While you've been waiting, I've been creating the cover art for this story, hope you like it when it's done!
"Okay, be sneaky-" Soya was interrupted by Solarburst.
"Slipstream!" Solarburst shouted as loud as she could, darting ahead with no idea where she was going.
"Sister, wait!" Lunarflare ran after her. Soya sighed, not even a minute after they entered the junkyard and Solarburst was already testing her patience. She ran in the direction that her minicons went, silently hoping nothing happened to them in the span of time it took for her to reach the two trouble-magnets.

"Solaria, get over here!" Lunarflare shouted at her sister.
"I wanna see Slipstream, so no!" Solarburst yelled back, colliding with a minicon she had never seen before as she rounded a corner.
"Ow." She rubbed her head before realizing who she bumped into. "Oh, hello. I'm sorry, but I've never seen you before around here." Solarburst said to an orange minicon.
"Um... F-Fixit to Bumblebee, HELP ME!" And with that, the minicon wheeled away from Solarburst quickly.
"I wanna join the game of tag too!" Solarburst shouted as she ran after the clearly terrified minicon.
"Help!"
...
"Do you hear that brother?" Jetstorm asked during their break from dueling. Drift had gone somewhere in the scrapyard, Slipstream and Jetstorm weren't very worried about him, after all, their master could hold his own against a decepticon and it was the scrapyard that he was in.
"The distant sound of Fixit yelling for help? yes, I do hear it." Slipstream said.
"He is either in danger or overreacting to one of the cats that come and go."
"Let us hope it's not one of Steeljaws' cons." Slipstream said, following the sound of the screams. Bumblebee, Strongarm, Grimlock, and Sideswipe were out on a mission to capture a con, they wouldn't be back anytime soon so they'd have to help Fixit get away from whoever was attacking him.
The shouting got louder as they got closer to the origin of the yelling. "-Get away- way- way- way- ack!" It sounded like Fixit had gotten tackled by something, the two students peered around the final corner to see an orange-and-red minicon furiously poking Fixit's face with her finger.
"Solarburst?" Slipstream said in confusion. Jetstorm realized that the Fixit and the eclipse twins hadn't met yet, nor had he met Soya other than watching her as she had looked around the junkyard.
Solarburst looked up and spotted the duo. Running over, she practically threw herself at Slipstream, absorbing almost all of the impact with the ground.
"Hey!" Slipstream said, trying to wiggle out of the other minicons' iron-like hug.
"You may be taller than me, but you aren't escaping my mini-attack." She said.
"You call that an attack? I've seen you do better, Solaria." Lunarflare commented as she came around a corner, Soya close behind. Solarburst just snuggled her head into Slipstreams' shoulder and then fell asleep. Lunarflare helped Slipstream out of her sisters' grip and apologized for her sister's behavior.
"No, its- it's fine, really. I... I quite like your sister, if it's alright with your human friend, may I come over sometime?" Slipstream could feel his face heating up as he spoke those words. If embarrassment could kill, he'd be dead.
...
"Ooo~h, somebot likes Solaria, what'll happen next? Kissing under the mistletoe? Or maybe- ow!" Lunarflare stopped teasing Slipstream when she got smacked in the back of the head by Soya, who was not looking happy at Lunarflares' words.
"Apologize before I make you write- with an undersized pencil- one hundred variations of 'I'm sorry' on one page." Soya's eyes glared at Lunarflare, silently daring her to disobey.
"I... I'm sorry." Lunarflare looked- and sounded- truly apologetic, Soya smiled and patted her minicons' head.
"Now that wasn't that hard, now was it?" Lunarflare nodded as a response.
"What is happening here?" A voice Soya knew said.
Drift.
