Two years had passed since Shocket had came into Rocket's life and now she was three, he was letting her maybe start preschool since Thor's younger twin sons, Modi and Magni who were around Shocket's age were starting preschool in New Asgard so he figured it would not hurt, to let his little girl try especially as it was not Terran school knowing how the kids would treat her hearing something beeping, his cellphone not his Avengers pager, even though he and Shocket along with Lylla were living at the compound, hearing giggling along with footsteps.
He saw Shocket tackle-hug his leg, wondering what in the world was going on, seeing a pzzled look on her furry face, explaining something important was requiring him to go on an errand, telling her to go play with Modi, Magni andTerra until he got back, making her nod, unclench ing, leaving the room, making Rocket sigh, sincehe could make it up to her later, since he was bringing her a little sister which the others including Lylla knew, which Shocket didn't as Rocket wantedit to be a surprise.
"Did you ask your daddy, what did he say?" Terra asked her, when Shocket rejoined her, Modi and Magni in the indoor tree fort.
"He wasin a hurry, to go beat up bad guys, probably." Shocket replied seeing Modi grinning, as he and his twin-brother peered through the telescope, seeing their big sister, Thrud and their big-kid cousins up to something, that was probably major fun and something they were too little to help, making Shocket frown at that, because her cousin Casey who was Thruds's best friend would tell her, going down the slide of the fort, rushing over to where Casey was on all fours, like her dad.
"Areyou guys doing something super-cool, in case Modi and Magni prank Thrud?" she asked.
Being bigger, the adults had let Casey and her friends in on what Casey's uncle was doing along with the surprise party, making Casey sigh, because Shocket thought she was cool, guessing she could give her younger cousin a hint, so it would keep her guessing without ruining her uncle's surprise along with warning Thrud her brothers were up to something, because they along with Shocket and Terra were trying to figure out, why the adults were acting strange today.
"The surprise your dad is getting is for you, but that's all I can say, you'll find out soon." Casey said making Shocket okay with that, because she loved her dad's surprises like Thor's birthday so would just wait, to see b it was igniting her imagination, even though it would be naptime soon.
"It's alright, Rocky, we're almostthere, soon you'll get to meet your mommy along with your big sis, who will be surprised because she doesn't know yet, just go back to sleep, okay?" Rocket said softly to an infant brown-red furred and chubby infant kit that was on his lap while his ship wason auto-pilot to calm her down, because the turbelunce had awoken her from the peaceful slumber which he had lulled her into using music, after escaping The Collector because this little one had been cloned from him, like Shocket, only this one looked more like him.
This was the errand he had told Shocket he was doing, without actually revealing she was getting a little sister, in case she would flip out, compared to her joyous reaction to starting school in a few weeks relieved that Rocky had fallen asleep again while rentering Terran airspace landing and docking in the hangar of the Avengers compound, carrying Rocky gently in his furry arms, making the others impressed.
"Awww she's so cute, Shocket's gonna love her, you know?" Kamala said making him sigh, unaware Modi and Magni had seen and wanted to tell Shocket seeing their mom and dad stop them, explaining theiruncle wanted to introduce Shocket to her new sister after she woke up from her nap which was soon, making both Asgardian youngsters understand, hoping their cousin would be okay, with what her dad hadin store.
"Woah, you brought home another kit, why?" Shocket asked her dad confused, making Rocket face-Palm, seeimg her run off, seeing Casey going after her younger cousin, guessing she was surprised about her new sister, guessing her cle should have prepared her for this, finding her in her room, not wanting to come out, entering the room.
"I know this is a bit surprising, but your dad still loves you, along with Rocky, even if she looks like him, trust me." she said seeing her cousincalming down a little, talking and explaining, makimg Shocket feel better, seeing Casey frown, hearing soundsof an infant crying making Shocket impressed by that, asking if it was her sister seeing her nod.
"She's freaking out, because everything and everybody is new to her, so she needs help." Casey replied making Shocket's eyes widen going to her memory box, finding something that Thor and Sif had given her when she had been her sister's age making Casey impressed, knowing Rocky would need it right now, rejoining the party, making Rocket relieved, seeing Shocket putting a certain pacifier in Rocky's mouth, which was calming her.
"Awwww you gave her the paci, that Thor and Sif gave you, thank you as that is vdry sweet ofyou, because she got spooked by music so this will calm her because she took an nap, before we got back." he said making Shocket smirk seeing Linda there hugging her before going to play, making both Lylla and Rocket relieved, because they had been worried, about how Shocket would respond, so this was good.
"Yep, plus her first day of school is in a few weeks, so this is okay." Rocket said.
"Yep, which should be fun, and intresting for us, especially you." Lylla said to Rocket, making him nod, because he and Shocket were very close, which was why the idea of letting her go to school had been out of the question until now, besides Thor and Sif letting their kids go so was lettimg Shocket do this.
