A/N: Sylvia Udonta is portrayed by Mila Kunis.
It was quiet in Space.. It wasn't that normally but it's space.. What do you expect? There were normally lots of Space ships traveling through different planets.. But it was oddly quiet today.
The Milano was flying very fast, the music was blasting loudly through the speakers and the general aura of the ship was great.
Peter Quill was mouthing the lyrics of his latest song, Rubberband Man from the Zune he had and dancing in his seat. Drax had fallen asleep in his seat, snores escaping from him. Mantis was just listening but alert to the area. Gamora was singing the lyrics while moving her head and hand to the beat.. She learned to love to listen to music from Quill and her own girlfriend.
Groot was busy playing his portable game while Rocket was piloting through the cosmos. He looked down and saw Sylvia was singing along to the song also, clearly relaxed about everything.
Rocket couldn't help but smile a bit, it was good having Sylvia on the ship.. It felt like he had gained a sister when she joined.. He knew Sylvia had made Gamora happier ever since they started a relationship after the events of Ego and Yondu's death and.. Anthea's death as well.
Life without Anthea was hard at first.. Peter wasn't able to function at all without her and it caused him to become unstable, being reckless in missions.. It wasn't until he met a mysterious figure one day.. One that had offered him a way to forget Anthea.. His love and memory of her, that once he forgot her.. He would have a one percent chance to remember her. He took that deal and forgot about her, later that night meeting and falling in love with a woman from Xander.. Auber.
Sylvia was upset at Peter at first.. But then she understood him, she knew deep inside.. She couldn't lose Peter like she lost Yondu, her father.. And Anthea, her cousin.
The Guardians always kept Anthea's memory alive.. For the sake of each other and Groot's.. They always talked about her when Peter wasn't around at first and they would recall their own memories with her. It wasn't until one day, Peter had walked in on them talking about Anthea and he asked questions on who she was.. It wasn't until Gamora told Peter about how she was Sylvia's cousin and it was their own personal mission to find her.
Peter with a smile said that he would love to find Anthea.. To reunite Sylvia with her cousin and for her to join the guardians.. The more the better huh?
"Remind me why we're doing this again?" Rocket questioned, yawning a bit.. Clearly they were all sleeping until Sylvia heard a lot of beeping from her and Gamora's room and stumbled towards the main room.. Waking up everyone once she heard the distress signal.. It made Sylvia frown.. She knew that Asgard existed.. But why were they on a ship? Where were they going?
"It's a distress signal Rocket, someone could be dying" Gamora said, Sylvia looking down at her girlfriend with a soft smile "We're going to get them.. At least make sure they're okay" Sylvia promised and Rocket narrowed his eyes and Sylvia looked back at Groot who was playing on his game
"Groot, I expect you to finish up soon and put it away.. We've talked about this" Sylvia called towards him and Groot was silent at first before making an annoyed sound and Sylvia couldn't help but roll her eyes.
After Anthea died and years had gone by.. Groot had rebelled a lot. Mostly because of Anthea gone. He wasn't much of a fan of Quill because of him forgetting her and getting a new girlfriend.. Oh he was pissed about that. Sylvia would have to sit Groot down and carefully explain that Peter is still part of the family.. No matter what stupid things he does.
"I get it.. By why are we doing it?" Rocket asked and Sylvia narrowed her eyes "We're the Guardians of the Galaxy.. We gotta live up to our name"
"We're nice.. But also the person may give us some good money for this" Peter said looking at Rocket and Gamora raised a finger "Which isn't the point"
"It isn't the point" Peter agreed and Sylvia narrowed her eyes "Peter Jason Quill, you're a horrible liar"
"Well what if they don't have the money?" Rocket asked and Drax looked at his teammates "We can just take his ship then"
"B-b-b-bingo!" Peter said and Rocket cheered "All right!"
Sylvia and Gamora both gave Peter a look, mostly Sylvia. Peter looked at her and shook his head, telling her that he didn't care about the money.
Sylvia and Peter had gotten closer after the events of Ego. Their love for her father and Peter's adopted father Yondu was strong and something that brought them closer together. It was Peter who gave Gamora a talk (Even if he was scared that Gamora would be able to chop his head off) to take care of his adopted sister. Gamora smiled softly and told him that she cared about Sylvia a lot.. She wouldn't do anything to hurt her.
"We are arriving" Mantis said softly. Peter looked forward as he began piloting and he sighed "Alright Guardians this could be very dangerous.. So put your mean faces on" He said and the guardians were tense.. Sylvia couldn't help but chuckle a bit when she saw Mantis' game face.
Peter and Sylvia heard the beeps from Groot's gaming device and Sylvia sighed. Peter looked somewhat annoyed and he turned back "Groot, Sylvia told you to put that thing away. I'm not going to tell you again" He said and the beeping went on and he looked back
"Groot" Peter said and Groot narrowed his eyes "I am Groot" He said in a mocking tone towards Peter and everyone nearly gasped on the ship
"Groot!" Sylvia said while Rocket said "Language!"
"You got some acorns on you kid" Peter narrowed his eyes and he muttered "It's like one day you just became this way"
Sylvia couldn't help but look down at that. Sylvia knew that the day Anthea died, Groot wouldn't stop crying when he was a baby.. He took Anthea's death the hardest. It took him a while to bounce back from it, but he was rebelling now.. If Anthea was around, he may have been different.. But Groot and Sylvia were close, she was trying the best she could to raise him along with the others.
"Ever since you got a little sap, you're a total D-hole. Now, keep it up and I'm gonna smash that thing to pieces!" Rocket growled at Groot who looked back at Rocket with a smirk.. He knew that Rocket wouldn't do it.. He knew just well.
The Milano went through a space jump, now entering where the distress signal was first placed. Sylvia and the others looked in horror of the scene in front of them.
The ship that the distress signal was sent from.. Was completely destroyed. Bodies were everywhere, floating around along with parts of the ship
"What happened?" Mantis said and Sylvia couldn't help but have tears in her eyes as she shook her head "Oh my god.. They're dead.." She whispered and Gamora looked at her girlfriend
"Syl.." She whispered and Sylvia shook her head and sighed "I'm fine.. I'm fine" She whispered and she could hear Peter next to her "Oh my god"
The Guardians looked in horror of the scene in front of them, Sylvia couldn't help but close her eyes when she heard the thuds on the front window and saw that the bodies were literally hitting the ship.
"Looks like we're not getting paid" Rocket muttered and Sylvia was about to open her mouth to tell him to shut up until she opened her eyes to see a body coming towards the ship, hitting the window hard.
"Oh!" Sylvia said and everyone gasped out loud
"Ew! Wipers! Wipers! Get it off!" Rocket said waving his hand, Sylvia looking closely at the body.. Until one eye opened and everyone jumped back in their seats
"Gamora.. Drax, get his body in here.. He's alive" Peter said and quickly everyone unbuckled from their seats, springing into action to save the last Asgardian.
They managed to get him on the ship, laying him on a table. The Guardians were all looking closely at him and Sylvia checked his pulse "He's alive.." She whispered and Peter nodded "How the hell is this dude still alive?" Peter asked and Sylvia looked at the man
He was huge, handsome.. Truly handsome.. He was full of muscles and had an eye patch..
"You're a dude.. This.. This is a man" Drax said, Sylvia hummed in approval "He's truly a gift from god.. I'm not saying that because he's a god" She said, Peter scowled and looked at Gamora who was somewhat nodding in agreement.. Not even jealous that her girlfriend just called this strange man hot. But he was bothered.. Him and Sylvia dated when they were younger and stupid.. Not even once did Sylvia call him a gift from god! He was one after all!
"I was a god too" Peter said and Drax looked at Sylvia, agreeing with her as well "This man.. Is so muscular" He commented and Peter gave Drax a look "I'm muscular!"
"Who are you kidding Quill? You're one sandwich away from fat" Rocket said and Peter scowled "Yeah right.."
"It's true Quill.. You have put on a bit of weight" Drax said and Peter's face dropped "What?"
Drax touched his own chin, signaling for Peter that he was getting a double chin. Peter looked at Drax in horror as he looked at Gamora and Sylvia "Do you guys think I'm fat?" He questioned to which Gamora ignored and went towards Thor's arms
"He is anxious. Angry. He feels tremendous loss and guilt." Mantis whispered, touching his forehead with her hands. Her antennas lighting up and Sylvia looked at the figure.. What happened? What happened to his ship? His people?
"It's like a pirate had a baby with an angel." Drax whispered and Sylvia nodded in agreement "Probably the most breathtaking man I've ever seen.. But he has nothing on you Gamora, you're truly a sight to look at every day" She flirted towards Gamora who narrowed her eyes playfully "Nice save there, you would have been in trouble there" Gamora said and Peter looked at his team
"Wow, this is a real wake-up call for me. Okay, I'm going to get a Bowflex. I'm going to commit, I'm going to get some dumbbells." Peter began and Rocket snorted at him "You know you can't eat dumbbells, right?"
Gamora was reflexing Thor's arm "It's like his muscles are made of Chitauri metal fiber..." Gamora said and Peter shook his head in disapproval.. How could Sylvia be okay with this? Why were Sylvia and Gamora thinking that this man was more handsome than him?!
"Stop massaging his muscles." He told Gamora who dropped his arm, going towards her girlfriend who grinned "Ah I'm so jealous.." She joked and Peter narrowed his eyes and looked at Mantis "Wake him up."
Mantis nodded placed a hand on the man's forehead and her anteenas started to light up "Wake.."
It happened fast but suddenly the man suddenly violently gasps and shot up, scrambling off the table and to his feet. The Guardians jumped back. The man looked back to see Peter's gun out, Gamora and Drax having their knifes out while Sylvia had whistled and her father's Yaka arrow had come out of her jacket and into the air
Thor looked at the team and he scowled until his face expression fell.. Aya.. Where was she?
"Who the hell are you guys?" Thor whispered and he looked around.. He needed to find Aya.. He needed to find Anthea.
"The entire time I knew Thanos.. He only had one goal: To bring balance to the universe by wiping out half of it's life. He used to kill people.. Planet by planet. Massacre by Massacre"
"Including my own." Drax said softly and Sylvia squeezed Drax's hand in support and went towards Gamora who was starting to walk towards her
"If he gets all six Infinity Stones he could do it with a snap of his fingers" Gamora snapped her fingers "Just like that"
"You seem to know a great deal about Thanos" Thor said, Sylvia looked towards him and saw him.. Just sitting there in almost defeat. A blanket over him with a bowl of soup in his hand.. He was looking down at his soup, Sylvia could tell the sorrow in his eyes, the pain.
"Gamora is.. The daughter of Thanos" Drax said and Thor looked up, giving her an intense look "What..?" He said as he got up and walked towards her. Sylvia made her way towards Gamora along with Drax as they stood there, waiting for Thor to attack Gamora
"Your father killed my brother.. Possibly my fiancée" Thor said, Gamora's expression fell once she heard that. She looked down in almost of shame. Sylvia took her hand and squeezed it, looking up at Thor.. Ready to spring into action if Thor decides to attack her.
"Step-father.. Actually. She hates him as much as you do" Peter tried to help. Thor was in front of Gamora now, looking down at her for a few moments.. Gamora waiting for Thor to do something.. Until Thor placed a shoulder on Gamora's shoulder
"Families can be tough" Thor said and Sylvia literally let out of a sigh of relief. "Before my father died, he told me that I had a half-sister that was imprisoned then she returned home.. Stabbed me in the eye" Thor said, his hand moving to her upper shoulder now and Sylvia saw Peter's eyes go wide before Thor went on
"It was um.. Round and round but I feel your pain" Thor said with a soft smile as he shook his head "If only my fiancée was here now.. She would know what to say or do"
"I know your pain too Gamora.." Peter began and Rocket rolled his eyes while Sylvia snorted while Peter began "It's no competition but I've been through a lot as well.. I had to watch my mother die.. Kill my father who killed my mother which is also hard. But It's harder than losing a sister.. Of course.. I came out with both my eyes"
"Oh boy" Sylvia whispered when she saw Thor.. Who was somewhat adorable eating his soup look up at his spoon and shook his head "I don't need a spoon.. I need a hammer" He said going towards the pod the Milano had
"How do I open this thing.. Is there some kind of code? A birthday?" He said as he began typing multiple numbers and Rocket sighed "Um.. What are you doing?"
"Taking your pod.. I need to find my fiancée " Thor said and Peter cleared his throat and stepped towards him
"No, you're not. You'll not be taking our pod today, sir." Peter said with a deeper voice and an accent. Sylvia literally face-palmed her face "Oh my god, this isn't happening"
"Uh, Quill. Are you making your voice deeper?" Rocket asked and Peter scowled and shook his head "No."
"You are. You're imitating the god-man." Drax pointed out and Peter gave Drax a look "No, I'm not." He said with a deep voice once again and Mantis pointed at Peter
"He just did it again!" She said and Peter looked back at her "This is my voice!" He tried to defend himself but Thor stomped forward, going towards Peter and he looked at him "Are you mocking me?" Thor questioned and Peter gave him a look "Are you mocking me?"
"You just did it again." Thor said and Peter gave the Guardians a look "He's trying to copy me."
"Enough!" Gamora said, annoyed on what was happening in front of her.. She was annoyed on Quill trying to impress everyone
"He did it first" Thor pouted like a young kid and Sylvia went towards him and patted his shoulder "I grew up with him.. I can relate"
"We need to stop Thanos." Gamora said, Sylvia could tell that Gamora was tense about this whole thing happening and she shook her head "We need to find out where he's going next"
"Knowhere" Thor said and Mantis was confused "He must be going somewhere"
"No.. Knowhere is a place, We've been there.. It sucks" Peter commented and Sylvia saw Gamora flinch a bit, she knew from Gamora that Peter and Anthea had a moment at that planet.. One moment that she knew it began the romance.. Their first dance.
"Why would he want to go there?" Gamora asked and Thor went towards the fridge and opened it, grabbing some food "Because for years, the Reality Stone has been safely there with a man called the Collector" Thor said and Peter shook his head
"That Stone isn't safe with the Collector, only an idiot would think that was a good idea"
"I'll make sure to tell Aya that when I see her, I'm pretty sure she will punch you" Thor said with a smile on his face and looked towards the Guardians
"There's a prophecy about Three beings able to stop a powerful figure from destroying the universe.. That powerful being is Thanos. My fiancée Aya, is one of those beings.. She found the other being, Maria Strange, another one and.." Thor said softly as he sighed
"Anthea, an Inhuman.. Aya and I met her through our travels, is another" Thor said and the Guardians gasped, Sylvia having tears in her eyes as she was smiling "Anthea... She's alive?"
"Ginger hair? Can harness golden energy and probably destroy a planet? Very beautiful? Yes she's doing good.. If I wasn't engaged, I would have probably courted her" Thor said and something inside Peter made him angry.. Like he wanted to punch Thor for making that comment.. He didn't even know Anthea? Why does he want to punch Thor for calling her beautiful and for that comment?
"Anthea is alive" Sylvia looked at Gamora and the others with tears in her eyes as Gamora went to her and brought her into a tight hug. Soon Drax, Mantis and Rocket went to Sylvia and they all held on to Sylvia "She's okay.. She's okay" Sylvia cried softly and Rocket smiled
"She wouldn't be going down without a fight.. Not our Anthea" He said and Drax nodded "My friend.. She's alive" He said and Mantis jumped up and down a bit "I knew she would be okay.. I didn't think that the crash would kill her"
Gamora looked at her girlfriend and grinned "Just wait until she finds out that we're together.. She's going to be so happy" She told Sylvia who kissed her forehead and laughed through tears and Thor was confused "Um.. What's happening?"
"Anthea is my cousin.. We thought she died in a ship crash but she didn't" She whispered and Thor smiled brightly "So you're the family she was going out to look for" He said and Sylvia's eyes widen "She's looking for us?"
"Yes.. She left us to look for you.. She said she missed you guys badly" Thor said and Sylvia went towards Thor and hugged him tightly "Thank you.. For telling us this.. For probably taking care of her too"
"She's great! We faced my sister and a couple of dead people together with Aya.. She's truly an amazing person" Thor said and Peter coughed and he looked at Sylvia
"That means we can find your cousin.. That's great!" Peter said while Sylvia flinched, she forgot that Peter was around. He looked at her with a huge smile "We can find her! She'll be safe with us since Thanos is after her" Peter said looking at Thor who nodded and Gamora sighed
"We know Anthea is strong enough to control an Infinity Stone.. But where are the others?" She asked and Thor looked at her
"Aya has been protecting those stones her whole life..There's six stones out there. Thanos already has the Power Stone because he stole it last week, when he decimated Xandar." Thor said and Peter froze and Sylvia saw that, Peter was silent a first before shaking his head "No.. He couldn't have.. He couldn't have killed.. Oh Auber" He whispered as he took a step back and he just kept shaking his head
"He couldn't have.. I promised Auber I would return.. I told her I would return.. I told her I wanted a life with her" Peter whispered with tears starting to form from his eyes and Sylvia went towards Peter and intertwined their fingers together
"It's okay.." She whispered and Peter shook his head "I promised her I would come back, I would marry her and give her children.. I wasn't ready.. Something stopped me" He whispered and Sylvia sighed "Quill.. There's nothing we can do now but avenge the people that were killed in Xander.. We need to save the world"
Peter was quiet for a moment before looking at her and nodding "We need to find Anthea and protect her.. I couldn't protect Auber but I could protect Anthea.." He said and Sylvia looked down and nodded.. What was going to happen if they reunited with Anthea? How would she react when she finds out Peter doesn't remember her? If she even remember Peter
"He stole the Space Stone from me, when he destroyed my ship and slaughtered half my people. The Time and Mind Stones are safe on Earth. They're with the Avengers.. The Time Stone is with Maria Strange, she's the Sorceress Supreme"
"The Avengers?" Peter asked and Thor nodded "They're Earth's Mightiest Heroes."
"Like Kevin Bacon?"
"He may be on the team, I don't know. Haven't been there in a while. As for the Soul Stone, no one's ever seen that besides Aya. No one even knows where it is besides her, she won't tell me or the other two. Therefore, Thanos can't get it. Therefore, he's going to Knowhere. Hence, he'll be getting the Reality Stone. You're welcome." Thor said and nodded. Sylvia swore that Gamora had a look in her eyes.. She wanted to go over to Gamora and ask what happened but Gamora snapped out of her thoughts, shaking her head and looking at Thor and the group
"Then we have to go to Knowhere now.. Let's hope that Anthea somehow finds us and with her, we get the stone" She muttered and Thor shook his head "Wrong. Where we have to go, is Nivadellir."
"That's a made up word." Drax said and even Sylvia scowled at that but Thor looked back at the group with a smile "All words are made up." He said and suddenly Rocket jumped onto the table and looked at Thor
"Nidavellir is real? Seriously? I mean, that place is a legend. They make the most powerful, horrific weapons to ever torment the universe. I would very much like to go there, please." He said with a smile on his voice and Thor chuckled and nodded, looking at the group
"The rabbit is correct, and clearly the smartest among you." He said and Rocket scowled at Thor "Rabbit?"
"Only Eitri the Dwarf King can make me the weapon I need.. It's also the weapon that could heal my fiancée if she's currently dying" Thor said walking towards Rocket "You're the captain sir?" He asked and Rocket grinned "You're very perceptive"
"You seem like a noble leader. Will you join me on my quest to Nidavellir?" Thor asked and Rocket pretended to think for a moment before nodding "Let me just ask the captain. Oh wait a second, it's me. Yeah, I'll go." Rocket said and Thor grinned "Wonderful." He said as him and Rocket were making their way to the pods and Peter turned back and frowned, looking at Sylvia "Uh, except for I'm the captain."
"Quiet." Thor called and suddenly picked up a bag, Peter frowning "That's my backpack." He said and Rocket snickered "Go sit down." Rocket said and began to open the pod, Peter scowling and shook his head "Look, this is my ship and I'm not going to - wait wh-what kind of weapon are we talking about here?" He questioned and Thor looked back "The Thanos-killing kind., With Aya and I having those weapons and with Maria and Anthea.. We will be able to stop him" He said and Peter frowned
"Don't you think we should all have a weapon like that?" He asked and Thor chuckled "No. You simply lack the strength to wield them. Your bodies would crumble as your mind collapsed into madness." He said and Rocket looked up at Thor "Is it weird that I wanna do it even more now?" He asked and Thor made a face "Mm, a little bit yeah"
"If we don't go to Knowhere and Thanos retrieves another stone, he'll be too powerful to stop.. We need to also hold him off until we find Anthea and Aya and hope that Thanos doesn't have them right now" She muttered and Thor sighed "He already is.. Maria is the only one standing that I know off.. We have to make sure the three are together and hope Thanos doesn't have all the stones" He said and Rocket looked at the group
"I got it figured out. We got two ships and a large assortment of morons. So me and Groot will go with the pirate-angel here and the morons will go to Knowhere to try to stop Thanos and find Anthea. Cool? Cool." Rocket said and Thor grinned "So cool"
Sylvia went towards Thor and grabbed his arm, Thor looked down at Sylvia and saw a flash of emotion from her eyes "You promise me.. If you find her or even just see her for a moment.. Tell her to come find me.. Find us.. Her family misses her" She whispered and Thor rested a hand on her shoulder and nodded.. Understanding.. He would want the same thing if it was Aya and Loki.
"I promise that if I see her.. I'll make sure I tell her that her family is eagerly waiting for her to come home" He said and he saw Peter near him and he said loudly
"Anthea is a beautiful woman inside and out.. She's such an amazing person and I really hope I get to see her again.. To hug her" He said and he saw that Peter had his fists closed tightly.. Causing a smirk from Thor. Peter felt like his stomach was twisting in different ways, he felt a sudden urge to push or punch Thor right now.. He didn't even know Anthea, why was he getting so jealous of the thought of Thor holding this woman he never saw.. So he thought about something different and looked at Rocket "For the record..I know you're only going with him because that's where Thanos isn't." He said and Rocket smirked
You know you really shouldn't talk that way to your captain, Quill. C'mon Groot. Put that game down, you'll rot your brain." He said and Groot stopped for a moment and looked at Rocket
"I am Groot" He muttered and Rocket sighed "I promise we'll be back.. I wanna see Anthea also" Rocket said and Groot was silent at first before walking
"You be good Groot, okay?" Sylvia said and Groot looked up at Sylvia, nodding "I am Groot"
"I bid you farewell and good luck morons. Bye." Thor said as the pod dropped and Sylvia looked down at the space..
What Rocket and Groot didn't know.. Was that they weren't going to reunite with their family.
Author's Note:
So I wanted to treat you guys for three chapters for IW I hope you guys enjoy!
I will say that Sylvia and Gamora's relationship will be wow.. I feel like Sylvia's love for Gamora will get in the way of a couple of things and their relationship will probably end in heartbreak for them.
So this story won't probably be updated until Black Panther story is close to done or is done at least. These chapters will be long because the amount of OCs In it and I want each OC to shine as much as I can. The Final battle on Wakanda and Titan won't be done until the BP is done.
Leave Reviews! We also have a bet on who will survive, Pre-Snap and Snap and whoever gets the closest, will get a written one-shot about a marvel character of their choice!
