Where's Blades

Me and Him

'It was stupid... why didn't I think better? I could've been smarter... primus help me.' Wheeljack thought as he laid there his arms were currently being repaired off body so Ratchet could be more precise and not hurt Wheeljack as he worked. Wheeljack was just staring at Bulkhead... Bulk was in bad condition and was currently in a coma, the impact broke his back strut along with plating, helm, neck cables, back plates and legs. He was a wreck, Wheeljack chuckled dryly at his own thought. It hurt to think that soon Wheeljack will be the last wrecker again, that once again he could only watch hopelessly as a teammate- no brother dies in front of him. Why couldn't he just save someone. He didn't want to cry so a quiet dry sob escaped his raspy and strained voice box. He wanted to tell himself that Bulk would bounce back, like he always would but the more he told himself the less he believed it. The thought of just up and leaving would cross his processor but Bulkhead would've hated him for going against his last wishes... oh frag how was Miko going to react? This was his fault... she'd probably hate him, she'd probably think he was garbage for this, he is... he is and he didn't deserve Bulkhead as a friend he didn't deserve any of this. Wheeljack bit his lip as he tried to hold back tears.

Why did Bulkhead have to save him of all bots?

Else Where

Dani had gotten out her old helicopter and was flying around town, she had grown into the habit of telling Blades when they were going higher expecting some kind of argument against it but... silence. Every time Dani would always mentally punch herself for doing it, when they were in bad situation she'd warn the helicopter they were going in closer, or they were getting some hard winds, stupid. She missed Blades too much. Dani shook her head to stop thinking about it as she walked into the garage and stared at the helicopter in silence with a cup of coffee in her hand. Usually she would be telling Blades its time to go but she didn't speak and just stared as she finished her coffee. Dani knew it wasn't her fault for Blades disappearance but he couldn't help but part of her couldn't help it... "Everything alright?" The gravely voice of Heatwave almost made Dani jump out of her skin making her drop the mug and it shattered on the ground. "didn't mean to sneak up on you." Heatwave said in an apologetic voice as he bent down to try and help but Dani only lightly pushed his digits away as he picked it up. "Its fine i'm just a little jittery from the coffee." She said picking up the glass shards. Heatwave knew something was bugging her as he got down on one knee to look at her in a better angle. "Missin' Blades?" He asked and she stopped for a moment. "Said I was fine." She said and picked up the last of the shards. "You can't close yourself off, Dani." He said as she walked over to a trash can to throw away the broken mug. "Coming from you that's pretty ironic." She murmured but Heatwave caught it. "I'm trying to get better and so should you. Things are hard and Blades is where he needs to be. He's safe." Heatwave said.

"I understand you care but I'm fine, really." Dani said not looking at him as she walked over to her helicopter. "Could you just mind your own business." Dani said in almost an insulting way as the helicopter was lifted to take off zone and Dani took off. Heatwave was slightly offended but he didn't want to push her so he dropped it at that. Griffin Rock wasn't the same without Blades, it seemed quieter and the remote and couch was barely touched like there was an invisible barrier around it preventing anyone. Blades room was also untouched though there was word of cleaning it up no one really wanted to go in, It hurt the whole team and it effected Heatwave the most he was the leader of the RescueBots he needed to protect them... but he lost Blades and everyone seems to be on edge, he was supposed to help with things like this! He always would say some weird pop-culture reference that Heatwave couldn't understand or just make a list of things that could go wrong... the team wasn't the same and it hurt. Heatwave gulped down the lump in his throat, even if he was there to help Blades he wouldn't do much... Heatwave wasn't built for combat, rescue work, large heat levels and heavy lifting that's what he was made for but fighting?

A little shorter than usual but HEY LOOK ITS GRIFFIN ROCK!! We haven't seen this place in a while! For anyone confused about why Wheeljack is talking about Bulk like he's already dead its because Jackie has lost a lot of close friends and doesn't expect Bulk to make it...
