The Guardians And Pranks

"Damn it Rocket! Stop putting turds in my bed". Peter came yelling at Rocket, remembering their argument while being pursued by the Sovereign.

"Quill, what are you talking about? That does sound like me though I didn't put anything in your bed". Rocket honestly tells Peter.

Peter was shocked that Rocket was being honest with him. Drax put his hands up and said that it wasn't him.

"Drax, Come on. It was yours"!. Peter attempts to reason with Drax.

"I'm telling you Quill I didn't put it in your room"! Drax says back to Peter.

Peter seemed clueless. He knew that Gamora could not have put in his bed (Like Gamora could pull pranks). Peter looked at Groot and thought for a moment. Groot had grown a little bit since the incident with Peter's evil father.

"I am Groot". Groot says as he looks Quill in the eye.

"Come on Groot, who else could've done it. I mean can you seriously see Gamora doing this". Peter says back to Groot, trying to get an honest answer.

"I am Groot". Groot says back to Quill.

"Come On". Peter shouts in outrage.

Rocket then yells in outrage. Everyone else was wondering what was wrong. Rocket then looked at Groot.

"Groot! I told you to leave your little game in your room"!. Rocket exclaimed as he showed Groot his little video game.

"I am Groot". Groot says back to Rocket.

"You're saying somebody planted the game there". Rocket asks Groot as he saw Groot was being honest with him. Groot nods in return.

Gamora comes in yelling at Quill.

"Peter! Stop leaving your tape: Hot Stuff in the player! You know I hate that song"!. Gamora shouts at Peter.

"Hahaha! That's hilarious Gamora but I never played that song yesterday. I was listening to Star Man. You know, David Bowie". Peter snorts as he honestly tells her the truth.

Gamora realizes he's telling the truth as she rolls her eyes. You know Quill is telling the truth when he's using famous Earth Singers from when he was a boy.

"Ok what's going on? I've been pranked, Rocket's been pranked and now you Gamora"? Peter asks in outrage.

"What happened to you and Rocket". Gamora asked in confusion.

"Somebody put Drax's turd in Quill's bed. It wasn't me, honest. Somebody put Groot's little game on my equipment". Rocket answers for Quill.

Gamora looked at Groot, giving him the "Mom Stare". Peter remembered when his mother used to give him that look when he messed up.

"Gamora, we already checked. Groot didn't do it. Somebody planted it". Peter says as he watched her.

"So it's either Daisy or Mantis. Daisy, right now is flying the ship". Gamora says to the team.

"Ok but can you really think that Mantis could prank people. IT'S MANTIS QUILL! HAHHAHAAA!". Rocket adds to conversation.

After Rocket's very real laughing, the group began to wonder who else could. Peter and Gamora eventually came to the save realization. They suddenly heard laughter from the cockpit. Gamora smiled, knowing it was from the pilot seat. Right on cue, Drax started bursting out laughing pointing at all of them.

"IT WAS YOU"! Peter yelled in outrage at the truth.

Drax calmed down eventually while still grinning.

"No, well yes but it wasn't just me". Drax says to Quill.

Peter and Rocket were beyond confused while Gamora subtly smiling, knowing who helped Drax.

"She helped you, didn't she"? Gamora asks Drax.

"Ha, it was actually more like he helped me"! Daisy Johnson replied through the speakers.

Peter and Rocket's mouths dropped at the real truth. Of everyone they thought, they never figured that newcomer Daisy would be capable of hilarity. She usually kept Peter and Rocket from killing each other. Now, she's pulling pranks with Drax? The team made it up to the pilot seat. Daisy turned around smiling like a kid. They all busted out cackling like maniacs but they calmed down eventually.

"I had no idea that you were capable of pranks. Why have you been hiding this". Peter says in amazement.

"And that you were so good at it". Rocket continues while smiling.

Daisy suddenly stopped smiling and the cheery mood soon turned sour. Daisy had such a sad look on her face that she rarely showed. Mantis touched her hand and a few tears went down her face in sympathy. Daisy smiled and put her hand on Mantis shoulder to ease her mind. Mantis nodded and let Daisy talk.

"I used to pull them on my old team. We were much easier back then before everything went to Shit. Before my parents, Hive, Fitz... After what they did, I couldn't... not anymore". Daisy says as she fought the tears coming from her eyes.

The group suddenly felt like shit. Eventually, Daisy had told them about her past. Her past was a very sensitive topic and not one to casually talk about, much like how Gamora doesn't talk about her time with Thanos. They knew how half of her own team had blamed her and went behind her back. They didn't trust her. At first, it was just leading but later, they couldn't trust her as a comrade. Only Mack: The director she had appointed and her Mentor: Melinda May had stood by her after her loving father figure:Phil Coulson had died. The Guardians realized what her pranking meant to them and herself.

Groot leaped on Daisy's shoulder and hugged her as she cried. Peter and Gamora went to hug her. Rocket was looking like he said the worst thing he could possibly say.

"You need to listen okay. We will never turn our back on you Daisy. I mean, let's be honest, even with Gamora, we wouldn't survive this universe without you". Peter says as Daisy calmed down with her tears.

"We were pretty lucky before we met you. With all of these idiots with me. I'm surprised I'm still alive these past few years". Gamora whispers to Daisy as she hugs her.

"And besides, We seriously love your pranking! You're very talented and that's coming from someone who was the pranking master!". Peter continues, cheering up Daisy.

Daisy was finally smiling. She knew they wouldn't betray her but it was hard to let go of old memories. They finally let go of her and she smiled at them through the tears.

"It's okay guys. I'm fine now. It's just old wounds acting up again. It happens". Daisy says to the team, trying to waive off their concern.

"That doesn't make it okay Daisy. Family should never betray each other. It's never okay to do that ever". Peter says as he stares at Daisy.

Daisy knew he was thinking about Yondu and what he meant to that old ravager. Watching Yondu give his life for Peter was another reminder to Gamora of what real family is like.

"I know Peter. I know that now. When I was little, it happens a lot. You get used to it". Daisy replies to them.

She says it like it was a prepared speech. Maybe it was prepared ever since her days at Saint Agnes.

"You'll never have to get used to it with us". Drax says behind her, smiling.

Daisy smiled, looking at this crazy family that was willing to die for each other. Suddenly they got a beep from the ship's controls. Daisy went over to see what it was.

"What is it Daisy"? Gamora asks her.

"We got a request from Denarian Dey. He says that he needs us to track down an old fugitive that has escaped". Daisy says, smiling at the idea of another adventure.

"Dey? I guess he likes us since we saved them a few years ago. What's he paying us"? Peter says, thinking it over.

"40,000 units". Daisy replied, snorting as well.

"Whoah! All right! Let's get moving Flowers! Let's meet up with him already"! Rocket yells excitedly.

Daisy laughs as she plots a course for Xandar as she and Quill pilot the ship. Unfortunatley, he started playing another song from his Zune app. Damn it! Daisy loves some of his songs but she really misses the times when it's quiet. She couldn't believe that she actually understood her mentor's love of the solitude now.

Authors Notes: Well, I hope you like this guys. I decided to go for a somewhat comedic episode this time. We all know it was a matter of time before Daisy started pranking the Guardians. Let me know your thoughts. I will look into any requests as well.
