Challenge 39: Mental
Cliffjumper looked over as he and the other mini-bots entered the rec room; they saw Alpha, Omega, Kit and Hammertread watching wrestling while Jade, Cable and Beacon were walking over to the group. The mini-bot glanced over and whispered something to Brawn.
"Leave 'em alone Cliffjumper. They can't help it they can't decide which side to be loyal to." Brawn replied, purposely saying it loud enough for them to overhear, a sneer on his face.
Hammertread, the big, olive colored smart aft tank, didn't bother with a reply. He simply stood and cracked his knuckles, smirking like "Go ahead, start something." His optics had a look in them that also said, "Don't mess with me. You do, and you'll be the mess…on the wall."
Alpha heard them and growled. That was the last straw, right there. There was no way she could take any of those blasted mini-spies calling her friends and her brother traitors; she didn't really care what they called her. The femme stood up from where she had been sitting on the floor with her brother and daughter, watching a match between HBK and Edge and turned slowly; her optics glowed a demon green color as she stood in front of Hammertread.
A chair flew and hit Cliffjumper in the head. "Say something again," The psychic swore, "And so help me, the next one'll defiantly be bigger and heavier."
All three minibots stood up simultaneously. They would usually back down, but not this time. Cliffjumper looked at Brawn, who cracked his knuckles back.
"Whattya gonna do, beat us to death with chairs?" Cliffjumper quipped. Jade eeped softly and started for the door.
Alpha snarled and picked one up. "I may just do that!" She yelled at the minispy.
"Seems a few of you are smart enough to know when to run away." Brawn looked over at Jade and friends, who stopped and turned around.
"Let's just go, forget what they said." Cable eeped from behind the jet.
Jade narrowed her optics and glanced at Hammertread, who grinned back. "We outnumber them." She noted out loud, where they could hear.
"And Prime's gonna have out heads if we start a fight!" Cable replied nervously.
"Yeah, whattya afraid of?" Cliffjumper called.
Windcharger looked away. He didn't like where this was going. He didn't want to be in a fight, but couldn't very well walk away without his friends holding it against him.
Alpha and Omega used their powers to make a table hit them. "We're Autobots, ya troublemaker. ALL of us. And you think otherwise...well...you're wrong." Both growled, their optics/visor glowing brighter. "Now leave 'em alone." Alpha glanced at Jade and the others, telling them to boot scoot and boogie out of the rec. room and go get Prime before the fight got out of hand.
Brawn tossed a chair back, but Alpha managed to break it before it got anywhere near the group of friends. "We're not wimps, like you, and we're not backing down this time."
Hammertread started forward. He knew how to scrap mechs his own size easily, and they knew that, too. "Hmm. This isn't gonna even be a challenge." He noted, looking up and down the trio, making Windcharger gulp.
"Get Prime." Jade whispered to Beacon.
The ex-courier turned and slipped out of the room. "Speed don't let me down." He had once been a message carrier, and hoped he could still be that fast in finding Prime, before something went seriously awry.
"Guys." Jade said out loud. "Stop. You have a problem with each other, talk it out like mature Cybertronians, not trying to beat each other into submission like children."
"Oh, this coming from you, Little Miss-" Cliffjumper didn't even finish that for, before he could, the leg of a chair ended up hitting him upside the head. Alpha snarled.
"Finish that. C'mon, I dare ya."
Cliffjumper spat some energon out of his mouth and started to say something else, but paused when he saw every piece of furniture being lifted into the air. He glared at the twins, but Omega simply smirked and answered for his sister. "Go ahead…call us wimps again…call us something else, ya minibot, and see what happens…" He ran a black finger over the end of a floating chair and smirked.
The two sides didn't move or speak for a while, for fear of either starting something or finishing it. Well, truth be told, I'm not quite sure why Hammertread, being the most violent of the group, didn't say or do anything, but that's just him. By the time one of the many Autobots had decided to voice something, Prime walked into the doors at that exact moment.
Prime blinked as his optics gazed over the floating furniture, the two sides glaring laser daggers at each other and Kit sitting on Hammertread's shoulders, holding her freeze gun out threateningly. He sighed. "Alpha, put the furniture down." He said, looking over at her. "Our budget won't support paying for another entire set of furnishings…" He mentally facepalmed as the furniture hit the ground right where they had been picked up.
Jade gave the Autobot commander a thankful look just as Cliffjumper, Brawn and Windcharger noticed him. "They started it!" Cliffjumper exclaimed.
"Uh-huh, I'm sure they did." Prime replied in a disbelieving tone as he took survey of the 'battle ground'. He heard Alpha say something under her breath in a snarky tone, "Can we at least keep the furniture out of it, please?" He asked upon seeing bits of the smashed chair around Alpha, the bits of the other chair around the minispy trio and the table leaning on its side against the wall.
Well, at least he had stopped it before it had gone too far…
Suddenly, Cliffjumper's startled yell made the Autobot leader look up. He saw the red mini-bot hovering in mid air and Alpha's optics a sickly green. "Alpha-"
"Apologize. Now." Alpha snarled at the red mech as she continued to hold him in the air. Omega snickered from where he was beside his sister.
"Do as she says, CJ…an angry Guardian of Balance isn't smart…."
"Put Cliffjumper down, Alpha." Prime deadpanned.
Hammertread snickered as Kit, who was still sitting on his shoulders, laughed out loud. She hugged her uncle's head and Hammertread glanced up at her, knowing exactly what the kitten was thinking. He gave Alpha a look, but the femme was already smirking. She shrugged and, thinking like the Decepticon she had once been forced to be, dropped Cliffjumper, not too gently, mind you, on his HEAD!
"Done." Alpha giggled, crossing her arms as both hers and Omega's optics went back to normal.
"C'mon, guys…" Cliffjumper rubbed his head as he stood up. "Let's get out of here…" He grumbled and stomped out of the rec. room, Brawn and Windcharger following. Brawn growled and his voice was heard down the hallway saying,
"Mental, all of them…"
"Well of course I'm mental!" Alpha laughed, "I'm psychic! Duh!"
Kit cackled and nearly fell off of Hammertread's shoulders, but the boxy olive tank managed to catch her as he chuckled a bit. Omega snickered and hugged his sister's shoulders.
"That you are, sis…that you are…"
