Guarding the Shield

Summary:

Rocket, Groot, and Peter are caught by SHIELD. Now they have to deal with them.

Chapter 1: Planet: Earth

Chapter Text

Peter keeps visiting earth, unknowing someone is watching his comings and goings. Now he has Rocket and Groot with him.

Peter insisted the crew take a vacation

“Peter, why are you in a rush to get us off the ship?” Gamora says

“I just want you guys to feel safe here. We have been working for days, and I don’t want you guys to feel tired on the next mission.” Peter says as he pushes them off the Milano

“Maybe he has a secret lover and he’s ashamed of it” Drax says

“No, it’s not that! I just need to go do something by myself” Peter mutters

The crew just stares at him

“Just go, I’m ganna need as much time as possible” Peter gets back onto the Milano

Peter bought them a week’s vacation on Nova Corps’ best vacation hotspot.

Off to the side of the ship, Rocket is up to no good

“Groot,” he whispers, “C’mon, I wanna see what Peter’s secret is”

“I am Groot” meaning, “I don’t know about this, Rocket”

“C’mon, don’t be a baby” He sneaks onto the ship through an exhaust pipe for used air

Groot follows him, sliding through the vents with ease

The ship is taking off when Gamora asks,

“Where’s Rocket… or Groot”

--

Peter is in the Milano, checking the coordinates to make sure he is going in the right direction

“So, Peter” Peter is stunned and spills his coffee, “Where are you headed to at this time?” Rocket says with a sarcastic tone

“Jesus Chri- Rocket, what the hell are you doing here?!” Peter yells

“Finding out what this secret i-,” He looks down at the spilled liquid, “Is that… coffee?”

“What, no!”

“Where did you ge- are you going back to Earth?” Rocket says

“Uh, no” Peter yells

“Where did you get coffee then?” Rocket moves forward

“How do you know what coffee is?” Peter asks as he is pinned against the a wall

“Tony was drinking it when I was there” Rocket says

“Okay, yeah, I’ve been occasionally visiting earth.” Peter admits

“How many times?” Rocket says

“A couple of hundred.” Peter mutters

“Peter! What the hell! What if you got seen by someone! I’ve seen the alien videos, they do horrible things to them!” Rocket yells

Peter stands in silence, he hasn’t been watching his tracks when he goes and comes

“Well, we’re already close; we’ll go this ONCE and leave forever, okay?”

“Okay” Peter mumbles

Groot speaks from the background, “I am Groot” meaning, “What about me?”

“Groot, what the hell are you doing here!?” Peter yells, “Is there anybody else back there?”

“Don’t worry, just us two” Rocket says

Peter gives Rocket an angry look.

The Milano is approaching Earth now

“Now, they have a thick atmosphere, so you need to hold on, it’s ganna get rough” Peter says

Rocket gets into his passenger chair and groot gets into the back-middle chair

They start to enter Earth, Ship bouncing around from the entry

“HOLD ON” Peter yells

The ship shoves the three around, nearly beating up Rocket. Groot is fine, he is basically attached to the ship

They land in the middle of a large field in the United States

“Everyone good?” Peter asks

“Yeah” Rocket moans

“I am Groot” meaning, “Yeah”

“Good, now let’s go”

Peter opens the back door to leave, and he walks out. They are greeted with a crew of SHEILD agents, trucks, helicopters, and a few cars

Director Coulson steps out of one of the SUV’s with a megaphone, “Step away from the spaceship”

“Hey, look,” Peter says, “This is just for some movie I’m makin-“

Coulson walks up to Peter, “We know who you are… you’re an alien.” He turns around to the small army, “Take them to the Bus”

The men herd around the alien and raid the Milano

Peter yells to Rocket, “Rocket, don’t worry, don’t fight them!”

Rocket and Groot come out of the ship willingly with their hands cuffed
