"You want me to write up three separate contracts for a genie's wishes?" Daredevil stared at Peter with a confused and incredulous look on his face.

"Yes." Peter nodded.

"..." Matt stared at him for a moment before speaking again "Did you find a Genie or something? Because if not, then this is a giant waste of my time..."

"I cannot confirm or deny anything, but I can say that this isn't a waste of time." Peter explains cryptically.

...

After some more convincing, Peter clarified explicitly how important it was that the contracts were airtight, leaving no loopholes or room for misinterpretation.

By the time Peter left him to do his work, Matt was convinced that his boss found a Genies lamp or some sort of monkeys paw that would grant him wishes.

'What a lucky b*stard...'

—————————————

While waiting for the contracts to be drawn up, Peter portal'd back to the Guardians.

As soon as he stepped into the ship, he found that his crew was rather somber and quiet, which wasn't like them at all.

"What the hell's going on?" Peter asked in confusion.

"That city in Xanov we visited was destroyed by the Chitauri." Quill said as he showed a galactic news video of the decimated city ruins.

"They killed everyone." Drax said with a frown

In his experience, the fact that the rest of the planet was spared was truly a godsend.

Drax has chased Ronan and Thanos across the galaxy since his families deaths, so he's seen far worse than this.

So sadly, compared to most of Thanos' victims, Xanov was lucky.

"They must have been tracking us and attacked the city when we left." Peter muttered as he watched the video, joining the Guardians in their somber mood.

While everyone was watching, no one noticed the thoughtful frown on Rocket's face.

After all, he purposely ignored a call from the Nova Corps recently.

...

After finishing the video Peter turned to the crew.

Some were less down than others, but nobody liked the fact that this happened, especially since it was done in the name of tracking them down.

"I'm going to go and say my condolences to Irani and explain some things." Peter says as he opens a portal.

"Wait, I'll come too." Quill hops up and follows Peter through the portal with a bit of trepidation.

After all, he's seen the portals countless times, yet he never used them before.

"?" Peter wondered why he wanted to follow along but didn't care either way.

-Xandar-

Arriving at the front of the Nova Corps headquarters, Quill instantly spoke up.

"So, when are we getting Gamora back?" Quill asks.

'And now I know why he tagged along...' Peter thought in exasperation. "I'll go pick her up once we're done here."

That seemed to perk up Quill's mood, as he excitedly followed Peter into the downcast atmosphere of the Nova building.

Peter could feel the mournful energy of most people inside.

After all, they just lost the capital city of their empire's second-most populated planet. Not to mention the fact that many of them most likely had some colleagues, friends, or family in the city at the time.

"I'm here to see Irani Rael." Peter stepped in front of the receptionist, who instantly recognized who he was.

...

"I'm so sorry, Irani." Peter says as he was escorted into the Nova Primes office, followed by Quill. "I rushed over as soon as I heard the news."

"Thank you, Spider-Man..." Irani sighs tiredly from her desk, which was filled with all sorts of paper due to the tragedy. "We tried to contact you, but..."

Peter raised an eyebrow at her words.

"I don't remember any calls, but we did just switch ships..." Peter frowns unknowingly. "I'm sorry, Irani. If we got your call, maybe Veirus would still be standing."

"It's not you're fault." Irani says understandingly, though her face hardens in the next moment. "It's Thanos and his army."

"Speaking of Thanos..." Peter quickly explains their run-in with Thanos and his children, as well as the fact that Veirus was most likely attacked because of them. "Once again, I'm sorry."

"..." Irani frowned as she took in everything that Peter just said. "It's still not your fault."

"Maybe... Maybe not." Peter shrugs.

"Is it true about Thanos? Is he really dead?" Irani asks hopefully.

After all, one city for the death of a cosmic tyrant like Thanos was a good trade in her book.

"He was severely poisoned when he fled, though I would bet on his survival. Men like Thanos aren't so easily killed." Peter's words cause the Nova Prime to sigh sadly.

"You're right, we shouldn't get our hopes up." Irani nods in agreement. "But you did kill his 'children'?"

"Yes, Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight are dead." Peter answers.

"Can I have the bodies?" Irani asks hopefully.

"Why?" Quill asks as he didn't know why anyone would want that to begin with.

"We believe that the leaders in the destruction of Veirus were these two people." Irani says as the video call before the invasion of Xanov appeared, showing Corvus and Proxima.

"And parading the bodies of the perpetrators around will help calm the scared masses." Peter understood her thought process.

"Not exactly a parade but yes. We need to show our citizens that we can protect them and our enemies that such attacks won't go unpunished." Irani clarifies.

"Alright, you can have the bodies." Peter says as he opens a portal and deposits the corpses of Thanos' children by the door.

"Thank you." Irani says as she hits a button and some subordinates come to take the bodies away.

"It's the least that I could do." Peter didn't mind.

After all, he already took their possessions and didn't have any other use for the bodies.

Just as Peter and Quill were about to be on their way, Irani seemed to remember something.

"Umm, Starlight?" Irani looks to Quill.

"It's Starboy." Peter corrects her with a smirk.

"No, it's not..." Quill sighed in annoyance. "It's StarLord."

"Mr. Quill." She opted to just use his real name. "I thought that I should inform you..."

"What? Am I dying or something?" Quill asked as the mood in the room became serious out of nowhere.

"D-Do you know who your father is?" Irani asks nervously.

"No, my mother called him an angel, but I think she was just covering up a one-night stand or something. She was very religious." Quill recalled the happy memories of his dying mother.

"Well, she may not have been wrong..." Irani says as she shows them Quill's DNA, which was all sorts of weird.

"What is this?" Quill asks in confusion.

"When we arrested you, we noticed an anomaly in your nervous system, so we had it checked out." Irani explains as she separates the image of his DNA. "This is your mother's DNA and this... is your father's."

Compared to his mother's, which was the normal two linked strands that wind around each other to resemble a twisted ladder, his father was extremely odd and constantly changing shape, never remaining the same for long.

"I'm not a Terran?" Quill asks in shock.

"You are half Terran. Your mother was of earth. Your father, well, he's something very ancient that we've never seen here before." Irani says with a bit of trepidation.

Peter watched as Quill finally learned a bit about his Celestial origins.

'Now I have to deal with Egos seed on Earth.' Peter thought as he remembered the plot from the movie. 'Maybe I can get the Ancient One to deal with it...'

After all, Peter already had the genetic material from Knowhere's Celestial, so he didn't exactly need anymore.

'Meh, I'll check it out anyway.' Peter thought as he said goodbye to Irani and portal'd back to the ship with his stunned second in command in tow.

...

As they left, Irani started spreading the word of Thanos' defeat and the death of his children. She even shared images of their dead bodies on the news.

Of course, Irani was truthful with who was behind it and even provided pictures of the heroes for the news.

Although the goal was to stabilize the situation and show the power of the Nova Empire, she knew that it wasn't a good idea to take full credit.

After all, she and the administration of the empire were still too scared to offend Thanos too much.

In a matter of hours, the Galaxy's many news corporations coined the name Guardians of the Galaxy.

Instantly, not only was Spider-Man a galactic celebrity, but even his new crew of former criminals were all famous as well.

Spider-Man, StarLord, Gamora, Rocket, Groot, and Drax the Destroyer were quickly becoming legends among the citizens of the Nova empire and beyond.

And of course, the Nova Empire made sure to explain the Guardians close relationship to the Nova Corps.

Sadly, Yondu was a new addition, so his name wasn't among them just yet.

——————————————

After dropping off Quill, who was still stunned into silence by the news of his father, Peter returned to the tower and picked up his three genie contracts from Matt.

Though before he could summon the Genie, which he was extremely excited to do, Peter went looking for Gamora, hoping that her return would help his first mate.

*knock knock...*

"Hey, where's Gamora?" Peter asked as Nebula opened her apartment door.

"I don't know." Nebula shrugged uncaringly.

...

'Okay, I may have made a mistake...' Peter thought as he rushed around the Tower searching for his missing crew mate.

Just as Peter was about to search Tony's penthouse, Jarvis' voice filled the room.

"Sir, Miss Gamora left the planet with Mr. Stark 20 hours ago."

"That motherf*cker..."
