(3rdPov)
Rocket: Okay, I'm in! But I got bad news, lover boy!
Peter: What's you find?
Rocket: Come here and I'll show you.
Peter makes his way over to Rocket.
Peter: So... What am I looking at?
Rocket: Nothing.
Peter: She's the captain. Captains keep logs.
Gamora: You keep logs?
Rocket: I'm trying to tell ya they're gone. All of them. Almost like the Worldmind went out of its way to sever everything.
Drax: Have you tried turning it off and on?
Gamora: What about backups? Doesn't every Nova ship have a central hub, or something?
Rocket: A Nexus mainframe, yeah. If there's ghosts anywhere in the system, that's where--
Drax: I categorically refuse.
Peter: Not literal ghosts, Drax. He's talking about data. Right?
Rocket: Yes! we'd have to access the Nexus directly. Means going to the bridge.
Y/n: Alright then what are we doing still standing here let's get moving.
Rocket: Center of operations it is. According to the ship's map, the bridge should be right through here.
.
.
.
The Team starts walking across a glass walkway.
Rocket: Dog report item! It's one of them priests down there, ain't it?
Peter: Okay, so looks like the Church is behind this.
The Walkway starts to crack. And then they all fall down right behind the priest. The priest turns around and takes off his robe and it turns out to be a Big robot. The robot fires a beam at them Team and the team move out of the walk just in time to not get hit. This by far has been one of hardest things the Guardians had to fight. The Guardians working together have managed to get the robot to its knees. Y/n and Groot both pull an arm off, leaving the robot arm less so Y/n take this opportunity to get on top of the robot and stab it with one of his Blades in its head killing the robot.
Drax: We must tell the dog about the pries.
Gamora: Robot priest.
Rocket: I am Groot.
Rocket: Groot says the mutt's not answering.
Y/n: Well that's just great.
Peter: Keep trying. Rest of us can focus on figuring a way out.
Gamora: Really? This is the server room, right? And servers mean data?
Rocket: I can't just plug servers into my skull. I still need a central terminal.
Peter: You said the bridge was on the other side of that corridor. So we just gotta make our way across and then up... somehow.
Rocket: So... how do we get across?
Gamora: Peter and Y/n are the one's with a visor.
Rocket: Unless they broke it.
Y/n: I didn't. I take care of my stuff.
Peter: I didn't break it.
Rocket: Oh yea Y/n then if you take care of your stuff why is there a hole in the jacket Gamora gave you?
Y/n: Okay I was shot in the back nothing I could have done about it.
Rocket: Excuses excuses.
Peter gets the platform moving to them so they can get on and move to the other side.
Rocket: That'll do it.
Drax: Well played, Peter Quill!
Groot: I am Groot?
Rocket: How am I supposed to know why the pooch ain't picking up? Keep trying.
Drax: Dog report item. We have encountered a formidable new enemy, but still no sign of the ghosts.
Gamora: He didn't mean literal ghosts! Ghosts in the system. Remnants of data,
Y/n: Let it go. Just let him think there are ghosts.
They cross to the other side.
Drax: Perhaps we should have interrogated the robot priest?
Y/n: You can just ask the next one Drax I'm sure that wasn't the only one.
Rocket: Okay, so, according to that map I saw, Nexus should be just above us.
Drax: Hmm. Shall I throw the rodent at--?
Rocket: NO!
Peter: Come on!
Groot: I am Groot!
Peter:(sigh) Alright, let's look around. Maybe we can find something.
Gamora: It's weird, right? How the Worldmind seems to have gone completely dark?
Rocket: Very weird.
Drax: Perhaps it is... rebooting?
Y/n: Maybe
Rocket: Of all the words you could have used there, Drax... that one actually wasn't too bad.
Y/n: Rocket are you okay?
Rocket: Yeah why?
Y/n: It's just you're being nice to someone.
Rocket: Flark off Y/n.
Y/n:(chuckles) There's the rocket we know.
Drax: Thank you. It was either that or reloading.
Gamora: There's an open panel up in the corner there. Pretty sure that's our exit.
Y/n: Nice one Gamora.
Peter: Perfect, so we just gotta jump across a few of these floaty server things. Seems... perfectly safe.
Rocket: They contain near infinite stores of data. Pretty sure they can temporarily support our puny mortal frames. Well, mine anyways.
Groot: I am Groot?
Rocket: And yours, too, yes.
Gamora: Hey Groot, any luck getting through to Cosmo yet?
Groot: I am Groot.
Rocket: Nope. Still nothing.
Peter: Reception will probably be better once we're on the bridge.
Rocket: Yeah, I don't think that's how it works.
Peter: Okay this is it. The command center.
Gamora: Which I guess makes that the Nexus control terminal.
Peter: Fingers crossed we find something useful.
Rocket: I'm thinking you should do the honors, Quill.
Y/n: Who me or the old man?
Rocket: You are kid and he's Quill.
Y/n: Whatever works for now.
Drax: That does not seem like you.
Gamora: He probably thinks the Nexus is booby-trapped.
Drax: Ah. That would explain it.
Rocket: Hey, I ain't the one that's eager to know what happened. Let Quill see for himself.
Peter Goes up to the control terminal.
Peter: Locked. I wonder though... Nikki really didn't want her mom to know about this passkey she gave me.
Rocket: No way is some kid's card gonna bypass the Nexus--
Peter: And we're in!
Y/n:(Chuckles) You were saying Rocket?
Rocket: You're kidding?
Gamora: Well done, Nikki.
Rocket: Get to the juicy stuff already.
AUDIO LOGS:

Worldmind: Channeling your Nova Force: A comprehensive guide to meditation and managing your mental health...
Gamora: Actually, I wouldn't mind a copy of that.
Rocket: Pass
Y/n: Fuck it why not make me a copy as well.
Contraxia Incident Report #5340917
Ko-Rel: Let me get this straight. She became a teapot...?
Centurion: That's what my source said.
Y/n: How the hell?
Rocket:(laughing loudly) Amazing.
Gamora: I hate you all.
Y/n: Hey! What did I do?
Gamora: Oh you're okay Y/n I don't hate you.
Y/n: Oh Okay.

But the audio was messed up so they couldn't understand it.
Rocket: Well that don't sound good.
Drax: The audio file must be corrupted.
Rocket: The audio file, and everything else in the galaxy.

Peter: Yeah...

Rocket: Go to the Criminal Records, Quill. I wanna see my files.

Peter: So? It might have useful info or something...

VIDEO LOGS.
QZ Mission #12071965-HC2
The video shows a group of Nova Corps on a mission.
Rocket: Hey, isn't that...
Peter: The mining ship we explored in the Quarantine Zone? Yeah.
Gamora: When's this footage from?
Corpsman: signal's stronger. We must be close.
Y/n: Close to what?
Ko-Rel: How close?
Corpsman: Hard to say. There's too much interference.
Corpsman: Centurion Ko-Rel. Found something.
Ko-Rel walks over and picks something up and looks over at someone.
Ko-Rel: Hey! What are you--!
Corpsman: Watch out!
Out of no where The thing That was in that stone attacked the Nova Corps Group and they start to open fire on the thing. Ko-Rel looks like she gets pushed back by the thing.
Ko-Rel: Flark! Run!
Corpsman: (Scream)
And The thing attacked again and the video ends.
Peter: She went in after we left...
Gamora: Flark... That thing... You don't think?
Drax: It is the creature that devoured our monster.
Rocket: Pfft. Could've been a million things. I mean, It's restricted space for a reason.
Groot: I am Groot.
Rocket: No! You're a load of scut! That thing's got nothing to do with us!
Groot: (grunt)
Peter: That gem Ko-Rel picked up... I think it's the same one we shot in the Quarantine Zone...
Rocket: Uh, we? You're the one who shot it.
Peter: Fine, The gem I shot. The point is that shadow-thing came out of it... (sigh) We did this.
Y/n: No I did. Yes you may have shot it Old man but I was the one who picked it up and let the thing out so it's my fault and mine a lone and if they are dead then that blood is on my hands.
Rocket: The Quarantine Zone's a giant death trap. So we released a shadow-thing. We made it out, didn't we? Your stupid girlfriend probably did too.
Gamora: You been saying the whole time she's probably dead.
Rocket: Uh, probably alive, probably dead, whatever. Important thing is we're all fine.
Peter: Ko-Rel's tough. If anyone could have made it out, it's her. I know it.
Just then the door opens,everybody gets ready for a fight but all they can see is a bright light coming to them and out steps Raker.
Raker: Guardians of the Galaxy. You misread our intentions.
Gamora: No, you've made them pretty clear.
Raker: Sometimes sacrifices must--
Rocket shoots and Raker puts up a force field up to block the shots.
Rocket:(grunt) Had to check!
Y/n: Look if you are here to kills us, kill rocket first.
Gamora: Groot. Ride the starts.
Groot:(grunt)
Peter: Grand Unifier... Raker, right? First, let me just say, it's really cool that you've heard of us. Right guys?
Everybody:...
Peter: And, it's cool that you didn't try to kill us just then. Especially with your two pals right there. Could have totally ripped us apart the moment you walked in. Which we obviously all appreciate. But also, we kinda got a few questions like--
Raker: Where are Centurion Ko-Rel and her daughter?.... You came here seeking Truth. Rejoice. The matriarch wishes to share it with you.
Something big starts to cover the ship.
Peter: Okay, that is really not cool.
Groot: I am Groot.
Rocket:(Whisper) What do you mean he's not picking up?
Raker: Come. The Matriarch awaits.

LOCATION-SACROSANCT- UNIVERSAL CHURCH OF TRUTH TEMPLE SHIP
Peter:(Guardians whispering) What's wrong with the passport?!
Rocket: Nothing. The pooch ain't picking up.
Peter: So, we're stuck here?
Rocket: Hey, at least the dumbscuts let us keep our weapons.
Drax: They demonstrate their lack of fear. It is a proven battle tactic. Katathian warriors often ride into battle completely naked.
Gamora: Keep your pants on.
Y/n: Although it could be used as a distraction...
Peter: Yeah, no. Any other ideas?
Rocket: (Sigh) Can you froth?
Peter: I can froth.
Rocket: Can you twitch?
Peter: Yeah, I'm pretty twitchy.
Rocket: On my cue, you drop, froth, and twitch. While they're all distracted, we take off down one of them side halls.
Peter: What about me?
Rocket: Well, you, uh... you know. Take one for the team.
Y/n: We are not gonna---
Raker: Walk with me.
Rocket: (whispering) Quill. Just grab your chest and drop.
Peter:(whispering) Find another plan.
They start walking with Raker.
Peter: So, the matriarch asked for us by name?
Raker: You and your son, specifically. Although I cannot fathom why.
Gamora: Peter and Y/n constantly surprising us, too. But if they are the first and second in line for brainwashing. I gotta say..
Raker: Is that what you think? That we're brainwashing people?
Peter: We've met your recent coverts. Overly zealous doesn't even begin to describe them.
Raker: They have embraced the Matriarch's Promise. A life-altering experience, yes, but one that must be freely accepted.
Rocket:(whispering) Quill. His drone. It's our ticket out of here.
Peter:(whispering) What? How?
Raker: What are you two whispering about? Well?
Groot: I am Groot?
Rocket: He wants to if you know you're the bad guy.
Raker: Reductive concepts like "good" and "bad" led us into the Galactic War. And what was the gained?
Peter: Uh-- Actually, we were just admiring how huge this place is.
Raker: It is grand, isn't it? Belief in the Matriarch restored it to what it was before the war. Just as her Promise will restore everyone we lost. Mothers.. Lovers... Sons...
Drax: This Promise... will raise the dead?
Gamora: Of course it won't! You can't bring people back.
Y/n: Hmm.
Raker: We can't. But the matriarch--the divine vessel--
Rocket:(whispering) I got an Idea but I need time.
Raker: Can.
Rocket: Stall him!
Raker makes a see-through platform and walks on it.
Raker: Come. Join me.
No one moves
Raker: If I intended to kill you...
Peter is the first one to go on the platform. And then everyone else.
Peter: Wow, okay... That is a cool trick. Wanna explain how you did it?
Drax: Sorcery.
Raker: I can understand how some might see it that way. I used science. The science of faith.
Drax: Faith is not science.
Raker: But faith energy is. This skiff, my inquisitors, even Sacrosanct herself... All powered by the same miraculous energy. Energy I discovered.
Rocket: I'm going for the drone. Keep him talking.
Peter: What, now?
Raker: What? What is it?
Gamora: It's just um--you... you discovered stuff... And you claim to, um, control energy--
Raker: Faith energy.
Gamora: Right. Well it just seems like, all this faith energy is-- really, really powerful, um must be hard to--
Y/n: How do you make this faith energy because I have a guess.
Raker: Oh and do tell what your guess is then.
Y/n: This promise gives people what they want to most and makes them believe that what they want comes true right? And when they accept the promise they start to believe and have Faith in what they are seeing is real. You some how have a way to take that faith and use it as energy.
Gamora: That's was just a guess Y/n?
Peter: Hold on a second! You, uh-- um, this is really embarrassing-- You have a... something on your face.
Raker: My what?
Peter: Yeah, it's like this golden.. foil-y thing. On your, you know face.
Raker: I was disfigured during an explosion. One of the many tragedies for which I blame Him. Wait, weren't there more of you?
Peter: What!? No. No Nope.
Gamora: No! Nope.
Drax: It seems like the kind of thing we would be aware of.
Raker: Indeed.
Y/n: Who is this "him" It seemed super important.
Gamora: Right, right! Your... father? Uncle? Son?
Raker: My son... died of disease. The "Him" I was referring to was someone else. The first divine vessel of this Church... before it was even a church. An absurd faith healer, bathed in golden light and wielding unfathomable power. He saw my loss- our collective loss- knew its cause, but refused to reverse it. Because he, personally, never felt what we feel. That is why I founded this church. To heal. To give hope to those who have lost everything- wait. There were more of you. The little one... is missing!
Drax: Perhaps he died, like you son.
Y/n: Wow
Groot: I AM GROOT!
Raker: What?!
Groot: I am Groot?
Peter: Yes, good point, Groot. He is totally into his spiritual mission. But I think I figured out all of this. Those were some pretty sweet holograms. I think even the Worldmind would be jealous. They must have cost you an arm and a... another arm, right?
Y/n:(Sigh)
Peter: And this (kicks the platform they are on) That's a pretty sweet trick too, but everybody's got anti-grav these days. And let me guess, you've got a personal shield generator tucked under that terror-toga, don't you? A little makeup, some color-coordination--lovin' the gold laser-light show, by the way--and... you got a pretty sweet little scam. I'm actually impressed.
Raker: Well, good for you.
Peter: Hey, I get it, man. You've got to sell the brand before you stage the "miracle." This one time on Rigel-3 I-
Raker: You think you're all very cleaver. You hope to delay me because you're afraid. But there is nothing to fear.
Rocket jumps down from the drone and lands next to Raker.
Raker: Why are you...? Get back here where I can see you.
Rocket: Yeah, yeah.
Rocket gives a thumbs up as a way of saying he hacked the drone.
Raker: It's time to meet the Matriarch.
They get off the platform and followed Raker.
Peter:(whispering) Rocket. tell me you have an escape plan.
Rocket:(whispering) we're gonna summon the Milano. My new buddy will show us the way.
Drax: You are being very cryptic, rodent.
Rocket: Yeah, well I get twitchy when I'm surrounded by giant murder-bots.
Gamora: They just want us to meet their new mommy.
Rocket: Speaking of which, who else thinks Quill's ex-girlfriend traded in her cop badge for cult robes?
Peter: Come on.
Rocket: What? I'm just saying what we're all thinking...
Y/n: Nope just you.
They get to the top of the stairs and come face to face to the Matriarch only for it to be Nikki.
Peter: Nikki...
Gamora: No...
Y/n: What did they do to her?
Groot: I am Groot!
Raker: My Lady, as requested-- the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Matriarch: Thank you, Grand Unifier. Guardians, you may approach.
Drax: Peter Quill, order your offspring to come down from there this instant.
Peter: Maybe I'm out of line but... aren't you a little young for a dress that short?
Matriarch: aren't you little old to write your name on your clothes?
Peter:(hesitant mumbling)
Y/n: You uh.. look different then from the last time I saw you... little sister.
Matriarch: I could say the same to you Big brother. Anyways took you two long enough.
Peter: Yeah, well you know how chatty grandpa gets. (whispers) We're gonna get you out of here. Just follow my lead.
Matriarch: But, this is where we're supposed to be. We're going to save everybody. I'm going to save them. I promised.
Peter: Come on, snap out of it, kid. You're just saying what he wants you to say.
Raker steps forward and Gamora gets her sword out as everybody else gets ready for a fight.
Peter: Whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa, whoa! Hold on, everybody just...
Gamora: The girl is clearly not herself.
Matriarch: Of course I am. But I'm more then just me.
Everybody stands down.
Y/n: What do you mean? Where's your mom?
Matriarch: Mom is here. She's right here... inside me.
Rocket: Well thanks for clearing that up.
Matriarch: The Light... joined us. I thought she was gone... But I can bring her back. They're all waiting for us to bring them back. All we need is faith. The Grand Unifier... helped me understand.
Peter: This is one big con! Trust me, I know a thing or two about--
Matriarch: Why can't you just believe in me?! Why won't you just listen! Nobody ever listens! Until I show them.
Nikki puts her hand out and all that Y/n can see is a bright light and then he finds himself back on Remnant at his house when he can see his younger self crying and holding his dead mother in his arms.
Nikki: she doesn't have to die, Y/n. You can save her. I promise...
Y/n finds himself in his room with his weapons. Then he hears his mother yelling and fighting.
M/n: Really Ozpin and ironwood! You send Team STRQ and the Atlas military to do your dirty work for you!
Ironwood: If you don't want to work with us to stop Salem and end this war then you are against us. Your Call Ozpin.
Ozpin: You left me no other choice M/n. Kill her.
Ozpin and Ironwood start to leave. Y/n now knowing who killed his mother is very pissed off and jumps through his window and lands next to his mother.
M/n: Y/n my son your here you made it.
Y/n: Don't worry mother I won't let them kill you this time!
Y/n takes out his blades and starts cutting through anybody who dares step up to him to try and stop him.
Summer: Who's this guy!
Tai: I don't know but who ever he is, is trying to stop us from killing M/n.
Raven: Then he will join her in death.
Qrow: If we fight him we will die.
Tai: No we won't me and raven can take him.
Raven: Lets go.
Y/n who has taken care of most of the atlas military sees Someone who look like Yang if she had black hair and A guy with her. Now Y/n is even more pissed off because of what yang and the other did to him so he gets ready to show no mercy and run right at them. Tai goes for a punch but y/n moves out of the way and grabs Tai by the face and snaps his neck around Tai falls to his knees and throws up blood and falls to the ground dead.
Raven now pissed off that Y/n killed Tai goes running at Y/n but all Y/n does is back hand her hard and some teeth come flying out and raven is on the ground trying to get back up but Y/n gives her no time to recover and gets on top of her and starts punching her hard over and over again each punch is deforming her face beyond recognition.
Eventually y/n stops and Raven is dead. Summer and Qrow see this but before they can do anything Y/n throws his blades at them hitting them in the chest.
Y/n:GET OVER HERE!
Y/n Pulls them both over to him and he hits them both making them fall on the ground. Summer is the first to get up to her knees holding her stomach.
Summer:(scared)P-please h-have m-m-mercy.
Y/n: No.
Y/n then takes his axe and swings it up and brings it down on her head killing her. y/n then takes his axe out and looks over to Qrow to see him laying on the ground.
Qrow: I ain't gonna beg just kill me already.
Y/n doesn't say anything and makes his way over to Qrow and starts to repeatedly stomp his head in killing Qrow. Y/n then looks over at Ozpin and Ironwood as they try and leave in the bullhead but Y/n quickly uses his blades and hooks on to the Bullhead and starts to climb up and into the bullhead where he is met with a gun to the face. Y/n quickly moves out of the way just as Ironwood shot, Y/n then grabs Ironwood by the arm and throws him out of the Bullhead. Y/n then makes his way to Ozpin and grabs him by the neck and lifting up in the air.
Y/n: I'm gonna kill you last and just to make sure you don't run away I'm gonna cut your legs off.
Ozpin: Wait--
But Ozpin pleading fell on deaf ears as Y/n takes his Blade and cuts Ozpin's legs off and then throwing him out of the Bullhead. Y/n Jumps out as well and lands next to ironwood and Ozpin. Y/n makes his way to Ironwood and picks him up.
Ironwood: If you kill me everybody will be looking for yo--
But ironwood can't finish his sentence as Y/n rips him in half.
Ozpin can only look on in horror at what this monster did to his friend and to Team STRQ and the Military. Y/n makes his way over to Ozpin and turns Ozpin on his chest, Y/n then punches Ozpin in the back of his head and then grabs his head and starts pulling , Y/n rips Ozpin's head right off his body. Y/n held ozpin's head in his hand and drops it.
Y/n killed everybody and saved his mother. M/n comes running over to Y/n and hugs him.
M/n: You did it Y/n your saved me and I couldn't be more proud.
Y/n: I know mother I wish this was real but sadly it's not.
M/n: Wha-
Y/n than stabs his Mother with both blades.
M/n: H-How could you do this to your only mother.
Y/n:(crying) You are not my mother. My mother is dead and I accepted that. Whatever you are I'll free Nikki from it even if its the last thing I do.
Y/n shoots his mother and that Thing that came out of the stone comes out and then all he sees is black then he hears someone calling him.
(???): Wake up Brother! Come on, get up! We don't have much time!
Y/n Wakes up and sees Nikki shaking him.
Y/n: Nikki?
Nikki: we need to get everything ready. Mom will be home soon! Come on, get up! And Go wake dad up.
Nikki leaves the room. Y/n gets up and looks around and sees that he is not in a room he recognizes. Y/n can see some family pictures with him,Nikki,Peter, and Ko-Rel.
Y/n: What the fuck is happening here?
Y/n decides the get ready and wake up his old man but as he was getting ready he sees that his tail is back some how.
Y/n: (exhale) now I know this is fake. I need to find a way out of this.
Y/n makes way to what he thinks is peter's room and opens it and sure enough there is Peter sleeping . Y/n makes his way over and wakes peter up.
Y/n: Old man wake up.
Peter still not getting up.
Y/n: Oh well I tried the nice way.
Y/n then drags Peter of his bed and Peter gets right up.
Peter: I'm up. I'm up. wait Y/n?
Y/n: Yeah that's me now answer me this. What was the last thing you remember before waking up here?
Peter; We were trying to get Nikki to snap out of whatever is going on with her. Is that a tail?
Y/n: Yes it is but that's not the point here-
Before Y/n can say more Nikki comes in.
Nikki: Ah you got dad up nice job Big bro now let's go mom will be home soon!
Nikki leaves and Y/n turns to look at peter.
Y/n: See what I mean? Just what the hell is going on here?
Peter: Yeah I see what you mean we need to find out what's going on.
Peter and Y/n make way to the kitchen kitchen where Nikki is at.
Nikki: Finally! i need help. Mom will be home for lunch soon and I want everything to be perfect.
Peter: Perfect?
Nikki: For her birthday. That's today! Did you two forget, again?
Peter: Uh... No, no, no, of course we didn't.
Nikki: Great! So can you guys help me set everything up like we said yesterday? I just need help with the holo-projector, and then uh, there's the cake and the present that we got her. I want everything to be perfect before she gets home.
Y/n: okay...
Peter walks over to the cake.
Peter: Oh, wow! This looks amazing! Did you make it?
Nikki: Oh no, I ordered it from the bakery planet.
Y/n: There's a Bakery plan-
Nikki: No! I baked it!
Y/n: Oh wow you got to teach me someday.
Nikki: Of course Big bro! Now that just leaves the present and projector.
They walk over to the projector.
Peter: Uh...Nik? is it supposed to be fuzzy?
Nikki: Ugh, obviously not! it's not focused right or something. Can you refocus it? I would ask Y/n to help but we all know he would brake it even more.
Y/n: Hey!
Peter fixes it.
Peter:Wow.
Nikki: It turned out so good! I was sure I messed part of it up.
Peter: Wait. Did you make this?
Nikki: Yeah. It's Hala and the star system around it. And I think I got all the moons.
Peter: It's beautiful.
Nikki: Just need mom's present now. I think it's somewhere in my room.
Peter goes and gets the present from Nikki's room and comes right back.
Nikki: Did you find it?
Peter: Yeah!
Nikki: Okay! Put it with the others!
Peter puts it with the others.
Peter: One birthday present! What did you get her?
Nikki: We got it. On Knowhere. Remember that artist's alley we went to and that painting she really liked? Of kree-Lar? We almost didn't get it because The guy was asking way to much for it but Y/n "asked him nicely" for a discount.
Y/n: I... did? I mean sounds like something I would do.
Peter: Anything else?
Nikki: I don't think so.... How does it look?
Peter: Amazing. Your mom's gonna love it.
Nikki: Thanks, dad. I love you. and thanks for getting him up brother I love you as well.
Y/n: Uh... I know?
Peter: Uh.. Wow! Okay, I...
There was a knock on the door.
Ko-Rel: Nikki? Why's the door locked?
Nikki:(whispering) It's mom! I'll make sure everything is perfect.You guys get the door.
Peter and Y/n go to open the door.
Peter: Surprise!
Y/n:...
Ko-Rel: Peter, Y/n? What are you doing--No!
Ko-Rel's Ghost comes out and grabs both Peter and Y/n
Y/n: What the hell?!
Ko-Rel: Don't believe it Peter,Y/n. This isn't real! She's being tricked. She never should have been here.
They see That thing for the stone kill Ko-Rel.
Ko-Rel: What she saw... I don't know how, but the four of us are connected now. And that thing.. That thing has her, but she can still be saved! She has to accept my death. She must. Show her how to let me go. Free My daughter. Save her. Please!
Another bright light take over and now They are back in the real world.
Matriarch: (pained gasp)
Raker:Child? Get the Matriarch out of here! Now! By rejecting the Promise, you have proven yourselves unworthy. And you must be destroyed!
Raker fights The Guardians for a little bit before knocking them away and leaving but not before sending in more people to fight them.
Timeskip to end of fight.
Peter: We're easy targets down here! How do we get out?
Rocket: Raker's drone gave me a peek at the ship's layout! I'll get us to the comm center, where we can call the Milano to come bail us out of this scuttleflark.
Peter: Okay. But do you see a way up?
Out of the blue stairs start getting made. As they start to go up them more people start coming to try and stop them but they are either shot or get thrown off the edge by Y/n. The Guardians make it to the top and A drone with a death wall just like the one from Lady H's starts going after them.
Rocket: Flarking runtsuckers!
Peter: Go! MOVE!
Y/n: Run away!
They Start running down the long hallway as well as not trying to get hit by the shots coming from the sides.
Rocket: Scut! Scutting!
Gamora:(Rage grunts)
Peter: (Exertion grunts)
Drax: Graaaaaagh!
Groot: I am GROOT!
Peter: Go! Go! Go!
Groot: I am Groot!
Rocket: I AM hurrying!
Drax: we may yet escape!
They make it to the end but its a drop.
Gamora: Ah, FLARK!!! Just jump!
Everybody jumps
Peter:That's bad! That's very bad! We need an exit!
Rocket: There ain't one!
Gamora: Then make one!
Y/n not wanting to die punches a hold in the wall and They move on.
Gamora: Come on, we can escape through that drain!
Rocket: Are you nuts? That's highly toxic warp-drive coolant! We can't just jump in there!
Gamora: We need to keep moving!
Rocket: Maybe I wasn't clear--that's a pool of instant death!
Drax jumps right in.
Gamora: Drax!
Peter: Drax, man... um... everything OK?
Drax: Yes.
Rocket: Ok, so maybe it ain't warp-drive coolant...
Everybody else drops in.
Peter: Oooh, that's tingly.
Rocket: Quill, we need to talk about your kid trying to kill us...
Peter: Raker did something to her. This is his--
Gamora: Shh, quiet!
Converted: Do you think they reached the old mining sector?
Converted: No. The grand Unifier sent Lictor Drones into the lower halls. The heretics would have been disintegrated.
Rocket: Scutholes!
Groot: I am Groot?
Rocket: Yeah, maybe. But if we are lost, at least they can't find us.
Peter: We're screwed.
Gamora: We're lost and we're screwed.
Y/n: Hmm.
Rocket: I just need to get my bearings... I ain't never been on a ship this big.
Drax: Trust your instincts, little one.
Rocket: Little one? Umm. Eh, guess it's better than abomination.
Drax: hah! You are a silly little thing.
Y/n: Um Okay?
Rocket: So this is all about bringin' back the dead? Half the people I've ever known are dead and you don't see me trying to burn the world.
Drax: I would raze planets for a chance to restore my Kamaria.
Gamora: You kinda did...
Drax: No. That was for me.
The team walk in on some people.
Y/n: What are they doing?
Gamora: Blocking our way forward. So many doors... You do know the way out, right?
Rocket: I do now! There's Gubbins!
Peter: You named it Gubbins?
Rocket: Yup. Watch this, he's gonna take us to the comm center.
Gubbins stops at a door.
Rocket: There! That's our exit!
Peter: Okay, we got this.
Not seeing a point of fighting Y/n takes out his Shield puts it out in front of him and starts making a way to the door by running through people pushing them to the side. Everybody makes it to the door and get in the room and the door shuts.
Rocket: So Gubbins is gonna need his own space on the Milano. Somebody's gonna have to give up their room.
Gubbins gets shot and destroyed.
Rocket: NO! GUBBINS! He was gonna be the seventh Guardian!
it was only 2 guys so the Guardians took care of them fast.
Peter: Crap! It's a dead end! Now what?
Gamora: Up there! That catwalk's our way out.
Peter: If we can get across that gap.
Rocket: Flark! We got a bigger problem!
Y/n: Drone's back!
Rocket: Quill, find us a way up that catwalk before we're extra crispy!
Peter: That pillar's top-heavy. Drax! Push that across the gap!
Drax: Yes.
Gamora: No no no! Wrong way, Drax!
Rocket: What the scut, man?!
Groot: I am Groot!
Y/n: Drax!
Drax: What?
Rocket: You fatheaded Badoon! That was our--
Peter: Doesn't matter! We've got an exit! Lets go!
Rocket: Quill. that thing really wants a piece of you!
Peter: Too bad! They're my pieces!
Gamora: This doesn't look good, Peter.
Peter: Whoa. Is this... some kind of torture chamber?
Drax: They look peaceful.
Gamora: Death can be very peaceful.
Y/n: Hmm.
Rocket: I've had enough of this nightmare.
Gamora: Tell me we're close to your comm center.
Rocket: Gubbins sent us this way.
Y/n: He sent us to a dead end.
Rocket: It wasn't a dead end for him!
Gamora: Actually...
Rocket: (Gasp)
Y/n:(Chuckles) You beat me by a second.
Peter: Let's just hope Drax's "shortcut" leads in the same direction.
Drax: Yes. A shortcut.
Y/n: Hey man, are you okay?
Drax: Do not worry about me. I am fine.
Y/n: Okay....
The Guardians Walk into a room and a door opens and out comes more people to try and kill them.
Timeskip to end of fight.
Rocket: Man, that felt good! Now let's see where we are. Hmm...
Rocket hacks open a door and are at the comm room.
Rocket: That must be the comm relay. Our ticket off this heap.
Peter; So uh... how long's this gonna take?
Rocket: I'm gonna need your help.
Peter: Sure.
Rocket: Alright. Just stand right over here.
Peter: Okay...
Rocket: Perfect.
Peter: (sigh)
Drax: Why are we pretending we did not witness what we witnessed in the ceremonial chamber?!
Gamora: Because the "promise" is an insidious lie.
Drax: How can you be certain?
Gamora: Because I wanted to believe it. But I knew , when I woke up it..
Drax: ...would all be gone.
Peter: What did you see?
Groot: I... am Groot.
peter: I saw my mom. Alive. But there was something else there, too.
Y/n: A shadow.
Peter: Yeah, exactly.
Gamora: Whatever it is, It's using the girl. Probably fed her a lie of her own. About Ko-Rel.
Peter: I know. she's...
Rocket: Flarkin' scut!
The comm relay shorts out.
Rocket: What? That was completely intentional. The Milano's on her way.
Groot puts out the flame that was on Rocket's whisker.
Rocket: Thanks, Bud. Alright, let's split before the faith brigade realizes what we did.
Peter: Where's the Milano supposed to dock?
Rocket: It's cute that you use the word dock. She doesn't have hanger clearance so we're gonna have to get creative.
Peter: Okay, just... don't go overboard.
Rocket: That's exactly what we're gonna do. I found a rendezvous spot near the hull.
Peter: Wait, what?
Rocket: Relax. I know where we're going.
.
.
.
Rocket: This sucks and I hate it.
Peter: Yeah...
Rocket: Ugh. We need to get through here but the stupid faith-tech door ain't powered.
Gamora: So how do we charge it?
Rocket: Gotta find something compatible with that power port.
Peter: Maybe I can Just zap it?
Rocket: Runs on faith. Unless your guns can squeeze out some faith juice, we're screwed.
Y/n: What if I opened the door?
Rocket: HA! I want to see this.
Y/n goes up to the door and puts his hands in the middle of the two doors and starts to push so he can get his fingers in there which he does with the door opening just enough for them to fit in.
Peter: Hey guys found a faith battery- what's going on here?
Y/n now with a better grip on the door uses some of his new strength and pushes the door open.
Rocket: What the Hell!?
Y/n: There we're in but looks like we needed the battery anyways. So old man could you put the battery in?
Peter: On it.
Peter puts the battery in.
Rocket: Somebody wanna fetch the Destroyer?
Peter: Drax. You coming, man? Drax? Hello?
Peter walks up to Drax
Peter: Hey. Drax. What's wrong?
Drax: It has occurred to me that this may be nothing more than a linger dream.
Peter: It's not. I promise. But we need to go.
Drax: Very well.
Everybody get on the elevator and it starts to go up. Just then a weird sound was heard.
Peter: What is that?
Y/n: What the hell?
Groot: I am Groot.
Rocket: Yeah, that is kinda scary.
Gamora: I've never heard any ship make that noise. Not even chitauri.
Rocket: Is that... singing?
Gamora: More like distant chanting.
Y/n: Whatever it is, that's a lot of people.
Groot: i am Groot?
Rocket: We have to go this way! We need to keep pushing forward or we'll miss our ride!
Y/n: our luck's gotta change. I mean, once you stab and shoot your own mom things have to go up from there, right?
Gamora: Y/n, you know none of that was real.
Y/n: Still felt real to me.
Rocket: Flark, whatever that is, it's really close!
The elevator reaches the top and The Guardians see what could be millions of people and 4 big faith batteries.
Peter: This is..
Rocket: Flarked.
Gamora: There must be millions of them,
Y/n: At least.
Groot: I AM GROOT!
Rocket: Yeah, and how are we supposed to help? We need to worry about getting our own tails off this death trap!
Peter: We survive. then we make sure Cosmo knows everything about this nightmare. He'll know what to do.
Drax: The church comes for us.
Rocket: Flark!
Peter: Think we can hijack that skiff?
Rocket: Probably. It'll be an ugly hack. Safeties off, people!
Timeskip Lots of fighting
Gamora: No more skiffs!
Rocket: I think we trashed them anyways! hang on... You feel that?
Peter: No?
Rocket: The vibrations are different here. We're getting close to the edge of the ship. And our way out of here.
Peter: You can detect that?
Rocket: Hello. Whiskers?
They keep moving as more people show up and get in there way the Guardians fight them off and keep moving They make it to a big room.
Peter: Okay, let's keep it down.
Gamora: There he is! I'm going after Raker. Don't follow.
Y/n: What? Gamora wait!
Y/n managed to grab Gamora's arm but what happened next shocked everyone. Gamora out of instant turns around and punch Y/n right in the face and broke his nose and that got him to let go of Gamora and she left to go after Raker.
Gamora: Y/n I'm-
Y/n:(Pissed) Just Fucking GO!
Peter: Gamora! Y/n are you alright?!
Gamora: Trust me, Peter!
Y/n: I don't want to fucking talk about it!
Rocket: Uh-oh. We got another scut-ton of goons coming our way!
Timeskip to after the fighting.
Rocket: Come on.. gotta be around here somewhere...
Peter: We got a problem?
Rocket: Uh... Nope. No problem.
Groot: I am Groot?
Rocket: Yeah, what happens if Gamora don't catch up? Once they realize we're on the Milano, they'll throw everything they got at us.
Y/n: Oh well she made her fucking choice
Drax: I will not leave Hovat behind again!
Peter: Hovat? You mean Gamora. And Son you don't mean that I know your mad but-
Y/n: But nothing!
Drax: Yes. Of course. The lethal one.
Peter: Gamora asked me to trust her. That's what I'm--
Y/n: Trust her?! She just broke my nose and You trust her!?
Peter: I'm sure she's sorry son.
Y/n:Whatever.
Groot: I am Groot!
Rocket: Yeah, we can hear it! Real sick of that flarking thing! Flark! How's that thing still dogging us?!
The Drone from before is back.
Peter: Run! Go!
Rocket: I hate everything in this ship!
Peter: Go! Go! Go!
Rocket: I only got little legs!
Y/n: You're on Groot's shoulder!
Drax: Lift your feet, Peter Quill!
Rocket: Jump!
Peter: WHAT?!
Rocket: JUMP!!! We need to keep moving forward, Quill!
Y/n: I see a elevator! Run to it now!
Everybody gets into the elevator.
Rocket: Milano should get here any tick now.
Y/n: Should?
Rocket: Yeah, well it's the best I can do. And our window, to meet her is getting smaller.
Peter: You know they're going to open fire as soon as they detect her.
Rocket: yeah. I've got her running silent, but who knows what kind of sensors Raker has on this thing.
More people show up.
Timeskip to end of fight.
Peter: We can't keep outrunning the whole army! We've got to cut them off or we're gonna die here.
Rocket: I got an idea. Maybe I can overload these batteries, make this part of the ship go BOOM.
Y/n: How big of a boom are we talking about?
Rocket: Can't wait to find out! Keep them busy while I rig this place! Here come the creeps! I need time, Quills! Keep them the flark off of my tail!
That is what the team did they kept the fight off rocket so he could overload the batteries and after fighting for a while Rocket was finally done.
Rocket: OK! They're set to blow. We need to get the flark out of here!
Peter: How much time do we have?
Rocket: I might have overdone it. Run!!!
Y/n: No...No! Rocket. where's the--
The Batteries start going off.
Rocket: Move! Move!
The explosion forces them to jump and start sliding down a pipe.
Peter:(pained grunt) Where does this go?
Rocket: Out!
Y/n: Out where?!
Rocket: Outside!
Y/n: Shit!
Peter: Stay together, people!
True to Rocket's word They end up outside in space and now they are just free floating and slowly freezing over that's when the Milano picks them up
Everybody: (heavy panting)
And The Milano takes off.
