"Cannonball," Raya yelled, diving into the pool in the Avengers Campus grounds.

"Hehehe this is one awesome way to cool off on a hot summer night, especially after saving your fellow raccoons and humans, plus uncle Rockie's with Lylla and Shocket's with Linda, my mom's sleeping in the living-room, nothing can stop us." Casey declared grinning while in the pool.

It was a hot balmy summer night and being covered in thich soft fur was good at Winter but not so much during Summer so Casey, Peach and Raya were having fun in the pool swimming, doing cannonballs and goofing around plus Peach thought it good to play chicken making Casey grin, she had seen some of the adults play this.

"Wait, maybe this isn't a good idea, one of us has super-strength and if she gets carried away-" Raya pointed oht hearing Peach snort in reply.

"Casey's our bestie and our sis, she won't do that." Peach said.

"I-I am, b-but w-we're different." Casey said, her cheeks going pink.

"You are, you're like the coolest kit we've ever met." Raya replied.

"Aww arigatou guys, I think you're awesome too, let's play," Casey yelled splashing.

She and Peach climbed onto the pool noodle pushing each other, play-fighting but Casey was being gentle so her super-strength power wouldn't hurt them or break bones unaware Shocket was watching them, in awe of this.

"Does my dad know about this, probably not." she muttered.

She was secretly recording or livestreaming Casey, Peach and Raya being dorks a little jealous that Casey had not just Crystal and Kaley, but now she had two best raccoon friends which made her mad.

"Hello Internet, moreso dad's ohone." Shocket said softly sending it to her dad's phone.

"Wait is that your cousin in the bushes, what is she doing." Raya asked.

"No idea but ignore her, my mom lets us hang out." Casey replied face-palming hearing splashing as Shocket had pushed Peach into the pool annoying her, diving in helping her, doing CPR like her uncle had taught them in Avengers Scouts.

"You okay and sorry, that my cuz did that." she told Peach.

She, Casey and Raya stood together squeezing each other's paws gently but Casey activated her flying power just as Rocket came out, trying to get their attention but Casey ignored it flying into the forest area of Avengers Campus where
each and Raya's home was.

"Thank you for helping us, but you okay." Peach asked Casey.

"You're welcome, it's worth getting in trouble for." she replied.

Peach and Raya hugged her, asking her if she wanted to sleep over seeing her nodding as she knew her uncle was probably mad at her yet she didn't care as Peach and Raya were her friends, wiping tears from her eyes with a paw.

"I-I'm okay guys, my mom is probably explaining to my uncle about you guys." she told them.

"Casey you out there, it's okay sweetie." she heard Pupia call out.

"Maybe you're right, go talk to her alright." Raya told her.

Casey hugged them before going to meet her mom, seeing Pupia hug her, saying everything was alright, and was mad at Shocket plus she wanted Peach and Raya to come too making her anxious.

"They're not in trouble, you're not going to kick them out." she asked anxious.

"No sweetie, we know what happened to them, please go get them." Pupia told her.

"We're here Ms Pupia, we didn't want Casey to get into trouble, because of us." Peach said.

"Ssh everything will be okay, just come inside." Pupia reassured them.

"Thanks for letting us stay, Ms Pupia." Raya told Pupia seeing Peach nod.

"Don't worry about it girls, I'm just glad you and Casey are safe." Pupia replied.

It was now early morning and Casey, Peach and Raya were in Casey's room snuggling on Casey's big bed after coming inside the compound and talking, so all three youngsters were tired after the night's adventures only Casey was angry at Shocket, which Rocket understood knowing his niece needed friends of her species, not just Crystal who was Casey's magical friend.

"I think your mom is about to have your brother or sister judging from her belly." Peach told Casey seeing Pupia smirk saying their brother or sister surprising Peach and Raya making Casey grin, hearing her mom say she was adopting them.

"S-Seriously, even if we're you know." Raya asked her.

"It doesn't matter that you're runts, you guys and Casey are true friends and now sisters and can help with her." Pupia told them seeing Peach and Raya hug her gently along with Casey.
