(Note: Heatwave and Blades are conjunx enduras (aka married partners in Cybertronian) in this AU ^^)

It was a busy day in the city, Griffin Rock. The town a few years back had transformed into a busy city, tall buildings and much more technology than last time. Also, the rescue bots are now teachers/mentors to the future generations which brings us to today. Heatwave had become a headmaster and the rest were teachers. Optimus had his occasional visits but overall was gone for missions. The new rescue bot recruits (Hot Shot, Whirl, Hoist, Medix and Wedge) were studying in the academy to be future rescue bots

Currently, Heatwave was busy using a simulation to put the recruits in a situation. In the simulation, they were tasked to save 2 “people” stuck in a truck that was halfway off a cliff. Whirl and Medix was flying overhead the truck while Hot Shot and Wedge tried to reach the “people”. Hoist was trying to use his winch to pull the truck back on the cliff. Heatwave was monitoring the group when he felt his walkie-talkie crackle. He answered it subtly, trying not to pull the recruits’ focus on the fake emergency situation…

Heatwave: “Hello, anyone there, over?” he spoke over the walkie-talkie

YOU’RE BLADES!
