WHO: Guardians
WHAT: Post-Wolf fight
WHERE: Center of town
WHEN: Full moon

A werewolf was not something Nebula had ever encountered in her travels throughout the universe, she had seen many things, been many places, but a Terran that shape shifted and took on the form of a wolf in the night was new to her. And though she was still a little achey and should perhaps have continued her hydration regiment with her sister, she had been among those in the center of town during the full moon, just to be certain that the wolf would not do undo harm.

Things had not gone - well.

Her aches when it was all finished had more to do with the torn metal and wiring in her shoulder than any sickness, adrenaline had fueled her to jump into the fray and it had cost her. But she was not irreparably damaged. And in the end the wolf had been contained, it was some kind of victory, but not one that left her feeling eager to celebrate. Both because of the damage she had sustained but also she knew that the wolf was one of their own too.

It was not a victory to be celebrated. Her damaged arm hung useless at her side as she made her way to her sister after things had settled down, "Gamora," She worried for her sister, wanting to make sure that above all her sister was safe. "Quill," She might not care for Quill in the same way that she did for her sister, but she did not want him to come to harm either.

Quill was proving to be helpful - she new he could be, she had seen it in him before. Despite his moments of utter ridiculousness - no doubt due to his being part Terran - but he was quick and competent as he helped her to keep her arm immobilized.

This was what Gamora had offered her once, she thought - when she had suggested she stay with them, rather than leave on her quest to end Thanos. Perhaps things would have gone differently for them if she had, if she had never let herself be captured she could never have been used to force Gamora into revealing the location of the Soul Stone.

It was no use trying to see some other way it could have happened though, what was done could not be changed.

"No, they should not." She agreed with a sigh, and shook her head. "No." It hurt, but not enough to mention or complain about to either Gamora or Quill. And it would be fixed soon enough, it was a temporary thing.

She nodded at Gamora's suggestion of their place, they would have what they needed to clean her up and Nebula would be able to assess the damage done to her shoulder a little more - though she knew she would require skilled help to truly fix it. "This way." They didn't need to wait around for someone to tell them things were finished here, it was clear enough.
