Chapter 184: Chapter 183: Chat Group’s plans.
Even without Ryan's intervention, the Avenger's group on Earth would have come to existence because of Nick Fury. However, the Guardian's of the Galaxy didn't have someone in the shadows, trying to get the misfits to band together to monitor them better.
OneEyedCyclop: That's where I come in.
Nick Fury from another world has created a plan to force the group together before the time comes. It was proven a challenge for him as the universe is vast and filled with unlimited choices. He based it on the Guardian's team up all over the multiverse and come out with a plan.
Hydra: So. I am a villain in this one?
Mythic: Aren't you always the villain?
RedWidow: Yeah, don't act like a saint now! (Eyeroll.gif)
Thrud: Is this how it always is here? I can get behind this.
GreenWitch: Yeah. Our daily quest is to bash @Hydra and sometimes @VampireKid. Those who don't finish the quest will be replacing them as the target.. (Sly.gif)
TheDoctor: Add @GreenWitch along the target today. She's been annoying me for weeks now.
GreenWitch: OH COME ON! Do you know how hard is it to live in a harem world? Except the Prince, no one other males are good enough to be considered. I spent a long time trying to escape being a harem prospect!
TheDoctor: Yeah, by annoying me every single waking moment.
Mythic: @TheDoctor Has your child been born?
TheDoctor: Yeah. 201 of them were born earlier this week.
VampireKid: Wait. Is that a typo? 201?
TheDoctor: …..No
Everyone in the group was silent for a while, trying to comprehend the new information they'd gotten.
Hydra: 201…Kids…how? Teach me- No I mean…Why?
TheDoctor: Most of them were genetically cultivated in the labs. But Alice does just give birth to healthy twins. After the end of the world, and nothing much to do. We just spend our time here to f**k. Now let's get back to the topic. Guardian of the Galaxy. The major player is Peter Quill right?
OneEyedCyclop: Peter Quill, Groot, Rocket, and Gamora. Others can be added later.
Hydra: What about Drax? Gamora is here. In fact I'm speaking with her now.
OneEyedCyclop: Good. Influence her to your side for a while before Peter Quill comes to meet you. Also, Don't negotiate with Xandar. Leave that to the earthlings.
Hydra: Yeah I understand that. The emissary from Earth will go to Xandar in a few weeks after I prepare them for it. It will also be good for the world summit if the negotiation happens before then.
OneEyedCyclop: Is your world still resistant to it?
Hydra: Not the people. The people are freaking excited for it. I purposely leaked the design for the space elevator, and it's all people have been talking about .
OneEyedCyclop: I understand. The government huh. That is the problem when you go in the peaceful direction.
RetiredMechanic: Yeah. You should conquer the world. And it will be freaking easy.
Hydra: I'm sorry, How many worlds have you conquered? You can't even conquer a girl. Speaking of girls, do you still have Aurora big mommy milker potions?
RetiredMechanic: I have it before you bring up my single status. (middlefinger.gif)
VampireKid: It's time for you to seduce an alien woman. (Rubbinghandstogether.gif)
GreenWitch: Isn't he always an alien? Wait!! @RetiredMechanic won't you get into trouble if you pursue Aurora? Isn't she a Beyond Grade A?
Mrs. J: So…we can say that…he needs to 'Prepare for trouble?' Still. You pursue her because of the chest right?
Mephisto: And make it double. Double Mega Mommy milkers. Anyone have time to collaborate with me? I have an idea on why some of the mutants have deformed appearances.
TheDoctor: For genetics based research, me or Hydra is the best choice to be your partner. However, both of us don't have time at this moment. (Babies.gif) (Emperor.gif)
KickBaal: What about me as a partner? (Laughs.gif)
Mephisto: Piss off Barbarian. Go break some rocks and knock some girls with a bat to bring to your cave.
KickBaal: I've already kicked Baal's ass. Don't make me come for Mephisto next.
Mythic: I can collaborate. I think. I am focusing more on genes right now.
Mephisto: Good enough. Also, remember that you still owe @Hydra a thousand pseudo-war god serum.
Mythic: Ugh. Fucking emperor. Couldn't let me rest even for a bit.
Hydra: IT WASN'T ME WHO BRING IT UP!!!
RedWidow: How is it @Hydra? Can you cultivate using the force there?
Hydra: Unexpectedly. I can. And it's compatible with any type of energy I want it to support.
While chatting with a chat group, Gwen walked into his office. She only placed his document there before she wanted to walk away, but Ryan pulled her into his lap.
"What?" Gwen asked, acting meekly in his arms.
"Just checking something. How's your progress?"
Gwen furrowed her brows as he asked that. "Can't you stay in the mood here?"
"Haha, my bad." He laughed softly and kissed her forehead. "I don't want to work today. Let's go home."
"Wait. Seriously?"
"Yup. I have been working non-stop. and…I have someone I need to destroy sooo…"
Gwen's eyes were glittering when he talked about a fight.
"Can I come? What are you fighting against?"
"An abomination in another world. He is also called…the hive."
…
The Arcadia. Skrulls civilization line.
"Is that her? The one called the most dangerous woman in the galaxy?" Hela asked, watching Gamora up and down to study the visitor.
"Yeah. With you being locked up. Any third rate warrior could claim to be the most dangerous woman.." Meowth said, shamelessly bottlicking the Goddess of Death.
"Why did she want to meet Dawn? Isn't Thanos an enemy?" Park Shin asked. She also turned to look at the Xandar emissary when she said that. Gia has a sharp look on her face, seemingly wanting to lunge and tie up Gamora, throwing her into a cell and leaving her there for eternity.
"Don't know. I want to blow up her spaceship, but he seems interested in her." Hela replied. Park Shin widened her eyes and watched Hela with a weird look on her face.
"You don't mind him searching for other wifes?" She teased.
"I don't." Hela answered, stunning Park Shin. "In fact, I even encouraged him to do so."
"What-"
"I even asked him if he wanted you as a concubine."
"WHAT!!"
"Too bad he isn't interested in kids." Hela grinned while Park Shin mind was short-circuited again.
A warrior and the future king. That's what she considers who she is. She didn't think that she could become someone's wife, that's why she asked Dawn to take a concubine. Although her feelings conflicted, she was secretly relieved that Dawn didn't have any other intention to take another companion.
And even if he did, she thinks that they will greatly enjoy it — if love wasn't in the equation.
In the ship's hangar, Gamora climbed out from the small sized necrocraft and walked toward the Mandalorian that was waiting for her.
Her eyes widened instantly and she reached for her sword when the Mandalorian took out his black sword. However, the sword was not meant for her. He threw the sword on the spaceship's lower hull, and it destroyed the tracking and monitoring equipment that Thanos had planted on the ship.
"You didn't have a chip on you like your sister right?" The Mandalorian asked in a calm voice despite Gamora's vigilance.
"No." Gamora answered after looking at the place the sword had penetrated. She almost unmasked herself in front of her father without her even knowing about it. Thanos wouldn't track Gamora if it was an easy matter.
Since the time he heard her report from when he asked her to find the soul stone, a seed of doubt grew inside of Thanos that the daughter that he loved was keeping something from him.
"Did you know about Nebula?" Gamora asked, putting her sword on her waist, her grip was still on the handle.
"I know she's a Luphomoid. It would be stupid to upgrade her without putting some sort of monitoring on her."
"You talk as if she's an object."
"Barely a being. The object was quite right." Mandalorian said, purposely instigating Gamora.
She held herself from arguing with the Mandalorian, or cutting at his head. The impulse of getting Dawn to take care of Thanos also diminishes a little bit. People can know a lot of things about someone by the people that we surround ourselves with.
And one thing Gamora knew for sure about the ship's crew, was that they were merciless. She won't defend herself or her sister as she was the one most clear about the atrocities they had done under Thanos' order. The hate and presumptions that people have on her was normal.
She could feel people's stares as she walked toward the Captain's cabin. She held her head high as she walked past them, not because she was proud of what she had done, but because she would suffocate if she didn't.
"Welcome. Gamora. Daughter of Thanos." Dawn welcomed her as she walked into his room.
"You know. The Xandarians in the next room want me to let them handle you. Presumably to lock you up for what you have done. So tell me Gamora. On what grounds do you stand that makes you so confident you can negotiate with me?"
"Dawn Everstar. Leader of the insurrection of the galaxy. Natural enemy of the tyrant. If your title was true, then you understand that my father, is the biggest tyrant in the world."
"I do. "
"Then. You have my undying loyalty to you. In your fight against my father. I will also provide you all the information that you need to know to emerge victorious in the battle."
"That's great and all. But what makes you think that your loyalty is worth more than my friendship with Xandar if I turn you in?"
"Because you didn't care. Don't you?"
Dawn chuckled and patted her shoulder. "Yeah. I don't."
The Xandarians who were waiting nearby grimaced their faces when they heard about his answer. Hela grinned softly, falling more and more in Dawn's villain type personality.
Unknown to her, Dawn wasn't acting. When people were close with someone, their impression of that person was built from the interactions between them. The image that Dawn had inside the crew's mind was a kind man, and they couldn't relate that image of him with the villain in front of them – making them unconsciously think that Dawn was acting.
He released his hand and said. " I don't need your loyalty."
"Why?" Gamora asked, waiting for Dawn to increase the condition for her asylum.
"Those who rode in my ship were here because they wanted to travel with me. I didn't force any of them. Well, except prisoners. I will face Thanos now or later, so you didn't have to sell your servitude for a chance to get away from him. What you want is…to be free right?"
Gamora was stunned when he saw right through her.
Dawn knew Gamora could betray him at any time she wanted. It's not that he had distrust in her. In the galaxy, he was one of the rare people who could see her for who she really was.
The way he treated her so casually was a bit liberating for her. It was rare for her to find someone that didn't fear her father, or her. As he said, she did want to be free. However, the shadow Thanos had casted inside her heart was so big that she didn't think she could escape from him even if she ran away to the edge of the universe.
Following the OneEyedCyclop advice, Dawn acted casually with Gamora. Automatically, Dawn's strength level in Gamora's mind increased.
The Mandalorian was watching her with his expressionless face underneath his helmet and crossing his arm. He tilted his head slightly while watching Gamora's unreadable expression. 'Is she? Nah It can't be…right?'
He noticed something weird with the way she was looking at the ship's captain. It contained bits of longing. After he thought about it, he shook his head to remove the unclean thoughts in his mind.
Dawn walked out with Gamora toward the mess hall.
"For your first act as my crew. Here." Dawn said and displayed Peter Quill's and his team's picture for Gamora.
"They are coming here. To trade the soul stone carrier with me."
"And you want me to kill them?" She said with a certain viciousness in her eyes.
"Nah. I want you to convince them to work for me."
Gamora tilted her head in confusion after hearing what Dawn said. "Why don't you ask them yourself?"
"Because. They are coming here to steal my ship. So I have to punish them accordingly, right?"
Park Shin walked toward Gamora who was standing next to Dawn. Gamora put on a haughty poker face again, bracing herself for the hate or people challenging the Captain's decision to take her in.
Unexpectedly, Park Shin smiled innocently at her with a glitter in her eyes.
"Hey. You're part of the ship's crew now?"
"Yeah. Have any problem with that?" Gamora asked with a calm voice.
"Yeah I have a problem with it!!" Park Shin said with a fake agitation in her demeanour. Then, she turned to the Captain.
"WE NEED A BANQUET FOR A NEW CREW!!"
Dawn nodded while Gamora was stunned after hearing the statement.
"Yeah. We need a banquet! EVERYONE! MEET OUR NEW MEMBER…Albeit temporarily!"
The crew there automatically held a wooden cup containing beer and cheered for the new member. Gamora's mind short circuited after seeing the response. Park Shin grabbed her arm and brought her to the centre of the mess hall where she was greeted by the islanders who became the crew in the ship.
"You know. Bad father. Trained as a warrior since a child. Forced to take a mission she didn't want to do. She is one of us right?" Ana, the widow from the hidden realm said. She wore a Nami cosplay with long pants and a bikini top.
Just like the cat burglar, Ana had been stealing from all over the civilization in the galaxy. The red hair she dyed from her black hair fell on Dawn's shoulder as she hugged his arms.
"Yeah. I guess someone has been slacking in creating the backstory huh." Dawn said.
On Earth, an old man who was bathing in a hot tub with several aged celebrities sneezed.
"Excelsior- HA CHOO. Now now. Who is speaking bad about me?"
Inside Arcadia.
"You know? The Collector has created a bounty for you and the ship?"
"Yeah. 1 billion units."
"We are taking that right?"
"Yup. Who wants to reject a free one billion unit?" Dawn smirked and waited for the raccoon and the tree to come.
…
In the Milano's ship.
"Quill. I told you. If the stone falls into the wrong hands, then calamity will fall onto the universe." Adam Warlock said with some difficulty getting his words out.
His golden skin was prominent underneath the dim lighting of the prison cell he was in. His pupil-less eyes were arduously trying to convey to Quill about the importance of the matter.
He was handcuffed by the trio, and placed with a dampener to ensure he couldn't use his magic again.
Quill brushed his hair, grimacing his face as he felt some parts of it were burned off. "Damn it! Shut your face hole."
"HAHAHAHAHA! You're lucky you didn't go bald, Quill." Rocket held his stomach and laughed out loud, increasing Quill's annoyance level.
"It's all your fault. Why don't you handcuff him from the start?" Peter asked.
"Why would I handcuff a sleeping man?" Rocket replied.
"Listen to me, Quill." Adam Warlock said again.
"I am Groot."
"What Groot? Are you serious? He almost blasted you off to space?" Rocket said.
"What did he say?" Quill asked.
"He asked us to let him go. Said he is a kind man." Rocket replied.
"Come on Groot." Quill admonished the walking tree. Groot shrugged his shoulders and walked away.
"Anyway. I already hailed the Arcadia ship. They shared their coordinates." Rocket said as he and Peter Quill walked to the cockpit.
Their journey was delayed when Adam Warlock woke up suddenly and tried to escape from the ship. They have to fight him for a while to recapture the man. Parts of his ship were damaged, and Peter Quill really needed the money from the bounty to repair it.
[Hooked on a feeling playing.]
Quill turned on the music as they cruised toward the Arcadia spaceship.
"The Hadron Enforcer is ready?" Peter asked.
"Yeah. We just need to blackmail all of them to leave the ship. Otherwise we will blow it up."
"How could we blow it up if we were inside the ship?"
"...."
The group move toward the ship in a carefree manner while daydreaming about the one billion bounty they will receive after this.
One hour later.
CLANG.
A heavy iron gate was closed, locking the trio inside the Arcadia ship's prison.
"YOU SAID YOU HAVE A PLAN ROCKET!!!" Peter Quill said while grabbing the racoon's collar.
"I have a plan! But they are too strong!"
"What is too strong? You walked in voluntarily after he smacked me in the face!"
"Don't worry. I got a plan for us to escape from here."
"I couldn't trust your plan anymore. From now on, we are going to follow my plan."
"What plan do you have?"
Peter released Rocket Racoon and walked to the cell door. He grabbed the metal bar and screamed. "I'm really sorry!! PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!"
Rocket face-palmed after hearing what Peter's plans were.
Inside the Captain's cabin, Dawn was sitting face to face with the handcuffed Adam Warlock.
He poured some tea for the golden skinned man, and prepared some snacks for him.
Adam Warlock stared at Dawn, trying to study the unreadable man in front of him. After a while, Adam Warlock finally talked first.
"Why are you looking for me?"
Dawn sipped his hot tea and placed the cup back on the table.
"Well. It's the first time I ever saw an infinity stone up close. Has it begun to corrupt you yet?"
Adam Warlock jolted upward, and checked his mind to ensure that no one had entered it.
"How?" He asked, wanting to know how the man in front of him knew of his biggest secret – The sentient Soul Stone.
Suddenly, the Arcadia ship was attacked!!
BOOM
A large part of the hull was destroyed from an attack that came out of nowhere. Adam Warlock turned to see a woman with white hair floating in space with a giant sword made of quantum energy.
"Phyla-Vell." Adam Warlock muttered.
"Ahh. Quasar right?" Dawn said casually and casted a quick repair spell. Adam Warlock turned to him when he felt Dawn's magic skill. He could also use magic, but he still hasn't learned about it yet.
"So, Other than Drax. All the original Guardians of the Galaxy is on my ship now. I wonder if this is their fate." Dawn said as he teleported outside the ship to confront the woman.
The minute he teleported outside, he could sense something was wrong. The woman in front of him wasn't an ordinary mortal. She was a GOD.
