"Come on Casey, pick up, pick up as Herbie isn't mad at us plus I just got back from being out with Herbie and Star-Rocket, yohr brain didn't get fried by Grootspace." RJ muttered to himself. It was late night on Wondergore and while Herbert and Star-Rocket were sleeping, RJ was still up and waiting for Casey to respond.

RJ I'm okay, just resting after getting here, he's okay, they're okay the transmissions were wrong and foubd Branchie who's taking care of me and starting to change in a goid way.

"Oh thank Groot as I was worrying about you even though Herbie was okay with what we did, what do you mean by changing." RJ said confused.

Because of the connecting to Groot thing, Branchie said I'm becoming part-Groot which is awesome.

He heard the transmission stop for now, seeing it was three in the morning where he decided to get into bed zoning out. Herbert was relieved checking on him, hearing Casey talking had calmed RJ down which relieved him kissing his furry head leaving his room heading back to his room.

"She's okay with Rocket plus she's starting to change." he mumured getting a bottle ready for Star-Rocket in case he was hungry during the night.


The next morning on Planet Groot, Casey began to stir in Branchie's house smelling breakfast sitting up gently still feeling strange and her tummy growled with hunger walking out of the room into the kitchen seeing Branchie up. " Groot Morning Casey and good you're up. I was worried about you but you'll be okay and maybe the Groot blood will boost your powers, ohhh yeah your're gonna be an empath of the highest order like your brother and his friends." Branchie told her pouring milk into a glass for her.

"Thanks Branchie, I think I can manage it, but guess it's hard for my hrother." Casey told her.

"That's good honey, maybe you should call yourself Grootcoon Girl, but you okay and guess you're hungry plus you're still recovering from flying all the way here, yes I heard the transmissions, but who were you talking to." Branchie said to her sitting down at the table with her. "Ohhhhh that was my cuz RJ as he like me was worried about Rockie from the transmissions, people like Carol heard from." Casey told her sipping milk but eating pancakes

"Ohhhhhh cool, maybe he can cone here, Casey as I'd like to meet him." Branchie said. "I don't think he's in the mood to visit but I can tell him about you." Casey told her seeing Branchie grin, seeing her fur and hair was slowky turning green just like Rocket and the Guardians and hoping for her branches to come knowing that change might be painful
