Chapter 4 Side swipe
There was training exam to show how much the young soldiers from all the units had learned. "Okay all the soldiers who got a failing grade on any of their exams will get a retest this weekend." High-strung the head of training said. "Aw man!" The soldiers said. "Don't you AW MAN! ME! Your lucky you get a second chance." He said. "Well it's your own stinking fault for not studying." Demolisher said. Then he saw Side swipe. "Hey Side swipe did you get a failing grade?" Demolisher asked. Side swipe nodded. "How many?" Snow cat asked. Side swipe lifted one digit. "Just one that's not so bad." Ironhide said. "Yeah I failed 3 of my tests," Warpeace Side swipe's friend/rival said. "I thought Hot shot and Wheeljack were helping you study, didn't they?" Demolisher asked. "Yes they did but I'm so stupid." Side swipe said. "No your not." Hot shot said. "Yeah you sometimes just fail if you don't study," Wheeljack said. "Yeah besides the questions retest are easier." Snow cat said. Then Side swipe hid his face in his hands. So he began to walk home.
He saw Blurr. "Hey I heard you got failing grade on a test." Blurr said. Side swipe hid his face in his hands. "Come on it's just a test." Blurr said. So he began to walk back to the base with Blurr. Aw man I promised my family I will become a great soldier and I failed a test and I am so stupid. OH! Everything is spinning I can't see straight. Side swipe thought. Then laid his head on Blurr's back. Blurr looked over his shoulder. "What did I make you feel bad?! It's just a test! Besides you're just going to give yourself a fever again." Blurr said. Side swipe fell over Blurr caught him and felt his forehead. "Oh no! You have fever!" Blurr said. "I'm alright." Side swipe said. "No you're not! I've got to get you back to the base!" Blurr said.
"Yep that's a fever alright. In my medical opinion as medic you're sick." Red alert said. "I'll be okay I have to train when Hot shot comes back." Side swipe said. "No you're not. Slag! You're always concerned when one of your teammates is sick or injured but you need to think about yourself right now!" Blurr said. Side swipe went to his room. "Of all the times to get a cold." Side swipe said.
Blurr began to think about his friend. "Sweet spark you want to help your friend Side swipe don't you?" Silvershot asked. "Yeah." Blurr said. "Well whenever I was sick my grandmother would make me energon coolant soup and give me some oil." Silvershot said. "That's a great idea." Blurr said. So Blurr took some energon and coolant and oil and fixed it up for Side swipe. He gave it to Side swipe. "It was Silvershot's idea." Blurr said. "Thanks Blurr your a real friend." Side swipe said. Then Hot shot, Wheeljack and Ironhide came in. They came in. "Hey we have to train where's Side swipe?" Wheeljack said. "Oh you see Side swipe's been in bed with a fever since he came home." Red alert said. "He's sick?" Hot shot said. Then Ratchet came in. "Hey I heard Side swipe is sick let me take look at him," Ratchet said. "I heard Bubby was sick," Stellar said. "Hello Stellar." Hot shot said. "I was examining her unit when you called and it looked like she was about to cry so her unit leader allowed me to bring her here." Ratchet said.
Then they came into Side swipe's room and Ratchet was giving him shot. "Be careful unlike the rough shot you gave me last time." Thundercracker said. "Don't scare them Thundercracker." Ratchet said. "I can barely feel it." Side swipe said. "But Thundercracker said it really hurt." Stardust said. "I did that on purpose because of his constant bellyaching." Ratchet said.
Good news Side swipe passed his retest.
