Blades and Heatwave make haste to try and find some money, which they dragged Boulder and Chase into.

"I am still confused, what are we doing?" Chase asks, still confused on what all four of them were doing in the home right now.

"Why do I feel like I have heard this story one too many times?" Boulder questions himself as he looks through one of the drawers to find random junk within.

Chase, Boulder, Blades, Heatwave, Aoife and Spark Fuse were all crowded in Ratchet's home, basically turning it upside down to find something within it. They all luckily only had one class that day so they could search but most of them had no idea what they were even looking for.

"We are trying to find some money!" Blades says with much venom, stomping up the stairs to try and search the upper level. "Now keep searching!"

"We need to find money to pay for his surgery, which he cannot pay for because he is currently stuck in a stasis lock and the surgery is to get him out of it." Heatwave explains. "We can't access the account because we are too young and also, he would never trust us with the password."

"ok, so how much do we have to find exactly?" Spark Fuse asks, finding some random item within a cupboard and very much clueless to what it was even doing in there. "Like $2000?"

"$142,350."

"That is a lot!" Aoife was actually floored by that amount. "for it being a stasis lock, that is a lot! Are they trying to make a bot break?"

"That is what I thought and then asked exactly what we would be paying for." Heatwave pulls out the entire list. "there was much more damage than they thought."

"What did he do, fall down the stairs?" Spark Fuse asks.

"Yes, that is exactly what he did, a patient pushed him apparently." Heatwave says, not actually joking about it because it was indeed the truth.

everyone gave looks to one another before then turning the entire place upside down. Everyone was searching everything, bringing many things to the floor and leaving every door and drawer open to make sure they didn't search it again. They raided every room, even getting upstairs to everyone's berth rooms.

"There has to be something in here!" Blades says, scrambling around his stuff to try and get something.

"I'll start raiding my room." Heatwave says, marching into his own room to empty it from head to toe.

Aoife and Boulder return to Blades' room, nothing in their servos as they shake their heads as an obvious no. There was much more distress added now, as they hadn't found anything and they were running out of spots to look.

"Hey Blades, What's in that crate?" Chase questions as he points to the closed crate in the corner of the room.

"Oh that, it just holds a ton of the pebbles I collected way back when I was tiny." Blades answers, getting up to show one that he keeps out all the time. "See? there is just a bunch more inside the crate, nothing special."

"Wait, how many of those have you collected?" Aoife asks, almost as if she was onto something at the moment.

"I don't know, like a good thousand." Blades says, not physically understanding what was so important about the pebbles he used to collect when he was younger. "Why?"

"Because that is money!" Boulder says, explaining as Aoife tries to go and get the crate. "Those pieces there can be exchanged for money, and having the amount you said you have might actually be more than enough!"

The screams that erupted in the room were loud and joyful, some sort of hope coming to light as they might actually be able to pay for it now and not lose anything. They immediately went to tell Heatwave and Spark Fuse the good news, and together, they all knew where to go next.
