"What are you doing!?" He demanded. "You think you can just run to the people you want to save, but you can't."
He's right. I couldn't save my dad, Julia or Davin. But I want to save my best friend. No, my brother.
"I love you, but Peter's my brot...

Rocket's POV
I sat on the ship in despair. I left Quill, Yondu, and Rex behind. Rex insisted and now she could be dead. My wife. The love of my life, could very well be dead.
I heard a knock on the door. I turn my head, it was Groot. "I am Groot" he says, pointing to outside. Quill made it back to the ship! My heart started racing. Yondu or Rex could be alive!
I ran out of the room and saw Quill holding Yondu bridal style. He looked like he was crying. His eyes were red and I saw tear stains on his face in the light. "Where's Rex?" I ask.
The team was staring at Quill with tears in their eyes. I looked to the right. Drax was holding Rex. She looked pale and lifeless. Sure Rex is pale, but not all that pale. I was getting scared. I ran up to Drax. "I'll put her in your room, you're two small and weak to carry her" Drax said. I growled.
I fallowed Drax into my room. My heart is racing. I was trying to believe that she was still alive. But I knew that she was most likely dead.
Drax put her on the bed. "I'll leave you two alone" He decides as he leaves.
I grab Rex's hand. It was cold. I look at her chest. It was red. I jumped onto her and got a better look. Her chest was bleeding.
I jump off of her and spotted white bandages. I grabbed them and jumped back onto Rex. I lifted her up slightly. I began wrapping her chest. I secured the bandages and put Rex back down. I just stared at her. I felt her pulse. I couldn't feel one. She was dead.
I was angry but sad at the same time. It's her own damn fault that she's dead. It was my fault. I didn't stop her. I didn't taze her like I did, Gamora.
But, the love of my life was dead. I began sobbing into Rex's leather jacket.

Rex's POV
My eyes fluttered open. All I saw were Rocket's eyes like he was kissing me. I felt a gasp of air as he broke the kiss. "Rex!" He exclaimed. He pulled me into a hug. But it hurt. I hugged back, trying not to hurt myself.
We broke the hug. "God damn it, never try to get yourself killed again" Rocket orders. "How long have I been dead?" I ask. "About three days" he replies.
THREE DAYS?! Okay, it's not that bad. But still, I thought being in my memories and what felt like Heaven, was only an hour. But no, three days?
"How are you alive?" He asks. "More importantly, how did you die? You have healing."
That was something that really did stump me. I did have healing. So how did I die. And how did I survive? "I don't know" I reply. "I'll take you to a doctor on Xander after we get the Milano and up and running again" Rocket decides. My lips manage to form a smile. He smiles back. "Well, an old friend might wanna see you" Rocket reminds me.
