Quill and Gamora began to prepare for landing. Snow was told to go pack up her belongings, cause who knew how long they would be there for.

Snow did have a few things, such as gifts from Rocket, and little chachkies that she got from different planets. Her drawings were basically exploding from a  makeshift folder she made.

"You really leaving?" Snow turned to see her best friend. Rocket stepped into her room. His small paws creating little patters on the hard ground. His face was solum as his head hung low. His paws held themselves as he slowly approached her. 

"Just to understand Rocket." Snow sighed. Rocket and her became close in their time together. Both were smart and able to use little to nothing to create a weapon. Snow treated Rocket as if he was human, except for the nights the comfort each other in silence and Snow strokes Rocket's fur. 

"You don't even know who they are! They could be out to kill you!" Rocket pointed out.

"Then I'll kill them first. This isn't my first Rodeo Rocket." Snow told him.

"The hell is a rodeo?"

"I don't know, its and expression I think." Snow rolled her eyes as she spoke to him. "Rocket, I need this. I thought you would understand."

"I get it, doesn't mean I like it." Rocket grumbled. Snow then went on her knees and looked her friend in the eyes. 

"This is something I have to do. I can continue to draw and lose my mind, or finally figure this shit out. I for one like the second option better. Less hair loss for me." Snow smirked.

"And you are gonna leave me with theses idiots?" Rocket chuckled.

"Well, It could be worse. I could just leave you with Drax."

"Over my dead body." Rocket growled. Snow began to laugh, then went through her drawings. She found what she was looking for and handed it to Rocket.

"I made this, cause You are my best friend Rocket. Who knows, you and this James may get along." Snow shrugged. Rocket looked at all the penmanship in the drawing.

"Wow Barnes. You  draw my handsome face more often instead of the damn Terrans." Rocket chuckled. 

"Yeah, well my mind has more control over my body than me sometimes." Snow chuckled.

 A knock came from the door, and the two turned to see Quill.

"We are here. You ready Barnes?" Quill asked, actually wanting to know.

"Eh, could be worse." Snow grinned. She picked up her backpack and went to the main door. There stood Quill, Gamora, Drax, and Groot. Snow and Rocket stood behind them, and Quill began to lower the door.

It was all silver metal everywhere. There was tall beams on the side to hold support, with tall clear windows. Men in dark suits stood there, large rifle held in front of them. In front of those men, was a man that seemed familiar. 

He wore a dark formal suit, with a read handkerchief in his pocket. His brown hair was slightly messy, however it seemed very handsome. He had a grin on his face the second he landed eyes on Snow.

"I am so glad you were able to come." The man said, his teeth were crooked, along with his smile. However it felt familiar. "When we got the call, it raised so much hope to all of us."

"Where is James? I spoke with him first." Quill demanded.

"Him and the rest of the team are waiting in the main room. These men will escort you, while I bring Miss Barnes to the medical ward. We just want to make sure she is healthy." The man assured. Quill looked at Snow, and Snow nodded.

"Okay." Quill agreed.

"Splendid!" The man said with a smile and a clap of his hands. "There is also a few things yo must say to James, as a formality. My men will teach you. Miss Barnes, shall we?"

Snow slowly walked to the man and wrapped an arm around his. She looked at her friends, give them a look of confidence. It was okay.

The two began to walk away as the other men were teaching Quill and his team the pronunciations of the first words.

"страстное желание" (Longing)

Snow and the tall man walked down the hallway, their feet creating little echoes as it hit the ground.

"You know my name, but what is yours? You seem familiar." Snow asked. The man gave her a creepy smile, that gave her chills.

"We are good friends. I helped you have a better life." He said to her.

"Strucker. Lane Strucker is the name."

Please don't hate me
