Thank you to those who have followed/favorited! you mean soooooooo much!

How Our Live Changed… Forever

Chapter Two: The Truth

As I came to, I noticed that I was laying on something soft and had something cradled into my hand. When I opened my eyes, I noticed I was in an extremely large doctor's office type place. God, I hate hospitals. I thought. I looked to the side and noticed my friends lying around me. Then I realized what was in my hand, it was Andrew's hand... I was holding Andrew's hand! Wait, why do I sound so exited?

Then, I heard some metallic footsteps hitting the floor and closed my eyes. "I know your awake, Youngling." Said a gruff and grumpy voice. As he did I opened my eyes and looked over. Standing there was a red and white 'bot. On instinct, I scooted away, right into Andrew, giving me a fuzzy feeling. Ugh, why do I feel like this? "Don't be afraid. I guess you guys really don't remember us, huh?" the 'bot said as I shook my head. "Well, in that case, my name is Ratchet. I'm the team's medic. Let's wake up your friends and go meet the others, ok?" "Umm," I looked at him wearily. "Just trust me and everything will be explained when we get your friends up and to the rec. room." "Ok." I turned to Andrew, who was lying to my right. "Andrew," I whispered, "Dude, wake up." "Five more minutes, Mom." He said as he rolled over, taking my hand with him. "Eeek! I yelled. "Ahhh!" Andrew jumped up. "I'm up! I'm up!" He yelled. Then he looked at our hands and blushed bright red, and pulled his hand out of mine. Good timing too, because everyone else started waking up due to our screaming. "God, I feel like I was hit with a sack of freaking bricks." I heard Phillip say. Hmm, I wonder if that's very far from the truth.

_ LINE BREAK_

"Why exactly, are we trusting these guys?" "Because, Andrew, we have no other choice." "Ok, fine, but if we get killed, it's all on you." "Fine." I whispered as me and Andrew bickered. We had kind of gotten over what had happened earlier, and the others still didn't know, thank god. Ratchet was leading the five of us to the main room. "I may be old, but I can still hear! Besides, you can trust us, I promise. Anyways if we wanted to hurt you, wouldn't we have already done it?" "He has a point, Andrew." Brooklynn said. "Shut up, Brooklynn." Andrew growled. "Boy, someone has their panties in a twist." Rett said with a smirk. Andrew growled and turned around. Ok maybe not fully over it. I figured. As he launched himself at Rett, both Phillip and I caught him by his arms in midair (Kind of hard to do considering how much he weighs). "Whoa, hold it cowboy!" Phillip yelled.

Rett's sarcasm was nothing new. Ever since his older sister Sara left for college, he'd been getting kind of snippy. Then again, it was kind of weird for Andrew to snap like that, too. Everyone was a little tight strung today, unfortunately. We were kind of in a weird situation though so none of us were surprised.

We stood there for a while like this none of use moving. Phillip and I were still holding Andrew and Brooklynn holding Rett back. Finally Phillip broke the silence, "Andrew! What the hell!" Of course, by now we were in front of their base's main room. So of course they were all staring. It was starting to get a bit awkward.

Finally, after a minute or two, Rett turned around and waved awkwardly. "Uhh, hi what's up?" Immediately, everyone visibly relaxed. I looked around and saw a lot of bots I saw before and a few I didn't. There was the big red and blue one, the green one, the white, red, and blue one, the gold and black one, and the small yellow and black one. Also, there was one I didn't see before, it was a femme, and she was a pretty yellow and light blue. Also, they all had this red symbol of sorts on them in one place or another.

Everyone was silent for a moment before the yellow and blue one whispered, "Starblaze?" Immediately Brooklynn's head snapped up. For a second we all just stared as Brooklynn shook her head. "Why do I have the feeling there is something we're missing here?" I asked. I hated to talk in front of strangers, but it was my point and time to step in and be the leader that I tend to have to be sometimes. "Well, first let me introduce us, or actually, reintroduce us." "Wait, wait, wait, reintroduce?" Asked Andrew. I slapped him in the back of the head. He could be such an idiot sometimes! "Let him continue." I said as I looked back at the leader. He nodded, "I am Optimus Prime, the leader, and the yellow and blue femme is Elita-one, my sparkmate," he stated looking at Elita then to Brooklynn. "You already know Ratchet, our medic, the black and gold one is Prowl, our cyber-ninja, and the yellow and black one is his sparkmate, Bumblebee." These last two seemed to wave to me and Rett, for some reason. "The White one is Jazz, our other cyber-ninja," He waved at Phillip "and the green one is bulkhead with his sparkmate, Sari." Bulkhead looked at Andrew while Sari smiled and waved.

"That's grand and all, but what does it have to do with us?" Phillip asked. Brooklynn jabbed him in the ribs "Shut up, weird enough things are happening, don't jinx it!" She whisper-yelled. Of course that got everyone's attention. Rett face-palmed. "Well, now that we're done making fools of ourselves," I glared at the others in a way only they knew, "Can we please get to the point and find out why we are here?" I said as I turned my attention back to the bots. "Oh, and pardon me for being rude," I smiled," The names Skyler. This is Rett, Andrew, Brooklynn, and Phillip." I stated as I pointed to each one in turn.

"You are here because…" Suddenly, the whole base shook violently. "W-wha-t i-s h-hap-pen-ing?" Andrew tried to say. The whole building was shaking so bad that we all hit the floor. This continued for what felt like hours. Then, as suddenly as it began, it stopped.

"I told you I'd be back, Prime!" a voice yelled. "Megatron! Quick hide the kids!" Optimus whispered to Elita. Within seconds she was ushering us deeper into the base while the others ran outside. Soon, we were back in the Med-bay. "What's going on?" I asked. Almost as if she didn't hear me, she kept pacing, almost stepping on Phillip multiple times. After about the fourth time, Brooklynn moved closer to him. Elita immediately moved away a few steps.

"What was that about?" Rett asked Andrew. At that moment, Elita whirled around to face us. "I guess we can't keep this from you for much longer," she said with a solemn face, "and the others wanted to be here for this, but," she looked at Brooklynn while we all glanced at each other, "we are your biological parents. You were kidnaped at a few weeks to six months old by Lockdown and sold to Meltdown. He tried to turn you all into humans but only got halfway before he put you all up for adoption. That's why you are all techno-organics." She let this all process for a moment.

"Brooklynn you are Optimus and I's daughter. Skyler and Rett are siblings and children of Prowl and Bee. Andrew, you are Bulkhead's son. Phillip, you Jazz's kid." This last one she said with disgust. "Also, though you were young, you developed connections. Sky and Andrew you had a fondness for each other, same with Brooklynn and Phillip. Rett you were just like the little brother to everyone."

After all this, she stepped towards Brooklynn. She backed up and shook her head. "T-this is all too much." She turned and ran out the door. "I'll go talk to her, don't worry." Phillip said as he followed. Then I looked up, "I… I think I need some fresh air or something." I said as I ran out of the room. Rett and Andrew looked at each other. "I'm gonna follow her." They said at the same time. Then they ran after me.

I guess I ran a bit fast and I was so blinded by tears that I ran outside. Unfortunately, that was right into the center of the battle. Guess you could say that that was real smart. I didn't notice where I was until I was almost stepped on. Luckily they saw me before they did. Again, unfortunately, it was a decepticon, Blitzwing. "Oh! Look at zee little Human!" said Random. I looked up and screamed as he grabbed me. He started to fly off, and no one dared shoot in fear of hitting me. What did you do this time, Sky? I askedmyself. I struggled as he flew, but, out of fear of falling, I stopped soon after.

Thanks again everybody! Its getting kind of late. Night guys! Don't forget to review, follow, fav, and all that good stuff!
