Bounties and Love

Chapter 5 hunting the hunter

Author's notes I don't own Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel does.

This fic is set after GOTG Vol 2 and has one big difference from the events of the film.

I want to thank Cheion and Fenrisulven13 for proofreading this chapter and I encourage you all to read their work, you might like it.

Well's that's enough of an Author's notes, on with chapter 5.

Xandar

Yondu smiled as the Corpsman now petrified screamed "Don't kill me! I'll tell you how you can find Kazo Sana!"

Yondu whistled so his arrow was a bit away from the man but still in the air so he could kill the man at a moment's notice as he said to the traitor "Start talking."

Makel said "Every ship that I help get on Xandar. I place a tracker on it so I can track the ship. A little back up in case those In help don't fulfil their end of the bargain. I can show you the tracker signal for the Tracker. You can use that to catch up to The Chaser and find those he took or where he might have stopped on the way to his final destination."

Makel got out a device and showed it to Yondu, he saw it was showing a reading that was moving several systems star away.

Yondu left the room as other Nova Corp members arrived to take the traitor to an interrogation room.

Yondu showed the device to the other Guardians as Kraglin asked "Any idea where Kazo is?"

Yondu looked at the device's tracking and saw that the Chaser was heading to Knowhere and had made multiple stops on the way after leaving Xandar.

Drax who saw the tracking said in anger "This man is delivering them to his employers on Knowhere."

The group soon left the Nova Corp headquarters and headed to the Milano as Rocket and Yondu piloted the ship, setting course for Knowhere, as Mantis used her Empathic abilities to calm down Groot who was worried about Peter and Gamora, as was everyone else on the ship.

Kuatal - Kree Military base

Peter and Gamora woke up in a holding cell which, Gamora recognised as Kree by it's design.

Several Kree soldiers entered the room, armed led by a man who was clearly their superior officer.

Peter asked "Who are you and why did you have that bounty hunter abduct us?"

The Kree commander said in anger "You killed my brother!" He looked at Gamora and said "And you betrayed him and your father Thanos!"

Gamora said "Your Ronan's brother?"

The Kree commander nodded as he said "Commander Tar-Voll. What happened to my brother will be painless compared to what myself and my men will do to you too. We'll make is last as long as we can. SO if you have prayers for the dying, say it now so you may be comforted."

With that the commander and his men left, leaving some men behind to guard the cell.

The commander got told that he had a transmission incoming and he had a look of fear on his face as he learned who is was.

Commander Tar-Voll went to his quarters and activated the communications and was met with a hologram of the Mad Titan Thanos himself.

Tar-Voll bowed his head and said "I have the one called Star Lord and the traitor Gamora in custody. As you ordered I will ensure their deaths are as long and painful as possible. Once the other Guardians come. I will kill them as well."

Thanos said "Good. Do this than use your forces to go to Xandar and do what your older brother couldn't. Bring me the orb."

Tar-Voll said "Yes Lord Thanos."

The communication ended as Tar-Voll got ready to begin the torture, only question was. Who would be the first one he'd torture. Star-Lord or Gamora.

Tar-Voll thought to himself 'Decisions…Decisions.'

Knowhere

The Milano arrived at the Celestial head turned mining sight and trading hub.

Kazo's ship the Chaser arrived here shortly before they did. Yondu got in touch with contacts he had on Knowhere who told him Kazo was at a bar nearby drinking.

Rocket asked "What's the plan?"

Kraglin said "Kazo could be drinking waiting for the employers to arrive. He might have Peter and Gamora kept on his ship until he gets his bounty money."

Yondu said "Myself and Kraglin will approach Kazo. We'll offer him a job, try and get him to talk. Rocket, you and Drax go to his ship. Find Peter and Gamora."

Mantis asked "What will I do?"

Yondu replied "You stay here and keep an eye on the Twig."

Mantis smiled as the others left the ship as Groot waved to them.

Yondu and Kraglin headed to the bar Starlets where Kazo was drinking at the bar and talking to the bartender.

Kraglin hanged back, as Yondu went over and sat down next to Kazo and ordered himself a drink, before he turned to Kazo and asked "You Kazo Sana. The best bounty hunter in the Universe?"

Kazo took a drink before he said "Go away."

Yondu said "I have a job for you?"

Kazo looked at him and said "I'm listening."

Yondu said "6 million Units, if you kill Stakar Ogord for me. What do you say?"

Kazo put down his drink and started to laugh before saying "Do you think I'm an idiot Udonta. I know you're a Guardian of the Galaxy now. Corpsman Makel gave me that bit of info, for a price. But well worth it."

Before Kazo could put out a stun grenade Yondu whistled and his Yaka Arrow was at the man's right eye.

Kazo put away the grenade and said loudly "One Million Units to whoever kills Yondu Udonta!"

Nearly everyone in the bar stood up and got out guns, looking to collect this bounty, as Yondu whistled and started to kill the criminals who now started to fight each other over collecting this money, Kraglin was taking out people nearby as Kazo fled the bar and the bartender hid behind the counter in fear.

Once all the criminals were dead, Yondu and Kraglin saw that Kazo was gone, having fled.

Yondu then got a communication from Rocket.

Yondu asked "What is it?"

Rocket replied "Me and Drax are at Kazo's ship. Peter and Gamora are not here. Kazo must have delivered them to whoever employed him at one of his stops along the way here."

Yondu grabbed a chair in anger and threw it against the wall as he cursed Kazo Sana and whoever hired him.

Kuatal - Kree Military base

Commander Tar-Voll saw everything was ready and went to the holding cell and looked at both prisoners before deciding who to torture first. He finally pointed to Peter and said "You're first Star-Lord."

Several Kree entered the cell and held Gamora back as Peter was dragged out of the cell to a nearby chair where he was restrained to as Gamora watched on. Powerless to help Peter.

Tar-Voll said "Now my vengeance for my beloved brother Ronan will begin. By the time we are done. Both of you will beg for death. And I being merciful will grant it."

The base's top interrogator stepped forward with a sharp knife as Peter's shirt was ripped off him and said "The last prisoner in this chair lasted nearly two days. Do you want to try for a new record Star Lord?"

Peter said nothing as he was stabbed in the shoulder and Tar-Voll watched on smiling as the torture began.
