Finding Groot in the Darkness.
<div class="text-justify">

Tracking Groot led us through cells of rare creatures until we found him, surprisingly freeing himself from inside. But he acted strange, guiding us into darkness where another Groot waited. Lady Hellbender appeared, revealing the second was a shape-shifter she'd bought earlier. Groot had kept the secret for an hour before the truth surfaced, and tension filled the air.

As Groot's tracker suddenly went dark, we had to do it quickly. Peter was calm as Rocket mentioned earlier that they were close but something was disturbing Rocket so he kind of activated his flash speed through the drunk hellraisers there.

When we reached Rocket, we found he was almost done with hacking a door's lock and he did it.

We rushed forward and noticed this big hole that didn't has any railings so Peter mentioned its like they got the architect from the Darth Star. The hole was getting highlighted with lightning from above and I could see some levels below and no, I was not going to jump in there.

This level was like prison to those rare creatures that Lady Hellbender collects and there were multiple cells in different room so Gamora suggested we should split up.

Drax went to a room, Rocket followed Gamoar to another one and I was confused where to go.

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmUQGd2XjfLUBnGL9BYKDTJnpzjR6WKUTrZD7MPW9iqgrs/screenshot_9_.png)

I followed the room where Gamora and Rocket went first and noticed some rare creatures caged there and then I went to the room where Drax went and noticed some there as well.

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQJpUg4um5Hzj3He1c5G3bCJxH1Z7a73yjLWHWk1dnL6c/screenshot_11_.png)

Then we went to the last room together where surprisingly we found Groot in a cell. When I thought it'd be hard getting Groot out of the cell, he simply pressed the button from the inside and opened the door.

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmTjFt3uv1XeH2rKE5yVozWDwrPqxhR4MKypwuRvRdVwgQ/screenshot_13_.png)

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmURJH3fF8RB3yYpoG1zyDBkHg8msdJt9KaEcrYdFUzRJn/screenshot_12_.png)

I never thought it'd be this easy getting him out of his cell. Rocket hugged Groot by his leg and then Groot was acting strange as if he was an unknown person to the team.

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQAThNR7Zey3WFb1CtoTD7LyBxPU8JNXwSQ9Yzk6zN6sS/screenshot_14_.png)

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmZ7ehcYbe1fxCex5AhtT6wyskU5B7jsm7mit23tMhnMzr/screenshot_15_.png)

Without saying a thing, I mean we all know how much he loves to say, he is Groot", he was walking ahead. The team started followin him thinking he may know the way out.

And following Groot, they reached somewhere dark, real dark.

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmWboxsbCpAvcumfQCqZSorS2477d93WotDTyus9RxSJ26/screenshot_16_.png)

The darkness faded with mystery. Not a mere mystery as you can see there were two Groot. We knew Groot was the last of his kind and that's why Lady Hellbender bought him.

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmezZt6orF1pDiBrAfRT5w6zq5rZ8HsNSvMGPHdryPDpXp/screenshot_17_.png)

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmdYgEFAReVnYYLgoQgEf9MxTqEQAbvhGZTb28d4x684f2/screenshot_18_.png)

Then Lady Hellbender appeared on the scene to say how the Guardians of the Galaxy thought they'd suffer no consequence after trying to cheat her. 

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQme7nxMAbPeuMSmcUxZEpqSJTBYVLenq27uWf24qydbctg/screenshot_19_.png)

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmTaLixPC1WJktc1uVaqc92sbc78X5SutmizjK1BvJkNXM/screenshot_20_.png)

Then one of the Groot change its appearance and went to its original form, that's the shift-shaper that Lady Hellbender bought the other day. So yeah, Groot is the only one of his kind after all.

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmRwJ6KwYGEa5xtWq5ZAYmx9HwMPeeaGphYEJQe9C1nNGE/screenshot_21_.png)

![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNioN2XRLtcmmUi6ZDff1FWGLjXbAZZnaBGfHSDzUt3Xy/screenshot_22_.png)

It seemed like Groot couldn't act it well and he kept their secret for almost an hour only. Drax offered Lady Hellbender settling it honorably but the lady was not looking to fight them in person.

I'll show what happens next later.

I personally took all the screenshots from my play and I used a logo of the game from online to use in the thumbnail.

This is Pikachuuuuu signing off. Over and out.

I really liked how Groot’s bravery and connection with nature shine through in this adventure. It’s great to see him helping out and growing in such a unique way. Looking forward to more moments like this with Groot and the Guardians.

That twist with the second Groot being a shape-shifter is such a cool reveal. Great captures 🤗 @tipu curate 7
