Peter had no witty comment, no defending himself, nothing. He just stared at her in disbelief. Did she really think he was going to just sell another person to another? She was obviously pissed at him, and he was pissed at her! He lost his money, he had to escape the Collector's fleet, and he lost some quality time with a very good looking girl! She made for the exit, Gamora giving him a look. "Yes, I knew her. No, I didn't sleep with her." Quill said, walking after her. Gamora opened her mouth to say something else but Quill beat her to it. "And no, i'm not the kind of guy to sell other people." Quill called out to her.

And then everything went wrong. The guy they were looking for was taking off, then it blew up, and then his little henchmen blew up Nikki's ship.... Sure that was a very brief description, but it did seem to go incredibly fast. There was silence until Drax broke it with his literal state of mind. Quill then made his way to her. "First of all, I am many things, but a slave trader is not one of them!" He said, facing her, and pointing a finger. "Second of all, you were the one that panicked, blew up the collector's house, and flew off with ME to deal with."

"We blew up his house too though--"

"That's not the point Drax." Peter said to him, still looking at Nikki though. "So don't pretend that you know me. don't keep a non existent grudge, because the Guardians of the Galaxy are the only way off this joint as of right now."

As he finished, A speeder came driving through, and then halted in front of them, where a giant tree creature and a raccoon stumbled out. "Quill! What the hell happened?! Was that our bounty that went up in--" He stopped and looked at Nikki, looking her up and down. "Well heloo sweetheart... You need a lift?"

"I am Groot."

"That wasn't that bad of a pick-up line, shut up!" Rocket hissed at Groot.

"Yeah... We're the Guardians of the Galaxy." Quill said with a nod, with Gamora glaring at Nikki, Drax looking at the explosion, and Rocket and Groot bickering between themselves.
