Crystal's eyes glowed with her magic, transforming into her favourite form, a magenta-furred raccoon girl, impressing Kaley, making Crystal smile at hercousin explaining that her friend, Cherry had taught herandCasey a transformation spell , so Crystal loveddoing this afterfeelingstressedabout heruncle'snews which made Kaley happy asking where Casey was, hearing shewas at school too for kids that had super-powers.
"She'sdoing okay with heranxiety andpanicking, her parentsandRocketare teaching her tricks, to help her like us."

"Deadly isgoing overdecrees, andSisou ispreparingfor herfirst day." Dudley said.
"Ohhhhhh, okay then, I hope they eat." Crystal said to her uncle.
After eating, Crystal wasin her room listening to musicon her headphones whiledoingart, hopingCasey washaving a good day at school, that she was keepingcalm, nothaving panic-attacks or meltdowns, knowing Casey'sparents had taught her coping mechanisms, as long as Shocketdidn't setoff thefire akarma, checkingthe time on her phone, seeing Casey homelooking freaked-out making herwonder whatwaswrong.
"S-Shocket set off thefire alarms, using her fire-breath, meaning a fire-drill." Casey saidsmiffling.
Crystal was gently scratchingbehind Casey'sfurry ears, knowing that helpedcalmherdown, finding herfriends'snoise-cancelling headphones onto Casey'sears activating her Mp3 player, which was helping the raccoon girl relaxing, feeling sleepy, lyingon Crystal's bed makingthe magenta-furred girl smile, leaving her room.
"We should save some forCasey, she's taking an nap." Crystal told her family as they sat down at the table, making them wonder what had happened to makeCasey miss dinner, hearing she had a freak-out making Xeadly understand.
""Of course we can, that was a good idea to help her." he told her.
"Is she alright, after whathappened?" Kaley asked softly.
"Yeah, she fell asleep on my bed after she calmed down." Crystal answered.
"You feeling better, after earlier, does your uncle know that Shocket does that?" Kaley askedCasey.
"Yeah I am, yes he knows thatShocketdoes that, andthat it sets me off." Casey told her.
It was later that early evening in the castle, andCrystal, Casey andKaleywere in thesecret fort after dinner, hanging-out as Casey hadfinished her homework making Crystal smile, that her friendgot good grades guessing her nap had helpedher feel better afterfreaking-out thanks to Shocket settingoff fire-alarms making her wonder, why Crystal wasso quiet.
"She'sstarting at the school in the Goblin City, it's making her anxious." Kaley said to her.
" Awwww, I get it but she'll do great, she'sawesome like in magic lessons with heruncle Dugli." Casey told her.
That made Crystal smile a little at herfriends'swords, hoping that her first day at her new school wouldgo okay, wondering if her uncle Dugli knew about this along withher mom, Raven guessing they must have, if Deadly had enrolled her feeling Caseyhug her, whichmade her feel better.
"Thanks sis, that helps like earlier, when you were scared."she saidsoftly to her.
They could hear Chilli calling for them to get ready for bed, makig Casey yawn, rubbing her eyes with her paw, which Crystal andKaley found cute, seeing her leaving the secretfort along with Crystal andKaley, changing into pyjamas, eeing warm milk andcookies to help them get sleepy, knowing that Casey hated sleeping alone, unless shehad her stuffedChinese dragon, orunless she slept on Crystal'sbed as it was a school-night for Casey.
"I hopetomorrow isa betterday forher, sinceshegot freaked-out." Crystal murmured.
She was listening to music on her headphones while on her bed, stroking the tail of herRocket plushgently thatshesleptwith asshedidn't sleep alonejust like Casey, which the others knew, like Kaley withFerdy andJessicawith Daisy.
