When All Lights Go Out I (TFP)

Azura was still trembling as she lingered underneath Ratchet. She looked around fearfully as she glanced around the lobby and the open panel. She glanced at the ground bridge, hoping that this could be fixed very, very soon. She didn't know how she would feel knowing the possibility of Optimus dying. It would really break her heart, and probably spirit all together. She's already lived a life believing her parents abandoned her, and now knowing who her parents were, she wasn't ready to lose them. Although, she knew one was gone. Megatron might have played a part in her creation, but she did not know how he would even be with a sparkling.

She watched Jack and Miko walk towards them with confused expressions. They both were curious about why the lights were dimming. She still wondered where Raf was, but if he was just doing his own thing somewhere and he was safe, there wasn't much to worry about. But Raf wasn't exactly brave either, so he might be startled by the dimming of the lights and he might have a panic attack because of it.

She turned her head when Ratchet gasped loudly, reaching in and pulling out one of the circuits. She widened her eyes when the circuit he was holding looked like different parts of it had either been chomped through, or melted. She assumed they had been melted given the black around the edges. "We most definitely have a problem. But what could have caused this?" Ratchet was still confused by the whole thing.

Azura jumped again when the lights dimmed once more. "Or that," Bulkhead said bluntly, glancing up at the lights as Jack and Miko stop by the autobots, looking at the panel curiously. "It isn't doing Azura much good."

"No, it is not," Ratchet agreed, looking back at the circuit. "She's never really slept in the dark here before." He glanced down at her briefly before looking back at the circuit. "However, this might just be because of the main grid. Hopefully it isn't a substation malfunction." He looked back at the circuit to study it closely.

Azura didn't know what to believe, but she wanted to hope the same as Ratchet. "Hey guys..." She turned her head quickly when she heard Rafael. "Look what I found."

Ratchet was immediately annoyed by Raf's sentence as he looked away from the circuit. "We're busy!" He shouts at Rafael before he suddenly screamed in shock and fear.

Azura didn't have time to realize as Ratchet scooped her up suddenly, making her scream in surprise as the medic and the other two bots backed away fearfully as though they just seen something scary, like a snake. Ratchet held her against his chassis as she looked at Rafael. He was holding something in his arms. It looked like a small, robotic insect of some kind, and it was recharging in Raf's arms. Bulkhead and Bumblebee both stand in front of Ratchet with their canons armed towards the boy.

Miko and Jack were both alarmed at the autobots' reaction as they back themselves over to Raf, who was shocked at their reaction too. "Hey, hey!" Miko shouts, raising her hands to try and diffuse the reaction. "What's with you guys?"

"Scraplet!" Bulkhead began to shout fearfully, making Azura look at him with wide eyes. "SCRAPLET!"

Raf frowned as he heard the name. "What's a scraplet?"

"The most dangerous vermin to crawl upon the face of Cybertron," Ratchet responded in complete disgust, glaring at the creature that was still recharging in Raf's arms.

Jack and Miko glance at each other, surprised by what they just heard and did not seem to believe them. They both relaxed at this point too. "This?" Jack gestured at the scraplet in disbelief with a light chuckle. "Are you kidding me?"

"You're giant robots," Miko said with a smile, spreading her arms as an expression of their size. "Scrappy here is teeny."

Bulkhead was panicking as he shook his head, it was something Azura had never seen before and that made her think she should be scared too. It these adult autobots were scared of this scraplet, she should be too. "You have no idea the damage that teeny thing can do!"
