My Reason For Living

Storming and Sacrificing

One of Yondu's men entered the room and called for them to explain the big plan they had. Peter took a deep breath and motioned for them to follow him.

They entered a large room with screens set up in a circle in the middle. Gamora steps into the circle and pulls up a picture of the infinity stone inside the orb that Ronan now had.

"This is what is inside of the orb. It's called an Infinity Stone. The stone reacts to anything organic. The bigger the target, the bigger the power surge." Gamora explained to the large crew. Peter steps next to her and nods with a serious expression.

"All Ronan's gotta do is touch the stone to the planet's surface and zap. All plants, animals, Nova Corps." He said looking at everyone there.

"Everything will die." Gamora add in.

Peter stepped forward and pointed at the screen that had a picture of Ronan's ship and Xandar. "So. Ronan does not make the surface. Rocket will lead a team to blow a hole in the Dark Aster's starboard hull. Then our craft and Yondu's will enter."

"I think of Sakaaran as paper people." Drax mutters and Kraglin grins at him, giving him a friendly punch in the shoulder. Drax, not understanding the jester, gives him a death glare. Sarah whispers to him.

"It's means he like your comment."

Drax looks at her and nods, backing off. They turn back to Gamora who had continued to speak.

"Once they know we're on board, Ronan will isolate himself behind impenetrable security doors on deck. Which I can disable by dismantling the power source." She said and Peter pointed to another picture on one of the screens.

"We'll make it to the flight deck, and I'll use the Hadron Enforcer to kill Ronan."

One of the crew members begins to pass out a type of device that looked like the orb. Gamora explained what they were for. "Once is dead, we will retrieve the stone. Use these devices to contain it."

Peter continues to talk once they were pass out. "I'll contact one of the Nova officers who arrested us. Hopefully, they'll believe we're there to help."

Rocket steps next to Peter and faces the crew. "There's one more thing to complete the plan." He points up to one of Yondu's men who had a robotic eye. "That guy's eye..."

Sarah began to giggle while covering her mouth with her hand.

Peter quickly steps forward and shakes his head frantically, waving his arms in front of him. "No! No, we don't need that guy's eye."

"No, seriously, I need it! It's important to me." Rocket says, covering his mouth to keep from laughing.

Sarah continues to giggle as they walked to get changed.

As Sarah zipped up the new outfit she found, Rocket walked past the room, stopping and walked back, when he saw she was in there.

"There you are. Hurry up we gotta get goin'. Peter's got the Milano all ready and he's waiting for you." He said leaning in the door frame with his huge gun.

Sarah looked at him and nodded. "Ok. I'm all done anyways." She walked a few steps out of the room, when Rocket's voice stopped her.

"Wait!

She turned around and looked at him confused. "Yes? What is it?"

He walked up to her as she got down on her knee to lower herself to his height.

"Listen, Sarah, no matter what happens, Whether we live or die through all this, I just want to let you know." Rocket says, cradling Sarah's face gently in his hands. "I will love you until I die."
