The last time she ever went to the end of the ship was three cycles ago. Raiza's expectations of survival were not always at the end of her goal-list, but it was looking out for number one that was at the top. She needed to get herself checked out, after that last encounter with a mech she tried to convince into protecting her, but there wasn't any bending will left in the guy: called her "a glitch", left a mark on her leg, and moved on.

Groaning, while limping her way down to the end of the hallway, Raiza had to put her right servo on the right leg, where the gash was to pick up the pace. She was already leaking a trail in the hallway, and the longer she stayed, the better chance of getting caught by someone far interested in seeing her. Unable to hold her weight, the red and black femme had to lean herself against the wall. Almost there...

After a while of struggling, Raiza finally found herself into the place where she needed to be: the med-bay. It wasn't her fault that she got herself into a beatdown with another cybertronian. She just desperately needed allies. Moving herself down to a berth, Raiza could not hold in the yelp that she's been holding in from the moment she tried to go down the hallway, as she leaned herself against the berth with her servos.

"Excuse me? I am in need of delicacy for an injury", she spoke up for the first time since the injury was inflicted upon her. She didn't pay attention to the details of the mech standing in the distance before her, but she did take note of his red paint. Same color, it would seem, she thought enviously, but immediately brushed it aside when another wave of pain hit her within her pain receptors. Somebody turn them off for one cycle, please...

Knock Out as this kind of person who love only himself. Yes, Breakdown was his best friend, and amica endurae, but he was an exception. Speaking of BD, he wasn't here today, out again without him. The time when they was always together in mission outside is no more. Megatron was suddenly very… strange about them. It sound like he wanted to separate them. Yes, it's not really allowed to have friends when you're a Decepticon, but most of them just don't care, or don't see that they are.

Today, the doctor was in the medibay. Nothing important to do, but there was something that KO seemed to see. Lord Megatron contaminated is body with the dark energon and the red bot needs to take a look again to this strange “blood of unicron”. Why? Because the medicine that he had given to him didn't work. The problem is that this energy doesn't immunize the leader against blows. This makes him stronger just, not more resistant. He needed to work on a solution before something serious happens.

Unfortunately, while working, someone came. He didn't even look, continuing to work. Vehicons can wait! But… This voice was unknown. He had already repaired everyone on this ship, and so he knew everyone's voice... Or rather... screams. He therefore rose from his chair and approaching the unknown girl. A new head. Interesting, and red like him.

- First, always say “hello” when you come here. Second, ask before to sit on a table. I haven't always time to clean them.

Arriving front of her, he grabbed a pen and a datapad. This person was new here, so she needs to know the rules about the 'bay. He didn't know how she was injured, but he wanted to know. He nevertheless added the third rule.

- And third, if you fight with the other aboard, the rule is that you have to wait 24 hours before being fixed… Unless severe injury. Yes, it's a punishement even if it's not your fault. Megatron asked for.

He cocked his head, looking, hoping that he was perfectly clear, then looked at the wound. It was ugly. Very ugly. But not serious. He ran his fingers over it. This will only take 10 minutes of work. He would hurry to return to study the dark energon.

- A serial number? A designation?

He finally asked to complete his datapad, taking it again. He already noted some things.

Being one of Cybertron's most crafty criminals, the consequences of her deviousness sure had a very big chance of getting Raiza quickly blamed on, only to be called "a psychotic glitch" for a reason. Worse, the chances for survival were down to an uneven level, since she did get herself into a sticky predicament, just a few clicks ago. Just another...bad enough situation, almost costing her a spark.

For her past to haunt her so much, the red femme didn't like the element of tragic circumstance. It was a private thought, for which she did not like to share so much. Her pragmatic reasons were her own. All she knew was that she was abandoned by her creators, and was left in the care of their friend, whom she thought was her true family, but was nowhere in between.

For her to lean upon the berth, Raiza did notice with her red optics that the mech before her was approaching, and the only thought she had on her mind was how much he looked similar to herself...in paintjob-wise, that is. However, she didn't question about it to him, although did keep it well-noted. With these new requests coming from the physically-similar, red mech, Raiza didn't hesitate on looking at him with a skeptical glance.

Perhaps if she cooperated with him, she would at least stay on his good side, and not have another tumble. Truth is, Raiza wasn't one to harmfully approach at the warmest of times, but she knew, for a fact, that it was rare to do for such a violent femme. All she did was nod, and speak in a respectable voice tone.

"I will start again, but only for you", Raiza replied in a kind manner with a small smile. Clearing her throat passage, she straightened her body properly. "Hello, Doctor. I am in need of delicacy for an injury. May I sit down?", it was respectful in nature, like she is almost always, but not forceful. Raiza was tapping on the berth's surface with one of her digits, and gave the mech a tilt of her helm, as if expecting an answer.

She was patient too, as every person on the ship should be, if visiting the Medbay. The same rule applied back on Cybertron too. Just by hearing the third rule he set out, the red femme didn't hesitate on replying to the subject. "About that, that's actually why I'm here", she hated to admit it, but he sounded insistent for cause and effect. "So, our gracious lord had the right to lay down such a rule", Raiza added to his statement about Lord Megatron.

He was the reason she was laying low on the vessel. What else was there to say? "Not sure on serial number, but designation? Raiza", she didn't hesitate on her reply, but just looked at him in curiosity. "Speaking of designation, what would yours be called?", Raiza curiously asked him.
