Skybird was performing a global scan of Cybertron to make sure that there weren't anymore Mini-cons who needed rescuing. Unfortunately, there were some Mini-cons who were loyal to their new masters. Either because they were with them beforehand or they enjoyed their new lives as Decepticons. Most of these Mini-cons were Torpedoes.
She sighed as she completed the scan, her boss had told her that they had rescued almost every Mini-con that wanted to be rescued, but 'almost' wasn't good enough for her.
Wildstreak left her room with a bag on her back, the blue Mini-con turned her chair around to face her new roommate.
After the pair returned to Luna 1, Skybird and Wildstreak had grown even closer as friends. As a result, Wildstreak decided to move in with Skybird in case disaster were to ever strike again. Besides, they both shared a bond with each other and their deployer Galaxia, wherever she was.
Skybird folded her arms as she looked up at her partner. "Where are you off to?"
Wildstreak turned to face her as she placed her servos on her hips. "To Cube practice, where else?"
She stood up. "I thought you finished the league? You don't have another game for months."
"I know that, Birdie," Wildstreak replied with a sigh. "But Rollerblade insists that we train anyway, we must always be at the top of our game."
"Rollerblade?" Skybird asked with a confused expression on her faceplate.
"Yeah, you know, the yellow Mini-con," Wildstreak told her only to get a shrug from Skybird. "My Cube team captain." She shrugged again causing Wildstreak to groan. "The one who has wheels instead of pedes!"
She suddenly perked up. "Oh yeah, you introduced me once," she replied.
Wildstreak grabbed the door handle and turned it. "Yes I did, that's why I need to go so that I'm not late."
The blue Mini-con took a step closer to her. "Actually, I wanted to tell you something first."
Wildstreak sighed then turned to face the Mini-con. "You have two minutes, go."
Skybird rolled her optics a little then smiled. "You know how we have that spare room?"
Wildstreak nodded, she could kind of see where this was going.
"Well, we are getting a new roommate," she said happily.
Wildstreak's expression changed from boredom to excitement. "Really? Do I know them?"
"In fact you do," Skybird replied.
"Okay then, who is it?"
Skybird paused for a moment then spoke up. "It's Eclispe."
Wildstreak's excitement just shattered. Skybird could tell. "E-Eclipse? Why?!"
"Come on, Wildstreak, you know that Eclispe's family still hasn't been found, and she still lives in the basement of that warehouse I first found her in. I decided that she should get the extra room, especially after everything she has done to help us," Skybird explained.
"Thank you for having this conversation with me beforehand," Wildstreak stated sarcastically.
Skybird rolled her optics again. "Remember that this is my apartment that you moved into. Eclipse isn't a Con and we're friends."
"She may not be a Con but she is a Torpedo," the Mini-con growled.
Skybird gasped. "Not all Torpedoes are evil!"
"Tell that to Slipstream and Jetstorm, you know, the ones who were captured by two Torpedo Mini-cons!" Wildstreak yelled.
"They were Decepticons, and Eclispe saved Drift's life and protected yours," Skybird argued. "You should be grateful."
"Grateful wasn't the word that I was going to use," Wildstreak stated before noticing the time. "Your two minutes are up." She opened the door. "We will continue this discussion later."
The purple Mini-con walked out and slammed the door behind her. Skybird narrowed her optics as she watched. She didn't understand her problem with Eclispe, it made no sense.
Maybe Wildstreak was jealous that Eclipse and Skybird had grown closer? Or maybe she didn't like the fact that Eclispe was a Torpedo, the kind of Mini-con that was known for associating with Decepticons.
Either way, Skybird paid for the apartment so she got to decide who occupies their spare room.
And she wanted it to be Eclispe.
She just hoped that having Wildstreak and Eclipse in the same apartment wouldn't cause any problems.
