To The Stars {Peter Quill/Star-Lord} (ON HOLD)

Chapter 5

"If we're gonna get out of here, we're gonna need to get into that launch tower." Rocket said as the four were walking to a table with what somehow qualifies as food. "And to do that I'm gonna need a few things."

"What do you need?" I asked him, just wanting to get the hell out of there.

"The guards, they have these security bands that control their ins and outs, I need one." He said.

"Leave it to me." Gamora said.

"That dude there," he said pointing at a dude with a prosthetic leg. "I need his leg."

"His leg?" Peter asked.

"Yeah, God know he doesn't need the rest of him, he's useless."

"Alright." Peter said questionably.

"And, finally, on the wall back there there's a panel, blinky yellow light. You see it?" Rocket said to me.

"Yeah." I said.

"There's a battery back there, purplish box, green wires. To get into that watch tower I defiantly need it."

"How am I supposed to do that, it's like twenty feet up?" I asked questioning his genius plan.

"I don't know, some of the guys here must find you attractive, so I guess you can work that out."

"You're kidding right?" I said to him, but I noticed Peter squirm in his seat a bit.

"No, she doesn't need to do that, I'll get it." Peter said.

"HA! Quill wants to help the lady!" Rocket said as I rolled my eyes. "No, she's getting it."

"But-" Peter started, just before Rocket interrupted him.

"She's got this Quill, just let her do it."

"But it's, like she said twenty feet in the air and in the most heavily guarded part of the prison."

"I got one plan, and that plan requires that battery, so figure it out! Now, this is important, once the battery is removed, everything will go into lock down mode, so that's why we're getting it last." Just as Rocket finished, all the lights went off and an alarm sounded. We all looked back and saw Groot with the battery. "Or we can just get it first and improvise."

"I'll get the arm band." Gamora said quickly moving.

"Leg." Peter said walking in the opposite direction.

"I'll just go with Peter." I said getting up and following behind him. "I guess we won't be catching up anytime soon." I said to him as we walk/ran to the leg guy.

"On my ship," he said "I'm sure you'd like to know what happened to me and vise versa. Wait, there he is." He finished pointing at the guy.

We just walked over to where he was sitting, not really sure what to say. After a few moments of silence, I finally piped up "Hey dude, can we have your leg?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Well, that was pretty awkward." I said as we left, Peter carrying the prosthetic leg in his hand.

"What the hell does he even need a prosthetic leg for?" Peter asked me, assuming that I would know.

"Drop the leg!" We heard a guard yell at us "Drop the leg and go back to your cells!"

Peter began to lower the leg, but then he hit the guy across the face knocking him out.

"Hell yeah!" I said as Peter handed me the gun off of the guard's unconscious body. We began to run back to the watch tower, and saw Groot extending his legs making a ladder up to the tower.

"You go up first!" Peter said, and I through the gun on the ground and began to climb up Groot. Peter followed right after me, with the leg in in-between his neck and chin. "Oh shit." He said, and I looked over to see a probe about to shoot us, until it was brought down and ripped in half by the Drax guy.

"You!" Drax said pointing at Peter "Man who has lain with Oscabarian"

I snorted really loud and Peter sighed "It was one time man." Drax followed behind us and we met the others. Rocket opened the door, and we all stood there looking super bad-ass. The guard immediately surrendered and Groot picked him up and threw him out the door.

"Holy shit, we looked so cool!" I said excitedly and ready to kick the universe's ass.

Gamora looked over at Drax with hatred. "Spare me your foul gaze woman!" Drax said to her.

"What is he doing here?" She asked Peter and me.

"We promised him he could stay by your side until he kills your boss. I always keep my promises when there are muscled out wack-jobs that could kill me if I don't." Peter said as he laid down the leg "Here's your leg."

"Oh, I was just kidding about the leg." Rocket said to us.

"What!?" I said to him.

"I thought it would be funny! Was it funny? What did he look like hopping around?"

"We had to trade him Thirty thousand units!" Peter almost yelled at him.

"I-I thought you were in on it" Rocket said to me in-between laughs.

"No, I wasn't in on it!" Peter looked at me annoyed "I swear I wasn't." I said a bit quieter to him.

"How are we gonna leave?" Drax said right as some drones came up and started shooting at the windows.

"Have you got a plan? Or was that just a joke too?" Peter asked Rocket.

"I have a plan, I have a plan!" Rocket said.

"Cease your yapping, and lead us out of this solitary confinement." Drax said.

"Yeah, I have to agree with the walking thesaurus over here." Peter said.

"Do not ever call me a thesaurus."

"It's just a metaphor dude."

"Oh, his people are completely literal. Any metaphor will go over his head." Rocket said explaining the situation.

"Nothing will go over my head. My reflexes are too fast, shall catch it." Drax said, and I couldn't help but to burst out laughing. "Why are you laughing woman?" he asked me with a completely serious face, making me laugh more.

"Nothing." I said as continued laughing.

"I'm surrounded by the biggest idiots in the galaxy." Gamora muttered.

"Hey," I said still laughing "I find that somewhat offensive!" I said to her, but she just rolled her eyes. Then all of us saw a bunch of guards come out and surround the tower with their gigantic guns.

"Those are some big guns." Peter said.

"Thanks, Captain Obvious." I said.

"On my command!" The leader of the guards said "Number 1!" then, one of the guards shot at us, leaving a crack in the window.

"Rodent, we are ready for your plan!" Gamora said to Rocket.

"Hold on!" He yelled at us.

"Number 2!" The guard yelled, and then another person shot at us, leaving the window closest to Peter cracked.

"I recognize this animal!" said Drax at the wrong time. "Their flesh is quite delicious."

"That's gross." I said.

"Number 3!" The guard yelled, but this time when the window was hit, some of the glass fell out, which would allow them to shoot us down.

"OPEN FIRE, ON MY COMMAND!" he yelled.

"Shit." I muttered.
