Chapter 10
Ratchet groaned at the landing sight as the rest of the Autobots noticed that they had two femmes now in their ranks. Especially Ironhide found out they were his twins with Chromia. Ratchet was already planning how to take the mech's guns off line and a safe word to reactive them if need. He really didn't feel like spending his earth days repairing other mechs from Ironhides wrath. Ratchet was sure he would be a very very protective creator when he found out.
Back the forgottens base as Aryanna had called it. She came walking out of one of the many human sized doors that were part of larger door leading of the area where Prime and Barricade were left by Aryanna. "Well Barricade, Right?" He nodded. "Could I have your permission to shorten it a bit for my own sake to Cade if that is ok with you. If not I will continue to use your proper name. "
Barricade was quite taken aback by the fleshlings request, no she wasn't a fleshling she was a human of the planet that you are now on scrapball. His features were still change so they didn't look quite as menacing as well he had gone after the boy Sam to get the glasses. " If you wish to call me Cade instead that would be acceptable."
With a smile, Aryanna bowed her head to Barricade, "Thank you very much Barricade. I highly appreciate it. " She turned to Optimus, " I've been calling you Optimus our entire little road trip is that your name or just one the boy made up for me to call you?"
"My name is Optimus Prime I am leader of the Autobot. I am sorry for misrepresenting myself to you and I ask for your forgiveness and understanding. "
Aryanna smiled at the two robots. " You have it Optimus." Well I'll show you two around a bit." She walked towards on of the larger bay door. And the larger door opened letting them into the next large room. Barricade followed behind Prime. But he could tell that Optimus wanted to keep an eye on him so he was fine with it. "Aryanna stopped the middle of the room and waited for Prime and Barricade. They stopped not far from her. "Through that orange door is the vehicle wash bay with warm water and hot wax. If either of you want to "clean " up be my guest through the black door is several smaller bays well smaller than this big enough for at least three rigs parked side by side most of them some are smaller yet. The red door with the strobe lights on top and to the sides is the maintenance bay that we could fit at least 18 rigs side by side and still fit some in towards the back wall if some of the lifts weren't in the way."
Barricade spoke up first, "Why is everything referred to in rig length?"
"Sorry about that bad habit from running convoys and having to corral in a bunch of rig jockeys. And get all the trucks side by side for the night and stuff like that. And I had a bunch of tricksters that liked to see how many trucks and trailer we could fit throughout the base. It took several days to get them all out of here. Maybe its me but your demeanor and attitude seems to be really changing their Cade. "
