I guess so.
Burnout goes back to doing transform-ups, wondering what the next challenger would do.

*System growls at Burnout as he does the transform-ups, clearly annoyed at being told to do this. He raises an optic ridge at Paradox and nods his head.*
"Very impressive."

Burnout continues his transformations.
So, what are you going to do about this course system.. full on speed, agressive attack or tactical decisions?

"A mix of speed and tactics are called for. And you, I guess, will go in like a bull in a china shop?"
*He teases, continuing his transform-ups.*

Not too reckless though, those vehicons are pretty fast. If only i had two of those pellet guns that'd make it easier to take them out. I could use one of those fliers as a platform and gain a shortcut across.

"There is always that. You wanna bet on that working?"
*He grins at the idea.*

It could do, after all we've plugged so many hours into those simulations in the VR suites System. This will be a piece of cake.

"100 energon chips says otherwise."
*System stops his push ups for a second.*

You wanna bet? Sure i'll take you up on that challenge System.
Burnout gave him a grin as he transformed back up into robot form.

"Good luck brother."
*He shakes Burnout's hands and watches the others.*

Paradox finally retrieved the red orb, and the numbness in her arm disappeared. She jumped down and walked out of the hardlight projection room.

Burnout straightens up and looks to the other students.
So who's going next?

Not you two, and get in gear, I've saw better transform-ups out of a human! And they can't even transform.
Armatum said to Burnout. He then looked away from the tardy mech and to Paradox. Arma hadn't expected her to cheat the system. Nevertheless, she was certainly smart and perceptive. Not that Armatum was going to full on praise her. He approached Paradox once she landed and took the weapons back.
That was smart cadet, but vehicons aren't holograms you can just wish away with your powers. That's why you need this combat training. And from the glimpse I saw at your actual combat skills, you are sloppy. You have potential, but your aim is off and judging by how early you got hit, you don't know how to properly dodge. From now on when we are training against the hardlights, you can not use your powers. That defeats the purpose. That goes for everyone who has any sort of powers that could short out the system!
He called out to the rest of the class. He then squatted a little so he could be optic level to the feeme. His own optics could barely be seen through his visor.
Here, let me show you something that will help with your aim. Don't flinch before you shoot, that'll throw off the trajectory of the bullet. And fire in short bursts of three. Watch.
By now the system had rebooted and the holograms were once again in position. Armatum raised the assault rifle and aimed at one on the middle platform. He vented inwards, the fired a burst of pellets. The three pellets flew through the air and connected with the hardlight's head and neck, instantly zapping it out of existence. Arma pointed at a table holding another pellet loaded assault rifle and motioned for Paradox to go and pick it up.
Go and practice on the firing range while we finish up here. Vamprycon! You're up next cadet!
He tossed the young mech the gun and waited for him to step up to the first platform.

"Yes, sir," he said reluctantly. As he walked past Paradox, he gave her a smile. She never followed the rules.
Paradox picked up the rifle. She walked over to the firing range and started practicing.
He started to think. "Pellets - matter, easily deflected by gravity without distorting light. Speed and mass of pellets needed. In need of a suitable sacrifice."
A panel on his left wrist opened up and he whispered something into it. He slung the rifle Armatum gave him over his shoulder as the end of a rifle folded up from his back. He grabbed it and pushed the button on top with his thumb. Two bow limbs snapped out, a length of string stretched between them. Two hooks pulled the string back from both sides of the stock, as a bolt materialized on it. He checked the tip of it and stepped in.
Just like before, Vehicon projections started firing at him. He moved smoothly to the side as a tentacle snaked out into the path of an EMP pellet. It was numbed immediately and fell down by his side.
His head jerked downwards and his battlemask slid down. On its display was two large circles with dips and pits around the circles inside them. As a second wave of bullets was fired, a GroundBridge-like sound was heard and a black sphere appeared in front of his chest. The pellets' trajectories diverted, pulled onto the surface of the sphere.
He aimed his crossbow and fired. It embedded itself in a hardlight projection and let loose an EMP burst that deactivated it. He stood near the entrance, shooting out all the hardlights and then walked around and picked up his bolts. He walked up to the highest platform and picked up the orb, then retracted his outstretched tentacle. He deactivated the gravity ball and the pellets fell to the ground. He walked out of the arena while sliding his faceplate up with his finger.
"It's not cheating the system," Vampyricon said before Armatum could say anything. "I can use gravity to absorb energy blasts too. Trust me, I've done it before."
He pulled the rifle out as he stored the crossbow and put it on the table. ------- Meanwhile, Paradox was letting loose clip after clip of ammo, using her electromagnetic powers to ensure they hit the bullseye.

Yes sir!
Burnout continued to transform, giving it more effort his body burning as he continued his routine.
Boy i sure hope I don't burn out my T-cog, those stories about Tarn burning out his...

*System does the same as Burnout.*
"Oh boo hoo. You still believe those stories the elders told us to scare us?"

Upon hearing that, Artron and Chronon gave each other a look.
"They have no idea," Artron told Chronon telepathically.
"I don't need reminding," Chronon told her verbally.
