"Wheeljack what are you doing," Ratchet asked as he walked into the inventor's lab.
"It's a device that will make synthetic energon," Wheeljack held up the object in his hand to show the medic.
"Great hopefully it works. We could use something like that."
"Ya," Wheeljack placed the device down on the work bench. "Hay when is Ally coming," Wheeljack loved that kid she was his working buddy. She was smart and kind. Ally always made things fun even know she was Jazz's charge and not his.
"She's here but she is messing with Prowl," Ratchet replied.
"Cool I can show her my new invention," and with that Wheeljack was out of the room with the device in hand.
[Rec. room]
"And that's why you can't just hit the twins no matter the meaning," Prowl stated in a matter of fact tone.
"But they blew up my room with a paint bomb," Ally replied as she sat on Jazz's shoulder.
"Yes I know," Prowl replied as he remembered the whole chaos from it.
"Hay Ally look at what I've been working on," Wheeljack said as he came into the room holding up the rectangle device.
"What is that," Prowl ask as he looked at the inventor with suspicion.
"It's safe," Wheeljack said as he saw some of the bots in the rec room move away. "Any way it's a synthetic energon creator."
"Really let me see," the teenage said as she jumped onto Wheeljack's offered hand. "Hmm looks like it might work but I'll have to see the blue prints before we test it out."
"Ok there in my lab just give me...,"Wheeljack shuffled his arms so he could hold the girl better with that he dropped the device causing it to explode.
"Is everyone ok," Prowl asked as the smoke cleared. There was some yes and no's throughout the room.
"Ally where are you baby girl," Jazz asked as he looked and scanned around for her. There was no reply from her and all of the bot got scared. When the smoke cleared she was nowhere to be seen. "WHEELJACK WHAT DID YOU DO," Jazz shouted as he grabbed and shook the mech.
"I don't know," was the reply as Prowl and the others pride Wheeljack from Jazz's death grip.
"You better find her or your dead," Jazz snapped as Ironhide held the saboteur back.
A year later
Jack stood at the counter of the KO burgers fast food. He was called in for an extra shift when someone else called off sick. It was pretty boring just standing there. It was a slow night and there were at most four people in the eating area. Arcee was waiting outside for him when his shift was over. He sighed to himself. A few minutes later he heard a motorcycle pull up and shut off. Then a girl walked in warring dark blue gens, a dark red hoody, glasses, and a fedora. She walked up to the counter to only stop short to look at the menu.
"KO burgers how my I help you," Jack asked the girl.
"Ah ya I would like a number four and a water," she said. "And where are your bathrooms."
"To the left and down the hall, anything else," Jack asked as he typed on the cash register.
"No thank you," she walked down to the restrooms.
She seemed to be nicer than he expected. Jack noticed that her eyes were a very dark brown almost black. There was something wrong with her but Jack couldn't tell what it was.
Ally splashed some cold water onto her face to wipe away some of the dirt that had accumulated there as she thought of the bike outside. She knew it was a transformer but didn't know who it was. She could smell the energon that came off if it. She blamed Wheeljack for this and if she saw him again she would kick his aft to the point he was almost dead. Ally hated that she was alone and that she was running low on supplies. If she couldn't get her daily energon mixed with vitamins she would ether die or kill millions. She hated being an energy consumer. It made her a monster and there was nothing that could be done about it.
"Why," Ally asked herself.
Why was she here? Why did Wheeljack drop that stupid device? "Why," was the only thing going through her head. She put her glasses back on and went out to get and pay for the food. She ate and left. The motorcycle she was riding she had handmade and was in subspace when the explosion happened. It had been a Primus for shaken year since she seen Jazz or anyone and it started to take its toll on her. Hell at this point she would like to see Grimlock if it meant she would be safe.
Ally was too lost in her thoughts to see the red sports car tailing her until it was too late. The car hit the back of the bike causing Ally and the bike to be thrown off the road. Ally was thrown to the ground and the bike skidded a good ten feet away from her. The impacted with the hard ground had broken Ally's helmet's glass. She laid there not moving in hoping that the car would leave but then it transformed.
"Shit," Ally wisped as the con got closer to her.
When the con tried to pick her up Ally got up and ran a few feet. The con seemed to smirk at her and then out of nowhere a blue motorcycle from earlier hit him in the head. The impact made the con to back away from Ally. The bike then transformed into a slim femme and the two fought. Ally saw the opportunity to get her bike and ride away. She stumbled over to the bike holding her head with one hand. Ally got to the bike when more cons showed up to help the red one. She collapsed next to the bike from the pain she felt and then she felt someone pick her up. She looked to her right to see the boy from the fast food joint haling her up. He looked worried.
"Can you hold on to me if I drive your bike," he asked and Ally only nodded. "Good now come on," he pulled the bike up and helped Ally on the back and drove off.
Soon after the Autobot two wheeler was fallowing them. The cons were still fallowing the three of them. Ally wished she could get into her bag and get the bow she had. What good would a bow do her ageist a cybertronian? Well it is a bow made of a very strong crystal and the arrows can ether explode on contact or shock the person until they ether pull it out or get knocked out.
"Ratchet we need a space brig," the bike said into a com. link.
Ratchet? Ally knew the medic well but what is he doing here and not helping her. She needed her energon mix and Ratchet was one who knew how to make it but if this wasn't the Hatchet she knew than it might end badly. After a minuet there was a blue green portal in front of them. As soon as they were throw it closed behind them and they were in an old missile silo. There was two bots nerve a large computer. They both looked familiar to Ally. If she had to guess who they were she would propyl say that they were Optimus Prime and the Hatchet.
"Anther human," Ratchet asked as he looked at Jack and Ally.
"Blame Knockout," the femme said after she transformed into her robot mode.
"Why would a con want a human," the medic asked.
"I don't know but she looks like she needs medical attention," Optimus said. "Ratchet call miss Darby."
"Yes Optimus," Ratchet said as he did so.
"Ahh," Ally moaned as she fell backwards off the bike.
"Are you ok," Jack asked as he put the kick stand down and tried to help her back up but she waved him off.
Ally sat up holding her head. Ally felt sick. She pulled off her backpack and looked throw it until see found a syringe with the chemical mix. She injected the substance into her right arm and took a deep breath as she did so. All of the bots were caught off guard when she did that.
"What is that," Ratchet asked as he walked up to the young teen. Jack took the empty needle and handed it to the medic. Ally just set there trying to stay calm.
After a few minutes June showed up in her car. She had her medical gear and Ally wined when she saw it. June went up to Ally to get an over look at her. Ally backed up and looked for an escape from nurse. In a move of panic Ally did a jump twist over June and ran over to hide behind Optimus' leg.
"What the," Jack said as he looked at Ally.
Optimus bent down and picked Ally up to get a better look at her. She flinched at first but then jumped onto his hand like she had done so many times before. Ally always liked being close to a bot but this time she just didn't want to be nearer Miss Darby. Ally looked up into Optimus' light blue optics and instantly knowing that he seemed to be like her Prime, kind and caring.
"What is your name young one," Optimus asked.
"Alicia Strone," Ally said. "But I like being called Ally more than Alicia."
"Ally do you know why the Decepticons were after you," Optimus asked as he knew she propyl would have no idea cons were.
"No," Ally replied but then thought for a minute and realized something. She grabbed the back of her neck to undo the necklets that was hidden under her shirt. She took it off and held it up to show Optimus the Autobot symbol on a metal chain. All of the bots optics widen in surprise. "It has a tracking device in it so my garden can find me," Ally replied as Ratchet scanned it.
"I really don't think that would get them after you," Ratchet said as Jack and June came up on the platform.
"True you would have to know the frequency to find it," Ally replied as she put her fedora back on.
"Then why would they be after you," Optimus asked.
Ally stood there thinking for a minute and thought of something. "Are you guys running out of energon?"
"Yes but why would that be a factor," Optimus asked a little confused a how much the young girl knew.
"Well," Ally said as she dug through her bag once more. "Ahh there it is," Ally pulled out a subspace device and opened it. "This might be why," she held out a small glowing purple cube. "It's synthetic but it works just as well as the real stuff," Ally handed the cube to Ratchet who looked at it with curiosity.
"It's incredible but how did you get it," the medic asked as he looked at the girl.
"I made it," Ally replied with a straight face.
"No really," Ratchet asked as Ally just rolled her eyes.
"I made it and I can show you how I did it," Ally said a little irritated and matter of fact tone.
"All right then show me," Ratchet wanted to call her bluff.
Ally pulled out a data pad from subspace and turned it on. She then plugged it into the main computer and went to a page with a comical equation on it.
"I don't have all of the ingredients to make it but that might not be a problem for you," Ally said with a smirk at the bots confusion.
"Impressive," Optimus said.
"Ya it took a long time to get it right but everyone was happy about it until the twins decided to make high grade with it," Ally said with a smile. "Man that was a bad day for everyone."
"Why what happened," Jack asked.
"Well let's just say everyone was lucky that they were in the lab instead of the rec room," Ally replied as she looked at Jack and his mom. They gave Ally a weird look before she replied "The lab has blast proof walls and doors. Do to it goes throw a lot of 'work' from the inventor that blows stuff up by accident." They gave Ally an "Oh" look.
"Hey do you have anywhere to spend the night," June asked trying to change the subject.
"Ahh," Ally looked as if June was speaking a different langue and shrugged.
"Ok then you are staying with us tonight," June said as she walked over to Ally.
June put a hand on Ally's shoulder and Ally flinched at the contact. Ally never liked being touched by anyone for any reasons except the people that were close to her and that was still iffy. June quickly removed her hand after seeing the reaction.
"Um no that's ok I don't want to be a bother," Ally said not meeting June's eyes.
"You won't be a bother we have a spare room that you can stay in. Plus it looks like you could use a good homemade meal," June gave Ally a small smile.
"Ok if you're sure then," Ally replied in a quiet voice.
"Great then," June said.
"Hag on did anyone forget that this kid a few moments ago got thrown off a motorcycle by Knockout at sixty miles an hours," Arcee remained them all.
Ally flinched at remembering what happened. "I'm fine," Ally tried to reassure them.
"I should still make sure you're ok," June said as she did a look over on Ally.
She could see blood coming from above Ally's right eye. Her jeans and hoody were tern up and her left arm looked limp form the elbow down.
"No," Ally said a little too bitterly than she meant to. "I just don't like a person touching me that's all," she said as she held herself.
"It's ok all I need is to make sure you have no broken bones or any internal injuries," June said as concern seeped into her voice.
"Fine," Ally replied in a sad tone.
[Later that night at the Darby's house]
Ally looked at the cast on her left arm with discuss. She was in some pajamas June had lent her for the night. She said that they would go and Get her new close in the morning after Jack went to school. Ally was sitting on the egad of the bed when she heard a soft knock on the door.
"Come in," Ally said and then the door opened to revel Jack standing there.
"You ok," he asked as he walked into the room and sat down next to me.
"More or less," Ally replied with a sigh.
"That's good I guess," Jack put his hand in-between his legs. "So who is your guardian," he posed. "You didn't seemed scared or in awe when you saw the bots."
"His name is Jazz," Ally replied as she held her necklace with her right hand.
"Where is he," Jack asked with interest.
"I don't know dead maybe," she replied knowing that the statement might be true.
"Oh," Jack replied.
"Yep, hay I need to get to sleep," Ally said as she looked up at him.
"Did you take your pain killers," he asked as he looked as the meds on the bed side table.
"I don't believe in taking pain killers but I took the antibiotics," she said as he got up and left.
"Night," was the last thing he said before leaving the room.
[The day morning]
Ally sat at the Autobots base looking over what Ratchet was doing. Earlier June had dropped her off here just before she had to go to work and Jack was still at school. It was pretty quiet around there. Ratchet had been working on the synthetic energon and was paying her little to no attention unless it would help him with the energon. Ally missed the Arc there would always be something to do. Then the roar of engines filled the entrance of the base and Ratchet seemed too grown. A large green van drove up fallowed by a yellow car and finally Jack and Arcee.
"That was awesome Bulk," a Japanese girl said as she jumped out of the green bot before he transformed.
"That was close Bee," a young boy said as he did the same with the muscle car.
Jake jumped off of Arcee before he noticed Ally was on the upper level watching them. She looked a lot better than last night. And then Miko, Bulkhead, Bumblebee, and Raff saw her standing there.
"Hay who's that," Miko asked as she and the boys came up to the upper level.
"That's Ally," Jack answered. "Ally that is Miko, Raff, Bulkhead, and Bumblebee," Jack said as he gestured to each person and bot.
"Hi where did you come from? Who is your guardian," Miko asked as she approached Ally.
"Ah," was the only thing Ally could say before her cell rang. "Hello," Ally said into the phone without looking at the caller ID.
"Ally… is you…," there was static but Ally knew who it was. "Ah Hi Grim how did you get this number," Ally asked.
"Ratchet… gave me Grimlock number… for emergency's," the dinobot replied and Ally could only think 'What the hell did he do now.'
"What happened," Ally asked.
"Me set… Sunstreaker on fire," Grimlock replied with pride in his voice.
"Hay Grim can you put someone else on the line," Ally asked.
"Ok… Me Grimlock put … Ratchet on," and he did so.
"Hello," the medic snapped.
"Hay what happens when you give Grim a com. link," Ally asked the medic.
"He calls you kiddo," the Hatchet answered with relief in his voice.
"No he sets Sunny on fire," Ally replied as the bots and kids in the room looked at her weird.
"He set …Sunstreaker on fire," Ratchet asked or more like stated.
"Ya but that's beside the point. Do you know how to get me back," Ally asked in a low voice.
"Not… yet but we're… getting close," was the reply before the line was cut.
"Dam," Ally cursed under her breath as she closed the phone.
"Who sat who on fire," Miko asked.
"Ah two of my friends. That have an old fireman suit and one will were it as the other sets them on fire," Ally replied.
"Oh that sounds dangers," Jack said.
"It is if someone doesn't have water or a fire retardant at ready," Ally replied.
"Oh," Miko replied with a frown.
"Ya there not that smart," Ally replied as she rubbed the back of her head.
"So anyway where are you from," Miko asked again.
"Ah I really don't know do to I'm basically a nomad," Ally replied as she looked at Ratchet who was still working on the synthetic energon.
"Really that must suck," Miko replied.
"You get use to it after a while," Ally said as she knew it was both the truth and a lie.
"Hay want to play a video game," Raff offed a remote controller to Ally.
"No thanks I don't like to play video games," Ally replied as she remembered how she and Wheeljack made a game using the simulator from the ship and Prowl was pissed at them for it.
"Ok," Raff replied.
A/N: this is my first story were Alicia is the main character. Please let me know how I did with her. A side note I may have some of the Animated people come in. Oh if you haven't noticed it's the Prime people and G1 so far.
