Transformers-'Verse. Nellis AFB. Early in the morning, I wake to the boom.....

((Morning after the Ratchet fixing.))

It's dark and still in Ratchet and Endeavour's room. All is calm, all is quiet....

Till something blows up massively in the front courtyard.

Ratchet goes from soundly offline to sitting up and ready to roar at Ironhide, only to stop short as he remembers that such vocal exertions might startle a certain unborn spark and cause her mother discomfort. Instead he listens to Jazz scolding and looks down at his sparkmate to see how she reacted to the explosion.

"I just want a little family bonding time." He stops and stares at the machine parked in the shadow of Endeavour's drone. "What?"

Endeavour chuckles. "That's Jeimu's car, I think. Funny, that - she's never driven here before."

Columbia runs up to it and hunkers down to inspect it, clearly enthralled by its violent lime green exterior.

"But why is it in my workshop?" His voice holds the usual slightly peeved rumble as he walks over to look at the intruder.

"Maybe she's one of those human beings who takes great stock in her vehicle, and as such, refuses to park it outside."

Columbia has both her hands on the hood and is peering in the windshield as though expecting to see someone inside the car. "Cooooooool," she intones, looking up at her parents with wide optics and a smile.

Ratchet snorts and stops beside his daughter to bend down and lift the car's front end so that he can see the underside. "She's probably just trying to annoy me again."

"...or that," the shuttle concedes. "Because we all know it's a hobby of hers."

While her parents discuss the logistics of how the relatively new smart car with a German license plate on the front and a plate from the Republic of Newfoundland on the back (that, upon further inspection, was absolutely and without a doubt Jeimu's car) ended up in the workshop, Columbia scans the thing and then decides she'll try her hand at changing to look just like it.

Without warning, suddenly there are two Forfours on the workshop floor.

Endeavour laughs. "Well then."
