Madness in Playtime Co.

A Tight Squeeze

Lucy looked around the area and poked her head at the inactive machinery, before turning around at another metal stairway. She walks toward the stairs followed by Sari and Bumblebee, as the trio started climbing the stairs in 4 turns until they reached the top.

Sari then spotted a pink colored VCR near the corner, with a TV hanging right above it, "Huh, guys look! There's another VHS player." Sari shouted out.

"Geez, how many of these things do they need here?" Bumblebee asked.

They turned around to get to the metal bridge, but Lucy stopped in the middle of the way.

"Ahh!" She screamed as she saw the metal bridge isn't connected to the middle of the catwalks. She nearly dragged Sari along with her to their death, that is until  Bumblebee quickly grabbed them by the hem of their shirt.

Lucy, Sari, and Bumblebee looked down to see how far it was to the ground floor, before Star Tracker shoot the blue hand at the other part of the bridge and dragged it over to the metal panel the trio's were standing on, connecting it.

"Thanks for the hand, Tracie." Lucy carried on in searching for a pink colored VHS tape. She looked down and on the wall below lays a pink, dirty tape. This is the VHS tape she's been looking for. "How did you get over there?" She said in confusion as she summoned her vector and use it to grab the VHS tape. Once she got the tape, Lucy turned back to the pink VCR and placed the tape in. Then, the TV screen started rolling. Bumblebee and Sari immediately joined the rosette girl in watching the newly discovered log.

Interviewer: "So, Stella. What makes you wanna work at the Playtime Co. factory?

Stella: Playing with toys when I was young, so magical. I could go straight to my bedroom door to anywhere in the world. It was such a great feeling, and being able to work at a toy factory somewhere that can provide kids with that same experience. That's a pretty great feeling too! Sometimes though, I really, really wish I could go back, to being a kid I mean. And it's weird, cause adults are just kids but older. I don't think everyone ever really feel like an adult, but your body just gets older, and older, and then you die.

Bumblebee cringed uncomfortably at the interview before he covers his audio receptors with his servos.

Stella: Poof! Haha, human bodies just can't stay young forever. There's things though, like some trees that can stay alive even being way older than a person. I mean, the oldest person to ever live are still younger than that! So I guess everyone is always young relative to something, right?

Interviewer: Alright, I think we're getting a little off track.

And with that, the audio log ends and the TV shutdown on it's own. The yellow mech was still uncomfortable by the interview log while Sari and Lucy looked at each other in confusion.

"What does she means by 'still younger than that'?" Sari asked, feeling a little spooked by the interview.

"Maybe, that's her way in saying that most people doesn't want to grow up and act like a real adult." Lucy suggested, shrugging.

They turned around and continued in exploring the metal bridge. Star Tracker noticed an incomplete power circuit before nudging Prowl's side. The said ninja bot nodded in understanding as he took the GrabPack and shoot the blue hand at a red button, charging the wire with electricity. They then walked around the metal catwalks, connecting the power to the steel poles. And then, they saw another button at the other catwalk before pressing it, completing the power connection.
