At the Firehouse, 3/4 of the Burns siblings and the four Rescue Bots were chatting with the new recruits.

"So, you can read animals minds?" Cody asked.

"No," Jackie responded, a bit angrily, "I communicate with them telepathically, which is how many animals speak." She took a breath to calm herself. "There's a difference."

"Uh, h-hi Chroma," Chase said, obviously nervous, "how do you like it here?"

Chroma stared at him in the optics, with a soul-piercing, icy look in her optics. "I'll let you know in a week," she calmly said.

Chase got chills from her stare.

"How do you handle gore?" Blades asked.

"Blades!" Dani said.

"What?"

"I told you not to ask that."

"Actually," First Aid said, "I can stand most serious trauma such as severe burns, broken skeletal rods, decapitation-"

THUD!

"Uh, Blades?" First Aid asked, "Are you okay?"

Blades, laying on the floor, only groaned before blacking out.

Blades' optics fluttered open. He saw a light shining into them.

"Ugh..." Blades tried to move his helm and try to stop the light shining into his optics but his helm hurt like the Pit, ringing blocking out most sound to his audio receptors. "UGH!"

"Is Blades gonna be okay?" Dani asked.

"Did you not see his helm hit the crate?" Chroma sarcastically said.

"Chroma's right," First Aid said, not catching the sarcasm, "Blades could have serious trauma. Blades - would you just - stay - still!"

Blades was sqwerming like a fish. Boulder and Chase helped First Aid finish the exam by holding Blades still.

"Blades doesn't seem to have any major injuries other than that gouged part on his helm," First Aid said, "I personally suggest he get some bed rest for a few days and a week of off-duty time after that."

"Good thing it's nothing serious." Heatwave said.

The phone rang.

"Griffin Rock Emergency," Chief Burns said into the phone, "We'll be right there Mrs. Neederlander." He hung up the phone. He turned to Chase and Jackie. "Case Jackie, you're with me."

"I'll get Abby," Jackie said.

They arrived at Mrs. Neederlander's house. Jackie looked at the tree.

"Is the dog gone?"

"The cat wants to know if the dog's gone," Jackie told Chief. She saw the cat's owner's mouth open. "What?"

"Jackie," Chief said, "your hair."

"Oops," she realized her hair turned blue. She turned to the cat, "Don't worry, there's no dog."

Chase got the cat out of the tree.

Blades felt someone carrying him. He opened his optics, everything was a bit blurry, but his optics adjusted. He looked at who was carrying him. It was Boulder.

"What happened?" Blades asked, very softly.

"You passed out and hit you helm," Boulder answered, "First Aid says you need a few days of bed rest and a week off after that."

After a few minutes of walking, Blades was placed onto his berth by Boulder.

"Why did I faint?"

Boulder didn't want to tell Blades the truth.

"You and First Aid were talking and you, just, passed out-"

"Because I'm a cowered!"

"W-what? No!"

"I know why I fainted Boulder!" Blades began to take heavy breaths, "I know."

"Blades," Boulder crouched down to look Blades in the optics, "get some rest. Doctor's orders."

"Okay." Blades closed his optics and drifted off to sleep.

Kade arrived home at 5:00 p.m.

"What took you?" Heatwave asked.

"I did something stupid."

"Like what?"

"I got Hayley pregnant." Kade said as he face palmed.

"I told you that it was a bad idea."

"Shut up."
