Hello Readers! Again I would like to say thank you for the comments, follows, and favorites.
I only own Lindsey!
Enjoy! :)
After the arguing and fighting ended, Gamora had told us she put coordinates into the ship, and that we were on our way to the mystery location. Which I'm still kinda nervous about, I could be on my way to my death. I have zero trust in these people.
Now I'm here in Peters room trying to find me some different clothes. It would probably be a good idea to get out of prison clothes.
"You can have this." Peter said pulling out a black shirt and some pants.
Thanking him, I walked into his bathroom and changed. Fixing my hair into a ponytail and splashing my face with water, I grabbed my prison clothes and exited the bathroom.
Peter was sitting on his bed dragging his hands through his hair. He looked back up to me and smirked. "Now I think you might look better in my clothes than me."
Laughing I pulled the pants back up to my waist. "Yeah only if they fit."
Leaning back on the bed, Peter reached in a drawer and took out a belt. "That should help."
"Thank you." I smiled and walking towards the door to leave.
"So how about we act on the things you said to me on Xandar." He smiled placing his hands behind his head and laying down.
"Pig." I glared at him, leaving the room.
So I would like to make this clear. The things I said to Peter Quill that day was all for show. It was only to get him on my ship or his ship so we could take him and receive the bounty. I would never act on it, I kept telling myself.
I looked back over my shoulder into the room and groaned. He was stretched out on his bed, his shirt was hiked up, and his lower abs were showing and his-, No Lindsey walk away. Nodding to myself I walked up the ladder and towards the kitchen.
"Everyone get up here!" Shouted Rocket.
Rubbing my empty stomach I met the rest of our "team" in the cockpit. Looking out the window I gasped. "What is that?"
"It's called Knowhere," Gamora said. "The severed head of an ancient celestial being." She looked at all of us. "Be careful everyone, this place has no regulations."
Nodding I walked out of the pit to find some kind of weapon.
After landing a petite pink chick met us and told us her boss wasn't ready to see us, and that she would find us when he was.
So the six of us just decided to walk around. Rocket was perched on my shoulders lightly patting my head like drums, Groot was behind us taking in everything. Gamora and Drax strayed behind glaring at people who neared us. And well Peter was up front talking about the strange planet of outlaws he came from.
"Sounds like a place I would like to visit." Drax stated.
"Okay let's find something to do." I told Rocket.
"Bar." He slapped my forehead.
"On it." I nodded going towards the huge bar that looked to be happening at the moment. "Hey guys this is where we will be." I called to the rest of the group.
Hour in and Drax, Groot, Rocket, and I were now feeling pretty good. We had many different kinds of drinks, we were all getting along. We were gambling on this weird bigger animal, eating smaller animal thing. This was the atmosphere I was use to. Stealing money from guys that got too close, and killing it at the gambling table.
But all good things always come to an end. The next thing I know Groot was being thrown by Drax across the room Rocket was screaming obscenities. And well me I was attempting to rip Drax a new one.
"You bastard!" I yelled about to dive at him but Peter was faster. He grabbed me around the waist.
"Shh, stop it." He whispered in my ear.
Settling down I glared at Drax once more and walked over to Rocket.
"I'm tired of it!" Rocket growled "Drax over here called Groot dumb, Lindsey a drunk whore, and continuously refers to me as a rodent."
"Which is what y'all are." Drax said dusting off his pants swaying.
"Watch it!" Peter snapped.
"I'm not a whore." I whimpered swaying also. "But I am drunk." I chuckled to myself.
Peter shook his head sticking a finger through my belt loop to hold me steady, and from leaving.
"I didn't ask for this!" Rocket cried.
"For what?" Peter asked pulling me towards him.
"I didn't ask to be made! To be torn apart and put together over and over again. To be turned into some little monster."
Frowning I looked over towards Rocket. I know he doesn't want sympathy but I still felt bad. He was my best friend, trying to walk over there I was stopped. "Let go." I whined.
"I don't want your sympathy. Forget this, come on Groot, Lindsey." He said pushing away Gamora.
Putting all my attention on trying to remove my drunk leash from Peter, I totally missed the argument he was having with Rocket. "I don't like this." I grumbled trying to pull some more.
"The Collector will see you now." The pink lady said from a staircase interrupting all arguments.
"Creepy." I whispered to Peter who agreed pushing me in the direction everyone went.
Now I was correct on the creepy part. Looking around this so called Collectors place made me regret coming here. I could of stayed at the bar, groaning I tried to ignore all the living things that were locked up, starring at me, asking for help.
Swaying side to side with my eyes closed, I went to my happy place. Peter still had his finger in my belt loop holding me in place beside him.
"The orb, if you would." The Collector asked holding his hand out.
Gamora pulled it out handing it to him. He nodded his thanks and popped it opened. Squinted my eyes to focus on the orb, I noticed a tiny purple gem was housed in it.
"This is the Infinity Stone." The collector continued on explaining it, but I just couldn't focus on anything my head was pounding. And truthfully the less I know about the thing the better, Ronan wants it and thats bad news.
Shaking my head awake I noticed the Collectors assistant was walking towards the orb. Pulling on Peters coat trying to get his attention was a fail. He just kept shushing me.
"No." I herd the Collector mutter sticking his hand out.
Everything happened so fast, nobody could stop the girl from grabbing ahold of the gem, she screamed in pain as it absorbed her body. We were surrounded by a purple smoke cloud. Peter picked me up around the waist and throwing me in between him and Gamora behind a counter.
"Shit," I screamed into Peters chest clenching my eyes shut.
As fast as it came it ended.
Peter pulled my face up both hands on each side. "Are you okay." I just nodded standing up. Peter was trying to ask Gamora if she was okay but she just pushed him away and closed the Orb.
"We have to get this to Nova Corps." She ordered putting it in her pocket.
"Rocket... Groot!" I called looking around the destroyed room. Not really listening to the others. Turning towards the exit I ran out for fresh air.
"Guys!" I yelled looking around everything nearby was destroyed. Rubbing my tummy, I started getting a stomach ache from my nerves.
"Lindsey no running off." Peter called running up next to me.
"I am Groot." I herd from behind me.
Turning around I gave Rocket and Groot a huge smile. "That was crazy." I exclaimed.
"Right!" Rocket agreed.
"Where's Drax" Peter said looking around.
Shrugging I turned and pointed toward the scary ship that was descending away from us. "That can't be good."
"Ronan." Gamora said putting away the orb. "We have to get the orb away from here."
"This way!" Peter called ushering us towards the mining ships.
Rocket, Gamora, and Peter all got into a ship and took off instantly. Groot and I were left behind because he was too big, and I can't fly for shit. Looking up to Groot I sighed.
"I guess we should find Drax." Groot nodded down to me and started to walk in the direction of the giant ship.
Finding Drax was stressful. People were screaming running everywhere trying to find safety. Ronan was here, and he was pissed. Looking up towards the sky I noticed the huge ship leaving.
"That can either be very good or very bad." I mumbled. "Right Groot." Looking to my side he was gone. "Groot?" I called.
"I am Groot." He called by a pool of yellow stuff.
"You shouldn't be around there." I said trying to pull him away, but he just pulled back and submerging his arm in the goo. "Hey that's bad." I pulled harder.
But seconds later he pulled a beat up dirty Drax.
Gasping I knelt down beside him. "Good job Groot!" I smiled up to him, but that instantly disappeared when he sharply poked him in the lung. "GROOT!" I yelled standing up.
Coughing, and gagging came from Drax till he became fully conscious.
"You are in huge trouble asshole." I snapped walking towards a bench to wait for the others to return.
