Still no reviews? I can't improve if my awesome readers don't review XD Any way, you know the drill. I own nothing save for OC's, let the games begin.
Transformers: Maniacal Rising Chapter 3: The Iacon Academy part 2
After chasing Tapedeck's equally perverted brother Rubicon for the remainder of the class, Retro had to hurry on to a thankfully less physically tense class, Cybertron History. Not his favorite class by any means. Though he kept a relatively high grade, the class only put him into deeper thought. He wasn't born to see the fabled 'Golden Age' of Cybertron, but based on the information he received in this class it had to be a million times better than the world he lived in. Multiple Primes, Plentiful energon, a useful Counsel, possibly a lost network of space bridges leading to other worlds inhabited by Cybertronians, but the most nagging of all was the peace. No caste systems, no corrupt politicians, no tyrannical Primes, no rising revolutions, just piece and tranquility (With an occasional conflict with other alien races). Learning of said history also gave a bit of mystery to the planet, many questions unanswered.
When his history class was finished, he then made his way to his least favorite class. Mathematics. Though it was an essential class on Cybertron, Retro still loathed it. He was a strategic mastermind, but mathematics was nothing but numbers. Now way around it, no bending the rules, no back up plans, if you're not 100% accurate then your 100% incorrect. Cold but true.
-Retro would thank Primus that he had the rest period after the class. That's when students could relax for a bit before getting back to their schedules. He made a B line for the elevator so he could get to the top of the 5 story building he was currently in as he hated running into other students (he wasn't very popular and this resulted in getting trolled) but ended up in an enclosed space with Crossfire, Tapedecks somewhat shallow girlfriend. He remained silent as they waited until she spoke to him- "…..Hey."
-He didn't turn to face the red/blue femme as she might recognize him at a certain angle- "Yeah?" –He also prayed that she wasn't going to question his strange voice box (think of Soundwave)
-She may or may have not been facing him, Retro couldn't tell- "You think there's a war on the way?"
-He mentally sighed as she had no idea who he was and didn't seem to want to pick on him- "If there is a revolution on the way then war is sure to follow…."
"Well why is everyone afraid of the gladiators?"
-He turned his head ever so slightly in her direction- "Same reason we have all these battle classes…."
-That seemed to be all he needed to say as she was silent up until she arrived at the third floor- "Well, see you later." –He waited till the door closed until he chuckled- "We'll see…"
When he arrived at the fifth floor and took the stairs to the roof he wasn't surprised to see Tapedeck already there with a pair of binoculars as he spied on unsuspecting students. Retro tapped the pink medic on the shoulder as he jumped upwards slightly and spun around- "Scrap! I swear Miss Novastrike this isn't what it looks- ….. F***ing Retro!" -Now Retro could chuckle at his flustered partner- "I should've guessed you'd be the first one up here."
-Tapedeck regained his composure quickly as he gestured outwards towards the builiful setting of random colored figures scuttling across the wide silver/gun metal grey campus- "Best view in the academy pal. Nothing I can't see from here." –Retro tilted his head at his slightly depressed tone- "What's wrong Tapedeck? Someone dunk you in a stall again?"
-He shook his head- "Nah, I might have to break up with Crossfire." –Hands Retro another pair of binoculars (which he usually had in case his primary was confiscated….again. Retro looked in the same direction Tapedeck was and could see the red/blue femme he was referring to sitting with a heavy classed Autobot of black and silver colors holding her by the waist- "And?"
-Tapedeck turned to him- "What do you mean 'And'? I can't compete with a mech like that. He's getting further than I did and they aren't even dating." –Retros spark sank a bit at that. He hadn't lost a girl before and he'd never imagined that Tapedeck of all bots would have this problem- "….. Well, you said she was acting different anyway so-"
-Tapedeck interrupted- "So she was cheating on me. I hear the rumors Retro. I hear the rumors."
-Retro gave a blank stare through his yellow visor. The only way the tame Tapedeck was to let him rant- "Such as?"
-The pink mech sat down as he adjusted his binoculars- "Like that they actually… Did it… And that she talks about me in a bad way… Also that my colors are flamboyant and-"
-Retro would stop him there before he said it, sitting next to him- "Who cares what color you are? Your double the mech anyone else is wearing it with such pride." –Tapedeck would merely shrug as Rtero continued- "Besides, so what if she isn't into you anymore? If she really likes this mech more than you then let them do there thing. I'm sure you'll find another femme…. Maybe one that'll take you seriously?"
-Tapedeck would chuckle- "Right, no use claiming what isn't there right?... Thanks Retro. Your advice stings like a waspinator swarm but it's the noble thing to do." –The two stand as they here another ring from the academies bell- "Alright, let's get to class. I can't wait to share my newest invention with ya!" –pats Retro on the back a little more forcefully than intended and said White mech comicaly disappears over the edge of the 5 story building- "Scrap!" –Looks over the edge to see Retro hanging onto one of the flag poles-
-The white mech angrily yelled at the chuckling medic- "You aft hole! What the Pit is wrong with you!?"
-The pink medic waved a hand at him in a dismissive way- "Don't get your transistors in a bunch! You can fly!"
"Screw you!" –Tapedeck laughed the whole way to the elevator as Retro leapt downwards and used the hover mods Tapedeck gave him, stopping himself from hitting the unforgiving ground as he ran to class. Totally unaware that he was being watched by five mechs, one quite a distance from the other four as they dispersed after exchanging inaudible chatter. Said distant black and blue mech would speak in a rather quite voice to no one in particular- "This could spell trouble…. Hmm…."
–Another pair would approach him. A red mech and a magenta colored femme, the red bot speaking out- "Riptide! We're gonna be late for class again if you don't hurry!"
–Riptide would cooly look towards him- "Little bro, don't forget which of us is the fastest." –The red mech would stomp his foot angrily to the ground as the femme chuckled- "Don't forget which of us is the 'Little' brother either!"
–Riptide would chuckle at his older brothers anger began to show- "I'm only kidding Drench." –The shorter red mech (Drench) would cross his arms- "Let's just go already."
Alright, that's it for this chapter. The next one will have more action I assure you. I just prefer to separate talkative chapters from more active ones. XD PLEASE REVIEW and check up my new blog at for previews of events and characters ye to come (heh heh)!
