After seeing Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and remembering some fics of similar nature, this came to mind, mainly because both GotG3 and Peacemaker were done by James Gunn.
Disclaimer: I do not own Marvel Cinematic Universe or DC Extended Universe.
The Guardians of the Galaxy and Peacemaker, Emilia Harcourt and Adrian Chase were facing off on the outskirts of the town, with Quill and Peacemaker inches apart from each other with heated stares.
"I can take you down with my moves anywhere, anytime. Same goes for my team." Quill said.
"Oh, I doubt it." Peacemaker said, laughing. "You wanna put that to the test? Bring it on."
"Gladly." Quill said as they both backed off.
Gamora and Harcourt both sighed in exasperation and rolled their eyes and shook their heads.
"I can't believe they are actually going to do it." Gamora said.
"You're not the only one." Harcourt said.
"We're about to enter the death match." Adrian said, rubbing his hands excitingly.
"Alright, time for the dance-off! Hit it, Rocket!" Quill said.
"OK. 3… 2… 1…" Rocket plugged the cables together. "Let's get ready to rumble."
The speakers turned on as Quill began playing on imaginary guitar, when the music began rolling and they heard singing.
"Hey! Hey! What's the matter with your head, yeah!"
Quill began skipping and kicking around and spinning around.
"Hey! Hey! What's the matter with your head, yeah!
Hey! Hey! What's the matter with your mind and your sign and oh
Hey! Hey! Nothin' the matter with your head
Baby, find it, come on and find it
Bear with it, baby, 'cause you're fine
And you're mine, and you look so divine"
Drax just stared, not understanding what was going on, Mantis looked amused, Rocket and Gamora facepalmed and shook their heads, while Groot chuckled.
"Come and get your love!"
Quill slid across the floor and did a pose, smiling, looking forward to some applause but all he got was puzzled looks from everyone.
"That's it?" Chris asked.
"Come on, I was awesome." Quill said, turning to the Guardians, who shook their heads.
"Peter, if this is how the world was saved by dancing, I think it was better off dying." Mantis said.
"Come on, Quill, this is just sad." Rocket pointed out.
"Seriously, just kill me now." Gamora grumbled, facepalming.
"Like I said, you're an imbecile, Quill." Drax said.
"Right now I wish Thanos dismantled me and put back together again, it's better than this horrendous sight." Nebula said and Quill looked offended.
"Well, just wait until you see my butt dance." Adrian volunteered.
"Nooooo!" Chris and Harcourt both groaned as Adrian put his hands on his hips and began shaking his waist around.
"Twerk it and twerk it! It's my famous butt dance, my butt dance, my butt dance!"
The Guardians just laughed before Groot stepped in.
"I am Groot!" Groot said before Mr. Blue Sky began playing and Groot shook around before he began skipping, dancing, jumping and shaking around and while it looked cute, when he was Baby Groot, now that he was back full grown, it just looked… odd as the Guardians stared with their jaws falling open and no one knew any better, their jaws would be on the ground now, while Chris, Harcourt and Adrian laughed and Quill smirked.
"Aren't we gonna do 'Ooh, Child' like last—"
"No!" Gamora, Rocket, Drax and Nebula said in unison and Quill frowned.
"Alright. Time to end this." Chris said before 'Do Ya Wanna Taste It' began.
"Do ya really wanna, do ya really wanna taste it?"
Chris began stomping forward and shaking his arms before patting his legs as Adrian and Leota approached him from each side.
"Get it on (get on top)
Make a move extreme (make a pose)
Make a shortcut to your dreams
Float straight to the stars on that flying thing"
They sidestepped back and forth, while raising and lowering their arms before straightening themselves and folding their arms and doing robotic movements before shaking around their arms like when they hold a lasso.
"Well, I have to admit, that's not bad." Nebula said.
"Unlike your moves, they are impressive, Quill." Drax said.
"Hey, whose side are you on?" Quill whirled on them.
"Well, they've got a point, Pete. I cringe when I watch you dance, with them, well I have to…" Rocket whistled, impressed.
"Getting snowblind
Game, set, go!
Pick a tune, chick harpoon in a world beyond
Get a beat, got a heat
On a phony string"
From the side, Harcourt and Murn entered, spinning around before doing sidesteps with Economos, Leota as Adrian and Leota approached, with Chris in the center as they put their hands behind their back.
"Tear your world apart
Once the magic starts"
Rocket growled as he was about to lunge at Murn but Groot grabbed him.
"I'm gonna tear that ugly mug apart!" Rocket yelled.
"I am Groot!" Groot said.
"He's right! Calm down, Rocket!" Quill said.
"It's not him, OK? It's not him!" Gamora assured.
Rocket calmed down after a moment as they observed.
The group stepped forward and were tilting from side to side before they were sidestepping back and forth and shaking their hands before they spun their waists around with Chris doing spinning motion with his gun and did steps forward, with the group folding their hands and showing middle fingers, while Chris raised his arms up and down before aiming his gun and doing a gunshot motion.
"Do ya really wanna, do ya really wanna taste it?
What's going up must come down
Do ya really wanna, do ya really wanna taste it?
Baby, you're losing ground
Blind to what you'll soon become
The mirror lies, the whole world's wrong
But you're dancing with blinkers on
Throw your dog the invisible bone"
"OK, that's enough, I get it, I've got nothing on you." Quill said, humiliated as the dancing stopped.
"Shame, you would've liked our dance to the end." Chris said.
Suddenly, they heard some techno music and with puzzled look they were wondering where was it coming from, when they saw Helmut Zemo shaking around with his shoulders and clapping his hands and shaking his arms up and down and they stared in bewilderment before Zemo walked off, smirking.
"I am Groot." Groot said.
"Oh, come on!" Quill whirled on Groot, glaring. "He wasn't even invited to the challenge."
"Still, can you beat this?" Chris challenged as Quill looked at the Guardians with a pleading look but everyone shook their heads, not wanting to humiliate themselves further.
"Ha! Told ya we're the best!" Adrian said before he began shaking his hips and butt again.
"After that, I really doubt it." Quill said.
Dance descriptions are not my thing but hope this was good.
And, well, I remembered Zemo's dance and just couldn't help myself but to put it there, since Zemo's dance is as much meme as Bully Maguire dancing, while I did consider putting it there, it just felt out of place.
Rocket wanting to attack Murn was a reference to Chudwuki Ewuji playing High Evolutionary in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
So, what do you guys think?
