It's Simply Robotics

Chapter 17: First Cycle Out

"Ooo, Megatronus look!" Megatronus blinked before scoffing in astonishment. There, surrounded by dark, grimy shops, was a music shop. MoonStrider tugged on his arm roughly. "Can we Can we?!" How could he say no?

"Fine, but we can't get anything." He gave in, but it was fine after hearing her delighted squeal. MoonStrider sprinted into the store, diving out of site before he could fallow her. Megatronus rolled his optics before going after her. At least he didn't have to worry about her; she was a strong femme and could take care of herself just fine.

Megatronus huffed. Being seen in a music store would do wonders on his reputation. He just hoped no one would see him.

MoonStrider didn't give a damn as she strolled through the place, moving carefully between delicate instruments. Her gold optics sparkled as she spotted several instruments she had never seen before. She moved around spotting a quite a few she knew and several that she had mastered during her time in Iacon. She plucked a few strings in an EM-Guitar, smiling as each note played in tune. She circled around the Violins, all different from the other, one even had a glass handle.

What such fine instruments were doing in a place like Kaon, MoonStrider would never know. But she was happy about it. Her helm turned as Megatronus entered the store with a chime of the bell. She smiled and waved as he spotted her. Megatronus smiled and waved back, but didn't approach. The instruments in the shop were too close together and he was bound to bump into something and break it. He just walked down the wider center aisle.

Then she saw it.                        

The Grand Electric Piano.

OoOoOoOoOoO

HyperDrive had thought the cycle would be just like the others, slow and boring. What business was there in Kaon? A city filled with military class mechs and criminals, none of these bots knew a B major scale from a hag squealing on a corner street. Why his boss sent him here, he would never know. And he was not happy about it.

The bell for the door rang, and a bot walked in.

HyperDrive had to double take as he saw the hottest femme he had ever seen. Round hips and chassis, thick legs that went on for miles. She had a face to remember and aura of power and promiscuity. His jaw hit the floor as he spotted the wings twitching on her back. A seeker! HyperDrive could do nothing but drool and stare at those hips that swayed side to side as she walked around, looking through the instruments. Why would a beauty like her be in a place like this? Shouldn't she be in one of those brothels down the street like the other femmes? HyperDrive grinned wolfishly at the thought of buying a night with her. She was larger than him, yes, but that just made it all the more interesting. HyperDrive's thoughts took a temporary stall as the femme turned, showing him her sexy aft...

  And the massive blade hooked on her back.

This femme was dangerous; carrying a blade like that was bound to get some challengers. Mechs wanting to rip that blade off her back and take her into submission.She circled around the violins, giving him a show of her from every angle. He didn't even care if she broke something, it was payment enough to see something so lust-worthy walking around his shop for once. He heard her pluck a few strings on one of the EM-Guitars. With a twitch of his audios, the shop owner noted that she played the first five notes of a C concert scale.

The bell rang again.

And there stood someone he knew very well. Not personally, but his fame was loud and it was hard not to know the Mighty Megatronus. He was built like a mountain of armor, thick plates with numerous dark scars, and as tall as a gestalt. He was just as intimidating here as he was in the arena when he tore down mechs with one strike of his massive sword. HyperDrive was hard pressed not to go up to him and ask for an autograph or a picture or something.
