My Little Slice of Clear Sky

Chapter 5

You hummed softly eyeing the different alts to chose from, some of the more common ones on this planet. You had to admit they had a certain charm to them. 

"My apologies royal one, we had to move quick, so we could only scan a few of the bots modes, place blame on-" Raptor was cut off when you raised a servo 

"It is alright." You stated, "You yourself had to get an earthly alt mode as well."

Your eyes never left the screen. You could feel the nervousness flooding off the femme behind you .

"You are dismissed Raptor." You stated lifting a servo to run a few digits against your derma thinking 

She dipped her helm formally and stepped out leaving you to your decision. 

You had already ruled out a few due the fact that they are much too "heavy-duty". Your optics continued to scan over the others. 

You rubbed your optics, "Your being too picky this is what we have at the moment..." You scolded yourself softly 

Perhaps it was the fact you've grown up with bots claiming you deserve only the best, just from the energon rushing through your fuel lines. You really didn't care, but you couldn't help be a little picky when it came to your alt. 

You finally chose one and stretched out your frame before downloading the schematics of your chosen alt. You rolled your shoulders as they popped a little as your new frame ran through your processor adjusting your protoform accordingly. 

You shivered at the change of the metal on your frame. But sighed when it finished feeling refreshed at a new frame. You stretched with a soft groan wings fluttering, itching to fly.

You stepped out into the main section of the small camp set up. You glanced around at your seekers, they were mainly just milling about.

"How about a fly?"You asked drawing attention to yourself, "We have new alts so why not?"

Slowly the five seekers nodded in agreement, though excitement was evident in the twitching of their wings. You smiled and ran forward and left up arching up towards the sky. The others quick to follow your lead.

The sky here was wonderful. Much like your home one. Clear and calm.

Unlike your current place of residence which where the sky threatened to break with cosmic level storms at the flick of a wing.

You laughed softly and did a barrel roll getting used to the way this new frame moved. Either way it felt splendid to be in the air again even if it's just to fly around.

But those were the best moments.

Though it didn't start to worry you when the number of jets in your party suddenly began to grow below you, you liked to fly above everyone just to keep an eye out on them.

It worried you that so many of the same grey and purple jet had begun to close in.

";:Royal one?:;" Staticbolt commed up

";:wait and see what they will do, I would like to prevent any unnecessary conflict.:;" you hummed

Though their intent soon became obvious when they began to fire.

";:Now?:;"

";:show them who truly owns the sky.:;"
