chapter 28 when someone dies

"It's so not fair! Why did this have to happen to me! Why did grandpa Twistout have die?" Hot rod said. Looking at his stuffed dragon. "Maybe it's because I asked in my prayers he wouldn't or if I didn't trick Hot shot into washing the dog bowl for three weeks." Hot rod said.

"You're blaming yourself for your grandpa's death you really shouldn't." A female voice said.

"I am I going crazy or did you just talk?" Hot rod asked his toy.

"You are not going crazy it's just me, Hannah." Hannah said over Laserbeak. Hannah was at college.

"That's good," Hot rod said with a sigh. "I thought I was loosing it."

"I'm sorry about your grandpa according to what you and your mother Tinside told me he sounded pretty cool." Hannah said.

"Yeah probably because I acted like such spoiled brat for past couple of days and if I didn't tell the lie about the trash compactor and cousin Sunstreaker's paint things would turned out different." Hot rod said.

"Now Hot rod you didn't cause your grandpa's death having bad thoughts, doing the wrong thing or lying can't cause someone to die." Hannah said. "Death isn't like that."

"But I don't understand this whole death thing I never dealt with anything like it." Hot rod said.

"I know how you feel when my great grandma east died I didn't know what to think. But that is normal but feeling fear is also normal and what do I say about fear?" Hannah said.

"Face it. But how can I face death?" Hot rod asked.

"A good question." Hannah said.

"But it helps to talk about it with your mom or your dad or cousins or friends." Hannah said.

Bumblebee came in. "Hey Hot rod how you doing came to hang out for awhile." He said.

Hot rod looked at him. "I brought you memory box you can fill it with things that remind you of your grandpa. Photos, drawings, even things he liked." Bumblebee said handing it over.

"I don't want that I want my grandpa!" Hot rod said.

"I know how you feel I felt the same way when my cat Mitzi died." Bumblebee said.

"My Grandpa is nothing like your dumb cat!" Hot rod snapped.

"Hey she was more than just a cat! She was like my best friend I remember one time this big bot was teasing me and."

"You are comparing my grandfather who cared about me and helped me realize my dreams with dumb cat! Get out!" Hot rod said.

Bumblebee began to leave. "Don't leave Bumblebee. You might be on to something people are normal angry when one close to them dies they say things they don't and take their anger out others." Hannah said.

"What am I suppose to due sit here and scream as loud as I can?' Hot rod asked.

"Sure it might help you feel better." Hannah said.

Hot rod deep breath screamed really loudly. Bumblebee covered his audios and Hannah covered her ears. Laserbeak fell onto a pillow. "Whoa! Maybe try something else." Hannah said.

Laserbeak shined messages on the screen. "You know you could've had Laserbeak do that before the screaming!" Bumblebee said.

"I guess but I'm afraid to fall asleep because I've been having these very scary dreams." Hot rod said.

"Don't worry I will stay here till you go to sleep and I will help with those dreams." Bumblebee said.

"Bumblebee the last time you tried to help someone I got sprained ankle and you had bucket of slop on your head." Hot rod said.

"Yeah not my best idea." Bumblebee said.

"Okay Hot rod as you fall asleep think about good things about your grandpa it will push away the bad stuff." Hannah said.

"Okay," Hot rod said.

Then Bumblebee dosed off. There was this flash of light and and old bot was standing there. "Grandpa Twistout you're suppose to be..." Hot rod said.

"Dead? I wouldn't let a little thing like death slow me stop me from seeing my favorite youngest grandson." Twistout said.

"I'm your only youngest grandson." Hot rod said.

"That is why you are my favorite." Twistout said.

Hot rod hugged him. "I already miss you so much." Hot rod said.

"I know come on we have to go." Twistout said.

They flew out the window. They sat down. "Grandpa what is it like to die?" Hot rod asked.

"That is a good question, but hard to answer." Twistout said.

"That's true," Hannah said.

"Who is that?" Twistout said.

"That's my friend Hannah she's talk to us through Laserbeak right here," Hot rod said pointing at the sky at the little orange robot bird.

"Oh good. Nice to finally meet you Hannah Hot rod told me a lot about you." Twistout said.

"Same here." Hannah said.

"You see when someone or something dies life leaves the body. It doesn't eat or breath anymore." Twistout said.

"I remember seeing in that box call a coffin it looked awful. So dark and stuffy." Hot rod said.

"Remember life had already left my body." Twistout said.

Then they went to a transformer cemetery. "Look this is the cemetery where you were buried." Hot rod said.

"Yep." Twistout said.

"You know I was upset when they took you away in that big ship dad called a horse." Hot rod said.

"A hearse." Hannah corrected.

"You know cemeteries really are not scary like they are in movies just quiet restful places." Hot rod said.

"That's true." Hannah said.

"Look is that funeral going on?" Hot rod asked.

"Yes." Twistout said.

"Can we take a look?" Hot rod asked.

They looked inside. "Grandpa he doesn't look scary just peaceful like you did." Hot rod said.

"Yes." Twistout said.

"Are all people and bots buried in coffins?" Hot rod asked.

"No some like being buried while others are cremated." Hannah said.

"Turned in to dairy?" Hot rod said.

"No the body is burned a high heat and turned into ash." Hannah answered.

"Ouch!" Hot rod said.

"No need to worry life has already left the body." Hannah told him.

They saw Cybertronian meadow. "Wow why are we here?" Hot rod asked.

"You know when people a cremated their ashes are either kept in a jar or something or spread across some place special to that person." Hannah answered.

"Are somebody's ashes here?" Hot rod asked.

"Yes your grandma Wayturn, you never knew her she died before you were born. But I know she would of loved you." Twistout said.

Then on Cybertron they were at an old house. "I can't believe we are here at your old house." Hot rod said.

"Yep we use to spend a lot time here." Twistout out said.

"Meow!" They heard it was Mitzi. She began licking and purring.

"Okay Mitzi!" Twistout said.

"Mitzi wow!" Hot rod said.

"Yes she is sweet cat and very loving who ever owned her on earth must have really loved her. I hope they didn't forget about her." Twistout said.

"I think they didn't." Hot rod said.

"Yeah you know even though someone you love died you can still do what you love right?" Twistout asked.

"Right." Hot rod said.

They made it back to earth at Hot rod's home. "I have to go." Twistout said.

"But I don't want you to." Hot rod said.

"I know it is like a roller coaster. The kind that makes you scream." Twistout said.

"I already did the screaming part." Hot rod said.

Twistout left.

Bumblebee woke up. "Bumblebee I'm sorry what said about Mitzi." Hot rod said.

"That's okay." Bumblebee said.

"Oh yeah she wanted me to tell you that she loves you and misses you and forgives you for the time you broke a vase and blamed it on her." Hot rod said.

"How did you know that?" Bumblebee asked.

"Good night Bumblebee." Hot rod said.

"Night." Bumblebee said and left.

"Night Hannah, good night grandpa." Hot rod said.
