Author's Note: So first off sorry for the long wait between updates but I had problems with the first two of these four stories. The second two are probably the better ones of this set and they are also the requests from Hittocere enjoy and I own nothing but Tallie and Allie. Next update should be sooner hopefully!
Tallie's List-Rule 30
Duct tape doesn't fix everything
Tallie whimpered slightly as she glanced at her arm. It was twisted at an odd angle and pain shot up it every time she tried to shift the limb. "Slagging 'Cons testing sonic weapons," she hissed under her breath hoping that Jazz wouldn't hear here.
"You alright Tallie?" a voice called a moment later and the girl let out a sigh of relief.
"I'm still in one piece but I think I broke an arm," she said. "What about you Jazz?"
"A few severed energon lines but nothin too serious," the mech responded, making his way through the trees to her. Tallie slipped her good hand in her pocket and pulled out two quarters, a pack of gum, and a small roll of duct tape. She glanced at the roll of tape and let out a slightly hysterical laugh.
"I guess duct tape can't fix everything," she said, standing slowly with another whimper of pain. Jazz picked her up carefully and slowly placed her on his shoulder, trying not to move her broken arm. "At least Ratchet can't blame this on us when we get back," Tallie said, laughing weakly.
"Oh trust meh," Jazz said. "He'll think of some way ta blame it on us; I'm sure." Tallie laughed again as Jazz made his way through the trees towards the base where hopefully the two Decepticons with the sonic cannon were not attacking.
Allie's List-Rule 25
Disembodied voices get punched
Allie had been practicing with her gift that morning and now that she had a good grasp of how to use it she decided it was time to have some fun. Slowly she faded out of view and made her way around the base looking for a likely victim. Finally she found one in Frenzy. The minibot was wandering around humming to himself when Allie whispered in a dark and sinister voice, "Death is coming for you." The little 'Con jumped and glanced around him, then shook his head and continued walking, not humming anymore. "Death is just around the corner," Allie whispered and the minibot looked around nervously again.
"Who's-there?" he asked and Allie let out a malicious laugh. This was more fun than she thought it would be.
"Death lurks around every bend. You cannot run from it," Allie hissed as she followed Frenzy around a corner.
"Not-funny," Frenzy said nervously. "Stop-playing-nasty-jokes."
"Who're you talking to Frenzy?" a voice asked by Allie didn't bother to look up and see who it was. She was too busy trying not to laugh.
"There's-a-voice-following-me," Frenzy muttered angrily. "Keeps-talking-about-death." Allie couldn't help it then; she snickered. Moments later a fist slammed into her face and blood was suddenly gushing from her nose.
Trying to stop the blood flow with her hands Allie looked up to see Soundwave looking right at where her face would be if she was visible and Frenzy laughing. "What the frag Soundwave?" Allie snapped before taking off down the hall, not giving the communications director time to come up with a suitable punishment. "Bloody noses really ruin the effect," she muttered as she darted into her room to sulk, slamming the door behind her. "Why does he always have to ruin my fun anyway?"
Tallie's List-Rule 11 (For Hittocere)
Painting Sunstreaker a different color while he recharges is not good for your health
Rain pounded on the roof of the base and thunder rumbled somewhere off in the distance which cause Tallie to jump and then let out a heavy sigh. The base was full of wet, bored people and alien robots since it had been storming all day. The seventeen year old glanced at the buckets of purple and brown paint that she had been planning to use as a splatter painting outside today. The rain had ruined that plan. That was when an evil and all too tempting idea began to turn around in her brain. Sunstreaker had just returned from patrol only to sink into recharge and he was always going on about his paint job. What if she changed his colors a little bit. Tallie giggled, mulling the idea over. It only took a few seconds for the idea to become too tempting to pass up. She had to try it.
Tallie pulled out a couple paint brushes and took the buckets of paint with her. On a whim she also stuck a silver paint marker and stuck it in her pocket. When she found Sunstreaker she opened the paint and went to work. When she was finished a couple hours later Sunny's gold paint had been replaced by a coat of brown with patches of lavender through it. As a final touch Tallie signed her name in small script on his upper arm in silver paint marker. Then she dumped the buckets and brushes into the nearest trash and went to her room to wait. It didn't take long. Sunstreaker's yell of surprise and rage echoed through the base. Tallie giggled, put down the book she had been pretending to read, and went to the hallway to survey her work. The paint had held up well and she had to fight not to laugh like some of the soldiers were doing.
Sunstreaker spotted her and asked, "Why?" The girl thought for a moment and then decided that there wasn't any point in lying about whose fault it was. After all she had signed her name.
"I was bored," she replied simply. Seeing the looking in the narcissistic mech's optics she slowly began backing down the hall.
"I'm going to put you in a tree somwehere and leave you there you little slagger," the mech snarled and Tallie turned to run.
As she dashed down the hallway she muttered, "Is he serious? He does know that it's pouring out doesn't he?" As if to prove her point thunder rumbled right overhead and it began to rain harder. Tallie dashed around a corner and darted behind Jazz's leg, gasping for breath as all eyes turned to focus on her. That is until Sunstreaker and his new paint job came into view. Will Lennox's shoulders shook with silent laughter and Epps let out a bark of laughter when he saw the vain mech. Ironhide chuckled, Ratchet looked disbelieving, Jazz snickered, and Optimus was struggling not to laugh as Sunstreaker looked around the room for the hidden Tallie. Tallie was thankful that Prowl wasn't here right now. The no nonsense mech would have ratted her out in an instant.
"Did you need something?" Optimus asked after a moment.
"No," Sunstreaker said and then went back out into the hall. Tallie gave in finally and giggled.
"You did not really do that?" Ratchet asked, his expression something between amusement and annoyance.
"Yes," Tallie said and both Epps and Lennox snickered.
"You gonna be followin me all day then," Jazz asked, his optics glinting with amusement.
"Probably," Tallie said with a sigh before giggling again.
"Why exactly are you hiding from him?" Ironhide asked, his voice full of mirth. "After doing that you deserve whatever he can come up with."
"He threatened to put me in a tree," Tallie snapped. "It's pouring outside! Besides he should have known that was coming from someone after all the time he spends talking about his paint job and pranking others with 'Sides."
At that everyone started laughing full out. As rain pounded on the roof the base echoed with laughter.
Allie's List-Rule 21 (For Hittocere)
Running around yelling "The British are coming" isn't allowed
It was raining and the drops were making a metal chinking noise as they hit the roof. Allie sighed and tossed her Chemistry book to one side of her room, fed up with both her homework for school and the rain. She was ready to do something fun. Allie closed her eyes in an effort to think of something fun to do and realized that the rain hitting the roof sounded like hoof beats. Her mind drifted to a history lesson and a wicked smiled crossed her pretty face. Moments later she was on her feet and darting out her door yelling, "The British are coming!" She shot down another hall and screamed, "The British are coming!"
She pounded into another hallway and into the common room where Barricade, Skywarp, Starscream, and a few other mechs were hanging out. "The British are coming! The British are coming! Run for your lives," she screamed before running out into the hall, hearing the tell-tale thud that meant at least one of the mechs had glitched. Cackling like a wicked witch she darted down another hall yelling," The British are coming."
She pounded into another hallway and then shrieked in surprise as someone picked her up by the ankle. She let out a steady stream of curses until she had to stop, red in the face from lack of air. That was when she identified her captor. Soundwave. The girl gulped at the look on his face. Her guardian stormed into the communications office and opened a closet, tossing the rambunctious seventeen year old inside and slamming the door. A moment later she heard the definite click of a lock. She has just been locked inside a closet. She wasn't breathless for long. "Soundwave this isn't funny! Soundwave," the girl yelled as rain pounded on the roof above her. "Soundwave!" The irritated mech didn't answer her and she let out a heavy sigh.
"At least it isn't the brig," she muttered as she sat down on the floor. "And the roof doesn't leak." She sat in silence for a moment, beginning to sweat in the heat of the closet. "It's hot in here," she muttered, fanning herself. "Soundwave! Hey Soundwave let me outta here!"
