Once more, the Guardians of the Galaxy were in a predicament. They were being chased by a group of none so happy bounty hunters whose plans they'd inadvertently screwed up, and as a result of the bounty hunters firing at them, their ship had suffered some heavy damage. Rocket, with his sharp tongue and even sharper wit, had just managed to hotwire the engines again when he yelled out, "I don't know how much longer this thing is going to hold together!"

"I am Groot!"

"You got that right," Rocket replied, "We need to find a safe place to lay low for awhile and fix the ship!"

All of a sudden, Gamora sounded the alarm about a new problem: there was a black hole in their path! As everyone grumbled about the new problem, she said, "If we can time it rightm we might be able to use it to lose the hunters chasing us in the gravity well!"

Quill shot her a look then rubbed his hands together, "Sounds like a plan! Gamora, Rocket, can you plot us a course?"

Rocket groused, "Yeah, yeah, just don't expect anything resembling a smooth ride!"

"Hey, along as we come out the other side in something resembling one piece and our **friends** back there don't, a bumpy ride works for me!"

"Course plotted! Hang on!" Gamora interjected.

As they began to approach the black hole, the Guardians felt the pull of its massive gravity. The ship started shaking and creaking could be heard all around them. They all gripped their seats tightly.

"Well, well, well. Look who is in a lot of trouble now." Nebula sneered from the communications screen.

"What did you want, Nebula?" Quill retorted, glaring at her

"Oh, just to say goodbye, Star-Lord," she replied, her smirk growing bigger. "You're about to be sucked into a black hole where there is no escape. I'd say it's bye bye time for you.

Gamora's eyes narrowed as she also glared at her sister, "Why are you here, Nebula? Have you joined forces with those bounty hunters?"

Nebula's expression turned dark, "I'd never ally myself with them. See you on the other side.

With that, she severed communications.

The Guardians plummeted into the black hole, and everyone screamed. But after an eternity, they did emerge on the other side, more or less in one piece. Good news was they lost the bounty hunters but the bad news was they were stranded in the middle of space. They would have to make repairs, of course, but at least for the moment they had survived to fight another day.

Once the Guardians of the Galaxy found themselves on a dangerous mission that would wind up take them into the heart of a black hole. Peter Quill who also prefer to be known as Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot, Mantis, and Nebula gathered together aboard the Milano, their ship ready to go into the unknown.

As they approached the massive black hole, it's great gravitational forces already threatening to tear them apart. The ship rattled and groaned under the strain of the forces, but the Guardians were strapped in their seats, and held on tight, determined to go forward.

Nebula's cybernetic enhancements pulsed with energy as she observed the black hole intently. "This is a very dangerous undertaking, even for us. But if we are success in retrieving the prize, it might be worth the risk we are taking."

The colors of the cosmic wonder before them were reflected in the eye of Mantis, "I sense a great disturbance coming from the heart of the black hole. It is important that we uncover its source, and put an end to it."

Quill took the helm, both excitement and caution present in his voice, "Alright, Guardians, this is it! Hold on tight and believe in each other! We're taking a dive into the unknown!"

As the Milano descended into the black hole, the Guardians braced themselves for whatever was coming their way. The ship's hull started groaning and creaking, while the gravity began to mess with their perceptions of time and space

Groot's branches started to intertwine with Rocket's furry paws as they hurried to keep the ship stabilized. "Hold it together, buddy!" Rocket shouted above the din, voice strained.

"I am Groot!"

"Yeah, you and me both!"

"I shall not falter! Nothing can stand in our way!" Drax proclaimed, his muscles bulging.

They reached the even horizon, and they found themselves surrounded by a kaleidoscope of swirling colors and gravitational anomalies. It was something that would overwhelm most people, but the Guardians were a special group

The phenomenon surrounding them heightened Mantis's empathic abilities, and she closed her eyes as she reached out with her mind. "The disturbance is pulling towards a hidden pocket in the universe. We much stay focused and be cautious as we proceed.

Star-Lord navigated the Milano into gravitational forces precisely, taking them deeper into the black hole's realm. The Guardians' eyes grew wide as they beheld a breath stealing cosmic domain, filled with cosmic wonders and cosmic phenomena.

Nebula scanned their surroundings with her cybernetic eye, "There it is, the source of the disturbance. We must retrieve it before it can cause more irreparable damage."

Mantis nodded in agreement.

Quill landed the Milano, and after a few scans to be sure they would be able to breathe, they disembarked.

The Guardians took cautious steps forward as their strange, surreal environment had them all on edge. Drax was leading the way, and for once Quill was happy to let him, because maybe his muscles paired with scary appearance would intimidate who or whatever they encountered.

As they made progress, they saw a faint glowing ahead, and then as they got closer they saw that it was a crystal orb.

"This is the source," Nebula confirmed.

Gamora was for some reason she could not explain, drawn to it. She approached it, hand outstretched to touch it when suddenly a voice boomed, "Who dares to trespass in my realm?"

The Guardians were startled, but it was Nebula who came forward, "We are the Guardians of the Galaxy. We've come to retrieve the source of the disturbance that's causing problems in the universe."

They never did see the source of the voice, and after whomever it was had given her words consideration said, "Okay whatever makes you happy. Just be sure to be careful with the orb as it's a very powerful object!"

So they took the orb, left the black hole, and set a course for Xandar in order to turn the orb over to Nova Corps.

"Well done, Guardians!" Quill said as they left the black hole.

"Yeah, not bad for the galaxy's biggest idiots, huh?" Rocket said with a laugh.

With the vast blackness of space stretched out in every direction before them, both Gamora and Nebula who are sisters not by choice by the machinations of Thanos, stood by one another on the deck of the Benatar. Wounds, they had so many open wounds of the past between them that thanks to recent events, they had finally started to close. They were slowly becoming friends instead of adversaries.

As they looked out upon the beauty of space, a somber quiet filled the atmosphere. Finally, when she could take the tense silence no longer, Gamora turned to her sister, "Nebula, we've come a very long way since we were children and warriors under Thanos. We've been through a lot on our own and together. I don't know how you feel but I feel as though we're stronger together than when we are apart."

Nebula nodded, a glint of sadness tempered by resilience in her cybernetic eye, "Yes, Gamora, we have learned that we are more strong joined together than when we're fighting each other or when we are just alone."

With conviction in her voice. Gamora went on, "Alone we can do so little, but when we're together, we can and will be able to accomplish great things. I believe we even have the ability to change the course of the galaxy and make a difference."

Nebula turned away from the port, "You know, I never thought I would find solace in anyone else, especially not you. But through you, I realize that I can make my own choices, follow my own destiny. Thanos does not own me."

Nebula's gaze shifted from the stars to her sister. A flicker of gratitude shone in her eyes. "I never thought I would find solace in another person, especially not in my own sister. But you've shown me that we can choose our own destiny. Let's make a promise to each other that no matter what challenges we face ahead, we will always face them together."

Gamora nodded in agreement, "Yes, let's promise that. Let's also promise to lay down our past forever. Never again will we let it come in between us. Together, we can be a force to be reckoned with. We can be unstoppable."
