A/N: Please read the author's note at the end AFTER you read this... It may spoil a few things. ;) (I'm only saying this because I've spoken to people who read the Author's Note first...)

And this has not been edited yet, so bare with me... Oh and this is my first ROTOQ story (and Shocky story, for that matter), so please be nice!

Sonny was practically bouncing with excitement… Not that he was going to show it. No, no body could know that the king of Transylvania was excited to see his mother. That was just embarrassing. But it was true. He had not seen Janet for a year now, and General Riff Raff (who was also a bit like a "royal advisor", really) had finally decided to let him go to earth.

But the safest trip was also the longest, and Sonny and Riff Raff would be stuck in the stupid travel pod for the next two days. Sonny was sure the only reason he had even survived was the fact that he would be seeing his mother soon.

It was morning, but seeing as they were in the middle of space it was impossible to tell unless you had a watch (which, of course, the king did). Sonny had made himself coffee, and he was not sure where Riff Raff had gone off to. The pod was tiny, and yet Sonny very rarely saw Riff. Strange.

Sonny shrugged, deciding there were better things to do that wonder where the cranky general was. So, sipping his coffee again, the young king got up and walked over to the computer. The internet access was slow, but at least it worked. Logging onto the internet, Sonny read his emails. All junk. It figures, thought Sonny, you're the king of the planet and all anybody bothers to send you is garbage.

Sighing, Sonny stood up once more and walked into the living room. He picked up a book from the coffee table (a terribly written romance novel) and began flipping through the pages. He got to the end, read it over a few times, and shrugged, deciding this book would be worth reading (Sonny rarely read books without knowing the ending first).

About two hours later, Sonny had finished the book and was bored again. He was about to go find a snack when General Riff Raff walked in. He gave Sonny a strange look, read the title of the book he held in his hands ("Violets are Blue"), and walked into the kitchen. Sonny stood up and followed him.

"Hey Riff,"

"Don't call me Riff," snapped Riff Raff as he made himself some coffee like Sonny had a few hours ago.

"Yeah, whatever." Sonny shrugged, ignoring Riff Raff's request. "Hey, how much longer until we'll get to earth, huh?" He looked at Riff Raff eagerly. The general looked at the king. For a moment, Sonny thought Riff Raff just was not going to respond.

Finally, Riff Raff replied with, "Another day or two."

"What?" snapped Sonny, kicking a cabinet and leaving a small dent. Riff Raff sighed, knowing he was going to be the one blamed for that. "But… But I want to get to earth now!" Sonny whined in a way that sounded like a moody teenager – which he was.

Riff Raff ignored the king completely this time. He simply picked up his coffee, gave Sonny one last strange look, and walked out again. Once more he seemed to completely disappear. Sonny continued to stare at where Riff had been standing for a few more moments, before sighing and walking over to the refrigerator, where he found very little food. Angrily slamming the door, the king stomped out of the kitchen and back to the living room, where he got onto the couch and just lay there on his stomach complaining to himself for another hour.

It was finally dinner time. Not that he was excited for dinner. No, he was just excited to know that the day would almost be over: then only one more day until he was one earth.

They would be having some old canned soup tonight. Neither Sonny or Riff Raff were too happy about this idea. Knowing that the lousy meal would just make their tempers worse, the two silently agreed on not sitting near each other at dinner. Instead, Riff Raff went to the living room where he read a book (a much better one than "Violets are Blue"). Sonny simply sat in front of the computer as he ate.

"Hey Riff?"

Riff Raff decided it was not worth his time to correct the king again (he absolutely hated being called "Riff" by anyone but Magenta… who had died two years ago), so he simply said, "What do you want?" He absentmindedly flipped through another page in his book.

"Mom wants to know how many more hours…"

General Riff Raff was still surprised to hear the king refer to Janet as "mom". It was so strange to imagine that naive, innocent woman he had met during the Annual Transylvanian Convention could ever be the mother of this… boy.

"Tell Janet that we're probably another thirty-one hours away."

Sonny moaned in frustration as he began typing back a response, wanting nothing more than to get out of this pod and get to earth. He hated the idea of being here for another thirty-one hours.

The next morning, Sonny awoke with his back hurting terribly. He had to sleep on the couch – it was much comfier than the floor, where Riff Raff was, but it was still a pain. Stretching, the young king got off the couch and walked towards the kitchen, only to trip on a pillow and fall on his face. Muttering curses under his breath, Sonny stomped into the bathroom.

Immediately the boy put on as much makeup as he could. Just looking at himself without makeup made him shudder a bit.

"You know, your father always were makeup." Riff Raff said from behind Sonny, his voice cold, as if even thinking about Frank-N-Furter was hard.

Sonny did not hear the hatred in Riff's voice. Instead, he nodded energetically as he brushed his brown-black hair. "Yeah, I've seen the movie. He always wears makeup!" Sonny grinned. "It's so cool!"

"What is?"

"That I'm his son. I mean, seriously. He's famous – They even made a movie about him! And his personality…" Sonny paused, sighing in awe. "He was so bold and… wow…"

Riff Raff growled under his breath. If he had to describe the now long-dead transvestite, "bold" and "wow" were not the words he would have chosen. However, he knew better than to upset the king, so he just nodded and walked away.

A three AM the next morning, Sonny was awoken. Opening his eyes and yawning, he looked and saw Riff Raff.

"What's happening…?" asked Sonny, yawning.

"We'll be on earth in ten minutes." Riff Raff replied tersely. Sonny immediately jumped up and ran into the bathroom to get ready.

A/N If you're confused, go read Revenge of the Old Queen and try again later! ;) =P

Anyway, just a quick prologue. After reading ROTOQ, I assumed that Riff would be more of an advisor than a general, even though that's what the script says he is.

And remember, in ROTOQ, there was a movie called "The Rocky Horror Show"… based on real events. So that explains the "the even made a movie about him!" bit.

And I hope I got Sonny in character! D:

Shock Treatment-related stuff doesn't happen until chapter 3, BTW =3

Oh, and one more thing! In, like, the second paragraph, I said that Riff wanted Sonny to use the safest way to get to Earth. I think that – in his own Riff-Raff-way – he kind of cares for Sonny. Plus he would hate to see another Furter killed because of him. :P So… yeah… ;)

Wow, this author's note is getting kinda long. But… um… I rarely read books without knowing the ending (I usually look it up online), and I can see Sonny doing the same thing. He doesn't exactly seem like he would want a bunch drama… even in the books he reads. :P And "Violets are Blue" is a completely made up name. I thought it was pretty funny XD

Another thing: I can't begin tell you how hard it is to combine Shocky and ROTOQ, and still make it make sense. I've encountered multiple problems: Is it Janet WEISS or Janet MAJORS? Is Brad's brother STEVE or FARLEY? How long ago was Shocky? Where was Sonny? Did Brad die the same way he did in ROTOQ, or what?

Yeah… wish me luck…
