As the morning sun rose, the Rainbow Friends were fast asleep in Blue's castle. Unbeknownst to the group, a small blue orb entered the castle; they opened their big, beady eyes and looked around.

Soon after, the blue creature spotted the group lying on the ground; they chirped before rolling toward them. When the blue creature looked at the group, they spotted Ruby; they got close to her head and sniffed her.

The blue creature was happy before getting on Ruby's chest and letting out soft purrs. Ruby winced a bit before opening her eyes; she looked down and saw the blue creature, surprising her, "Uh... hello, little one..." she whispered.

Ruby held her hand out to the small creature, making them look at it; they lay on her hand and purred. Ruby smiled a bit as she petted the blue creature. Blue slowly opened his right eye and yawned; he looked at the group and noticed the blue creature on Ruby's chest.

Blue was surprised and stood up; Ruby glanced at him, "Good morning, Blue." she whispered, "I guess this little creature came into your castle while we were asleep."

Blue nodded, "It's a Looky; Red is usually the one taking care of these little guys." he whispered, "I guess this one escaped without him realizing it." Blue walked toward Ruby, "I'll take them back to Red." he continued before reaching for the Looky.

The Looky looked at Blue's hand before hopping away, shocking the duo. The Looky hit Orange, making him yelp; when Blue was close, they rolled on Green, waking him up. Green sat up as the Looky landed next to Purple, "What's going on?" he asked.

Orange got up and glared at the Looky, "That damn Looky woke me up from my nap." he said before leaping toward it. The Looky hopped away before Orange landed, hitting Purple in the process.

The Looky landed on Cyan, waking her up; as she sat up, they rolled down and landed on Yellow, waking him up. When Blue reached for the Looky, they hopped away, making him grab Yellow instead, "Whoops, sorry." he said before placing him down.

When Ruby sat up, the Looky hopped in her arms and snuggled against her. Purple looked at the Looky as they purred, "I don't think I've seen a Looky get so close to a new Rainbow Friend before..." they said lowly.

Cyan nodded, "Yeah... it took a while for these little guys to get used to me." she said. Yellow looked at Cyan, "That's because you wanted to play with them, and in their eyes, it's like a dinosaur charging toward them." he said.

Cyan pouted a bit and turned away, "It's not my fault they look playful." she said. Ruby stood up with the Looky in her arms, "Isn't Red worried that this little guy escaped?" she asked.

Orange crossed his arms, "There's too many of these little shits that even he probably didn't realize it ran away." he said. Ruby looked at Orange, surprised, "Wait, there's more than one Looky?" she asked.

Green nodded, "At first, there was one larger Looky, but then they kept multiplying." he said. Ruby nodded, "I see..." she said before walking toward the door, "Well, I say let's get them back to Red as soon as possible." The others nodded as they followed Ruby.

At the plaza, Red stood before a stall filled with a variety of Lookies and writing on his clipboard. Red sighed, "This is not good; what to do?" he asked himself.

"Red!" Red turned to the back and saw the Rainbow Friends. Ruby held out the blue Looky, "This little guy somehow escaped and wound up at Blue's castle." she said.

Red hummed before walking toward Ruby and grabbing the Looky, making her let go, "Thank you for finding this one." he said before walking toward the stall. Ruby looked in the stall as Red placed the Looky in it, "Wow... there's so much variety in these Lookies." she said.
