"Ummmm, what was that." RJ asked as he and Star-Rocket were hanging our. It was a few weeks later after they'd visited Wondergore and Herbert had set up a playdate for RJ and Star-Rocket as they'd hit it off but were playing with Legos until alarms had went off, making Star-Rocket whimpering knowing what the alarms meant, something was putting Wondergore in danger.

Safety alert, safety alert, Wondergorians head to the safety-chambers and stay there, until further notice.

"Come on you two, get to the safety-chamber with the rest of us." Rocket said to them scooping them up rushing to the safety-chamber in the apartment closing the doir seeing RJ notice his grandpa and Star-Rocket's sibs were there wondering what was happening asking if this was normal.

"No buddy, a metor storm is raging outside and hitting Wondergore so everybody has to be safe-" Herbert told him seeing the power out hearing Star-Rocket whimpering but glowing like the stars in the night sky which impressed RJ hugging him sensing his cousin was scared of the dark.

"Go away darkness, go away dark ess go away, go away, starshine forever, starshine forever, come out and play, out and play." Star-Rocket sang softly to himself which RJ found sweet guessing it helped him stay calm as Herbert explained to him, that Star-Rocket was a bit afraid of the dark compared to the other star-kits which RJ understood but was comforting him.

"Everything's gonna be okay, maybe we can come out of here soon." he reassured him.

"… I hopeies RJ." he replied as they heard it was safe to leave the safety-chambers relieving them, and were coming out but Herbert along with Rocket Senior were going to checj on things telling Rocket to stay with the kits until they returned, so he decided to get snacks as that might settle everybody's anxiety pouring chocolate-milk into cups for them finding cookies which Herbert had maxe for the play date entering the living-room seeing the other star-kits playing only Star-Rocket was quiet making RJ understanding.

"It's okay to be scared of the dark, I'm like that too, right daddy." RJ said seeing Rocket nodding.

"Yep as you sleep with an nightlight and his favourite stuffie, so mayve you could do that too or glow in the dark like in the safety-chamber." Rocket said. Star-Rocket was very quiet just thinking aboht his uncle's words hoping it might work biting into a cookie and sipping chocolate-milk as his dad was teaching him and his sibs manners which Rocket understood being the crown prince himself, knowing his nephew had paid attention to the lessons.

"That sounds likeca good idea, thanks uncle, as maybe my daddy can help later but hope he's okay." he replied softly seeingRJ understanding seeing both Herbert and Grandpa Marshmallow returning from checking on things seeing the star-kits hugging them, noticing Star-Rocket quiet sensing something bothered him.

"I'll tell you later, daddy, when things are less nuts." he mumbled

"We should get going bubbelah, as yohr mom might worry, if we're not home." Rocket told RJ.

The male-kit then hugged his favourite cousin before leaving with his dad and Grandpa Marshmallow after he'd hugged Herbert going to the hangar-bay where Rocket's ship was. They then got in, buckled in and blasted off from Wondergore as RJ waved goodbye before sitting back in his seat hoping Star-Rocket would be alright and tell his dad how he was feeling about the dark.

"He will, kiddo as King Grandpa will figure it out, then help him." Rocket Senior assured him.

"I hope so, as he freaked out in the safety-chamber during the metor storm." Rocket told him.


noticed that RJ was quiet during dinner as she wondered what had happened during his play date with Star-Rocket and he was telling her what had happened including the metor-storm and Star-Rocket freaking out because of the darkness which she got knowing RJ and his sibs also didn't like the dark either. "Yep, RJ was being sweet to him which my dad understood well king dad." Rocket told her.

"That's good as he and Star-Rocket are pretty good friends and cousins." she told him.

"Yeah and hope he tells Grabdpa Herbert how he's feeling about the dark." RJ said later at bedtime.

"He probably has, and King grabdpa's already solving the problem." Rocket told him.
