Kuatal - Kree Military base

After Peter was stabbed several times in his arms, two of the Kree started to beat on Peter who couldn't defend himself due being restrained to the chair.

Tar-Voll himself even got a few punches in against Peter and enjoyed inflicting pain on one of those who killed his older brother, and stepped back as Lieutenant Kalix stepped forward with his knife to do some more stabbing on Star Lord.

Peter was stabbed in the chest just below his ribs and cried out in pain as he was stabbed again below the ribs twice more and the Kree guarding the cell Gamora was in laughed at Peter's pain as one of them said "Don't worry. Your next."

Peter spat blood at Kalix as he punched Peter on the mouth again and said to Tar-Voll "Your brother cried when he died. It was pathetic."

Tar-Voll enraged started to punch Peter again and again before leaning in close and said "One more remark like that and I'll cut out your tongue."

Peter's response was to head butt Tar-Voll who stepped back angrily with a now broken nose as Kalix used his knife to stab Peter again this time in his leg. Before going over to check on his commander

Tar-Voll said to his concerned second in command "I'm ok." Peter spat blood out of his mouth and remarked "Whimp."

Tar-Voll was about to hit Peter again when he got an idea and to his men "Put him back in his cell. Give him time to rest. Gamora can take his place for a while."

Peter was freed from the chair and went on the attack, the Kree quickly subdued him and brought him back to the cell. More men rushed into the cell to get Gamora and bring her to interrogation chair, as Peter was told by the Kree now guarding him in his cell, he wouldn't want to miss anything.

Gamora was restrained to the chair as Tar-Voll ordered Kalix to bring him what he had kept for Gaomra's torture, knowing that physical torture would not work on her, like on Star Lord.

Kalix soon came back with a box that contained a creature in water. Tar-Voll said to Gamora "This is a Cerebral Parasite. It will extract all your guilty memories and force you to relive all the pain you inflicted on others in the past."

The Parasite was put on Gamora, wrapping around her head and in mere moments she was experiencing all the pain, death and misery she inflicted on others in the past for Thanos and was screaming in absolute agony.

Peter knew he had to stop this, he couldn't bear to see Gamora in pain and yelled out at Tar-Voll "Your brother Ronan died like a little bitch Tar-Voll!"

Tar-Voll was enraged at this and ordered his men to bring over Peter as the Cerebral Parasite was put on him, making him fall to knees as he relived the death of his mother and cried out in agony while Gamora looked on horrified.

Tar-Voll said "This is an even better way to torture you both. Watching the one you love in agony is worse than anything I could do."

As this was going on, Thanos was watching the torture by holographic projection and smiled.

Knowhere

Yondu and Kraglin met up with Drax and Rocket near the tavern Rocket said "I left a little bobby trap on Kazo's ship. If he goes back there we'll know it."

Yondu shook his head and said "Kazo is a smart man. He won't go back to his ship. He'll know we laid a trap there for him. The man will lay low and find way off Knowhere as soon as he can."

Rocket said "I have contacts here. I can ask them if they've seen Kazo and have let us know when he is spotted. They owe me a favour or two."

Rocket got in touch with his contacts and learned that Kazo was spotted near the territory of a vicious gang known as the Bloodriders and said "Kazo probably went there for help getting off Knowhere without us knowing. They're known for helping people disappear, for a price."

Yondu simply said "Let's go get him."

The group headed to the Bloodrider's main base on Knowhere and saw several armed men patrolling outside. Yondu used his arrow to kill those guards as the others went inside the base and killed anyone in their way.

Yondu followed the others and killed anyone who was left, as Drax grabbed one of the guards still alive by the neck and said "Where's Kazo Sana. We have some questions for him."

The guard pointed to a door and said "He's in the main office, with the boss."

With that Drax cut the man's throat and the group of four entered the room, Rocket and Kraglin had guns drawn as Drax stood ready to tackle Kazo and Yondu had his arrow out aimed at Kazo Sana who smirked as he saw them.

The head of the Bloodriders said "We can negotiate-".

He was cut off as Kazo killed the man with a gunshot to the head.

Kazo poured himself a drink and said to the four armed men "Let's talk."

Rocket said "Why talk? Why don't we just let get Drax make you talk?"

Kazo laughed before saying "I can endure a lot of pain. Why do something can take time, when I am willingly to give you the information you want on where your friends are now. Provided we can come to an arrangement."

Yondu asked "What do you want?"

Kazo said "I am prepared to tell you where Gamora and Peter Quill are right now. I've already been paid so I have no loyalty to them."

Yondu was silent for a moment before he asked "In return for what?"

Kazo replied "You letting me walk away alive. So what do you say?"

Yondu looked to the others who nodded as he said "Deal. Now where is Gamora and my son?"

Kazo said "I delivered them to a Kree military base on the planet Kuatal. The base commander is a relative of Ronan the Accuser and wants to make them suffer for what happened to Ronan, before killing them. Now you'll honour our bargain?"

Yondu and the others cleared a path for Kazo to leave, as he did the bounty hunter whispered "We'll meet again Udonta. I promise you that."

Yondu whispered to him "I'll be waiting."

With that the group headed back to the Milano and set the destination for Xandar, to take on a Kree military base. They would need the help of the Nova Corp.

Kuatal - Kree Military base

The Cerebral Parasite was soon taken off Peter, who was left shaken by what he had experienced as Tar-Voll asked "I'm curious which hand, held the Infinity Stone that killed my brother? Your right hand or left hand?"

Peter asked "Why do you want to know that?"

Tar-Voll said "Humour me. Or would like the Parasite back on your head?"

Peter put forward his hand as Tar-Voll had several men hold Peter down, with his right arm extended as he took out a dagger and said "You need something to make you remember why killing my brother was a mistake, Star-Lord."

He raised the dagger up as he remarked "This should help you remember."

In one instant, Peter's right hand was cut off as he screamed in agony while Tar-Voll watched on with a smile.
