Bulkhead walked into the med room to check on the kids and on Rachet to see if he would want to take a short break. He didn't see the humans at all, so he asked Ratchet where they've gone.
"Hey Ratchet, where's Miko and the others?" he asked.
Ratchet sighed and replied, "They went back to Earth to rest for awhile. Miko is going to spend a few nights here with us until we can figure out how to cure the female cyborg."
"Oh" said the wrecker as he started to turn away from the doorway. He then turned back to Rachet and exclaimed, "Wait, Miko is spending a few nights here with us!"
"Correct" replied the medic as he continued his work on the computer.
"And Miko's host parents are fine with this?" he questioned nervously.
Ratchet turned his back away from his work to look at Bulkhead face to face. "Are you afraid that something is going to happen to Miko?" he asked Bulkhead.
"What, me afraid? Never even heard of that word" replied Bulkhead as he looked into Ratchet's optics.
Ratchet wasn't satisfied with the answer, so he persisted on making Bulkhead tell the truth, "Oh if you're not afraid, then why are you shaking like a loose screw?"
"What? Me, shaking like a loose screw? …. Yes I am afraid" Bulkhead replied a bit too fast.
"Why? She is perfectly safe here on this ship as long as no bot steps on her," replied Rachet.
"But that's what I'm worried about. I'm afraid that one of us would crush her" he replied with concern in his voice for Miko's safety.
Ratchet sighed and replied, "If you're so afraid that she would get stepped on, then stay close by to make sure that she doesn't get stepped on. You are her guardian after all. You decide what's best for her safety here on Cybertron."
Bulkhead nodded as he waited for Miko to come through the spacebridge. A few minutes had passed by before they heard someone entering the portal.
"Phew, that was a lot to carry," said the human girl as the portal closed behind her.
"Miko?" said the wrecker as he turned towards the portal to see the young girl standing next to three purple luggage bags and a guitar case as she stretched her arms in the air.
She turned towards him and replied, "Oh hey there Bulk! You ready to rock this world!"
"Uhh… Miko" said Bulkhead nervously.
"Yeah Bulk?" she replied.
Bulkhead hesitated for a second before he worked up his courage to tell her. "Miko I don't want you to wonder around the ship too much. Okay?"
"I know, you're worried that I might get lost or even stepped on" she replied.
"How did you?" he said before the youngster cut him off.
"Bulk, it was kinda obvious. I mean you're so worried that something would happen to me all the time. Also I wasn't really planning much on exploring every nook and cranny of this ship," she said as she carried her luggage and walked over to the wrecker.
"So, where do I put my stuff?" she asked out loud.
Bulkhead was still astonished that Miko would actually stay out of trouble for once that he didn't hear her question.
