i am so sorry for the late update, but my computer broke and I had to borrow my mothers until it's fixed. And she uses it 24/7.

This is request by someone. I don't know who, it only said "Guest". I know this is fairly popular topic amongst Rescue Bot fans. I hope you enjoy it.

I don't own . ?docid=34520325ue Bots. If i did, their would be more cute moments between the cast, and more crossovers between them and TF:Prime.


"Are you alright?" Frankie asked her best friend. It was a sunny Friday in the middle of May, leaving children itching to run away from the school and toward the park. But it was also the Friday before Mothers Day, and that left young Cody Burns in a very depressed state. He and Frankie were currently sitting on the curb in front of their school, waiting for their fathers; or for Cody either Kade, Graham or Dani.

"Yeah." The blonde boy sighed.

"You miss her, don't you?" Frankie said sympathetically, her face matching her voice. Though they both lost mothers, Cody was old enough to still have some memory. Frankie was only 2 when her mother died in a fatal car crash.

A car horn snapped both children out of their saddened state. They looks up to seek Frankie father in his green truck pulling into the schools parking lot.

"I gotta go. See ya later?" Frankie asked, worried for her best friend.

"Huh," Cody said, looking up, "Oh. Yeah. See ya."

Frankie cast one more sympathetically and worried look at her best friend before reluctantly climbing into the truck.

Cody's big brown eyes followed her best friend and her father until they were out of sight. Signing, he drew his legs to his chest and set his chin on his knees. He missed his mother SOO much. 'Its my fault she's dead," The youngest Burns thought bitterly. A shadow loomed over him.

"Cody, are you alright?" The blonde boy craned his head at the sound of his older brother's voice.

"Hey, Graham. Yeah, I'm ready." He picked up his bag, stood up, and shuffled over towards Boulder. Graham gave his younger brother a worried look. Despite Cody never saying anything, Graham knew the younger boy felt responsible for his mothers death, but wouldn't push the issue.

The ride home was long, silent, and tense. No one spoke. Cody sat in the back, starring out the window, Graham kept shooting his brother worried looks, and Boulder was becoming confused. Why anyone was feeling sad on this gorgeous day was beyond him.

The moment the reached the firehouse, Cody raced upstairs, and locked himself in his room. Boulder knew something was wrong and asked, "Graham, do you know what wrong with Cody?"

Said brunette sighed heavily, "Tomorrows Mother's Day. He always gets upset."

"Why?"

"Because he feels like its his fault."

"Oh...What's a mother?"

Graham chuckled, "A mother is the female parent. The one who carries the baby in her stomach."

Boulder shuddered, remembering the "birds and the bee's talk" the bots had with Chief when Blades, the fool, asked where "human sparklings" came from. "And this 'Mothers Day' is to celebrate that?"

"Exactly. But... its kind hard to celebrate Mothers Day without a mother."

Boulder could plainly see the tears in Graham's brown eyes, and hear his voice cracking when he said "Without"

"Graham," Boulder asked cautiously, " What happened to your mother? If you don't mind my asking!" The green autobot quickly added.

"No. By now you should have a right to know." Graham took a few deep breaths to compose himself. "Cody was about 4 years old and like all 4year old's, he wanted to everything himself to prove he was a big boy. So, tried to make himself toast and give himself a bath."

"How is that so bad?"

"He tried to do both at the same time. That was the problem. So he took the toaster to the bathroom, to this day I have no idea how he did that, and plugged it in the socket near the tub, and managed to perch it right on the ledge. But what he forgot to do was turn the water off. It over flowed and that's how mom found out; she saw the water leaking from under the door. She rushed in, and took him to his room. When she went to get the toaster...s-she slipped and fell in the tub a-and the toaster fell in as well."

By now Graham had tears rolling down his cheeks, and Boulder was speechless.

"Wow. Thats...quit a story."

"Yeah."

"Do you blame him?"

"What? No! Cody was only 4. I just wish he would believe that." Graham sighed yet again.

"You should tell him that, and make sure he believes it as well." Boulder said.

Graham wiped his eyes, "I will." The sandy brown haired man ran over towards the elevator. Just before he entered, Graham turned back towards his partner. "And Boulder... thanks for listening. I haven't told anyone that story."

It was Boulder's time to chuckle, "That's what partners do."

For the first time all day, Graham Burns smiled a genuine smile.
