"Oh OK I will surely look into your movies later." she replied. The Nova Prime had also said that they forwarded video evidence to Kree Empire and showed how Ronan attacked the kyln prison and even showed them Victor easily defeating Ronan and sparing him.
"I hope this will stop the Kree from their underhanded tactics." She said.
"If only it was that easy." John said as he knew Ronan wouldn't stop.
"I presume you all are very tired with all this. I won't hold you. You can take rest. There will be a banquet for you all tonight. Hope you all will join it." She said while leaving.
"Sure. We will be there." John said. They too returned home after that. Rocket was still pretty much shaken after all of this and he kept asking Victor about his cybernetic enhancements as he was dreaming of using them on himself later. Victor had to basically run away from Rocket to stop answering him.
Meanwhile the story of Quill and his smaller gang continued. He went to Nowhere to sell off the orb but it didn't go as it was planned. They went to collector to sell if off. Tivan, the collector was pretty much pumped up for the power stone but it turned out to be a huge embarrassment as the whole orb was fake.
Peter and others were taken aback, they had gone through so much just to realize that the whole orb was a fake one. Drax on the other hand got bored out of all this and sent a signal to Ronan about their position.
Ronan did come after that and as the story should have gone, Drax assaulted directly after he came out and he was easily tossed away by Ronan. He was very much in bad mood so he beat down Drax more harshly than he should have and threw him to a water pod.
Ronan after beating Drax down went to search for Gamora with Nebula. They soon found them and confronted. But when she said the orb was a fake one, he didn't believe them and immediately attacked.
And thus the fight ensued between Peter and Gamora against Ronan and Nebula. After exchanging few punches Quill understood they needed to run away as they would be out numbered. So with Gamora they ran straight to their ship to escape.
But this was where the story again took a major turn. When John later came to know what happened in Nowhere he was more surprised, because an old acquaintance of him showed up.
Groot.
Now a proper recruit of Green Lantern corps.
Nowhere belonged to his sector and since the ring gave him the information of an illegal attack in Nowhere he came to see what was going on. Groot who just reached Nowhere saw everything and understood that that he alone wouldn't be enough to stop Ronan. Even though he was a green lantern he was still new and he couldn't make huge objects from his ring and cut down spaceships.
He flew to Drax, Gamora and Peter to rescue them. Though he wasn't sure why Ronan was after them but being a green lantern he needed to save them. He directly used his ring to take him to their spaceship.
And thus with the help of Groot all three were able to escape with their Milano spaceship. The Dark Aster couldn't travel as fast as Milano so they were able to escape.
Now Quill and others were amazed by this new power shown by Groot. Since Groot couldn't talk he couldn't explain his powers to them. Groot also understood that they couldn't run away from Ronan as that was not the way of the lanterns and he needed help but he was too shy and embarrassed to ask the help of other lanterns in his fast mission and like him all the lanterns were just new recruits.
They needed a professional help and only one person could help them. Rocket. So using the Milano he directly contacted Rocket. Rocket who was chilling at the home of John after having a huge banquet with Nova Prime was woken up by the call.
"Hey Groot. Where are you? I have been dying alone. Wait who are these people? Gamora? What are you doing with them?" Rocket asked as he saw their faces in the video call.
"I am Groot... I am Groot.. I am Groot." Groot said.
"Hmm.. I understand. Bring them here to Xandar. We will handle Ronan. Peter and others have already been set free by the Nova Prime so you three don't have to worry. Xandar will be perfectly safe for you." Rocket said.
John on the other hand got a call from Sasuke narrating him what had happened. Sasuke was supposed to intervene between them but after the emergence of Groot he kept himself in the shadows.
"Wow so the lantern corps are online. I hope there won't be many deaths in the beginning for them."

As he was thinking that Rocket came to his room to ask about them Gamora and others coming with Groot and explained the whole incident. Even though John knew what had happened he didn't know what happened after they escaped as he didn't ask Sasuke.
"Sure bring them here. Didn't we want a confrontation against Ronan. I hope they come after us. Will be fun." John said. Rocket was ecstatic as he didn't expect John would be so helpful in this regard. John on the other hand was happy and hoped Ronan would come to Xandar to attack as he did with Kyln.
This would be his stage to shine and pave the path for his works in the Nova Empire. Groot and everyone reached Xandar after few hours, thanks to the fast speed of Milano.
Peter had doubts on the fact that were actually free from Nova Empire's wanted list but when they saw they they could enter Xandar without any problems they got relieved. Groot directly took them to the home of John where Rocket was waiting for them.

Meanwhile, after the huge failure of Ronan he directly called Thanos and said that the orb was a fake one as the Collector already said the same thing.
"I want to go and search for Gamora. Your daughter betrayed us. This was not the plan. You need to compensate for this." Ronan said.
"The only compensation you will get is your head still in the body. You made my favorite daughter alienate from me." Thanos said in a grave tone.
"Alienate her from you? She already hated you from beginning from what I heard from the Kyln prison." Ronan replied.
"I need support in catching her. She has way too many friends who are powerful. In Kyln and in Nowhere we were stopped twice." Ronan continued as he still thought that Victor was the friend of Gamora as he let them escape.
"Friends? My daughter has friends outside?" Thanos murmured.
"Proxima Midnight go to Dark Aster and assist him in finding the orb. This is the last help I will give you boy. If you can't return with the orb the next time I will come for your head." He said then.
Ronan who listened to Thanos couldn't speak in higher tone. He felt more humiliated and he secretly made up his mind that if he even find a chance to take revenge he will do so. He was really interested in the orb that Thanos was searching and wanted to see what secrets it held that Thanos was ready to send Gamora, Nebula and now another member of the Black order.

Groot and others reached the home of John. Gamora and Peter were surprised to see Victor and the red suit guy at the home, while Groot was happy to see his old friend again.
"How was training? Did Hal kick your ass?" Rocket asked.
"I am Groot."
"Well he better be otherwise I won't mind blowing him up." Rocket said.
Gamora, Peter and John were still looking at Victor and others. John too came in to see the whole team of 'Guardians of the Galaxy'.
"Mr. Quill, I am John Jameson. Welcome to my home."
"Your home? This is big. You must be rich. Umm I want to know why did you help us? I don't think we are your friends." Peter asked.
"I have my own reasons. Maybe because we both come from same planet."
"You are from Missouri too?" Peter asked.
"No Missouri is just a state in USA which is on planet earth. I live in a different state in the same planet. Well enough about me. What are your plans?"
"I don't know. We can't go out of Xandar because of Ronan. He is way too powerful."
"Where is Yondu? Call him. I am sure he is pretty much angry of you betraying him." John said.
"What the hell? How do you know of Yondu." Peter asked almost getting scared.
"He is some kind of prophet. Don't think much of it." It was Rocket who said that. "Now how do we blow up Ronan?" Rocket intervened.
"No.. No.. How do you know of Yondu?" Peter insisted on knowing.
"He has a weird power to see future. That's how we helped you in Kyln prison, even tried helping you in Nowhere, Sasuke accompanied you in that journey." Rocket replied as he now understood a little bit of the power of John. While they talked Sasuke emerged from nowhere.
"Huh this guy helped me in Kyln." Drax said who was silent all this time. "Thank you."
Sasuke just nodded at him and vanished again.
"So now can you call Yondu?" John asked again.
"Ok. But what do you want me to say to him?" Peter asked.
"Tell him that we have the original orb and to spread this information to Ronan. I am sure he will come running by for it."
