Chapter 144

Galaxy Convoy had always heard that there were three joints inside a Transformer's audio detector. Now he knew; he could count each painful one. Growling in pain, he started to bring up his optics as he heard two voices.

"So, how long till the booster wakes him up."

"It shouldn't be long, although considering that we had to freeze him in order to operate properly could lengthen the time."

They had to freeze him? What had happened? He remembered taking Tsunami to the restaurant, sitting down, and then getting attacked and gutted. Had his wound been that bad? His optics finally came online to get a full blast of operation room lights. He shut them off, swearing as he tried to raise his arm.

"Well, that wasn't very long. If you don't mind, I'd like to go clean myself up."

"Go ahead, Coby. By the way, good job!"

"Thanks."

Galaxy Convoy heard the door open and close as Coby left, and then heard it open again. "You can turn on your optics now, Soushireikan." He recognized First Gunner's voice now. "I've turned off the lights, and there's someone here to see you," the medic said.

Carefully turning his optics back on, he was greeted by a familiar face. "It's good to see you're okay, Tsunami," he managed to croak, still feeling very stiff.

"Well, for the most part," she chuckled, holding up her hands which were encased in big, glove-like casts. "I grabbed Nemesis Convoy's cannon to divert his shot and got badly burned. Some of my fingers and joints got melted together, and First Gunner had to cut them loose. Does he usually work without anesthetics?"

"For something that sensitive, he prefers not to so that he can make sure he doesn't cut in the wrong place," Galaxy Convoy answered, remembering when he had to have a similar operation. "Sorry about what happened."

"Don't worry, it wasn't your fault," Tsunami smiled. "Besides, now you have an excuse to take me out again. I may not like fighting, but I have to admit that that lunch was one of the most interesting dates I've ever had, and I think I'd like to go again. But this time, I'm choosing the place." Grinning even wider, she leaned over and kissed him on the forehead before turning and leaving. Galaxy Convoy felt his face heat up, and First Gunner kept his back turned until he was sure he had his laughter under control.

Finally, he did turn, sticking the Soushireikan with a needle and injecting one last booster program. "Don't worry about it, Galaxy Convoy," he said. "All females can be frustrating with their flirts, and if you don't believe me, ask Coby and Lori."

At that moment, Backguild came in, "First Gunner, is he awake?"

"You can see for yourself," the Medic replied. "Just make sure to help him as he walks until he can regain more of his mobility."

Helping Galaxy Convoy to his feet and supporting his weight, Backguild led him down the corridor. "We have a security breach, Soushireikan," he said. "Someone outside Planet Seibertron managed to access the Sky Dome's Mainframe. We're not sure what they took, but whoever they were got what they wanted, and from your personal classified files."

"My files?" Galaxy Convoy asked in surprise. Backguild nodded, and he growled, "Then its worse than a security breach. We have a 'Mole'. Send Chairman Dreadlock the information we have and request a Board of Inquiry to investigate. Also, I want you and Guardshell to see what files were taken, only the two of you. There's a reason why my personal files are classified. I know I can trust the two of you to find what was taken. I'll give you the codex, but you can't tell anyone else what is in there, not even if the entire Alliance threatened to Court Marshal you."

Backguid nodded, "Understood, Soushireikan. Also, we noticed on security cameras that Sonic Bomber followed Storm Gunner into one of the Training Arenas several hours ago. She's left, but he still hasn't come out. We know why, but I think you had better see this for yourself."

They reached the Arena and walked in. Galaxy Convoy's optic ridges rose in surprise. One entire wall of the room was burnt black, and a few familiar lumps in a crucifix position were in the center. Using the wall for support, Galaxy Convoy carefully made his way over, grabbed the back of one lump, and pulled Sonic Bomber's head out of the wall. The seeker had a dazed look to his optics, but he was awake.

"Now, what have we learned here?" Galaxy Convoy asked.

A goofy grin spread across Sonic Bomber's face as he replied, "That chick's so hot when she gets mad."

Galaxy Convoy was sure that if he turned his head, his own sweat drop would soak his face. Finally, he just shoved Sonic Bomber's face back into the wall and ordered, "Stay there." Then he turned and left with Backguild, both of them amazed at their friend's utter stupidity.
