Gettign to Know you Better Pt.2
Written by Arcee Cheetah

"Stupid, stuck up, hyperactive Aquin. Always getting what she wants, Miss Goody Two Shoes." Charmel muttered under his breath on the way to the Predicon base.

"Do I hear you talking about Aquin?" Pichuana asked.

"No, I was talking about you." Charmel replied

"That's it you womanizer!" Pichuana yelled, and thundershocked Charmel to a nice crisp.

"Pichuana!? Why'd you do that?" Palmona asked

"Well he made me mad, he was talking about Aquin." Pichuana replied.

"Oh..Charmel you know Aquin is only 13, she's not accustomed to actuall Transformer ways, she wants to know more about her origional faction." Palmona explained. "After a fight between the Predicons and the Maximals erupted, Aquin's parents asked if I would take care of her if they died. I said I would, now Aquin's with us whether you like it or not Charmel."

"Really? Aquin is an original Maximal?" Gomabot asked.

"Yes she is, I've known her for a long time." Pichuana said. "Enough small talk you guys lets get going."

~At The Maximal Base~

"Hey cool base." Aquin said. She'd been given a tour of the entire Maximal base, by Cheetor, and was fasinated by everything.

"It's not that much, this is actually what the Neo Dawn looked like before it's upgrade." Aquin explained

"Woah so your ship is even more advanced than ours?" Cheetor asked intriged.

Aquin nodded and said "our ship can sometimes be motion activated, like if I put my hads in a certain position and keep it there it will play the radio, or something like that."

"Really? You have to show me Aquin!"

"Uh um well I have to get Palmona's permission first. She's kinda protective of me."

"Ok."

"So Aquin, do you like the base?" Optimus asked coming up behind the two.

"Yes I do, it's very spiffy." Aquin said.

"Pardon me for asking,  but were you once a Maximal?" Optimus asked.

"Yes I was when I was really little, then after my mom and dad died Palmona took me in, then I became an Exploricon." Aquin said.

"Hey 'Quin you should see where the Pred base is!" said Charmel through her com-link

"Why, where is it?" Aquin asked.

"It's in the middle of  firey lava pits." Charmel said.

"Real appropriate."

"Quinny I'll see you back at base, 'kay?"

"Ok Charmel C-ya." Aquin answered.

~At the Pred Base~

"Charmel, just a litle while ago you were bad mouthing Aquin, now you're being nice to her. What's up with the 180?" Gomabot asked.

"Well I feel sorry for the girl, she desrves a chance." Charmel explained.

"Oh. Well that’s good." Pichuana said.

Then the Predicon's autoguns went on. "Oh Damnit" said Pichuana.

Palmona trasformed and said "We come in peace, please don't hurt us, we wish to discuss things."

The guns were turmed off and the front entrance was opened. "What kind of things?" Boomed a familiar voice.

"Introductions, they are in order, just in case you need us or we need you." Pichuana said.

"Ah yesss excellent idea mouse. I am Megatron leader of the Predicons."

"I am Wazzzpinator."

"Taranchulas, if anyone of you touch me I'll blast you all to the inferno."

"Lighten up Legs, Blackarachnia is my name."

"Scorpinok."

"Terrosaur"

"Gee you guys are a fun bunch." Charmel said sarcastically.

"That supposed to mean anything lizard?" Terrosaur asked menacinly.

"What's it to ya Fossil Beak?" Charmel replied in the same tone.

"Please Please stop it, we need to get along, better than we are, we don't need to gather arround a campfire and sing "Kumbya", but we have to be tollerable of each other." Pichuana said.

"Pichuana's right." Blackarachnia said. "It's better to have allies than enemies."

"Glad you agree." Gomabot said.

"Well we better be off before it gets too dark." Charmel said.

~Back at the Maximal Base~

"Oh shoot, I gotta go. Nice meeting you all!" Aquin said sadly.

"Thanks for helpping us Aquin." Optimus said.

"You're welcome." Aquin said "It's one of my positive flaws, I need to be helpful."
Aquin exited the Maximal base and headed towards the Neo Dawn.

~At the Neo Dawn~

Aquin entered the base with a perky attitude and singing Britany Spears songs to herself.  She went to her quarters and took out her journal

"Dear Journal,
Second day here, I met the Maximals. It was kinda cool helpng them, getting to know my origional faction,  atleast theres someone near my own age here I can actually talk to. It was a totally cool day overall. Charmel is starting to be nice to me, for once, Pichuana's becoming like my older sister, Gomabot's my big brother, Palmona's like my mother. Palmona has been taking good care of me, not over sheilding me, telling me straight front, never sugar coating it. That’s why I like her, she doesn't treat me like a little kid she treats me like….um well, I can't think of the words, I'll think of it later."

Aquin closed her journal and returned it in the hiding place (You think I'd tell? I respect Aquin's privicy)

"Aquin we're back!" Palmona said.

"Cool how was it?" Aquin asked.

"Interesting…" Pichuana said.

"Neat, I wanna hear about it tomorrow. I need to get my sleep now." Aquin said drousily.
