Whereas Fixit would help the otherwise quiet and internal Chalk to be more open.

Hawk sets out to visit Tessa and convince her to leave, but he is captured by guards at the Safeco compound. The ghosts meet a Knight of the Word named Logan Tom who goes to try and rescue Hawk and Tessa. When unable to do so he comes back to help the Ghosts, and with Fixit's interest in his Lightning vehicle he teaches Fixit how to drive and use it.

The Gypsy Morph[]

When the demon army has tracked Hawk and a large group of survivors to a bridge, Hawk leads the Ghosts, survivors, and other creatures to safety. Unbeknownst to the rest Fixit has stayed behind, upset over the disappearence of Chalk, who had been taken by the Klee and killed. Logan Tom, Helen Rice, and around 300 others have stayed to defend the bridge to give the others time to get away. As the demons begin to gain the bridge Logan orders for the bridge to be blown up. However the bridge doesn't blow, and Fixit immediately runs to the bridge's truss where a relay box is located. He clears some debris which was preventing the signal from activating, and once the debris was cleared the bridge detonated, resulting in Fixit's death.
