Just a reminder to you guys that'd it would be nice if you post a review every now and then. Personally, with this story, I don't really care if it's positive or negitive (I personally have my own negitive thoughs about this story)

Trial and Error
"DIGIT!" Jackie roared as she studied herself properly and saw the transformation that taken place on her.
Beside her, Inez and Joseph her both breathing heavily, realizing just how close they had gotten to getting transformed. Suddenly, a loud crackling erupted from the Transformitron itself, making Digit jump and step back from the controls.
"That's one less NIC to worry about." Inez noted, eyeing the smouldering slot of the NIC Digit had just used for the transformation.
"With only about fifteen more to go." Digit estimated.
"It was a waste of a perfectly good NIC!" Jackie yelled, struggling to her feet.
"Why? We would've destroyed them in the end." Inez said.
"I got turned into a rabbit!" Jackie persisted, her long ears flopping into her face. "It's a waste!"
"At least you didn't get turned into a little itty-bitty mouse that spends every moment of it's life in fear of getting stepped on, and is so little, no one can hardly hear you!" Matt was heard retorting, still sitting on what remained of the transformation chamber, and still a mouse.
"That's enough arguing!" Joseph shouted, trying to enact the role of the mediator. "So the cyborg made a mistake! Everyone does! But arguing over it won't help anybody to fix it!"
"Joseph's right." Inez agreed. "We still have a chance to fix it."
Jackie grumbled something inaudibly, and reluctantly went over to join Matt on the transformation chamber's roof.
"You won't be a rabbit for too long, Jax, I promise." Digit said, working with the controls. "I think I've got it this time."
"You'd better Digit." Jackie replied angrily, her black fur standing on end, like a cat's.
"Relax Jackie, how do you think I felt when I found out Delete turned me into a mouse?" Matt inquired as Jackie curled up into a ball next to him.
"Let's just get this over with." Jackie said.
Digit nodded, and activated the Transformitron once again.
Kerzap!
The unconscious form of Buzz turned into a donut. Everybody stared at it for a few moments.
"Well, we're getting closer." Digit said, and began working with the controls once more.
Kerzap!
Delete turned into a full-fledged lion. He let out a subconscious snort, making everyone back up in fright, fearing the cyborg might wake.
"Digit, you're not making things any better..." Inez said.
"I know, I KNOW!" Digit roared, frustrated, as he violently worked with the controls for the fourth time. "I'm doing the best I can here! Hacker didn't exactly design this thing too well!"
"Speaking of Hacker..." Inez continued as the Transformitron activated again.
Kerzap!
Hacker turned into a rat.
Digit slapped his face in anger as Matt fell over laughing.
"Please tell me we can leave Hacker like that!" he said in-between laughs. "I mean, what better form for him is there?"
A loud clang echoed out as Digit slapped the side of the Transformitron. "If this isn't going to work this time, I'm going to take a sledge hammer to this thing." He vowed, working with the controls for what he hoped would be the final time.
Kerzap!
At first, nothing seemed to have changed. But then the whole hanger bay started to shake, and a cracking sound rang out somewhere in the far side of the room.
"Uh-oh." Digit said.
"Uh-oh what?" Jackie asked, hopping over to the cybird in concern. "What's uh-oh? Is it really that bad?"
"Yeah, it's that bad." Digit assured her, studying the wobbling structure of the hanger bay. "I think I transformed something in one of the walls."
"What's uh-oh about that?" Inez asked, stepping over.
"Well, it's destabilized the entire structure, which means it's all going to collapse at any second." he explained.
"Uh-oh." the rest of the Cybersquad said.
"We've got to get out of here!" Inez said, scooping up Jackie in her arms, and starting to run for it.
"Not if I have anything to say about it!"
Everyone turned, and saw that in the confusion of the last few moments, no one had noticed Hacker regain consciousness, figure out what had happened, and perched himself next to Delete's ear. Seeing that he now had everyone's attention, he stuck his rat head inside Delete's ear and roared...
"WAKE UP!"
Delete the lion woke instantly, jumped up onto all fours, and whether or not if he had registered what had happened to him and his companions and that there were intruders in the room was never made clear, for he ran at the nearest person to him, which was Inez, who held Jackie and Joseph in her arms.
With a yelp, Inez ran away from Delete, who was hot on her heels. Digit, in panic, turned around and began working with the Transformitron's controls again, apparently hoping to use it to fix things. Hacker, in all of the confusion, had gotten thrown off of Delete, and landed next to Matt, frozen with fright. Looking the villain up and down, Matt realized just how much bigger and stronger Hacker the rat was than him.
"You're mine!" Hacker said, and lunged.
