Badoon Dominion
Beads of sweat trickled down her face as Gamora moved through the crowded alley. The Bazaar was swarming with seas of blue skinned Coorgians. As she pulled her hooded cloak closer, the overwhelming heat threatened to stifle her.
Spots of white swam behind her eyes as she pushed through the rowdy crowds. The air was filled with sounds of competitive shopkeepers trying to hawk their goods to an uninterested audience. From the corner of her eye Gamora could make out a lithe Coorgian shaking her belly seductively to the beats as the hapless crowds hollered and clapped.
This was insanity.
There could literally be no reason for Gamora to ever visit this mudball of a planet with its hapless inhabitants, yet here she was, jostling and fighting her way through sweaty masses of bodies.
With great difficulty, the Zen- Whoberian squeezed her way to one of the shops lining the alley, pushing away unwanted groping hands.
She breathed a sigh of relief. The old Coorgian (with all kinds of hoops and piercings all over her wrinkled face) stared openmouthed at the tall green alien, standing at least a feet taller than her.
Gamora ignored the woman and switched on the holo, shoving it at her face and yelled over the din:
" HAVE YOU SEEN THIS WOMAN?"
The old Coorgian took a peek at the alien tech and made a feeble attempt to touch the holo and immediately drew back when the floating holo disintegrated at her touch.
Gamora rolled her eyes and moved away from the shopfront, wrestling people away and parting her way towards a secluded shop under the colourful banners hanging from the ropes suspended between the shops.
The Coorgian man sat behing rows of decaying gaudy trinkets, puffing out smoke through his lips. The man nonchalantly looked at the Whoberian and twitching his furry red ears, went back to his state of blissful ignorance.
It wasn't Gamora's fault that half of the Coorgians lived under the influence of such worldly pleasures, oblivious to anything happening around them.
Stupids.
Gamora switched on the holo, and made a " have you seen her gesture" with her hands and facial expressions. She could only hope the man was coherent enough to comprehend the meaning of the gesture. Gestures were all she had now. Apparently, Coorg was too primitive for the translators to actuqlly work on their language.
Up came the figure of Mantis, with her antennae and her black abyss like eyes, shrouded in the blue glow of the holo-cam.
The man took a puff, peered at the floating figure, and pretending to think, mockingly puffed out the smoke all over Gamora's face.
Snickers and peals of laughter followed as the alien jerked and threw back the hood of her cape, coughing and knocking over a few trinkets in the process.
She scowled at the man and blended in with the crowd, trying her best to blend in and keep it low.
The tales of Thanos and his lovely daughters had travelled far and wide into the galaxy, even reaching the ears of the inhabitants of the planets as primitive as Coorg. It was too dangerous for her if she was recognized. People would have her head.
Gamora's flaming scarlet hair was hardly unnoticeable, and combined with her green skin, it was impossible not to recognize her as the last of the Zen- Whoberians and more importantly, as the Most Dangerous Woman in the Galaxy, Thanos' legacy, his sole supposed heir.
She quickly put the hood back on, covering her scarlet tresses and moving on, hoping the Coorgians hadn't noticed. Cause if they did, it would be very difficult to complete her assigned task and additionally very difficult to make it out of Coorg alive.
Gamora had just recently joined the so called Guardians of the Galaxy, a rag-tag group of pretend superheroes and she had literally no idea what to think about her new teammates when considering the fact that they had managed to lose their fellow teammate Mantis at their very third mission.
Nice start they had here.
As a member, Gamora took her duties very seriously and had ensured (as much as she could) that the rest of the team made efforts to find their fellow teammate and in the process, finding herself allotted to one of the least known and most backward planet in the Galaxy.
" Nice to finally meet you, Gamora." , a smooth voice said and Gamora jerked her head towards the source of the voice.
Perched on the roof of a broken shop was a armour clad woman. Gamora took in her golden armour and her red hair flowing with the wind, unable to recognize the Alien's specie. The woman's eyes glowed and most importantly, her hands weren't empty.
The woman pounced at Gamora, toppling them both afainst the now shrieking and stampeding crowds. Gamora kicked the woman away, taking her moment to switch open Godslayer, Thanos' gift to his heir and swung it at the woman.
The woman swung her sword and they engaged in a brief scuffle, all the while ignoring the panicking people, pushing and shoving to escape.
"You will wish you never brought me here. You cannot hide, no matter where you go, I will find you."
Gamora could not imagine how the attacker had managed to find her at such a crowded place.
Oh wait. Ofcourse it was the hair. Her scarlet tresses were too vibrant to go unnoticed by trained eyes.
Gamora pulled out the detachable dagger from her sword and aimed at the attacker's shoulder, the attack deflected as the woman moved and the dagger clashed with her armour.
"I don't know What You Are Talking About!" Gamora yelled and charged another blow as the attacker brought out another weapon.
Sounds of metal on metal resounded through the now almost empty alley, as every attack was defended.
"Shame on you! You are not only a kidnapper but a LIAR as well. You ARE A LIAR!"
"You've got no idea what you're accusing me of. I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE! STOP THIS-" the rest of Gamora's voice cut off as she slammed into a box of crates piled against a shop wall.
She whipped around and swung her sword, except she couldn't. Waves of blue surrounded her, choking her as gradually every part of her body fell prey to the bluish light surrounding her.
She looked up and....... Korvath.
Korvath waved dismissively at his men and smirked, giving her a mock salute and walking up to her, said-
" You have angered Our Lord, sister. And for what? The Guardians? Wouldn't you say anything to your Big Brother? Oh no! Don't try. It will only get tighter. There! Better isn't it?"
Gamora glared at the man before her. Korvath. Last time she knew, Korvath had been in a Xandarian prison, serving sentence for all the crimes he had ever committed under Thanos.
"Yo..u...hav...n't...chan..ed.....a..bit......Bi..g...Bro..ther"
Korath shook his head, his dark eyes mirthfully taking in Gamora's challenging look.
"When we sacrifice you to our Lord Thanos, you shall pity everything you've ever done. Alas, you shall not live to see Our Lord's noble reign." Korvath laughed and dismissively waved his hand towards the people standing behind him.
Thanos. Thanos was back. How?
"I believe you shall join our noble cause." The approaching woman said. Her robes swished as she approached Gamora and gently touched her forehead. Gamora jerked away her head from the Believer, choking as the blue light tightened around her throat.
Gamora could make out her attacker, as she moved towards Korvath. The woman said something to Korvath and Gamora watched as Korvath blasted the woman away.
"You have served your purpose, Warrior. You are of no use now. Stupid of you indeed. You should learn that intellect is always superior than strength. However, Lord Thanos would make sure to honour your part in his coming."
"You lied! To a Hunter! You have betrayed me."
As the scuffle continued in the background, the Believer continued tapping at her forehead, mumbling soothing words under her breath. As Gamora started falling into a trance, the blue light receded, freeing her bit by bit.
She took her chance.
Gamora instantly kicked the Believer away, and clicked open a latch on her belt, quickly tapping at her temples as the small sphere fell down.
As the helmet surrounded her head, the smoke detonator touched the ground.
And all hell broke loose.
