Blades and Boulder meet for the first time.
____________________________________________________________________________________________

it was ever so rare that Ratchet had time off from work but it truly wasn't like his job was completely horrible, but still, time off was rare. Even with this time off, Ratchet made sure Blades could do what he wanted, especially because he had officially started in schooling, but was rather a shy bot.

"Remember, don't stray off too far!" Blades was making a run for the stream, more likely to pick the pebbles of metal that were in the bottom of the liquid stream that goes deep into the city.

Cybertron was mostly a city that had tall buildings and bright lasting lights but there were still parts that remained like beautiful plains of nothing but beauty. Many unique forms of plants grew in these wide open areas and there was much peace that lay within them, making it a peaceful destination.

Ratchet takes this time out in the plains to take a moment to relax, after all, Blades would normally just be picking pebble for half the solar cycle and then they would go home and do something together.

Blades was quick to get to his favorite point in the stream, seeing all the little pebbles of metal that were in the liquid river. they all varied in shape and size but also in their unique colors, and the ones that shimmered the most were the ones that he always happened to look for. there are some that shimmer a ton, which made them desecrated from some of the buildings in the city, which made them rare and could be sold at a high price depending.

Blades just liked how pretty they were.

It took much to find these unique pieces that Blades was looking for but there was always such excitement when he picked them. Ratchet had set aside an entire crate for his findings, which had already covered the bottom and would soon reach a fourth of its full capacity.

"What are you doing?" Blades looked up from his stares, seeing another boy around his age looking directly at him.

"I-I'm looking for pebbles," Blades was indeed very nervous and felt some sort of embarrassment, but he held out one of the shiny pebbles for the bot to look at. "See."

"Woah, you are able to find those ones?!" this mech, this green mech, he seemed to be quite happy. "all I have found are these cool shaped ones."

Blades takes a moment to inspect the pebbles the green mech is holding, noticing all their cool shapes and minor details that they all held, but of course, they had no value.

"Let's look for them together!" Blades says, noticing how they are now dragging one another along the stream to find two different kinds of pebbles that are within the bottom of the liquid lake.

Together, they find many pebbles that they were both looking for, switching a couple with one another as some sort of reminder to this day full of friendship. Even with all their findings, they took the time to play along in the field and made their bond even stronger than it was when they first met each other.

it got to a point where they were both lying in the field, both of them happy and certainly nolt as shy to one another as they first were.

"I have to go." the green mech says, almost knowing his time here to play is up. "I don't live in this area and my creators were only visiting."

"oh." Blades was a little sad by this but ultimately knew the green mech had to go.

Blades knew he wouldn't forget this mech who played with him, he had a couple pebbles that were given to him. While they hugged each other goodbye, one simple question came to his mind.

"Wait, what is your name?" Blades is kind of shocked he didn't ask sooner, but he had to know so he could find the bot again.

The green mech had heard this and stopped, turning around to give a reply before he was possibly gone for good.

"Boulder." He then turned back and headed to where his creators were more likely waiting for him so they could all return home.

On that day, Blades made a friend, but he was unsure if he would ever meet Boulder again.
