Ch 6

Drax and Mantis were headed to the lobby and Mantis used her mind powers to make the guard fall in love with Drax (to his annoyance) to let them through.

Meanwhile, Peter, Gamora, and Nebula headed to the info pod station when some random scientist accidentally bumped into Peter.

"Oh! Apologies." the scientist said in a nervous voice before heading off.

"No problem." Peter replied.

Then the trio met the only person at the station who was Ura.

"I'll handle this one." Peter told the others.

"How?" Gamora asked.

"Pure Star-Lord charm." Peter replied as Gamora and Nebula both rolled their eyes.

"Hi, Ura." Peter said as he slowly walked up to the red-skinned Krylorian. "My name is Patrick Swayze. I've been noticing you

for quite a while. And the way that you smile to yourself when you think nobody is looking, it makes my everyday a bit brighter."

Ura's face was very...blank.

It was hard to get a read on what she thought at all.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a blaster pistol loading as Gamora just stormed in and aimed it at Ura, barking orders and totally ruining the whole thing.

"We need your hand, and it's your choice whether it's on your body, or not!"

"What are you doing?" Peter asked frustradetly.

"She was never gonna fall for that." Gamora pointed out.

"She was totally into me, man." Peter replied, desperately trying and failing to save his thunder.

"I kinda thought you were a douchebag." Ura admitted.

"Oh, come on." Peter groaned.

Why did things always have to end up like this?

After Ura got the file, they went to the administrator office where Ura got them the file for Rocket.

Suddenly, alarms blared and more guards stormed in with their blasters raised.

"Everybody, lower your weapon or I blow this woman's brain out!" Gamora yelled, quickly holding Ura hostage with her blaster pistol aimed at Ura's head.

"Back off!"

Peter just shook his head as the guards did back off.

This was not helping their rep at all.

"I'm so sorry about this." Peter tried.

"Oh, please." Ura replied.

"We're here to save the life of our friend. That is all. We paid her to help us get in and get out. You'd think that'd mean, "oh, I'm gonna help you do it in a way that no one knows it's happening." But no. What she means is I'm gonna shoot people. threaten people's lives."

At that, he quickly glared at Gamora who told him to shut up before he continued on.

"And I know you're probably asking "why would I trust her?" Well...That's a good question. The answer is...We used to be in love. Yeah, she was my girlfriend. Only she doesn't remember it because it wasn't her. Because her dad threw her off a magic cliff and she died. And then I lost my temper and nearly destroyed half the universe. Then she came back. Out of the past. There she is. Everyone else who died in the past stayed dead. Not her. Why? Was it the magic cliff? I don't know. I'm not some freakin' Infinity Stone scientist. Just some dumbass Earth dude who met a girl, fell in girl died, and then came back...came back a total dick!"

"You left out some important information but...that is the gist of it." Nebula said with a shrug.

Then the elevator doors finally opened and the four of them went in with Gamora immediately raising her pistol and ordering the guards to lower their weapons or she would blast their brains off.

"Hey, we don't want any-" the female Sovereign was cut off by a blaster shot firing from Gamora hitting her leg and she screamed as the others dragged her off.

"God!" Peter said, shaking his head in disbelief. "Past Gamora's just mean!"

Meanwhile, Drax and Mantis were also in a bad spot as Drax punched and kicked Orgosentries away and Mantis used her mind powers to make them fight each other.

Then Nebula came out with the others but was sent sprawling by a blaster shot, causing her to spit out blood as Drax was also shot down.

Peter saved them just in time by convincing Ura to let him use the computer to tell them their truth but he really just hacked into the sentries' jetpacks, making them fly off in different directions, slamming into the walls or hitting into each other and flying down face-first.

Suddenly, the Bowie slammed its way through the building and debris sprayed everywhere.

"I am Groot?" Groot asked as the Guardians boarded with the file.

"Yeah, that looked cool." Nebula replied.

Then the Bowie blasted off back into space.

Now they could save their furry friend before it was too late.
