Apophis was heading towards the bottom level of the Dark Aster towards where he heard the commotion of the intruders earlier holding his weapon securely in his hands.

'There somewhere deeper down.' ​​​He thought his eyes  scanning area for a quicker way down to the enemies.

Apophis was pulled out of his thoughts by a familiar grunt up ahead.

"Neb, she got here quickly. Should of figure she beat me," Apophis commented to himself as he rushed ahead and noticed a hole with glowing light coming from it.

He glanced down, heard a thump, and saw Nebula landed successfully on her feet.

"Gamora, look at what you done," Nebula said.

'She needs me more than ever if Gamora is down there. I know she never admitted, but I know she is emotional hurting about their relationship.' Apophis thought with a nod as he secured his weapon preparing to help Nebula.

Apophis carefully leaped down into the shadows, avoiding making a sound thanks to his training as he heard Nebula continue to speak. 

"You always been weak," Nebula stated. "You stupid traitorous..." Nebula was cut off as she blasted by a huge blazing blast, sending her flying back.

'No.' Apophis thought rushed over towards the direction se was sent flying in.

"Nebs, are you okay?" Apophis asked, placing a hand on her back.

Nebula cough and glanced at Apophis. "Don't call me Nebs," She groaned as her body made whirling sounds as she straightened herself out before grabbing her weapon and turned to see Gamora coming into the room.

"Nebula,please, we don't have to do this," Gamora said, holding up her arms slightly.

Apophis gently placed a hand on Nebula's shoulder."You have no right," He said swung his mace at Gamora.

Gamora quickly dodged out of as his mace came close, allowing Nebula to charge forward and attempt an attack until Gamora moved her arms and forced her to turn around as she made a way towards the power source. 

Apophis turned around and swung his mace at Gamora along with Nebula slashing at her with both her weapons preventing her from grabbing it.

"There won't be interfence," Apophis stated as he swung his mace towards Gamora face.

Gamora barely  managed to grab the upper chain of the mace, sending it flying back towards Apophis and hitting him the gut, sending him flying back into the metal  wall. Apophis groaned, rubbing his stomach as he glanced up to see Nebula kicked in the stomach and flying past him through the large hole in the ship.

"Nebs!" Apophis called out as he rushed over to her hanging with her hand caught on a piece of metal.

"Nebula," Gamora said, getting down and reaching for Nebula hand."Sister, help us fight Ronan."

Nebula looked down below, not listening to Gamora.

"You know he crazy," Gamora said. 

'I need to save her before she does what she thinks.' ​​​​Apophis thought, reaching for her free hand.

"I know you're both crazy," Nebula stated, chomping her hand free before she was grabbed by Apophis and pulled towards his chest as they both had fallen down towards the ground. 

"No!" Gamora shouted.

Apophis noticed a small crafter and used his mace to break the window and landed inside, knocking the man out of the window and flying towards the ground.

"You're a fool, Nebs," Apophis muttered as he placed her in seat next to her and took over the controls flying away from the Dark Aster 

"It not Nebs and shut it could of save myself," Nebula stated, barely looking at Apophis. 

"Oh really, you could have," Apophis said, elbowing her side.

"Fine, maybe just this once I admit you were needed. Thanks for saving me," Nebula muttered as she glanced at Apophis."Now, just get this ship somewhere, and we're going separate ways," She said. 

Apophis smiled as he glanced at Nebula, knowing that deep down that was far from what she wanted, seeing it written all over in her body language. 

"If you say so, Nebula, " Apophis commented, putting in coordinates for the safest planet he could think of to lay low for a bit.

Here we go; finally, the final chapter of Guardians of the Galaxy volume 1 has been published. I hope you enjoy the chapter despite it being a short one given. I only focus on the scenes that Apophis was involved in with Nebula. I'm now working on an Au arc focusing on the growth of Apophis and Nebula's relationship before getting into the second movie. I have a idea on how I want it to play out but gladly open to suggestions and comments on what you would love to see in the Au plotline I plan on doing before the events of volume 2.

Thank you, everyone, for taking the time to read my story. The support is appreciated!
