A/N: I don't own any Dream Street characters used in this story. I only own my characters.
As the lightning crashed Buddy felt anger like never before growing inside him.
"Buddy stop!" Snowdrop called.
However Buddy only sped up in an attempt to ignore Snowdrop.
After an hour of running Buddy finally spotted Rodney who was now covered in mud from roof to wheel.
Buddy growled.
Rodney however was gasping for breath.
He knew his engine was overheating to the point of stopping completly.
The rain wasn't even touching his metalwork anymore, he was letting off so much heat that the water was evaporating before it could reach him.
"You!" Buddy growled.
Rodney looked up, it was clear he was weak.
"If it wasn't for you, Daisy would still be alive, we would still have somewhere to call home" Buddy shouted.
Rodney froze.
Buddy circled Rodney ready to attack.
Snowdrop arrived just in time to watch Buddy charge at Rodney at full speed.
"Dad stop!" she yelled but quickly realized her mistaked.
Buddy froze and looked at Snowdrop.
"What did you call me?" he asked.
"Sorry that just slipped out" Snowdrop said quickly.
It was then they heard the bang.
Snowdrop raced over to Rodney worried.
"His engine's overheated, we need to get him help" she said.
Buddy narrowed his eyes.
"Buddy please, if it was you he'd help you" Snowdrop said.
Buddy sighed.
"Please, he's going to die if we leave him" Snowdrop begged.
"He's nothing but a tratior!" Buddy said.
"Please" Snowdrop begged.
Buddy sighed.
"Fine, we'll take him to Dream Street, if Teck's still there he'll be able to fix Rodney" he said.
"But I still say we leave him here" he muttered.
"Please leave me, I don't deserve help after what I did" Rodney weakly said.
Buddy didn't know why but he suddnely felt worried, as if he knew Rodney's overheated engine wasn't the only problem he had.
He examined Rodney carefuly and noticed his chassis had large cuts and dents in it.
"What happened to you?" he asked.
"Who do you think" Rodney replied.
Buddy looked behind him and saw they would need to go back through the Black Forest.
He sighed, he knew they'd be walking into Blood Tie's clutches.
"Why did you do it Rodney?" he asked.
Rodney looked down in guilt.
"I was jealous of you and Daisy's relationship" he replied.
Buddy sighed.
"Rodney remember what Daisy told you, jealousy is a bad thing" he said as the rain started to stop.
"I'm sorry Buddy, I don't know how to undo this" Rodney said.
"We'll get through this, we've always beaten Blood Tie before so we'll beat him again" Buddy said.
"So how are we going to get back?" Snowdrop asked.
"We need to go around, it's the only way to get to Dream Street without running into Blood Tie" Buddy replied.
"In that case we'd better hurry" Snowdrop said seeing black smoke coming from Rodney.
