I was helping my Dad and Doc Greene blow up giant balloons for the Lobster and Technology Festival Parade. Apparently, Doc invented a new type of gas called floatium.

Chief: Hi Frankie, hi son. Hold this, will you?

He handed Cody one of the cords for the Lobster balloon.

Doc: We're almost finished inflating these parade balloons. Saved the biggest for last.

Gear: Hey, Cody, did you tell Franky about you, and the bots are doing with me tomorrow?

Cody: I get to ride in the parade, too, with Dad and Bailey. The Rescue Bots are the guests of honor.

Franky: Robots? Big deal. Griffin Rock's got a million of them.

Then the wind picked up and took the lobster balloon away with Doc being stuck in one of the ropes. I quickly transformed my pedes into their rollerblade form and chased after Doc. I could hear my Dad, Cody, and Franky running behind me.

Chief: Chase! Transform and rescue!

Doc was able to hold on to a statue. Chase jumped over me and went to grab Doc, when the wind took Doc further up again.

Franky: Daddy!

Doc: Help!

He flew with the balloon towards city hall where he was able to rescue himself, by holding on to the roof.

Chief: Doc, try to get your ankle loose from the rope.

He was able to, but he was still stuck and holding onto the ledge of a roof. The other bots finally arrived. Blades went after the balloon, while Heatwave and Kade retrieved Doc from the roof while Heatwave stood on Chases boosting hand.

Doc: Sorry I gave you a scare, honey. Sorry I gave myself a scare! But I'm fine, thanks to you, Kade.

Then Heatwave started to grumble, so Kade coughed to cover it up. I left them there and started to roll away from the crowds. It was getting late and knowing Team Prime, I was going to get a call soon. I had made it towards just outside the firehouse, when my phone rang.

Gear: Hey, Bailey Burns speaking.

Jack: Oh, um, sorry, I think I have the wrong number.

Gear: Don't hang up. It's me, Gear. Sorry, I was outside of my house and didn't want anyone to be sus of me. Where I am, my nickname is Bails not Gear. So, what's new team?

Unknown bot: So, this is the bot I've heard so much about.

Gear: And you must be a wrecker with your accent or are you also from Velocitron?

Unknown Bot: Ha, got it in one, names Wheeljack.

Gear: Hey, before I sign off, could I talk to Bulk privately, really quick.

It got quiet and I could only hear Bulk.

Bulk: What's up?

Gear: Bulk, you have to listen to me. This is really important. That isn't Wheeljack.

Bulk: What do you mean that isn't Jackie?

Gear: Look, me and Jackie met on Cybertron, before it died. We agreed if we ever talked again to use a special coded greeting. He didn't respond to the code. I had a friend; his name is Makeshift. I used to be close with him till he decided to join the cons. He has an ability that allows him to make himself look and sound like any bot.

After telling him this, I hung up. I didn't allow him to actually respond. I knew, I was right, I mean who wouldn't forget a secret code. I still remember the one I made with Dani when she was three. The next day arrived sooner than I thought it would. I woke up to a few missed calls from Miko. I ended up, just calling the team.
