This was requested by Barclayd. I'm probs going to mention this every chapter but my Wattpad is being a bitch and it won't let me tag ppl. Keep in mind, that everytime I get a request I try to tag that person just to see if it works.
The first thing that Medix does in the morning is finding his favourite professor and mentor Blades. He admires the way Blades wakes up so early in the morning even from recharge. If we're being honest, Medix loves his sleep. It helps him concentrate better. Even so, he would get up an hour earlier to talk to his mentor. And that's where he was going right now.
"Hey professor!" Medix called out
"Ah, Medix. Right on time as usual!" Blades smiled
"What are you doing?"
"Just reorganising my bandages. How was your day yesterday?"
"It was alright. Whirl got a quicker fly time on that track than me"
Blades looked at Medix and saw he was frowning. He stopped what he was doing and turned his full attention to Medix.
"Well, she is more experienced." Blades pointed out
"I know... And I'm happy for her that she got a better score than me. I am!"
"But?"
"But sometimes it feels I'm never gonna be as good as her. Maybe a helicopter wasn't the right choice for me after all"
"Oh Medix don't say that. If your never going to believe in yourself then you'll never be able to do it. Take me, for example. I hate heights. Absolutely terrified in them. But after a while I started to believe in myself. I knew that without me, my team might not succeed"
"That's because you're the only flying vehicle on your team. On mine, there's me, Whirl and Hotshot!"
"Medix, Medix, Medix." Blades sighs "Would you like me to teach you how to improve your flying?"
"You've already been doing that"
"Yes, but maybe you'd like to do it right now? You know, whilst everyone else is still asleep."
"Oh, uhh.. Sure!"
"Okay, but this time, there'll be no flying involved"
"Wait what?"
"You heard me"
"But how am I going to learn to fly, if I can't fly?"
"You'll see" Blades pulled out a projector and turned it on so the light was reflecting off a white wall. Blades sat down and tapped on his berth to get Medix to come sit down with him.
"By watching a movie?" Medix asked as he sat down
"Nope. By taking notes." Blades played some clips. "This is Hotshot in jet mode. When he was rescuing those humans he had to risk transforming in front of them to pick them up. In this one, he did transform in front of them. We were lucky that one was in Griffyn Rock. And in this one you had to climb on top of him just so he could pick up the humans from the fire in the forest"
"What's your point?" Medix was confused
"My point is, Hotshot has a disadvantage with his jet mode. He doesn't have a scoop claw like a helicopter does. So if another human is in danger and he's in jet mode, Hotshot might have to transform in front of them"
"Okay, that might be true. But what about Whirl?"
Blades played another clip. These were of Whirl, in helicopter mode, not being able to perform a mission by herself and needing to ask for help.#
"You see this? Whirl couldn't do a mission by herself so which other flying bot came to help her? It wasn't me, it wasn't Hotshot and it definitely wasn't Windblade"
The last bit made Medix giggle
Blades pointed to Medix "It was you Medix. Without you, Whirl wouldn't have pulled of that rescue. You were the reason it worked.
"Maybe you're right. Yeah, you know what? You are right! This team needs me whether they like it or not"
"That's the spirit!" Blades cheered
"Thank you, sir for helping me see that."
"Anything for my favourite mentee." Blades laughed
Medix smiled and hugged Blades
