[Jun offers Riley some watermelon, the Irish woman is suspicious.]
Riley,staring at the watermelon half:What’s wrong with it?
Jun: Nothing.~
Blue Cop, in a warning tone: Jun.
Jun: No-thing! Jeez, Can’t a guy just do his sort-of aunt a solid and share?
[Riley's eyes narrow she turns the watermelon half around to reveal it’s completely hollow on the inside, Riley doesn’t know if she should be annoyed or impressed?]
The bots start to notice some strange happenings around Motown there were whispers of fearsome mechanical monsters attacking people on the streets and being saved by mysterious hero. Edo says it just an urban legend but what is that really the truth?

=============================
Mega Ambler and Shadow X were crouched down watching Teo and Jun curiously as the two boys drew a similar figure in red on sketchpads, when Shadow X asked what them what they were drawing? Teo explained they were drawing "the hero from the rumors." the bots had no idea what he was talking about and asked for more details.
Jun and Teo went on to excitedly explain the rumors about the techno-organic monsters that were supposedly roaming the streets of Motown looking for victims to assimilate with and how mysterious hero in red appears and rescues them then mysteriously disappears into the night before anyone can thank them! The boys excited ramblings got Blue cop's attention as he approached them Jun handed him his drawing to examine as he and Teo kept talking.
Blue cop eyes narrowed as he examined Jun's drawing this hero almost resembled a cardbot but that wasn't it, as he vaguely listen to Jun and Teo talk he heard them mentioning the monsters and hero apparently started showing up 3 years ago; he and the other bots have only been on Earth for about a year...
Mega Trucker spoke up breaking Blue cop's train of thought. "What do you think about this, Edo?" The dump truck looked at the mechanic who was cleaning and sorting engine parts. "I think it's just someones imagination running wild from watching too many cartoons." Jun and Teo pouted at the blatant skepticism he was displaying as Riley exited the customer waiting area after restocking the drink cooler.
"What do you think about it, Riley?" Teo ask as she grabbed a mop from a storage locker. "About what?" The boys show her the drawings and explained the situation Riley looked mildly surprised at the pictures then smiled a little. "I don't really take rumors seriously, but I think ya kids might have a promising future in art." She gave Teo a pat on the head before grabbing the mop bucket and heading to the sink, both Jun and Teo didn't know if they should be upset for not being taken seriously or flattered by Riley praising their art work; the drawings were pretty good.
Later
Teo and Jun had gone home and Edo was closing up for the night, he saw Riley her on her bike getting ready to leave. "Careful on the way home, Riley." he called out as she put her helmet on. "I will, 'cos a certain someone always follows me home." she muttered the last bit as started her bike and drove out of the scrapyard a few minutes later like clock work she saw Blue cop pull on to the road and started following behind her.
He started doing this right after the fiasco with Heavy Iron a few weeks ago after she gotten her head cut open by the energy beam giant bot fired at them, seeing her getting injured like that must've really shook him up because he's been not so subtly following her around since the incident always keeping an eye out and making no one bothers her. (When he's not busy keeping Jun out of trouble that is.)
Though Riley really wished Blue Cop had told her about his intentions before hand 'cos she dang well nearly crapped herself the first time he followed her home; Riley thought it was a real cop tailing her and she was being pulled over!
Which confused Blue Cop he was wondering why Riley suddenly pulled over on the side of the road and idled there for ten minutes before he finally spoke up and asked if she was okay? She nearly threw her helmet at him!
Riley saw her driveway coming up and pulled into it she made sure to wave at Blue Cop who flashed his lights at her as he did a U-turn and drove back to the scrapyard.
Once he was out of sight Riley sighed and walked into her house she turned on her living room lights and got her coat and shoes off when she heard her noise from her hallway, the Irish woman glanced over her shoulder...
"Oh sorry, were ya sleepin?"
"..."
"I didn't mean to come home this late, I know it worries the lot of ya."
"..."
Riley rolls her eyes as they leave the room. "The silent treatment, really? Gah, yer such a child!" she huffed as put her stuff away and got ready to make dinner, she'll deal with that later!
-Later that same night-
Mega Trucker was on patrol looking for any signs of that Cardbot that intervened during the fight with Heavy Iron, when he heard a scream coming from a small park! He followed the sound and saw a human but something was wrong with them, there was this mass stuck to them, it look like robotic starfish with a glowing red eye with wire tentacles that digging painfully into their flesh as they wailed in agony as their body began changing as the tentacle dug in deeper.
Mega Trucker's whole frame was shaking in fear as he tried to understand what he was looking at? then remembered what Teo and Jun were saying about the metal-organic monsters roaming the streets at night, but that was just a story right?! Edo said so!
The human stop screaming as the mass attached to the seemed fully take control of they're body and started walking towards hm! "It probably thinks there's a driver in my cab!" The dump truck bot thought as the creature got closer to him it didn't even look human anymore! it resembled some kind faceless humanoid covered head to toe in wires save for the glowing red mass now affixed to their chest.
Mega Trucker tried to back away but the area was to narrow for him to properly turn around in! The creature started reaching for him... just then the sound of an engine approaching got his and the monster's attention.
And the monster was suddenly run over by a red sports car and sent flying away Mega Trucker watched as the car driver side door opened and figure in red armor calmly stepped outside, Mega Trucker's eyes began to sparkle in awe as he remembered the hero from Teo and Jun's drawings was standing right in front of him!
(Think of it as a hybrid between kamen rider Drive and Ex-aid)
Mega Tucker watched as the hero and monster engaged in combat but soon his awe turned worry for the human trapped inside that wired mass; were they going to be okay? The hero was giving them one heck of a walloping.
Mega Trucker was so fixated on the fight he didn't notice Blue Cop and Mega Ambler showed up, they too joined Mega Trucker in stunned silence as they watched the tail end of the fight.
The hero tossed the monster into the air where a transparent energy ramp appeared the hero grabbed the handlebar on their belt and revved it a few as their left leg started glowing that's when they were launched up the ramp into the sky and flew passed the stunned monster then flipped mid-air into a drop kick striking the monster down and causing a small explosion.
The hero then turned back to the downed monster they flipped it over and ripped the red mass off their chest before crushing into dust, with that gone the mess of wires covering the human host disintegrated leaving them looking normal again.
Seeing the danger was now gone the hero calmly went back to their car and drove off "Wait, stop right there!" Blue cop called out after them before giving chase as Mega Ambler and Mega Trucker checked on the human, the star guardian tried to follow the mystery hero's car but to his dismay he lost sight of them pretty quickly and went back to the park to check on the human's status. Mega Ambler said they were fine just unconscious the wires must've acted as a barrier protecting them from the Hero's attacks.
But just who or what was that hero? that was the question that lingered on the bots minds for the rest of the night.
Riley yawned as she groggily looked over the refrigerator motor a customer brought in to see if it was fixable, or if they needed a new one. "Okay, That's the fourth time you've yawned in the last five minutes, did you get any sleep last night?" Edo asked as he looked away from the Mini-bike he was dismantling.
"I got a little sidetracked watching Mytube videos, next thing I knew it was 2am." Riley said with a sheepish grin, Edo shook his head at her. "I've been there, go get a coffee and try shake yourself awake." Riley hummed and stepped away from her station and walked to the coffee counter in the other garage, when she overhears Mega Trucker telling Jun, Teo, Phoenix fire and Shadow X about what he saw last night.
"...And they kicked the monster down and it made a big explosion!" the boys listened in the dump truck in awe while Shadow X and Phoenix Fire both pouted 'cos they missed the whole thing.
Mega Ambler and Blue Cop meanwhile were quietly talking in the far end of the garage.
Riley couldn't make out what they were saying but it seemed to be a very serious matter as both seemed flummox. Everyone was occupied doing their own thing, Riley walked over to the coffee station and nearly yelped in surprise when she saw a tiny purple car with ninja star on it's front sitting next to the coffee maker!
"Riley?" Blue Cop's voice spoke up behind her Riley quickly grabbed the tiny car and hid behind her back. "Yep?" She turned to look up at him as the cardbot stared at her concerned. "Are you okay? you seemed really off today." Oh damn did she really look that bad? She thought as she tried not to seem so nervous as she spoke up.
"Yeah, I just stayed up later then I planned." Blue Cop hummed as he stared her down; Riley felt her heart thumping against her rib cage before he spoke again. "Okay, I was worried you might be getting ill." Riley said she'll talk to Edo later and see if he'll let her take a nap later.
Blue cop seemed satisfied with that answer and went discuss something with Mega Trucker. While Riley practically sprinted towards her private locker and put the little car away while giving it a nervous glance before closing her locker and going back to work.
=========
Two days later Jun showed up at the scrapyard in a grumpy mood. apparently there was a new kid at school who all the girls; including Anna, were fawning over. And it was driving poor Jun nuts.
Riley chuckled at him causing the kid to pout further "It's not funny!" however the laughter quickly faded when Anna showed up with the new kid Crest; along Teo and Vera.
Immediately Blue Cop and Mega Trucker quickly transformed back into their car forms as Jun and Edo tried to send the other kids away. the scrapyard wasn't a play ground after all. An outraged Vera pointed out that Jun gets to stay! Edo tried to save face by saying that Jun just barges in whenever he pleases, which the blue haired boy offense to.
While Edo and Jun were bickering Riley noticed Crest sneaking into the garage! The Irish woman followed and found the boy looking over a nervous Blue Cop.
Riley immediately walked over and placed herself between him and Blue cop. "You can't be back here." Riley said as she leaned against Blue cop's hood she felt him shudder a little under her but ignored it to as she gave the boy a stern look as Edo and Jun rushed inside and started telling him to get out.
After meeting the boy up close Riley now understood why Jun felt a little threatened by Crest; something about him did feel slightly off about him. However, the situation soon escalated when they heard Anna scream getting everyone's attention.
When they ran outside to see what was wrong, they saw that Cardbot that helped them with Heavy Iron standing on the roof! Teo and Edo were quick to act and ushered the other confused kids into the recently arrived Phoenix Fire and Mega Ambler and they got them away to safety; while Jun and Riley stayed behind the cardbot jumped from the roof and landed in front of them, Riley had a feeling he wasn't there to be friends....
Blue cop came speeding out of the garage and stood in front of the two humans protectively as he confronted the new bot. "Who do we have here, who are you?" he demanded as the the new bot took an offensive stance. "My name is Wild Guardy and I'm here to be king of the meta cardbots." Mega Trucker laughed when he heard this. "King of us? what a joke!"
Blue cop on the other hand looked perplexed. "Hold on, Aren't you on our side?" Jun jumped in reminding Wild Guardy how he helped with Heavy Iron only for the purple bot to snort."Don't be stupid, I just wanted to show the riff-raft whose in charge!" Both Mega Trucker and Blue Cop looked startled "What?" Riley stopped listening when she was distracted by another tiny car this time a red sports car was poking out from between some barrels... Next thing she knew Riley was tackled to the ground by Jun as Wild Guardy attacked!
"Jun!" Blue cop barked the boy nodded and a short fight ensued unfortunately this time around Blue Cop wouldn't come out victorious, Riley Mega Trucker and Jun watch in shock as Wild Guardy got the upper hand on Blue Cop and slashed him and just as it seemed that Wild Guardy was about to finish the star guardian off Riley suddenly jumped in front of Blue Cop.
Wild Guardy was about laugh at her 'tough act' but stopped short when he locked eyes with Riley the bot felt a chill go through him... "Wha-" then Shadow X appeared and fired on Wild guardy before landing down next to his downed friend. "Blue cop, are you alright?" Ninja asked as Mega Trucker inquired when the two of them were on first name terms?
Wild Guardy glared at the three bots and the human woman annoyed that his fight was interrupted yet again, and decided to give it up for now. "Hrm, Another pest joins the fray, Blue Cop. We'll continue this another time..." with that Wild Guardy silently walked away before transforming into his car form, he shot one last lingering glance at Riley before driving off.
Blue Cop was having none of that as he tried to stand chase after Wild Guardy. "Stop right there." he hissed in pain as he collapsed to his knees, Jun and and Riley went over to check on Blue cop as he kept his gazed on the ground, Jun hugged one of Blue cop's leg begged him to say something!
Riley quickly started assessing his wounds, she told Shadow X and Mega Trucker to help get him into the Garage, before calming down and promising Jun that she'll take care of Blue Cop until Edo and others come back.
-Later that night-
Blue Cop woke up with a start he sat up quickly only to regret it when his chest protested, he winced then looked down at his wound was and saw silver streak marring his white and blue paint job, it was an insignificant mark but to Blue Cop it served as a reminder of his failure he looked away from his chest and took in his surroundings.
He was in the main garage. It was dark but his optics quickly adjusted to it, he saw the other bots were sleeping around him Mega Ambler and Phoenix fire were in their truck forms; while Mega Trucker and Shadow X were sitting against the wall, Shadow X had his head on Mega Trucker's shoulder while Edo was on the ground sleeping against Mega Trucker's leg he could hear a the faint sound of a radio playing music somewhere.
However Blue Cop's eyes drifted to the red couch Edo usually had outside; it was dragged inside and judging by the blankets left in disarray someone was recently sleeping there...
Then Blue cop heard it; there through the music was the sound of someone whispering in a scolding tone coming from the customer waiting area, it took a moment for Blue cop to recognize it was Riley's voice but who was she talking to?
Blue Cop carefully got up from the floor and walked over to the door and pressed his ear to the door. "Ya can't follow me here, what if someone catches ya?" Riley's voice hissed Blue Cop assumed Riley was speaking to another human but what followed was a flurry of noises which Blue Cop couldn't quite make out it sounded like small engine revving in anger...
Blue Cop knows this rev he's heard it before, but where? "*Sigh*...I know! But I got work to do here too, please..." The revving died down as the sound of the waiting room's front door opened follow by the sound of tires screeching as something sped away.
Blue Cop panicked when heard Riley's footsteps coming towards the door! He quickly and quietly managed to sneak back to his original spot and laid back down he was almost proud himself.
Until he heard the waiting room door open and Riley walk into the garage started she walking towards the couch then paused before turning to walk over to Blue Cop; he tensed up a bit worried he'd been caught but almost felt his heart sputter when she placed her hand on his arm.
Riley lingered next to him for a moment it almost seemed like the redhead was going say something but decided it wasn't a good time, she removed her hand from Blue Cop's arm and went back to the couch and settled back down to sleep, meanwhile Blue Cop mind went back to that revving...
"Where was it? where was that noise from... it was from?"
Blue Cop's eyes snapped open and he realized that rev was the same one he heard from the Hero's belt...
He quietly sat up and stared at Riley's sleeping form worried, why does Riley know the hero? What her role in all this, was she in danger? He thought back to Wild Guardy's reaction when Riley stared him down, For a second the rogue bot looked almost scared of her, does that mean Riley is dangerous? the whole thing was starting to tire Blue Cop out and soon he fell back to sleep.
Blue cop kneels on the ground after being defeated by Wild Guardy. Jun and Riley were both begging him to get up and fight! But Blue Cop's body refuses to listen! he weakly kneels on the ground as Wild Guardy approaches them with an air of smugness surrounding him.
"Hey, Jun why don't you drop this pile of scrap and switch over to me?" Blue cop looked at the rogue bot shock then at Jun in disbelief, the young boy initially looked like he was going to refuse when he suddenly smiled widely and made a little heart with his hands. "Okay! you're so much cooler then this lame-o, Wild Guardy!" Jun declared as he got into Wild Guardy's vehicle form and the two drove off laughing all the way.
"J-jun?" Blue Cop sputtered out the boys name in shock and before he can fully processed what just happened; another car rolled up in from of him... A red sports car; the hero's car. "Huh?" Blue cop blinked bemused and wondering why that was here?
Blue cop stared at his reflection in car's side widow, which rolled down revealing Riley in the passenger seat?!
She looked at Blue Cop's sorry state and snorted. "I can't believe I thought you were cool." she giggled and turns to the hero in the driver seat with hearts in her eyes as she hug their arm and cuddles them.
"Let's go, luv!~" The hero silently turned to look at Blue Cop, he could feel they were smirking at him as they revved their car's engine and drove off with Riley's excited cheering echoing through the fog. "Riley, Jun! Wait!" Blue called out to them both as he reached his hand out.
"DON'T LEAVE ME BEHIND!?"
[dream end]
The lights suddenly turned on and Blue cop realized he was in the garage and Edo and Jun were staring at him trying not to laugh at his outburst. "Who is leaving you behind?" Jun inquired as an embarrassed Blue cop stood straighter and tried to compose himself.
Edo correctly guessed Blue Cop was having nightmares over his trauma from losing to Wild Guardy. "He got lucky that time, but we'll get him next time, right Blue Cop? "Jun turned to the star guardian confident in his friends abilities, but Blue cop just looked very conflicted before honestly answering that he wasn't sure if he could...
Which worried Jun as he tried to hype Blue Cop up but it seem to fall on deaf ears, before Edo casually mentioned the special training project he and Riley were working on which got the two very interested.
[Cut to after Jun went to School.]
The bots are clearing up the storage room and setting up the holographic projectors, Shadow X looked around the room curiously when he noted someone was missing. "Hey, Riley helped with this right? Where she at?" Edo looked a bit guilty as he answered that Riley taking a personal day. "Is it Lady sickness again?" Mega Trucker guessed as the mechanic shook his head.
"Er, no, um.. This whole thing was way outside of her normal skill set and I kind of put a bit of pressure on her." The bots stared at him disapprovingly.
Edo put his hand up. "I know, I know. Jerk move, but I sent her home as soon as we were done and she has tomorrow off too." The bots took a moment to process this they had noticed Riley looked more worn down lately but she kept insisting she was fine so they didn't pressed it further, it didn't make the worried feeling go away.
(Meanwhile)
Riley was at home staring blankly at her ceiling, she was tired but just could not settle down for the life of her! Besides that holographic training program Edo had roped her into working on all week.
The Irish woman kept having this weird feeling like someone was watching her and it was starting to drive her a little crazy!
And the worst part was? She was right...
Riley cautiously sat up from her bed and looked outside her curtain for a split second she'd seen a white and lavender car drive out of view... That was Wild Guardy, she was damn sure of it!
He's been following her around all freaking week; driving her batty probably hoping she'll let her guard down or something... Well, she had spent the day preparing a little surprise waiting for mister Guardy...
See, while Wild Guardy was watching her, Riley was also watching him, and knew his patrol pattern would circle around her driveway which was U shaped he would circle back every 15 mins, once Guardy was gone this time Riley had set up a little trap up for him...
Once the trap was laid, Riley went back to bed and waited, her eyes felt getting heavier as she anxiously listened to every little sound outside; even the crickets farting. The she heard ever so the familiar sound of tires slowly going down her driveway...
There was a barely audible snap and several loud thwacks! followed by a startled yelp! Riley smirked as the sound of squealing tires hastily speeding away from her house was the last thing she heard before she finally drifted off to sleep.
[later]
Crest was watching an excited Jun leave with Teo after the video game tournament, he was probably headed straight to the scrapyard to brag about his victory to the other bots. "I'm sorry, I wasn't able to get the Metal breath." Crest said as Wild Guardy pulled up behind him. "Don't worry about it, there will be other opportunities...' Wild Guardy assured him.
Crest nodded then turned to face his friend only for his eyes to widen in surprise when he saw the bot's appearance. "*ahem*...Why are you pink?" the boy inquired; Wild Guardy was covered in neon pink paint courtesy of Riley's trap that pelted him with several balloons filled with paint, the bot looked away embarrassed. "I'd rather not talk about it..."
[A few hours later]
Riley had woken up at around 8pm, she was still feeling a bit groggy but not nearly as bad as she did before... Well, almost when she went to stretch she felt a pain in her side and found a small car in her bed, a police car to be exact. "Seriously?" She huffed placing it on her bed's headboard that doubled as a shelf then turned her phone's light on.
She winced seeing a small car shaped impression on her thigh. "That's bloody nice." She huffed before deciding since she was awake and didn't feel like cooking she might as well to get up head to the store.
The last thing Riley was expecting to find in her driveway was Blue Cop, the star guardian was in his bot form curiously examining the paint stains on her driveway and nearby trees before he noticed her watching him. "Oh uh, hello." Blue cop greeted her shyly as Riley cocked a brow curious why he was here? She figured he be busy training.
Unless...
"Did the program not work? I'm sorry, I'm not very tech savvy! I told Edo that befo-" She started rambling which caused Blue Cop to put his hands up. "Oh, the training worked perfectly in fact better than perfect!" He explained what happened during his session and syncing with Jun and unlocking a powerful new ability.
Needless say, Riley was impressed the results! She wasn't really expecting it to go like that. "And here I thought turning Wild Guardy pink was the highlight of the day." she said haphazardly causing Blue cop to look at her startled. "I beg your pardon?"
Riley realized what she said, and reluctantly revealed Wild Guardy had been stalking her for the last week or so, that didn't sit well with Blue cop who took a few moments to process this new information. "Why didn't you say anything to me or the others?" Riley didn't really know what to say on that.
Like, this wasn't two ding bat humans on a moped trying to rob her; this was giant robot that could've killed her if he wanted to.... But he didn't, 'cos Wild Guardy knew something was off about Riley and she knew he knew and she had a sinking suspicion that Blue cop was starting to pick up on it too.... Maybe she should just tell him.
Riley tried muster her courage but the moment was interrupted by Blue cop getting a call on his comm, he held a finger up as Riley stared at him warily as the call and he looked down at her with a serious look.
"Teo's missing."
[Cut to Blue Cop driving to the meet up spot.]
"What's that on your leg?" Blue cop spoke up trying to ease the tension in his cab, Riley who was carefully scanning the passing scenery for any sign of Teo on the way to meet the others.
"Hm?" Riley briefly glanced at his eyes which briefly glanced at Riley's thighs noticing the strange impression on her left leg. "That marking on your leg, it kind of looks like my lights." Riley eyes widened when she remembered impression on her leg.
"Oh.. that, I was sorting through my Hot Wheels collection and fell asleep on one of them." A very flustered Blue Cop almost came to a dead stop in the middle of traffic when Riley said 'Hot Wheels" apparently that was not only a term of endearment.... but also a very racy brand of magazines on Machina. (basically the cardbot equivalency of playboy or penthouse.)
Of course humans wouldn't know this, so Riley was left pondering why Blue Cops eyes suddenly turned pink and his cab felt a tad warmer as they met up with Jun, Anna and the other bots. (Edo wasn't there he was busy tearfully fixing the giant hole his store room wall.)
Jun explained they were playing hide and seek with a few other kids, when the street lights started coming on, so they decided it was time to call it a night and go home. The other kids left but Jun and Anna still couldn't find Teo; even when they yelled his name and said the game was over and to come out.
No response.
They were worried he went to find a hiding place in the woods when kids aren't supposed to go out there at night. Riley, the kids and the Bots decided to split up to search for Teo.
Riley was with Shadow X, Jun was with Blue Cop, Mega Ambler went with Fire Phoenix while Anna and Mega Trucker stayed in the park in case Teo wandered out on his own.
"So, are you feeling better? 'Cos you've looked pretty tired lately." Shadow X asked as he looked down at Riley who was surveying the woods for any sign of Teo. "Well, I was feeling a bit better, until this situation came up." She looking up at the ninja bot as Jun and the other's voices echoed calling out Teo's name in the distance.
Shadow X was going to ask Riley what she and Blue Cop were doing before they showed up at the park, 'cos he and the others noticed the star guardian's flustered state when the two arrived at the park, when he though he heard footsteps and immediately assumed it was Teo and ran up ahead before Riley could stop him.
Leaving her alone in the woods that were slowly getting darker by the minute... Wonderful. Riley continued looking for Teo when she noticed a something shining on the ground...
Well more flashing she aimed her light at it saw one of the tiny cars, this time it was a blue snow coach it was flashing its lights at Riley; Obviously telling her to come follow it before driving off leaving a small ice trail behind that quickly melted under the summer heat.
Riley followed the little Snow coach and it lead her straight to Teo who was hiding behind a log.
Riley was about to call out to her when the boy noticed her, his eyes were wide with fear as he frantically started shaking his head at her, then Riley heard a distorted growing and realized they weren't alone out here...
Riley cautiously approached ignoring Teo's silent protests and crouched down next to the boy, she carefully glanced over the log and saw one of the techno-organic amalgamations it might have been a bear at some point given it's size, it was sniffing around the clearing, there was no point in trying to hide it already knew they were there it was just waiting for one of them to run.
Riley knew this 'cos she's seen it a hundred times, and they couldn't stay here forever, Jun and the others will find them eventually and that will be even more disastrous!
Riley realized she had no other choice now, maybe it would be better if everyone find out sooner than later, hopefully they'll be able understand why she had to keep this to herself, with that Riley stood up and much to Teo's horror hopped over the log.
He tried grab her arm to stop her, but Riley shot him a reassuring look before marching towards the monster it noticed her and started growling at her. "Yeah... ya already know who I am, don't'cha ya gruesome?" Riley said with smirk as the creature stood up on it's hind legs; towering over her and let out a vicious roar.
It's roar was cut short by a red light suddenly whizzing by hitting the monster in the face and body a few times before flying over to Riley's hand as a belt appeared around her waist, the light in Riley's hand turned out to be a small red car that she loaded into the belt.
"DRIVER READY?" the belt asked as Riley grabbed the handle bar on the belt. "Let's go." she revved the handle before being enveloped in a blinding light, that caused Teo to cover his eyes when the faded and he uncovered the the boy twas stunned to see Riley was gone and the hero was standing in her place. "Riley?" Teo said completely stunned the hero shot his a knowing glance before rushing the creature.
[I can't writ fight scenes very well imagine an epic fight scene going on.]
(meanwhile)
Blue cop and Jun were scolding Shadow X for ditching Riley and now making it two missing people they were looking for! When an explosion caused everyone to jump, Jun and the bots regrouped and followed the noise there they saw a trail of broken trees and one of those Techno-organic monster from a few weeks ago standing a few feet away from a terrified Teo; ready to charge at the poor boy.
Jun was about to use the Metal breath when a red blur suddenly jumped out of the mess of trees and before anyone could register what was happening? the hero was in the monsters jaws! Having blocked the monster from eating Teo by using their own body as a shield their armor let off an energy discharge as they seemingly fell unconscious.
Teo eyes widened horror when he sees this and yelled out. "RILEY!" Causing everyone freeze then look back shock as the Hero/Riley was throw around like a rag doll before the monster tossed her aside, only for Riley's eyes to suddenly snap back open a few seconds later.
She growled shot a seething glare at the monster, while she used the momentum from being thrown to bounce off a nearby tree and flew back at the monster delivering a powerful kick at the bear creature it tried to block the blow with it arms.
The force from Riley's kick was so powerful that it caused trees around them to shake and nearly knocked Jun over if he hadn't been hanging on to Blue Cop's leg, a small crater appeared under the monster feet as it's arms finally gave way with a sicking crack.
Riley the grabbed hold of the control core on it's neck and ripped it of the bear's body crushing it in her hand as she went flying again, Riley hit the ground hard; bouncing two times before sliding into a large rock.
Everyone went running towards her in a panic. "Riley!" Blue Cop called out as he cautiously crouched down next to Riley, Jun and Teo followed suit. "Can you hear me, are you okay? Say Something" the star guardian begged as he hesitantly reached out to her, Riley lifted her head and looked up at him and then everyone else staring at her in shock and worry.
"Um...I can explain?" she said as her armor deactivated, everyone relaxed seeing she was alive... but then the questions started coming in at a rapid pace... Riley really started regretting not telling them sooner.
"Oh, I haven't been this nervous since my 5th year teacher made me read that speech in front everyone..." Riley thought as she stood in Jun's yard with the kids staring at her in awe and waiting in anticipation, Teo was spending the night at Jun's and Anna was waiting for her family's chauffeur to come pick her up.
Jun and Teo were talking so fast she only got bits and pieces of what happened in the woods, so Anna was completely blindsided by the revelation that Riley was the infamous hero from the urban legends!
Riley took a deep breath to calm herself down and began talking. "If we're doin' this, I need ya to promise ya won't tell anyone about this, do ya understand?" The kids promised as the Irish woman nodded and explained everything.
the forge, the belt, the amalgamations and her partners. "Wait, Partners? Someone else knows besides us?" Jun asked surprised Riley chuckles. "No, when I mean partners I don't mean people, I meant..." Riley notices Anna's ride home showing up and decided now wasn't a good time.
"Ah, I think maybe I'll introduce ya all tomorrow, for now? I think yer parents want ya inside." The kids groaned in dismay but Riley told them she wasn't going anywhere and to wait til' tomorrow.
Riley started walking away from Jun's house felling a tad light headed, she was half a block away when she felt a gaze on her back and look behind her. She saw the tiny police car from her bedroom tailing behind her. "Hey, Gambit." the Irish woman greeted.
Riley crouched down and held her hand out, the tiny car hopped into her hand as it cautiously beeped at her. "Is this a good idea?" Riley thought it over for a moment as the little patrol car drove up her arm and rested on her shoulder.
"No, I don't think so." She answered honestly before standing up and continuing her trek down the street, Gambit beeped at her again and the redhead sighed. "Yeah, I'll get something to eat before headin' home, you're such a mother hen." the little vehicle revved at her slightly nettled.
The sound of a larger car approaching from behind got Riley's attention Gambit quickly hid by hopping into the hood of her hoodie, Riley saw Blue Cop pulling up to her without a word he opened his passenger for her. " Did Jun send you to make sure I got home?" Riley asked cocking her brow.
"Erm, No. He thinks I'm looking for Heavy Iron right now." He said keeping his eyes forward as drove out of the residential area and into the city limits. "Well, since ya got me here you might as well take me to dinner." Blue cop's eyes turned pink and his cab felt warmer.
"I- uh..Wha-what?" he sputtered as Riley started the giggled at how flustered he got, she told Blue Cop to relax she was just playing with him; though she was serious about getting something to eat.
They stopped by a drive thru and Riley ate outside at small picnic area they found while Blue Cop watched her in his bot form; luckily this place was obscured by a heavy treeline so no one would see a 13 foot tall robot sitting down on the ground curiously watching a woman eating tacos at 10 pm.
"Was that who you were talking to a few nights back?" Blue Cop asked suddenly causing Riley to look at him inquisitively, he explained how he heard her talking to someone the night after his fight with Wild Guardy. "So was it them, you partner?" He asked again as Riley shifted in her seat and reached around into her hood.
Blue cop was confused about what she was doing as the redhead smirked" Got'cha!" She pulled this tiny police car out of her hoodie and placed it on the table for Blue cop to see. "What is...what is that?" He pointed down at the tiny car and looked a Riley baffled.
"That's Gambit." Riley introduced Blue cop curiously leaned in for a closer look as the little police car nervously whirred at him and backed up towards Riley's arm. "He's a crew car, they act as keys for my transformations." Riley explained as Blue cop hummed tried to touch Gambit only for the tiny car to flash its lights and blare it's sirens at him before driving up Riley's arm and hiding in her hood again.
"They're usually well behaved, but lately? they've been a tad jealous."
"Jealous?"
"I've been hanging around with you guys a lot and I guess they're worried you'll take me away."
"Oh."
Gambit cautiously peeked from Riley hoodie it was obvious he was observing Blue Cop as Riley explained the different types of cars she had, and how she uses the crews to act as watchdogs around Mowtown; They give her info on all the things going on around the city in fact one was probably headed to tell her about the whole Teo situation before Jun even called Blue cop for help.
"I see." the star guardian said before asking where exactly the crew cars came from? "The forge, don't ask how though. All I know is it's got somethin' to do with my emotions." Riley said as she balled up the fast food bag and tossed it like basket ball into the nearby trash bin.
"Ah, six points!" she cheered as stood up from the table Blue cop turned back into his car form and opened his passenger door for her, Blue cop drove Riley home where she introduced the rest of her crew cars to him.
=====
Harvey: bit on the shorter side I know, writer's block is nipping me in the arse!
So introducing the crew cars to the kids and other bots went better then Riley expected; they all love the tiny cars especially the cardbots, they particularly grew attached to the ones looked liked them.
Mega Trucker awe cooed over Bullhead who was a little red dump truck while Fire phoenix and Mega Ambler quickly bonded with the ambulance (Pharma) and the Firetruck (Blazer) of the responder trio, though Shadow X was little annoyed that there were no flyers he quickly got over it when he met the ninja car Fade.
Anna thought the crew cars were adorable and quickly became attached to an pinkish-orange car named Flara, Riley warned her to be careful since Flara was a fire user and can combust when upset or in battle mode, While Teo got to know Weiss the little snow coach that helped Riley track him down and rescue him.
And Jun was being followed around by Slimer a green car with a purple splotch on it's hood apparently it can excrete various type of well..slime, when in attack mode.
No surprises Riley decided to assigned those three cars to protect the kids and act as her eyes and ears in case anything bad happens to or around them.
Now lets move on to today...
Riley was in the main Garage watching a cheesy monster movie with the Carbots, who were all shaking in their boots, heck Blue Cop was cowering behind Riley who sat in her folding chair looking at him and the other bots in disbelief.
"You guys are seriously afraid of this movie?" She ask with a snort they literally saw something much scarier than this the other day! "Are there really monsters like that on Earth?" Shadow X asked in terror while Phoenix fire denied there being any monsters like that on Machina.
"Yer all messin' with me right now, aren't ya?" Riley hissed in annoyance as Edo approached them with his hand up. "Guy guys, relax. It's just a movie, It's all cgi and some guy in a costume." The mechanic explained as he turned off the projector.
The Bots calmed down and were trying to play off their fear off as acting, Edo obviously didn't believe them as he was putting the projector and the screen away, the bots quickly crowded around Riley with nervous expressions."Seriously. Are there monsters like that on Earth?" Fire Phoenix ask quietly so Edo didn't hear them.
Riley looked at them all for a moment before taking a sip of the milk tea she forgot she was holding; she was gonna have to choose her answer very carefully. "Um...Well, not on this Earth." She said pointing down at the ground.
Before any of the bots could process or question what she meant by This Earth? Jun came running in yelling Blue Cop's name and announcing to everyone that they going monster hunting!
This caused the bots to freak out and try to hide behind random places and Riley, Jun watched them all baffled, "What the hecks going with them?" he said pointing his thumb at the terrified bots; Riley just looks at Blue cop and Fire Phoenix who were trying to cower behind her, she shook her head and explained they were watching monster movies all day and the bots weren't fans...
[Cut to later that night]
Edo driving the kids to the construction site where the monster sighting occurred with Riley following behind on her bike. Just before they left to pick up Anna and Teo; Jun theorized the monster was either a Cardbot or an amalgamation. However, Riley put a damper on that second theory; since her cars would've alerted her after the first attack.
"Also, don't mention Amalgamations around Edo, he doesn't about that." Riley looked a bit guilty as Edo came up to them asking if they were ready to go?
When they got to the construction site, Riley was surprised to see Crest waiting for them, he was joining them on their monster excursion.
Anna nervously held on to Riley's arm as they wandered around the dark and foggy construction yard, "Is it really okay for us to be here?" She asked looking around nervously as Crest held his phone up using it's flashlight to search around. "Yeah, construction was put on hold due to all the accidents going on, so the only thing around here is.."
There was a twig snap everyone aimed lights in the direction and got met a peeved off raccoon that hissed at them causing everyone; except for Riley and Crest, to recoil in fear as the teal haired boy continued his sentence. "...The wildlife, like that raccoon." the group continued their trek deeper into the site and Riley started feeling nervous like they weren't alone...
Anna was surprised to see so many animals around as Edo explained that used to be a lot of them around especially near the scrapyard, but due to urban development they all got scared away.
"Not all of them, we still get the occasional turkey, rabbit or Coyote" Riley added as Crest pointed at footprint in the dirt and mentioned it was bigger than "that other robot's foot print". Riley rolled her eyes as Anna, Teo and Jun tried to poorly cover up the incident that happened a few weeks ago...
The Irish woman figured out Crest was in cahoots with Wild Guardy a while ago he wasn't fooling her. However, Riley was soon put on high alert by one of her Crew cars that she sent to the construction site ahead of everyone else, it drove out of hiding and started frantically nudging at her feet; the same time Blue Cop started to warn Jun about an approaching threat.
"Get out right now" A voice bellowed from beyond the fog causing everyone to look around frantically trying to figure out where it was coming from? when suddenly a steel girder came flying out from the fog and impaled the roof of a nearby truck!
As the same voice from before roared "LEAVE THIS FOREST NOW!" an eerie silhouette resembling a long necked monster appeared causing all the kids (Sans Crest) and Edo to freak; Riley snatched the flashlight away from Jun and aimed it at the monster, which turned out to be an excavator cardbot. "GET OUT! DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME?!" he bellowed as he drove after the group causing them to run.
Jun pointed at a dump truck and told everyone to hide under it, The kids managed to hid under there easily, Riley and Edo? Not some much, Edo couldn't get under 'cos his moobs were too big! And Riley's front half just barely got under the truck, but her butt kept getting caught on the step-bar, Both she and Edo pulled themselves out from under the truck and ran for the storm drain and hid in there!
The excavator chased the two adults and glared at them and tried to hit them with his scoop, but the concrete drain was too narrow for it to reach them, Edo and Riley started army crawling away! Only for the excavator to transform into his bot form and grab Edo and Riley manage to get under a grate she so he wasn't able to get her, she heard the Excavator say his name was Dexter and he was the protector of the forest.
Riley crawled out of the storm drain from the other side, she listening to Dexter go on about urban development destroying Ecosystems and harming animals, While Crest called him out on his violent tactics being just as bad; both sides had valid points. Dexter didn't like that as he threw Edo away! (Riley sent a few her cars to go check on him.)and got his weapon out.
Riley realized this situation was about to get messy and decided maybe the Driver was needed here as along as Crest didn't see her transform. "Streaker." She called out as her belt appeared around her waist, a red crew car appeared and Riley locked it into her belt.
"Driver ready?"
The belt announce in a quieter voice. "Let's go." Riley hit ignition and in a flash the Driver was sitting in her place, unfortunately she wasn't fast enough to stop Crest from getting hurt, but she did give Dexter a good kick in the face that sent him stumbling backwards as she landed protectively in front of the kids. Ri, Er...Driver! You're here to help us?" Jun said running up to her in awe as The hero nodded.
Crest's eyes widened at the sight of her. "Who are yo-" he was cut off by Wild Guardy suddenly arriving and angerly ramming into Dexter before transforming and getting his sword out. "You all better run..." Wild Guardy growled keeping his gaze on Dexter
Jun told Anna and Teo to get Crest to safety as he and Driver stood back to deal with the bots, Dexter pulled himself up and seem to recognize Wild Guardy. "You..." But he was cut off the the enraged bot.
"You injured a human, You're disgrace to the cardbots!?" Before Riley or Jun could act Wild Guardy raised his sword and slashed Dexter across the face, the yellow bot howled in pain. "Be prepared Dexter, Wild Guardy is here to to take you down-" Jun suddenly came running in between the two bots with Riley standing close by in case either tried to attack the kid.
"If he hates humans now he won't open up to us no matter what we do! Please just leave it to us." Jun pleaded as Wild Guardy looked at him baffled. "You said us?" Jun called out Blue Cop to confront the knight bot.
"Get out of my way Blue cop, Dexter is mine to punish."
"Wild Guardy punishment won't solve this, can't you see that?"
"How you do things is none of my business that pile of scrap HURT MY FRIEND!?"
"What?"
Blue Cop gawked at Wild Guardy in shock as Dexter made a run for it, "You can't get away from me!" Wild Guardy bellowed as he tried to chase down the injured bot but Blue Cop tripped him. "Cut it out now!" Wild Guardy watch Dexter disappear behind a hill which enraged him more.
"Don't you dare try and command me!? he snarled and whipped around to attack Blue Cop who Jun called back into the metal breath and called out Mega Ambler to deal with Wild Guardy. "Diver! Mega Ambler I leave this to you!".
Mega Ambler nodded as he held Wild Guardy back as Jun ran after Dexter. "You're dealing with us now!" the Medic boasted Wild Guardy knocked Mega Ambler back and tried to slash at the medic when the sound of an engine revving behind him caught him off guard...
"Finish line strike!"
An unknown voice announced causing Wild Guardly to whip around just in time to block the Driver's kick and Wild Guardy looked at the hero startled. "What in the fresh hel-" He narrowly dodged Mega Ambler's fist coming at him!
Wild Guardy between Mega Ambler and...what he assumed was mini-Cardbot both waiting for him to make a move Wild Guard was about to use his ultimate attack when he was blindsided again by a strike to the face...
Before he could register what just happened? He got hit again! and again and again; Wild Guardy looked around wildly trying to figure out who or what was attacking him?! his first thought was Shadow X, but he heard no trace of the helicopter bot being nearby.
After being hit for the the umpteenth a frustrated Wild Guardy finally manage to smack one of the things hitting him! He looked down at what it was and his eyes widened when he saw a tiny white car laying broken on the ground, the car let out a pained little whir before disappearing a flash of light...
As Wild Guardy was processing what he just saw he noticed he was completely surround by more of those little cars all of them were looking at him... Feeling their hostility and seeing he was severely out numbered Wild Guardy wisely chose to retreat.
"Sorry about your Crew car." Mega Ambler said somberly as Riley's Armor deactivated. "Don't worry, my crews don't die they just get teleported back to the forge for repairs." the Irish woman explained as Jun and Blue cop regrouped with them, Dexter got away so the next coming days were gonna be very interesting.
It's been a rough couple days, first off they lost Dexter who could be anywhere since retreating under ground! And second Riley was starting to suspect that Edo may be on to her after he found one of her crew cars sitting around the garage! Luckily she manage to convince him it was one of Jun or Teo's toys they probably left behind and promised to get it back to them.
However, any annoyance she had for the car getting caught disappeared when it started telling her about the holes it found while on patrol... Riley assumed it meant the sinkholes Dexter was leaving around the city.
"Where? Show me." The car lead her towards a small overgrown area a bit away from the city (it was 15 minutes before the scrapyard closed Edo didn't mind her taking off early), Riley crouched down and examined the hole... this was too small to be Dexter's doing, but it certainly wasn't natural either.
Riley carefully looked around the area and found an alarming amount of scrap metal and dead electronics scattered around the hole, one would think they were dumped here but judging by the drag marks in the the dirt it was safe to say it was brought here from other places... And unfortunately Riley already knew why and for what, there was an Amalgamation on the loose! And it was using the scrap to add to it body.
Her ignition belt appeared around her waist as Riley called out for Streaker she and transformed into the Armored Driver before hopping down the hole it was dark and musky smelling down there.
The only light was from the holes entrance, Riley narrowed her eyes as she moved forwards and tried see ahead of herself but it was pitch black! She was debating leaving to grab a flash light, before remembering she had headlights on her chest plate...
"I'm dumb, Erm...How do I turn these on again?" after five minutes of Riley pawing and fiddling at her chest armor the lights turned on; nearly blinding Riley in the process. "Damn those things are bright!" Riley hissed resting against the wall and blinking a few times to make the spots in her vision disappear before continuing on with her investigation...
Riley was almost impressed with how long this tunnel went, though she was a little worried about it's structural integrity as she saw rock and dirt crumbling from the ceiling and could sometimes feel the dirt shift under her feet... It would be bad for Riley if this all suddenly collapsed in on her.
It was another 15 minutes then Riley noticed light seeping in from a small cavern up ahead... it could be the Amalgamation's nest she started walking at a much slower and cautious pace.
However before Riley could get any closer the cavern she was interrupted by a call from Blue Cop, the little green gem like lamp on top of Riley's helmet lit up and projected a form of Blue Cop's Head appeared in front of her.
"Riley, we've located Dexter we might need your help."
"I'm sorry I can't help, I'm dealing with my own problem at the moment..."
"Why are you whispering?...Are you fighting a monster right now?!"
"Not quite, it doesn't know I'm here ye-"
Just then a giant claw jutted out from the wall grabbing Riley and cutting their call off, much to Blue Cop's dismay as he kept trying to call Riley back but the signal kept coming back as lost. Blue Cop stopped on his way to Dexter's location.
He was stuck...
Go after Dexter or go search for Riley?
He knows she told him not to worry about her and she could handle the amalgamations on her own, she's been doing so for 8 years! But... Phoenix Fire's voice kept calling out for back up and Blue Cop quickly went to his fellow cardbot's location.
Meanwhile
After a tough struggle, Riley managed to free herself from the amalgamation's claws though her armor was severely damaged; it gave off a purple discharge and parts of it briefly turned grey, Riley winced as she managed to climb on a small ledge and was now staring down at the amalgamation as it frantically searched around for her, yeah... this thing was blind.
Riley theorized it was either a mole or a gopher...as it seemed to rely on heavily sound to see where she was, so she figured confusing it would do the trick while she tried to located the main core and host, which was going to be difficult with all that scrap littering it's body.
She called a few of her cars to honk and drive around while she attacked the amalgamation from different sides but found it was too hard for her punches and kicks to do any real damage... She was gonna need to brawn up.
Riley removed Streaker from her belt and replaced him with Bullhead (her dump truck) and revved her belt as it announced.
"Armor type: Heavy duty!"
in a flash Riley armor had changed it was heavier and tougher as the Mole soon found out when it tried to slash her and it's claws broke!
This caused it to panic and run down one of it's tunnels, Riley gave chase, though she was much slower in this form; it makes up for it with devastating strength as whenever Riley caught up with the mole she would smack it so hard pieces of it's armored body would fall off, until she found the weak spot where the core was.
Unbeknownst to Riley she and the mole were right next to the fight Jun and the others were having with Dexter, She only found this out when she was getting her finisher.
"Spiral Drill strike!"
A drill appeared on Riley's right leg as she jumped up and kicked the Mole through the tunnel wall and straight into Dexter who was holding on to Shadow X.
Riley ended hitting Dexter in the face again knocking the bot completely off his feet and stunning him for a few seconds, this gave Jun time to call out Phoenix Fire who used his water cannon to distract the excavator and had Mega Ambler disable Dexter's drill, Allowing Jun and Blue cop to finish off him with infinity force and finally sealing the injured bot.
While their fight was over everyone turned their attentions back towards Riley in time to see her digging around in the Amalgamation's body tearing bits out out of it before ripping the parasitic control core out.
The core snarled at Riley as she threw it on the ground and crushed it under her foot then pulled it's host out as it's amalgamation body quickly disintegrated; just as she suspected a... a mole. Riley poked it, Poor little guy was all dehydrated and shaken up.
Jun came running up to her, he along with the bots were staring. "Whoa, I didn't you could change forms!" Jun exclaimed as he stared at her in awe. "Only when I'm in a pinch..." Riley said tiredly as she briefly glanced up towards the rooftops where she though she saw something up there but saw nothing as Jun tried to look at the mole in her hands, he'd never seen one before and surprised how tiny it was.
Later that night...
Riley and Edo were leaning close to Dexter to see if they were successful in repairing his eyes "Okay, tell us what you see?" Edo said as he started waving at him Dexter stared at the two mechanics disbelief. "An angel... and a waving Gorilla?" Riley looked a little flattered while Edo looked at the excavator gobsmacked; no one noticed the little glare Blue cop shot Dexter as Jun snickered.
"Looks like his eyes are fixed!" He joked as Edo looked at the kid unimpressed.
Dexter looked around the room at the other bots. "I want to thank you all and I really owe you an apology." He said looking down at the floor. "Hey, don't worry about it, we're all good now." Mega Trucker assured but Dexter still looked troubled.
"Is something on your mind? you can tell us." Blue cop inquired Dexter just looked sad. "Don't worry about me... But the animals in the forest, what'll happen to them once the road is finished?" Jun and Riley looked at each other and nodded. "Come with us! I have something to show you."
The bots followed Jun directions and drove out of the city and brought Dexter to a stretch of road with a small grotto built down into the bottom of the bridge Dexter seemed surprised by the sight as Blue cop explained to him that the road was built with wildlife safety in mind.
"Humans have come up with ways to protect the animals too." Edo chimed in as Blue cop transformed and carefully helped Riley down into grotto below where she opened a little box she was keeping that mole she rescued in, the little guy rush out and quick dug back into the ground as soon it was free.
Dexter took a moment to take all this in. "I see the human's of this planet have shown a little consideration." Jun looked at him hopeful "Do you feel better now?" he pressed as Dexter nodded. "Yes, I totally do! I'll join you as a part of your team now." Jun cheered in victory.
And soon it was time for everyone to head home Edo drove Jun home while Blue Cop offered to drive Riley back to hers, though he seemed to be taking the scenic route this time. "Are you okay?" Blue Cop asked as Riley looked out his window. "Hm?" she turned a tired glance towards his eyes that were looking back at her concerned.
"You seemed more tired after using that bulkier form."
"Oh.. yeah, that form takes a lot of energy to use."
"Is that normal?"
Not really, I'm just not at right the level to use them at the moment. the monsters are getting stronger...the forge says I need to amp up my training...."
Blue Cop hummed he was going to ask about what kind of training she does? But Riley had fallen asleep against his window, when he pulled into Riley's drive way, Blue Cop didn't really want to wake her...But he didn't really want the others grilling him on where he was all night...
Cut to Riley being carried into her house by someone, the crew cars seemed taken aback by the sight... It was a human body but with Blue cop's head, it took a moment for them to realize it was Blue cop!
A few cars whirred at him inquisitively. "It's an avatar, it helps me get into small places." He explained before asking where Riley's room was? The cars lead him to a room, it was little cluttered with unfinished sketches and a few clothes scattered around.
Riley's bed was a curious sight it looked like it was designed with the crew cars in mind, there were tiny ramps on the sides that lead up to the headboard that was made to look like mini parking garage as a few of the cars were already asleep in there.
Blue Cop carefully placed Riley down on the bed and tucked her in he paused briefly to carefully move her bangs to the side to examine the scar on her brow, he felt a pang of guilt and anger when he though back to that the helplessness he felt he just froze up while everyone tried to help Riley, he though she was dying....
Blue Cop shook his head it wasn't a good time to be thinking about that right now, he ask Riley about this training she needs but for now it was time for her to rest.
[Rewind to earlier that day Teo, Anna and a reluctant Jun were explaining who the Armored Driver was to Crest(without giving away Riley's identity of course) after he kept asking about it.
They explained the rumors and were surprised he never heard about them as they were very common topic around Motown, heck if your lucky enough you might catch glances of their red car driving around the city at night. Unknown to the three while they talking Crest wasn't the only one listening.
Wild Guardy was in a room nearby taking in everything they were saying and though his face remained neutral his inner fanboy was getting more and more hyped up with every word. "A mysterious masked hero?.... Parasitic monsters?...A cool car... ?!" Wild Guardy's eyes were sparkling in excitement; especially while he was watching the fight with Dexter and saw the Driver in action!
Though he tried no to show it he was was practically vibrating with excitement, needless to say. Crest was surprised to find a large amount of Armored Driver pictures and news articles hung up around Wild Guardy's room.]
[Blue Cop goes to talk to Riley when he notices a mini version of himself sitting on her on her desk, on closer inspection Blue cop realized it was stuffed toy.]
Blue Cop, points at the plushy: Wha...What's that?
Riley: Oh, it's cute right? I made that over the weekend.
Blue Cop, flustered: It's supposed to be... me?
Riley: Yep, I went to one of those build a plushy stores and made that, now I get to hug ya even when yer not around....Do you like it?
Blue Cop, all choked up (But also low-key jealous): It's good.
Dark au: Dark Cop (Aka: Evil! Blue Cop) kidnapping Riley, He caught her off guard while she was at home taking out the trash, he parked his vehicle form a feet a down the road from her house under a street light.
And since Blue cop had been missing for days Riley's first instinct was to go to towards him, but then she noticed something very off, Blue Cop's normally pristine white paint was now a ominous dark grey and covered in scratches and mud...
This caused alarm bells to go off in Riley's head, she started slowly backing away with the intention to alert Jun and the others; not noticing Blue Cop's avatar behind her until it was too late! Blue cop tasered her knocking Riley out and carrying her unconscious body back to his vehicle form.
He apologized to Riley for being so rough with her before happily declaring he was taking her to their "New home"...
My fake Digimon: The Sherbetmon trio, Rainbow, Berry and Mintchoco. They are based off of Sherbet and ice cream cups, Sherbetmon are a subspecies of Frigimon. Which is why they look similar, They are much smaller then Frigimon standing at about 4'4".
Sherbetmon are normally pretty docile in nature, but do not provoke them, these little guys can pack a mean punch when threatened.
They are Ice and vaccine Digimon.
And Champion level.
Their attacks are:
Sticky Cherry bomb: they pluck the Cherries off their heads and toss it at enemies, the cherry sticks to the target and blows up coating them in a sticky syrup that slows them down. The Cherry grows back in a few seconds.
Cookie shield: Creates a giant cookie to act as a temporary barrier.
Whip dream: Creates a puff of whipped cream that they throw it can cause enemies to fall asleep when in contact with it, It can also heal allies without putting them to sleep.
Slush wave: A frozen wave of sticky slush crashes into the target.
------------------------------
Sherbetmon's ultimate form is Sundaedramon. A Sherbetmon and Sundaedramon can fusion digivolve into LordAmbrosiamon (based off Ambrosia salad)
[The bots are playing the word game again, Wild Guardy is trying to get Black Hook to say the word "paranoid".]
Wild Guardy: You have two scrub gloves. That makes a...
Black Hook: ...pair.
Wild Guardy: Someone bugs you, you get...
Black Hook: ...annoyed.
Wild Guardy: Put 'em together, put 'em together.
Black Hook : Are you saying someone be stealing me scrubby gloves to annoy me?
Wild Guardy, blinks:
Black Hook: You know, 'tis probably Heavy Iron! He's tryin' to get me! He thinks I be sneakin' paint thinner into his soap at night and puttin' sugar in his fuel cans.
Wild Guardy: Okay, and he thinks that way because he's...
[The bots and humans are playing a word game, Riley has been trying to get Edo to say the word "artificial".]
Riley: when somethin' is fake, it's…
Edo: …Wrestling?
[Riley facepalms, meanwhile in the audience.]
Buffalo crush: Wrestlings fake?
Wild Guardy: Shush.
[back on stage]
Blue Cop, holding a stopwatch: Time's almost up!
Riley: Ah...Oh! Edo, you remember that cheerleader you dated? The one with the great body and (makes cupping motions on her chest) ... the big dumplings?~
Edo, hangs head down in disappointment: ...Artificial.
[It's Early morning Jun is walking to the scrapyard and is hit by the smell of pancakes, he follows the smell and finds Edo and Riley gathered around a car engine hooked up to a generator.]
Jun: What are you doing?
Edo: Mmm, makin' some engine-block pancakes. If we can keep these down, we'll be sitting pretty.
[Mega Ambler is about to have an aneurysm.]
Riley, shaking a bottle of pancake mix: Want some?
