Earth had changed a lot in the past thirty years since Peter had been been abducted by Yondu and his ravagers. It was one of the many reasons he had kept himself from returning there, knowing it would not be like the place he had left behind. The main reason though; had been because Earth only served as a reminder of what he had lost. Which was only made worse, now that he knew his father had been the cause of his mothers death.
Luckily; he didn’t plan to stay for long. He and his team where there to obtain an object and once they retrieved it they would be gone. He wasn’t exactly sure where the Guardians next destination would be, but it would be better than here that was for sure. Eying the necklace on the unconscious mans neck, Quill reached forward to grab it only to be stopped as footsteps could be heard coming up from behind him.
Instinctively, he went to reach for his blaster that was tucked beneath his jacket but quickly dropped his hand back to his side. This didn’t have to turn into a fight. It would actually be better if it didn’t. Guns going off would no doubt wake the man from his sleep and this might be the only chance he had to retrieve the necklace. Peter turned around to look at the person behind him. “He’s still breathing. Just too drunk I think.”
“well, i’m quite sure that could be fixed.” simple words, but one’s that put into perspective what ky would do if he got close enough to man. life didn’t really matter to him most days – if the guy was on the ground, he more than likely pissed someone off… or was drunk. either way? he didn’t care. not truly at any-rate.
even so, his arms slipped behind his back, and hands slid into his pockets. there was no use in causing more of a scene then their needed to be, but even so… ky never could avoid a good show. “if you apply enough pressure everything stops breathing one way or another.” a risk, but one he was willing to take in all reality.
“think of it more as… advancing upon someone’s destiny than actually killing them.” shortly after his words, he gave a shrug. “fair is fair when they are out like this, don’t you think?”
