Crosshairs and Drift walk into the building; Bulma and Cade waiting for them. Crosshairs is a little worried while Drift is trying not to panic. Unsure if this is awkward or not, Crosshairs puts an arm around Drift's back and walks with him towards Jamie.
I'm a little worried about what we're about to be told, but I feel Drift is terrified. Crosshairs thinks.
Bulma takes Drift's band and has him sit down, not thinking this is scaring him even more.
"She's getting better, look."
She points to the ventilator; the screen showing 80%. Sure, requiring 80% oxygen support is still high, but Jamie has been on 95% for the past thirty-nine days.
Drift tries to be happy about this, but memories of seeing his girl flatline plagued his mind.
"No, she's past that hurdle," Bulma assures him.
I think you should be able to hold her in a couple of weeks. Bulma hopes as she watches Crosshairs and Drift sit by Jamie.
With the way Jayce and J.R. have been, Crosshairs and Drift don't dare stay away from the two girls for long. Both Bulma and Cade hating how the two mechs can't even stay with Jamie for long. They know the two want to stay with Jamie.
Crosshairs and Drift talked about if they should tell the girls Jamie is making good improvements. They knew Bulma was letting them make the final decision.
"I-I don't know if it'll help them," Drift says in a sad tone.
"It'll either help or have no effect," Crosshairs tells him.
The two girls are still asleep. Crosshairs and Drift talk to Bumblebee and Hound about telling the girls about Jamie's progress.
Both share the same concern as Drift and agree with Crosshairs; the girls' mental state can't worsen from hearing good news.
The girls had no reaction when being told the news. The four mechs aren't sure what to think about the lack of reaction. Bumblebee and Hound take the girls to watch T.V.
Two hours pass before Crosshairs and Drift go where the others are as J.R. runs out of the room; Bumblebee and Hound following. Crosshairs follows them as Drift quickly texts Bulma to tell her to get here immediately before going into the room. By the looks of it, Jayce tried to stop J.R. Drift wonders why she didn't run after J.R. as he listens to Jayce's crying though muffled by the pillow as she lies on the couch.
J.R. told her something before running out of the room, and it's upsetting her. Drift worries as he moves Jayce onto his lap, feeling her tremble as she cries.
J.R. is running as fast as she can to grab what she wants from the lab and open a portal.
"STOP!" Crosshairs yells.
He manages to jump on her to stop her, shocked by how hard she's fighting him.
J.R. Throws him off her and opens a portal.
"NO!" Crosshairs yells as he watches J.R. run through the portal, and it closes behind her.
"Hound! Did she hide where she went?"
Hound works as fast as he can to find where J.R. went.
"She hid where she went. How the hell can she do that, and quickly?" Hound frets as he tries to find where J.R. went.
"I know where she went," Crosshairs says in a sad tone.
Hound immediately knows where Crosshairs is talking about and quickly opens a portal for Crosshairs.
"We'll find you if you're not back in five minutes," he tells Crosshairs as Crosshairs grabs a medkit.
Fuck J.R., why now? Hound questions as he watches Crosshairs leave through the portal.
"How the hell did she wait forty days? Why now?" Hound asks Bee as if he has the answers, "I hope as Jamie is getting better, we don't have a seriously injured J.R. to worry about."
Jayce sensed J.R.'s energy vanish; she knew it meant J.R. got away through a portal. She tightens her hold on Drift as she continues to cry.
Fuck J.R., why now? Please get to her, Crosshairs. Jayce can't handle it if J.R. is injured. Drift tries to stay calm for Jayce but worries things are going to get a lot more challenging.
