Guardians of the Galaxy Part 9

"Huh?" x2.

Captain Marvel and Peter Quill made a sound of surprise at the mention of Earth.

Since they both know that the only planet with that name is their home of origin.

Peter Quill and Captain Marvel exchange surprised looks as they did not expect them to come from the same world.

They all turn to them upon hearing their surprise.

"Do you know about that place?" Gamora asked curiously.

"Yeah, it's my home planet, before a group of Ravagers kidnapped me" Peter Quill answered.

"It's also mine, but due to an incident with the Kree I got these powers and since then I've helped different planets suffering from Kree and Skrull tyranny" Captain Marvel also answered.

They all nod their heads upon hearing their words.

"But it's amazing, I never expected my home to change so much, that it's already in contact with space" Captain Marvel said with a smile.

Peter Quill nods his head.

Gamora's face twitches at her words, and she's a little embarrassed.

Seeing the awkward Gamora, Captain Marvel and Peter Quill get a bad feeling.

"Hey, what's the matter?" Captain Marvel asked as she frowned.

Peter Quill is the same.

"Well, the situation is that when I arrived on Earth it was not very technologically advanced. At that time, I was working for Thanos and I was looking for an object called the Cosmic Cube"

"I wanted to destroy it, but at that moment a group of people with super powers from a country called Genosha appeared and defeated us and forced Thanos's forces to escape. I was captured and there I met their leader"

"Alex Wayne, an annoying but reliable guy, he asked me to work for him because he wanted to be informed of what was happening in space and the threats that would endanger his planet" Gamora answered.

Everyone is amazed and speechless upon hearing her words.

It seems interesting how they met.

"So your boss is this man named Alex Wayne, right?" Peter Quill asked her.

Gamora just nods her head.

"I see, a lot of things seem to have changed, I think it will be good if I go back for a walk around my home" Captain Marvel commented.

"Hey, that guy will have a way to pay us, right?" Rocket asked a little doubtfully.

"Don't worry, he can pay, since he's on good terms with the Shi'ar lately, so he must have a lot of units by now" Gamora answered.

Rocket nods satisfied with Gamora's answer.

"Then I'll call him to let him know of our arrival" Gamora said as she sat down in front of a screen.

The others, curious, approach to watch the conversation.

In that, the screen in front of Gamora turns on and in it you can see a handsome young man with black hair and blue eyes between 24 and 26 who has a smile on his face.

The only thing that ruins the image of the young man is that a little baby is messing with his hair, as if it belonged to her.

They are Alex Wayne and his daughter Sasha.

"Oh Gamora, it seems that you are doing well, now you have many friends, as your boss I am proud" Alex said a little surprised to see the people around Gamora.

But not without forgetting to give her a thumbs up as a sign of pride.

"Hi Alex, it's good to see you too" Gamora said as her face twitched at his words.

"Well, don't be shy and tell me who bullied you" Alex replied with a smile, which made Gamora want to punch him.

Sighing, she says:

"Stop joking, I'll tell you the current situation. With me I have the Power Stone and currently the Kree forces and the forces of Thanos, the Chitauri, are hunting us. And during that time, these people were involved in this matter and I want you to help us"

Alex is surprised to hear her words.

"You really like the danger Gamora. Well, it's no problem to help you and take care of that Stone, but I must warn the governments of the Earth so that they are prepared, after all I do not represent them and it would be irresponsible not to do it" Alex casually said after some thought.

"Thank you" Gamora said with a smile.

"Don't think about it too much, besides, you should throw that Stone through a black hole and that's it, that way you'll solve it faster" Alex said while playing with little Sasha.

"No, if we do that, I won't be able to cash in my units" Rocket responded quickly instead of Gamora.

"That's right, I can't do that since I promised them that they would receive profit by helping me" Gamora said to him with a nod.

"Also, it's not safe to throw it down a black hole. I've already tried it and it just sends you to the other side of the universe, it would be bad if it accidentally got into the hands of someone dangerous" Captain Marvel said seriously.

They all look at her strangely, since they understood from her words that this woman experienced firsthand what happens when you go through a black hole.

"I am Groot" Groot said trying to join in the conversation.

"No one asked you if you've ever seen a black hole" Rocket said to silence him.

"I bet I can get into one of those" Drax said.

"Guys... can you be serious and stop talking about black holes?" an exasperated Peter Quill said.

"HAHAHA, you've got yourself a very interesting group Gamora. And they're helping you protect the Stone, so they must be good people" Alex said, laughing a little as he listened to their conversation.

Gamora just nods her head, as she thinks so too. After only knowing each other for a while, they have been able to relate easily, it is as if they will complement each other when doing a job.

Which confuses her, she was always an independent woman who liked to do things by herself, but seeing this group discussing black holes, it tells her that it's not so bad to work with someone else.

"So, when will you arrive?" Alex asked.

"In about 36 hours, since I want to throw them off the scent, in case they were following us" Gamora answered.

Alex nodded and after a little conversation, they ended the communication.
