A/N: Hey guys! Sorry this chapter is a little short. Enjoy.

Gamora slowly opened her eyes, looking around to see she was still in the Xandarian hospital. Rocket was curled up at the foot of the bed while Drax was asleep to her left and Peter to her right. Groot was asleep in a chair by the window.

Gamora slowly sat up, her body screaming in protest. She still had abdominal pain and nausea, but it was minimal, but it wasn't as bad as when she had arrived to the hospital.

Groot was the first to see she was awake.

"I am Groot!" He said excitedly, waking the others.

"Hey, Mora. How do you feel?" Peter asked.

"Better. Still in a little pain and a little tired."

"It's from the medication that the doctors kept giving you for the pain. Should wear off soon. The pain may still be there for a little while longer." Drax said, sighing as he got up to leave the room, probably to get the doctor.

"How long was I asleep?" She asked, looking at the other three.

"You've been out of it for about two weeks...well, in and out of consciousness. This is honestly the first full and longest conversation we had with you. You had a bunch of toxins in your system that you're lucky you're even alive." Rocket explained, getting off the bed as the doctor arrived.

She was a petite woman with her blonde hair pulled into a tight bun, skin so pale she looked like a ghost, and was wearing a white lab coat.

"Hello Gamora. I'm Dr. Camara. How are you feeling dear?" She asked, checking Gamora's pulse and blood pressure.

"Have you been feeling any pain? Nausea?"

"A little, but it's better than before. What happened?"

"You had neurotoxins and cytotoxins in your system due to the plant. The toxins attacked your nervous system and attacked the site of the injury, which is why there were blisters and infection at the site of the wound. We thought we were going to lose you at one point." She explained, sighing, "Your fever finally broke a few days ago and we worked for several hours to keep the internal bleeding under control. Your pulse was barely there and your blood pressure was extremely low. It's been fluctuating between being really high and really low. I'm surprised it's quite normal now." She added, writing down the information on the clipboard.

"When can she leave?" Peter asked, wanting to get out of Xandar as soon as possible.

"In a few days. We would just like to run some more tests to make sure she's out of the woods. However, she'll still need some rests when she leaves. She's still very weak." Dr. Camara said, noticing that Gamora had begun to drift off again.

"I am Groot."

"Of course it's not normal, you moron! What's wrong with her? She's been doing that for the last two weeks."

"Yeah, will she be alright?" Drax asked, gesturing to the woman in concern.

"Unfortunately, she will remain like this for quite some time. It's her body's way of telling her she needs to rest to get the rest of the toxins out of her system. It could last for another few days, or as long as another week. I'll be back to check on her in a couple hours." She explained and left the room, closing the door quietly behind her. Drax, Rocket, and Groot following behind to go get food.

"Peter?" Gamora asked, still half conscious.

"Yes?" He asked, uncertain whether he wanted to know what she was going to tell him.

Gamora weakly raised a hand and hit him in the back of the head. Although she was only half conscious, Peter had to admit that it still hurt when she hit him.

"Don't bring anymore strange plants on the ship. Ever." She said, giving a weak chuckle as she succumbed to sleep once more.

A/N: Let me know what y'all think! Feel free to comment any ideas for the next chapter, who knows? I might use them. Please review :)
