Battle on Sovereign

The Battle on Sovereign was a mission employed by the Sovereign people, who hired the Guardians of the Galaxy to stop an Abilisk from terrorizing their planet. 
==Background==
The Guardians of the Galaxy became known across the galaxy for their role in defeating Ronan the Accuser and saving the planet Xandar. They were hired by Ayesha, the High Priestess of the Sovereign, to defeat an Abilisk, a beast who was slowly devouring her home planet's power source. In exchange, Ayesha promised to release Gamora's sister Nebula, whom the Sovereign had arrested following the Battle of Xandar, into their custody.
==Battle==
When the Abilisk arrived, the Guardians of the Galaxy got ready to fight as Groot plugged in Star-Lord's music and began dancing while the rest were thrown around by the Abilisk. The Guardians flew around the Abilisk and fired at it but all of their attacks didn't work Drax then stated to Gamora that he thought that the Abilisk has to be cut through on the inside and proceeded to jump into its mouth. Star-Lord then came up with a real plan to shoot the cut on its neck.
Star-Lord and Rocket distracted it by flying above it to give Gamora a shot at its neck. Gamora ran out of ammo, so she got out her sword and cut through the Abilisk's neck, killing it and releasing Drax.
==Aftermath==
The Guardians of the Galaxy met with Ayesha, who held up her end of the bargain and handed over Nebula. Ayesha then started talking about Peter Quill's parentage, which he was unaware of who his father was at the time. As the Guardians left, Rocket revealed to Drax that he had stolen some Anulax Batteries.
As the Guardians left the planet, a fleet of Sovereign drones appeared and opened fire on the Milano, starting an escape attempt that ended with the fleet being destroyed by Ego and the Guardians crash-landing on the nearby planet of Berhert.
