I hope that uncle Rockie won't flip out if he finds out, since I wanna be a hero when I grow up, just like my folks, alomg with my twin-sis, Celesta who's good now alomg with being a hero-in training.
It was a gew days after the first day back at school for Casey's friends, but right now, Casey was creating her own Hero-Watc page on her special power-proof cellphone which Rocket had made her, besides she saw Aunt Kamala and her friends using the app, plus Doreen had explained it to her, the last time she and Tippy had watched h unaware, that Ranger was there, hopimg he didn't find out what she was doimg, in case he told Rocket or her parents imagining their reactions.
"Whatcha you doing, kiddo, texting your friends?" he asked her makimg her anxious.
"Nothing, uncle Ranger, you should worry about, alright?" she replied.
She then saw her little sister, Terra scampering in, hugging her tail as like her, she didn't go to school because she had many powers just like Casey and gheir parents alomg with Celesta missing Dashi, Yama's little brother which Casey understood cuddling her makimg Ranger smirk at his nieces, knowing that Rocket would talk to Casey, after he and the others, alomg with Cassie and Monica makimg Casey frown.
"I'm gonna go for a little while, but I'll be back before uncle Rockie and the others are done, alright?" she said.
Terra nodded seeing her using her cloakimg-power to become invisible, sneakimg out of the compound, goimg to the arcade, for a while since she loved video-games along with having an Nintendo Switch, entering, putting a dollar in the machine, as tokensshot out into her paws, making her grin, playimg video-games, gigglimg as this was makimg her feel better.
"Let's hope that uncle Rockie doesn't finish training early again, but they leave me, to my own devices." she mumb.
Meanwhile at the compound, Celesta popped in from out, impressing Rocket, as he and the others were finishhsd with training, makimg him where Casey was, because he was about to tell her the surprise that he had planned, hearing Celesta ask, if she could help.
"Yes, go to the arcade using your teleporting-power, as she always goes there, or the comic-book store, she's been doimg this a lot recently, which worries me." he told her, makimg her understand, teleporting herself to the arcade, appearing outside, wondering why Casey would come here, seeing her little sis stunned, seeing her here.
"Uncle Rockie asked me, to brimg you back, come on." Celesta said teleporting them back to the compound, makimg Casey sigh, seeimg the now-teenaged Cassie and Monica, which Celesta understood, seeing her twin-sis perkimg p hearing her uncle say heand the others were home-training her and Terra, while their friends were at school.
"No more leaving the compound without saying, alright?" Rocket told Casey.
"Alright, uncle, besides you guys were training, and not let me do it." she replied, goimg to her room, makimg Cassie and Monica exchange a look, guessing them being older because of the blip, had made Casey sad because she couldn't do the cool thimgs they could now. making Celesta confused despite yawning, making Casey curious.
"Maybe you should take an nap, as you seem tired?" she said to her sister.
"Yeah, but I have wrestling practice, alomg with hero-training." Celesta replied.
Casey and Rocket exchanged a look, knowing Celesta needed an nap, like Terra did everyday, remembering how she, Ranger and Riley had made Rocket something comfy, when he overworked himself inventing, so was getting to work seeing her parents back from whatever they were doing, seeing Casey working on a project with her uncle, despite Celesta practicing her wrestling, because she had an important match on Conjunction, which she was pumped up for.
"We're workimg on something, to help Celesta relax, you know?" Casey told them.
"That's good, as she might need that, sweetie." Poppy said making her grin.
After calming down, Celesta was takimg a shower, but yawning, guessing she could take an nap, since she needed to recharge, going to her room, relieving Rocket along with Poppy and Soren, knowing how their elder kit was focused on her wrestlimg, besides hero-training, makimg Casey go to her room, playing Super Smash Bros on her Nintendo Switch, unaware that Rocket was there.
He knew his niece was havimg a tough time right now, knowing she would push through it, being more stronger in herself for it, hearing her talking while playing, lettimg her be, as maybe they could talk, once she was cAlmere, making Celesta wonder what was going on, hearing him say Casey was blowing off steam, makimg Poppy and Soren understand, seeing it was Terra's bedtime, goimg to tuck their youngest kit in.
Later that night/early morning, Casey had an idea, as the kids on Half-World were like her, deciding to go there using her uncle's space-stone o get there, hoping he wouldn't be upset, if he found out, disappearing in a flash, dropping the stone just as Rocket walked in, stunned seeing she was gone and the space-stone had been used, making him guess what had happened.
"I have to tell them, and Celesta, but where would she go?" he wondered to himself.
"Wait, Casey went somewhere, using your stone, and you don't know where?" Yama said, after showing up at the compound making Rocket and the others nod in reply, after realising that Casey had disappeared using the space-stone.
"She was upset about Cassie and Monica being older, so maybe she went somewhere, to make friends with kids her age, or our species." Celesta said makimg Rocket's eyes widen, guessing where she might've went makimg Ranger and Riley agree with him.
Meanwhile Casey was on Half-World, exploring the planet that her uncle called home, seeing a female sloth her age who was being bothered by bigger kids making her annoyed, using her powers, to scare thm off, surprising the sloth girl at Casey making her smile.
"I'm Casey, Rocket's niece, as I came here looking for frkendo, you know?" she old her.
"Wow, your uncle's Rocket, who's a Guardian of the Galaxy, and an Avenger." she said.
Casey nodded in reply, learning that her new friends's name was Hershey and shy, making Casey understand, as they were hanging out, not realising her uncle and family were lookimg for her, or worried sick about her, having fun.
"Are you gonna stay here, Casey?" Hershey asked.
"I don't know, Hershey, I'll think about it." Casey replied.
