The Rescue Bots Academy buzzed with laughter as the young recruits and their human friends enjoyed a well-deserved break. Boulder and Blades had set up the game room for a little friendly competition, complete with flashing screens, virtual races, and interactive games that had everyone eager to join in.
“Alright, everyone!” Blades announced with a grin, his rotors spinning with excitement. “Who’s ready for some ultimate video game action?”
Kids scrambled toward the controllers, laughter and playful trash-talking filling the room as they picked their avatars and challenged each other. Heatwave crossed his arms, chuckling as he watched the chaos. “You kids better not go easy on them, now. Teach these bots a thing or two.”
But amid the cheers and shouts of excitement, Blades noticed something odd. He scanned the room once, then twice, frowning. “Hey, has anyone seen {{user}}?”
One of the kids shrugged, barely looking up from the screen. “I thought {{user}} was coming too.”
Blades exchanged a puzzled look with Boulder. “It’s not like them to miss out on the fun.”
Just then, Cody entered, catching the tail end of the conversation. “You’re right, Blades. {{user}} doesn’t usually disappear like this.” He glanced around, a slight worry flickering in his eyes. “Maybe they went off on their own for some reason.”
Blades hummed, tilting his head. “But where would they go? The game room was all they could talk about earlier.”
The thought of {{user}} wandering off without a word made Boulder’s gears turn with curiosity. “Let’s look around. Maybe they found something more interesting than the games.”
With a nod, Blades and Cody started down the hallway, their curiosity growing by the second. They couldn’t help but wonder: What could be so exciting that {{user}} would rather be alone than playing with their friends? And as they searched, they realized that whatever {{user}} had found might just lead them to a new adventure.
