What if the original version of Gamora is in Guardians of the Galaxy Volume Three
(Alternate)
(Peter Quill and Gamora (original version) reunite)

PETER QUILL: (looking up at the hooded figure) Who are you?

The hooded figure takes off the hooded cloak, revealing herself to be none other than the original self of Gamora.

GAMORA: Someone who loves you.

PETER QUILL: (shocked and overwhelmed with joy) Gamora!

Peter Quill and Gamora pull each other into their tightest hug as Peter Quill sobs.

PETER QUILL: I’ve really missed you, Gamora.

GAMORA: I’ve really missed you too, Peter.

PETER QUILL: (whispering with his head buried in her shoulder) I can’t believe I got you back.

Peter Quill and Gamora stay like that for a moment before they break apart. Gamora notices tears still in Peter Quill’s eyes.

GAMORA: What’s wrong, Peter?

PETER QUILL: It’s nothing.

But Gamora is not buying it. She knows Peter Quill better than anyone even to where she is able to tell when something is wrong with Peter Quill and when there is isn’t. And so she lifts Peter Quill by the chin and gently forces him to make eye contact with her as she holds his hands wrapped in both of her hands.

GAMORA: Peter, I’ve known you long enough to know when you are lying and when you are not. And right now, you are not telling me the truth. Tell me what’s wrong. Peter, I can see that you've been through so much pain. It breaks my heart to know what you went through on Titan. Please, open up to me. Tell me everything.

PETER QUILL: Gamora, it's just... everything fell apart. I lost you, and I couldn't handle it. I was consumed by guilt, by anger, by this overwhelming sense of loss. I didn't know how to process it. So, I turned to the only way I knew how to escape it all—getting drunk and drowning myself in sorrow. I mean, Gamora, you’re the love of my life, and I felt that it wasn’t right nor fair that Thanos tried to take you away from me. Even though it wasn’t healthy, getting drunk and drowning myself in sorrow was the only way I knew to deal with the pain from your death.

Gamora feels very sorry for Peter Quill and how her death has affected him very badly and deeply. Not being able to bear it at all, Gamora pulls Peter Quill into another very tight hug out of sight of Peter Quill’s apartment bedroom window which Peter Quill accepts as he buries his head in Gamora’s shoulder and cries which Gamora allows. They stay like that for a moment before they break apart and Gamora still keeps Peter Quill’s hands wrapped in her hands.

GAMORA: Peter, I want you to know that I understand. I may not have experienced it exactly like you did, but I do know how it feels to lose something precious. I've felt the weight of that pain too.

PETET QUILL: But you... you died. And I couldn't... I couldn't save you. It's my fault, Gamora. If only I had been stronger, smarter...

GAMORA: No, Peter. You mustn't blame yourself. What happened wasn't your fault. We were all facing an unimaginable threat, and we did everything we could to stop it. The circumstances were beyond our control. You are not to blame.

PETER QUILL: I wish I could believe that. But every time I close my eyes, I see your face, and I hear your voice, reminding me of what I lost. It's like a constant ache, Gamora.

GAMORA: I know it hurts, Peter. And I'm here now, I'm back. We have a chance to make things right. But we also need to heal ourselves. Together, we can find a way to move forward, to honor what we've lost while embracing what we still have.

PETER QUILL: I want to, Gamora. I want to heal and move forward. But it's hard, you know? It's hard to let go of the pain.

GAMORA: I understand, Peter. Healing takes time. But you don't have to face it alone. We have each other now. And we can lean on our friends, the ones who still stand beside us. We can find strength in one another.

PETER QUILL: You're right, Gamora. I've been so focused on what I lost that I forgot about the people who are still here for me. I have you, and I have the Guardians. I need to start embracing that.

GAMORA: That's the spirit, Peter. We'll face the pain together and help each other grow stronger. Remember, you're not alone in this anymore. We'll find a way to heal and make new memories together. We have a future to build.

PETER QUILL: Thank you, Gamora. Thank you for understanding and for being here for me. I love you.

GAMORA: And I love you too, Peter. We'll get through this. Together.

Peter Quill cannot be more than happy that the woman he loves is back in his life, and this time, the Gamora he knows.
