Hi.
Drift quickly hid the projector in his plating and faced the tiny human who had fallen.
"Who are you?" He asked, his hands straying towards his sword.
"A human girl? Isn't that obvious from my appearance? " The human said, getting up from the ground.
"SOYBEAN! Where are you?" The human and Drift turned around just in time to see a pair of minicons destroy an entire shelf and- upon sight- pounce on the human girl.
"Soybean?" Drift asked, slightly amused at the name of the human. His minicons came around the corner of the newly-made path with their weapons drawn, but instead of serious expressions on their faces, they wore uncertain looks.
"Stop running, cons!" Jetfire shouted at the two minicons who had tackled the human, at the same time the girl shouted loudly, "My name isn't Soybean, it's Soya!"
Drift tried picking up one of the minicons by its legs, but the human was up in a flash pushing the minicons away from him and snarling at him.
"Stay away from my family." She snarled, somehow water began to swirl around her.
"They are prisoners-"
"So what, you're going to imprison minicons around the same age as the other pair just because they had no one to teach and guide them thru what was right and wrong?!" The human- Soya- shouted at the swords-master.

"The human is right in a way, we were lucky to have met master Drift..." Jetfire whispered to Jetstorm.
"And have him teach us what we should and should never do." Jetstorm added, feeling slightly ashamed at the humans' words.
"We should show our appreciation soon someday." Jetfire said, Jetstorm agreed.
...
Soya was angry beyond words when she stopped talking. With the water swirling around her, she condensed it into extremely dense water borderlining rock-hard then shot it at the robot. She saw a nice dent in their armor and continued creating water missiles to chuck at the cybertronian.
It was then that the other minicons' stepped forward, soya's own minicons stopping them and engaging in battle. "You aren't going to hurt our Soybean." Lunarflare said, determined to keep the one human who became part of their family safe.
"Your master is hurting ours, why would we not attack them?!" The mostly black minicon told her. Lunarflare weakened her grip on the minicons' arms when she heard that, realizing that they were the same, they would do anything they could to protect their master. Turning to her human, Lunarflare said, "Soybean, please don't kill their master, it's us that they want, not you."
"They're not taking both of you away!" She gritted her teeth and fired more condensed water at the other minicons' master, him dodging as best he could while inching up to stop the human himself.
"Soybean, please, they're like us in a way. Please stop." Solarburst pleaded with her friend-turned-family, completely letting go of the red minicon with black highlights.

Soyas' water thinned out a bit, but she didn't stop fighting the huge cybertronian. Soya turned to her enemy's two minicons and asked them, "Will everyone here in the scrapyard leave my minicons alone if I do?"
The two minicons glanced at eachother before the black one said hesitantly, "...While we cannot speak for the rest of the team, Jetfire and I will not attack you or you're minicons."
When the minicon finished speaking, Soya thought for a minute then ceased her barrage of water on the big robot.
"Fine, but if I catch you two hurting my minicons... just be prepared to see your body from five feet away." She said eerily.
()
The two minicons that belonged to the big robot seemed unsettled after she said that. Lunarflare and Solarburst did a slight victory dance and- ignoring the others' discomfort- swept the other two minicons into it, Lunarflare taking the mainly black one while Solarburst took the mainly red one.
"Woah-!" The black minicon with red highlights cried out in surprise, Lunarflare just smiled and twirled around him.
"So, your name is Jetfire, right?" Solarburst asked the red one as she was thinking about what fast-paced dances she knew.
"Yes, what- ah!" The red minicon- Jetfire- said.
"Twister time!" Solarburst exclaimed.
After a few minutes Jetfire was pleading Solarburst for a break, "So dizzy..." Solarburst had done a series of twists and twirls with the one named Jetfire, while Lunarflare had slow-danced with the black minicon- much to his confusion. Lunarflare felt a bit bad for the minicon and decided to save him from her sister. Breaking away from the minicon she had been slow-dancing with, she said, "You're going to kill him sister, please stop."
"...Fine, but we were just getting to the good part." Solarburst pouted, Jetfire choked on air when she said that and gave Lunarflare a grateful look.
"Alright, alright, stop bullying Jetfire and... the black minicon, Lunarflare and Solarburst." Soya, who had been watching from the side, said.
"We are not bullying them, merely dancing." The twins huffed in unison.
"I do not believe that was dancing, it was more spinning until you couldn't." Jetfire said.
Soya walked over to the red minicon and whispered to him, "If you want, I can try and work with them to understand the difference between certain things."
Jetfire looked nervous, "Um, sure..."
"Alright," Soya stood up and turned to her minicons. "Ecli, ipse,-" "Hey!"- "We are going to work on definitions and what actually classifies as what."
"I thought we were over with being referenced as the eclipse twins." Lunarflare and Solarburst whined.
"Oh shush and come on," Neither minicon followed, "Or unless you don't want to recharge tonight-"
"No!" They shouted, hurrying after Soya.
"Then come on and improve your mindset when we get home."
"Why, Soybean? Why?" Solarburst said dramatically.
"Because I said so... and because somebot here wants to not be half-dead when you're done 'dancing' with them."
"...I'm not talking to you for a week." Solarburst said.
"I know, and I, frankly, don't care as you'll be talking to me tomorrow."
