“I
lied…. peter doesn’t know the truth either….. he can’t know that
murdering bastard…. and I’ll keep him as far away from him as I can…”“What murdering bastard?” Carlos asked him. “Do you… are you talking about his father? Yondu, what the hell were you doing? Kids? Banished? Yondu, please – tell me clearly: what happened??”Carlos was very concerned – he had never heard of any of this before. What did Yondu do exactly before they even met??
Sighs. “His fathers name is ego. He’s a celestial very powerful being… ego cane to earth and mated a woman andcpeter was born. He went all over the galaxy mating with all species… and producing children. He… asked me to bring some of his children that were orphans.. mothers having died… he promised a world that I’d have… killed for as a child… so I brought him a dozen or so of his kids….. it wasn’t until right before peter I realized what he was doing….. he was killing them. If the didn’t hold some trait he was looking for or what he’d kill them…… I found peter and I kept him.. to protect him… but my ravager family found out about the others… and banished from the only family I knew…..they never speak….. I killed those kids…. breaking the code… I just… i was stupid to have fallen for his lies….”
Carlos listened carefully, trying not to let his alarm and uneasiness take away from what exactly Yondu was telling him and how it was making him feel. Every word just sounded more and more horrible though, and Carlos wasn’t liking it at all. Yondu was hurting so badly with this… he was carrying a huge burden and he was hiding it from Peter. And maybe Kraglin? (He didn’t know – he got the feeling Kraglin was around before Peter). Tullk probably knew too… and he was still sticking around Yondu, despite everything.
“You… you thought you were giving children the opportunity to grow up with family,” Carlos said softly. “And… and this Ego guy… I don’t think he would have told you what was happening to them, would he?”
