Maybe if we would get better guns, I wouldn't have to use it.

[ Fortunately, Gamora doesn't need a gun to be deadly; they just usually have more blasting power on hand, but with only the two of them to provide ranged cover fire, it makes darting into the battlefield with so many more guns unappealing.

But they've narrowed it down significantly, so Gamora is much more confident that throwing herself into the fray will be – if not safer – manageable.

(But, then again, bringing a knife to a gunfight isn't unfamiliar to her in the slightest.)

She lifts herself into position, muscles coiled, ready to spring, and as she extends her arm and Godslayer in one fluid motion, she meets the red eyes of Peter's mask.

Three... two... one...

— And she's off.

She throws herself out of their cover, quick enough that the remaining gunners don't immediately realize she's moved into the open. That brief reprieve doesn't last long, but it's still nearly laughable how they continue to miss her; however, poor aim matched against Gamora's enhanced speed does not make for a terribly fair fight. ]
