(Dragonfly POV)

I started running after Knockout and called, "Hey, 'Con!"

Knockout turned around to look at me and I stopped running about five steps from him. "Um yea... so..."

Scrap. What should I say? Is he really going to HELP me? Billions of questions and possible answers ran through my head. Got one. "What's your REAL reason for not scraping me? I mean really. 'Cons are supposed to treat 'Bots like something from the scrapyard." I said. I wanted an answer and I wanted it right then.

"Fine. I'm really i-" he never got to finish because just then a sinkhole appeared right underneath us and we went down. Of course, we screamed for dear life and when we hit solid ground I went unconscious.

When I came to, my right side ached and tried to sit up. "No, I wouldn't try that if I were you," I heard. "You fell and a rock jabbed into your T-Cog." SCRAP! There goes my weapons, but wait. There's Energon on the ground but I'm not leaking it anymore. I feel my right side and its all fixed up. "I did try to repair it, but I'm not that amazing."

I slightly smiled at him and asked once again,"Why spare my Spark and then save me?" An awkward science filled the air and I decided to try my comm to break it. "Cliff? Are you Okay? Hello?" No answer. Then Knockout spoke,"He's on the Warship. He already has a new partner." And why do I care? "So," I asked. "I'm not the only bot out there." He crossed his arms. "So, nothing at all was going on between you two?" I rolled my optics and tried to sit up again.

"Do you ever listen to anybody?" he asked. "Nope. Life's more fun this way." A stinging pain came from my right leg and I looked down at it-- well what was left of it. Lets just say that I wouldn't be walking for a while. "Oh my Primus..." I whispered. "Yea... That too..." Knockout said. "I was wondering when you'd notice." Then it hit me. "Wait, how are we going to get out of here?"

"About that... I can't climb up the wall," he said as he poked the rock and it easily fell off. "Much less carrying you." This again? "Why would you save an Autobot!?" I yelled. The same awkward science filled the air. "You know what, never mind that, let's get out of here." I looked up and I could see movement. "Knockout, look!" I exclaimed as I pointed up. "If its 'Bot or 'Con we have a chance of survival!"

"DOWN HERE!!" He yelled. I decided to join. "HELP! WE'RE STUCK!" I added. "Hold on, I'm coming!" rang a familiar voice. Not Cliff, not Breakdown, not SeaSpray, but someone else... A large ladder dropped down and I tried to stand. Ok, left leg, and stand up! "Scrap!" I shouted as I fell to the cyber matter that was on the bottom of the ditch. Knockout came over to help me but I gave him a look that screamed,"back off!" He put his hands up and backed away leaving me to try and use the crumbling wall as a crutch.

The dirt fell all over my dark turquoise body and I looked at Knockout with a helpless face. He smiled and came over to help. I limped over to the ladder with Knockout's help and grabbed a rung of the ladder to support myself. It was hard climbing the ladder without a right leg, but I managed. When I got to the top I saw exactly who I didn't want to see. StarScream. We both gasped and I fell to the ground. Knockout climbed up after me and saw me on the ground and StarScream's angry face.

"What in Megatron's name were you thinking, helping an Autobot?!" he screamed at Knockout. I tried to transform my hands in to guns but I guess my T-Cog was too damaged. I sat there, unarmed with only one good leg. Knockout whispered something in StarScream's ear and then Screamer turned to me and said,"Because Knockout here saved your spark, you now owe him your life." So that's why he helped me. The little scraplet! "Fine," I started, "But can you guys at least fix up my leg?" Trying to act innocent was going to be so hard.

They took me into the warship and StarScream went to the bridge. I heard a femme yell,"Get fragged!" and I smiled a little. Someone has the guts to say it to him. I was in Knockout's laboratory and he was rummaging around for a new leg. "Hey, you," I called. "What could you possibly want now?" he asked. "Jeez, I just wanted you to know that any leg will do." I responded. "Are you always this nice?" I asked. No response. I smirked and shook my head.

He finally found a leg that looked like my own but it was, oh my Primus, PINK. "Oh, scrap..." I muttered. "What, you don't like pink?" he smirked then took out a navy blue one of the same style. "Made you squirm." He said. He came over and asked,"Would you like me to induce stasis?" I shook my helm and said,"I don't trust you enough." That seemed to take him by surprise and he just shrugged it off. "Okey then. Here we go."

He attached my new leg at the knee joint and I winced at the pain. "That's why I wanted to induce stasis." he said. "Still don't trust you." I said through gritted teeth. The navy blue looked nice with my other dark turquoise leg and when the surgery was over, I asked,"So, now that I know why you saved me, what do I do for you?"

He shrugged and walked to the other side of the room to put his tools away. When he came back over, I was already standing and looking at my new leg in the mirror. "Huh, blue looks good on me..." I said to no one in particular. I tried jumping, running, and I was about to do a cartwheel when Screamy burst through the doors. "You, here, now!"
