Same Day: The Kyln Prison
Inside: Cafeteria 🌹

After everyone got dressed in their prison gear, except for Groot who's arms have grown fully back, two guards shove single rolled blankets to their stomachs and they move on towards the main area where the inmates eat and hang out.

Peter and Rose stay close as they look around the room, Rose looks up and notices a guard tower to watch over the prisoners.

One female inmate sitting down at a table, looking at a hologram of 3 people waving at her, she gets teary and wipes the tears away as she continues to watch the hologram. Other prisoners are eating or socializing with other prisoners.

Suddenly, Peter gets hit in the face by a piece of food, Rose looks at Peter and they both look to the side to see prisoners on the second floor, shouting, threatening and throwing stuff at Gamora.

Prisoner 1 points at Gamora, "You first! You first!"

Prisoner 2 shouts, "Murderer!"

Prisoner 1 shouts threateningly, "Coming for you first, Gamora!" Peter and Rose look at gamora.

Prisoner 3 shouts at Gamora, "You're dead!"

Prisoner 4 throws something at Gamora, "You're scum! You're scum!" Gamora flinches a bit as something hits her left arm and she looks around the prison at the people shouting and threatening her, she sighs. Rose looking at Gamora and sees a look of fear flash across her face but it disappears.

Rocket tells Peter and Rose, "It's like I said, she's got a rep." Peter puts his hand on Rose's lower back as they all continue to walk across area, "A lot of prisoners here have lost their families to Ronan and his goons. She'll last a day, tops."

Prisoner 5 shouts at Gamora behind her, "Murderer!"

Rose asks Rocket as she looks down at him on her left, "The guards will protect her, right?"

Rocket answers Rose, "They're here to stop us from getting out. They don't care what we do to each other inside."

Gamora tells them, "Whatever nightmares the future holds,-" Rose and Peter look over their left shoulders to Gamora who looks at Rose with a hard look, "-are dreams compared to what's behind me." They stop walking, Peter and Rose turns back forward to continue but quickly and abruptly stop as there's a tall blue monstrous inmate looking down at the couple.

The monstrous inmate looks mostly at Rose, "Check out the new meat." He looks at Peter and runs the back of his fingers across Peter's face, "I'm gonna slather you up in Gunavian jelly,-" Peter's face twists in disgust as he tries to lean away, Groot coming up behind him, the blue monstrous inmate chuckles, "-and go to town-" Suddenly, Groot uses his right two fingers and inserts them into the blue monstrous inmate's nostrils, making him scream and the whole room goes quiet.

Rocket speaks loudly towards the other inmates as Groot lifts the blue monstrous inmate who is holding onto his arm desperately, "Let's make something clear." He points to Rose and Peter who looks at Groot shocked, "These two here is our booty!" Rocket points to himself by patting his chest with his right fist a couple times, "You wanna get to them, you go through us! Or, more accurately, we go through you." Groot then roughly takes out his fingers as he drops the blue monstrous inmate to the ground who's curled into a ball, holding his nose and sobbing loudly. Groot steps over him casually and walks off with Rocket following him.

Peter looks around the room and points to Groot and Rocket's direction, saying loudly, "We're with them." He grabs Rose's right hand and they step over the sobbing blue monstrous inmate.
