Blondie releases Peter and steps away. "Oh." The bug lady looks at me with wide black eyes. "You’re the ones Thor told us about."  I turn my head looking at both of them. "You know Thor?" He shrugs "Yeah. Tall guy, not that good-looking, needed saving." Peter raises his eyebrows and looks at him."Where is he now?"

I stand on the planet Nidavellir with Rocket, Groot, and Eitri. In front of us lays a mold for the weapon I will use to replace my Hammer, I watch as Rocket looks at Eitri in disbelief. "This is the plan? We’re gonna hit him with a brick?"

"It’s a mold. A king’s weapon. Meant to be the greatest in Asgard. In theory, it could even summon the Bifrost."

"Did it have a name?" I ask. He nodded in response "Stormbreaker." Rocket looks at the both of us snorting "That’s a bit much." I ignore his comment and continue with Eitri. "So how do we make it?" 

"You’ll have to restart the forge. Awaken the heart of a dying star." I nod and turn my head to Rocket and address him. "Rabbit, fire up the pod."

I stand with the others as Quill measures the planet’s tilt. In the meantime, the woman with the antennas who they call Mantis is bouncing in a low gravity part of the planet. “The heck happened to this planet? It’s eight degrees off its axis. Gravitational pull is all over the place.” Quill says as he looks around in confusion. “Yeah, we got one advantage. He’s coming to us. We’ll use it. All right, I have a plan. Or at least the beginnings of one. It’s pretty simple. We draw him in, pin him down, and get what we need. Definitely don’t wanna dance with this guy. We just need the gauntlet.” I hear Drax 

yawn and I turn my head to look at him annoyed. “Are you yawning? In the middle of this, while I’m breaking it down? Huh? Did you hear what I said?”

He looks in my direction and shrugs. “I stopped listening after you said, “We need a plan.” I throw my hands up in annoyance looking at Quill. “Okay, Mr. Clean is on his own page. Quill looks at Drax “See, “not winging it” isn’t really what they do. “Uh,” Peter looks around confused, “what exactly do they do?”  

“Kick names, take ass,” Mantis says. Drax shifts into a commanding position next to her "Yeah, that’s right." I look at them and realize that this might be hopeless. "Alright, just get over her, please. Mr. Lord, can you get your folks to circle up?"

"Mr. Lord.” Star-Lord is fine.” he says gesturing to Drax and Mantis to join us. "We gotta coalesce. ‘Cause if all we come at him with is a plucky attitude..” Quill  Interrupts me before I can finish. "Dude, don’t call us plucky. We don’t know what it means. Alright, we’re optimistic, yes. I like your plan. Except it sucks, so let me do the plans, and that way it might be really good."

"Tell him about the dance-off to save the universe." Drax looks at Quill as I raise my eyebrows "What dance-off?" He waves me off when I ask. "It’s nothing," Peter looks in Star-Lord's direction "Like in Footloose, the movie?"

"Exactly like Footloose. Is it still the greatest movie in history?" He asks. 

I look between the both of them not entertained at all. "Don’t encourage this alright, we're not getting any help from Flash Gordan."

"Flash Gordon?" He asks, "That’s a compliment. Don’t forget, I’m half-human. So that 50% of me that’s stupid, that’s 100% you."
