"No offense, but your employees are a bunch of jerks." Rocket told him, sitting down.
"I was a Kree battle slave for 20 years when Stakar freed me. He offered me a place with the Ravagers. He said all I needed to do was adhere to the code. But I was young... and greedy, and stupid. Like you stealing those batteries."
"That was mostly Drax." Rocket muttered.
"Me and Stakar and the other captains... we weren't so different from you and your friends. The only family I ever had. When I broke the code... they exiled me. This is what I deserve." Yondu sounded pitiful.
"Slow down, drama queen." Rocket told him, "You might deserve this, but I don't. We gotta get outta here. Where's Quill? He went off with his old man."
"- Ego?" Yondu asked.
"- Yeah. It's a day for dumbass names." Rocket said, Yondu laughed, "You're smiling. And for a second, I got a warm feeling.But then it was ruined by those disgusting teeth. You like a professional jerk face or what?"
"Pretty much a pro." Rocket shrugged.
"Why didn't you deliver Quill to Ego like you promised?" I asked a question I'd wondered before."
"He was skinny. Could fit into places we couldn't. Good for thievin'." I could tell Yondu was lying.
"Uh-huh."
"I got an idea on how to get outta here. But we're gonna need your little friend."
"Sure thing, Yon Yon." I smirked.
"You guy know each other?" Rocket asked.
"It's a long story..." I trailed. Then we saw Groot.
Yondu smiled, "Psst. Hey, twig! Come here. Come on
"Aw, man..." Rocket asked, "what did they do to you?"
"Hey, you wanna help us get outta here?" Yondu asked, Groot nodded, "There's something I need you to get and bring back to me. In the captain's quarters, there's a prototype fin... the thing I wore on my head. There's a drawer next to the bunk. It's in that. It's red. You got it?" Groot came back with a dirty looking pair of underwear.
"That's my underwears."
"Yeah, I was pretty sure he didn't know what you were talkin' about. You have to explain it more careful." Rocket told him.
"It's a prototype fin."
"SCREEECH!!!"
"That's an orloni. It's a fin, Groot."
"You explain it this time. All right."
Awkward silence...
"That's Vorker's eye...." Yondu said, "He takes it out when he sleeps."
"Go. Look again. But leave the eye here."
"Why?" Yondu asked.
"He's gonna wake up tomorrow... and he's not gonna know... where his eye Is!"
Rocket laughed. Me and Yondu exchanged looks.Groot pulled in a large heavy item. I sighed, having given up a long time ago.
"That's a desk."
"We told you it was this big."
I only got interested when Groot returned with a human toe.
"Tell me you guys have a refrigerator somewhere... with a bunch of severed human toes." I told Yondu. Yondu shook his head.
"Okay. Then let's just agree to never discuss this." Rocket told us. We all agreed.
"The drawer you wanna open has this symbol on it. Okay?" Yondu handed Groot his Ravager symbol. Groot tried to wear as a hat.
"What? No!"
"He thinks you want him to wear it as a hat." Rocket told Yondu.
"That's not what I said!"
"I am Groot."
"He's relieved you don't want him to."
"- I am Groot."
"- He hates hats."
"I am Groot."
"On anyone, not just himself."
"I am Groot."
"One minute you think someone has a weird-shaped head... the next minute it's just because you realize part of that head is the hat." Rocket turned to Groot, "That's why you don't like hats?"
" is this an important conversation right now?"
"I didn't mean to do a mutiny. They killed all my friends." Kraglin told Yondu.
"Get the third quadrant ready for release." Kraglin turned to so as Yondu said.
"One more thing." Rocket grinned, "You got any clones of Quill's old music on the ship?"
We walked through the halls, an arrow killing all of those around us. I chased down the ones that Yondu missed.
"Just like old times huh?" I asked Yondu, "I get the ones you miss, and you miss a lot while killing a lot." I grinned.
"Shuddup." Yondu muttered. We reaches the security room, and the arrow attacked everyone in sight of the camera. I used the shadows to get the rest. Yondu destroyed the ship's power source.
"You maniac." Rocket growled, "The whole ship's gonna blow."
"Not the whole ship." Yondu smirked.
