Soundwave's daughter
Harmony woke up the sun shining on her face. She rolled over to look at her alarm clock and saw that it read 6:45 AM. She groaned and mumbled, "It's too, early. It's summer vacation for god's sake." It was true summer vacation started just yesterday and all of her friends were going on month long trips to places like, California, Tennessee, and Miami. Harmony was going nowhere.
She lived with her mother, Halle, was single. She was single when she had Harmony. Harmony's mom always got nervous when Harmony asked whom her father was, and she would say "He will come for you when you're of age to know, I promise Harm." That's her Mom's nickname for Harmony, Harmony doesn't like it thought and she has hearing like a bat according to her mom so when her mom says it she can't get away with it.
Harmony got up form her bed, because when she woke up she couldn't fall back asleep. Which most of the really sucked for Harmony because she doesn't sleep to well at night. But every once in awhile she feels some one sending confront to her and she can fall back asleep, but even then those nights were rare.
So Harmony got up took a shower, put clothes on, and meet her mom in the kitchen. "Morning Harmony, you're up early," Mom said as I poured cereal into a bowl. "Yea Mom you know the saying the early bird gets the worm." I said as I put milk into my bowl and I smiled at my Mom. "Yea I guess so… look at the time I'm going to be late for work! I love you Harm I'll be home late. So do me a favorer and do the, dishes, laundry, and for god's sake clean your room and the living room."
I sighed this was going to be a long day, and it was going to suck, really suck. "Yes Mom I'll get right on it as soon as I finish my cereal." I said with a sigh, my Mom smiled "I know this is not how you want to spend your summer vacation be we don't have the money this year sorry Harmony." She said, and she leaned in to kiss me good-bye. " I better get running before the boss yells at me and fires me." She said looking at the clock again. "Kay' Mom bye, love you." I said "Bye Harm." She said as she ran out the door.
She decided that she was going to start on the living room first, and because her Mom was a neat freak she only had to pick up a few books and put them on the coffee table. Then she did the dishes and laundry, once again not to much to clean because having a neat freak for a Mom has it's perks not much to clean up because every thing is always clean. Finally to get started on her room she did not get the neat freak gene from her Mom so she had to assume that her Dad wasn't a neat freak.
Harmony lived up to her name. She had staff paper all over her room, a keyboard, a laptop, a desktop computer, and 3 drawers of flash drives full of music she has made, so far. Her Mom said every time she came in the room that a musical tornado hit the area called "Harmony's music corner." Which had moved out of the corner and on to the desk, bed, and floor.
Harmony decided to get started from the bed to the corner. She looked at the clock and decided to time herself the clock read 10:23 AM. If she could get done at 12:18 she could beat her old record of 125 minutes. Ready, Set, GO!
As it turns out she could not beat her old record she wasn't done until 2:24. "Well at least my chores for the day are done." She said to no one in particular. Her stomach rumbled she skipped lunch and she decided to go eat. As she ate her PB sandwich there was a knock on the door. Harmony threw the rest of her sandwich into the garbage only half of it gone, and answered the door.
There at the door was a tall man with, short blue army style hair, and a blue jacket with a tape deck image on the shirt on with a blue jacket with white and red highlights on the selves and blue and white pants on was at the door. "Hi are you Harmony Sound Lynn?" the man asked looking at her in a look that said, amazing. "Yes, who are you before I talk to you any more."
The man smirked "I'm Solomon, and I'm your Father Harmony." He said still looking at me. "Is your Mother home?" I took a few seconds before answering "No, she's working late tonight. Sorry Solo." He razed an eyebrow "I mean Dad. Sorry for calling you Solo, Dad." I said even thought it felt weird saying "Dad" now and I had so many questions to ask.
"Harmony can you call you Mother?" Dad asked me. I nodded "Yeah come in Solo… I mean Dad" I said and blushed, Dad smirked. "It's acceptable if you want to give me a nickname before you call me your Father." I smiled and hugged him who I think surprised him a ton I think. "Thanks Solo!" I said Solo chuckled "Anytime Harmony." I smiled. "Just two questions, one: why call me Solo and not my full name Solomon, and two: can I see your room?" he said an inquisitive look in his eyes. "I call you Solo because it's faster to say then Solomon. And Yes you can go in my room have fun."
"I'm going to call my Mom. My room is up the stairs take a left then a right and your there." I said reaching for my cell phone. Solo nodded "Ok, Harmony."
I dialed Mom's number. She wouldn't answer so I guessed she was working on paper work, so I decided to text her.
'Mom Solomon here and he says he's my Dad is it true?'
After a few minutes she responded 'Yes I'll be there in a hour talk to him and tell him what happed since you were born.'
'Ok so I tell him nothing, Mom nothing exciting ever happens in my life and musical accomplishments don't count I get those all the time' I texted right back.
'Ok, tell him your musical accomplishments he loves music so he'll be happy to see what you accomplished on your own' she typed back faster this time.
'Ok, Mom I'll give it a try 3 u' I typed back.
'Ok, Harm 3 u too.' she typed and that ended the conversation and just as I was putting my phone away I heard a crash from my room it sounded like something hard hitting the ground. "Oh no!" screamed and ran up the stairs. And there on the floor my laptop all busted to the point you could see the data chips inside. "Oh no, not again!" I screamed. "Again?" Solo asked "Yeah this happed once before when it fell from my window to the ground below and I fixed it." I said in a to calm for this situation voice I always did that according my Mom. "Ahhhh I see then."
I put it on my bed to fix it later. "So this is my room." I said directing my attention to Solo. Solo looked around my room and pointed to something and asked, "What's this?" he asked me. "That is one of my musical awards, I get one almost every week." I said in a bored voice. "Ahhhh I see do you play any instruments?" Solo asked my while he looked at one of my musical awards. "Yeah I play, cello, violin, viola, bass, percussion, trumpet, and flute. I am starting to learn how to play clarinet, and French horn."
Solo chuckled "I see you're a very musical person Harmony. If you don't mind me asking could you play one of your pieces for me?" I looked him like he was crazy, and then regained my composure. "Yes, which one and which instrument?" I asked heading where my copies of my music were. "You pick the piece, and viola." Solo answered I nodded. I got out the instrument and a song I wrote from a song and made it in to viola music. The song was Story of A Girl.
This is the story of a girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
While she looks so sad in photographs
I absolutely love it when she SIMLES!
I sang as I did the sing and then I herd my Mom pull up the driveway. "Solo my Mom's here." I said putting my instrument away, and music to. Solo looked at me and then at the door "uhh I kind of forgot how to get downstairs." Solo said sheepishly I smiled. "That's ok I need to go downstairs to Solo, I'll show you again." I said chuckling; he looked at me and led me out of my room. My Mom came through the door and smiled when she saw Solomon, Solo let go of my hand and went to hug my Mom. "Solomon." My Mom said as she buried her face into his broad shoulders. "Halle it's been a long time. I see you razed Harmony well." He said rubbing my Moms' back. My Mom chuckled "Thanks Solomon, and yes it has been a long time." My Mom said breaking away from the hug. I sighed I didn't like love fests so I decided to go back up to my room and stay there till dinner. As I turned Solo must have saw me trying to sneak away. "Harmony where are you going?" he asked, I turned around "I don't like love fests so I was going up to my room to hide out until dinner." I said truthfully. Solo must had believed me because he nodded one as if saying, "Ok, go ahead." I repeated the action and saying "Ok, thanks." And left up the stairs changing my course to go to the roof.
I went to the roof a lot I had a mini pad up here with a, radio, chips, soda, blanket (for the cold nights), and a telescope because I really liked to study stars. I went here a lot for the time because it was one of those nights when I couldn't sleep, and fell asleep here. Which one time was really stupid because I fell of the roof and broke my wrist, I told my Mom I fell out my bed room window as I opened it and tumbled out by tripping over my laptop. That's when the rule was made that I had to clean my room once a week at least. Which I don't complain about now, because I can see my floor.
I looked at my radio/clock it was 5:37 PM "What a exciting day." I said to no one in particular. I could hear my parents talking downstairs. I was getting sleepy, very sleepy. I decided to take a nap on the roof I had a long day meet the Dad I never knew. Also I figured that with my Mom talking to Solo she would not be making dinner to eat until later. So I settled down to sleep, yawned and fell asleep with ease.
When I woke up I was in some ones arms. "Hey you wake up slowly." A male voice said it took me a few seconds to realize who it was, and it was Solomon. I groaned Solo chuckled "Awwww come on I know you don't want to wake up, but you have to." Solo said sighing. Then I felt that someone was urging me to wake up, and I complied. "What happed last time I knew I was on the roof sleeping." I said, groaning again.
"Well Harmony your Mother told me to go get you for dinner and you weren't in your room, but window was open. I guessed you were on the roof." Solo said as he set me down. "By the way nice place you got up there show it to me sometime?" Solo added, "I don't know if I see that you can be trusted I will." I said chuckling. I decided it was a good time to look at the clock 7:19 PM. "Hey Solo how long was I sleeping after Mom told you to get me." I said my mind going blank "Don't worry it's been only 5 minutes, and your Mom thinks you and I are getting to know each other better." Solo said calmly, I sighed in relief. "Good 'cause my Mom will get worried about me. Solo since my Mom will probably ask questions about what we talked about, ask me some questions and I'll ask you some questions." I said because I know well enough to know that she will ask what we talked about.
"Ok Harmony, how old are you, do you have any friends at school, and how much do you like music?" Solo said all at once, I didn't know he had so many words to say all at once; he smirked as if he heard it. I took a breath "I'm 13, no friends, I love music more than any thing." I said with incredible speed Solo smiled he actually smiled there's a first time for every thing I guess. "Harmony I have something to tell you," Solo was cut off by my Mom yelling "Harmony, Solomon, your dinner is getting cold!" My Mom yelled up, Solo and I flinched, I guess we both have sensitive ears I thought. "Coming Mom!" I yelled back, flinching at my own voice. "Kay' guys" My Mom yelled back. "I'll tell you some other time Harmony lets go eat." Solo said, I nodded in agreement, and together we walked down the stairs.
We walked into the kitchen together I smelled my favorite meal. Chicken spedies, green beans, white rice, and a Coke. It had been a while since my Mom made my favorite meal so some thing special is going or has happened to me specially. "Hi Mom, what with the special meal?" I said inquisitively, Mom smiled. "We have something to tell you, Harmony." My Mom said looking to Solo, I razed an eyebrow. "Ok then… do you mind telling me what it is then Mom?" I said now weary I thought she was going to say we were moving in with Solo, or something like that. My Mom looked to Solo "Do you want to tell her, Solomon?" My Mom asked hopefully, she didn't like to be the bearer of bad news, Solo nodded once as a "Yes". Solo sighed "Harmony do you watch the news?" Solo asked me, I nodded a "Yes" I really wanted to see where this was going. "Do you ever hear of the Decpticons?" he asked another nod "Yes". "Do you know any of their names?" he said curiosity in his eyes. "Yes I do, Megatron, Rumble, Ravage, Starscream, Thrust, Ratbat, and Soundwave." I said watching as he smirked when I said Rumble, Ravage, Ratbat, and Soundwave.
"Well what if I told you I was one of them?" Solo said, and I gawked. "What? Which one are you then? Wait then I'm your kid! Well this has been an eventful day!" I screamed Solo came to grab me, I ducked. "Harmony to answer your questions, I'm Soundwave third-in-command of the Decpticons and communications officer. Yes you are my offspring, and yes it has been a eventful day for you and I….Harmony what's wrong?" Solo.. No Soundwave asked… "I can't believe this… wait do I have siblings?" I thought little did I know my mind was not private. "Harmony you have to believe this because it's true, and yes you do have siblings 5 to be exact." Soundwave said I scowled, I felt arms rap around me, and I froze in place for a split second then started kicking. "Hey sis you're really strong for a girl!" Two voices said in unison, I stopped kicking and only squirmed. "Rumble Frenzy: desist and face your sister." Soundwave said the arms fell of me and they came into front view.
They looked human like Soundwave. They shared the same features just different colors. "Rumble is blue and purple so Frenzy must be the red and black one" I thought once again, I was reminded that my mind was not safe. "Wow smart chick! She knows who's who! Awesome!" Rumble and Frenzy yelled and gave me a hug, I locked up, I wasn't a person who liked hugs or gave them and when I did it was birthdays and stuff like that. "Heyyy sis why are you locking up?" a voice inside my head said, I looked around I didn't see and one who could have said it "Hey over here! In front of you!" the voice inside my head screamed, I inwardly flinched. "Rumble, Frenzy? Wait I'm just going crazy… Yup that's it I'm going crazy." I thought I heard Rumble and Frenzy sigh in unison "Your NOT going crazy sis, it's called a bond. It lets us read each other's thoughts. By the way you wake up a lot don't you?" Rumble said ending with a chuckle. "Wait that was you?" I asked "Yes and no. We take turns; I made a little competition out of it. The competition is "who can get you to fall asleep the fastest". So far the winner is Soundwave at 7 minutes and 45.3 seconds. Last place is Ravage with 20 minutes and 59.9 seconds." Rumble said to me thought the bond.
I looked at the clock 9:48 Rumble looked to. "Well we are going to have to go, right Soundwave?" Frenzy said "Answer: yes Frenzy. Inquiry: may we take Harmony tomorrow to meet the rest of her siblings?" Soundwave asked my Mom, she turned to me "It's up to you honey, and I'm not you." I thought and turned to Soundwave, nodded once. Rumble and Frenzy started to jump up and down screaming over the bond "YES! YES!" I inwardly flinched and Soundwave did to I felt it over the bond. "CAN YOU GUYS STOP I NEED MY EARS" Rumble and Frenzy stopped screaming and faced me "I learned this from the humans. Harmony I would run if I were you." They said in unison, and did as they said and ran for my life up to my room. Locked my room ran to the window and opened it up I went to my nice little pad up there. Bad idea.
They were waiting up there for me, in their real forms. "Hey sis don't look so surprised, Megatron won't let us come back over here. Soundwave figured that you wouldn't mind doing a few nights sleepover. You don't do you?" Frenzy said I shook my head. "Can I pack some stuff I need food, clothes, ect." I asked Rumble nodded. "Yea go get packed and we can leave before Soundwave does." Frenzy said excitedly. "Ok be back in a minute." I said nodding. I ran in side to my room and pack clothes, my secret stash of food (which had chips, soda, water, and granola bars), my girl needs, and odds and ends (sheet music, some of my own music, and my iPod which had recording of all my pieces). I some how I got this all in a medium size messenger bag; I work magic when I want to. I came up trough the window, and looked around I didn't see them. "Look up sis." I looked up and it was Rumble. "You pack light for a femme, don't you?" Rumble asked I nodded a yes. Rumble came down lower, and I held you my arms for him to grab, but he went lower and picked me up bridal style. "Heyyyy!" I whined, Rumble chuckled I shook my head, and laid it on his shoulder I was still tired.
Even for in being summer it was still freezing, I was shivering after about 16 minutes in the air I should have grabbed my jacket. "Cold much, sis?" Frenzy asked stupidly. I snuggled in to Rumble, he chuckled. "Yes, I'm not metal Frenzy." I replied sarcastically "Don't hate the metal sis." Frenzy and Rumble said in unison, I rolled my eyes. "Harmony, Rumble, and Frenzy: ETA 37 more minutes until arrival at base. Harmony: come here now." Soundwave said over the bond, Rumble took me over to Soundwave and dropped me in Soundwave's palm. Soundwave put me up to his cassette tape deck, and I was immediately rapped in warmth, it sent a chill down my spine. I heard the cassettes chuckle at my reaction, Soundwave and I heard I sent a death glare at them. Needless to say they stopped chuckling as soon as they saw my glare. I heard a steady beat coming from Soundwave's chest, I snuggled in to him more, it faintly reminded me of a heartbeat I liked hearts it the first beat know to mankind. Me being a musical person and all liked it a ton.
I all of a sudden felt tired "Harmony: recharge." Soundwave said, no ordered, it took me 2 seconds to see that recharge meant sleep. I nodded slowly I felt the bond again someone sending comfort through the bond; I looked up and saw that Soundwave was looking me; he stretched out a finger and started rubbing my back I started sleeping about 3 minutes after that. Best sleep I ever got.
Once I woke up I heard screaming, one in a baritone voice the other an almost girly screaming. "Soundwave how dare you tarnish the Decpticon cause with this, this love child!" the baritone voice, then the girly one picked it up "Yes Soundwave how dare you, of all Mechs it had to be you, personally I thought Hook would be first." I flinched at the voice "Way to high is it a girl?" I thought, "I would stay down if I were you sis." Rumble said "Can you at least tell me who's, who?" I asked Rumble. "Yea the one you called a girl is Starscream. The baritone voice is Megatron. Screamer really does sound like a girl doesn't he?" Rumble said answering my question. By the time Rumble finished the argument was over. "Fine Soundwave, but I don't want any more human children running around. Same goes for you Starscream." Megatron said, Starscream sounded offended "What's that suppose to mean?" Megatron just continued "Watch her, and if she gets stepped on, to bad for you Soundwave." Soundwave must have felt me anxiety, because he sent me comfort. "Yes Lord Megatron." Soundwave said, and then we left the room.
"Can I "wake up" now?" I asked "Answer: No. ETA: 4 minute 41 seconds and counting." Soundwave said, and brought me closer to his cassette tape deck again. "Ok Soundwave, are people staring at us?" I asked, "Yes Harmony. ETA: 2 minutes and 12 seconds." he replied. "Who?" I asked "Skywarp, Thundercracker, the Reflector trio, Swindle, Blitzing, Thrust, Ramjet, and Dirge." Soundwave told me. "Stalkers…" I thought Soundwave chuckled. "We're here you can wake up and meet the rest of your family." Soundwave told me, I nodded and "woke up" for, say.
I was greeted by 2 cold looks, and three really excited ones. "Uh….Hi?" I said timidly, "Hey! I'm Batbat and you know Rumble and Frenzy. The two over there are our sisters Ravage and Laserbeak. They don't like you very much although I don't know why there's nothing to hate about you, well except for being a human…" The one called Ratbat told me, I turned over to my sisters and nodded one in a greeting, and they nodded back. I started to yawn this was very tiring, meeting my Dad and finding out he was with the Decpticons. I had the right to yawn, as far as I was concerned. "Sis what did you just do?" Rumble asked me, I looked at him like he was stupid. "I yawned it's a natural thing for humans…Rumble what time is it?" I asked yawning again, Rumbles optics dimmed "12:53 A.M. why?" Rumble asked looking at me as if expecting someone to say "Ha-ha you fell for it!" but I wasn't "Rumble humans need a certain amount of sleep in order to function." I said yawning as I closed my eyes and collapsed. "SIS!" they screamed at simultaneously Soundwave catching me "Orders: recharge. Harmony: will stay with me until a human bed is prepared." I nodded "Ok Soundwave… where is your room?" I asked inquizlity. "Harmony: will wait and find out soon. Rumble Frenzy: get your sisters things and get her ready for bed, if she falls asleep before then." Rumble and Frenzy nodded and came to me and lifted me by my armpits and slung me over their shoulder. "Come on sis stay awake Frenzy and I don't want to undress you if you fall sleep so please stay up for all that is good in the universe. PLEASEEEEESSSSS." Frenzy screamed at me shaking me to make me hopefully stay wake. Sadly it did work, so they got my stuff and picked my PJ's and went and asked them the dumbest question on Earth. "Guys where is the bathroom or something.." I asked awkwardly "Oh that's another thing Soundwave has to set up until then… we'll just close our optics." Rumble said I could feel his embarrassment over the bond "How about this, you go out of the room and come in when I'm decent. Sound good to you guys?" I asked Frenzy nodded "Just don't tell Soundwave we let you out of our sites Harmony." I nodded "Got it… well leave." I said after standing there for 25 seconds. "Oh right bye." Rumble and Frenzy said in unison, and they left. I got dressed and ready for bed as fast as I could. Then I went out to see Rumble and Frenzy there optics were offline, not closed.
"Soundwave are you there?" As I waited for an answer, my point that Rumble and Frenzy were sleeping was proven they slumped down to the ground, and didn't wake up. "Harmony: where are you and what about Rumble and Frenzy?" Soundwave asked "I don't know where they took me, and do you guys sleep?" I asked I felt irritation going through the bond. "Harmony: I know where you are just stay there I'll meet you, and yes we do sleep." I mentally nodded know he would feel it or see it. "Ok thanks what's your ETA?" I asked, if it was longer than 15 minutes I was going to see if pranks on humans like a hand in warm water trick and stuff like that work. Then I slapped my self in the face, my mind was no longer private. "Harmony: don't do it you will be stalked by the twins, they will avenge them selves. ETA: 5 minutes." Soundwave said I inwardly cringed. I looked around, it was really cold here I started to shiver again. "Harmony: unplanned problems ETA changed to 1 hour." Soundwave said "Ok Soundwave see you then." I replied "Harmony: get some recharge, bye." "Bye" I said in a yawning voice. I figured Rumble and Frenzy although sleeping was still warm, and I was right when I touched Frenzy's shin it was warm. There was a little space between Rumble and Frenzy small enough for me at least. I think I fell asleep on Frenzy's shoulder, but I don't know 'cause I can't remember.
When I woke up I felt warmness around me and glass behind my back. I figured it was Soundwaves' cassette thing-a-ma-bobber, I didn't know the real name for it. I tried to get up but failed miserably. Soundwaves' hand was put protectively around me, as if someone would sneak up and steal me right from under his… nose…. Mask? I looked to see if it was light out and it wasn't. I was probably one of those nights when I woke up for no apparent reason at all. I hated those, now frequent, nights.
Soundwave must have known I was up because he lifted his hand off me, and put it to the side. I looked up to see his face his visor was glinting in the little moonlight. In a voice barely audible I asked "What was the "Unplanned problems"?" I asked he responded with "Problems: not of Harmony's concern. Harmony: why are you not sleeping?" he asked his voice more audible than mine. "I don't know Soundwave I just don't really sleep any more." As I replied I felt the bond again, and everyone's sleepiness' flooded me at once. My head hit his hand, which he had put under me just seconds before; he brought me to his visor and scanned me. It felt tingly. Then he rolled over and placed me on his chest, right over that thing that sounded like a heartbeat. I snuggled into his chest I still loved that beat. "Harmony: should sleep." Soundwave said rubbing my back with his thumb. "Ok Soundwave, but what did you just do to me. When you scanned me?" I asked if he did it just to worry me, which I didn't believe he would not do, and well then mission accomplished. Soundwave seemed to pause for a moment like he was thing about his options. "Harmony: I did it to see if you're ok medically." Soundwave responded. "What did it say then?" I asked if he thought it was necessary to do that right now there had to be a reason... right? "Harmony: you are underweight, don't get enough sleep, and suffer from anorexia." Soundwave said I visually cringed when he said anorexia.
"Ok… good night Soundwave." I said rolling over my back facing his face. I was beyond mad he knew my secret is there nothing I can keep safe from my family now? "No Harmony there is no secrets in this family, now go to sleep." Soundwave said over the bond. Soundwave picked me up and moved me so I was facing his face or… mask? He started to rub my back with his thumb; I closed my eyes slowly, yawned and fell asleep. Again.
