~*~Third POV~*~
Rose set Blueflame on a bed and pulled a blanket over her shoulders.
"Ratchet, I need armor to place what's been broken."
He was wide eyed the moment we came in, but he didn't argue with the enraged femme medic.
"Hold still…" She says cleaning some of her newer wounds.
She winced and holds back her whines. Rose's shoulder joint was repaired, but still soar. It didn't keep her from continuing her work on the young femme.
Blueflame took a deep breath and held it as Rose cleans up her wounds. The older medic helped her with the larger wounds. Blueflame vaguely remembered him from the last time she was in the Autobot base.
Ratchet gave her the plain, silver armor to replace her broken armor. As Rose continued to treat her wounds, Ratchet leaves.
"Come on, you can change into your new armor. We can get it painted soon." She tells her gently.
Rose led her to a small changing room.
"Just leave your old armor in the corner. It will be melted down and recycled later." Blueflame looked unsure but enters the room.
"I'll wait outside. Just shout when you need something." Rose said.
~*~Blueflame's POV~*~
I quickly strip out of my tattered, dirty armor.
Then I put on my new, sleek, silver armor. I felt… A tad uncomfortable.
It made me a lot skinner and gave me more curves. I sighed and slowly open the door an enter the main med bay.
~*~Rose's POV~*~
I could see she was uneasy with her new armor.
"I'm sorry its not like your other armor, but it's all we could get you for now." I apologized.
She only sighs.
"Alright, come on, let's get ya some color." I offered a small smile.
"Okay…" She said softly.
I guided her to a small room with silver walls.
On the wall near the door, there was a panel with a touch screen pad on it.
"Just select what you would like." I tell her as I leave to let her choose her color.
I patiently waited for her as she was getting her colors done.
"Is she doing well?" Ratchet walked up to me.
"Yes, but after what happened today she needs to rest." I say.
"I understand… I had a room opened up for her. She'll be safe and comfortable there. It's close to medical bay, so if someone tries to be stupid, they can deal with me." He holds up his wrench.
I chuckled, "Thank you Ratchet. That will mean a lot to her."
"I will do my best." He nodded.
~*~Blueflame's POV~*~
I slowly looked at the touch screen pad, scrolling through the options.
I found what I wanted quickly. Plain glossy jet black armor.
Then I choose electric blue flames to cover over parts of the armor. I bravely chose to leave my dark purple Decepticon insignias to go on my wings and chest.
I click enter and step back and close my eyes. I could feel the wet paint being sprayed over me, covering my armor.
I stepped out and lowered my wings.
"Hey there. You remember Ratchet right?" Rose asked me.
I nodded slowly. "Yes… Vaguely."
Rose gives me a weak smile and steps out of the way to reveal the older medic.
"Hello again Blueflame." He nodded.
I nodded back and shrank away more.
"I'm very sorry for what happened here, we will do our best to protect you from the others." He says.
Hearing this made me relax, I smiled lightly. "Thank you…"
"Now if you would not mind, please sit on a brenth so I can run some quick scans." He walked up next to me and began to check over my patched up wounds.
Ratchet finished his scans. "Everything seems to be in order."
He sets his scanner down and smiled softly to the younger femme.
"Now, both of you need to rest." He tells us.
"Remember your room is close to med bay. If you need anything Blueflame, you can ask me at any time." Ratchet tells me.
I nod. "Okay. Thank you Ratchet."
Rose walks up to me. "Here, let me show you to your room. I don't want you to have to go through any trouble on the way there." She says.
"Thank you… I never knew Autobots could be so nice… After my mother was killed… I just sort of envisioned all Autobots were like him. I explained.
"It's alright, a young age like that can confuse anyone, and your father must have been devastated." Rose says sadly.
"He was and he never forgave the Autobots for what happened." I say.
"It's alright now, just rest. Tomorrow we can talk about what to do." She touches my shoulder.
I nod. "Thank you."
She smiles again before she lead me from med bay to my new room.
"Remember if you need anything, call for Ratchet." She reminds me.
"Thank you…" I say for the hundredth time.
I entered the room and shut the door and lock it tightly behind me. I explored my room for a minute before exhaustion kicked in. I had been a long… A long HORRIABLE day…
I slowly walked up to my new bernth and curled up amongst large, lavish pillows and a giant fluffy blanket. I sighed softly as I closed my eyes and drifted away from the world.
~*~Rose's POV~*~
I went to my own room and fell onto my bernth.
"Rose… What are you doing?" I asked myself.
"Take care of her…"
I shot up and gasped heavily.
"Why won't you leave me alone!" I hissed standing up quickly.
I had been looking for this femme that haunts my dreams. I never found anything about her… All I could gather was she looked like me, color wise at least…
But since I first met Blueflame all I could dream of was her horrible figure in the rubble…
I quickly look at the time and sighed. It was too early for anyone sane mech to be up, but better now than later. I better get Flame up for energon frist before the others wake up. Less trouble that way.
I knocked loudly on her door. She wouldn't be happy about being up so early, but I'm sure she'll change her mind when she find the other won't bother her this way. And with Ratchet on our side, the other's will have to fear his wrench of doom if they tried anything funny.
~*~Third POV~*~
Blueflame jolts awake to a loud knocking on her door.
"Come on Flame, we need to get some energon in your system!" She hears Rose shouting from the other side of the door. She slowly tumbled out of her bed and walked up to the door in a sleepy like daze.
"Hi…" She said tiredly.
"Good morning!" Rose said vibratntly.
Blueflame was bewildered at how this femme was so happy and awake at the ungodly hour they were up at.
"You look wide awake." Rose joked as they walked to get energon together.
"Clearly…" The younger femme gruffed.
"You always this damn happy so early in the morning?" She asked the older femme.
"No." Rose answered simply.
How would you explain to a young femme that you were dreaming of some ghost from the beginning of the war. If she was even a ghost…
Rose was sure she was now losing her mind.
Blueflame sighed and sat in the Rec. room.
"Mind grabbing me a cube of high grade?" She asked as Rose ran to get energon for the both of them.
"High grade?" Rose nearly twisted her ankle in surprise of the younger femme's request.
"You are too young for that! How long have you been able to drink High Grade?" She asked the younger femme.
"Since I was… 8 or 9 I guess… As a Decepticon, we don't really look for Medium or Low Grade. Most of the mechs were heavy drinkers. But don't worry, I can handle my High Grade just fine now." Blueflame answered.
Rose was not happy with that kind of information, she may be 18 now, but High Grade is not meant to be an everyday thing for younglings. How she wasn't sick was a mystery to her.
Hesitantly, Rose handed her the High Grade.
It really upset her that the younger femme was able to drink it as if it were just Mild Grade energon.
"You're really lucky you didn't get sick." Rose comments sipping her energon.
"Hook took care of me… He's our medic." Blueflame says.
"He a good friend?" Rose asked curious.
"He's a good mech." Blueflame makes a face after finishing her energon.
"This isn't as good as the stuff back at home." She says scrunching her face.
"Magnus was never a High Grade supporter, what you have my dear is the bootleg version made by the Lambo Twins. But I tell ya, it's better than nothing." Rose chuckled.
"You drink?" Flame asked surprised.
"I maybe a medic, but I'm not a stiff like Ratchet." Rose laughed as the look on the younger femme's face.
"I can't imagine you going near it." Flame says with a smirk.
Rose chuckled, then when the sound of mechs heading for the Rec. Room she grew serious.
"Let's get out of here, before the others show up."
Blueflame nodded, not liking the way she got serious.
