"What do you mean 'grave danger'? Who are you?" exclaimed Becky.
All around the room the Botsfords glared at Star after her last statement, except Bob. Insead he was looking frantically back and forth between Star and Becky. His squeaks, only, cut through the awkward silence. Star, walking to Becky's window and peeking through the pink Pretty Princess curtains, said,
"Yes. You are in danger. Ash was only the beginning. There is a war on Lexicon, Becky, and you are at the center."
"What!? What do you mean!? I can't be at the center, I haven't been on Lexicon since I was a baby?!" was the reply.
Star looked at Becky. Her brown eyes were wide with a mixture of fear, pity, and longing. There was a small tear streaming down her cheek. Suddenly, a quiet noise, similar to the ringing of a bell radiated from the star on her choker necklace. It was almost to quiet for the Botsfords to hear, but Becky heard it loud and clear. She stared at Star, eyes wide. Then, suddenly, Star was out of the open window and flying towards the the woods. Becky ran to the window, looking after. Everyone in the room was dumbfounded. Why had she just... left? Then Becky said,
"I'm going after her. She's obviously hiding something."
She went to fly out the window, but her father grabbed her.
"Wait"he said, "we'll follow in the car, but if you insist on flying, well, do something to hide your identity. If what Star said is true, it is unsafe to fly around without any identity protection."
Becky smiled at him and gave him a small nod.
"You guys head to the car, I'll find something."
All the Botsfords filed out of the room and into their green station wagon. Bob and Becky searched the room for a piece of cloth to cover her face. They found a yellow one, just the right size for a mask and cut eyeholes in it at supersonic speed. Then, after changing into pants the same color as her skirt, Becky flew off after her family, Bob clinging to her back. T.J. looked out the window and saw his sister's figure flying over the family car. He noticed how odd it was that the shadow she cast looked exactly like a star. They drove back into the forest, following Star's light trail.
In front of them, Star was flying at top speed,which seemed to get slower every second. She was losing energy fast. She had to hurry to get back to her spaceship, and she could see Becky's light behind her. She knew she'd be followed, but that would be okay. It would be much easier to explain everything in her spaceship. She looked down and saw it sitting under the trees in the woods. It looked very similar to Wordgirl/Becky's, but the star was bordered by a light turquoise. She flew in through a hole that opened in the star in the front. Once inside she flew past dozens of light turquoise, red, and yellow doors. The hallways led to a large room. Instead of being filled with toys, like Wordgirl's control room, this had gym equipment and a large machine in the corner. Star flew over to the machine and opened a door in the front of the light turquoise tinted, transparent dome. She stepped in, holding onto the side to steady herself. She grabbed a handle hanging from the roof. She then stepped into the machine and closed the door. She held the other handle and a light began radiating from all around. At that very moment the Botsfords came in the room, Becky holding them while flying. As they got off, and Becky took off her new mask they spotted Star. Star looked at Becky and smiled,
"Hey sis, you found me."
she said. Becky was stunned. 'Sis'? What was going on?
