"Amethyst...?"

Sideswipe skated into the brig. "What do you want, Sideswipe?" I muttered without looking up. "Are you sad?" he asked. "No..." I scowled. "You are." He picked me up carefully and sat against the wall. "Talk to me... please," he said. "There's nothing to talk about and why are waiting for me to talk about all the shit that's bothering me?" I scowled. "So there is something to talk about. Look, I am not trying to bully you whatsover by telling you what you shouldn't do. I just want you to heal properly and the only way to achieve that is with rest."

"I don't want to be ugly anymore... why can't I be like other girls? Why do people always judge me on how thin I am? It's not my fault I don't have much volume... I am nearly flat chested," I mocked. "That's also a lie. You're beautiful and your appearance makes you unique. I get that it's annoying to constantly hear people skinny shame you, but don't listen to them. When you're healed and gain weight you will see that you get more volume. I promise, don't worry so much about how you look... give it time," he said. I gave a small nod.

"You know... if you really want to train so badly, I am sure we can manage something. I don't want you to train in a group. I want you to only train with us so we can help you improve. Soldiers are rough and they won't be nice... but you need to promise that you won't sneak out at nights, that you listen to our advice, clear?" he asked. I smiled and nodded rapidly. "I promise."
"We are not going to train for hours... one hour is the maximun, clear?" he asked. I nodded again, "I promise."

"Alright, than stop crying now... and go to my brother, he's waiting for you in our room," he said and kissed me before placing me back on the ground. "Thank you, Sideswipe." He hummed and hoisted himself up. "Go to my brother," he said again. I hobbled through the brig and halls back towards Sunstreaker's room. "There you are." Sunstreaker grabbed me and pulled me on his lap. "My brother spoke to you?" he asked. I nodded, "good, keep in mind that if the training is to intense, we stop it," he warned. I nodded and let him wrap his arms around me and hug me.

"You are a good sweet girl... don't doubt yourself and don't hate yourself," he whispered. I hummed and fell asleep in his arms. The next morning, I woke up between the twins. Sideswipe was softly snoring beside me and Sunstreaker was half snoozing. I lifted my head to look at the clock. Seven O'clock. "Sunny... are we getting up?" I poked his belly. "No, go to sleep," he grumbled and turned on his stomach, hugging his pillow and fell asleep. I sighed and stared at the ceiling, listening to their breathing. After half an hour, I crawled out of bed and dressed up without trying to wake up the twins. The uniform was way too big for me and it already was extra small.

Sunstreaker opened an eye as I was trying to make it more fitting. "What are you doing?" he asked. I turned around. Sideswipe sleepily lifted his head. "You have more..." he gestured at his chest to show what he meant. "Breasts..." Sunstreaker said. "Yeah... uhm, the bra is too big but I filled it up with... wash clothing, so it looks bigger," I said. "Right..." Sunstreaker said and sat up. "You're trying to create more volume but... it looks weird now. It doesn't... fit with the rest of your body because the rest is just... kinda... flat," he said carefully. "And the uniform is too big. Which size is this?" Sideswipe asked as he laid back down. "The smallest size there is."

Sunstreaker hopped out of bed. "You should change your clothing and try again when you gained some weight," he said. "But I want to wear it," I said. "Whatever, it's too early to argue," he scowled and disapeared in the bathroom. I walked up to Sideswipe and straddled him. "What do you think of the make-up?" I asked. "Beautiful," he responded. "Are you sure? You're not saying it because you feel pity?" I asked. He shook his head, "nope."

I laid down on his chest for a few seconds. "Are you getting up now?" I asked. He sighed and hoisted himself up as I got off of him. "When are we going to the training room? Now?" I asked. "If we are done dressing up and you had your food," he said before joined his brother in the bathroom. For my feeling, it took them forever to finally be done. I sighed and paced around. "Finally! Why took it so long," I complained. "Relax, Thyst. Let get some food," Sunstreaker sighed. I groaned and waited impatiently for them.

We finally had breakfast. It took them forever. "Amethyst, slow down eating or you will upset your stomach," Sunstreaker muttered as he swallowed his food. I rolled my eyes, "you're just too slow," I complained grumpily. "Well, unlike you... I actually want to enjoy my meal," he scowled. I rolled my eyes. When we had all finished, I nearly dragged the twins towards the training. "Thyst, this is not something we are going to do daily. Getting up in a haze so you can train," Sideswipe said grumpily. I snorted and stood in front of them. "I wanna show you what I can."

"Yeah because last time went perfectly fine," Sunstreaker mocked. "No, that was your fault. Please let me show you what I can." Sideswipe waved his hand. "Come on, Sunny... let her show us." The mech sighed and crossed his arms. "Fine..." he sighed. I grabbed the wooden stick. "Where did you get that?" Sideswipe asked. "I found it."
"Yeah where? Because we don't use that anymore," Sunstreaker said. "Yeah I know, that's why I use it."

"Of course," he scowled. I was kinda proud of myself and all the things I could do but they didn't seem impressed. Although it took me a lot of effort, they just nodded. "Is it not good enough?" I asked. "No, no... it's good," Sideswipe said. I sensed they weren't happy or at least, something was bothering them. "What's wrong? I can sense something is off."

Sunstreaker grabbed the second wooden sword and pointer it at me. "Remember what you taught yourself," he said. Before I could ask what the plan was, he hit my leg and flank, knocking all the air out of me. I collapsed on the ground. "There's your answer on... was it good or not," he said. I jumped back on my feet, "you surprised me. That's all." I tried to hit him but he blocked my attack and hit mr again. "You would be dead by now." I sighed and stepped back. Sunstreaker was rough and more beating me up than actually telling me how to do it.

"Giving up already?"
"No, no... I am just..." he trailed off. "Tired?" Sideswipe asked. I snorted, "I just want to understand what I am doing wrong so I can improve," I said. "You're doing every possibly thing wrong," he snapped. "Let's stop for today."
I sighed, "I am not tired." Sunstreaker glanced at me. "I am not... we can continue for half an hour or so." Sunstreaker looked at his brother. "Fifteen minutes?" I asked. "It's enough for today."

We had only been training for 45 minutes and I felt like they were doing this to please me and shut me up not because they actually wanted it. "I—" I sighed and looked down at the ground. "Fine..." I mumbled and handed him the wooden sword. "But can you at least tell me what I need to do to improve?" I asked. "Move it, Thyst." Sunny pushed me towards the door. I sighed softly. It's a must for them, they don't want to do this. Just for a moment, I thought they were serious about it.

I was kinda bruised and felt miserable. I thought they would at least give me a compliment for the try but no. I laid down on the bed and stared at the ceiling, while I was all alone once again.
