Anya liked to watch Kaito, the space shark. He swam near the space station every day. Anya thought Kaito was a very special friend.
But one morning, Kaito swam very slowly. He did not do his happy flips. Anya saw a worried look on his shark face.
“Kaito looks sad,” Anya said to Bolt. “I want to help him.” Bolt the robot nodded his square head. He was ready for an adventure.
Anya and Bolt flew out to meet Kaito. Kaito used his silver communicator badge. A sparkly picture popped up! It showed glowing purple berries.
Kaito wiggled his tail fin. He missed his favorite treat. “We will find them!” Anya called. She knew just what to do.
Then, their special adventure started. Kaito led the way. They swam past a big, bright cloud of cosmic colors. It was a beautiful nebula!
Next, they went through a field of sparkling rocks. The asteroids glittered like tiny stars. Bolt used his tools to help them go safe.
They came to a quiet place in space. Kaito swam around and around. He looked worried once more.
“Look, Kaito!” Anya called out. She pointed her small hand. Something far away was shining. It looked like many little purple lights.
They swam closer to find a beautiful star-berry bush! Kaito wiggled his tail with so much joy. Anya and Bolt used their stardust scoop to gather his favorite glimmering star-berries.
The end.
