Authors note: I thought that since it is Holloween I would post a little early this week.
"In three months I start college," Angel told herself. She walked up to her uncleMax and told him, "I need a vehicle to drive, I already have my license, and everyone in the family had ambulances of their own, so can we please go to an ambulance dealership this weekend, look around and perhaps test drive a few?" Angel pleaded with her puppy dog look. A look even her uncle can't resist.
"You know I can't say no to that look, alright let's go!" Uncle Max said enthusiastically as he got his keys.
A few minutes later Angel got out of her uncle's ambulance and looked around at the variety of ambulances. She couldn't believe how many there were. There were ambulances as far as the eye can see.
Angel got to test drive three.
The first one was to stiff felt like sitting on bricks.
The second one was too soft which caused her to sink into the seat.
The third one was PERFECT! Angel could reach the pedals and the steering wheel, that is when she noticed the insignia. "You are a unique one aren't you?" Angel mumbled to herself, rubbing the steering wheel.
Her uncle and the saleswoman walked up to the ambulance she was in.
"I've never seen that ambulance, let me check my inventory". The saleswoman told them.
"No need to do that ." Angel cut in. "I can take it off your hands now for $6,000," The saleswoman thought about the offer for a minute before she replied. "Deal, it's yours".
They shook on it. Angel was ecstatic about her purchase.
After Angel and her uncle arrived at their home, "I will leave you to bond with your ambulance" Uncle Max said as he headed in to prepare dinner.
The rest of the family was in the house so it was just Angel and her vehicle.
"Now what am I going to name you ?" Angel asked herself tapping on her chin.
"Hmm..., Oh I know, Ray Chet."
She was about to head in, that's when she heard a voice,
"Good to make your acquaintance Angel. My name is Ratchet. Although you can call me Ray if you would like." Ratchet told his charge.
"Pleasure to be in your acquaintance Ray "Angel told her vehicle.
"Uncle, I'm going for a drive ok?" Angel told her uncle.
"Okay, be back before dinner, have fun and be safe," he replied.
Angel hopped into Ray and the duo took off down the road.
"I'm going to take you somewhere where you can see me in my bipedal form. Is that ok?" Ray asked Angel.
"I'm ok with that, I promise not to scream," she replied.
"Alright, if you say so." Ratchet replied skeptically.
They arrived at an abandoned hospital. Angel hopped out and stood a safe distance away so Ratchet could transform. After Ratchet transformed to his bipedal form he stood 20 feet tall and looked down to Angel.
"Wow" is all she could say.
"You don't seem frightened." Ratchet said as his charge as he bent down to her level. Angel was so shocked to see Ratchet in his true form she just shook her head silently.
Ratchet and Angel spent a few hours to get to know each other.
The time seemed to fly by. Angel looked at her watch, it showed 7:00 pm- dinner. "Oh my, it's dinner time I need to get home." Ratchet transformed and told her to hop in.
A few minutes later they arrived at Angels house.
"Sorry, I'm late Uncle Max." Angel said she raced into the house. Before she did though she asked Ratchet, "Can we do this again sometime, so I can meet your team ?"
"Sure, how about the weekend ?" Ratchet asked his charge.
"Sounds good." Angel replied as she headed in for dinner.
To be continued...
