Hey everybody! Thanx for the reviews! I'm sry that I haven't updated for a
while but my computer caught a virus and I'm still trying to get it to
work, even after we got it fixed..it's soooo slow now. I don't know what's
wrong with it, but anywhoo, expect delays between chapters. A special
thanx goes out to Pivot who worked to spread the word that my computer had
a virus! Thanxs so much! ^_^
And now, on with the story-
Chapter 16
Emrial Can Take Welding Class Now
"Man, I can't believe you would actually let me fall of a cliff!" Carlos fumed as he and his friends exited the warp room.
"Hey! I said I was sorry! I just wasn't thinking straight then!" Hot Shot tried his best to plead for forgiveness from the human.
"You sure bet you weren't!" Carlos crossed his arms and continued walking away from the yellow bot.
"C'mon Carlos! Give him a break! He said he was sorry!" Alexis grabbed the boy's arm.
Carlos smiled mischievously. "I know. I just wanted to see how long I could make him grovel."
"What? Why you little brat!" Red Alert tried to hold his comrade back, but to no avail. The transformer wrenched free from his grip and proceeded to chasing the earthling.
"Whoops! Oh man! We better get out of here!" Carlos called out to Grindor, who came to his rescue and gave him enough speed to stay in front of the enraged transformer.
Optimus chuckled. He saw the smile on Hot Shot's face and knew that his soldier was just playing with the kid.
Red Alert also could not suppress a slight laugh as he made his way to the med bay doors.
"Where are you going?" Optimus suddenly called out to him.
Red Alert turned around slightly. "Just to check on Emrial and to let her know we're back."
The Autobot leader nodded his consent and the blue, science-bot made his way towards his destination.

Emrial sat up, leaning on one elbow. She groaned as she gripped her head with her other hand. "What happened?" She asked of her mini con friend who stood smiling, admiring Emrial's handiwork. "Hmm?" Emrial caught Chopper's gaze and she turned around, gasping.
"What on Earth?" She examined Trice. His armor was renewed. His colors shined brilliantly one again, the lights of the room glistening off of the sparkling emerald-green and silver. Yet Emrial's heart was saddened as she looked into the mini con's eyes and realized that though his body was fixed he was not yet online.
Emrial looked up at her other mini con. "Did I do this?" She gestured to Trice.
Chopper smiled knowingly behind her mask as she nodded her head, yes.
"I don't understand." Emrial righted herself and stood for a moment before falling back unto her knees in exhaustion. She examined her hands. "How?"
"You do not yet need to know. The time will come when all will be made clear. For now all you must know is off you power." Chopper spoke in a singsong voice.
Emrial's mouth dropped open in amazement. "You can talk! I knew it!" She jumped up and grabbed the blue mini con. Together they swirled around in joyous celebration, though they didn't exactly know what for.
"What on Cybertron?" Red Alert exclaimed as he entered into the room. He watched the dancing duo for a second before they realized that they were being watched.
"Red Alert!" Emrial quickly stopped and tried to regain her composure.
"I don't want to know." He shrugged as he began to walk away.
"But you must!" Emrial called out to him to return.
"Must what?" He turned around.
"You must examine Trice. See if you can bring him online." She pleaded with the transformer.
Red Alert sighed. "Look." He said. "I've already looked over Trice a bazillion times. Why do I have to do it again, right now?"
"Because." Emrial moved so the bot could see the restored 'con. "Because everything else is fixed now."
Red Alert came dashing up beside the med bed. "What the? How the? Who?" He stood, his mouth gaping. He swung his astonished face over to look at Emrial. "What in the universe happened? Did you.?"
Emrial nodded her head. "Yes. I did fix him, but don't ask me how because I still don't know myself."
Red Alert stood speechless before running behind a computer console and began to set up to run some more tests of Trice. He let the girl and Chopper to climb into his hand and he took them to a waiting area where they could watch.
"So, what else can I do?" Emrial excitedly turned to Chopper as soon as they were alone.
"Find out for yourself." Chopper answered.
"Okay." Emrial closed her eyes and concentrated. Her hands began to glow. Then slowly a silver liquid began to pour from her fingertips. She opened her eyes, watching with amazement as the metal formed into whatever she was concentrating on. Soon there stood a miniature model of Chopper.
Emrial picked up the figure; it was cool to the touch. "Wow." She examined it further. "It's exactly like you, down to every little detail!"
She handed the statue to Chopper. "What else?"
Chopper pointed to some tin cans that had collected in the corner.
Emrial held two together. She watched with amazement as her hands began to glow and the metal on the cans began to melt where she touched them, welding them together. She then threw the cans down and aimed her hands at the whole pile of cans. She thought hard, and soon the green glowing shot from her hands and towards the cans. Wherever she aimed her hands the metal melted, then fused together with the other metal around it.
"Cool." Emrial examined her hands again. She looked up at Chopper. "I can weld!" She exclaimed.
Chopper laughed heartily, and to herself thought, "Oh, you can do much more than that." She smiled in anticipation of what was to come.
