Here's chapter 10 everybody.

Chapter 10: Two Of A Kind.

In deep space, the Quadant carrying Yondu, Rocket, Baby Groot, Daranak and Kraglin continues to make 700 jumps as their faces are still disfigured as a result and traveling to other dimensions and planets, one where a old man with a mustache and wearing shades and a spacesuit talking to a group of aliens known as the Watchers.

"Oh, man. Anyway, before I was so rudely interrupted. At that time, I was a Federal Express Man." the old man said.

Meanwhile, Yondu, Rocket, Baby Groot, Daranak and Kraglin before the Quadant made the last jump and finally arrived to Ego's planet. The spacecraft stop, forcing its passengers to lose balance and Baby Groot to throw up as their faces return back to normal.

"What the hell you doing, boy?" Yondu asked.

"Seriously, Rocket. You could have gotten us all killed." Daranak said.

"I could tell by you talked about him, this Ego is bad news. We're here to save Quill." Rocket said.

"For what? Huh? For honor? For love?" Yondu asked.

"No. I don't care about those things. I wanna save Quill so I can prove I'm better than him! I can lord this over him forever." Rocket said.

"Really, Rocket?! You're still not over that!" Daranak said with a frown.

Daranak and Rocket however saw Yondu laughing at Rocket.

"Why you laughing at Rocket for?" Daranak said.

"Why are you laughing at me for?" Rocket asked.

"You can fool yourself and everyone else, but you can't fool me. I know who you are." Yondu said.

"You don't know anything about me loser." Rocket said.

"Uh, guys." Daranak said, trying to defuse the situation.

"I know everything about you. I know you play like you're the meanest and the hardest but, actually, you're the most scared of all." Yondu said.

"Shut up!" Rocket hollered.

"Guys..." Daranak said.

"I know you steal batteries you don't need and you push away anyone who's willing to put up with you because just a little bit of love reminds you how big and empty that hole inside you actually is." Yondu said.

"I said shut up!" Rocket hollered.

"I know them scientists what made you, never gave a rat's ass about you." Yondu hollered.

"I'm serious, dude!" Rocket warned.

"Just like my own damn parents who sold me, their own little baby, into slavery. I know who you are, boy. Because you're me." Yondu said as he got close to Rocket's face.

Rocket looks at Yondu realizing that everything he said is true.

"What kind of a pair are we?" Rocket asked.

"The kind that's about to go fight a planet, I reckon." Yondu replied.

"All right, okay! Good. Wait. Fight a what?" Rocket said, confuse on what Yondu just said.

"Fight a planet?!" Daranak said, also not believing what Yondu said.

Back at the palace, Gamora and Nebula barge in and Gamora attacked Mantis, grabbing her by the throat and lift her up at the wall.

"Who are you people? What is this place?" Gamora demanded.

"Gamora, let her go!" Drax said.

"Gamora, stop it!" Salzer said.

"The bodies in the caverns... Who are they?" Gamora asked.

"You're scared." Mantis said as she use her empathic manipulation powers to altar Gamora's emotions to make her scared, resulting in Gamora letting her go.

At the showcase room, Ego continue to reveal his plans to a hypnotized Peter on taking over the universe.

"I call it the Expansion." Ego said as he shows Peter planets that he has visited. "It is my purpose and now it is yours as well."

"It's beautiful." Peter said.

"Over thousands of years, I implanted thousands of extensions of myself on thousands of worlds. I need to fulfill life's one true purpose. To grow and spread covering all that exists until everything is... Me!" Ego said.

Meanwhile, Gamora is freaking out after what Mantis has did to her.

"What did she do to me?" Gamora asked.

"She must have altered your emotions." Salzer said.

"She already told Salzer and I everything." Drax said.

"What bodies is Gamora talking about?" Salzer asked.

"The bodies... are his children." Mantis replied.

Ego continued to reveal his plans to Peter about the Expansion.

"I only had one problem. A single Celestial doesn't have enough power for such an enterprise. But two Celestials. Now, that just might do. Out of all my labors, the most beguiling was attempting to graft my DNA with that of another species." Ego said as the showcase shows that he has been impregnating multiple women of different alien species to complete his plan. "I hoped the result of such a coupling would be enough to power the Expansion. I had Yondu deliver some of them to me. It broke the Ravager code, but I compensated him generously and to ease his conscience, I said I'd never hurt them. I mean, that was true. They never felt a thing. But one after the other, they failed me. Not one of them carried the Celestial genes. Until you, Peter. Out of all my spawn, only you carried the connection to the light." Ego said.

After hearing who the bodies were from Mantis, Gamora realized Peter could be next.

"We need to find Peter now, and get off this damn planet." Gamora said.

"Ego will have won him to his side by now." Mantis said.

"Then we just go." Nebula said.

"No! He's our friend." Gamora said.

"All any of you do is yell at each other. You are not friends." Nebula said.

"You're right. We're family. We leave no one behind." Drax said before looking at Nebula. "Except maybe you."

"Oh, my God." Nebula said in annoyance.

"Drax is right. We're family. We don't leave no family member behind." Salzer said.

Ego continues to reveal his Expansion plans to Peter.

"For the first time in my existence, I am truly not alone!" Ego said before seeing Peter with a sad face. "What is it, son?"

"My friends." Peter said.

"You see, that's the mortal in you, Peter." Ego said, realizing Peter is trying to fight his control.

"Yes." Peter said.

"We are beyond such things." Ego said.

"Yes." Peter said.

"Now..."

"But my mother..." Peter said, cutting Ego off and making him look back at him. "You said you loved my mother."

"And that I did. My river lily who knew all the words to every song that came over the radio. I returned to Earth to see her three times, and I knew if I returned a fourth I'd never leave. The Expansion... the reason for my very existence, would be over. So, I did what I had to do. But it broke my heart to put that tumor in her head." Ego said, revealing what he did to Meredith.

Ego's revelation that he had caused the death of Meredith enabled Peter to break free of Ego's control as Peter couldn't believe what he just heard.

"What?" Peter said, no longer hypnotized.

"Now, all right, I know that sounds bad."

Peter, in anger, pulled out his Quad Blasters and shot and attack Ego multiple times, blasting his humanoid figure apart.

"Who in the hell do you think you are?" Ego asked in anger.

"You killed my mother!" Peter yelled in anger.

"I tried so hard to find a form that best suited you and this is the thanks I get?" Ego said in anger, as he reformed himself, briefly taking the form of Peter's role model David Hasselhoff just to mock him, before changing into his normal humanoid form. "You really need to grow up."

Ego suddenly attacked Peter with tentacles of blue energy from the floor to restrain him, one of them phasing through Peter's torso.

"I wanted to do this together. But I suppose you'll have to learn by spending the next thousand years as a battery!" Ego said.

And that's the end of this chapter. If you have noticed, you might have realized Butch Hartman doesn't make a cameo appearance in this story and the previous like Stan Lee did. I would have commonly described him as "Man with Black Hair". Reason I didn't make him have a cameo is because his characters like Danny and Dani doesn't appear in the Ghostly Guardian stories, and of course, I created Daranak and Salzer, so that's why he doesn't appear, despite the Danny Phantom references like the Ghost Zone. Anyway, here's we go, what will happen in the final battle and how Daranak and Salzer will handle it? Find out next time in the next chapter. Please review. :)
