The femme's getting cocky. A small smile crosses Thundercracker's lips as she saunters closer. He could work this to his advantage. He lies still, trying to behave as if she's truly knocked the fight out of him. Let's see if she can resist the urge to kick a mech while he's down...
Apparently she can't. The kick obviously isn't intended to do major damage, just to drive home the point that she's the victor. Or that she THINKS she's the victor...
Striking like lightning, he grabs her leg and flings her to the ground with a twist. He quickly regains his feet and stands over her, a triumphant smirk on his face.
"Where's your 'power of the awesome' now, little punk-bot?" he demands, and he draws his arm back for another blow.

The swears that erupt from Firebolt's vocalizer are enough to put the spawn of a biker, gangster, and sailor to shame. Her alarm sets off as she's thrown to the ground, one of her satellite dishes half fanning out, the shock of the fall breaking its bond. Then comes the bloodrage. Well, although Transformers don't have blood, it's the right way to phrase the anger that surges through her body as she slams her hands on the ground. She pulls herself away, scrabbling backwards, and almost looking like she's recoiling in horror as Thundercracker draws his fist back. But like the seeker, she can act too. Firebolt arches her back uses her legs to push off the ground,and sends her legs flying up, but with no intent to kick him, drawing her legs in close. She pulls herself into a handstand for a moment before dropping down and then throws her legs out to full length and pulls a spin move 1.. 1. Examples seen in here, though... She's not as awesome as they are as she's only average rated at breakdancin. www.youtube.com/watch?v=okH_lZGPHXE

Thundercracker feels a pulse of satisfaction as the femme scrambles backward to escape him, terror glowing in her optics. Seems she's not quite as confident when the tables are turned...
That's when she pushes herself onto her hands, balancing her entire body on her arms. He has only an instant to question what the slag she's doing before she performs her spin maneuver, one foot catching him in his already-mangled cockpit and knocking him backward. He's still on his feet, just off-balance at the moment...

The crazed dance-fighter is oddly silent as she flips up and then bounces back, leaning on her wheels as she balances carefully, fists up as she watches Thundercracker teeter after being hit. So much for being cocky, huh?
Without a second hesitation she runs up again, vaulting into a hand stand and then kicking her legs back out at Thundercracker in order to knock him down and keep him down. Maybe she'll go and punch or kick him in the face a few times if it works...

WHONK!
The next thing Thundercracker knows, he's flat on his back, wondering how exactly he made it to the ground. Were he an organic creature, that last kick to his abdominal plate would have knocked the wind out of him. As it is, his diagnostic systems and pain receptors are shrieking at him, announcing a cracked "rib" strut and shards of his cockpit jammed into a few sensitive circuits. That fighting style... it's nothing he's ever seen a Transformer use before. Where the slag did she pick it up?
"This. Is. NOT. Happening," he groans.

Wait... Whoa. Firebolt gapes at herself, landing quite literally next to Thundercracker as she catches her balance. He's... He's beat up and it's her doing. WOOO!
"I'm gonna sit on you now1.," She said as she plops down on his midsection, crossing her arms. She glances up at Thundercracker's face and then points. "You ain't thinkin I so weak and nonthreatenin NOW huh?"
"What do I do now? Oh yeah, this," She draws her fist back and goes to whack him in the face just because he was being a jerk. And A Decepticon, but that's beyond the point.
1. Yes. This was approved. How awesome.

"Oof." The damaged strut complains anew as the femme sits on him. Is it not humiliating enough that a flightless pup of an Auto-femme just beat the ever-loving scrap out of him? Does she now have to further demean him by using him as a chair?
Then the fist connects with his jaw. "Ow! All right already, you win! Get offa me!" He wants to add "because you're slagging heavy" but knows that'll just earn him another (probably deserved) smack. Femmes...

"I win!" She declares as she plays semi-familiar victory music (Final Fantasy) and then crosses her arms, bouncing once on top of him. "What do I win?"
"Oh hey, and why do you suck so much? I thought you were scary, but you're really just kinda... Nonthreatening," She said as she glances over and then going to light pat him on the side of the head in a demeaning sort of way. She shrugs and then leans a bit back, leaning her hands on the other side of Thundercracker's chest.
"See, this is the part in the movies where the good guy talks with the bad guy and then the good guy lets the bad guy go." She says, as she waves her hand about but keeps it held threateningly as if she's gonna punch Thundercracker again. "So we're gonna act like this is a really cheesy action movie and we'll talk. So hey, what's your name?"

Thundercracker yelps again as she bounces on him, aggravating the pain in his cracked strut. If he felt up to answering her question, he'd say she's won a healthy kick in the aft, but he decides it prudent to not vocalize that. She IS in a position to do some damage, after all.
He flinches back from her pat, scowling up at her. Thundercracker, non-threatening? That's a low blow, especially to someone to whom fear is considered a weapon unto itself. Should've used my sonic booms on her, he decides.
"...the slag?" he demands of her next question. "You have got to be the absolute strangest Transformer I've ever met! In case you haven't noticed, this ISN'T a cheesy action movie! This is the stupidest fight I've ever gotten myself involved in!" He lets his head fall back with an angry sigh, wondering why the slag he ever chose to fire on this femme.
Almost as an afterthought, he adds "And if you must know my name, it's Thundercracker."

"Oh, we're always being watched, that's why it's a cheesy movie," She says as she looks over at him and then smiles. "And excuse me, I LOVE being messed up. I mean, why be ordinary when you can live life extraordinarily?" She says thoughtfully as she tilts her head to the side.
"Oh, and yo Thundercracker... ... TC. I'm Firebolt," She lightly bonks him on the head. "You don't have to be so mean." She stands up and then brushes herself off. She shrugs, saying, "But if you don't want to act or anything, TC, I won't make ya. Too bad, it's fun being in a movie!"
With that, she calls out her transformation and slams onto the ground and peels off, heading further into the forest.

Thundercracker contents himself with just laying there a few moments, letting self-repair begin its work and replaying the events of the fight in his CPU. All the while he alternates between humiliated rage that he was bested so easily and a strange sense of curiousity. Not even the most lunatic of the Autobots back home had been THIS "messed up," as Firebolt had put it.
Yet it's not the kind of sadistic lunacy he's come to expect from certain mechs back home -- Stunticons anyone? For all her trash-talking and streetfighting moves (he assumes they're streetfighting moves, at any rate), she seems far too innocent. A trait that's bound to get her killed... but that somehow sparks his interest...
He finally sits up, feeling shards of glass fall from his ruined cockpit and his cracked strut stab in protest. Between his busted cockpit, blackened paint job, and bullet-hole-riddled wings, he's certain he looks a sorry sight. When Starscream sees him like this, he's either going to blow his stack or laugh himself sick. Slagger.
Pushing himself to his feet, he rises into the air via antigrav and transforms, turning in the general direction of the base. Firebolt will bear watching from here on out. He can't help but feel there's something strange, yet intriguing, about her...
OOC: End of thread, unless Firebolt says otherwise...

OOC: Yesh, Firebolt's attention span ran out when he didn't like the movies. Feel free to close up this thread.
