GhostWriterGirl-1: Yeah. Elizabeth Debicki did a good job portraying the character that we can hate because of her ways. And thank you. :)
mikaela2015: Well, it's a good thing she lost to the GOTG. And thank you. :)
KuriMaster13: Thanks. :)
Here's chapter 3 everybody.
Chapter 3: Space Chase.
Peter, Gamora, Rocket, Baby Groot, Drax, Daranak and Salzer have all gathered at the cockpit to see what's going on after the Milano's alarm went off. Peter discovers to see a lot of Sovereign Omnicraft flying and approaching the Milano from behind the craft, which confuses him.
"This is weird. We've got a Sovereign fleet approaching from the rear." Peter said.
"Why would they do that?" Gamora asked.
"Probably because Rocket stole some of their batteries." Drax replied.
"What?!" Salzer said in disbelief.
"Dude!" Rocket said, making Drax realize he wasn't suppose to say that.
"Right. He didn't steal some of those. I don't know why they're after us. What a mystery this is." Drax said.
Daranak checks Rocket's knapsack to see the stolen Anulax batteries.
"Rocket, you idiot!" Daranak yelled.
The Sovereign Omnicraft started firing laser beams at the Milano. Peter started piloting the ship to evade the blasts, making a sharp turn, causing Nebula and some of the others to lose their balance. Peter evades the blasts as he pilots the Milano out to space, but the Omnicrafts were still on his trail.
"What were you thinking?" Peter asked.
"Dude, they were really easy to steal!" Rocket replied in his defense.
"That's your defense?" Gamora said.
"Come on! You saw how that High Priestess talked down to us. Now I'm teaching her a lesson!" Rocket said.
"I didn't like the way she talk down on us either, but it's still no need to steal!" Salzer said.
"I didn't realized your motivation was altruism. It's really a shame the Sovereign have mistaken your intentions and they're trying to kill us." Peter said without using a sarcastic voice.
"Exactly!" Rocket said.
"I was being sarcastic!" Peter said.
"Oh, no! You're supposed to use a sarcastic voice! Now I look foolish!" Rocket said.
"Can we put the bickering on hold until after we survive this massive space battle?" Gamora said in annoyance.
"More incoming!" Peter said, noticing a large fleet of Sovereign Omnicraft in front of the Milano.
"Good! I wanna kill some guys!" Rocket said.
Rocket then fires the Milano's weapons at the Omnicrafts, destroying a few of them, while Peter pilots to evade the Omnicrafts themselves and their fire.
"You're not killing anyone. All those ships are remotely piloted." Gamora said.
"Well, the Priestess said she can't risk the lives of her own Sovereign citizens." Daranak said.
"Typical cowards." Salzer said.
Meanwhile, back at the Sovereign, the Sovereign people were piloting the Omnicraft drones on pods that looks like a arcade game, while Ayesha and the Sovereign Admiral observe the battle.
"What is the delay, Admiral?" Ayesha asked.
"High Priestess, the batteries, they are exceptionally combustible and could destroy the entire fleet." the Sovereign Admiral explained.
"Our concern is their slight against our people. We hired them and they steal from us. It is heresy of the highest order." Ayesha said with anger.
"All command modules, fire with the intent to kill." the Sovereign Admiral ordered.
The Sovereign drone pilots increase their fire as Peter steers the Milano to evade the shots, but unfortunately, one shot hits the craft, causing some damage. Peter knows that he needs to find a safe place to land and fast.
"What's the nearest habitable planet?" Peter asked.
"It's called Berhert." Gamora replied, looking at her monitor.
"How many jumps?" Peter said.
"Only one. But the access point is 47 clicks away. And you have to go through that quantum asteroid field." Gamora replied, noticing a quantum asteroid field.
"It's risky, Peter, the asteroids tunnels around and flicker in and out of existence as if they randomly teleported. Very dangerous to fly through the area." Daranak said.
"And unfortunately, flying through is our only chance to survive." Salzer said.
Peter then flies the Milano into the quantum asteroid field, with the Omnicrafts still in pursuit, as countless asteroids flicker in and out, causing Peter to put his piloting skills to the test.
"Quill, to make it through that, you'd have to be the greatest pilot in the universe." Drax said.
"Lucky for us, I..."
"I am." Rocket said, cutting Peter off.
Rocket then takes control of the Milano. He pilots it as he evades the Omnicraft's laser blasts and the asteroids. Peter then takes back the controls of his M-ship.
"What are you doing?" Rocket said.
"I've been flying this rig since I was 10 years old." Peter replied.
"I was cybernetically engineered to pilot a spacecraft." Rocket said as he takes the controls.
"You were cybernetically engineered to be a douchebag!" Peter countered as he takes the controls back.
"Stop it." Gamora said, trying to stop Peter and Rocket from bickering again.
"Quill, later on tonight, you're gonna be laying down in your bed, and there's gonna be something squishy in your pillow case. And you're gonna be like 'What's this'? And it's gonna be because I put a turd in there!" Rocket said as he takes the controls once more.
"Uh, ew." Salzer said.
"You put your turd in my bed, I shave you." Peter threatened.
"Oh, it won't be my turd. It will be Drax's." Rocket said, making Drax laugh.
"I have famously huge turds." Drax said.
"Okay, can you stop talking about this. You all are grossing me out!" Salzer said.
"We're about to die, and this is what we're discussing?" Gamora said in annoyance.
"Enough bickering! Get us through this darn asteroid belt!" Daranak said.
However, both Peter and Rocket were fighting over the controls, causing the Milano to hit a asteroid and cause damage, making a hole where Nebula was at and the craft to go in a spiral spin, causing Baby Groot to fly. Peter catches him, and threw him to Drax. Before Nebula can be sucked out of the Milano, Peter activates a energy barrier to seal off the damage, making Nebula crash to the floor.
"Idiots!" Nebula yelled.
"Well, that's what you get when Quill flies." Rocket said.
Gamora had enough and threw a object at Rocket.
"We still have a Sovereign craft behind us." Gamora said.
"And you two keep bickering, then Daranak and I will overshadow you two." Salzer threatened.
"Trust us, you don't wanna be overshadowed." Daranak warned.
Peter pilots the Milano to evade the fire of one lone Sovereign Omnicraft, which was piloted by a Sovereign male name Zylak. The rest of the Sovereign pilots gather around Zylak's pod to see him try to shoot down the Milano and kill the Guardians. Back at the M-ship, Peter noticed the Milano has taken a lot of damage that it's now defenseless.
"Our weapons are down." Peter said.
"20 clicks to the jump!" Gamora informed before Drax gives her Baby Groot. "Hold on."
As Peter continues to evade Zylak's fire, Drax went down to the lower level to take on the ship himself, not before he kicked a yaro root away from Nebula, who she was trying to reach.
"It's not ripe." Drax said before he tethered himself and puts on a spacesuit.
Back at Sovereign, Zylak was getting confident as his fellow comrades looks on.
"Come on, Zylak. You can do this." one Sovereign man said.
Zylak then fire his craft, causing more damage to the Milano, causing his comrades to cheer.
Back at the Milano, Gamora was monitoring how many clicks Peter has left.
"15 clicks to the jump." Gamora informed.
Back at the lower level, Drax grabs a gun and activates a second energy barrier to protect Nebula before he deactivates the first and flies out into space, surprising Zylak, but he continue to fire. Gamora continues to inform Peter.
"10 clicks." Gamora informed.
Outside, Drax aims the gun at Zylak's Omnicraft.
"Die, spaceship!" Drax yelled before he fires his gun and successfully shot down the last Sovereign drone.
At Sovereign, Zylak and everyone else was disappointed that the job wasn't done.
"You suck, Zylak." the same Sovereign male said.
"Typical." a Sovereign woman said before she and everyone else leaves Zylak alone.
Back at the battle, Gamora continues to inform Peter as he pilots the Milano through the asteroid field.
"Five clicks!" Gamora informed.
Peter managed to pilot the M-ship out of the asteroid field, only to meet by a large fleet of Sovereign drones.
"Son of a... They went around the field!" Peter said.
The Sovereign drones then fire at the Milano, and just as the Milano was about to be destroyed, the whole Sovereign fleet was suddenly destroyed in one large explosion.
Back at Sovereign, Ayesha and the Admiral noticed the whole fleet has been destroyed.
"Someone destroyed all our ships!" the Sovereign Admiral said.
"What?" Ayesha said in disbelief before looking at the Admiral. "Who?"
Back at the Milano, Gamora informed that there was one click left when Rocket spotted a mysterious white spacecraft.
"What is that?" Rocket said.
"Who cares? That's the jump point! Go!" Peter said noticing the jump point to the planet Berhert.
Rocket continues to see the spacecraft and noticed a mysterious figure that looks like a man waving at him.
"It's a guy." Rocket said.
Peter pilots the Milano at the jump point and into the Berhert sky, with Drax still tethered outside, which Gamora noticed.
"Oh, my God. He's still out there?" Gamora asked.
Gamora ran down to the lower level and managed to grab Drax's cable just as it came lose, but she got pulled towards the hole. Salzer then came and grabbed Gamora and try to pull her and Drax in, but the two women still gets pull out. Gamora grabbed Salzer's hand and Salzer grabbed a piece of the Milano and hangs on. Peter noticed the commotion and sees Baby Groot sitting in Gamora's chair eating.
"Groot, put your seatbelt on! Prepare for a really bad landing!" Peter said.
"Brace for impact!" Daranak yelled.
The Milano smashed into the ground, plowing through multiple trees as Gamora and Salzer continue to hang on and Drax hitting the trees. The Milano eventually came to a stop, but now destroyed as a result. Outside, Drax was laughing as Gamora and Salzer look on.
"That was awesome! Yes!" Drax said.
Inside, Daranak checked on Peter, Rocket and Baby Groot before checking on Gamora, Drax and Salzer.
"Salzer, are you all right?" Daranak asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine, Daranak. Thanks for your concern." Salzer said.
And that's the end of this chapter. To be honest, Ayesha and the Sovereign got what they deserved. Well, what will happen next when Peter and the rest of the Guardians meet Ego and Mantis? What would Daranak and Salzer think of Ego and Mantis? Find out next time in the next chapter. Please review. :)
