[Hey there, Cybertron, one of the police force's most antisocial members has just shown up on the screen. Only difference is that there's give or take a few years...ok he's nine. But that's not that young, is it?

He doesn't think so. The young cyborg looks pretty bleary-eyed, like's seen something he shouldn't have.

Oh well, he still had business to do.]

The pillar's gone. The guy who made that is bad news.

[He looks down at himself.]

...before you say anything, I know. I look different.

But I'm not gonna let that stop me from doing my job.

[He's a VERY serious nine-year old.]

Ey, I don't really know much about how human sparkling's bodies work.

You don't seem to be able to reach a desk, I don't recommend going to your workplace. Maybe people will step on you by accident. Is your whole body human now?

[tearsofsteel]

[No surprise there.]

No...it's still part robot.

I think I can look out for myself.

[deadlydoctor]

[When is Albert ever surprised?]

How odd.

I have experience with children, really. It wouldn't be a bother. Do you mind if I run some test too?

[tearsofsteel]

What kind of test?

[Cynical as always.]

[deadlydoctor]

Nothing too invasive, merely a basic scanner. [At first, at least.] I'm curious about how the change affected your body and you will know immediately if something's wrong with you.

[tearsofsteel]

Well...I wouldn't say no.

[deadlydoctor]

I'll be waiting for you. [Albert is also save form Knock Out's new food diet, being mostly organic all.]

[tearsofsteel]

Might wait longer if you don't tell me where you are.

[deadlydoctor]

At the clinic, of course. Here's were I have all the equipment.

And if you are a good boy I'll go to the pantry and get you candy. Kids like that, right?

[tearsofsteel]

...I'll go anyway.

[Don't you mock him, Knockout. He's already heading there, don't wait up.]

[deadlydoctor]

[It's not mocking! he was being nice, honestly...okay, okay, maybe he was mocking him. A little bit.

When Albert finally arrives, thought...] Dear Primus you are really tiny.

[He leans over, hand stretched for Albert to climb on top of it.]

[tearsofsteel]

Didn't notice.

[Sarcasm sarcasm.

Reluctantly, Albert climbs up Herr Doktor's hand.]

[deadlydoctor]

[Knock Out lives from sarcasm, he's unaffected. He's actually pretty careful while raising his hand to give Albert a better looks. He still looks like a giant robot, which probably doesn't help matters.]

And how did the change happen? You started to shrink?

[tearsofsteel]

More like the pillar just did something with its energy and it happened.

[Course he felt like being honest was the best policy now, given both of their relative sizes.]

[deadlydoctor]

Same with me but I had to deal with a processor ache.

[A wise decision. Knock Out walks near one of the huge machines in the clinic and puts Albert down in the center.] Now don't move, I worked on this scanner so it could analyze organic flesh as well. I needed to test it. How convenient that this happened, hm?

[tearsofsteel]

Yeah, convenient.

[Being a kid was sure convenient.]

Better not fry me.

[deadlydoctor]

Very. For me at least.

[He doesn't have a lot of organics patients.]

Uh huhmmm....[Did that sound reassuring, Albert' I'm sure it did not. Knock Out push a few buttons and then studies the screen.] Temperature normal, Pulse rate stable, respiration rate...[He moves forward and poke Albert's belly with a finger.]

[tearsofsteel]

[That sounded a bit ominous. Albert gasped once Knockout poked the cyborg with his digit. Geeze, Knockout give a guy a little warning.]

[deadlydoctor]

...normal reflexes and sensibility. [Sorry, the warning kind of ruins what he's trying to do.] It doesn't look like your are going to explode or anything of the sort anytime soon Albert.

[tearsofsteel]

I don't doubt that.

So what's this all for?

[deadlydoctor]

I'm checking if your body is completely functional in this new form. Do you think I poke people for the fun of it? [Ye,s yes he does. not while he's working, though.]
