The Techno and the Pretender
Chell hated her life sometimes, she silently sighed making sure the prosthetic jaw and legs where attached- properly this time- before daring to get off her bed, she wobbled and tipped banging her shoulder into the wall before righting her centre of gravity. Ever since the car accident two years ago Chell hadn't spoken, because her lower jaw had been torn away and voice box crushed. She lost both her legs as well but she couldn't let that keep her down, especially when she had the thing to study. She wasn't to sure what the thing was apart from a weird shard of metal with freaky markings on it, but since it made anything electrical near it go haywire it was worth investigating.
She picked her way across the room kicking over half finished inventions-she'd get back to them...one day- blue prints for more and spare parts before sitting in front of her desk tools at the ready to pick apart this mystery.
Mean while out side a girl was muttering a cybertrionian swear storm covering her head to try in vain to fend off the rain. Her name was Explode or Ex for short, quite a ironic name as her dad was Dr Boom his self Wheeljack and she herself was a bit ahh 'accident prone' in the lab. That was how she'd got her name a few minutes after being born she'd somehow made argon explode. It was still a mystery to her and her dad how she managed it. She was also the only (so far) Autobot Pretender and to her annoyance she'd been sent to investigate what seemed to be the radiation of a All Spark fragment. Hey she might be a Pretender but being honest Explode was sh*t at staying under cover. Hopefully all she'd have to do was get the fragment and get out.
A burst of light and energy from the apartment the shard was in made her swear more guessing this mission had got a whoooole lot more complicated.
Chell silently groaned rubbing her head after that...what ever it was. She rubbed her forehead the cool metal soothing her headache a little. Confused she looked at her hands green eyes wide in shock, her hands looked mostly the same but she now had metal claws instead of fingers, sitting up she saw her prosthetic legs had been replaced with bird like metal ones ending in five small claws. Scrambling a little Chell grabbed a mirror scratching the glass a little and her new jaw dropped. Her jaws was like the rest of these new parts metal and it reached up to her right eye that now seemed to be glass and was completely glowing green, her left eye was thankfully the same as ever.
She turned hearing someone almost brake down her door and stared at the intruder who was a girl maybe the same age as her with bright blue eyes and for some reason purple and silver hair. Her fashion sense was as weird as her hair style, a army jacket, Marvel bag, black top with a tiger on it and the strangest of all bright purple doc matins. She glared at the new comer asking with her eyes what the other was doing here.
Explode shook her head a little a little text screen popping up in her processor she was going to just close it when she noticed what it said.
'What are you doing here?' she blinked looking at the Techno-organic in front of her and sighed.
"It's a long story but if you come with me I'll be happy to tell you." She held out a hand to Chell who considered it for a moment before nodding and taking her hand.
...is it wrong I wrote this purely cos I wanted to do a Rule's fic? XD anywho Chell joins the Autobots with Wheeljack as her guardian and she and Explode become good friends. And yes Chell is a inventor (though she has bouts of forgetfulness and lazyness when it comes to finishing her inventions) and a Portal's fan XD her name was originally Shelly but had it changed to Chell.
And Explode, what can I say she's Wheeljack's daughter.
