Chapter 11

Training room 6

The walk was very short. They arrived at the training room and found The Dreads and Barricade waiting. Shockwave handed Amelia over to barricade and then left without a word. Barricade then walked to the other side of the room and put Amelia down. Amelia stood and waited as Barricade ordered one of the drones in the room to stand in front of her.

"Attack him." Barricade said to Amelia

"Me?" Amelia asked in disbelief

"Go!" Barricade growled. Without a second thought Amelia nodded and looked up to her opponent standing motionlessly in front of her. She searched for the weak spots, spots that were exposed, but found none.

"How?" Amelia asked desperately.

"Attack her." Barricade said darkly to the drone. Amelia looked up in shock. The drone was coming straight at her and she had nowhere to go. She merely avoided getting trampled and run around the 'Con in an attempt to confuse it. Barricade watched his pet in amusement but it started to get boring after a while so he decided to make some "Changes" to make the fight more interesting.

"Stop." Barricade ordered the drone. The Drone stopped and Amelia collapsed on the ground with exhaustion. Barricade nodded at one of The Dreads who then took something out of his subspace. Amelia looked up at the Dread known as Crowbar and immediately stood up. Crowbar dropped two razor sharp, human sized blades on the ground in front of her and then walked back to his formers place. Amelia looked at the blades, then at Crowbar and Barricade and back at the blades again before picking them up and looking them over. Both of the swords were thin and curvy and very sharp, there was a glowing blue line going up the middle of both of them and they were surprisingly light. Amelia had done all kinds of sports and one of them was sword fighting, it had been a long time since she last practiced though. All at once she felt herself flying through their air and crashing into the wall. The drone was on her tail again and had just kicked her to the other side of the room. Amelia got up and rubbed her lower back.

"You want a piece of me!" she shouted at it in a venomous tone of voice.

"I'll give you some!" Amelia growled as she ran up to the Decepticon. She had lost one of her swords when the drone had kicked her but the other she still had in her hand. When she was at the drone's ped's she jumped up with her powerful legs and latched herself on to a piece of its armor with her free hand. From there she climbed up the drone's body until she near its head. She was clinging onto what seemed to be his shoulder plate and stabbed the drone near his spark chamber. The drone cursed something in Cybertronian and fell to the ground with a heavy clash of metal parts. Amelia had jumped of the 'Con when she felt him falling and had landed near its head. Before the drone could regain its senses, Amelia ran up to it and sliced its head off with her one blade. She watched its optics as they went dark. Her first kill. She had never killed before and she had to admit that it felt good. She looked up at barricade. He nodded at Amelia with approval. Amelia then jogged to where her second sword had fallen. She had noticed the small notches on the back of her armor and smiled to herself before slipping her swords into them.

"Impressive." Starscream said as he walked out from where he had been watching the small battle. Amelia looked up at him and waited.

"Starscream, what do you want?" Barricade growled at the second in command.

"Nothing, I was just wondering what a human was doing in the Decepticon base." Starscream replied.

"She is mine Starscream. I caught her in the desert on patrol." Barricade answered, annoyance creeping into his voice.

"What is youngling like her doing in a training room? Shouldn't she be in a cage?" Starscream asked snidely as he looked at Amelia.

"Megatron needed a spy and she seemed the right for the job." Barricade said looking straight at the seeker.

"Where is the other one?" Starscream asked as he took his optics of Amelia and met up with Barricades.

"Soundwave is training her to be a hacker. The two humans will be a team and help us by getting into the Autobots base. Lord Megatron is still working on the plan, so ask him if you want to know more." Barricade said to the seeker. Amelia listened intensely and almost jumped up with glee at the mention of her, still alive, friend. Starscream left after a few minutes of questioning the bounty hunter and everything when silent. Just then Amelia stomach decided to growl, loudly. Amelia looked at her stomach and placed her hands on it, and then she looked up her master. Amelia had accepted the term "Master" quite a while ago, Barricade punished her if she refused refer him to that. Barricade looked down at his pet, he had done some research about humans and knew that she was hungry. Barricade picked Amelia up and brought her back to med bay where he placed her on one of the examining tables. He then walked to one of the walls and pressed a code in to one of the panels and the wall split open to revile a stash of all kinds of things. He picked something up from the top shelf and walked back to the berth he had placed Amelia on. Amelia looked hungrily at Barricades hand and wondered what he had in store for her. What she got was not what she had expected. Barricade dropped a large clump of fresh meet right in front of her. Amelia, under normal circumstances, would have never even thought about eating a raw clump of meat like that. But this was not normal and she was extremely hungry. Amelia took her helm of and placed it on the ground and walked to the clump meat. She could smell the blood and when she touched the meat with her hand she felt that it was still a little warm. Amelia crouched down next it and dug in. She finished all of it within ten minutes and smiled at the feeling of a full stomach. White she was eating Barricade had gotten a bottle of water for her and she drank all of it as fast as she could. When she was done she sighed and lay down, the day had been tiring and she had not slept for a very long time and now seemed to be the perfect moment to power down for a few minutes.
