Chief Burns, Cody, and Chase were on the ferry, trying to find a 'sea monster'.
"I've heard driftwood could be mistaken for sea monsters," Chase whispered.
"Well, this driftwood has been circling the ferry for three days," Chief Burns said.
Dolphin-like noises came from the commlinks.
"Whoa, you have dolphin police?!" a 25 year old man with a blond Flash Thompson-like haircut said in amazement.
"That was one of our animal control officers," Cody said, "her suit needs some work on it."
"Jackie can you repeat what you said?" Chief asked.
More dolphin noises.
"Oh, for the love of- just surface and tell us!" Chief said.
Two webbed metallic hands appeared on the edge of the boat, and Chief and Cody helped Jackie up.
"Your animal control officer is a robot mermaid?! That's insane!" the man said.
"It's a scuba suit, dingbat!" the man's sister said.
"I said 'oarfish'," Jackie said after she deactivated her mask.
Something hit the boat, causing it to jerk.
"Ice?!" Cody exclaimed as he looked over the edge. "It's not winter yet!"
Then an iceberg appeared and it was getting close to the boat.
"Rescue Bot, take care of that iceberg!" Chief said.
Chase tried to push the iceberg away, but it was too much for one bot.
Jackie's skin turned a light grey, and her eyes and hair turned blue.
What is she doing?! Chase thought.
"Cover your ears!" Jackie took in a big breath and let out a scream more powerful that X-Men's Banshee.
The sonic waves pushed away the iceberg.
"Jackie, how did you know that would work?" Cody asked.
Jackie shrugged her shoulders.
Chief Burns threw his comm onto the iceberg. That confused the others, but Jackie knew why he did it. She saw the figure too.

"So... are the guys in the nuclear sub trying to kill the guys in the WWII sub?" First Aid asked Heatwave.
"No, it's a war game," Heatwave said.
"Was that the ship?" Bulkhead asked after a noise happened.
"Given the faces those guys are making, I'd say no."
"Hi, guys," Jackie said as she and Cody got off the elevator.
"Did you catch a giant fish?" Bulkhead asked.
"No," Cody said, "but Dad and Jackie saw someone on the iceberg and Dad threw his comm on it."
"I'm bringing my Agsaber with me," Jackie went into transmutate one. "BRB!" She zoomed off into the tunnels.
"Iceberg?!" Heatwave said in surprise.
"I told you about it, Heatwave!" Chroma said over the comm.
xxx
"Um... c-could we fly a little higher, Dani?" Blades nervously asked.
"You want to fly higher? Alert the media," Dani said.
"It is a known fact that sea monsters like to snatch low flying creatures."
Jackie started to make chicken noises from the back seat.
"There's the iceberg!" Cody pointed.

Chroma was checking the comm recordings from the past year.
"Hey, Chroma," Ally said. "How are you feeling?"
"Good," Chroma said as she cracked her neck.
"You should be careful," Bulkhead said.
"I only have bruises now, Bulkhead," Chroma turned to Ally. "How was your lunch run?"
"Someone told me to go back to my home country, and I said that I am and for them to mind their own business," Ally said.
"Yeah, these folks may have some difficulty adjusting to you, Ally," Chief Burns said as he walked in.
Chroma pressed 'play' on an audio recording and had a disgusted, horrified look on her face.
"What is it, Chroma?" Chief asked in a worried tone.
"Gross!" Chroma ripped off the headset.
Ally put on a human sized headset and pressed 'play'. "Yuck!" She took off her headset as well.
"Hey, Heatwave," Bulkhead pulled in the mech. "Do you have any idea what's this about?"
Heatwave put on the headset. "Um, have you guys ever wondered why I didn't talk to Kade for a few days...?"

Jackie wanted to melt the ice on the control panel they found, but Dani used anti-ice stuff on it.
Cody pressed one of the buttons and Blades yelped as the floor opened beneath him.
"Dude, you okay?" Jackie asked.
"No. More. Pushing. Random. Buttons!" Blades said as he brushed himself off.
"Hey, is there a crow bar in there? I see boxes."
Blades just let the humans in.
xxx
"I thought I turned off my comm..." Kade said after he heard the audio.
"It's now an all new kind of awkward," Chroma said.
xxx
Blades, Dani, and Cody walked through the storage of the boat, trying to find if anyone was trapped.
"W-w-wait-t-t-t up!" Jackie shivered as she flew to catch up.
"Are you okay?" Blades asked.
"I-I'm c-c-cold," Jackie started to go dragon.
"Don't go dragon and we'll get hot cocoa on the way back," Dani said.
"D-d-don't you kn-n-now about w-werew-wolv-v-ves? Th-they can't-t control it-t!" Jackie's horns and claws became visible. "Blades, hold my suit!" She tossed the Nyaid to the bot and went all dragon.
The team continued to search the ship and found a desk and portrait of the captain.
Jackie nudged the tops of some of the crates open and stuck her head in them. She wound up like one of those cats with tissue boxes on their heads.
"This journal says that is the S. S. Isolde," Cody said. "Hey! This is Great-Grandpa's ship!"
"And it looks like we found out why it's covered in ice," Dani said after Jackie took the tarp off the machine.
"Yeah, they forgot to turn it off," Blades flicked a lever and was quickly frozen.
Dani reached for the deicer, but Jackie fire breathed the bot the defrost him.
"Blades, are you okay?!" Dani asked.
"N-no. More. Fl-flipping. R-random. Sw-witches. E-either."
"I think Jackie missed a spot," Cody pointed out.

The rescue team was about to discuss what to do about the iceberg/boat in the bunker.
First Aid walked over to a shivering Blades and put a heavy blanket over his shoulders.
"Th-thanks, F-first A-aid," Blades said.
"I've noticed a crack on your gyroscope, I think," First Aid said.
"Y-you th-think?!"
"I'm not good with copter terms!"
"Guys, the meeting is about to start," Chroma said as Chase helped her walk.
"Most of the Isolde's cargo was top secret," Graham said, "except the Sub-Zero Expander."
Blades yelped when she saw the hologram.
"Avert you optics, Blades," Chase covered the copter's eyes, "think warm thoughts."
Dragon Jackie licked Blades' face. There was now a slobber string.
Graham explained what the machine did.
"I say we blow it up! Huh?" Heatwave and Kade looked at each other.
Jackie let out a low growl.
"Why do you guys like explosions?" K-9 asked.
"We'll do it first thing in the morning," Chief said, "Cody, you and K-9 will stay here."
The doorbell rang.
Jackie tried to say 'doorbell'.
"Time for you to go home," Boulder said as he walked her to the tunnel.
xxx
Blades was lying on his belly in the medbay so First Aid could fix his rotors.
"Is this going to hurt?" he asked.
"No," First Aid said, "all you'll feel is a pinch while you're out."
First Aid started to put Blades into stasis and massaged his rotors as he fell asleep. He then numbed the area once Blades was out and began to replace the gyroscope. He had a little trouble with the new gyroscope, it wouldn't go in, and had to use his body weight to get it in.
Blades squeaked and his rotors twitched.
First Aid grabbed a blanket, tucked Blades in, and turned off stasis.

"I don't think that you should bring Jackie on this mission," Bulkhead said as he threw the lobbing ball to Heatwave. "She could go dragon again."
"She's only coming to keep the marine life away," Heatwave tossed the ball back.
"All right..."
Bulkhead and Heatwave continued to toss the ball when the former asked: "What was on the audio file?"
Heatwave froze and then got hit in the middle with the ball.
"You okay?" Bulkhead helped Heatwave up.
"Kade was being intimate with his girlfriend, Hayley," the firebot said, "he had his comm on the firefighter channel."
The Wrecker's eyes widened. "You mean you heard them-" he lowered his voice to a whispered "- interfacing?"
"The whole 20 minutes."
"Ewww!"
xxx
GA-GLUNK-GLUNK-A-GLUNK!
"What's that?" Dani asked Blades.
"I don't know!" Blades whimpered. "I had my rotors and gyroscope fixed last night!"
POK!
"AAAHH!"
CRASH!
"Dani! Blades! Are you two okay?" Chief asked.
"My rotors popped off, but we're both fine," Blades said.
"Looks like First Aid's going to be on this mission," Heatwave said.
xxx
Cody sadly looked at the monitor. He really wanted to be on the boat helping his family.
"Wassup!" K-9 said as he transformed.
"AAH! You know that scares me!"
"Wanna go for a walk? Play ball? Study Jackie's blood?" K-9's tail wagged.
Cody just opened his great-grandpa's journal.
"I'll go freak out the new guys," K-9 got back into dog-mode and left.
xxx
Heatwave and Boulder used their energizers to make holes for the bombs First Aid and Chase put in.
"Alright, let's get out of the blast zone," Chief said.
xxx
Ally grumbled something in a language that Cody didn't know as she dragged K-9 to the Command Center.
"It was funny!" K-9 defended.
"T.J. peed himself!" Ally said. "Now, STAY!" she left.
K-9 whimpered and pawed Cody's leg.
"What is it?" Cody asked.
"Shark."
Cody looked at the screen and gasped. "Dad, something swam under the iceberg and I think it's alive!"
xxx
"It's probably nothing," Jackie said as she sat on the boat's edge.
"It could be a submersible!" Graham said.
"Heatwave," Chief turned to the bot.
"On it! Rescue Bots, roll to the rescue!"
The rescue bots went back on the iceberg and threw the bombs off before they exploded in the water.
The bots reboarded the boat, with the help from First Aid's electro-magnets, when the sub surfaced.
"Chief Burns!" the occupant said. "Why must you and your rescue robots always get in my way?!"
"Cool sub," Jackie said. "Y'know my suit also has a sea creature theme."
"This solves two mysteries," Chief said.
xxx
"Dr. Morocco," Cody said.
"The guy from 'Indiana Jones and the Holy Grail'?" K-9 asked.
"What? No!"
xxx
"I legally have permission to salvage this vessel," Morocco shoved a document in Chief's face, "signed by your mayor."
"I'll check with the mayor," Cody said.
"There are warrants out for your arrest," Chief said.
"I intend on paying my bail," Morocco stubbornly said. First Aid caught his eye. "Is that a new robot?"
First Aid was in fight or flight mode as the scientist looked him up and down.
"I checked with the mayor, Dad," Cody said, "it's legit."
"C'mon team, let's head back to the docks," Chief started the boat's engine.
Morocco went back into his submarine and left.
Once the bots were sure they weren't being followed they dropped the act.
"I-I-I don't like that guy," First Aid began to pace back and forth on the boat.
"Hard to imagine someone who would," Heatwave said.
"Easy on the pacing, First Aid!" Kade said. "You're rocking the boat!"
"Well, sorry for being scared!" First Aid said before a wave hit the boat, causing him to go overboard.
"I'll put my suit on," Jackie took off her life jacket.
Cody was doing some more reading of his ancestor's journal when he discovered dangerous information on the Sub-Zero Expander.
"Dad, listen to this: the journal says that if the Sub-Zero Expander gets damaged it will freeze everything in a five mile radius!"
xxx
"We hear you, Cody," Chief turned the boat around.
Dragon Jackie tossed First Aid back on the boat.
"Oof!" the medic grunted.
"It's one thing for Dr. Morocco to endanger himself, but this is more serious!" Chief said.
Once they got back to the iceberg, the team sprang into action.
"That man is not one of humanity's best examples," Heatwave said after he put Morocco into his ship's storage area.
Chief and Chase got to the open Isolde's storage, but the machine was about to blow.
"Everyone, to your bots! Now!"
First Aid tensed up a bit, but complied.
"Hey, where's Jackie?" Kade looked around.
Then the Sub-Zero Expander blew, freezing all the bots in vehicle mode.
xxx
"Oh, crap!" Ally said and the two new EMT's jaws dropped.
"C'mon, let's go!" Blades ran to his helipad, elevator, thingy.
"Aren't you forgetting something?" Chroma said as she stood up with a hand on the wall as she held Blades' rotors.
"Oh."
xxx
It's freaking cold! Jackie thought as she struggled to get her lower half out of the bottom of the ice.
She split her tail into legs and kicked.
xxx
Well, it could be worse, First Aid thought to himself.
Dani was a Daniela, not a Daniel.
xxx
"Bulkhead! Wake up!" Chroma shook the large mech.
"Huh, wha' time iz i'?" Bulkhead rubbed his optics.
"Not much rest?"
"Nah, 'cons. Wha's goin' on?"
Chroma pointed at the monitor as Blades pressed a button the remote.
"Did I sleep 'til winter?!"
xxx
Cody, K-9, Ally, and the new recruits arrived at the docks.
Cody used the land to water cycle to transport deicer to his family while the others were shooing away the lookie loos.
xxx
"I got it this time!" Kade rammed the inside of Heatwave's door.
Bang!
"Owowowowowow!" Kade rubbed his shoulder.
"You okay?" the fire-bot asked.
"Just a little sore."
"Everybot, try your heaters!" First Aid said as he turned on his own.
"We don't have those," Chase said.
Cody arrived at the iceberg and got off the cycle.
"Hey, me first!" Heatwave said. "Kade's overstayed his welcome."
Cody sprayed deicer on all the bots.
"Hey, did you see Jackie?" Graham asked as he got out of Boulder.
"I think she's still under the ice," First Aid said as he transformed into bot mode.
"I'll call Lindsy!" Graham got out his cell phone and called the animal control officer on speed dial.
"You have her on speed dial?" Kade asked.
She can track Jackie with her Transmutate Tracker. None of the bots have them."
"Sure you ain't datin'?" Kade poked Graham in the ribs.
"Jackie's on the move," Lindsy said. "I think she's looking for an opening in the ice."
"Looks like the bad doctor got away," Chief said to Chase.
"Dad, Lindsy said that if Jackie freaks out, she might melt the ice to get an opening," Graham said.
"I think she might have done that already," Kade pointed to the cracking ice.
"I saw four cars trying to drive on the ice on my way here!" Cody said.
"We're on it!" Heatwave said. "Rescue Bots, roll to the rescue!"
The bots ran onto the ice and transformed to save the four drivers who thought it was a good idea to drive on ice.
The iceberg began to fall apart.
"Everybody, onto the boat!" Chief shouted.
Then a chunk of ice fell and broke part of the boat.
"We're taking on water!" Kade shouted.
xxx
Jackie found an opening next to the ferry. She shot her arms up and jumped to the boat's side.
She failed like a cat in a cat fail video.
She tried again and two boys from her school helped her aboard.
"Jackie, is that you?" the short one with curly hair asked.
Jackie dropped the mask and visor.
"How do you go to the bathroom in that thing?" the tall one with a buzz cut asked.
Jackie rolled her eyes and looked at the beach.
xxx
"Did Dr. Morocco just save you?!" First Aid asked.
"I didn't think he had a good bone in his body," Chief said.
"Where is this 'good bone' located?" Chase whispered.
"Maybe it's next to the 'funny bone' we've heard of," Boulder suggested.
"The humorous has nothing to do with humor," First Aid said.
xxx
The Rescue Bots were resting from the emergency in the bunker while the Burnses were upstairs.
Cody was a bit upset that he wasn't able to get his great-grandpa's portrait from the ship.
"You won't believe what I found at our front door!" Kade said as he walked in with the painting.
Little did they know that there was a tiny camera in the frame.
