Hey! I'm back! Did you miss me? I finally have the time to write this chapter. The entire time on Sunday I was looking forward to writing this story. Anyway, I will try to update every day except for Saturday and Sunday. But if I fail... please forgive me.
Oh, and thanks for the review, Wheeliefan101! I'm glad to hear people liking my stories! Really! I really appreciate it, and love your stories. :)
Okay! I've written chapter 2, so happy reading!
Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers Prime or their characters at all in any way. The only things I own are mine and my sister's OCs.
Chapter 2
Heidi was yet at another meeting the Decepticons, so I was stuck home with nothing to do.
Lucky me.
I didn't want to leave the cool, air-conditioned house because in Jasper, the temperature near the end of summer could get pretty high. But too high when you have to stay inside no matter what. Although today wasn't too particularly hot, I just didn't want to get up the couch.
Most of the time when Heidi's out on some crazy mission with her pet dog, who happens to be a mini-dragon, I'd just end up watching whatever's on the television. But, apparently, the signal's out due to some kind of interference.
I sigh and decide to sit on the porch steps and watch the traffic on our road. I quickly remember that this road barely had any traffic for the six months that I've been here, so I end up watching the birds.
Nobody lived on this road, probably no one has ever heard of it. I had just found it when I was going for a drive and found an old rusted sign that read "Smallville Rd". Out of curiosity, I drove down it and found an old abandoned house with a "For Sale" sign in the yard. I bought it the next day.
Having chose this place, we could enjoy the sensation of living on a road with no distractions, such as noisy neighbors and loud cars. Although, I wish the school was closer. We have to drive my little Bug 25 miles to school every day when it starts. It's a pain to even get the car to start, but it was the only one I could afford.
Gazing across the clumpy green yard, I get to my feet and walk over to my decent-sized pond. I study my disheveled reflection in the water. I was dressed in red sneakers, faded blue jeans, and a flame tank top. My long red hair cascaded past my shoulders. I smile to myself, thinking of how Heidi had always wondered how my hair was such a vibrant shade of red. I told her it was my natural hair color, but doesn't believe me.
I was distracted from my thoughts when I heard the thunderous roar of car engines racing down the road. Turning toward the sound, I had just enough time to see at least 20 purple muscle cars with tinted windows speed down the dirt road, led by a shiny red sports car. In a second, they had already sped away.
"Whoa," I breathed. I knew that if you see any of those racing cars in the middle of nowhere, there is going to be a race. It doesn't surprise me that they picked this road, I haven't seen cops anywhere around here. Probably because they don't even know this road even exists.
I ran to the side of the house and wheeled out my bicycle. I have always wanted to see one of those street races, but I never figured out where they were taking place.
Hopping on my bike, I pedaled as fast as I could down the dirty road.
After ten minutes of biking, I start to hear a sort of drilling noise. I found it strange, but shrugged it off. Tired, I pull to the side of the road near a boulder and take a break. I lean against the giant rock, trying to catch my breath. The drilling noise sounded on the other side of it.
I'm just about to hop back on my bike when I hear a loud, commanding voice over all of the drilling. "Pick up the pace, troopers! We need to drill out this relic before the Autobots can pick up its frequency."
'Autobots?!' I thought. I sneak over to the edge of the boulder and peak around it. I'm surprised at what I see.
In front of me was a Decepticon mining operation. What used to be giant rocks are now destroyed with blue crystals sticking from them. But what really caught my eyes was a small crater with a giant drill, excavating dirt and rocks around it.
Then it finally occurred to me that there was going to be no race. The cars that I saw were really Decepticons. 'And I was really looking forward to a race...' I thought glumly.
The dark purple identicle drones working mindlessly to dig up something probably useless. The only 'Con who looked different was a slightly taller red mech, who was impatiently tapping his foot, or pede.
I didn't want to get in trouble with Decepticons, especially not the Autobots. 'What do I do?' I couldn't just pedal back, they would see me if I left this boulder. I quickly came up with an idea. I pulled out my cell phone from my pocket and dialed Heidi's number. 'Maybe she could help.'
After a minute of silence from the phone, I remembered there was something blocking the signal. 'Looks like I'm on my own,' I thought.
Looking back at the site, I found that the troopers were wrapping the drilling to an end. A purple 'Con pulled a lever and the loud noise of the drill ceased. Another drone dropped down into the crater, only to return with a rusted metal cylinder.
"Give me that!" The red mech snatched the device out of the drones hands, or servos, and pushed him back into the hole and lands with a loud clank.
'Well he sure is nice,' I thought sarcastically. I almost laugh when the trooper crawls back to the ground and stands, as if nothing has just happened.
The red Decepticon inspected the device as he mused, "I just need to find the frequency blocker..." He used his pointy fingers, or digits, to pull out a small red Autobot insignia and holds it closer to his face and smiles. "There you are! Once I destroy you, I'll be able to call for a ground bridge." Dropping it to the ground, he stomps it to pieces with his pede. "But," He looks down to the bits and pieces of scrap metal he had just smashed and frowns. "The Autobots will be able to track the this relic until we get it to the warship."
My eyes grew wide. 'The Autobots?! They're coming?!' I was trying to find a way to get out of here when a trooper's voice yelled out.
"Autobots!"
So that's chapter 2. Sorry this was a cliffhanger... you are just going to wait 'till tomorrow to see what happens next. :)DUN DUN DUUUN! This was a lot longer than the first one, wasn't it?
Well, thanks for reading! Don't forget to review, favorite, follow, whatever you do. And I will be back... TOMORROW! MWA HA HA HA HA! :)
