(Anna)
I couldn't believe this. Peter Quill was standing in front of me.
"Wow! What the hell? How-?!" Peter laughed.
"I thought you were dead!" I broke out laughing as well. "You went missing! Vanished! How did you end up out here?"
Everyone was looking at us with very confused faces.
"I was abducted!" He said, smiling widely. "How'd you become a Queen?!"
"The previous King set me free from a prison on Earth, brought me here." It was technically the truth.
"Where's he at?" he shook his head quickly. "Prison? You?"
"He's dead. And her being in prison is beyond the point at hand." Said Torren.
I shot him a murderous look.
I turned back to Peter. "What were you doing, Peter?"
"Stealing."
"Obviously."
He laughed. "You haven't changed at all!"
"You have. You're louder than you used to be." I frowned. "I was sorry to hear about your mom."
His face fell slightly. "Yea."
"Anna." Torren said.
I rolled my eyes. "Peter. Why were you stealing from Asgard? Of all places?"
"Honestly, someone paid me a lot of money to steal something, anything from the weapons vault."
My face went blank. "How'd you get in."
"Easy. The guy sent me this device that was supposed to disable all alarm and lock systems. It worked great."
I shot a look at Thor. He nodded his head once, and turned to leave, knowing what I wanted him to do.
"Who was this man?" I asked sternly.
"Dunno. Never met him. I just saw the first payment and went with it." Peter shrugged his shoulders.
I gritted my teeth.
"Put him in a cell." Torren said.
"No!" I exclaimed. "No." I turned back to Peter. "He stays with me, for the time being."
"He's a criminal, Anna. A criminal who got in our weapons vault." He said harshly.
"He's my friend. I'll take care of this." I pointed towards the door. "Go."
After a moment, he left, stomping down the hall in anger.
I shooed the guards away, leaving me alone with Peter.
Someone had used his to test our defenses. And they had gotten an A+.
