Autobots, this is Chief Medical Officer Ratchet responding to a request for medical assistance. I'm currently in orbit and am open to suggestions for places to land discreetly to keep your cover intact. Please respond with a location, or a briefing, or both, as soon as possible.

I'd have to have any idea at all what her injuries were to be able to tell you that, Drift. If you've got a welding tool and she trusts you to assist without slicing one of her limbs off, you should patch any active leaks as soon as possible to keep her from draining too low. Other than that, you should probably leave it to somebody with an actual medical degree.

Ratchet…Ratchet please. Do you have to make this harder than it needs to be? Arcee’s my friend. I’m afraid for her, she…she took a lot of blows. From Megatron.

[There are hints of both panic and anger in his tone, but more than anything else, he just sounds tired. There’s a soft hush of a resigned sigh before he speaks again.]

I don't want to argue. I’ll tell you what I can, but she’s been hit everywhere. Her midsection is the worst…and she’s lost a lot of energeon. I think that…I think Orion already tried welding.

[There's a long pause on the other end and the soft rushing sound of Ratchet cycling his vents.]

If she's not leaking or sparking anywhere that you can see, she's as stable as she's going to get until I can get down and pop her plating to check for internal injuries, which isn't something anyone else should be doing. Make sure she's getting as much energon as she can hold if she's awake but don't worry about it if she's not, and monitor her systems temperature if you need something to do, to make sure she's not overheating.

[Ratchet's directions give him a small flash of relief. The aftermath of the fight had left him feeling helpless - their injuries were stacking up and they'd already gone more than a month without a medic. At least now, he could do something...at least now, he knew someone was coming for them.]

Alright. Okay, I'll get to that right away. Thank you, Ratchet. Just tell me if you need anything on our end.
