[ At this point it's second nature -- Peter's mask flares up over his face, and his blasters are in his hands.
They're going for stealth, though, and while Peter's never been great at the ninja thing, he stillducks behind a tree, motioning for Maya to do the same. He waits until the other guard comes into view, waits for the slightly puzzled expression that crosses his face to turn into alarm, before darting out behind him and slamming the butt of his blaster into the back of his head. For good measure, he hits the guy with a bolt of electricity from his gun once the dude hits the ground.
(One of the funny things about Peter is that, for having once claimed to be a ruthless outlaw, he rarely kills anyone. Sometimes he even goes out of his way to avoid it. Yondu never could break him of the habit.)
And, just because Peter is petty and in a bad mood, he also kicks the guy in the side. You know, just to make sure he's really out.
