Wow! Only about five days into the story and I have over one hundred reads! Primus! So, this chapter's gonna be a little different from my previous two. How many of y'all noticed that KO was nowhere to be found during the experiments? Well, you'll see what he was doing.

So what do you guys think so far? How about Breakdown? Review please! ^.^

Lights... Computer... ACTION!

I felt really bad for tricking Electra, but I had no choice. It was either that or Megatron would try to dissect her. I can only pray to Primus that she'll forgive me. I've grown rather fond of her.

"Query: Why are you not with the experiment?" Soundwave's message so close behind me made me jump.

"Primus, Soundwave! Is it necessary to sneak up on me? One of these cycles I'll end up having a spark attack!" I picked up two cubes of low-grade Energon. "And to answer your question, the human Electra needs sustenance to survive just as much as we do."

Soundwave rubbed Lazerbeak's head as the Cassette perched on his shoulder. "Query: How does the experiment not react negatively to Energon?"

I paused, my CPU racing. 'This can easily be used to my advantage.'

"Soundwave, to better answer your querys I will need to access the databases."

Said mech only nodded.

I growled softly, up to my helm in data pads as I searched for the ones containing data on the Ancients.

"Aha! Found you, you little glitch!" My faceplates twisted into a triumphant smile as I found what I was looking for. I quickly put them into subspace before hurrying back to my lab.

Upon entering the lab, I noticed that the lights were out. I flipped them on and froze upon hearing a whimper.

Then I noticed Electra. Her face was pale, and her breaths were coming in gasps.

"Electra." I rushed over to her, undoing the bonds and helping her onto a sick berth. "What happened? How did you grow to our height?"

The femme curled into a little ball and tried to explain. "B-Breakdown... Tests... It h-hurts..." She closed her optics tightly.

I scrambled to grab my scanner, fearing the worst. A quick check of the screen confirmed my fears. Electra's body was failing. Fast. Then I remembered the data pads.

"Electra, I can help you, but I need you to stay awake, alright?"

A nod was my answer.

I quickly searched the first pad for transformation with no luck. The same went for the second. Finally, I found something.

"Alright, here we go."

Electra looked at me in confusion. "W-what ah ya talking 'bout?"

I showed her the words I had translated into English. "Just follow the instructions."

She read the screen and nodded. Her servos crossed at her Spark as she muttered the chant. I was stunned as she chanted in Cybertronian.

A soft glow coated the femme. When it dimmed, I smiled.

"Electra, you were about to permanently offline from the combination of a Cybertronian and human form. Now you have those two forms separated and can change between the two as often as you like."

The femme's electric blue optics widened in surprise at her new look. She appeared to reach my chassis, with a green base coat accented with silver and black. A white orb - an opal, as I recalled - similar to the one around her human form's neck rested in the center of her chassis. Her All Spark Insignia stood out on her left shoulder plate, glowing a soft white.

"Yah mean to say that I can switch between this and mah human body anytime?" She asked, incredulous.

I paused before answering. "Well, the theory of transformation between organic and inorganic forms is vastly... Unknown. I would suggest that for your own safety you stay in this form."

She nodded, a tiny smile gracing her faceplates.

"Thank yah, Knock Out. Yah're real nice for a Deceipticon."

I chuckled. "You're not so bad, either." My grin flipped upside-down as a thought crossed my mind. "What will happen when the others realize what's happened to you?"

She paused. "I... don' know. I mean, I can try and escape, but I don' know how far I can get."

"Electra... I've done a lot of things I'm not proud of. I've offlined mechs. But I've never done anything as cruel as try what Breakdown did. My guess is that order came straight from Megatron. If you allow me to, I'd like to leave with you. The Deceipticons once meant my entire existence. Now I could care less if they were wiped out."

The emerald-colored femme nodded. "How can we get out undetected?"

I grinned, transforming into a car. "I go out every night and race. Get in."

"I cannot believe that worked!" Electra cheered, hopping out from my driver's seat. She twirled around with a laugh. "We're free!"

I looked around, confused. "Be that as it may, do you have any idea where we are?"

She stopped dancing about and looked around with a frown.

"Shit. I have no idea."

I know this is a smaller chapter than my others, but it's an important one.

That'd be just my luck: I'd escape only to discover I have no clue where the Hell I am. XD

Anyway, please please please review! I wanna know if I'm doing good or if I suck!

Brofist!
