"Ummm guys, thank you. I know you were sleeping with me and sorry if I scared you." Shocket told her friends drinking soda, which her dad had given her knowing she still looked exhausted which he got being tired too. It was later that afternoon and the Young Guardians had woken up after their impromptu nap noticing Shocket looked grateful yet tired which Byrdie, Casey, Emily andcRocke noticed so understood Shocket was still sleepy like typical Terran raccoons rubbing her eyes with her paw which Byrdie and Rocke found adorable. "You're welcome Shocket and but why're you tired. You're not having bad dreams right." Rocke asked softly.
"Not really nightmares guys. My brain gets really active and then I have to do stuff like inventing but loved we had a group nap." Shocket told him yawning which Byrdie found adorable like everything Shocket did making them smirk as Rocket was listening knowing he was like this but tired guessing he needed to teach his baby girl to sleep better guessing her friends who were also her Young Guardians team mates could help as he and the other heroes, along with the Young Avengers gave them challenges or things to think about so this was a good idea and this would help with their mental health, since after everything involving Doom mental health was a big topic so this could help them if they had sleeping issues.
"You have a challenge for us, what is it. Are we going to the WWEB labs." Shocket asked excited despite being tired.
"Sorry honey it doesn't involve WWEB and besides, you're too sleepy for that right now. The challenge is aboht sleeping as sleep helps with our mental health which is a big deal right now especially with kids like you so we're challenging or asking you, to come up with ways to help with sleeping or help friends settle down for sleeping." Rocket told them looking at Shocket gently seeing her zone out hearing Casey asking, if this involved Shocket's not sleeping making him nod scooping Shocket up taking her to her room making the Young Guardians exchange a look.
"Let's put our heads together like we always do. Even if our leader isn't here but this challenge involves her. It came from her dad so let's think." Casey heard Rocke say noticing he was talking a lot which was rare for him ashe was normally quiet unless he had something to say guessing like them, he was converned for Shocket like them unaware RJ was there and had been listening. "I mightn't be on your team but I have an idea. Plants like lavender can help relax others to help with sleeping issues." he said making them impressed asking him why he was helping. "You're welcome as I hate when Shocket is in zombcoon mode like our pops." RJ told them going on his way
"Why do you think he gave us that suggestion. He normally gets in our fur." Rocke asked.
"No idea. Let's go to the greenhouses." Casey said to them. They went to the greenhouses and foubd lavender asking aGroot, if it was okay as it was forcShocket making him nod knowing Shocket was tired along withRocket looked exhausted seeing the kids leaving the greenhouses.
Rocket was tucking Shocket into her bed in her room, but sensed dark energy, nightmare dust getting it was the cause of Shocket's restlessness and nightmares growling. His baby girl had been through enough after Doom had messed up Earth including the Secret Wars so adding nightmares maxe it worse using a dreamcatcher putting it on her door so bad dreams wouldn't bother her guessing the kids were working on the challenge he'd given them leaving Shocket be seeing Rocke there with lavender in a flowerpot.
"It's for Shocket. It's related to the challenge you gave us. RJ suggested the lavender." Rocke said makigvRocket smile.
"She'll love that. She's sleeping so don't wake her." Rocket told him seeing him nod. He entered Shocket's room hearing those gentle snores putting the pot on the desk kissing her head.
