Earth, 1988

You jump out of your bedroom window, ran over to the garage to grab your bike and peddled away from your home to head over to the hospital.

You look towards the window to see your dad passed out on his chair, probably drunk once again. Your dad didn't used to be a drunk, from what your grandma told you he was a good guy. He was loving, thoughtful man and he always loved life. That is until your mother died from childbirth once she gave birth to you.

Ever since then, your father began to drink and he always blamed you for your mother's death. You hated it there, that's why you always hung out with your friend, Peter Quill, and his mother.

Ms Quill was always so cool, she always cooked awesome food and she always took you and Peter out on cool trips, like going to zoo or to the town fair or camping.

That is until she got sick. 

At school earlier, Peter told you she was at the hospital and his family didn't think she was gonna last long. So you decided you were gonna go over to the hospital to be there for your best friend.

Once you make it to the hospital your run towards the doors, which opened for you automatically. Once inside, you see a few adults sitting out in the waiting room but your sight set on Peter, who was sitting in a chair with his walkman on his lap and headphones on his head. You walk up to him as he looks up from his lap and sees you.

He gives you a small smile and stands up from his chair as you go over and give him a hug. "I'm so sorry, Pete." You whispered to him as you two pull back from the hug. He doesn't say anything but nods at you. You noticed that he had a bruise around his eye. But before you could ask about it, you heard a voice call out.

"Peter, your mama wants to speak with you." His grandfather said as he walks up to Peter and places his hand on his shoulder.

He looks over to see you and smiles. "Hello, (y/n)." You nod at him in response. Peter's Grandfather looks down at Peter, who has a look of fear and sadness on his face, and said. "Come on, Pete." Peter looks up at his grandpa then at you asked. "Can she come with me?" His grandpa looks at you then back at Peter and nods at him. 

The three of you make your way to the back as Peter's Grandfather gripes at him about the headphones. "Take these fool things off." He grumbles as he pulls the headphones off of Peter's head.

All three of you walk in the room and see Peter's mother laying in the bed, she look like a skeleton with skin and no hair on her head. You noticed that she looked very tired but even though she looked that way, she was still able to smile at you three.

"(y/n)! What a pleasant surprise!" She said, weakly.

"Hello, Ms Quill." You said as tears fall down your face.

Meredith looks over at Peter and notices the bruise on his face. "Why have you been fighting with the other boys again, baby?" She asked him. Peter shrugs his shoulders. 

"Peter?" She asked.

"They killed a little frog that ain't done nothin'. Smushed it with a stick." He replied.

Meredith gives a small smile to her son and said. "You're so like your daddy, you even look like him. And he was an angel, composed of pure light..." Then Meredith's eyes closes for a moment.

"Mer? You got a present for Peter, don't you?" Peter's grandfather asked her as she opens her eyes. "Of course. There." She said as she touches a small wrapped present and a card, Peter's grandfather takes them and puts them in Peter's backpack, which was on his back. "I've got you covered, Pete." He mutters to him.

Peter looks down for a moment as Meredith smiles at her son again then said. "You open it up when I'm gone, okay?" Peter's eyes start welling up with tears. Your eyes filled up with tears as Meredith continues. "Your grandpa is gonna take such good care of you. At least until your daddy comes back to get you." She said.

Then she looks over at you and said. "You've been such a good friend to him, (y/n). Look out for him for me, okay?" You nodded and she smiles again as she closes her eyes again then opens them again, slowly.

She looks back at Peter and said. "Take my hand." She opens her hand and holds it out for him, but Peter looks away. "Peter." She said, softly as Peter begins to cry. 

"Pete, come on." His grandpa said but still Peter looks away. "Take my hand." His mother said before her heart moniter lets out one long beep. You placed your hand over your mouth while Peter screams. "Mom? No! No! No! No! Mom! No!"

Then the doctor's rush into Meredith's room as Peter's grandfather carries you and Peter away from the room. "Come with me." said Peter's Grandpa. "No! No!" Peter screamed, frantically, as he set you two out in the hallway of the hospital.

"You two stay here. Please." His grandpa said. You and Peter look up at him as he said. "Okay?"

Both of you nod as you two watch his grandfather walk back into the room, then Peter begins to run. "Peter!" You screamed as you run after him.

The two of you make it outside and he runs up the little valley until he falls to his knees and weeps. You place your arm around his shoulder and hold him close as you kneel down next to him.

He begins to cry into your shoulder when suddenly a bright light shines above you two. You and Peter look up and saw an odd shape and a beam of light, hovering over you two.

Both of you were terrified. "Mom!" Peter screamed when suddenly there was a swirl of colors around you two. One moment you two were there on your knees, then you two were gone as the light disappeared.

26 Years Later

Morag

Abandoned Planet

A doorway to an abandoned cave opens to reveal two figures, one male and one female, standing there, both wearing metal masks and long red jackets. The man was wearing black pants and a gray shirt while the woman was wearing dark blue pants and a white tank top with a gold heart shaped necklace around her neck.

Both figures touched the side of their helmets to reveal their faces. The two figures were (y/n) (l/n) and Peter Quill, or Star-Lord as he liked to be called. You and Peter look around the cave as he takes the headphones of his walkman and places it up on his head, covering his ears. You smiled and shake your head at this.

After all these years, you were still shocked that that walkman still worked, but then again Peter always took great care of it. You didn't blame him since that and the tape, he liked to listen to, were gifts from his mother.

The two of you look at each other and nod as he presses play on the walkman and straps it to his belt as the two of you begin to enter the cave. Even though you couldn't really hear it, you knew what song he was listening to just from him lip-syncing the song.

Hey (hey), what the matter with your head head

Hey (hey), what the matter with your mind and your sign and a ohohoh

Hey (hey) nothin the matter with your head baby find it, come on and find it

Hey, with it baby cause you're fun and you're mine and you look so divine.

Come and get your love

Come and get your love

Come and get your love

Come and get your love

The two of you listened to that tape so many times the last twenty-six years, you knew what order the song played and the lyrics and the beat by heart. You begin to sing along until Peter begins to dance and swing his hip, which made you laugh. He looks over at you and smiles as he takes your hand and the two of you begin to dance around in the cave.

Hey (hey) what the matter with your feel right don't you feel right baby

Hey oh ya get it from the mainline all right

I said find it find it come and rub it if you like it yeah

Hey (hey) it's your business

Get it together baby

Both of you danced around the cave then you saw some rat-like creatures scurrying along the grounds and you take your hand out of Peter's hand and start to kick the creatures around. Peter chuckles as he copies your moves then he sees one of the rats on a rock formation, grabs it and starts to act like the rat was a microphone as he sings the song.

You twirled around and kicked the water then you two slide across a slippery pathway as Peter tosses the rat aside.

You two make it towards a ledge and looked down at the huge gap, which had slithery monsters down below, then looked across the platform. You and Peter look at each other and nod as he takes your hand and pulls you in to his side as he pushes a button on his belt and the rocket booster on his boots come on and flies you two over the gap.

You two land on the platform and you pull away from Peter as you felt your cheeks heat up. The two of you make it over to the giant closed door. You walk up to it and raised your little pen-like device to unlock it. The door slowly opens to reveal an empty room with a glowing light at the end of the room.

Peter pulls out a ball and shakes it to make it light up. You two walk in the room and see a cylindrical purple light with an orb inside. Peter sets the light down as you walk up to the orb and laid a triangular device on the floor, which pulled the orb out. "Awesome." Peter whispers to you as he pulls off his headphones just as you two hear a voice behind you.

"Drop it!"

You two turned around to see three guys with guns aimed at you two.

"Uh...hey." Peter greeted, uncertainly.

"Drop it, now!" The man, Korath, ordered.

"Hey, cool, man." Peter said just as you said. "No problem." And you dropped the orb as you and Peter raise your arms up.

 Korath's men approach you two, guns raised and aimed. "How do you two know about this?" Korath asked as he picks up the orb.

"We don't even know what that is." You replied.

"We're just a couple of junkers, man. We were just...just checking stuff out." said Peter.

"You two don't look like junkers. You two are wearing Ravager garbs!" Korath exclaimed as he points at your clothing.

"This is just an outfit, man." You said as one of Korath's men start prodding you. "Hey! Ninja Turtle, you better stop poking her!" Peter said, angrily, and the man stops. You smirked at this. Peter was always very protective of you, which you couldn't help but feel appreciation for it when he did that...and it always made your heart flutter in your chest.

"What are your names?!" Korath asked you two.

"My name is Peter Quill and this is my friend, (y/n) (l/n), okay? Dude, chill out." Peter replied.

"Move!" Korath ordered.

"Why?" You asked him.

"Ronan may have questions for you two." Korath replied as he turns around to leave.

"Hey, you know what? There's another name you might know me by." Peter shouted and you rolled your eyes at this as Korath stops and turns back to look at Peter. "Star-Lord."

"Who?" Korath asked, confused.

Peter gives him a disappointed look and said. "Star-Lord, man. Legendary outlaw." Korath and his crew keep looking at Peter confused as he looks around them. "Guys?" Peter asked but nobody said anything.

"Move!" Korath ordered again and you rolled your eyes once again and said. "Oh, forget this."

 You kicked the ball of light, behind you, towards the two guards, disentergrating them as Peter pulls out his gun and shoot Korath, who falls back, while you pick up the orb.

Unfortunately, Korath rises and shoots at you and Peter, but you two fall back only making Korath hit the wall behind you two. You two fall to the ground, put on your helmets and Peter's boots become like rockets. You take his hand as he propels you two out of the cave.

You two manage to get back to the ship and take off as more Korath's henchmen shoot at you two but you fire back at them.

After the ship starts to take off, you and Peter laughed at your defeated enemies when suddenly you were hit by something which caused the ship to lose power and started to spin around, uncontrollably. You two were flung around the bridge of the ship until Peter grabbed onto one of the chairs and pulled on the lever and managed to pull it back up in time.

You two sat down next to each other, to catch your breathe and you smiled at him. He smiles back at you when a pink skinned woman appears from the hatch on the floor, her hair all in a mess.

"Peter? What happened?" She asked and both you and Peter turned to face her. You glare over at Peter and asked, angry and annoyed. "Who the hell is that?" Then the woman looks over at you then over at Peter and asked, pointing at you. "Who is she?"

Peter looks between you two then over to the woman and said. "Hey, uh...uh. I..." 

"Bereet." She replied, annoyed.

"Bereet! Look, I'm gonna be totally honest with you. I forgot you were here." Peter said. Bereet looks at him in shock as you face-palmed at this.

Later as the ship travels away from Morag, you and Peter watch the news on the monitor as Bereet was sitting at the table, drinking. "Scattered riots broke out across the Kree Empire today protesting the recent peace treaty signed by the Kree Emperor and Xandar's Nova Prime." said the News Reporter. As the reporter continued there was a loud ring sounding out and Bereet said. "Peter, you have call." She goes to the little screen, on the table, to answer the call.

"No, wait, don't!" You and Peter exclaimed but too late as she presses the screen and a familiar blue face appears on the screen.

"Quill? (L/N)?" Yondu shouted.

"Hey, Yondu." You and Peter greeted.

"I'm here on Morag. Ain't no Orb, ain't no you or your little girlfriend." Yondu said, Bereet glares between you two but you two ignored her.

"Well, we were in the neighborhood. I thought we'd save you the hassle." Peter said.

"Well, where are you two at now, boy?" Yondu asked him.

"I feel really bad about this, Big Blue, but we're not gonna tell you that." You replied.

"I slaved putting this deal together..." Yondu screamed but Peter talks over him. "Slaved? Making a few calls is slaved?" 

"And now you two gonna rip me off!" Yondu shouted at you two, angrily.

"I mean, really?" You muttered, making Peter chuckle.

"We do not do that to each other. We're Ravagers, we got a code." Yondu yelled.

"Yeah, and that code is steal from everybody." You reiterated, angrily.

"When I picked you two up on Terra..." Yondu started to say as you and Peter said, together. "Picked us up."

" ...these boys of mine wanted to eat the both of you."

"Yeah." Peter grumbled, trying not to shout at Yondu.

"They ain't never tasted any Terran before. I stopped 'em. You two are alive because of me! I will find you two, I will..." but what he was going to do, you didn't know as Peter hangs up on him as you two make your way to Xander, the Capital of the Nova Empire.

"You know you just pissed him off, right?" You said but all you got as a response was a grunt from Peter as he walks away.
