Yondu
looks to carlos frowning at the pinch. “Uhhhhh all I know is… it’s
round… and orange…. tangy….. uhhh… smells good…. don’t know a lot about
human food ya be honest.. but that’s the one that turnedcmy insides
against me.”

“Did it have a rind on it?” Mr Ramon asked. “As in, could
you peel it with your hands?”

Carlos grinned at Yondu and rubbed his arm.

Yondu gives carlos a playful pout then does something infront of them. He leans over and kisses Carlos nuzzling. “Pinching me wanting attention littke shit.”

Carlos was surprised and he giggled and grinned at Yondu.
But when he glanced at his family, he noticed that both of them were staring at
him, obviously very shocked.

Oh… right.

“Um… so, Dad… Mikey… Yondu and I have kinda been… dating on
the way back to Earth.”

Yondu grins and nods putting his arm around Carlos’s waist and pulling him close grinning with his sharp teeth and nuzzles.

“Huh,” Mikey said. “Well… didn’t peg you to go for bad-boys,
Carlito.”

Carlos laughed a little nervously. “Yeah… neither did I.”

“You were dating him… on the way back to Earth,” Mr Ramon
repeated. Carlos started to feel anxiety crawl across his shoulders.

“Yeah, I… I have.”

Yondu
sighs sitting next to him and nods leaning against him. “It’s known
Terrans capture and… dissect what they don’t understand. I’ve seen it….
before my crew managed break me out. I watched as another crew member
was dissected and killed….”

“Oh my god,” Mr Ramon murmured.

“I wonder if that was SHIELD,” Mikey murmured. “Or, like…
the CIA or something.”

Carlos shrugged slightly. He hadn’t heard about this from
Yondu before… it made sense why he was so nervous being on Earth now.

Yondu shrugs. “all i know is that…… they were Terrans. And…. they tore up my friend. Didn’t even have the decency to kill him first……. not even we….. do that…. we have illegal experimentation but…. I’ve never heard anyone keeping you alive or awake for that shit….”

“That sounds pretty illegal for us,” Mr Ramon told him. “Those
are crimes against humanity.”

“When has the CIA followed the law, Dad?” Mikey asked. “And
I don’t know if ‘crimes against humanity’ laws protect non-humans anyhow.” He
looked at Yondu. “Though, it looks like they really outta, since it’s obvious
that we’re not alone in the galaxy.”

“I had no idea, Yondu,” Carlos told him the Ravager Captain.
“Had I known… Iwouldn’t have pushed so hard to make you come with me.”

Mr Ramon frowned slightly. “But, Mr Udonta, for what it’s
worth I’m very glad that you did
come. I am so grateful for what you’ve done for my family, and I’m glad that I
can say that to your face. Thank you.”

Looks to carlos and smiles ears flicking. “I promised. I just…. might have issues like what just happened….. …. and… mr. Ramon…. I’m glad I came too. Carlos speaks highly of his family. Hmmmm you know… in space they have treatments for walking and for those in wheel chairs. Get a few cybernetics you’ll be playing hard ball in the arena…”

Mikey smiled at him. “Thanks, man, but if I start toting
around alien cybernetics people are going to wonder where I got it, how much it
cost, and if I can be blackmailed into getting more.” He shrugged slightly. “I’m
a software designer – walking’s for zombies. I don’t need to do that stuff.
Besides – girls like a guy with strong arms.” And with that Mikey flexed his
arms playfully with a cheeky grin.

Carlos smiled at Mikey.

“Would you like to stay for dinner?” Mr Ramon asked. “Or… if
you can eat Earth food, that is. I know how to cook quite a bit though, and I’m
very willing to cook to your palate.”

Yondu laughs a bit and shakes his head. “I.. Uhh sure. Only human food I cannot eat is your fruit. We all found out that hard way on that. I do t care for a repeat. Carlos… your family should try beastie worms. You liked em right?”

Carlos smiled. “Yeah, they’re a great snack,” he agreed. “Not
exactly for a meal though,” he then
added and reached to gently pinch Yondu on the arm.

“Well… Yondu, humans use a lot of fruits and technical
fruits in their food,” Mr Ramon said. “There’s a vast amount of different
species of fruit, actually. Do you know which kinds are the ones that gave you
a bad reaction?”

“Well…
I haven’t been screamed at yet….. must be because I’m blue.” Grins at
carlos and follows him to the main room checking all the windows we’re
covered good only then taking a seat and taking the hood off again but
he stayed on edge his arrow bared and a whistle waiting on his lips if
he needed it. He glanced at the two Terrans. “So…. carlos yer boy… he’s…
well…..he’s ok…. nothing wrong with him…. found him on a space colony
m-Marvin. Little shit hole of s place….. but we was lucky he was there.
Pretty sure we’d have been like my dead without him.” Smiles at carlos.
“I.. made him a deal. Fix my ship…. I bring ya home. I keep ma
promises.”

“He was at a space colony?” Mikey asked. “For nearly a year?”

“How did it all happen?” Mr Ramon asked Carlos. “You were
telling me that Hammertech was failing and you lost your job, and then… you
stopped returning my calls. I sent emails and I called your landlord and the
police and…”

“I know, Dad – I know, I know,” Carlos said quickly. “But…
well, I was abducted.” Carlos sighed and started to tell the story. About the
Xandarians, the Nova Corps, and then getting abducted again.

“Again??” Mr Ramon exclaimed. “What is it about humans that makes people want to take them??”

“Wellllll to be honest slaves that won’t talk back. Whatcwith ya all not being space faring save the occasional few it’s like a good stock of slaves….. my species were much the same ya see….. we were a lot like Terrans…. until we were all snatched up…… but Terrans are still to squishy to be used as battle slaves and such. Haven’t evolved enough to be deemed dangerous and useful…… dangerous….. only to soloists…. but against a large group? No. Our smallest little space rat could take a terran out no joke. But every now and then there’s someone out there that gets a itch for Terrans they need ya scratch and there ya go…. now… just ya be clear… I didn’t avduct ya. My moron boys did. But… don’t see ya complaining now carlos.” Grins at him.

Mr Ramon just seemed concerned.

“The Xandarians that got me were just having fun – they weren’t
looking for a slave,” Carlos said quickly. “Yondu’s guys – Kraglin and Peter –
they were looking for an engineer. They were in a bad spot and they needed
someone who could fix their engines, and they thought that person could be me.”

“They were right of course,” Mikey quipped with a grin. “You
were one of Hammer’s best engineers so they got lucky!”

“Peter… that’s a human name,” Mr Ramon said with a slight
frown.

Carlos blinked. He looked at Yondu, wondering if he wanted
to explain that.

“Peters my son. Adopted of course terran… mama died…and well… I knew her….. so I took the boy under my wing. One of the best crew I got but my boy first and foremost…..” he peeks out the shades to check the darkness and if light was starting to show. He was edgy worried. Even scared.

Carlos looked to Yondu. He took his arm and gave it a gentle
squeeze, hoping to calm him down a bit.

“You adopted a human child?” Mr Ramon asked him.

“Yeah,” Carlos said. “Peter’s a great kid – he grew up in
space so he’s well-adapted.”

Yondu nods then his ears twitch and he sees the flashing lights and sirens and in a blur he was up and zipping down the hall and trying to crawl under the bed as quick as he could.

Mikey and Mr Ramon were shocked when Yondu bolted. Carlos got
up and ran right after him. “Yondu! Yondu, it’s okay!” Carlos called after him.

Yondu had gone to Mr Ramon’s room and Carlos knelt right
beside the blue man. “Yondu, that was just an ambulance – a medical car.
Someone probably just got in a car accident. It’s not for us, Yondu, I promise.”

Yondu peeks out the window arrow glowing feircly fin glowing red eyes searching the dark roads for any sign. His ears twitching and flicking before he relaxed and looks to him and sighs.

Mikey rolled to the door and peeked in, as he was able to
get there faster than his dad. “Carlos? Everything okay?”

“We’re fine,” Carlos told him. He put a hand on Yondu’s
cheek and rubbed his thumb into the cheekbone, trying to help calm him. “It’s
okay, Yondu… nobody knows you’re here.” He then took the blue alien’s hands and
stood up, tugging to help pull him up.

Follows him to standing looking around the room curiously then back to carlos. “I’m good… that.. Uhh siren just…were taught to fear those sounds…..and lights…”

“I get it,” Carlos said with a nod. “Come on…” He hooked his
elbow with Yondu’s and started to lead him back out to the main room.

Mikey turned his chair and wheeled ahead of them. Mr Ramon
was standing in at his chair, completely confused, but sat back down as Carlos
and Yondu approached.

“Is… everything alright?” he asked carefully.

“Yondu was a Kree battle-slave when he was younger,” Carlos
explained. “He’s very fearful of getting captured again by anyone.” Normally
Carlos wouldn’t have said something like this to anyone about Yondu, but… this
was his family. He just found himself willing to tell them anything they wanted
to know.
