Predacon Outcast

Chapter 39.

*   *   *   *

The idea of sneaking off in the middle of the night with Grimlocks team made me kinda nervous. What if Optimus found out? He'd get REALLY mad, but maybe when he sees the energon we'll find he'll be relieved? I hope so.

I had gone back to the medbay later in the evening and was helping a few more patients with minimal damages, nighttime had come around faster than I expected and it wasn't long until it was time to go and meet Grimlock. I was also really tired, so I don't know how I'm going to do this mission.

I was about to leave the medbay when I saw some Autobot scouts carrying in a blue and orange Autobot body with a hole in its chest, the Queen was right behind them. Wait, where did these guys go? I genuinely have no idea. They laid the Autobots body on a medical table carefully, the organic looked around.

"Ratchet! You here?" She called out.

Ratchet came around a corner, "What-Oh dear Primus...you have found Dai Atlas."

Ohhh so that's the Autobot general or commander she was talking about! No wonder he's a commander, he looks like one. Ratchet walked over to the body and looked it over while the Queen turned the other way.

"Alright, now where's Springlock? She might be able to heal these injuries." She said.

"I'm here!"

I walked around a small wall and approached them, looking at the commanders body. That's a really big and bad chest wound, it might take more than a few minutes for his injuries to seal.

"Even if she heals his injuries and that raygun works, we don't have enough energon to revive him." Ratchet said.

"Then you're lucky I do." Xeno smiled.

Several of the remaining guards came into the medbay carrying cubes of energon. Ratchet and me weren't expecting this whatsoever, seeing the mercenaries coming into the medbay. They set the cubes down and then left.

"I came prepared, now let's get this shit done!"

I gave a nod and started to heal Dai Atlas' big chest wound. It took a few minutes more than usual because of how bad the wound was, it was working but just a lot slower. Xeno watched as the large chest gap was closing, or at least I think she did. I don't know, her dark glass dome won't let me see her eyes. But she was facing it, so I can only guess.

Once the chest wound was sealed, Ratchet started filling a machine with the energon the Queen brought. When that was filled, he put these large needles into the body's arms, then started pumping energon into it. His optics didn't light up when he was being pumped with our, I mean their, lifeblood. I noticed Queen Xeno looking over a few more injuries that I didn't get to heal on her yet as we waited.

"Miss Xeno, I can finish healing those if you want." I say.

She only smiled.

"Have at it, Kid."

I smiled and started healing her other injuries, some still looked really bad and they took longer to seal.

"Lockdown really hurt you, why didn't you see a medic for these?" I ask.

Xeno scoffed, "Girl, he kneed me in the face and only left a few scratches. These were only flesh wounds. If he REALLY wanted to hurt me, he would've cut my arm off or something. On my planet we have a saying."

"What's that?"

"Whatever kills a human, only harms the hunter."

That's nice. Scary mostly. What IS it with this Queen Xenomorph??? Why is she so stubborn and crazy?? Well, I can't say that I'm any less stubborn, but I'm definitely NOT as crazy as she is. And I can heal my own injuries! I finished healing her wounds not too long after.
