NOVA coremen Titus, paced back and fourth in his office worried about the new threat to Xandar. It was all the fault of those brats from the future...the new Guardians of the Galaxy caused this! Now due to the threat of the Imperial Empire with the vastly superior technology and their Sith warriors with their powers and Lightsabers along with what Titus knew was a traitorous future Guardian of the galaxy and his master Darth Malgus. Titus knew that this spelt doom for Xandar! So he devised a plan, a way to get rid of two things at one time. He assembled his most loyal men in his personal compound and gave them a rousing speech.

"When we get the chance! We can eliminate two bird with one stone...we let that Guardian scum from the future clear the path and get rid of Malgus...then we can make our move and destroy him! But we have two primary targets!" Titus explained as he showed a holo-projection of Jason Quill and Lord Scorpius the Annihilator

"If we take out these two the danger's over! The others like Specter are road kill...however they will not be so easy to take down and I can't guarantee that all of you will make it out alive but at least XANDAR! OUR HOME WILL BE SAFE! SO WHO'S WITH ME!" Titus bellowed and all of men shouted "HAIL TITUS!"

Meanwhile with Coremen Dey...

Dey was in his office when NOVA prime called him to her new office at the south side of the HQ.

"Mam"

"Dey...I have some concerns about some members of staff"

"Who in particular mam"

"Coremen Titus, he seemed frustrated when he was denied access to the imperial tech and he tends to blame our visitors from the future"

"What are you implying mam"

NOVA prime got up from her seat and gazed out of the window

"If given the chance...Coremen Titus will betray our allies from the future and there is without a shadow of of a doubt that he'll use lethal force.

"You're saying he'll kill them?"

"Given the chance...you know Titus as well as I that he likes to do things like this...the old double cross"

"I hardly doubt that it'll work on Jacob and Scorpius if those are his targets, they'll sense him coming, with their force power"

"Which is why we need to warn them...just in case, plus we'll need to supervise him more often."

"They can handle themselves...their capable of that"

"Oh I trust Scorpius, he doesn't trust anyone but his own team-mates and the Guardians of the present...it's Jacob I'm worried about, he get's...attached to easily"

"I've noticed that" Dey mumbled.

Then the building shook violently

"DEAR LORD!" shouted NOVA prime

"What was that?!" Dey asked

She looked out her window and spotted the Imperial battle-cruiser, she knew that it was imperial due to the design and tech

"Dey...contact the Guardians, we need backup ASAP!"

"Why?" Dey asked"It's just an earthquake"

"No Dey...look outside"

Dey spotted the Imperial battle-cruiser, the damn thing was bigger than the dark aster about five times as bigger and more heavily armed.

Dey gulped "I'll get right on that"

"We're in for a fight Dey...one hell of a bloody fight"
