"Rockie you okay, you don't seem yourself." Piper told Rock-E.

It was the next day after Rockford had brought his sweet red-panda girl, Kiki home plus he knew Rocket was looking after Lil O, Oreo's great-grand kit today so was deciding to try and let Kiki make a friend in Lil O, so was feeding her milk plus he was tired after being up all night with Kiki until he heard Rocket's Guardians comm going off, knowing he couldn't go because he was watching Lil O, asking Rockford if he wanted to go in his place seeing Rockford in his samurai-style Guardians armour making Rocket chuckle.

"Go have some fun, we've got Kiki plus we'll help her with Lil O." he told him.

"Arigatou Rocket, give her an nose-kiss for me." Rockford told him leaving.

Rocket smiled seeing the others awake plus Rock-E was calming Kiki as she was upset singing Beatles songs to her which was calming her despite the fact he was not feeling too good, hearing her giggle at his sneezes making Piper worried along with Rocket asking if he was okay seeing the tenuki male nod.

"Okay but lie down after breakfast, it'll help." Rocket told him.

"Wait where's Rockford, is that why Kiki was upset." Casey asked.

"He went on a mission, but he'll be back in a while." Rocket replied.

After breakfast, the other Rockets were going about their day, plus the kits were heading for school but Rocket was distracting Kiki so she wouldn't get upset telling her she'd get to make a friend later making her curious but quiet as Rocket put her in the play-den helping Piper with a certain dosed up friend.

"Rockie Nirohita your health comes first before anything, I'm the band manager and your soulmate, you work so hard you deserve to take a break." Piper told Rock-E seeing him frown, sighing in defear following her to his room, letting her tuck him into his side of their bed which felt nice despite being stuffed up and having a sore throat so would get him meds to kick this cold's tail.

"You have to rest starshine to kick that cold's tail, I'll tell the rest of the band what's happening plus Groot will be worried about you." Piper told him.

"Alright, Pipes but I hope the rest of our family are okay " he told them.

"They are, but Rockford went on a Guardians mission, Kiki's in the play-den, the kits went to school but the others are goig about their day." Rocket told him.

A little while later, Rockford returned feeling good after helping others paw-bumping Rocket asking if Kiki was alright seeing him nod, tellijg him she was in the play-den relieving him checking on her, seeing the red-panda female infant calm and keeping to herself which relieved the bearded tenuki male but worried him, she kept to herself hoping she'd befriend Lil O when she came over later.

"Yeah, I have to go get her soon, don't worry Rockford, if she doesn't befriend Lil O." Rocket reassured him maki him tea which he gratefully took.

"Hai, you have a point, but she'll be okay." Rockford said.

Rocket left for Daisy's house to go get Lil O, as she had to go do errands seeing Lil O climbing impressing him, knowing she would do this at the compound seeing she'd escaped her play-pen chuckling seeing her happy seeing him but Daisy worried seeing Lil O had escaped getting her down before she got hurt hearing chitters from the female-infant.

"Awww it's okay honey, your mommy did it all the time in the lab, when she and me were your age, plus you'll get to make an new friend in Kiki, Rockford's cub." he told Lil O who was in his furry arms, seeing a worried look on Daisy's face at his words even though she had agreed with Rocket about telling Lil O about Oreo, it was only fair as she'd get curious as she grew up.

"Thanks as I can't take her, she'd sneak out of the grocery-cart the second she sees the bakery or the toy section." Daisy told him.

"Hmmm, maybe we should teach her that she can't sneak away to whatever catches her beady lil eyes." Rocket told her.


Kiki was playing happily in the play-den with toys her cousins had given her like blocks, cars among other things hearing Rocket back with Lil O seeing her uncle putting the infant raccoon kit in the play-den making Kiki scared that this was somebody new, whimpering which Rockford understood.

"It's okay, my lil furbaby as Lil O isn't scary, she's a cub just like you, you'll like her if you give her a chance." he told her noticing her nervous expression on her furry face.

"Yeah, I just wanna be your friend like uncle Rocket told me." Lil O replied.

"O-Okay I guess." Kiki replied while they were playing.
