's daughter and made this mess and yet you summon me. First, she lost a battle with some primitives. Then she was apprehended by the Nova Corps. Your sources say that Gamora meant to betray us the whole time!"

"Mind your tone, Accuser." Said number VII, "We assigned Gamora and her sister Nebula under your authority and your responsibility..." Xemnas raised his hand and number VII remained quiet. He nodded letting him continue, "I only ask that you take this matter seriously."

"The only matter we do not take seriously, boy, is you. Your politics bore me! Your demeanor is that of a pouty child. And apparently you alienated Thanos's favorite daughter, Gamora. And now sources say that she has made contact with a wielder of the Keyblade."

"Impossible! The Keybladers are long extinct before the Jedi were." Ronan replied. Number VIII spoke up, "Actually, like the Jedi a handful manger to survive and a new one was chosen very recently, got it memorized?"

"No! Then we must destroy him or he'll do whatever it takes stopping us retrieving the Orb and succeeding in destroying Xandar." Ronan eyes narrowed. Xemnas replied, "I would actually prefer. He will be needed to further us in our plans. I shall honor our partnership, Kree. If you bring me the Orb and the boy." Ronan nodded as Xemnas finished, "Should you fail us... then you serve us forever as Dusk and a Shadow. Now... go..."

Xemnas opened a corridor of darkness to return home.

"Okay, what's the plan?" Sora asked. Everyone met up with Rocket at the cafeteria. Rocket explained, "Okay, guys. If we're gonna get out of here we need to get into that watchtower."

He guested to the watchtower in the center of the cafeteria. "And to do that I'm gonna need a few things. The guards wear security bands to control their ins and outs. I need one."

"Leave it to me." Gamora nodded. Rocket guested inmate with a robotic leg. "That dude there?I need his prosthetic leg."

"His leg?" Sora raised an eyebrow. Rocket nodded, "Yeah, by the looks of him, he's completely useless. I don't need the rest of him." Sora looked offended, "Dude, why do you even need it?"

"You want to go home or not, kid?" Rocket asked. Sora signed, "I still feel wrong about taking his leg." Peter pointed out, "You do realize he was put in here for a reason, right?"

"So, were you." Sora pointed. Peter nodded, "Fair point. I'll get the leg, and I'll even pay him for it, if makes you feel better." Sora signed, "I can live with that."

"And finally, on the wall back there is a black panel. Blinky yellow light. Do you guys see it?" Rocket asked. Everyone nodded, "Yeah."

"There's a quarnyx battery behind it. Purplish box, green wires. To get into that watchtower I definitely need it." Rocket explained. Sora raised an eyebrow, "What about my Keyblade? Won't that work instead?"

"You don't know how to fully use it, kid. Trust me, if you were older and had more experience, I'd definitely go for you?" Rocket answered. Sora groaned, he hated when he was treated like a kid. Gamora asked, "In that case, how are we supposed to do that, Rocket?"

"Well I suppose these bald-bodies of yours find you attractive. So, maybe you can work out a trade with the guards." Rocket answered. Gamora looked offended, "You must be joking."

"No, I really heard they find you attractive." Rocket replied. Sora signed, as he thought to himself, "I wish my friends were here to explain their talking about to me."

"Look, the panel is 20 feet in the air and it's in the most heavily guarded part of the prison." Peter pointed out, "With all the security around the watchtower it's impossible to get up there without being seen."

Little did they know, Groot had already walked his way to the black panel, grew himself extra feet high and reached for the panel. Rocket told everyone. "I got one plan, and that plan requires a frickin' quarnyx battery. So figure it out!"

Groot ripped the cover of the panel out and it fell on an inmates head knocking him out. Sora turned to Groot, "Uh...Rocket? What happens if say we do get the battery?

"I was just about to get to that. Once the battery is removed, everything is gonna slam into emergency mode. Once we have it, we gotta move quickly, so you definitely need to get that last." Rocket replied. Sora's eyes widened as Groot tried to pull it out, "Not yet, Groot!"

Groot yanked the plug out. Then the lights dimmed for a bit which got everyone's attention and then the alarm started to blare. Everyone turned to Groot as Rocket shrugged, "Or we could just get the battery first and improvise."

"I'll get the armband." Gamora stated. Peter also stated, "I got the leg."

"I'll...help Groot." Sora shrugged as he summoned his Keyblade. The guards outside the tower were about to open fire on them. "Prisoner, drop the device. Return to your cell or we will open fire." Groot just glared at the drones and guards, "I... AM... GROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!"

"Fire!" The opened fired on Groot, Sora deflected the laser fire back to the drones and force the guards to take cover, he didn't want to hurt them for doing their job. The watchtower commanded ordered the prisoners, "All prisoners return to your sleeping areas."

Rocket dogded all the bullets to reach to Groot, once he got to Groot and climbed on him and complained, "You idiot! How am I supposed to fight these things without my stuff?!"

As a drone fired on Groot, he used his branches as a shield before knocking it away to Sora who cut it in half

Two guards with guns appeared and pointed their guns on Sora, Rocket, and Groot, One of the guards ordered, "The animal is in control. Fire on my command!"

However, Drax was nearby and ran to the guards and shoved one out of his way before disarming the other. He threw the weapon at another guard before throwing the guard he held away. He then took out another guard before taking out on two other guards. One guard was able to hit Drax but he shrugged it off and head butted him back before slamming another guard to the ground. Drax turned to Rocket, "Creepy little beast!"

He tossed one of the guards fallen guns to Rocket. The talking raccoon caught and loaded it up, "Oh... yeah!" Rocket then began firing on the other drones as Sora and Groot covering him. Meanwhile, Peter was talking with the alien with the robotic leg. The guy wasn't sure he heard him right, "You need my what?"

At the same time, Gamora was fighting her way to a guard with an armband. She dodged a rocket and used her incredible reflexes to take out two of the guards. She dodged a gunfire and fought off a guard with a laser gun and a riot shield.

She restrained a guard with an armband with her legs. "I'll need this." The guard smirked, "Good luck. It's internally wired."

"I'll figure something out." Gamora replied before knocking him out painfully. Peter ran his way to rejoin the others when he was stopped by a guard, ""Drop the... leg?...and move back to your cell!" Peter then used the leg to knock out the guard and took his gun. He then opened fired on the drone destroying it.

Rocket continued to open at the drones but he eventually ran out of ammo so, he tossed the gun aside. Gamora called to him, "Rocket!" She threw then the arm band to Rocket.

He caught the armband and ordered, "Move to the watchtower!" Everyone ran straight for the tower. Gamora was able to get there first. Groot lift Sora and Rocket to the tower as Peter climbed on Groot to get up there. One of the drones was about to shop Peter but was ripped in half by Drax. He looked to Peter, "You! Teenage boy who has lain with an A'askavariian!" Quill groaned, ""It was one time, man."

He continued to climb Groot followed by Drax. As they reached command tower and unlocked to door when they heard, "We need all available guards in full combat gear…" He turned to see everyone glaring at him. Groot threw him out and the locked themselves inside as Rocket went to worked on his escape plan. Gamora was surprised to see Drax there. Drax glared at her, "Spare me your foul case woman!"

"Why is this one here?" She asked in annoyance. Peter replied,

"I promised Drax he would stay by your side until he kills your boss and I always keep my promises when they're to muscle bound whack-jobs who would kill me if I don't." Peter answered. He placed down the leg, "Here you go.""

"Oh, yeah, I was just kidding about the leg. I just needed these two things." Rocket explains she as Sora and Peter's jaw dropped. "What!?" Rocket grinned, "No, I thought it'd be funny. Was it funny? No wait, what did he look like hopping around."

"You mean to tell me that we got that leg for nothing?! I had to transfer him 30,000 units!" Peter pointed exclaimed as Sora added, "How can you honestly think that's funny?!"

Rocket just chucked to himself as Drones opened fired on them but thankfully the room offered them protection. Drax asked, "How are we going to leave?"

"Well, He has a plan." Peter replied, "Do you? Or is that another thing you made up?" Rocket reassured everyone, "I have a plan! I have a plan!" Rocket exclaimed working as quickly as he could. Drax told him, "Cease your yammering and relive us from this irkstone confinement."

"Yeah, I have to agree with the walking thesaurus on that one." Peter agreed causing Drax to glared at him, ""Do not ever call me a thesaurus."

"What's with Drax and metaphors?" Sora wondered, even he knew what that last metaphor meant. Rocket replied as he worked, "His people are completely literal. Metaphors are gonna go over his head."

"Nothing goes over my head. My reflexes are too fast. I would catch it." Drax replied. Gamora complained, "I'm going to die surrounded by the biggest idiots in the galaxy."

Suddenly, guards with heavy weapons showed up. Sora's eyes widened at the size of the weapons, "That doesn't look good." Peter agreed, "Those are some big guns."

"On my command! Number one!" The commander shouted and a trooper fired a rocket at the tower and the tower shook on impact. Gamora explained, "We are ready for your plan rodent!"

"Hold on!" Rocket shouted back working faster.

"Number two!" The commander shouted and the trooper fired a rocket at the tower. Drax remembered. "I recognize this animal. We'd roast them over a flame pit as children. Their flesh was quite delicious."

Rocket turned around and glared,"Not helping!"

"Number three!" The commander shouted as a third rocket was fired on the tower and the impact cracked the window. Sora quickly started praying, he take being grounded than this any day. "All fire on my command! Three! Two! One!" Sora closed his eyes and awaited for impact when Rocket plugged wires in and everyone outside the tower was floating. Everyone was shocked by this, Sora wondered, "What... just happened?"

"He turned off the artificial gravity everywhere but in here." Gamora explained. Rocket then hacked around a few more things and the room itself began to float. Groot smiled, he never doubted his friend. Rocket the took the control of the remaining drones and they help the room move through the prison. Rocket smirked, "I told you I had a plan."

Soon they head to the prison hanger doors and they left through there. Room hit the walls a few times but they manged to get through. Once They landed, Rocket shut the hanger doors behind them. Peter had to admit, "That was a pretty good plan." Rocket nodded. Sora then used his Keyblade to knockout the broken window so they could get out. As the others went to get their stuff Peter looked out the window before saying, "Yeah! There it is! Get my ship! It's the Milano, the orange and blue one over in the corner."

Sora looked to the ship, and nodded, "Got it!" Rocket complained, "They crumpled up my pants into a ball! That's rude! They folded yours." Peter went to get his things, he checked to see if everything was there. Gamora observed him, "The Orb's there. Let's go."

"Wait, wait, wait." Peter panicked. Sora wondered, "What is it?" Peter replied, "That bastard didn't put it back." It only made Sora wondered, "Put what back?"

He just gave Gamora just gave him the bag with the Orb, "Here. Get them to the ship. I will be right back." Gamora asked, "How are you gonna possibly..."

"Just keep the Milano close by. Go. Go!" Peter told her as he ran off. Gamora just signed as she did as she was told. Once everyone was changed into their normal attire. They got on the Milano and Rocket flew it away from the prison but still keeped in range to wait for Peter, "Well, how's he gonna get to us?"

"He declined to share that information with us." Gamora replied. Rocket complained, "Well, screw this, then. I ain't around for some humie with a death wish." Sora replied, "We will, because I was taught never to leave any teammates behind..." Sora signed, "...even one with a criminal record. Dear God, I hope this doesn't backfire on me."

"That's life for you, kid." Rocket stated. Sora complained, "I have a name, you know!"

"You got the Orb, right?" Rocket ignored Sora. Gamora nodded, "Yes." She went to check on it but it wasn't there. Sora replied, "Guess he took it so, we wouldn't leave with out him." Gamora groaned in annoyance. So, they had no choice but to wait. However, Rocket was starting to become impatient really fast, "If we don't leave now. We will be blown to bits."

"No! We are not leaving without the orb." Gamora said. Everyone then looked waiting for Peter as he flew towards them. Drax stated, "Behold." Sora smirked as he looked to where Drax was looking, "He's back, guys."

"This one's got spirit. He shall make a keen ally in the battle against Ronan. Companion what weare you retrieving?" Drax asked as he and Sora helped Peter back on the ship. He ejected his cassette from his player. Sora and Drax examined it, "Whao...retro tech."

He remembered Kitty mentioning it to him as processor technology before CD's and iphones. Drax just looked at Quill, "You're an imbecile." With that, they flew away from the prison. Sora observed what was outside the window, and he was amazed, "Guess, I really am in space."

"Whoa! Whoa! Yo, Ranger Rick! What are you doing?! You can't take my ship apart without asking me!" Sora heard Peter demanded. Sora turned to see Rocket was working on something. Peter asked, "See, what it this?"

"Don't touch that!" Rocket told him, "It's a bomb." Sora's eyes widend, "A bomb?!" Rocket nodded, "Yup."

"And you leave it lying around?! Isn't that dangerous?!" Sora exclaimed. Rocket replied, "Relax, kid. I was gonna put it in a box." Peter asked, "What's a box gonna do?!" Rocket just picked up what Sora thought looked like a Birthday present, "How about this one?"

"No! Whoa! Hey! Leave it alone! " Peter got defense about the present as he put it away from Rocket. Rocket only asked "Why What is it?"

"Shut up!" Peter complained. Rocket only shrugged, "Hey." Peter then asked what Rocket was working, "What's that?"

"That's for if things get hardcore." Rocket replied, "Or you just wanna blow up moons."

"No one's blowing up moons." Gamora stated. Rocket complained , "You just wanna suck the joy out of everything." Peter then looked at the map, "Listen, I need your buyer's coordinates."

"We're heading in the right direction. For now." She replied. Sora smiled, "You know, if we're all gonna work together, we might wanna try trusting each other a little bit."

"And how much do you trust me?" Gamora asked the boy. Peter walked up to her, "I'd trust you a lot more if you told me what this thing was. Because from what you told us, I'm guessing it's some kind of weapon."

"If it's a weapon, we should use it against Ronan." Drax stated as he picked up the Orb. Gamora told him, "Put it down, you fool. You'll destroy us all."

"Or just you, murderess!" Drax argued. Gamora glared at him, "I let you live once, princess!" Drax exclaimed, "I am not a princess!"

"Hey! Nobody is killing anybody on the ship!" Sora got everyone's attention. Peter nodded, "He's right. We're stuck together until we get the money." Drax tossed Peter back the Orb, "I have no interest in money." Sora raised his hand, "Neither do I."

"Great. That means since Sora and Drax don't want the money, more for the three of us." Peter stated. Groot huffed getting everyone's attention, "Mmm?"

"For the four of us. Partners." Peter corrected. Gamora replied, "We have an agreement, but I'll never be partners with the likes of you. I'll tell the buyer we're on our way. And Quill, your ship is filthy." Gamora walked off, Peter smirked, "Oh she have no idea. If I had a black light, the place would look like a Jackson Pollock painting." Sora had no idea what that meant but it couldn't be good, "Yeah, when I get home, I'm showing... Twice."

"You got issues, Quill." Rocket stated...

Meanwhile, back at the prison, Nebula and Ronan were interrogating one of the guards as the Unversed searched the prison, "I swear! I don't know where they went I swear!" Nebula signed, "If he knew where they were headed, he would have told us. "Ronan, the Nova Corps sent a fleet to defend the prison."

"Well then, send Necrocraft to every corner of the quadrant." Ronan ordered, "Find the Orb. Any means, any price."

"And this place?" Nebula asked. Ronan answered, "The Nova cannot know what we're after. Cleanse it." With that the Unversed started killing everyone...

"Heads up, guys. We're inbound." Rocket said to everyone on the ship approached the place. Peter and Sora were amazed by the head shaped world, "Whoa."

What is it?" Drax wondered. Gamora answered, "It's called, 'Knowhere.' The severed head of an ancient celestial being. Be wary rodent heading in. There are no laws or regulations whatsoever here."

As Rocket tried to find a place to land, Gamora continued to explain, "Hundreds of years ago, a group of people called 'the Tivan' sent workers in to mine the organic matter within the skull. Bone, brain tissue, spinal fluid. They are all rare resources, highly valued in black markets across the galaxy. It's dangerous and illegal work, suitable for any outlaws."

"Well, I come from a planet of outlaws. Including Billy the Kid, Bonnie and Clyde, John Stamos." Peter smiled. Drax stated, "Sounds like a place which I would like to visit."

"Yeah, you should." Peter smirked. Sora replied, "Just be careful about it were trying to keep mutants a secret. I not sure how everyone's going to react to aliens." Peter raised an eyebrow, "Mutants?"

"Some say it's the next step of human evolution where people developed powers or look not normal for humans. I live in a school full of them." Sora explained. Peter grinned, "That's awesome."

While they were walking they saw homeless and hungry children. They asked, "Excuse me. Can you spare any units?"

"Get out of here." Peter said as they walked away, he warned the others, "Watch your wallets." Sora frowned, "Sorry, I don't have anything on me but I'll pray for you guys." Groot smiled and offered a little girl a flower he made. She took it as Groot walked off to join the others. Rocket asked, "Your buyer is in there?"

"We are to wait here for his representative." Gamora told everyone. Sora stated, as he witnessed a man getting kicked out, "I'll just wait out here. I'll let you know if anyone comes after us."

"And if it is Ronan?" Drax asked. Sora smiled, "You'll be the first to know. I promise." Drax smiled, "Thank you, spikey haired kid." Sora smiled, "You're welcome, Drax."

Sora, waited for the others to finish the deal. He felt like he had been waiting for hours. He saw Drax past him, said he needed to take car of something. He continued to wait for the rest his allies, until heard some one shout, "I WILL NO LONGER BE YOUR SLAVE!"

It was followed by an explosion, causing Sora to gasp, "What happened?!" Sora then witnessed a dog in an astronaut shut walk out followed by Peter and Gamora. She complained, "How could I think Tivan could contain whatever was within the Orb?!"

"What the heck happened, guys?! And where's Rocket and Groot?!" Sora asked. Rocket and Groot came running to them. Sora smiled, "Oh, there you are."

"What do you still have it for?!" Rocket demanded. Peter asked, "What are we going to do, leave it in there?!" Rocket pointed at the Orb, "I can't believe you had that thing in your purse!"

"You mean the whole explosion was caused by what's in there?!" Sora asked in shock. Peter glared at Rocket, "It's not a purse, it's a knapsack!" Sora turned to Gamora, "Okay, what's plan B? If your buyer can't protect it's power. What should we do with it?"

"We have to bring this to the Nova Corps. There's a chance they can contain it." Gamora replied. Sora smiled, "If their like the Police, then that sounds good to me." However, Rocket wasn't so thrilled with that idea, "We're wanted by the Nova Corps! Just give it to Ronan!"

"Are you outta your mind?! That's the last thing we want to do!" Sora argued. Peter agreed, "If we give to him, he'll destroy the galaxy." Rocket argued, "What are you, some saint all of a sudden? What has the galaxy ever done for you? Why would you wanna save it?!

"Because we live in it! And I actually have friends back home, who I would prefer alive!" Sora argued. Gamora told him, "Peter, listen to me. We cannot allow the stone to fall into Ronan's hands. We have to go back to your ship and deliver it to Nova."

"Right, right, okay. I think your right." Peter nodded, "Or we could just give it to somebody who's to going to arrest us, who's really nice for a whole lot of money." Gamora pulls the Orb away from him, "I think it's a really good balance between your points of view."

"You're despicable. Dishonorable. Faithless!" Gamora glared at him. Sora's nodded, "She's right. Now's not the time to become greedy!" Gamora told Sora, "Come, Sora. You maybe young but your the only sensible guy in this group." Sora nodded and followed her when they stopped as everyone's eyes widened, "Oh no..."

"Oh...that's what Drax meant by unfinished business he needed to take care of." Sora realized. Drax grinned as he held his knifes, "At last! I shall meet my foe and destroy him!"

"You called Ronan?!" Peter asked in disbelief. One of the ships landed. To make things worse Ronan wasn't they only one after them. A blue man and a group of thugs surrounded them, "Quill! Don't you move, boy! Don't you move! Get out of the way!"

"Is that Ronan?" Sora wondered. Quill shock his head, "No that's my boss. Who I might have stolen the Orb without his consent." Sora frowned, "What next? I find out the Unversed are her as well?"

Right on que, the monsters appeared to glare at Sora. He signed, "I had to ask." Sora summoned his Keyblade, "Gamora! Go! I'll cover you!"

"Good luck!" She told him as everyone made a run for it. Sora engaged the Unversed as Ronan walked up to Drax, "Ronan the Accuser!"

"You are the one who transmitted the message?!" Ronan asked. Drax replied, "You killed my wife! You killed my daughter!" Nebula noticed a ship leaving, "It is Gamora. She is escaping with the Orb."

She ordered the Unversed to go after Gamora and the flying Unversed went after her. Ronan turned to leave much to Drax's anger. He charged at Ronan but Ronan dodged his attack and ordered, "Nebula, retrieve the Orb." He blocked Drax's next attack and punched him down.

Drax got back up to fight but the battle was one sided. Ronan wasn't even seeing him as a threat. Considering he was owning Drax even without his universal weapon. Sora continued to fight the Unversed. One tried to attack him from behind but it was grabbed and slammed to the ground by Groot. Sora smiled, "Thanks Groot. Could you help me take down the rest?"

"I am Groot!" Groot nodded as helped him finish off the remaining Unversed. Ronan threw Drak to the ground by the throat, " I don't recall killing your family. I doubt I'll remember killing you, either." Ronan dragged his body and threw him yellow water to leave him to die. He turned to see Sora in his battle stance with Groot.

"A boy? Years of destruction, I have caused and the Keyblade choose a boy to fight me?!" Ronan glared, "I was mistaken. You are no threat to me." Just then a ship flew next to him, "Ronan. It is done."

"Your choice, boy. Fight me, or save your friend." Drax turned to leave. Sora didn't hesitate to run where Drax was. As, Ronan left with the Orb, Sora asked Groot, "Can you help me get him out of there?"

"I am Groot." He nodded. He then extended his arm to get him out of the water. Once he was out, Groot extended a finger and pushed to pump out the colored water so he could breath. Drax coughed, Sora smiled, "Nice work, Groot."

"Blasted idiot. They're all idiots!" Everyone turned to see Rocket come out of his borrowed ship. Sora wondered, "Quill just got himself captured and Ronan has the stone!" He then pointed an accusing finger at Drax, "None of this ever would have happened if you didn't try to single-handedly take on a frickin' army!"

"You're right." Drax agreed, he felt regret of his actions, " I was a fool. All the anger, all the rage, was just to cover my loss." Rocket mocked, "Oh boo-hoo-hoo. 'My wife and child are dead.'" Groot and Sora gasped, "Rocket!"

"I don't care if it's mean! Everybody's got dead people. It's no excuse to get everybody else dead along the way!" Rocket told Drax. He then turned, "Come on, Groot. Ronan has the Stone. The only chance we got is to get to the other side of the universe as fast as we can and maybe, just maybe, we'll be able to live full lives before that whack-job ever gets there."

"You can't just leave Peter and Gamora! And how can you just turn away on billions of lives?!" Sora exclaimed. Rocket replied, "Like this!" He turned to leave, Sora wanted to say something but Groot stopped him. Sora turned to Groot. The living tree gave Sora a look that said, 'I got this.' Sora nodded as Groot turned to Rocket, "I am Groot."

"Save them? But how?" Rocket asked as he turned around. Groot replied as he put his foot down, "I am Groot."

"I know they're the only friends that we ever had, but there's an army of Ravagers around them and there's only two of us!" Rocket pointed out. Drax stood up with a determined look, "Three."

"Make that four." Sora grinned. Rocket growled as he began to kick the ground, "YOUR! MAKING! ME! BEAT! UP! GRASS!"

Meanwhile on the Ronan's ship, the Dark Aster, Ronan was speaking to Xemnas through transmission. Ronan replied, "The orb is in my possession, as I promised." Korath, his second in command, showed the organization the orb in his hands.

"Bring it to me." Xemnas replied, "And all you have left to retrieve is the Keyblader.

"Yes. That was our agreement." Ronan said as he walked to Korath. "Bring you the orb and the Keyblade's chosen and you will destroy Xandar for me. However, now that I know it contains and Infinity Stone and the Keyblader is only a weak boy, I wonder what use I have for you?" Ronan took the orb for himself. Xemnas warned him, " Boy! I would reconsider your current course!"

Ronan ripped the orb open revealing the Infinity Stone. Korath's eyes widened, "Master! You cannot! The Organization are the most powerful group in the universe."

"Not anymore." Ronan said before grabbing the Infinity Stone. The Stone's power surged through Ronan's body making him scream in pain. However, he reached for his weapon and Korath handed it to him. Ronan placed the infinity stone on his weapon increasing it's power. Ronan glared at Xemnas "YOU CALL ME 'BOY'! I will unfurl 1000 years of Kree justice on Xandar, AND BURN IT TO IT'S CORE! Then Xemnas… I'm coming for you and your Organization."

"We shall see." He replied as the message ended. Nebula turned to him, "After Xandar, you're going to kill the group who liberated me from my father?"

"You dare to oppose me?" Ronan asked. Nebula replied, "They are no better than he is. If you kill them, I will help you destroy a thousand worlds."

"You betray me? Steal my money?" Yondu glared as Peter groaned from the last hit. Gamora exclaimed, "Stop it! Leave him alone!"

"When I picked you up as a kid, these boys wanted to eat you. They ain't never tasted Terran before. I saved your life!" Yondu scolded. Peter had enough of hearing that, "Oh, will you shut up about that? God! Ten years, you been throwing that in my face like it is some great thing, not eating me. Normal people don't even think about eating someone else!"

"Much less, that person having to be grateful for it!" Yondu pointed out. Peter argued, "You abducted me, man. You stole me from my home and from my family. You don't give a damn about your Terra!"

"You're scared because you're soft in here. Here, right here!" Yondu tapped on his heard. Gamora tried to reason with him, "Yondu listen to me! Ronan has something called an Infinity Stone."

"I know what he's got, girl." Yondu told her. Gamora replied, "Then you know we must get it back! He's gonna use it to wipe out Xandar. We have to warn them. Billions of people will perish."

"Is that what she's been filling your head with, boy? Sentiment?" Yondu asked as the whole crew laughed, one even exclaimed, "Eating away your brain like maggots!" Hindu silenced his crew as he whistled caused his weapon to float and point at Peter, "Sorry, boy. But a captain's gotta teach his men what happens to those to those what cross him. Captain's gotta teach stuff."

"If you kill me now, you are saying goodbye to the biggest score you ever made." Peter warned him. "The Stone?" Yondu assumed, "I hope you got something better than that, cause ain't nobody stealing from Ronan."

"We got a ringer." Peter smirked. Yondu was curious by this, "Is that right?"

"She knows everything there is to know about Ronan. His ships, his army. He's vulnerable." He explained as he guested to Gamora, "Hey what do you say Yondu, huh? Me and you taking down a mark side-by-side like the old days?" Yondu gave it a few seconds, before calling his weapon back. He laughed and soon everyone else joined him. "Let him go!" He ordered as he went to hug him, "You always did have a scrote boy! That's why I kept you as a young'un."

Just then the ship shook causing everyone to stop what they were doing. Outside, the Milao fired again at the huge ship doing very little damage. Everyone rushed to the deck, one of the pilots told Yondu, "Captian, the shot was non-damaging." Everyone looked outside at the Milao. Rocket's voice came through, "Attention, idiots. The lunatic on top of the craft is holding a Hadron Enforcer."

Peter could barely see Drax holding said weapon, "It's a weapon of my own design." Yondu could only say, "What the hell?"

"If you don't hand over or companions now, he's gonna tear your ship a new one. A very big new one!" Rocket threatened. Sora voice added, "For the record, I thought this was a horrible plan too."

"Leave the negotiations to the professionals, kid. I'm giving you till the count of five. 5...4...3..." Rocket counted. Peter quickly went for the intercom, "No! Wait, hold on! Rocket, it's me, for God's sakes! We figured it out! We're fine!"

"Oh, hey, Quill. What's going on?" Rocket greeted him...

"You called that 'figured it out?!' We're gonna rob the guys who just beat us senseless!" Rocket exclaimed. Peter argued, "Oh, you wanna talk about senseless? How about trying to save us by blowing us up?"

"That's what I told them." Sora agreed. Rocket replied, "We were only gonna blow you up if they didn't turn you over!"

"Well, how on earth are they going to turn us over when you gave them a count of five?!" Peter exclaimed. Rocket replied, "Well sorry. We didn't have time to work out the minutiae of the plan and it was better than the kid's idea! He wanted walk up and ask nicely!"

"At least, my bad idea had a better chance of Peter and Gamora making out alive." Sora replied. Rocket groaned, "This is what we get for acting altruistically."

"I am Groot." Groot said. Rocket nodded, "They are ungrateful."

"What's important now is we get the Ravagers' army to help us save Xandar." Gamora told them. Rocket pointed out, "So we can give the Stone to Yondu who's just gonna sell to somebody even worse?"

"We'll come to that road when we come across it. Right now, we need to stop Ronan and the Unversed." Sora replied. Rocket asked, "How?"

"I have a plan." Peter answered. Rocket looked to Peter, "You've got a plan?" Peter nodded, "Yes."

"First of all, you're copying me from when I said that I had a plan." Rocket replied. Sora shook his head, "No, he'snot. People say that all the time. It's not that unique of a thing to say."

"Secondly I don't even believe you have a plan." Rocket completely ignoring Sora. Peter replied, "I have... part of a plan!"

"What percentage of a plan do you have?" Drax asked. Gamora glared at him, "You don't get to ask questions after the nonsense you pulled on Knowhere." Drax glared back, "I just saved Quill!"

"We already established that destroying the ship I'm was on isn't saving me." Peter replied

"When did we establish that?" Drax asked not recalling this. Peter exclaimed, "Like three seconds ago!" Drax admitted, "I wasn't listening. I was thinking of something else." Gamora groaned as Sora replied, "It's okay, Drax. It happens to me too."

"She's right. You don't get an opinion." Rocket agreed before turning back to Peter, "What percentage?" He shrugged, "I don't know. Twelve percent."

"Twelve percent?" Rocket repeated before bursting out laughing. Peter commented, "That's a fake laugh."

"It's real!" Rocket exclaimed. Peter denied it, "Totally fake." Peter said.

"That is the most real, authentic, hysterical laugh of my entire life because that is not a plan." Rocket argued. Gamora nodded, "It's barely a concept."

"You're taking their side?" Peter asked in surprise. Sora defended him, "It's a better plan I can come up with. I usually leave the planning to Scott." Groot nodded, "I am Groot."

"So what if it's better than eleven percent. What the hell does that have to do with anything?" Rocket continued to complain. Peter was at least glad the Groot and Sora was on his side of all of this, "Thank you, Sora and Groot. Thank you. See Sora and Groot's the only ones of you who has a clue."

Right as he said that Groot grew a leaf from himself and ate it making Peter groan, "Guys. Come on. Yondu is gonna be here in two seconds. He expects us to hear this big plan of ours. I need your help. I… Look around us. You know what I see? Losers."

"Losers? I have you know I never lost a game outdoor or indoors in my life!" Sora argued. Peter Corrected "I mean, like, folks who have lost stuff."

"Oh...that makes a lot more sense. Please continue." Sora stated. Peter did so, "And we have. Man, we have. All of us. Our homes, our families, normal lives, memories, and, usually, life takes more than it gives. But not today. Today, it's given us something. It had given us a chance."

"To do what?" Drax wondered. Peter answered, "To give a shit. For once. Not run away. I, for one, am not gonna stand by and watch as Ronan wipes out billions of innocent lives."

"But, Quill, stopping Ronan, it's impossible. You're asking us to die." Rocket stated. Peter paused before signing, "Yeah, I guess I am." Peter couldn't look at their faces until Gamora spoke up, "Quill." Peter turned to her. "I have lived most my life surrounded by my enemies."

"I will be grateful to die among my friends." She said as she stood up. Drax then stood up as well, "You're an honorable man Quill. I will fight beside you. And in the end, I will see my wife and daughter again."

"You know I'm with you, Peter. I was always taught to dl what's right no matter what. And besides, I'm an X-Man. This is what we do. Fight for what we believe in." Sora smiled as he stood up. Groot joined him, "I am Groot."

Everyone turned to Rocket, Sora asked, "So, Rocket? What'd you say?" Rocket shrugged as he stood up too, "Ah, what the hell. I don't got that long a lifespan anyway."

"Now I'm standing. Y'all happy? We're all standing up now. Bunch of jackasses standing in a circle." Rocket stated. Peter played music as they prepared for battle. Gamora explained the plan to the Ravagers, "The stone reacts to anything organic. The bigger the target, the bigger the power surge."

"All Ronan's got to do is touch the stone to the planet's surface and zap! All plants, animals, Nova Corps…" Peter explained. Gamora concluded, "Everything will die."

"So, Ronan does not make the surface." Peter told them, "Rocket will lead a team to blow a hole in the Dark Aster's starboard hole. Then, our craft and Yondu's will enter."

"Won't there be hundreds of those monsters inside? No of our weapons seemed to have an effect on them." Asked one of the Ravagers. Peter nodded, "That where Sora comes in. His Keyblade is the only thing that can destroy them and give the strength to anyone near him so Rocket had made a device to explained that power so we have a better chance against them."

Sora showed them the tiny device attached to the Keyblade. This put them in relief. One even lightly punched Drax, who glared at the one who did so causing him to frown. Gamora continued, "Once they know we're in board, Ronan will isolate himself behind impenetrable security doors on deck, which I can disable by dismantling the power source."

"We'll make it to the flight deck and I'll use the Hadron Enforcer to kill Ronan." Peter explained followed by Gamora, "Once Ronan is dead, we will retrieve the stone. Use these devices to contain it. If you touch it, it will kill you."

The Ravagers nodded. None of them want to kill because they touched the stone. Peter added, "I'll contact one of the Nova officers who arrested us. Hopefully they'll believe we're there to help."

"There's one more thing we need to complete the plan." Rocket told everyone. Sora raised an eyebrow, "Really? I thought we got everything?"

"No, it's the most important part of the plan. That guy's eye." Rocket guested to an alien with a robot eye. Sora groaned, "Really? This again?"

"No! No, we don't! No, we don't need that guy's eye!" Peter exclaimed. Rocket chuckled, "No, seriously I need it! It's important to me."

Once everyone was suited up and prepared...the went to their ships and they all agreed on one thing... This would be the biggest battle of their lives...

"Nova Prime. I received a transmission from one of the Ravagers." Nova officer Dey told his boss, "He says Ronan's in possession of something called an 'Infinity Stone' and he's heading towards Xandar."

Nova Prime was horrified by this new information, "Good God." However, one of the Nova officers didn't believe this, "It's a trick, he's a criminal."

"Did he say why we should believe him?" Nova Prime asked. Officer Dey nodded, "He said his crew we arrested escaped from prison, so he had no other reason to risk coming to Xandar to help. He also added they had a Keyblade Master with him."

"The Keyblade has returned?" She gasped, "Did he say anything else?" The Officer was hesitant at first but he replied, "He says that he's an… 'A-hole.' But he's not and I'm quoting him here, '100% a dick.'"

"Do you believe him?" Nova Prime asked. He answered, "I don't know that I believe anyone is 100% a dick, ma'am."

"I mean, do you believe that he is here to help?" She signed. Dye replied after a few seconds of thinking, "Yeah."

Above the world's atmosphere, the Dark Aster approached the planet. Ronan sat in his chair grinning. At last, he would have his revenge. However, his smirked didn't last when Nebula ran up to him, "A fleet approaches. There appear to be Ravagers."

The Ravager fleet was flying towards the enemy ship. Sora whistled, "Guess that must be Ronan's ship." Yondu gave the ordered, "Fire!" The warships fired two balls of energy at Ronan's ship. The balls exploded and formed a large energy cover in front of the ship which blinded the whole ship, "Cover it down! Submerge!"

As the fighters went under Ronan's, Sora smirked, "I feel like I'm in one of those Independence Day movies." Peter exclaimed, "Movies?! They made a sequel?!"

"Yeah, just recently!" Sora replied. Peter grinned, "If we live through this, remind me to return to Earth to see it! Alright Rocket! Your move!" Rocket's team began firing at part of the warship, trying to make an hole for Peter and Yondu to enter.

Just the cover disappeared and Nebula saw the fleet flying under the Dark Aster. "They're beneath us! Unversed, search and destroy!"

Just then monster themed ships came to attack the Ravagers. One of the Ravagers returned fire and hoped the device on Sora's Keyblade worked. When the lasers hit, the Unversed exploded. They laughed, "Target destroyed!"

"You hear that, Rocket! Your device worked!" Sora beamed. Rocket grinned, "Was there any doubt?"

Meanwhile on the city, the Nova Corps were watching the battle from below. Nova Prime gave the order, "Evacuate the city! Our priority is to get our people away from the battle." As the battle raged on Nebula had enough of this, "Forward thrusts! Now!" The engines started to work hard as the ship headed to the ground much faster. Sora began to worry, "Uh, Rocket? Your team might want to hurry!"

As Rocket's team continued to try to make an entrance, they continued to dodge lasers from Unversed and explosions but it seemed to be much more difficult.

"Come on!" One of the Ravagers exclaimed as Rocket's team continued to fire but finally they were successful. Rocket exclaimed, "Quill! Yondu! Now!"

With that they made their move, heading to Ronan's ship and destroy many of the Unversed as they could. However, one of them was able to lay a good hit on Yondu's ship.

"Ah hell!" Yondu exclaimed. "I'm going down Quill! No more games for me boy! I'll see you at the end of this!" Peter turned to his new friends, "Hang on, guys. This could turn ugly." Peter continued to fly towards Ronan's war ship however, they're were starting to be too many Unversed. Gamora exclaimed, "We'll never make it up there."

Just then an army of Nova Corps fighters joined it the battle, one of them made contact to Peter's ship, ""Peter Quill. This is Denarian Saal of the Nova Corps. For the record, I advised against trusting you here."

"They got my 'dick' message!" Peter beamed. Saal signed, "Prove me wrong."

Peter ship boosted towards the Dark Aster thanks to the help of the Nova Corps they were able to get through. This ship was barely able to get through the hole. The ship got in and was sliding along the floor causing sparks. Everyone was holding on to their seats except Drax, who just laughed, "Yes!"

Eventually, the ship manged to stop and Drax continued to laugh, "Yes!"

Gamora looked at Peter and smiled, "We're just like Kevin Bacon."

"The starboard kern has been breached! We have been boarded!" Nebula exclaimed. Ronan didn't seem to care, "Continue our approach."

"But the Nova Corps have engaged." Nebula argued. Ronan explained, "None of that will matter once we reach the surface."

Nebula turned around and ordered, "Seal security doors now!" She marched her way down, she was going to deal with these intruders...personally...

Back with the heroes , they explores the Dark Aster seeing how it lived up to the name because there were no lights in the room. Dark stated, "I can barely see." Sora mentioned, "All this technology and the don't bother to add a lightswitch." Goot smiled and he grew plants that glowed in dark. He expanded it all over the place. Everyone was smiling at Goot's work. Drax wondered, "When did you learn to do that?"

"I'm pretty sure the answer is 'I am Groot.'" Peter joked. Gamora lead the way, "The flight deck is 300 meters this way." As they followed, Drax told the others, "I want you all to know that I am grateful for your acceptance after my blunders. It is pleasing to once again have friends. You, Quill, are my friend."

"Thanks." Peter replied. Drax continued, "You, Keyblade Master, are my friend." Sora smiled, "Thanks, Drax. You're my friend, too."

"This dumb tree, he is my friend." Drax added. Groot smiled as Drax concluded, "And this green whore, she, too…"

"Oh you must stop!" She cut him off. Just then Nebula entered the room, "Gamora. Look at what you have done!"

"Who's that?" Sora whispered. Gamora repiled, "Nebula. My sister. Let me handle this." Sora nodded as Gamora's sister continued to glare at her, "You've always been so weak. You stupid, traitorous…" She was cut off when she was blasted away. Everyone turned to the man who shot her...which was Drax. He said in response, "Nobody talks to my friend like that."

Gamora actually smiled at that, "Head to the flight deck. I'll shut down the power to the security doors." Everyone nodded as they split up from Gamora. As they continued to make their way to where Ronan was they were cut off by Korath and the Unversed. Korath glared at Peter, "Star-Lord."

"Finally." He smirked. Sora whispered, "Code name?"

"Yeah, no ones every said it till, now." Peter said as they charged at the enemy. As Sora destroyed the Unversed, he muttered, "I have got to get a code name."

Peter and Korath engaged each other as Drax and Groot helped Sora out with the Unversed. They were doing pretty were, one of them managed to hit Sora causing him to wince. Groot noticed this a passed Sora a potion, "I am Groot!"

Sora injuries were heal instantly, "Thanks!"

Korath managed to knock Peter to the ground and prepared to finish him, "You thief!"

Drax and Sora saw this and Sora throw his Keyblade knocking the gun out of his as Drax went to engage the villain. As, Star-Lord got back on his feet he helped Sora and Groot defeat the remaining Unversed. Draw soon got the upper hand against Korath as he slammed him against a wall before grabbing the metal on his head, "Finger to the throat... means death!"

Drax said and ripped the metal off of him killing him. He looked to his friends as he explained, "It is a metaphor."

"Hm. Sorta." Peter laughed nervously. Just then more Unversed came rushing in. Sora groaned, "Oh, c'mon!"

Groot stretched his arm out making it go through one row of monsters before slamming it against the other Unversed as he roared at them. He continued to do so until they all faded away. He turned to the his friends and gave them a smile. Sora grinned, "Nice work, Groot!"

Meanwhile, Ronan was starting to get annoyed. Vengeance seemed so close and yet so far. The Nova Corps used there ships as a ship to slow down his decent towards the planet. He tried ordering the Unversed to crashed into the city below hoping to call off some of the ships. However, not only did they kept their shield up but the Ravangers we're destroying the Unversed before they could reach they city. Ronan had finally had enough, "Xandar! You stand accused. Your wretched peace treaty will not save you now. It is the tinder on which you burn!"

He used his weapon to fire beam of power from the infinity stone killing the Nova polits that stood in his way. Their shield couldn't withstand that kind of power. Saal's ship was begging crush him. He called up for help, "Rocket!"

"Hold on, Saal! Just…" Rocket exclaimed. However, he was too late. Saal and the other Nova Corps were dead. Nothing was stopping Ronan's ship now.

"Quill, you guys gotta hurry. The city's been evacuated but were getting our asses kicked out here." Rocket warned them. Sora eyes widened as he realized, "We're running out of time."

"Gamora hasn't opened the door!" Peter exclaimed slamming his hands against the door to the room Ronan stood. Gamora made contact with them, "We have a problem. My sister was down but not out. I managed to defeat her but she sabotage the door lock. I won't be able to unlock it... At least...not this way..."

"You have an idea?" Sora assumed. Gamora replied, "I do. Sora, your Keyblade. It can open any lock. This one including. Only you can open it now."

"Okay...it looks some much different than a school door or locker but I'll try." Sora nodded. Peter looked to him, "You can do this."

"We believe in you." Drax agreed. Groot nodded, "I am Groot."

Sora nodded as he pointed his Keyblade at the door as Peter prepared the weapon. Like before, light swirled around the Keyblade before shooting a beam of light at the door. The door to the room was no unlocked and opened up for them. The group now stood in front of Ronan as he turned to face them. Peter the fired hadron enforcer and hit Ronan head on causing a massive explosion.

"You did it!" Drax exclaimed. Sora beamed, "Yeah, that was almost too easy..."

However, when the dust settled, Ronan was still standing, completely unharmed. In response, he pointed his weapon at the group as the shockwave for it hit them. Sora and Drax quickly got back on their feet, he was the first to reach Ronan. However, like before, he was no match for Ronan. He took him by the throat and told him, "I was mistaken. I do remember your family. Their screams were pitiful. I…"

He was cut off was Sora's Keyblade slammed into his face causing him to stumble back. His eyes widened, that actually hurt him. Sora swung again as the two managed to engage each other. Ronan was strong and powerful but Sora was trained but the best there is at what he does. Sora was able to block of Ronan attacks and struck at any openings he saw. Even with the infinity stone, Sora's Keyblade withstood the attack. Ronan glared, "I was mistaken about you too, boy. You're stronger than I thought. However, you not going to stop me... In mere moments, my ship will reach the ground and all have to do is strike and you along with the rest of the planet will fall."

"You right, I can't defeat you all by myself..." Sora groaned causing Ronan to smirk until Sora started smirking, "But we can. Now, Rocket!" Sora pushed him off him and ran. Ronan turned to see Rocket flying right at him. His ship slammed into Ronan which caused explosion. The explosion was big enough to destroy the entire ship. It was beginning to fall apart as it fell to the planet.

With Rocket and Drax wounded, Peter and Gamora to grab them to rejoin the others. Sora wondered, "Um...what's the plan for making out of here alive." Groot knew they didn't have time to escape...but they was one chance his friends could live. He grew many branches around him and the group. The branches formed a large chrysalis encasing everyone inside. Rocket's eyes widened, he knew exactly what his best friend was doing. He shook his head, "No. You can't. You'll die. Why are you doing this? Why?"

Groot wiped the tear from Rocket's eye as he smiled at him, "We… Are… Groot."

Then the ship crashed on the planet's surface. After groaning Sora and the others got back on their feet. Sora frowned, they were alive but it cost Groot's life. He had sacrificed his life for theirs. Sora began praying for Groot, as tears rolled down. He had never had to watch any of his friends die before. The other heroes were also moroning Groot's death. Rocket was taking it the worst and regretted, "I called him an idiot."

The only good thing from all this is, the planet was safe, Ronan was dead, with the stone destroyed... Untill everyone's eyes widened in both anger and horror...Ronan was still alive and he still had the infinity stone. Sora exclaimed, "How are you still alive?!"

"You killed Groot!" Rocket exclaimed as he charged at Ronan, wanting to tear him apart. However, Ronan sent another shockwave that push Rocket away. He looked to the people that witnessed the whole thing, "Behold! Your 'Guardians of the Galaxy!' What fruit have they wrought?! Only that my father and his father shall finally know vengeance. People of Xandar. The time has come to rejoice! And renounce your paltry gods!"

He raised his weapon in the air ready to strike Xandar with the stone's power. "Your salvation is at hand!" He then spoke in a native language and was about to destroy the planet when Peter began to sing, "Oooh child things are gonna get easier."

Everyone stared at Peter began to dance as he sang, "Oooh child things will be brighter."

"Listen to these words." Peter said as he pulled off amazing dance moves and sang, "Oooh child, things are gonna get easier. Oooh child things will be brighter."

"Now bring it down hard!" He exclaimed as he began to dance faster. "Someday…Pull it together…"

"What are you doing?" Ronan asked completely confused at what was happening. Peter smiled, "Dance-off bro, me and you." He continued to dance when he gestured to Gamora, "Gamora."

He offered her a dance, who just shook her head no. "Settled! I'll take it back." Peter said dancing again. Sora eyes widened realizing what Peter was actually doing joined in. Pater grinned, "Yeah! Go, Sora!"

Now with Peter and Sora dancing only confused Ronan even more, "What are you doing?" He asked angrily.

"We're distracting you, you big turd blossom." Peter explained as he and Sora finished their dance. With Ronan distracted, Rocket was able to repair the weapon they planned to kill Ronan with and Drax fired at his Universal Weapon, destroying it and freed the Infinity stone. Peter and Ronan reach out for it but Peter was able to catch it first.

"NOOO!" Gamora exclaimed as he caught the stone. Star Lord whole body was starting to overflow with the stone's power and created purple tornado around the heroes. Gamora knows Peter couldn't handle that kind of power, reach her hand out to him, "Peter! Take my hand!"

However, it wasn't Gamora he saw. Instead he saw his dying mother reaching out to him in her death bed, "Take my hand, Peter."

"Mom?" His eyes widend. Gamora continued to reach out for him, "Take my hand!" Peter did something he should have done along time ago, took her hand. The power now flowed the Gamora's body causing her to scream in pain. Refusing to see any more of his die, Sora took Gamora's hand causing the power to flow through him as well.

Sora groaned in pain as well. He never felt this much pain, he knew if it wasn't for Peter and Gamora, he'd be in much worse pain. However, it lessened when Drax put his hand on Sora's shoulder and Rocket held Drax's hand.

Once the pain subsided, the all glared at Ronan, who's eyes widened in horror, "You're mortal! How?!"

"You said it yourself, bitch." Peter replied, "We're the Guardians of the Galaxy."

Ronan charged at them with anger and rage but Star Lord released the Stones power at Ronan. With Ronan alone and nothing he could use to contain it's power, he was destroyed in a matter of seconds. Drax then took out the container and contained the stone causing the pain to go away and the storm stopped.

Everyone took breaths of relief, Sora smiled, "We did it." Yondu then walked to them with his men, "Well, well, well. Quite the light 't this sweet. But you got some business to attend to before all the nookie-nookie starts."

"Peter, you can't. Peter." Gamora told Quill. Peter looked to Yondu, "You gotta reconsider this Yondu. I don't know who you're selling this to, but the only way the universe can survive is if you give it to the Nova Corps."

"I may be as pretty as an angel, but I sure is hell ain't one. Hand it over son." Yondu replied reaching his hand out. Peter looked to Sora and they grinned a little. They both had the same idea, they planned out earlier, before turning back to Yondu and gave the container to him. As Yondu walked away, Peter warned him, "Yondu. Do not open that Orb. You know that right? You've seen what it does to people."

Yondu laughed as he left the planet, "Yeah. Quill turned out okay."

"It's probably good we didn't deliver him to his dad like we was hired to do." Said a crew memeber. Yondu nodded, "Yeah, that guy was a jackass."

Once they were gone Peter and Sora began laughing, "I can't believe he felt for it." Peter nodded, "He's gonna be so ticked when he realizes I switched out the orb on him."

Gamora hugged Quill when she saw he still had the real Orb in his hands with the stone still inside. She told him, "You know he's going to kill you, Peter."

"Oh, I know. But he was the only family I had." Peter nodded. Sora shook his head, "No, you haven't, Peter. Look, just like I have. You managed to find your own family."

Everyone smiled for few moments, until they frowned as they realized one of them was going to be there to celebrate. Rocket frowned as he held on to one of Groot's branches. Drax sat by him and pet him for comfort. Sora looked to the branch that Rocket was holding and smiled, "We're going to need some planting tools." Rocket started at him confused until he noticed the branch was actually a very tiny Groot still breathing.

Everyone signed in relief and smiled. Groot was going to be okay...

"Why would you even know this?" Peter asked as the observed his own body on the hologram screen. Officer Dey explained, "When we arrested you we noticed an anomaly in your nervous system so we had it checked out."

"I'm not Terran?" He asked in shock. Sora rasied an eyebrow, "What's Terran?"

"Human." Peter explained. Nova Prime explaned, "Your half Terran. Your mother was of Earth. Your father well, he is something very ancient we've never seen here before."

"That could be why you were able to hold the stone for as long as you did." Gamora assumed. Sora beamed, "That and the power of friendship."

"Your friends have arrived." She replied as Rocket, Drax, and a potted Groot joined them. Nova prime smiled, "On behalf of the Nova Corps. We'd like to express our profound gratitude for your help in saving Xandar. If you will follow Denarian Dey, he has something to show you."

"Thank you Nova Prime." Peter said and the group followed Dey. Sora was about to follow them when he was stopped by Nova Prime. She smiled, "So, your the new Keyblade Master I've been told about. Truth be told, I thought you'd be older."

"I get that allot." Sora smiled but then frowned, "Sorry about the whole prison break earlier."

"If you hadn't, Ronan would have gotten the stone much sooner and the planet would be gone by now. However, I'd advise you don't do it again." She replied. Sora nodded, "Don't worry, I'll behave. So... how will I get home? I'll probably be grounded for being gone for days but the X-Men are my family."

"In a few moments, a Keyhole will be revealed. It's leads to the very heart of our world. You were sent here because your Keyblade could sense the darkness of this world and helped you find allies to help save it. Once you've locked the Keyhole, the light will lead you back home on Terra."

"Cool except I'm not from Terra. I'm from Earth." Sora stated causing the Nova prime to laugh, "Same thing." Sora smiled to join the others. Gamora walked up to Drax, "Your wife and child shall rest well knowing you have avenged them."

"Yes. Of course Ronan was only a puppet. It's really Xemnas I need to kill." Drax told her. She signed, she had a feeling some things were never going to change. Once everyone was outside, they saw a ship that looked a lot like the Milano. Better than it was before. Nova officer Dey explained, "We tried to keep it as close to the original as possible. Salvaged as much as we could."

"Wow. I…" Peter was speechless, "Thank you." Dey smiled, "I have a family. They're alive because of you."

Everyone smiled. They were glad they could help. Dey continued, "Your criminal records have also been expunged. However, I have to warn you against breaking any laws in the future."

"Question. What if I see something that I want to take and it belongs to someone else?" Rocket asked. Dey replied, "Well... you will be arrested."

"But what if I want it more than the person who has it?" Rocket asked. The Nova officer replied, "Still illegal."

"That doesn't follow., No I want it more, sir, you understand." Rocket as he laughed as Sora and Gamora joined him. Rocket turned to them "What are you two laughing at? What I can't have a discussion with this gentleman?"

Drax wondered, "What if someone does something irksome and I decide to remove his spine?" Deny was shocked by this, "That's… That's actually murder. One of the worst crimes of all. So… also illegal."

Drax thought to himself, "Interesting..." Peter reassured him, "They'll be fine, Dey. I'm going to keep an eye on them." Deny smirked and raised an eyebrow, "You?"

Peter gave it a moment before responding, "Yeah, me." Sora smiled, "Don't worry, Dey. I have have feeling like this is going to be the start of something great."

Sora smiled as he and the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy walked off...

Meanwhile, Yondu was with the Ravagers who was celebrating their victory against Ronan. However, Yondu knew better that Quill would give him the stone that willingly. He opened it up and saw not the stone but a troll toy. Yondu smiled. He was proud of that boy.

In the Nova Headquarters, Nova Prime sealed away the containment unit with the stone inside. Hopefully, never to be seen again.

Dey returned home from work and he went hugged his wife and children.

"So, it would appear we won't be getting that Infinity Stone after all." IV frowned, "A pity. I wanted to experiment with the former Titian's stone when this was over with."

"Except that wasn't the gamble wasn't it." X stated as he organized his stack of cards, "You wanted to see how well the boy would fair against the Stone. You were rooting for the Keyblade chosen all along."

"Indeed." Xemnas stated, "And I've say he passed with flying colors."

"So, then if he is ready, then why not sent the Heartless after him already?" VII asked. II replied, "Isn't obvious. In this Organization, there supposed to be thirteen of us. We're one short."

"So... we jest sit around and wait to recruit, number XIII. Then we all jump in to make our own Kingdom Hearts. Well, that means more break time for me." IX signed. VIII replied, "You never do any of your assignments anyways."

"However, he is not wrong. Once our thirteenth member arrives, our time will come and the Keyblade Master will face the true threat to the worlds. Until then, we wait and watch our hero of the Keyblade." Xemnas stated.

Sora smiled knowing everything was going to be alright. Peter turned to Sora, "Hey, Sora? Want to join us? You helped found this team after all?"

"I appreciate the offer, Peter...but I should return home. I have my own family I need to return too. But if you guys ever in a jam, I'll be there." Sora replied. Peter grinned, "There's a girl there too? Isn't there?"

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Sora blushed. Peter smiled, "Don't pretend that written phone number isn't there."

Sora covered Kairi's phone number with his other hand as he blushed. Peter grinned, "Be a better guy than I've ever been with girls, Sora. Don't lose her."

Gamora smiled, "Take care, Sora."

"We shall aid you and your friends if you ever need help." Drax stated. Rocket replied, "Cause you're our friend, ki... I mean, Sora."

"I am Groot." Groot squeaked. Sora smiled, "Goodbye, may God be with you." Just then a Keyhole appeared. Sora summoned his Keyblade and with a beam of light it locked shut and a bright light came from it and bathed Sora in it's light. When the light disappeared, so did Sora.

Peter smiled, "We'll see him again."

"So, what should we do next? Something good? Something bad? A bit of both?" Peter asked. Gamora smiled, "We'll follow your lead, Star-Lord."

"Bit of both." Quill smiled.

As Sora opened his eyes, he smiled he was home. He frowned, "How long has it been since I've been gone." He don't think Mr. Logan would allow him any danger room sessions for awhile. Just then a voice stated, "Don't worry. You've only been gone for a few minutes."

"Huh?" Sora turned to see a clocked old man. He smiled at them, "Don't worry. I'm a traveler, like you."

"Okay...but I've been gone for days...How?" Sora asked. He replied, "Your Keyblade, it slows down time when you leave your home world, that way Keybladers don't miss much of their home. However, if you traveled any other way. It would have gone as long as you've be gone."

"How do you know about all this...just...who are you?" Sora asked. The old man removed his hold and knelt to his height, "Just call me Ben. I'll tell you everything for another time but for now, return home. You don't want to keep your friends waiting."

Sora nodded as he ran off. Ben smiled as he continued his own way home.

Sora entered the door to them mansion, Scott walked up to greet him, "Hey, man. How was the movie?"

"Huh? Oh, it was good." Sora replied. Jean walked up now, "Sora. You're a mess. What happened?"

"It's a long story but...short version... I was actually on another world with aliens and my new friends broke out of an alien prison and then..." Jean and Scott rolled their eyes. Sora must have dazed off after the movies and dreamt of all of this. Jean then noticed something, "Huh? Sora? Is that a phone number?"

"Huh?" Sora remembered and blushed, "N-no, it's not."

"No way! See actually gave you her phone number!" Jean smiled. Scott joined in, "Way to go, Sora!"

"What happened?" Kitty ran in. Jean explained, "He actually got Kairi's phone number!"

"Really?! All right, Sora!" Kitty beamed. Sora blushed, "C'mon, she was just want to check up on me." Kurt ported in causing Kitty to yelp. Kurt smiled, "Of coarse does...because she's into you too."

"All right everyone, let's give the boy some room. Sora needs to get add the number to his iphone and get cleaned up because Logan's testing the upgrades to the Danger Room tonight!"

"It's today! Alright!" Sora beamed. Sora ran to get cleaned off...today couldn't be ruined now.

Next time: Rouge Recruit

Xavier had detected another mutant on Cerebro. However, Mystique herself is after the girl too and she's not alone. She and Vanitas will do anything to get her out of the X-Men's hands. Plus, Sora and the X-Men confront Vanitas for the first time. Can they stop this Masked Boy and recruit the rouge mutant teenage girl. Found out next time...

Few things, first you must be wondering why I made Peter Quill younger in here. Well, let's just say Lance won't be the only one trying to win Kitty's heart. ;) Also, I had the Organization kill off Thanos because he's not the big villain this. Thirdly, we won't see much of the Organization until much later. Vanitas and Magento will be the main villain of this season. Finally, Ben's appearance. Care to guess which movie he's from. Anyways, I hoped you enjoyed the chapter. Leave a review of your thoughts and don't forget to follow and fav if you haven't already. See you next time.
