In Yondu's ship

"You betrayed me! Steal my money!" Yondu yelled at Peter who was got pinned at the wall by two men of his, punching him in the stomach repeatedly.

"Stop it! Leave him alone!" Gamora yelled at Yondu but she can't because

"When I picked you up as a kid, these boys wanted to eat you. They ain't never tasted Terran before. I saved your life!" he yelled again as Peter was received a punch on the stomach again.

Peter starting to feel flames burning inside him. He put up all of his courage to struggle and fight back Yondu.

"Oh, will you shut up about that? God! Twenty years, you've been throwing that in my face, like it's some great thing, not eating me! Normal people don't even think about eating someone else! Much less that person having to be grateful for it! You abducted me, man. You stole me from my home and from my family!" peter yelled in Yondu's face, making he backed away a little.

"You don't give a damn about your Terra! You're scared because you're soft, in here!" Yondu yelled back as he patted Peter's chest. "Here! Right here!"

Yondu grabbed Peter, to punch him again but stopped when Gamora struggled and started to yell.

"Yondu! Listen to me! Ronan has something called an Infinity Stone!" Gamora told Yondu.

Yondu looked at her.

"I know what he's got, girl" Yondu said and looked back at weak Peter.

"Then you know we must get it back! He's gonna use it to wipe out Xandar. We have to warn them. Billions of people will perish" Gamora tried to convinced Yondu.

Yondu looked deep into the boy that was in front of him. He stared at him for a moment before speaks again.

"Is that what she's been filling your head with, boy? Sentiment?" Yondu asked and slapped Peter across his face. "Eating away your brain like maggots! That's it"  Yondu said.

Yondu then lifted his jacket, revealing his one and only favourite arrow. He whistled sweetly, making the arrow flew up and ended up in front of Peter's forehead.

"No!" Gamora yelled, struggling to break free.

"Sorry, boy. But a captain's gotta teach his men what happens to those what cross him" Yondu said, not taking off his eyes from Peter.

"Captain's gotta teach stuff!" Kraglin shouted as everyone in the ship agreed except Gamora and Peter.

"If you kill me now, you are saying goodbye to the biggest score you have ever seen" Peter exclaimed, making Yondu thinking about his decision about killing him.

Yondu just smiled and scoffed at his answer.

"The Stone? I hope you got something better than that. Because ain't nobody stealing from Ronan" Yondu exclaimed.

"We got a ringer" Peter said.

"Is that right?" Yondu said, not convinced by his fake words.

"She knows everything there is to know about Ronan. His ships, his army" Peter said, referring to Gamora who was still struggling to break free.

"He's vulnerable" Gamora said.

"Hey, what do you say, Yondu, huh? Me and you, taking down a mark side-by-side, like the old days" Peter smiled sweetly.

Yondu looked deep again at Peter's face. He was hesitated to make a right choice. Then, he whistled back his arrow into its place and smiled widely at Peter, revealing his ugly and uneven teeth out.

Yondu slung a hand onto Peter's shoulder. Yondu and Peter started to laugh to who knows what and the others soon join.

"Let him go! Oh! You always did have a scrote, boy! That's why I kept you on as a young'un" Yondu ordered and the men that was holding Peter and Gamora releases them.

As Yondu said that, the ship of his began to shake. Everyone then went to the dec where the pilot was. They all saw the Milano approaching Yondu's ship, blasting to get the attention of the captain.

"Captain, the shot was non-damaging" the pilot told Yondu as they all watched the Milano from afar.

"Attention, idiots. The lunatic on top of this craft is holding a Hadron Enforcer" Rocket said while referring to Drax who was wearing his space suit with a giant bazooka on his shoulder. "It's a weapon of my own design" he brag, not knowing that (Y/N) wasn't awake yet.

"What the hell?" Yondu said under his breath.

"If you don't hand over our companions now, he's gonna tear your ship a new one. A very big new one!" Rocket told them.

"I ain't buyin' it" Yondu said.

"I'm giving you to the count of five" Rocket said.

"Five!"

Everyone in the ship began to panic about what to do.

"Four!"

Peter began to approached the microphone.

"Three!"

Peter presses the button of the microphone.

"No!" Peter and Gamora yelled in unison.

"No! Wait, hold on!" Peter shouted as he turned on the radio comm. "Rocket, it's me, for God sakes! We figured it out! We're fine!"

It was silent for a moment.

"Oh, hey, Quill. What's going on?"

Time skip to (Y/N)'s dream

It's him. It's the black armoured guy. He's the one who planned on destroying Xandar. He's the one who planned to lead the humanity to chaos. He's the one who wanted to destroy the entire universe.

Why did she dream about him? Who's this guy? Why did he wanted to make human extinct instantly?

Then, all of the sudden, (Y/N) was sent in a very dark room. She looked around her surrounding but she didn't see anything. It was pitch black. It was so dark that she couldn't see anything.

But soon, a light shine towards her way. She slowly began to walk towards the light. As she was walking there, the light blinded her for a moment before she got used to it. When she opened her eyes, she saw that she was in a strange room.

It was belong to a big purple Titan, called Thanos. She didn't even know who's that is, the name just crossed in her head.

She then got out of the room and looked at her surrounding. She immediately knew that she's in a ship, probably his.

"Where's the stone now?"

She heard a deep voice coming from the throne room. She didn't want to go there but her legs just move by its own.

"O-on the way to Xandar..."

She heard another voice as she peeked through a wall.

"Then, we shall wait"

"W-wait, you say?"

"Yes, we wait. Whenever I got the Infinity Stone in my hand, we shall go to Earth"

"Yes, master"

She heard the guy leaves as the purple guy still sitting on his throne, staring at the door the guy just left.

It went dead silent afterwards. (Y/N) began to walk away, carefully and silent as possible.

"I know you're there. Come out now"

The deep voice called (Y/N) as she froze in her position. She turned and met the blue eyes. She began to shake violently because of fear.

The Titan soon stood up from his throne and made his way to her.

(Y/N) woke up with a sharp gasped escaped her lips. She stood up and panting heavily. Tears were found in her eyes but wasn't rolled down.(Y/N) looked around her and saw that she was in her old room in Yondu's ship.

"How did I got here?" she asked herself.

She put her legs on the ground and began to stand up but soon felt a sharp pain on her left arm. She groaned loudly and sat back on her bed. She lifted up her brand new shirt up and saw that her arm was covered with bandages.

She frowned at the view and remembered that she tried to stop Carina from stealing the stone. She remembered all of the things about Peter, Gamora, Drax, Groot..... and Rocket.

Once she remembered about Rocket, she stood up in instant and walked fast out of her room and went to search for the other friends of hers.

When she opened the door, she was greeted by a loud laugh. It was mostly sounds like... Rocket.

"That's a fake laugh" Peter said.

(Y/N) smiled at her brother's mock. She walked closer to where the source of the sounds.

"It's real!" Rocket said, making (Y/N) walked faster to the sound.

(Y/N) then found her friends, sitting around a circle while she still hidden and waiting for the right moment to show up.

"Totally fake" Peter said again.

"That is the most real, authentic, hysterical laugh of my entire life because that is not a plan" Rocket exclaimed.

"It's barely a concept" Gamora told the others.

"I am Groot"

"So what, it's better than eleven percent? What the hell does that have to do with anything?" Rocket asked Groot, making (Y/N) silently giggled.

"Thank you, Groot. Thank you. See? Groot's the only one of you who has a clue" Peter said.

Peter then turned to look at Groot who was producing a leaf on his shoulder and eats it. Peter sighed and shook his head slowly as Rocket chuckled. (Y/N) was chuckling silently with a hand on her mouth.

"Guys. Come on. Yondu is gonna be here in two seconds. He expects to hear this big plan of ours. I need your help" Peter begged then looked around at his friends. "I look around at us, you know what I see? Losers" he said, making others offended and made (Y/N) frowned.

" I mean, like, folks who have lost stuff. And we have. Man, we have. All of us. Our homes, our families, normal lives. And, usually, life takes more than it gives, but not today. Today, it's given us something. It has given us a chance" he lifted up the spirits.

"To do what?" Drax asked Peter in such a low voice.

"To give a shit. For once, not run away. I, for one, am not gonna stand by and watch as Ronan wipes out billions of innocent lives" Peter said.

"But, Quill, stopping Ronan, it's impossible. You're asking us to die" Rocket said as his courages left his body.

"Yeah, I guess I am. I..." Peter was interrupted by Gamora.

Gamora stood beside Peter and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Quill. I have lived most my life surrounded by my enemies. I will be grateful to die among my friends" she said proudly, making (Y/N) smiled in happiness.

Drax was the next person to stood up.

"You are an honourable man, Quill. I will fight beside you. And in the end, see my wife and daughter again" Drax said, making (Y/N) teared up in his words.

Groot soon followed others to stand up.

"I am Groot" he said.

They all then looked at Rocket who was still sitting. (Y/N) waited patiently for his answers. She doesn't know why but she really wanted to focus on him.

Rocket soon sighed and gave in.

"Oh, what the hell. I don't got that long a lifespan, anyway" Rocket joked, making (Y/N) laughed silently with a tear escaped her eye. He then stood up on his chair earlier. "Now I'm standing. You all happy? We're all standing up now. Bunch of jackasses, standing in a circle"

They all smiled happily at him as (Y/N) decided to show up.

"God... You guys really are such good friends. You really did got me there for a sec"

All of their attentions went to (Y/N) who was walking towards them while wiping her incoming tears. Their smiles widened, including Rocket's.

"(Y/N)!" everyone called out to her as they approaching her.

But Peter pushes everyone away with one push and embraced (Y/N) in a tight hug. Maybe too little tight.

"P-Peter.. T-Too tight.. Can't breath..." (Y/N) said between the lack of her breath.

Peter just chuckled and let go of (Y/N). Peter then looked at the injured arm of hers with a frown.

"How you feeling?" Peter asked his dear sister, making an eye contact with her.

(Y/N) looked at her injured arm and chuckled. She looked back at her brother's eyes.

"I'm feeling better, if you excluded the lack of breath just now. So, I'm fine" (Y/N) said, making others laughed.

"So.. What's the plan?"
