Chapter 3: Group Of Morons

The guardians travel through space in their ship. They are moving to respond to the distress signal that the Asgardians sent out. They arrive at the site of the signal and are mortified by the sight in front of them. Bodies and rubble float around before them. Among the wreckage is Thor and Aloisia, still wrapped together.

"What happened?" Mantis asks, looking out at the wreckage.

"oh my god" Quill mumbles

"Looks like we're not getting paid" Rocket says looking back to the others. With a thump, Thor's body is plastered to the hull of the ship. Aloisia still wrapped around his arms.

Rocket, Waving his hands, says "Wipers! Wipers! Get 'em off"

Thor's eye opens and the Guardians gasp. Hauling the bodies inside the ship to, and begin tending to the still unconscious Thor. They place Thor and LAoisia on two separate tables, upon realise that they an are both alive.

"How the hell is this dude still alive?" Quill asks as rocket sniffs Thor. Quill then turns to Aloisia, "and how is she alive?"

"He is not a dude. You're a dude. This... This is a man. A handsome, muscular man" Drax corrects, "and this is a strong woman. She looks like a warrior"

"I'm muscular"

"Who are you kidding, Quill? You're one sandwich away from fat" rocket adds

"Yeah, right"

"It's true. You have put on weight..." drax motions to his chin and belly

"What? Gamora, do you think I'm..." Quill begins, but Gamora ignores him, looking at the two bodies in front of them,

Mantis uses her powers to see the emotions of Thor, as her antenna light up "He is anxious. Angry. He feels tremendous loss and guilt" she then moves towards Aloisia. "She is grieving. Furious. Fear, but not for herself, for others. She misses someone"

"It's like a pirate had a baby with an angel" Drax says, still marvelling at Thor

"Wow. This is a real wake-up call for me. Okay. I'm gonna get a Bowflex. I'm gonna commit. I'm gonna get some dumbbells" Quill says, still focusing on his weight.

"You know you can't eat dumbbells, right?" Rocket jokes

Gamora looks over to Aloisia, "this injury is strange, it seems like it's been stitched up with energy" Gamora mumbles, assessing Als injured shoulder. "It's like his muscles are made of Cotati metal fibers" Gamora says as she takes Thors arm in her hands.

"Stop massaging his muscles. Wake him up" Gamora drops his arm as mantis moves to wake Thor

"Wake" Mantis says.

Thor shoots up from the table with a yell, frighting the guardians. He grunts, panting heavily as he turns to face them "Who the hell are you guys?"

"The Guardians of the galaxy" Quill says proudly. But Thor spares him no time as he sees Aloisia. The god runs over to her.

"Al" he places a hand on her shoulder. "Is she okay?" Thor says, looking up at the group. Mantis nods, waking her like she did Thor. Aloisia shoots up like Thor did. But collapses back down with a groan. She lays there, willing shadows to form around her, beginning to heal some of her injures, her shoulder that has been reopened, stitching back together. She passes them over to Thor and allows them to attempt to stitch the God up too. Aloisia knows she still have some internal injuries she can't sort out but she knows she went die from them.

Thor smiles, "thats new" Aloisia nods with a small grin. "I like it"

"Okay what the hell is going on?" Quill asks.
