"Are you ready for school, RJ buddy." Rocket told RJ a few days later, hearing knocking on the door as Nebula opened it seeing Rocke with a male-kit wearing a beret with a peace sign pin on it, and rose-pink shades like his dad but was quiet making RJ understanding, hugging the tenuki-kit who was wearing a Beatles-themed backpack enjoying the hug.

"Konnchiwa I'm Rockai Nirohita and scared about school, even though my dad said it would be okay but not sure." Rockai told him.

"He might be right about pre-school, plus the teacher's nice trust me." RJ told him.

Rockai was playing with RJ giggling which made Nebula, Rocket and Rocket Senior exchanged grins as it was time to go making Rockai's tummy fill with butterflies following RJ and Rocket Senior out the door after grabbing his Beatles backpack but hid behind Rocket Senior's back as Astro, his sibs, Teefs abd Floor were curious about him, they'd never seen somebody like him before which made Rockai more nervous which RocketvSenior sensed.

"It's okay Rockai, everybody is friendky here, you'll love it here." he reassured the tenuki-kit seeing him cone out.

"This is ohr newest addition, Rockai and it's his first day so make him feel welcome." Rocket Senior told them seeing the other kids nodding but Astro wasn't sure, crossing his furry arms as it was time to come to the rug as Rockai sat beside RJ which Rocket Senior thought sweet.

But at lunchtime, Rockai was having sushi, which RJ, Teefs andFloor thought cool, but Astro was making fun saying it was stinky seeing Teefs, Floor and RJ frowning at the male star-kit

"That's nit funny Astro, my cousin, Casey and Rockai's big sis, Yoko eats it a lot." RJ told him.

"That's true RJ, my sis does eat sushi, plus my daddy made my lunch for me, and packed my snacks." Rockai told them and shared his chocolate rice-balls which Floor, RJ and Teefs enjoyed thanking Rockai seeing him grin but Astromswiped the rice-balls from Rockai's paw popping them into his mouth

"Astro you're not being nice to Rockai, he's new to our class." Teefs said glaring making the malecstar-kit gulp.

"He's weird and wears those funny glasses, plus he's not brave." Astro told them.

Rocket Senior had seen this and surprised that Astro was acting like this to Rockai seeing it was outside time but Astro tripped Rockai which stunned the others seeing RJ hug the male tenuki-kit which annoyed Astro declaring that if anybody played with Rockai, they couldn't be his friends which stunned RJ not knowing what tomdo seeing Teefs and Floor join Rockai with RJ making the male tenuki'-kit feel better seeing Rocket Senior wonder what was happening as they were going inside getting ready for rest tine noticibg nobody was near Rockai,exceot for RJ sensing what might be happening and would ask him at home.


At dinner that night, Nebula, Rocket and Rocket Senior noticed that RJ was quiet while eating, making them wonder what was on his mind asking what was on his mind, as he told them what had happened at school telling how Astro had been mean to Rockai including what he'd told the others kids makingvthem astounded.

"That's why the other kids except for you, Teefs and Floor were being weird." Rocket Senior told him.

"Uh-huh, Rockai is really fun but shy and a great friend, and hope Grandpa Herbie knows what he did." RJ .

"Uh-oh I just gotva test from Rocke and he's not happy aboht what happened, we should go talk to him, RJ you come too." Rocket said as they left arriving at Rocke and Piper's large house and saw Rocke hugging them saying Rockai was in his room seeing RJ go upstairs entering Rockai's room, seeing cool toys, musical instruments plus had boomcases full of books plus had a bean bag chair noticing a pillow cave guessing his new pal was in there.

"Hey RJ I made this pillow-fort to feel better aftercAstro." Rockai told him.

"I get it as he did that when Floor first came to school, he made fun of her antennaes and asked, if she gotvradio through them and used her jaw to open soda cans for him, he tried to make fun of Teefs but he didn't let him plus he made fun of me." he told him.

"Really, what did he say." he asked him.

"He called me a runt and I told mybdad so he told my grahdpa Herbert who'scAstro's dad and he stopped." RJ said making Rockai feel better hugging him.
