More vorns passed, and now the younglings were in mid-creation, and Razer guessed in human terms they would be teenagers. She remembered about Jack, Miko and Raf suddenly, and wondered how much they had grown up. Maybe they had mates now with their own sparklings; she wondered if the war was finally over. I hope it is.
"Razer, do you know where Wheeljack is?" A voice behind her asked, making her jump.
Turning around to face Ratchet, she replied, "No, I have not. He might still be working in his lab."
Ratchet scowled, grumbling something too low for her to here. Raising an optic ridge, she asked, "What did he do this time?"
"He broke some of my stuff," Ratchet grumbled, slightly pouting.
Shaking her helm, she said, "Wish I could help you, but I'm helping Megatronous and Soundwave find a job. Starscream has already got himself a part time job helping out the scientists with simple jobs, while Orion is set on going with the simple life and being a data clerk." She chuckled.
Ratchet chuckled too, saying, "Have fun with Megatronous and Soundwave; I best get going, so I'll see you later. Till all are one"
"Till all are one," Razer repeated, watching as Ratchet left. Smiling, she walked to the lounge room where Megatronous and Soundwave were, both looking impatient. Pushing the thought of when Soundwave would get his mask, she announced, "Have you two picked out a part time job?"
"Soundwave: Affirmative." Soundwave replied, and Megatronous nodded.
Sitting down on a chair, she asked, "So, what have you picked?"
"Soundwave: communications."
Razer smiled. "Communications will defiantly suit you; I can already see you as being in charge of a communications organisation, so I'll see if I can get you into one of the good ones. What about you, Megatronous?" She knew the answer, and she knew how she would answer it. She had thought this scene over and over again since Megatronous was a sparkling.
Megatronous looked away, then looked back towards her, and Razer smiled encouragingly. "Gladiator."
Razer smiled, then nodded. "As long as you promise not to offline. I would also like you to start training with me before you go to Kaon and become a gladiator."
Megatronous looked at her with wide optics. "Wait, really? You will let me become a gladiator?"
"Of course; it's not my place to choose what you should do. If you want to be a gladiator, then I will support you; I will always support all of you in whatever you choose. But before you do become a gladiator, I will train you first whether you like it or not."
Megatronous nodded, then shot towards Razer, hugging her tightly and repeating over and over, "Thank you thank you thank you…"
She laughed as he let her go then said, "Now, all we have to do is convince Ratchet and Wheeljack."
Megatronous groaned in dismay.
~0o.o0~
It took solar cycles for both of them to finally agree, Ratchet saying he'll have to change to the Kaon medical bay and that Megatronous can't stay there too late, which Razer and Wheeljack agreed with, and so did Megatronous.
Which meant Razer would have to teach Megatronous how to fight, and offered for the others to join and Ratchet and Wheeljack also offered to teach them other techniques in fighting.
Which leads to now where Razer was currently using her sword to defend herself from Megatronous' attacks. But anybot could tell he was holding back.
"You're holding back!" Clash. "Grow a back strut and fight me like you mean it!" Clash.
Megatronous shook his helm. "I can't do that!" Clash.
"Then when you get in the ring, you'll offline within a click!" Clash. "Pretend I'm an opponent, OK?"
Megatronous hesitated, and Razer took the chance to lightly swipe at his chest, leaving a good scratch and making him glare at her. She just smiled cockily at him, saying, "They won't go easy on you Megatronous; it's kill or be offlined."
She went to swipe at him again but with more force, but he blocked it, sending in a quick jab of his fist to her torso. Grunting at the stab of pain, she grinned at the horror stricken mech and said, "Better."
Now, it was her turn not to hold back. Using his shock to her advantage, she kicked his legs from under him, Megatronous falling on his aft with a grunt and deactivating his sword. Not giving him a chance to recover, she put the blade to his neck, only digging it in to slightly hurt. Narrowing her optics at him, she said, "If I was an opponent, you would be offlined." She deactivated her sword. "Now, get up. Let's go again."
Megatronous nodded, standing up again, and Razer took a few steps back to leave enough room between them. They had decided to practice in a unit the humans would call a gym. All the bots were staring at them or trying not to, while other bots came closer to watch the intense training.
Megatronous activated his sword, nodding at Razer in affirmation to continue with the lesson.
