here's the next chapter. hope you like.

"Hey, June, I have a strange sensation in my abdominal," Arcee said. "It's emitting a very strange sound."

Miko then took control and said, "Arcee, that's my stomach. Or our stomach. Anyway, that sound means I'm, or we're, hungry."

"Oh."

"I'll fix us some supper. How about spaghetti?"

"Sounds good, mom," Jack said.

So as June got to cooking, Mik-C dropped the hologram, and soon the food was ready. However, as they were eating, Mik-C's mind suddenly went blank. Jack and June noticed her expression, and got worried.

"Miko? Arcee?" Jack asked.

"Are you okay?" June asked.

She turned her head to Jack, and heard a voice speak to her.

"Destroy them."

Without warning, Mik-C took hold of June's throat, trying to choke her. Jack quickly got his phone, dialing the base.

"Ratchet, something's wrong with Mik-C! She's trying to choke my mom! We need a ground bridge now!"

At that moment, a ground bridge portal opened and Jack pushed Miko through the portal. Once the portal closed behind them, Mik-C's expression turned to a confused one.

"How'd we get back here?" Miko asked. Then she noticed where her hands were. "And why are my hands on June's throat?" Her mind snapped to realization. "Wait, did I just try to choke you?! Why'd I do that?!"

"It would appear you were controlled, and the base's mineral structure blocked the signal. Let me find out who was controlling you."

"It's gotta be MECH!" Jack said.

"Well, we should check to see if we missed any abnormalities."

So Ratchet scanned Mik-C to find out what happened, and found out what was wrong.

okay. two possibilities of control. one, MECH put a control chip in her neck. two, Arcee was near death with traces of Dark Energon in her system(likely from Megatron's arm blade) when MECH found her and fused her with Miko, and Megatron has control of them both outside the base. which do you like better? I personally like the Dark En, but let's hear your opinions
