Somewhere in space, The Milano flew towards where the distress call was. In the ship, Peter was listening to "Rubberband Man".

"Sing it, Drax!" Peter shouted. Drax was asleep in his chair. Gamora lip sings to the song.

"Why are we doing this again?" Rocket asked.

Jean, who shared a seat with Groot, glared at Rocket. "It's a distress signal, Rocket. Someone could be dying", Gamora said.

"I get that, but why are we doing it?"

"Did you seriously just ask that?" Jean asked. "We're doing it because we're nice".

"And maybe whoever it is will give us a little cheddar cheese for our effort", Peter said.

"Which isn't the point", Gamora said.

"Which isn't the point", Peter repeated. "I mean, if he doesn't pony up..."

"We take his ship", Drax said. Jean glared at him.

"Exactly!"

"Bingo!"

"Hey, Drax. Weren't you asleep? This isn't a joke, okay? Whoever it is, they're in pain. I can feel it from here",Jean said. She stands up and stood next to Peter's chair.

"Don't worry, Jean. We'll get there", Gamora said.

"Bella", Jean said softly. Peter looked at her. Jean walked back towards her seat.

"You've been saying that name all day. You mind telling me who that is?" Peter asked.

"You'll figure it out once you get there in time".

"Jean, calm down. We'll get there in time. I promise".

"We are arriving", Mantis said.

"Alright Guardians. Don't forget, this might be dangerous so let's put on our mean faces", Peter said.

"Oh, that's easy. I always have my mean face on", Jean said. Groot was busy, playing his video game.

"Groot, put that thing away, now. I don't wanna tell you again", Peter said. Groot doesn't listen. "Groot".

"I am Groot", Groot said in a snarky tone.

"Whoa!" Peter and Jean shouted.

"Language!"

"Hey!"

"Wow".

"Damn, Groot", Jean said.

"Jean, no", Peter said. Jean rolled her eyes. The Milano had arrived. Dead bodies floated in space. Jean stood up and looked at the bodies sadly.

"We're too late", Jean said.

"What happened?" Mantis asked.

"Oh my god", Peter said.

"Looks like we're not getting paid",Rocket said. Jean glared at him. Something hits the window, startling everyone.

Jean walked closer to the window. In front of them was a force field. Inside the force field was, Thor, Loki, Peyton, Bella and Lavinia (And Hudson).

Jean and Bella looked at each other. Their eyes turned purple before going back to their normal color.

"Get them on the ship", Jean said. She ran towards the door. The Guardians followed her.

The Guardians helped the group of 5 get onto the ship. "How the hell are you guys still alive?" Peter asked.
