"After all these years, I've finally found you."

A man spoke as the egg-shaped ship opened from the middle, revealing an old well built bearded man alongside a large-eyed Asian-looking alien woman with two long fleshy antennae on her forehead.

Quill could feel Ego's stare directed straight at him as he spoke, but that wasn't all.

He also felt this odd connection to the man, as if they were related in some way.

"And who the hell are you?" Quill asks as he and everyone else in the town reach for their guns.

"I figured my rugged good looks would make that obvious. My name is Ego and I'm your dad, Peter(Quill)." Ego revealed, shocking Quill into silence.

Peter watched the father and son meeting with a contemplative mind.

Because Ego's real body is literally a giant brain encased in a planet, killing him now would be absolutely pointless.

'His consciousness would most likely return to his planet, where he would swiftly build a new body...' Peter hypothesized.

Though that wasn't the only reason that he would have to play things slowly.

'And it wouldn't look very good if I just killed Quill's dad for no reason either...' Peter thought as he caught a glimpse of hope in his vice captain's eyes as he stared at his father in a daze.

Peter would have to wait until they're taken to Egos planet and then wait again until Quill's father reveals his true self.

'After all, no villain can ever resist the urge to monologue before their plans come to fruition.'

"Why don't we find somewhere more private to continue this conversation?" Peter steps between Quill and his father.

And as he did this, for barely a second, Peter caught a glimpse of a frown flash on Ego's face.

'Is Quill's god-like Daddy wary of little old me?' Peter smirked under his mask.

Though that wasn't the only person the old Celestial seemed wary of.

Yondu, who was standing next to Peter, also received a similar look as well.

As for the man himself, Yondu was feeling a lot of emotions right now, and none of them had to do with Stakars earlier words.

No, as soon as Ego arrived, Yondu completely forgot about those mundane troubles and felt nothing but dread, fear, and protectiveness.

After all, he knew what Ego had in store for Quill...

He witnessed what happened to all of Egos other children that he delivered.

Ego really needed to find a way to keep him quiet...

"Yes, that would probably be for the best." Ego smiles charmingly as he turns to look at the large group of armed spectators.

"Why don't you go park your ship somewhere less conspicuous and we'll arrange for a private room in that inn?" Peter says as he points to a nearby building.

"..." Ego nods as he turns to Quill. "I'll be right back, son."

"You and me both. He only kept me around because I was a skinny little kid who could squeeze into places adults couldn't. I made jobs a lot easier for him." Quill complains though Peter couldn't tell if he was being serious or not.

"Well, I've been trying to track you down ever since." Ego says as he smiles warmly at his son.

"I thought Yondu was your father." Drax spoke up with a clueless look on his face.

"No, Yondu is his Daddy." Peter says matter-of-factly as he gestures to Ego. "This is his father. There's a difference."

"You shut up!" Quill pointed angrily at Peter as he turned to Drax. "We've been together this whole time and you thought Yondu was my actual blood relative?"

"You look exactly alike." Drax seemed very sure of himself.

"One's blue!" Rocket exclaimed in disbelief.

"No, he's not my father! Yondu was the guy who abducted me, kicked the crap out of me so I could learn to fight, and kept me in terror by threatening to eat me." Quill explains thoroughly.

"Eat you?" Ego looked genuinely appalled. "That son of a b*tch..."

After all, if he actually ate Quill, then Ego's plan would be ruined...

"How'd you locate us?" Peter asks, changing the subject.

"Well, even where I reside, out past the edge of what's known, we've heard a lot about the man they call Star-Lord." Ego gives his son a proud fatherly look.

Of course, he's heard about Spider-Man as well, which is why he frowned earlier.

"What say we head out there right now? Your Captain and crew mates are also welcome. Even that triangle-faced monkey there." Ego points to their raccoon mascot.

"What did he just call me?" Rocket muttered in confusion.

He wasn't sure whether that was an insult or not...

"I promise you it's unlike any other place you've ever seen. There I can explain your very special heritage and perhaps be the father I've always wanted to be." Ego was really laying it on thick.

"We would be honored to visit your home." Peter says respectfully as he rose out of his seat. "Just give us the coordinates and we'll meet you there."

"If it's not too much trouble, I'd like my son to ride with me." Ego says as he gives Quill a hopeful look. "We have so much time to make up for..."

'Of course, you would, you sly old fart...' Peter knew that Ego didn't want Quill out of his sight, as his disappearance would stall his plans yet again. "Sure, some of us can ride with you, while the rest follow along separately. We just have to return to our ship for a second and grab some personal belongings first."

...

After assuring Ego that they would meet him at his ship in half an hour, The Guardians alongside Mantis returned to their ship.

Sadly, Mantis was forced upon them by Ego under the guise of escorting them to his ship, though Peter knew the real reason.

To make sure the key to his plan didn't run off.

Though just as they returned to the ship, Peter tapped Mantis on the shoulder and thought of all the sleepless days that he's been through.

Instantly, the poor girl collapsed into Peter's arms.

"What the hell was that?!" Rocket shouted as the rest of the crew seemed alarmed as well.

"She comes from a race of Empaths. Through touch she experiences other people's emotions as if they were her own." Peter says as he lays her down on a nearby couch. "I just projected some exhaustion on her. That's all."

...

"Okay, we have half an hour before we have to meet up with Quill's dad again. Any thoughts?" Peter asks the Guardians.

"I'm not buying it."
