The Nova Prime pursed her lips in barely concealed panic, "Ronan is destroying Xandarian outposts throughout the galaxy. I should think that would call for some slight response on the part of the Kree."
However, the Kree ambassador growled irritantly in responsw, "We signed your peace treaty, Nova Prime. What more do you want?
"At least a statement from the Kree Empire saying that they condemn his actions. He is slaughtering children, families."
"That is your business. Now, I have other matters to attend to." And before the Nova Prime could go on any further, the Kree ambassador had ended the call.
"Prick."
"Well, sorry to interupt, but we have some good news. Looks like we've apprehended one of Ronan's compatriots, ma'am." Denarian Saal butted in.
...
Rowan, Peter, the green-woman, the tree-man Groot and the talking Racoon; all five recently-captured offenders have been brought to a prison base to be processed.
"Gamora. Surgically modified and trained as a living weapon. The adopted daughter of the Mad Titan, Thanos. Recently, Thanos lent her and her sister Nebula out to Ronan, which leads us to believe that Thanos and Ronan are working together." The Corpsman's voice sounds out through the speaker, but the emerald-skinned woman doesn't react whatsoever.
Next it was the Racoon.
"Subject 89P13. Calls itself Rocket." 'Rocket' scoffed at that. "The result of illegal genetic and cybernetic experiments on a lower life form."
When Denarian Saal sees the next person, he couldn't help but blurt out, "What the hell?"
"Well, they call it Groot. A humanoid plant-life that has following Subject 89P13 around, becoming his partner-slash-muscle."
Then, next up was Peter. "Peter Jason Quill, from Terra. Raised from youth by a band of mercenaries called the Ravagers, led by Yondu Udonta." Peter winds up his middle finger and flips the bird at them.
"Oops, didn't know how this machine worked." Peter nonchalantly shrugs.
Rowan, who was standing at the side waiting her turn, laughed at her best friend's antics. Even in such a morbid situation, Peter always made time for jokes. Even the speaking Corpsman couldn't help but smile. Even though, the smile had shifted the cut on her cheek, and made her wince.
"You doin' okay there, Star-Prince?" The Corpsman smirked.
Peter grimaced in response.
Last but not least, it was Rowan's turn. She braced herself for what she had to hear.
"Rowan Jean Cho, from Terra. Raised by the Ravagers, same as Peter Quill. A mutant who is known to turn into a black wolf the size of a average full-grown bull."
What a whole lot of bull, Rowan rolled her eyes. But not bad.
"Transport all fiveto the Kyln." The verdict was then made, to transport the five offenders to The Kyln, the High Security Prison of the Nova Corps.
While walking through the prison, there was a crap-load of boasting and awkward moments.
"I guess most of Nova Corps wanna uphold the laws, but these ones here, they're corrupt and cruel. But, hey, that's not my problem. I ain't gonna be here long." The raccoon-like 'Rocket' shrugged nonchalantly, "I've escaped twenty-two prisons, this one's no different. You're lucky the broad showed up, because otherwise, me and Groot would be collecting that bounty right now, and you'd be getting drawn and quartered by Yondu and those Ravagers."
