Road Trip
It was a regular day at base. No 'Cons to scrap and no missions to run. All in all, it has been pretty boring, and boring did not sit well with Miko.
"Hey, do you guys want to go on a little trip?" Miko asked innocently.
"What trip is it this time?" Arcee asked, already regretting her question.
"Oh, nothing. Just a little ghost town Bulk and I passed by," Miko said.
"Really? I don't remember seeing it before," Bulkhead stated.
That's because you were too frightened to take a look," Miko said bluntly.
"That's not true!" Bulkhead protested. But the tone in his voice suggested otherwise.
"Wait. There is a ghost town around here?" Bumblebee asked curiously.
"Yeah," Raf answered slowly. Just an old, abandoned coal mining town that is off limits." He said the last part with a glare directed at Miko. "Besides, I don't think Optimus would let us go."
Hearing his name, the great Prime's head tilted up. "Is anything wrong?" Optimus asked.
"No," Miko said quickly. "But is it okay if we could all go on a trip? I just think it would be great for you guys to learn more about our culture and species," Miko stated sweetly. She knew that would get him on board. If she knew Optimus, it was that he was always trying to encourage his team to learn more about humanity. What better way then examining an old town?
"I suppose it wouldn't hurt. It would be good for us to learn about the ways of the humans." Miko grinned, aware that she already had his permission "I am okay with it," Optimus answered finally.
"Yay!" Miko shouted with glee. "Alright then, let's get going!"
"I did not say now," Optimus said, halting Miko in her tracks.
"Yeah, and why would you want to go to a ghost town that isn't haunted?" Arcee asked.
Miko smirked. "Well it's not exactly haunted," Miko said. "Not all ghost towns are haunted."
"But then why is it called a ghost town if there aren't any ghosts in the town?" Bumblebee asked.
Miko stared at Bumblebee, her face blank, before Raf explained what the yellow autobot said. "Well, it's because no one lives there anymore," Miko answered slowly. "Sometimes there are ghosts, and sometimes there aren't. It just depends on what happened at the town."
Everyone in the room stared at Miko in confusion.
"Just let them go," Ratchet muttered to Optimus. Miko's prattling was really starting to grate his nerves. "I need the peace and silence to work. "Not stories about ghosts floating around."
"I'm in," Bulkhead said. He did not want Miko to think of him any less then the brave Wrecker he really was.
Jack sighed, but had to admit that exploring a ghost town did sound like fun. "Me too," he said.
Arcee looked at Jack with a slight frown. "If Jack is going, so am I," she stated.
Miko slided over to Bumblebee. "Hey, I heard Raf is going. Do you want to come Bee?" Miko asked.
"Oh no, I'm going," Bumblebee answered quickly.
"So I take that as a yes?" Miko asked hopefully. When Bee nodded, Miko smirked. She then slided over to Raf who was on his computer. "I heard Bee is going. Do you want to go?" Miko asked.
"Really? I thought Bee wasn't going," Raf stated in confusion.
"Will you just answer the question!" Miko hissed, annoyed. She wanted to leave before Optimus had a chance to change his mind.
Raf stared at Miko warily, then sighed. "Okay then. I'll go."
Miko then walked over to Optimus who was talking to Rachet, She put on her best innocent face before tapping his large pede. "Everyone's ready. Can we please go?"
Optimus smiled. He was well aware what Miko was doing. "You have my permission." Beside him, Ratchet sighed in relief at the thought of actually getting some work done.
"I take that as a yes… right?" Miko asked hopefully.
Optimus nodded.
"Sweet!" Miko exclaimed, running over to Bulkhead who had transformed into his car form. She intended for this to be a trip they would never forget.
