A few Cycles later Shadow was standing in a large room full of exotic cars. To her left was a Ferrari Enzo, a Saleen s7, and an Aston Martin. To her right a Lamborghini Aventador, a Bugatti Veyron, and a GTbyCitroën. She spotted the GT as soon as she has walked into the room. "Where did you get that" she exclaimed excitedly, "it never when into production and this is the concept model!"
"We have our resources" said a board sunstreaker "Just pick a car already."
"Fine Ms. Drama queen, I won't waste your preciouses time." She said sarcastically as she walked over to the GT and scanned it. Transforming she asked Sunstreaker "how do you change the colors?" "Do I have to have someone manually paint it or what?"
"Just think about what you want your paint to be and the color nanites will do the rest."
Shadow took a moment and concentrated, seconds later the plain white of her body had changed into a gradient of Kelly green, starting at her nose, to a deep midnight black with a slight green shimmer. Black tribal flames spewed from the jaws of two dragons heads on her doors; spreading over the fore fenders and up the hood. Green beams of light lit up the floor in front of her as her headlights changed to a emerald green. The red of her tail lights darkened into a dark smoked out green. To finish off the look she gave her wheels a mat black finish, and tinted her windows nearly all black.
"Do we got a mirror around here somewhere?" a voice broke Sunstreakers thoughts as he appraised his ruined paint. "I would like to check out how I look."
"Ya over here" annoyance evident in his tone. He stood his ground until shadow had joined him, contemplating on how long it would take to fix the damage. Moving out of her way he couldn't help but admire her paint.
"Wow this is wicked!" shadow exclaimed excitedly, "This is exactly how I imagined it to look!"
"Nice taste" Sunstreaker chuckled, amused by her reaction. "Now to see how it looks out of alt mode." "Your first time transforming back might take some concentration but it will soon become second nature."
Again shadow concentrated, but this time not on her paint, but on transforming. Panels started to shift, slide, shrink, and grow, until she was fully transformed. She stood in front of the mirror, seeing herself for the first time. "Honestly, this is pretty sick" She exclaimed. A strange elation ran through her, which to anyone else should be quite strange. Most humans, errr, former humans would be terrified at this moment. As she gazed into the mirror bright green optics stared back at her, surrounded with a faint cyan glow. She was lean and sculpted, nearly the same as her human physique.
"So Sunshine, when do I get to test out my new wheels?" She chirped playfully as she turned towards Sunstreaker. To flustered to complain about the nickname, much less say anything at all, he simply turned towards the door and motioned for her to follow.
