The Galactic Rock Collectors 1: Tony's New Friend

The spaceship Blue Dragon zoomed around a star. It stopped at a large, spinning spacestation.

The ship’s door opened. Inside, Tony stood next to his mother, Captain Ramirez.

Tony stared out the door. He was excited because another boy was coming to live on the ship. He hoped they could be friends.

“Where is he?” Tony asked. He tugged on the sleeve of his mom's uniform.

“Be patient,” his mother said. “There he is now. His name is Toxu.”

A man and his son walked up the ramp to the ship. They had green skin. Their arms and legs had suction cups, like an octopus. The son held a box to his chest. He looked scared.
