Chapter 4: Guardians and Doctors

Laying on the orange floor staring at the orange sky was Star-Lord. 'Ah man,' were his last words. He watched his friends turn to dust. His family. He knew that, that meant that they were here. Wherever here was. But he couldn't bring himself to go look around. Scared that he would mess something up. Or find that he was really alone here. He couldn't get Gamora out of his mind.

"Quill?" A very familiar voice called out. Sitting up, Peter saw a familiar red tattooed alien.

"Drax." Quill breathed out relieved. He turned to Mantis, who was right behind him. "Mantis. How'd you find me?"

"That boy over there." Mantis answered, pointing to a a figure waiting in the distance. But when Quill turned to look, no one was there.

"Uh, Mantis no ones there." Quill told her.

"He was there a second ago." Mantis states.

"So he vanished like a wizard doing a magic disappearing trick."

"He's a wizard?" Drax asked.

"What! I don't know it was an expression. It meant that he disappeared. He disappeared into thin air."

"He became the air?" Drax asked confused.

"What!? No! I was explaining what my simile meant." Quill exclaimed.

"Your what?"

"A simile. It's like a metaphor but using the words like or as." Quill explain exasperated. Unfortunately Drax still looked confused, "Never mind. So you guys got here because a boy led you guys here?"

"Yes, that would be correct." Mantis confirmed.

"Okay."

"But before that I was just walking around. I chased after the boy when I saw him. He is very fast. I ended up running into Mantis, while chasing the boy." Drax added.

"Alright? Umm, which way did you last see the boy Mantis?" Quill turned to face her. Mantis pointed behind Quill.

"That way."

"Then let's head in that direction." Quill started walking and Drax and Mantis followed close behind him.

'There was no other way.' Doctor Strange was walking around the orange place called the soul stone. He knew that half of the universe that was wiped away was put inside the soul stone. Strange saw the future, but only for how the war would end. Not for what would happen to those who were dusted. He didn't see any of this in his vision. Strange tried making a portal, but it only opened to another part of the stone. Fortunately one of the times he opened a portal, it opened to where the Guardians were.

"Wow, it's good to see someone we know." Quill stated rushing over to were Strange stood. The portal closing behind him, "do you knew where we are?"

"We are inside the soul stone." Strange answered, his cloak levitating beside him.

"Inside the soul stone?" Quill repeated in a question. Strange nodded. "The Stone Thanos got after killing Gamora."

Drax and Mantis looked at Quill with sad eyes. Strange sighed.

"Yes, this would be the stone he got after killing your girlfriend."

After a moment of silence, Drax looked up and saw a figure.
