As Khylen watched Macy walk through those doors to the ship, he hugged her tight before kissing her on the forehead. "I missed you," Khylen murmured into her hair, She didn't reply she just buried her head into his chest hugging him tightly. "You did a great job at protecting her." Khylen teased Warrick who rolled his eyes before hugging Khylen when Macy separated from him. "Don't blame him, you know how I can be." Macy shook her head fondly at Khylen as she explained. "I know, that's why I love you. Listen, I got some news for you." A smile crossed Khylen's face as he told Macy. "Tell me! What is it?"

Khylen opened his mouth to respond when Rocket's voice stopped him from saying anything. "You call that "I figured it out" We're gonna rob the guys who just beat us senseless." Khylen looked at Macy concerned before he led the three of them over to where Peter and the rest of his crew were. "Oh, you want to talk about senseless? How about trying to save us by blowing us up?" Peter yelled pointing his hook towards Rocket, Khylen had picked it up earlier and given it to him while they were all waiting for the other ship to dock. When Khylen saw the gratefulness on Peter's face Khylen could've kissed him right then but resisted, he wanted to wait until he told Macy.

"We were only going to blow you up if they didn't turn you over!" Rocket excused, beside him Khylen heard Macy let out a chuckle, he smirked and reached his finger hooking their pinkies together. "And how on earth were they gonna turn us over when you only gave them a count of five?" Peter yelled back, Khylen let out a sigh. This was getting tiring and it was eating into the time they could be planning to get out of there.

"Listen, what's important now is that we get the Ravagers' army to help us save Xandar." Khylen pointed out crossing his arms, Rocket turned towards him confused. "So we can give the Stone to Yondu who's just gonna sell it to somebody even worse?" Peter licked his lips before responding. "We'll figure out that part later but for now we have to stop Ronan." Rocket let out a scoff. "How?"

Peter let out a sort of huff before looking at Khylen who nodded, Macy glanced at Khylen with a raised eyebrow who just mouthed later because now wasn't the time. "I have a plan, well... I have part of a plan." Drax turned towards Peter. "What percentage of a plan do you have?" Khylen let out a scoff. "You don't get to ask questions, especially after the stunt you pulled on Knowhere." Drax looked at Khylen scandalized like he didn't know what he did. "I just saved Quill."

Peter quickly shook his head disagreeing. "You destroying the ship that I'm on is not saving me." Drax huffed but didn't rebuttal. "He's right, you don't get an opinion." Macy crossed her arms and fixed Drax with a glare. "What percentage, Peter? We gotta know." Khylen asked Peter in a soft voice not wanting Peter to think he was taking the wrong side. "I don't know, like twelve percent maybe?" Gamora let out a sigh and rubbed her forehead. "It's barely a concept."

His eyes went wide as he looked at Gamroa. "You're taking their side?" Macy let out a sigh and ran a hand through her hair. "It's better than 11%, can we figure out the rest? Yondu is gonna be here in like two seconds. We need to figure out the big plan but we can't do it without all of us." Peter looked at Macy and Khylen gratefully before nodding in agreement. "I need your help. I look around at us, you know what I see? Losers, I mean, like folks who have lost stuff. Man, we have, all of us. Our homes, our families, and normal lives. Usually, life takes more than it gives, but not today. Today, it's given us something. It has given us a chance. It's given us a chance to give a shit, for once in our lives. Not run away, I, for one, am not gonna stand by and watch as Ronan wipes out billions of innocent lives."

"But, Quill, stopping Ronan, it's impossible. You're asking us to die." Peter closed his eyes before nodding slowly, Khylen let out a short breath before looking at Macy and Warrick. "You two didn't up for this, we already lost Vaughn, you don't have to do this." Khylen licked his lips as he spoke. "Khylen, wherever you go, I'm going." Macy placed a hand on his arm and squeezed gently, the two of them looked at Warrick expectantly, the two of them would never judge him if he wanted to back out but they also couldn't deny that they hoped he would join them. "You two are the only people I have left, if you're going, I'm going."

The three of them turned their attention back towards Quill's crew and watched as Gamora stood up. "I will be grateful to die among my friends." Khylen pressed a kiss into Macy's hair as they watched Drax stand up and agree as well, Khylen walked over and nodded to Quill, then it was Rocket's turn. Khylen was a little smug as he watched Rocket let out a sigh and stand up. "Oh, what the hell. I don't get that long a lifespan, anyway." Now one thing was completed and it might be a death sentence but at least they're all doing it together.
