The Sovereign

"Showtime, a-holes!" Peter announced, reading off the device in his hand. Above the Guardians a storm brewed and rumbled with thunder. "It'll be here any minute."

"Which will be it's loss." Gamora commented, preparing her large gun.

"I thought your thing was a sword." Peter got a little possessive.

"We've been hired to stop an interdimensional beast from feeding on those batteries and I'm gonna stop it with a sword?" Gamora sassed. "Even Astra's using a gun and you've seen how she works with her blade."

"It's just, swords were your thing and guns were mine." Peter defended, Gamora looked back at her sister to share an eye roll as the guy continued. "But, I guess we're both doing guns now. I just didn't know that."

"Drax, why aren't you wearing one of Rockets aero-rigs?" The green girl worried. Her sister muttered under her breath about being unappreciated after she helped make the device.

"It hurts." The big guy gave as his excuse.

"It hurts?" Gamora repeated in a question form.

"I have sensitive nipples." He barely spoke, being embarrassed to say it.

He had a reason to not want to say it. Rocket began to laugh loudly and mock. "'My nipples hurt! Oh goodness, me!'" He continued to laugh.

"What about him? What's he doing?" The main focus got turned to the raccoon who was hunched over a stereo.

"I'm finishing this so we can listen to tunes while we work." Rocket responded.

"How it that a priority?" Drax wondered.

"Blame Quill!" He was quick to answer in a half shout. "He's The one who loves music so much."

"No. I actually agreed with Drax on this." Peter sided, Drax pointing to show he's right. "That's hardly important right now."

"Okay. Sure, Quill." Rocket said sarcastically, his left eyes twitching as Astra looked confused at what he was trying to do.

"No, seriously. I side with Drax." Peter said in all seriously.

"Well, for me," Astra butt in with an opinion slash fact, holding her hands up a bit. "The beat keeps me in rhythm. Basically, it helps when taking down a monster. I usually listen to some AC/DC, Zed Zeppelin, Nirvana-."

"Ash, we don't know who your talking about." Quill interrupted with a confused expression.

"Well, you should." She replied with a 'duh' kind of face. "It's there where you'll find the best music ever."

Peter had a sort of shocked and offended face, quickly dismissing the subject. "But, I really don't think we should be working about that." Quill repeated.

"No, I understand that. You're being very serious right now." Rocket winked with his left eye.

"I can clearly see you winking." Drax got annoyed with him.
