Ending Explained
In the climax of "Guardians of the Galaxy," directed by James Gunn, the Guardians confront Ronan the Accuser, who plans to use the powerful Orb to destroy the planet Xandar. The team, consisting of Peter Quill (Star-Lord), Gamora, Drax, Rocket, and Groot, stages a daring assault on Ronan's ship, the Dark Aster. During the battle, Groot sacrifices himself to protect the team, encasing them in a protective cocoon of branches.
Peter distracts Ronan by dancing, allowing Drax and Rocket to destroy Ronan's warhammer, which houses the Orb. Peter then grabs the Orb, and with the help of the other Guardians, they collectively harness its power, disintegrating Ronan. The Guardians hand the Orb over to the Nova Corps for safekeeping, ensuring it won't fall into the wrong hands.
In the aftermath, the Nova Corps expunges the Guardians' criminal records, and they decide to stay together as a team. Rocket plants a sapling from Groot, which begins to grow, hinting at Groot's regeneration. The film concludes with the Guardians setting off for new adventures, solidifying their bond as a family.
