บท 279: Father

"Well now you know. Lex is under my control. He is in Xandar to handle the spaceship industry. I never mentioned it because this wasn't something to be proud of." John said.

"But I had no other choice. He knows about handling a company, is intelligent and came the same time Barry and Victor showed up so I thought of using him. By that time I was already starting to get used to magic and its properties. So I tried controlling him and was successful." John lied.

"It's fine we understand." Wayne said

"Umm people can we talk about the mission?" Quill said interrupting their conversation.

"Quill what do your remember of your father?" John asked changing the topic totally.

"My father? I have never seen him. Why do you ask?" Quill asked being confused as he didn't understand why his father came to the topic when they were talking about the mission.

"Because Starlord this mission is related to your father." John replied.

"What? Why is a mission related to my father?" Quill asked.

"Your father is a living planet Quill." John said.

"Huh!!...." Everybody had question mark on top of their heads because nobody understood what John meant by those words.

"Can you explain?" Gamora asked.

"There is nothing to explain. Quill's father is a living planet who sends his avatar too all of the universe to impregnate women of all species. In order to give birth to a lifeform who could help him in taking over all life forms of the universe. That's how Quill was born. Him enchanting your mother and later giving your mother a tumor which killed her. Yondu was sent to bring him to you, he did so for all other children except you." John said.

"Do you remember when I threatened Yondu with Ego? Ego is the name of your father. A literal living planet." John said.

"This is absurd and impossible. My mother died naturally in hospital." Quill denied.

"I know you won't believe me, so you can go and ask Yondu. Your father will come looking for you soon and then the whole process of taking over the world will start. You can only kill him after you can kill his brain which is buried deep inside the planet. I am giving you these teenagers to take care of, not because I want you to keep an eye on them but because these children can help you kill your father." John said.

"You controlled Trigon in order to kill Ego, didn't you? That was your plan from the beginning." Bucky asked as he got the inspiration.

"Yes. But that was only a part of it. Trigon will be our major weapon in many battles." John replied with a smile

"Are you sure my father is what you described? If he was a living planet then I should have some other physiology. I am a 100% human." Quill said still not accepting the fact.

"Are you sure about that? FOA has a med pod. You can go and test yourself. And then tell me if you are 100% human." John said.

"This guy here is human? Doesn't smell like a human." Yen said.

"He is. Half human. Born in Missouri." John said.

"You know of my birthplace too?" Quill asked, shaken now. Even though he knew John had extraordinary powers from the last encounter, he knowing his birth place was a whole new different thing.

"Didn't you get a glimpse of my power? It's fine even if you don't believe me. Take them away. And when your father comes, you can check on the story yourself. After the mission of your father, you can go to Xandar to collect money from Lex." John said.

"I am sorry Bruce, I blamed you. Here Mr. Quill has a more weird father son relationship than you and Damian." Tony said to Wayne as he listened to the story of Quill.

Nobody paid heed to it as now they have an enemy which was a living planet. Even if the Guardians of the Galaxy didn't believe me totally, the Avengers definitely trusted John more.

"Shouldn't we go and handle this Ego?" Steve asked as this problem was something that the whole universe might get affected.

"No, the Teen Titans are enough. They will complete the job. What do you all think?" John asked the teenagers.

"We can handle it perfectly." Damian said.

"If you say so. If anything goes wrong, you all need to contact us." Wayne said as he didn't try to stop the Teen Titans, they have fought together before and even against Darkseid so it would not be their first rodeo.

"Yes. I take the responsibility of the whole team." Nightwing said.

"So are you going to take the mission? I will even send FOA with you on this mission." John said.

"We are taking this mission." Rocket said without even thinking twice. Even though they were very much skeptical of what John said, Rocket trusted him totally as John had proven himself long ago so he took the mission seriously.
