THE GROUP STOOD IN LINE, collecting their food while Rocket explained the plan. Taulana grimaced in disgust as a glop of unidentifiable meat and creaminess was placed on her tray.

"If we're gonna get out of here, we're gonna need to get into that watchtower. And to do that I'm gonna need a few things. The guards wear security bands to control their ins and outs. I need one." Rocket explained.

"Leave it to me." Gamora stated,

A prisoner walked by with a prosthetic leg and Rocket motioned over to him, "That dude, there. I need his prosthetic leg."

"His leg?" Peter questioned,

"Yeah. God knows I don't need the rest of him. Look at him, he's useless." Rocket scoffed,

Peter raised his eyebrows, "Alright."

"And finally, on the wall back there is a black panel. Blinky yellow light. Do you see it?" They set their trays down on the table and turned to look at the light,

"Yeah."

"There's a quarnyx battery behind it. Purplish box, green wires. To get into that watchtower, I definitely need it." Rocket stated,

"How are we supposed to do that?" Taulana questioned, poking at the mystery meat with her utensil,

"Why can't we just wait for my mother to get me out of here? I can convince her to let you guys out, too." Lana stated and Rocket shook his head,

"We can't afford to wait that long." He turned back to Peter, "I got one plan, and that plan requires a frickin' quarnyx battery, so figure it out!" Rocket yelled at the Terran, "Can I get back to it? Thanks. Now, this is important. Once the battery is removed, everything is gonna slam into emergency mode. Once we have it, we gotta move quickly, so you definitely need to get that last." Just as Rocket finished with his statement, an alarm went off the the four turned to see Groot with the quarnyx battery, "Or we could just get it first and improvise."

"I'll get the armband."

"Leg."

Peter and Gamora run off, leaving Rocket and Taulana looking frustrated. The prison security droids began to surround Groot, "Prisoner, drop the device immediately and retreat to your cell, or we will open fire." A guard said through a speaker system,
