"Hey Michael, where is Bonnie I need my power-packs reexamined before we leave," KITT innocently advised, unaware that he was about to receive terrible news. 

"Uhm Buddy, about that....." Michael started to explain before he choked back the emotion clogging his throat.  "I'm afraid..." he once more began....

"Yes, Michael?" Kitt questioned, his scanner swooshing from side to side as he analyzed Michael's vital signs for anything peculiar or alarming. 

"KItt? Bonnie isn't... coming back to work. Buddy, she resigned," Michael stammered, moving his hand to wipe a tear from his eyes. 

Kitt sank down on his tires and his engine ceased it's purring. His scanner slowly swooshed from side to side in disbelief. There was a momentary silence that overcame the garage as Kitt and Michael both considered the gravity of the situation.

"I didn't make her leave, did I ... Michael?" Kitt quietly questioned, a hint of fear hiding in his tone.

"No... no... pal, I'm sure you didn't cause her to leave," Michael reassured Kitt, running a hand across his slick black hood. 

"But Michael.... why?" Kitt choked, sinking even lower on his tires. 

"I.... I don't know, Kitt. I really wish I had an answer. We have to believe that where ever Bonnie went.... she is happier than she would have and could have been here...." Michael confided softly. 

"Devon said... his daughter will be coming to take Bonnie's place," he added in continuation of his half-hopeful statement.

With a sigh the curly haired F.L.A.G. sighed and explained, 'Bonnie left us all notes, but I can't read mine right now. Stevie will know something is wrong when we pick her and her wedding dress up from the shop. If you want, I can have Devon read you... yours..."

Kitt's scanner swished to life and his tires inflated a bit and he replied, "I'd like that very much." 

"Do you think there is a chance Bonnie will come back?" Kitt prompted softly.

Michael shook his head of curls from side to side and answered, "I doubt it. I really doubt it, pal. She asked us not to stop her from chasing her dreams. We both want to see her happy, don't we?"

"Of course Michael," came Kitt's immediate reply.
