I decided to skip Convoy, as I was not a huge fan of that episode and I really want to get to Predatory. Which will be the next chapter as I am skipping Speed Metal also. I hope you are all enjoying the story so far and understand why I wish to skip these two episodes. Time for Deus Ex Machina.

Nahko's POV

"Where's Miko?" Bulkhead asks as I get in after school.

"Detention, again" I tell him. "She hasn't done her history report yet" I state.

"Have you?" he asks.

"Yep and I've offered to help her. But she thinks history is boring Well that any form of learning is boring" I tell him. "I just want her to be successful in life and get a good job one day. But she doesn't seem to care" I state. "Mum and dad called the other day, both are disappointed that Miko isn't doing as well as I am academically in school" I tell him.

"I'm sure she will find somethin she is passionate about and then you won't be able to get her to stop researching it" he states.

"I doubt it" I tell him with a chuckle. "She only cares about fun, music and monster truck rallies" I list. "Speaking of music, lets listen to some while we wait" I suggest. He starts up some music. Not long after Miko appears and gets in.

"I love this song!" she cheers.

"Yeah! Miko, I thought you had a history report to do. Did detention end early?" Bulkhead asks her.

"I doubt it" I mutter.

"It did for me" she states.

"Then why is Mrs McDonald heading this way, looking mad?" I ask her.

"Step on it, Bulkhead!" she yells and I roll my eyes.

"Ah Miko" he groans and shots off. "Miko, I'm supposed to be your and Nahko's guardian, not your getaway car. You can't just cut detention. What if your parents found out?" he asks her.

"They live in Tokyo, remember? And don't even worry about our host parents. I think I scare them" she states.

"Miko, they are not scared of you and if you skip detention again. I will tell our parents" I tell her. She just roll her eyes as we near base. "Tonight we are working on your report" I tell her.

"Yeah yeah" she says.

"Miko, listen If you fail high school, you can't go to, Uni-- , it's "keys" -- , "codge" -- Wait, wait. W-what's that word again?" Bulkhead asks as we reach the base.

"College and University" I tell him.

"You sound like our parents" Miko complains as we get out of Bulkhead.

"Well, aren't they Japanese?" he asks her confused.

"They may speak a different language, but you say the same things" she tells him.

"Because we want the best for you. And that means making sure you go to school, not jail" he states.

"I doubt she'd go to jail" I assure him.

"Uh-oh. What'd you do?" Jack asks Miko.

"She skipped detention" I tell him. "And has neglected to do her history report" I add.

"Look, Miko, before I became a warrior, I was a laborer. Construction. I can build stuff. I can break stuff. And that's it" Bulkhead tells her.

"I love breaking stuff" Miko tells him. "I want to be just like you, Bulk" she states.

"Why would you want to be like me when you can be a-a medic like Ratchet?" Bulkhead asks her.

"I'm detecting a fresh energon pulse from the nation called Greece. An ancient city. Quite historic, I believe" Ratchet states.
