Sneaking Out and Punishment
I thought I would have Hannah sneak out without her adoptive parent's knowing so I thought I would have Hannah make efforts to get away, don't worry having Optimus act like a father and put Hannah in a jar is going to be what the punishment is. I could use some thoughts on how to make things sound and mentally look interesting because sometimes I have a hard time coming up with different ideas. I did plan on having Hannah have human friends in this and thought at some point they will get in trouble for just being tweens.
Hannah's POV
I got out without Optimus and Elita knowing it but I figured they would know where I would be, with my friends and when I got to the center of Iacon where we agreed to meet. "Nice of you to come by" Ben said "I know I had to make sure Optimus and Elita weren't looking and then left" I said looking around thinking I was followed. "Do you ever think maybe these two are a tad overprotective" Clare asked "sometimes and if Optimus finds out I snuck out he's going to put me in a jar, like a bug" I said. "Now that we are all here why not look around, we haven't seen everything yet" Josh said. "Is it true Hannah you saw the Decepticons" Clare asked as we walked around the plaza with several citizens looking down on us "yes and I really don't want to talk about it" I replied. I didn't want to talk about it because I still get nightmares about it.
"I find it hard to believe it has been three years since Cybertron was restored and humans like us began coming here" Josh said as we walked all over the city of Iacon and I sensed Optimus and Elita. "Guys we better hid in one of the human sized shops Optimus and Elita are looking for me" I said. "Yeah we should" Ben replied as we walked into a bookstore but the good part about it was graphic novels for us to read until I knew my overprotective guardians were gone. 'They won't look here, they can get holoforms but I asked Johnathan at the casher not to tell them' I thought while we waited until Optimus and Elita were gone.
"Sorry Optimus and Elita I haven't seen them" I heard Johnathan say "thank you and if that youngling turns up tell her to come home" I heard Optimus say. When we heard the door close and the next thing I knew Johnathan walked up to us "they're gone, but I hope Optimus doesn't put you in a jar cause I think I heard him say that" he said. "I can't thank you enough" I said to him and soon we walked out. "Optimus did make me feel better about my lack of height" I said to them as we walked hoping Optimus and Elita wouldn't come around the corner to grab me.
Optimus' POV
"Optimus Hannah isn't anywhere" Elita called I could only sigh know Hannah left without a word, again 'just like Bumblebee, Sideswipe and Sunstreaker' I thought as I went to go look for Hannah. "I am going to get a jar" I said deciding I needed to ensure she learns not to walk out without saying anything to me and Elita. When I walked out with a jar that was perfect fit for Hannah "Optimus what is that for" Elita asked "if she is out and we find her I am going to take to her little suggestion, put her in a jar like a 'bug'" I replied. When it was on my desk we went out to look for her I asked several humans and Cybertronians and Hannah's older friend Johnathan but all I got was "I haven't seen her". "We could ask her friends creators if they know where they are" Elita asked.
When we got to the homes' of her friends "they could be wandering around Iacon" was what we were told. We continued to look until Ben's sire Chris suggested "you could wait for Hannah to come home and then you can get her in your palm before she knows what's coming". "Thank you but so far I can sense Hannah coming home" I replied to the sire "Optimus maybe you could be a tad too protective before you know it she and the kids will be teens, then a handful" Chris said as we left.
"We could wait for Hannah to come home" I said to Elita when we made the decision to let Hannah come back home on her own. "Are you really going to put Hannah in a jar" Elita asked "she has suggested that to her friends so yes I am" I said and then I got a call from Hound "Optimus I saw Hannah and her little friends leave the store and it looks like those younglings are going home" Hound said through a call link. "Thank you Hound" I replied knowing I can see if the suggestion to put Hannah in a jar would work.
When we got home I waited for Hannah knowing I was going to make sure she never did this again, period. "Optimus are you sure this is what you want to do" Elita asked. "She needs to understand I will not tolerate this and this is how she is going to learn not to sneak off again" I said and soon Hannah walked in and I made my move.
Third POV
"We should go Hannah but I hope Optimus and Elita won't be mad at you" Ben said "I think he is just worried about me but I better go I thought I saw Hound and I know he is going to tell Optimus" Hannah said as the friends went their separate ways. 'I better get back and hope Optimus doesn't get me' Hannah thought as she walked into the home she lives in with her adoptive parents and the next thing she knew a pair of metal fingers came down on her and plucked her up from the ground and soon she was facing her father, Optimus.
Hannah's POV
I was looking Optimus in his optics and he was walking into his office 'where are you taking me Optimus' I said through our bond "you need to learn not to sneak out Hannah we were worried about you, you could have been taken. Your late creators asked us to protect you and you respond by leaving without telling me and Elita" he said I knew he was mad now so I made no effort to move in between his fingers that had me by the scruff of my shirt. When he entered his office his servo lowed into a huge glass or what seemed to be a glass like jar "you are going to stay in here and think about your actions today little one" Optimus said. The jar was three times my size and he did make sure I could walk around in there, now I know how the fireflies I caught felt when I caught them.
When he put me down and moved his huge servo away I could only sit down and just be alone with my thoughts while he sat down, optics burning holes in my skull. 'Damn he's scary when he's angry' I thought as he continued to give me a stern look "Hannah I have heard you say I was going to put you in a jar like a bug and I decided to do this as punishment. You are going to stay in there until I say so" he said as he went through files. I didn't make any reply knowing he was mad enough as it was. I felt very small knowing I had made my father angry with me and now he really did put me in a jar, I could only look outside my prison reading what I could of the files Optimus was placing down. I didn't make any eye contact with him when we did and now I know better than to make him angry, he only wanted me to be safe, even when Megatron was out there.
Optimus' POV
I watched Hannah in her jar but I could sense she was thinking about what she had done to make me upset with her and I could sense she was feeling very small. 'You should be feeling like that Hannah, I am your father now and you will be treated like my little youngling' I thought as I watched her. She looked so small but then again she is going to remain in the jar for several Earth minutes knowing she had plenty to think about after what had happened. She made no sounds and would look up when she heard her mother walk by, I watched her when I would glance at files but soon I would decide to remove her from the jar. She made no eye contact with me, I knew if I did something such as the jar as punishment she would understand not to do it again, just like the day we adopted her. So far it was pleasant to have Hannah right here with me; I then noticed she was reading the files I was putting down next to her jar. 'I have a planet to run little one as Prime though you need to think about what you had done' I thought.
Elita soon entered and got down to Hannah's eye level "now Hannah I see your father has made this thought of yours into a reality and if you do anything like this again you will remain in here for a while" she said. Hannah made no sounds, not even to argue with her. "Optimus when are you going to let her out" Elita asked as she stood up "very soon" I replied when I placed the last file down and I took the jar and said "go to the side". Hannah obeyed knowing my stern tone was enough and when she was in my palm "do you understand what happens when you decided actions Elita and I would not approve of" I asked "yes" Hannah said. "Hannah I know you feel small but little one I do get concerned for you, we still do not know if Megatron's remaining followers are still out there" I said gently to her.
Hannah's POV
Elita said what she needed to say to me but I made no reply knowing my parents were mad now but then "Optimus when are you going to let her out" Elita asked as she stood up "very soon" Optimus replied when he placed the last file down and took the jar and said "go to the side". I did so because his tone was stern and soon I was in his palm "do you understand what happens when you decided actions Elita and I would not approve of" he asked "yes". "Hannah I know you feel small but little one I do get concerned for you, we still do not know if Megatron's remaining followers are still out there" Optimus said gently. "I" I was about to start "won't do it again, I know Hannah" Optimus said and I hugged his chest hearing his spark.
"Just as you were eight Hannah" Optimus said and he put me on his shoulder.
