Chapter 18

Ratchet let Sunstreaker come back in the med bay the next day while Iris was curled up and asleep on the berth with Mudflap and Zak. It had taken Ironhide several human hours, but he'd finally convinced Ratchet not to destroy Sunny with those slagging wrenches. However, that didn't mean he wasn't going to hurt the golden mech. Ratchet made the check-up as painful as possible and hit the new arrival with a wrench every chance he got. One time, Sunstreaker screamed a little too loud and woke up Zak and Iris. Ratchet called Sideswipe over a private line while the two humans were still shaking the drowsiness from their systems and said silver mech came and retrieved the two almost-awake humans, leaving behind one recharging. Mudflap had slept through it all, never once stirring; it would take nothing short of a zombie attack to wake up the tired red 'bot.

"Who should we prank this time?" Sides asked as he skated down the hall with the two humans in his arms. "Skids again! I've got a better prank today!" Iris declared. "Really? A prank better than mine?" Sideswipe pretended to be astounded, but they both knew the other prank hadn't been very good, compared to what they could usually do. "Yeah! We paint him "barbie girl pink" while he's recharging and then tie him to Jolt's berth," Iris offered. Sideswipe thought for a moment. "No, Jolt would know it was us...how about Jazz's berth?" Sideswipe concluded. Iris laughed. "Perfect!"

With the three of them, it took only about five minutes to paint Skids pink, and then it was simple for Sideswipe to carry the smaller Autobot into Jazz's quarters and tie him up and gag him. A few minutes later, Skids was stirring from recharge and Jazz was heading to his quarters with Prowl behind him. Sideswipe and the two humans tried to look like innocent by-standers, but were epically failing. "Do they look suspicious to you?" Jazz asked as he started typing in his code. Prowl shrugged. "Don't they always?" Jazz was about to reply when the door slid open, the two stepped in, and Jazz froze. "What the Pit?" the music lover exclaimed.

Prowl stepped around Jazz and ungagged Skids. "Explain. Now," the SIC ordered. "I came out of my recharge cycle here! It must have been Mudflap! He's the only one who knows I like Jazz!" Skids exclaimed. "Walk in, and follow my lead," Iris whispered to Sideswipe. Sideswipe obeyed while Iris called, "That's not true, Skids. You asked Sides to tie you up in here, remember?" Skids looked horrified. "No I didn't!" "Yes you did! You said, 'Sideswipe, tie me to Jazz;s berth because I want...' Now what were his exact words, Sides, 'his slagging sexy body'?" Iris said innocently. "I-I didn't!" Skids insisted. "He also sai he wanted Jazz to be his spark-mate," Sideswipe cut in, ignoring Skids.

Iris elbowed Zak gently, silently telling him to say his line. "Oh yeah!" He said something about 'interfacing,'" Zak finished. Prowl was clearly furious as he cut Skids free and then pulled Jazz protectivly close. "Stay away from Jazz," Prowl ordered. Sideswipe suddenly perked up. "He just comm.d me and said he has no intention of listening to you." That was the final straw. Prowl's logic seemed to shut down as he charged his cannons and growled, "You have five seconds to start running." Skids ran out screaming like an earth little girl with Prowl chasing him, and Sideswipe, Iris, and Zak finally burst into fits of laughter. Jazz looked at the three and smirked. "He never said any of those things, did he?" "Nope!" Iris replied. "...Hm, that's funny. I don't think I'll be telling Prowl, though."


Haha! I love being mean to Skids! Review please!
