Miko's grin widened as Arcee stood over her, gun drawn as a few Vehicons advanced towards them. She wished she still had the Apex Armor so she could join the fight but the human was content cheering the femme on. When one of the Vehicons lunged to grab her, she winced with a laugh as Arcee shot through his arm and severed it.

"Kick their ass!" She screeched with enthusiasm.

Arcee immediately glared downward, "Hey, watch your language."

Ignoring the comment, Miko observed her rip a Vehicon's helm clean off and pummel the other into scrap metal. All the while, she managed to get some good photos on her phone while cheering some more.

The motorcycle performed an uppercut to the Vehicon's abdomen, shattering the plating and causing the drone to double over in sheer pain. With barely a glimpse of remorse, she aimed at the back of the Con's form and fired. The mech was dead before he even hit the ground. Arcee huffed and carefully made sure both enemies were dead before putting her weapons away, stepping over one of the husks but slightly kicking it in frustration.

"Awesome!" Miko cackled. Her green eyes were wide with amazement and Arcee couldn't help but smile back at her approval.

"That was, wasn't it?" The femme hummed.

The human girl nodded and began mimicking several of Arcee's moves in the air. "Are you kidding me!? You were like boom! Whack! Ka-pow! And those Vehicons were like ahhhh! And you showed those Cons who ruled! It was fantastic!"

Arcee began to laugh herself, "That's quite a way of putting it."

"Yeah but when that one Con tried to get me, you went nuts!"

"Well, I don't like the idea of them touching you. Bulkhead wouldn't appreciate me losing his human partner."

Miko made a mocking smile, "Is it that reason only or do you really care about me?"

The Autobot grew hesitant, peering around awkwardly as Miko's smirk grew again. "I…I do care mainly because I'm obligated to protect you…but I'll admit you have grown on me."

"I knew it! Don't worry, Arcee, I like you too. You want to know something?"

She raised a brow at the human as the latter continued, "You and I are good together. We make an excellent team, and I for one think we could take Buckethead himself. The Decepticons wouldn't know what hit them."

A part of Arcee wanted to laugh at the concept of taking Megatron head on but the second half of her smiled down at Miko's brash but positive idea of their teamwork. Granted Arcee was the one doing most of the fighting but she could appreciate the confidence of the human girl.

"You know, I think you and I can indeed turn their world upside down," Arcee smirked. "You've got a lot of fight in you, Miko. A strong warrior can strike fear even into the largest of enemies. You're something, kid."

Miko made two rock hand gestures with a grin, "Rock on! Our band of destruction will be Megatron's worst nightmare! We'll give them a show they'll never forget!"

The femme placed confident servos on her hips, winking as she nodded, "They will never know what hit them."

AN: Dream team of your destruction! I figured one day Miko would really see Arcee as a sisterly figure and perhaps kick Decepticon tailpipe in the process. Two of the most fragile but strong-willed characters combined is sure to cause even Megatron to say "oh shit!"
