The Fight

"Look at this! Where is the other half of our ship?" Gamora asked angrily. "My ship" Peter corrected her. "Any of you could have gotten us through that field had you flown with what's between your ears instead of what's between your legs!" Gamora shouted as she pointed at you, Rocket and Peter. "If what's between my legs had a hand on it, I guarantee I could have landed this ship with it" Peter said. You rolled your eyes. "Peter, we almost died because of your arrogance" Gamora said. "More like because they stole the Anulax batteries!" Peter said as he pointed at you and Rocket. "They?! More like she!" Rocket said as he pointed at you. You glared at him. "What?! I wasn't the only thief you know! You stole some batteries too!" You hissed. "They're called Harbulary batteries" Drax said. "No they're not!" Peter said. "Do you know why I did it, Star-Munch? Hmm?" You asked. "I'm not gonna answer to "Star-Munch." Peter said. "I did it because I wanted to!" You said. "Dick" Peter said as he walked away from you. "What are we even talking about this for? We just had a little man save us by blowing up 50 ships!" Rocket said. "How little?" Peter asked. "Well, I don't know, like this?" Rocket asked, making a small size with his paws. "A little one-inch man saved us?" Gamora asked. "Well, if he got closer, I'm sure he would be much larger" you said. "That's how eyesight works, you stupid raccoons" Peter said. "Don't call us raccoons!" Rocket shouted. "I'm sorry. I took it too far. I meant trash pandas" Peter said. You looked confused. "Is that better?" You asked. "I don't know" Drax said. Peter smirked. "It's worse. It's so much worse" he said. Rocket growled at him and lunged for him. "You son of a..." he said. "Hey!" Peter said.

"I've had it with you!" You shouted as you also lunged toward Peter. "No! Back up!" Peter said. "And what's the deal, Y/N?! Why didn't you just let me fly the damn ship?! You know it's not safe for you to be driving after what happened!" Rocket said angrily. You glared at him. "Oh, please! I wasn't the one who just broke our ship in two!" You hissed. "Actually, you were! If you hadn't tried to take control of the ship we would have been fine!" Rocket said. "I know how to fly a spaceship, Rocket! I was made the same way you were! Therefore I have all of your abilities! Which means I can fly as many spaceships as you can!" You protested. "Yeah, right! Say that to the spaceship you crashed back when it was just you and me! You could barely even steer the thing!" Rocket said. "Whoa, whoa" Peter said as he tried to break up the fight between you and Rocket. "I was the only one engineered to pilot a spacecraft! Rocket said. "You're also, the only one who doesn't trust his own sister!" You shouted angrily. Rocket glared at you. "Well maybe I'd be better off without a sister like you!" He said. You gasped. Then you immediately looked away from him. The others fell silent after that. Rocket looked surprised by his own words, realizing what he just said, before looking over at the others, who just looked away awkwardly. Rocket felt so guilty. "Y/N, I..." he said. You glared at him. "Save it" you said. Suddenly a large white spaceship flew towards all of you. "Someone followed you through the jump point" Nebula said as she spotted the spaceship. You glared at the spaceship and reached for your blaster. You all came close together. "Set me free, you'll need my help" Nebula said. "I'm not a fool, Nebula" Gamora said. "You are a fool if you deprive yourself a hand in combat" Nebula said. "You'll attack me the moment I let you go" Gamora said.

"No I won't" Nebula said. "You'd think an evil supervillain would learn how to properly lie" Peter said. "I bet it's the one-inch man" Drax said. The big spaceship flew down to the ground in front of you. Then the doors to the spaceship opened to reveal an old man and a young looking creature of some sort standing beside him. You glared at the two mystery people. "After all these years, I've found you" the man said. "And who the hell are you?" Peter asked. "I figured my rugged good looks would make that obvious. My name is Ego... and I'm your dad, Peter" Ego said.

*******************************************

"I hired Yondu to pick you up when your mother passed away. But instead of returning you, Yondu kept you. I have no clue as to why" Ego said. "Well, I'll tell you why. Because I was a skinny little kid who could squeeze into places adults couldn't. It made it easier for thievin'" Peter said. "Well, I've been trying to track you down ever since" Ego said. "I thought Yondu was your father" Drax pointed out. "What? We've been together this whole time and you thought Yondu was my actual blood relative?" Peter asked in disbelief. "You look exactly alike" Drax protested. "One's blue!" Rocket said. "No, he's not my father! Yondu was the guy who abducted me, kicked the crap out of me so I could learn to fight and kept me in terror by threatening to eat me" Peter said. "Eat you?" Ego asked in surprise. "Yeah" Peter said. "Oh, that son of a bitch" Ego said. "How'd you locate us now?" Gamora asked, changing the subject. "Well, even where I reside, out past the edge of what's known we've heard tell about the man they call Star-Lord. What say we head out there right now? Your associates are welcome. Even those triangle-faced monkeys there" Ego said, referring to you and Rocket. You and Rocket both glared at Ego, and you growled at him, before you tried to hide your eyes as tears fell. "I promise you... it's unlike any other place you've ever seen. And there... I can explain your very special heritage. Finally get to be... the father I've always wanted to be. Excuse me. I've gotta take a whiz" Ego said before walking away. Peter nodded slowly as he watched him walk away and looked at Gamora doubtfully. "I'm not buying it" he said. Gamora stayed silent for a moment. "Let's go take a walk" she said.

Rocket thought he would try to apologize again. "Y/N... about what I said earlier..." you cut him off. "Oh I get it. You don't want me as your sister" you hissed before you looked away from him. "But Y/N I-" "I don't want to hear it!" You said. "I already said I'm not talking to you so just leave me alone" you said. Rocket sighed.

Meanwhile

"Give me a break! After all this time, you're gonna show up, and all of a sudden you wanna be my dad?" Peter asked. "I hear you" Gamora said. "No, and by the way, this could be a trap. The Kree purists, the Ravagers they all want us dead" Peter argued. "I know, but..." Gamora said. "But what?" Peter asked. "What was that story you told me about Zardu Hasselfrau?" Gamora asked. "Who?" Peter asked. "He owned a magic boat?" Gamora said. "David Hasselhoff?" Peter asked. "Right" she said. "Not a magic boat. A talking car" Peter corrected her. "Why did he talk again?" She asked. "To help him fight crime, and to be supportive" Peter said. "As a child, you would carry his picture in your pocket and you would tell all the other children that he was your father, but that he was out of town-" Peter interrupted her.

"Shooting Knight Rider or touring with his band in Germany. I told you that when I was drunk. Why are you bringing that up now?" Peter asked. "I love that story" she said. "I hate that story. It's so sad! As a kid, I used to see all the other kids off playing catch with their dad. And I wanted that, more than anything in the world!" Peter said. "That's my point, Peter. What if this man is your Hasselhoff?" Gamora asked. Peter sighed. Gamora walked up to him and grabbed his hands with hers as she looked at him. "If he ends up being evil... we will just kill him" she said.

*******************************************

"You're leaving me with those foxes?" Nebula asked in anger. "They're not foxes" Gamora said as she glared at her. "Shoot her if she does anything suspicious. Or if you feel like it" Gamora said. "Okay" Rocket said as he was fixing parts of the ship. Groot looked up sadly at Gamora. Gamora put a finger on him reassuringly. "It'll be just a couple of days. We'll be back before Rocket and Y/N finished fixing the ship" she said. Groot waved at her as she walked away. "What if the Sovereign come?" Drax asked a bit anxiously. "There's no way for them to know we're here. Let's go" Peter said. "I'm uncertain about parting ways" Drax said. "God, you're like an old woman" Peter said in annoyance. "Because I'm wise?" He questioned. "Why do you have so much luggage?" Gamora asked, referring to the large backpack on his back.

"I don't want Groot playing with my things" Drax said. Peter looked over at you as you were spraying parts of the spaceship. You looked at him slightly. "I hope Daddy isn't as big of a dick as you, orphan boy" you said. Peter looked at you in disbelief. "What is your goal here? To get everybody to hate you? Because it's working" he said. Then Peter, Drax and Gamora made their way to the big spaceship. You looked away from them as you continued to work on the spaceship. The big orange window on the spaceship opened, and Peter, Drax and Gamora walked into the spaceship. Then the window closed again, and the white spaceship took off, leaving Rocket and Y/N by their lonesome.
