Her Guardian
The Fight
Sorry in advance for any mistakes in here, explanation at end.
The next few of days played out the same. AnnaBeth would wake up for summer school, get ready with an annoying Megatron on her heels, and then leave. Megatron made sure she didn't see holly at all, either it was either 'Im sick' or 'I'm grounded' excuses, he even had told her to tell Holly she didn't want to see her anymore, but AnnaBeth refused to go that low.
Then she would go home with Megatron demanding that his questions about her life were answered, she swore he was up to something, she just didn't know what. Either they would go back to her house to see her uncle or go back to it empty, which it was empty most of the time.
It was Friday and AnnaBeth was particularly dreading to go home. Today would be when her Aunt and Uncle drover her down to the Boarding School to meet the head lady. When she got home she didn't have time to put away her things, instead her aunt and uncle rushed her back out the house and into their car, they then drove to the school.
When they got there she was practically shoved out of the car and into the building, which was huge and dreary on the outside, and the interior was just the same.
"Welcome to Miss Ashton's Boarding School For Girls!" A woman in her 40's said. "I am Miss Ashton, the head of this fine school" Her smile was large and more fake then not. "Miss Doddle?" AnnaBeth suppressed a snicker at her aunts former name.
"It's Muroe now."
"Ahh, Mrs. Muroe. I am so glad that you chose us again to take in your precious daughter."
"She's our niece." Crystella said tightly.
"Ooh, parents not want her." The woman's tone was sarcastic and AnnaBeth felt tears prick her eyes at the thought of her parents.
"Don't start crying, you'll just show that you're weak." Megatron said in his cruel tone. She kicked back and tried to hit his pede, but he made her foot slip through him making her trip herself back. AnnaBeth fell on her butt and groaned, she hated how he could do that. The adults turned and gave her a weary eye.
"Sorry I thought I saw a bug." She shrugged and pushed herself up off of the ground. Miss Ashton started to talk again and walk, most likely showing them around the place, she really wasn't paying attention, instead AnnaBeth stayed behind and glared at Megatron. "Never embarrass me like that again." She said letting venom lace her voice.
"Then listen, and I won't have to human." He said glaring back at her.
"It's AnnaBeth."
"It's whatever I call you, deal with it... you should just be lucky I don't severely hurt you like my wretched Second In Command."
"It's freakin AnnaBeth! Use it!"
"I wouldn't yell human for it's your insanity that is on the line." She tried to punch him but her fist went through his body making her jerk forward.
"AnnaBeth." She looked to see her uncle looking back to her and she straightened up.
"I thought a saw another bug." She poked the wall and tried to give an innocent smile.
"Are you coming?" He asked and she nodded, at lease they hadn't caught her yelling at an invisible force. AnnaBeth turned from the wall and walked to her aunt and uncle to finish the dreaded tour.
When they got back to the house AnnaBeth walked to her room and slammed the door shut. She stomped over to her bed and screamed into her large pillow trying to muffle the sound. She heard the sound of something semi sold walking through her door and she growled.
"Go Away!" She pointed at he door while keeping her face it the pillow.
"No." Megatron folded his arms and stood there watching as the human girl threw what the humans called a 'Temper Tantrum'.
"I'm not going! I'm not going! I'm not Going!" She yelled the same phrase over and over until Megatron told her shut up. "Don't tell me what to do, you freak. You're half the reason I'm going."
"Enlighten me on how that is." He asked raising an optic ridge.
"You make me look like a crazy lunatic in front of my aunt and uncle."
"That would be your fault."
"It's yours, if you wouldn't talk so much, I could at least look a little bit sane."
"Well if you didn't reply to my comments you wouldn't be in this mess, would you." He was more stating a fact than asking a question.
"Don't try to blame it on me!" She threw her pillow and him and it hit his frame without a sound before falling to the ground.
"Was that supposed to hurt." Her face heated up with anger and he kept his stance, not even the slightest bit intimidated by her and her childish actions. She shot from her bed and flew her window open without a word. AnnaBeth then crawled out and slipped on her hoodie, looking back every few seconds to make sure Megatron wasn't following her. As she walked alone on the beach she heard the sound of ATV's coming closer, soon enough they slowed and she looked over to see Butch and his gang of delinquents. She growled and slipped on her hood not wanting to even look at them. The teen boy rode out in front of her and revved his engine making the tires fling sand into her face. They all laughed while he waited for her to catch up to him.
"What's the matter orphan, cat got your tongue." She rolled her eyes and kept on walking. "Look fellas, someones giving us the silent treatment." He parked his ATV in front of her so she couldn't walk away. "I can make you part of our team and I'll make sure no one makes fun of you." He tilted her chin up with his finger and she glared at him. She then quickly shot her chin down and bit his finger making him retract it. "Y-you bit me, you really bit me." She spit on the ground and pulled off her hood.
"You need a bath." His friends withheld snickers at her comment.
"And you need a life, come one guys, this girls no fun to pick on." They all rode off making dirt fling up onto her. He was the worst player on the planet, thought that he could get any girl whether he liked them or not. She wouldn't play his game though, he was to weak, always making his ego better by bringing down others. AnnaBeth replaced a stray hair and sighed, nothing was taking away the thoughts of her having to go to boarding school, especially the woman who claimed to 'love helping hurting girls', she was a lie wrapped up into a lie.
When AnnaBeth got back to her house she saw Megatron flipping through some old books of her's upon closer look she saw that it was her diaries that she had kept.
"Get you hand's off of those!" She said snatching the diary from his servo and he grabbed it back, turning it into a tug-o-war. "That is not yours to read!"
"Fine." He let go when she was pulling against him, she stumbled back and hit her closet door. She looked at the book in her hand and clutched it closer to her chest.
"How dare you go through such private stuff, I know you're bored, but that's no excuse!" Her mind was full of anger at him until she realized one thing. "Did you go through my underwear droor!?"
"No." He shot back at her. "Whatever those are." He added quietly but she had caught it.
"Their what a person wears under their normal clothes." She looked to her dresser and saw that one droor was open. "You did go through my droor, you are sick and twisted!"
"If I would have know what they were intended for, I would have never of touched them." His face was showing disgust and so was AnnaBeths. After a stare-down they heard the sound of feet walking up the stairs and to her door.
"Ann, are you ok? I heard a crash and-"
"I'm fine uncle, just tripped over a shoe." She said glaring at Megatron angered that she had to save his sorry aft again just to keep her sanity.
"Alright, just making sure. Dinner's almost ready so come down when you want." He walked away and AnnaBeth let out and angered sigh. She got up from the floor and kept her hand tightly secured on the diary.
"Why don't you make yourself useful and see what's for dinner."
"I don't take orders from you." She sarcastically face palmed and 'oohed'
"Right how could I forget, your rules that no one in their right mind would follow."
"Watch it human, I am much stronger and smarter than you." He pointed a sharp finger at it and shifted her weight to one foot.
"Even I'm not that stupid, if you wanted me gone, I'd already be dead. I know you're up to something, I just haven't to figured it out yet." He took away the digit and straightened up so that he was much higher than her, no doubt that he was trying to intimidate her. From his silence she knew she had said something that he couldn't fight against, at least it proved her theory that he was up to something. AnnaBeth headed downstairs with her diary and grabbed dinner, when she was finished she got herself ready for bed. With her diary tucked in her pillow AnnaBeth closed her eyes and let out a tired sigh.
After an hour of laying in bed silently AnnaBeth opened one eye and looked to see that Megatron was in his sleep, or recharge, whatever he called it. She slipped off of her pajamas to reveal her normal clothing, she then grabbed her black hoodie and snuck out of her room and to the beach. AnnaBeth took out and unfolded the paper about the beach fights, it was near RazorSting Cove. It took her half an hour but she found the blazing fire that marked the fights, as she got closer she could hear fighting going on. Her heart pumped faster the closer she got and when she finally showed up her heart stopped with excitement. There on the ground was a boy from her class and Butch duking it out on the hard sand. The boy had many scratches and bruised around his body while Butch had only a few minor scraped and bruises. Her enemy harshly punched the other boy and knocked him out. Kids cheered and pumped their fists.
"Who want's to challenge me!?" He yelled over the cheering, the kids went silent and no one stepped up.
"I will." Before AnnaBeth knew what she was doing she stepped forward and slipped off her hoodie.
"Ha! A girl? Do you have a death wish?" She cracked her knuckles and smirked.
"Maybe." The kids moved apart so she could step to the middle, many of them gave her weary glares as she walked past them. Holly walked in front of her to block her path.
"You don't understand, he's sent seniors to the hospital, even a footballer." Her voice was full of worry.
"Don't worry Holly, I've got this." She pushed past her her friend and starred at Butch. He cracked his neck and fingers before getting into a fighting stance. She moved into a weak stance and took in a deep breath before lunging for him, her first mistake. He moved out of the way and let her trip over herself, before landing a blow to her back. She got back up and watched as he landed another fist to her abdomen. She stood up and punched his face, he only laughed and cracked it. She let rage fill her eyes, she wasn't going to leave until he was on the ground to weak to fight back.
Megatron let his optics online, he had, had enough rest for the time being. It was something he dreaded about his ghostly state, and the faster he left the better. He was actually pretty sure he was going to leave soon, she was an angry girl, had a lot of hate built up, but she didn't seem as if she was going to kill anyone. He scanned the room and saw that she was still in her bed. At least she wasn't able to get into any trouble in her state. He wandered around the house, it was like this most nights. Get about an hour of rest and then the rest of the night was spent roaming around the area, cursing at the predicament he was in. Everything was the same as the past few nights, and to tell the truth he was getting bored, he felt like his sanity was leaving him at times. It was the same routine everyday, go to her school, come back, punish her for anything that she had done wrong, and since he couldn't hurt her in any way, he was force to just lock her up somewhere dark and dreary, one day he had even tied her up in the closet for a couple hours. He really had enjoyed the silence.
Upon arriving back at the house he saw that she was in the same sleeping position as when he had left. He had watcher her some nights and saw her to be very moveable in the bed. That's when he felt a slight breeze coming from her window, he looked and saw that it was wide open. He ripped her sheets off and saw that it had been a pillow decoy. Growling he went through the window and looked around. She was no where to be seem, that's when he remembered the beach fights her so called friend had told her about. When he read over the paper, he had seen that the fights were hosted at a place called RazorSting Cove, wherever the heck that was. He listened and could hear a bit of yelling and cheering coming from left, the towering mech traveled down the sandy beach in hopes to catch the human before she got herself killed.
AnnaBeth was battered and bruised by now, but she wouldn't give up until Butch was lying on the ground. She had delivered her own hits, giving him more injuries than he had started out with.
"Give up, you know you can't win." His words only fueled her anger that she felt against him.
"I won't give up, not until you lose."
"Ha! Me lose, I am the king of the beach fights!" He pumped his fists gaining cheers from the crowd of misfit teens.
"These kids only cheer for you because they're scared of you." She stated over confidently.
"Oh, I know that, but that's the way I like it Orphan." She growled and landed a blow into his stomach and he stumbled back. "You know." he spit out some blood. "You are actually turning out to be a worthy opponent, better than some of the guys I've beat. But that'll fade, because soon enough your weakness will show through and I'll win." She lept towards him but was stopped in mid air by some what some would call an invisible force, but to her it was an annoying mech who wouldn't leave her alone. Megatron pulled her away from the scene and the teens all looked at her weirdly blaming it on tiredness or their drinks.
When they were a ways away from the fight Megatron threw AnnaBeth onto the harsh sand and took in a deep angered breath, mainly to cool himself from the running he had done. Her face held full out rage, but there was a hint of fear embedded into it.
"If I had a choice you would be put to death as of this second!" He yelled at her and she cringed at her. "I told you to not go to that Beach Fight, and you deliberately disobey me!" He was now taking in constant deep and heavy breaths. "I should punish you harder than I ever had, You should have to pay dearly!" Tears pricked her eyes and she moved back afraid of what he was going to do. "But seeing that I have no choice, I can only punish you to an extent." She cocked her head at his statement, what did he mean by no choice. "I believe a few hours tied up in the dark upside down would make you think about your actions." She was used to the darkness, but hanging upside down would be her last choice. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her up, "Move it human."
"My name is AnnaBeth!" She shot back regaining her composure and taking her wrist back. "And what I do is my choice."
"No it isn't!"
"You don't control me, I control myself!"
"You wanna bet." He grabbed her by the waist and threw her over his shoulder, she fought back with all her strength but lost. By the time they got back to the house she was tired and ready for bed. Megatron took the rope and hung her upside down in her closet.
"This is chi-" He slapped her mouth with duct tape and then roped her hands to her sides so she couldn't remove it. Megatron then set up her bed so it looked like she was sleeping in it. Checking the time he noticed it was 3 a.m. AnnaBeth would try to bang against her closet door but would just barely miss it. Her head was beginning to feel light but heavy at the same time and she knew that wasn't a good sign. Through the slight crack in the door she could see that the sun was coming up, her uncle opened the door and then re-closed it, she figured that Megatron had set her decoy back up. Looking around she could see that the brute wasn't there, and she worried that he wouldn't come back. But her worried were washed away when he opened the closet door up and untied her arms, she ripped off the tape and cringed at the slight pain. She tried to speak but found that she felt to lightheaded to. He then untied her feet and she dropped to the ground with a thud. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her to her bed, when she hit her soft pillow she fell right to sleep without any word thought or sound.
Sorry it's so late on coming out, I was kind of lost on what to write. I want to say sorry for any mistakes that were in there, first it's late, and second my computer freaked out on me making me have to paste it again from my Word and to tell the truth I am just to lazy to reread it again.
