Some nights I talk to myself
I said the words that I could say to no one else
And some nights I talk in my sleep
I said the words that I could say to no one else

"Here we are," Quill exclaims. Other than Hala, this is the most beautiful planet we've been to. Bright and full of life, the people of Xandar bustle around us excitedly.
"Good to be back." Rocket says.
"This is where we met, you know," Quill whispers to Gamora, elbowing her softly with a grin. "You flirted with me and then attacked me for a glowing orb."
"That 'orb' was important." Gamora mutters, though there's a small smile on her face. "And that was totally worth it."
"I agree," Quill says with a smile. I watch them affectionately as Quill squeezes her hand. They really are a cute couple.
"Who are we meeting again?" Peter asks. His legs fall in tandem with mine as we walk behind Rocket and Groot.
"An old friend," Quill responds. I raise an eyebrow.
"I know that's cool in movies and stuff, Quill, but that still gives us no information on who we're actually meeting." I point out.
"Well, well, well! My old pals!" A man with curly hair and a wide smile in an odd looking suit approaches us.
"Dey!" Quill exclaims, giving the man a hug.
"I'm assuming this is the old friend?" Carol asks.
"Yeah, this dude has arrested me like five times," Quill says happily, and the man laughs.
"It's true." He admits. "What are you all doing back here?"
"We need a favor," Gamora replies.
"Well, I do owe you one." He says with a chuckle.
"Our ship got dinged up pretty bad. We need some replacement parts and a place to stay." Rocket says. The man scoffs.
"Are you kidding? After everything you guys did for us? That's the least we could do." He says. "Come on inside - I'm sure the Nova Prime will be happy to see you all. Oh, and where are my manners? For those of you who I haven't had the pleasure of arresting, I'm Denarian Rhomann Dey of the NovaCorps. Welcome to Xandar."
"This place is so cool," Peter marvels.
"We think so, too," Dey responds cheerfully.
"What does Denarian mean?" I ask as we continue to walk.
"It means that he could probably arrest us even faster than he had in the past." Quill answers, and Dey shoots him a teasing look.
"That's not going to need to happen, right?" He asks, and Gamora nods.
"We're done with trouble." Gamora confirms.
"Speak for yourself," Rocket says. "If I see something shiny, I'm taking it." Dey laughs.
