TFP: Youngling

Ch.11~ Hologram Rider

I stepped out of the scanner, Ratchet looked at me as I raced over to him. He patted my backstruts and I pulled away and transformed, then I saw my program for a hologram. I clicked and saw the form, it looked like a human about Miko's age. The hologram had long hair with a helmet and a graphic long sleeve tee and jeans. I like it, if I had been human I would like to look like this.

I found I could control the hologram, I let the hologram stand on top of my bike form. He chuckled and let me play around with hologram form. I loved this, now I could finally leave the base and see outside. Giggling in glee I began to drive around the main base room, hearing someone drive in I saw Jack I made my hologram stand up on my bike as I drove waving to him and Arcee.

"Wow, seems like you got a vehicle mode, but make sure your hologram is sitting down when you leave the base." Arcee lectured as Jack got off her so she could transform.

"I will, just testing it out, I want to know how much I can do with it, so I can look like a normal human when I go outside," I replied.

"You don't think you are free to just leave the base whenever you want, no you must have some supervision." Ratchet stated, I huffed making my hologram sit down.

"Well at least I can go outside, I want to see what Earth is like." I chimed.

"Don't get too excited, Jasper, isn't that giant," Jack said, I nodded and dissipated my hologram.

"I know, Jasper isn't that big of a place, but I want to see more humans and how they interact along with plant life and other stuff. I want to learn and see all that I can about Earth." I explained.

"You certainly are the most excited about hanging out with humans." Arcee teased.

"I can't help it," I replied transforming back to my normal frame. "I never got to see much of anywhere but the base, and I am a kid, I want to see the world I now live on, see the humans we protect and live secretly among."

"Don't get too curious." Ratchet reminded.

"I won't I know we have to be a secret, I will be careful I want to just see it outside again. See the world, I never get to see the world." I admitted, he sighed and patted my head.

"I know, but we are to be in disguise, and you need to careful anytime you are outside, it is not only humans you are hiding from." He insisted, I nodded.

"I know, I learned self-defense, and I have a com link and I won't be alone." I soothed.

"Still you will be trained on how to behave outside before you even step one pede out of this base," I stated.

"I know, I will listen to the training well, don't worry Ratchet you know how quick I learn," I replied, he chuckled.

"That I do, now Arcee would you mind helping with her training in this area since you both need holographic drivers while without humans," Ratchet asked.

"Yeah sure, Jack you better do your homework, come on Star let's go to the training room," Arcee called, I nodded and raced after her.

(Ratchet's POV)

"Alright now time to lay down," I stated, she stood on her berth grinning.

"I finished my training next I get to go on a drive around Jasper tomorrow. I am way too excited to sleep." She chimed.

"I know, but you need sleep," I replied, she flopped down and I covered her up.

"Story please?" she asked, I chuckled I sat there.

"You and your stories, alright how about I tell you about your Carrier when he was young?"

"Yeah, tell me, tell me."

"Alright, now this was when your Carrier still lived in my hospital in Kaon. Your Carrier was very helpful and had made friends with a seriously disabled boy named, Rodian, he was blind and stuck in a hoverchair, he had some birth deformities. He was a good child and your Carrier became very close to him taking care of him throughout the day. The spoke through hand speak, which is sign language for Cybertronians. Your Carrier cared for him, they were best friends and were some of the most well-behaved kids I had. They would be kind and your Carrier helped as many other children as he could."

"Ja was always taking care of someone."

"Yes, he even when the war broke out he took care of people like your brothers and other kids. He always took the time to take care of those around him."

"He really did, thanks for the story I think I can sleep now."

"You do, well goodnight then."

"Night Rache."

(Stargazer's POV)

I raced to Bee's side, today I would be able to go on my first trip through Jasper. He patted my head and transformed as did I forming my driver. I revved up using hologram I drove off beside Bee, I wanted to play outside. All I wanted to do was play Bee would take me around town and show me a secret place I could wander in robot form.

I followed him out of the base for the first time and lead me toward the town of Jasper. I would get a good view around the town as Bee would instruct me over com's in which area and the streets we were on. I made a mental map of the town as we went for further reference.

'So, this is the kid's school, if we ever need you to pick up the kids this is where you go.' I soothed.

"Oh, this is their school, did you go to school like them?" I asked.

'Not really, I went to the solider academy, I specialized in special ops, and became a spy with your carrier.'

"Yeah, how was Carrier as a mentor?"

'He had high standards and was careful, but he was a kind mentor.'

"Wow, I no wonder you are so strong."

'Yeah, come on let's continue the tour.'

"Okay, show me more of the town."

(Bee's POV)

We arrived back at base both of us has had fun, I had picked up Raf with her and we drove back to base together. Raf was ready to do some school work, so I told Star we would train. Pulling in I let out Raf who I helped up after transforming back to my normal form. Once he was safely up I saw Star transform and stumble a bit.

"Still haven't gotten used to that feeling" she joked, I nodded.

'It takes time.' I soothed, she grabbed my hand and dragged me to the training room. 'Eager to train, aren't we?'

"I can't wait, I need to train, I need to get this transforming down, I want to learn how to defend myself when I am in vehicle mode." She chimed.

'Okay, but we have to be careful.' I replied she nodded dragging me forward.

"We will come on I just want to be the best I can be."

'You will be.'
