Disclaimer: Hey guys! It's me with another awesome chapter of Fire Emblem! This particular chapter will be in Terra's point of view since we are finally getting in to the Prime series. Also, I want to know something. Do you guys want me to continue in Terra's P.O.V. or third person P.O.V? Tell me because I honestly don't have a problem doing either one. :D
Terra: Shadow Katakura doesn't own anything to do with Transformers Prime. She only owns me and any other OCs that will be used.
I sighed as I flew over the desert, the fire coming out my feet the only thing keeping me airborn. After two years, I'm finally sixteen and I've become a prodigy with my powers. I looked down as I heard a car swerving and saw a red Dodge Challenger speeding off the road. I raised an eyebrow. Don't tell me I'm staring at a drunk driver?
"Well at least I found something to do." I shrugged as I flew after the guy.
When I finally made it to the guy I was not expecting what I saw. The freaking car transformed in to a robot.
"Decepticons." The guy said.
Decepticons? Oh gosh, what did I get myself in to? I looked up as a huge shadow came over me. My jaw dropped as a huge warship appeared and about a dozen purple robots jumped out. I didn't know whether I should help the red one or get the heck out of here.
"Arcee, about that backup..." The red guy trailed off nervously.
I sighed and flew down to the ground before hiding so they wouldn't see me.
"Fair warning boys. I'll put a few dings in ya." Red guy said before transforming in to that Dodge Challenger and using the side of the ditch as a ramp.
I watched as the red one punched and kicked the purple ones before he started losing. I winced as one of the horns on his head was ripped off when he was thrown in to the ditch again.
"You want the horns? You got 'em." The red one hissed before pulling out blasters and he started shooting.
I resisted from yelling out when that blue stuff ignited and engulfed him in the explosion. I sighed in relief when I saw he was alive though he was getting captured. I backed away with wide eyes before running and opening a portal made completely of fire and jumping through. As if my life wasn't weird enough already!
I hummed to myself as I sat outside K.O. Burger watching Jack work. His life hasn't got any better than it was when I first met him. If only there were some better jobs in Jasper.
"Welcome to K.O. Drive in where every patties a knockout. Can I take your order?" Jack recited in a monotone voice causing me to chuckle slightly and then shut up when he glared at me.
"Uh two super combos. Extra fries."
"Okay deus numero deus. Anything else?" Jack asked.
"Yeah some advice. How do I get an awesome job like yours?"
I smirked as Jack growled, "So that's two not as funny as we think we are combos with a side of bite me?"
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!"
Ok now I did burst out laughing at that. Even as Jack stared at me amused I was still howling with laughter. After I finally calmed down, I noticed Jack didn't have the money and the car was gone.
"Alright Jack, you're going to have to do better. I can't keep giving you money." I laughed as I walked up to the outside window and leaned on it.
"You don't have to Terra." Jack smiled before he frowned. "Wait, where do you get all the money?"
"I took a visit back to Tranquility yesterday and got back all the money I had saved up before, ya know..." I trailed off.
Jack nodded. "How about you go sit down and I'll bring us something to eat after I get off?"
I smiled. "I'll be waiting Jackie."
"Don't call me that." Jack grumbled as I walked off to sit down.
I chuckled but I shut up quick when I noticed an awesome blue motorcycle.
"Holy crap..." I trailed off as I ran my hands along the seat.
I gasped when I felt a familiar shock run through my body and I heard a heartbeat. I gasped and backed up as I stared at the motorcycle. I must be sick or something because I'm pretty sure motorcycles aren't supposed to be living things.
"Terra?"
I turned around to see Jack staring at me concerned. I smiled and said, "Yeah Jack?"
"You okay? You looked like you just saw a ghost. Though with you, I can't be too sure." Jack raised an eyebrow.
"I'm fine Jack." I said. At his disbelieving look I said, "Really Jack I'm fine."
"If you say so." Jack shrugged before his phone started ringing.
"Really that geeky ringtone?" I teased.
"It's better than Chris Brown." Jack smirked.
"Well played my friend. Well played." I growled playfully as Jack finally answered his phone.
"Hey Mom, I just got off. No, I'm not going to the dance. Experience suggest I should never cut a rug, unless I'm installing carpet. Besides I was planning on hanging out with Terra. Seriously? Be careful? This is Jasper." Jack scoffed before he laid eyes on the motorcycle. "I love you."
"Uh Jack? You're mom is still on the phone." I hissed.
"Oh yeah! I love you to Mom. I gotta run." Jack said in a hurry before hanging up the phone and walking towards the motorcycle. "Hello beautiful. Where have you been all my life?"
"Jack, are you falling for the bike?" I laughed.
Jack turned to glare at me playfully before saying, "It might take a few K.O. paychecks but I am gonna own a ride like you someday."
"Are you talking to your motorcycle?"
I glared at Sierra and her friend as they started laughing at Jack. Boy if I didn't want my powers to be a secret I swear I would've snapped by now. We never were on good terms.
"Oh hey Terra I didn't see you there." Sierra said.
"Hey." I glared at her. She glared right back.
Jack decided to cut in before anything could start. "My motorcycle? No, I mean...yes yes it's mine, but no I'm not talking...well to you I am." He face palmed in embarrasment. "How's things Sierra? Take you for a spin sometime?"
"You know my name?" Sierra asked in surprise.
"You're in homeroom together." I rolled my eyes.
"I'm Jack. Jack Darby." Jack tried to make her remember.
Suddenly two bright lights started shining on us, forcing us to block our eyes. I made my eyes glow a bit and I saw it was two purple cars. Wait, purple cars? Oh no...
"Hey!" Jack screamed as the bike suddenly roared to life.
I quickly hopped on before the bike suddenly rode towards the cars. Jack and I glanced at each other before screaming bloody murder. As we made it past the cars, I held on tightly to Jack while asking, "Jack, please tell me you're the one driving."
"If I was do you think I would be screaming?" Jack retorted.
"Do not let go." The bike advised.
"Who said that?!" Jack and I screamed.
As the two cars tried to smash us, the bike reared back and drove in to a nearby alley. As soon as it stopped, Jack and I were off in a heartbeat.
"What are you?" Jack asked as he and I held on to each other. I normally wouldn't admit this but I am scared out my freaking mind!
"I don't exist. Tell anyone about me and I will hunt both of you down." The bike said.
Jack and I both nodded before running down the alley.
"What did we just see?" I gulped.
"I don't know and I have no intention of going back." Jack said.
I hear an engine behind us and I turn around to see the purple car coming towards us. "JACK!"
Jack turned around and his eyes widened before he grabbed my hand and we ran faster.
"We don't even know her!" Jack yelled.
"Leave us alone!" I growled, resisting the urge to throw a fireball at the creeps.
We hear an engine beside us and turn to look at the motorcycle who yelled, "Hop in!"
"Don't have to tell us twice." I said as Jack and I hopped on.
"WOAH!" We screamed as we rounded a corner.
"Oh no, no, no! Not the freeway!" I shrieked.
"Why are those guys shooting at us?" Jack asked.
"There's no us kid, and there no guys." The bike answered.
"What's your name?" I asked.
"Call me Arcee." She said.
"Arcee." I repeated. "That's a nice name."
"Are you two actually having a comversation?" Jack asked in disbelief.
"No." was the answer he got from both of us.
I turn around and gasp. That's the Camero I saw four years ago! The same one I saw when I first came to Jasper. I'm going to guess the Camero is a dude. He held off the purple cars who I'm going to guess are Decepticons based on what that red 'Bot said earlier.
"Friend of yours?" Jack asked.
"Family." Arcee responded.
We rode on for a bit more and I noticed Jack was starting to relax. That was until we came to a roadblock.
"Oh no! Don't you dare!" I yelled.
Arcee merely chuckled. If I wasn't scared for my life, I would have smirked at her. Jack and I screamed as Arcee jumped over the bridge and landed gracefully on her back wheel. We then jumped again and landed on the ground in front of Raf Esquivel. We had a class or two together in school and we had become fast friends.
"Woah." Raf gasped.
Jack was panting like crazy as he said, "You have no idea."
I threw myself off Arcee and landed on the ground while saying, "Oh sweet ground how I've missed you!"
"Terra?" Raf asked.
I stood up with a sigh and said, "Hey Raf." Raf doesn't know about my powers so I kept my sunglasses over my eyes.
When I hear an engine roar, I looked up to see the two purple cars jump off the ledge and transform in to the purple robots I saw earlier. Ok, so purple bad, Arcee good. Yeah let's go with that. I heard metal shifting behind me and swerved around to see Arcee had transformed. Holy crap...
"Come on Terra, let's move out the way." Jack hissed as he pulled me and Raf over to the side to watch the fight.
"This ends here 'Cons." Arcee said as she charged at the 'Cons' as she called them. So I was right. Those purple ones were called Decepticons.
We all watched as Arcee beat the 'Cons. And badly. She could really fight. Even I'm not as good as here and I'm the one with powers!
"What are they?" Raf asked.
"Talking cars that turn in to robots." Jack shrugged.
"Or the other way around." I added.
I watched as Arcee punched the 'Con while muttering, "This is for Cliff!"
Cliff? That has to be the red 'Bot who was captured. He must have been killed. I frowned slightly as I remembered when I was captured by Silas. I knew the desire for revenge all to well and even know, after four years of not seeing MECH, I still want revenge.
"Terra, come on!"
"Huh?" I asked as Jack grabbed my hand and headed towards a water pipe. "What's going on?"
"While you were zoning out in La-La Land, those purple robots nearly shot us to bits so now we have to leave!" Jack exclaimed.
"I missed all that?" I asked.
"Yep. I was wondering why you were so quiet." Jack said. "Now move, move, move!"
I helped Raf up in the pipe before jumping in and running after them to escape the huge hand coming towards us. Suddenly we heard a crash and turned around to see the Camero 'Bot pull the purple one back and then we saw his face.
"You need to get away from here fast." Camero dude said. Wait, I could understand him?
"Thank you." Raf said. Okay so I wasn't the only one that could understand him.
"Your welcome." Camero dude said before going away.
"Don't look back." I said.
"What did we just see?" Raf asked.
"No idea and I'm not sure I wanna find out." Jack said as we started walking through the pipe.
"Join the club Jack." I grumbled.
I sighed as I pulled on a red tank top and some white basketbakk shorts before collasping on my bed. I wondered if those robots would come back for us. We did see them after all. I didn't think about it as I drifted out to sleep.
*Dream*
"Terra! Terra!"
"Leave me alone!" I screamed as I ran away from Silas.
Suddenly he was in front of me smirking. "You can't run from me Terra. Stop trying."
"Get away from me!" I screamed.
"You ran away from me so it's only fair I come back for you." Silas smirked as he reached a hand out towards me.
"NO!"
*Dream End*
"NO!" I yelled as I sat up bolt straight. I looked around me and sighed. "Just a dream, just a dream."
I got out my bed before pulling on my orange converse and rubbed my eyes. I'm definately not getting back to sleep tonight. I jumped out my window before rolling on the ground to break my fall. I then walked down the street until I can to K.O. Burger.
"Wasn't expecting to see you here."
I swerved around to see Arcee sitting in her vehicle form. "Oh, it's you."
"Why are you out so late at night?" Arcee asked.
"Couldn't sleep. You?" I asked.
"Same." Arcee said.
"Staying transformed like that can't be confortable." I raised an eyebrow.
"That's cause it isn't. It's not like I can transform in town." Arcee said.
"I know a place you can transform. It's out in the desert." I said while thinking, "Idiot what are you doing? You can't take her to your training place!"
"If you say so." Arcee said. "Hop on."
I nodded before climbing on top of her as she started driving towards the desert. I looked around before saying, "Turn right. There's a cavern there."
Arcee did just that and soon enough we were back in the same place where I used to train. I looked at all the scorch marks and shook my head. I heard metal shifting and turned around as Arcee transformed.
"How'd you find this place?" Arcee asked.
"I was just walking in the desert one day when I stumbled upon it." I lied.
"You were walking in the desert? How come I don't believe you?" Arcee raised an eyebrow, optic ridge, whatever they call it.
"You don't have to." I shrugged as I leaned against a rock.
"You're certainly pretty calm about this. It's not every day you meet a giant robot." Arcee commented.
"Trust me when I say weird things aren't exactly new to me." I said. I hesitated for a second before saying, "Hey Arcee, who was that Cliff person you were talking about?"
Arcee's eyes narrowed for a second before she said, "He was my partner and the Decepticons, the guys who tried to knock us off, killed him."
"So that was Cliffjumper." I thought before I said, "I'm sorry for your loss."
"What could you possibly know about loss?" Arcee asked bitterly.
That made me snap as I stood up with a growl and walked towards her. I didn't even know what I was saying.
"I know more about loss than you ever could. I was captured, tortured, and experimented on! My own two parents were killed right before my eyes and the guy who did it was so casual it was pathetic! I was forced to flee from my own town! So if you think I don't know about loss you are sadly mistaken!" I screamed as my whole body started glowing orange and my hands were engulfed in flames.
Arcee merely stared at me in shock and then when I calmed down a bit I realized why.
"I'm glowing aren't I?" I whispered.
A nod.
"I'm on fire right now?" I asked.
Another nod.
I sighed before I calmed down enough to stop glowing and said, "I'm sorry for snapping on you. I just do that when anybody thinks I don't know about loss when I was experimented on. Now I can control fire."
"Terra, I'm sorry. I didn't know." Arcee apologized, a bit awkwardly too. Guess she was the one with the huge temper on her team. Kind of figures too.
"No, it's alright." I said before looking at her with all seriousness. "Arcee, you cannot tell anyone about this. I worked to hard to keep this a secret to have it flying out the window. If Jack can keep my secret, I'm sure you can."
"And I will." Arcee smiled. "You know, you're not so bad."
"Same goes to you." I smiled.
Wow, did I actually just make friends with a giant robot?
Jack and I walked out of school together with me back in my usual outfit and sunglasses. We saw Raf waving at us from under a tree and we glanced at each other before walking towards him.
"Raf, hey." Jack greeted. "Look let's just keep this between us and forget anything ever happened?"
We heard a horn beep and turned to see that all familiar Camero driving towards us.
"Jack." Raf breathed.
"Oh not again." Jack groaned as he stepped back.
"Can you two get in? The older one already has a ride." Camero guy said.
"It wants us to get in." Jack said.
"No just me and Raf." I said.
"How do you know that?" Jack asked in disbelief.
"It said so." Raf said as if it were the simplest thing in the world.
"What?" Jack demanded.
"Yours is over there." I said, pointing to Arcee who was innocently parked in the parkling lot.
"Look, I really don't think that," Jack was cut off.
"How's it going?" Raf asked as he and I got in the Camero with me in the passenger seat and Raf in the back seat.
"Raf? Terra?" Jack asked as he turned around.
"Petal to the metal dude." I hissed.
"Wait! Stop!" Jack yelled as we drived away.
"You think he'll be mad when we see him again?" Raf asked.
"Probably so but I've known him since I was fourteen. I can handle him." I shrugged.
"So what are your names?" Camero guy asked.
"I'm Terra and back there is Raf. What's yours because I can't keep calling you Camero guy?" I raised an eyebrow.
"My name's Bumblebee. And Camero guy? Seriously?" Bumblebee asked.
I smiled innocently. "It was the best I could come up with. It's not like I knew you were a giant robot."
"Autobot to be exact." Bumblebee corrected.
I nodded before I heard someone screaming in excitement. I turned around and looked at the back window to see Arcee, Jack, and...MIKO?! How'd she get here?! I sighed before I muttered, "Oh boy."
"Uh Terra?" Raf gulped.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Look in front of you." Raf said.
I looked up and when I did, I screamed, "Dude, are you trying to kill us?! We're heading towards a wall!"
"Now everything is what it seems." Bumblebee said as a hidden entrance appeared.
"Woah." I gasped.
"Terra!" Raf gasped excitedly. "Look out the window."
"Son of a gun." I gasped as I stared out the window as two more Autobots were seen. One was huge and the other looked like a medic.
When Bumblebee stopped, Raf and I got out slowly and then we allowed Bumblebee to transform.
"I thought there were two." The medic one said.
"Haven't you heard? Humans multiply." Arcee said before she walked out.
I snorted at that before I grunted as I was jumped on from behind. I knew exactly who it was to. "Miko, get off me."
I heard Miko laugh before she helped me up and said, "Isn't this awesome?"
"Pretty much." I smirked.
"I'm Raf." Raf introduced himself.
"I'm Miko." Miko did the same before running up to the green one. "Who are you?"
"Bulkhead." He answered.
Miko gasped. "Are you a car? I bet you're a truck, a monster truck! Do you like heavy metal? How much do you weigh? Ever used a wrecking ball or a punching bag?"
"So if you guys are robots who made you?" Raf asked innocently.
"Puh-leez." The medic scoffed.
"Watch it buddy." I growled as I looked up at him.
Before he could respond, the ground started shaking and my breath hitched in my throat as I stared at possibly the tallest being in existence. This must be this Optimus Prime fellow Arcee told me about last night. I couldn't help but let my jaw drop to the ground as I took in his apperance that just screamed leader.
"We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron, also known as Autobots." Optimus stated.
Jack and I stepped foward in unison and asked, "Why are you here?"
"To protect your planet from the Decepticons." Optimus answered.
"The jokers who tried to bump us off last night." Arcee clarified.
"Ok..." I said before looking back at Optimus. "Why are they here?"
"A fair question Terra." Optimus said, making me wonder just how he knew my name. "In part, they are here because our planet is uninhabitable, ravaged by centuries of civil war."
"Why were you fighting a war?" Raf asked.
"Foremost, over our world supply of energon, the fuel and lifeblood of all Autobots and Decepticons alike." Optimus replied. "The combat was fierce and endured for centuries. In the beginning, I fought alongside one who I considered a brother. But in war, ideals can be corrupted. And it was thus that Megatron lost his way."
Miko twirled some of hair around before asking, "Is there gonna be a quiz?"
"Oh yeah there is. One on how to shut up and listen before I slap you." I smirked at her and I saw Optimus stare at me in amusement. I sent a smile his way.
"Shut up Terra." Miko grumbled.
"So what does Megatron, or any of this have to do with us?" Jack asked.
"Megatron has not been seen or heard from in some time. But if his return is eminent, as I fear, it could be catastrophic." Optimus said gravely.
"Uh, could we get some introductions? We don't exactly know you're names yet." Jack said.
"My name is Optimus Prime." Optimus introduced for the three who hadn't figured out who the guy was.
"You already know me." Bulkhead smiled sheepishly.
"My designation is Ratchet." The medic said.
"I'm Bumblebee." 'Bee said.
"His name's Bumblebee." Raf told Miko and Jack who couldn't understand him.
"I'm Arcee." Arcee introduced herself.
I couldn't help but let myself stare at Optimus. He practically screamed three words: leadership, kindness, and courage. He actually reminded me of someone.
Optimus Prime reminded me of my father.
Done! After typing for a whole day, I'm finally done! I don't really have much to say so I'm out everyone :D
