HI! Thanks to you ALL for so many awesome reviews! I just noticed I haven't done any disclaimer thingy recently, so here it be: I doesn't own da Transformers except fer Caterwaul. (I enjoy using bad grammar though. Mwa haha ha! Take THAT, education!) Please enjoy this chappy-ter!
"The ship!" Caterwaul rejoiced, then covered her mouth in case any of the other 'Cons were nearby. She wasn't sure what they'd do once they found her. She decided to wait a bit before allowing them to see her.
But, in any case, she had to get to that ship! Maybe she could hide on the roof and listen in to see what had been going on in her absence. But how to get there…?
'Hmm…' Caterwaul thought, 'If only I had a rocket-pack or somethhh…' Her thought trailed off as an idea popped into her head, and she grinned.
Using her sharp, center tail-blade, the Decepti-cat made a small cut on her front right leg. This caused a few drops of energon-blood to trickle out, and Caterwaul slowly moved her leg forward.
This made a small, thin trail of energon-blood form on the dry desert ground. She made another small cut, on her left front leg this time, and let it drip onto one end of the trail, forming a tiny puddle.
Caterwaul repeated the process until there was a long trail of energon-blood, and a decent sized puddle of it at one end. When she decided that it was good enough, Caterwaul looked around for a big, flat sheet of rock.
She couldn't find a big enough one, so she retched up a large amount of metal. This she smushed into a flattish blob, about 3 feet across, and roughly circular shaped.
After it had hardened, the feline placed smaller stones around the puddle of energon-blood in a circle, then placed the platform of metal on top of them.
Afterwards, Caterwaul sat atop the metal slab… and realized that she didn't know how to ignite the energon-blood trail. Phooey.
She tried smacking her tail against a rock to hopefully produce a flame, like in those human movies about 'camping.' No good.
She remembered that something small and light would go on fire if exposed to enough direct heat and sun. She pulled out a small tuft of fur and placed it on the ground. Oh wait. She had no magnifying glass. ARRRGHH!
By then, the Decepticon ship had moved, and Caterwaul had to run as fast as she could (while dragging the metal slab) to catch up. She managed to run a little ahead of it, so it'd take a bit longer for the ship to pass by her.
Caterwaul was, by now, getting tired. She suddenly remembered another thing that produced fire; metal against metal! She tested it just in case, by flicking one claw against her leg. It sparked! WOOHOO!
The Decepti-cat ran a bit farther, then made another energon-blood trail and puddle. This made her feel a bit drained, as well as still tired, which was irritating. Then she had to set up more rocks in a circle over the puddle again.
Finally, Caterwaul sat on the flat metal platform, waiting for the Decepticon ship to float into perfect position. Being very experienced in this, she was able to do this aiming quite accurately.
When the ship was in range, Caterwaul flicked her claws above the start of the energon-blood trail. The claws sparked slightly, igniting the trail. Caterwaul curled up as much as she could as the fire reached the puddle of energon-blood under her metal seat.
There was a marvelous explosion, which propelled her upwards and toward the Decepticon ship.
As she soared upwards, Caterwaul mentally cheered, 'I'm a geniuusssss!'
Sorry not much actually happened here. I hope ya liked it anywho and weren't tooooo bored.
