Chapter 7: Something's Wrong/Shocking Discovery Made
Two Months Later
These past two months had been really strange and hell for Megan Banes. At least one week after having so-called sex with Optimus, Megan had felt like crap. Every morning she had thrown up, the sight of certain foods and drinks like chicken, chocolate, milk, chips, orange juice all made her throw up. And some things she craved; strawberry ice cream covered in peanut butter, raw pickled onions, apple juice and Green Tea.
The thing that had her most worried was the fact that she didn't get her period over the last two months and the fact that Mikaela, Sam, Ratchet, Ironhide, Bumblebee and Optimus had all noticed the changes in her.
Megan sighed one day in the second month as she sat on a swing in the park
"Honey, maybe you should go to the doctor" Mikaela suggested and Sam nodded his head in agreement
"Mikaela's right you've changed these last two months and what's worse is the fact that you're eating about six helpings of every meal" he told her (you heard Sam correct, Megan would eat six helpings of everything she ate)
"But I feel fine, the morning sickness has stopped" Megan argued "come on let's go for a drive" she added getting up and heading for the vehicles.
The three reached the vehicles
"Oh my, I don't know how I didn't pick up on this before" Ratchet said suddenly
"Not notice what?" Ironhide asked him
"The youngest member of the Banes family, she's with child" he replied.
Everyone looked at Megan in shock, Mikaela and Sam's jaws had fallen open
"That's not possible, Ratchet" Megan told him
"He's a medic mech, he's never wrong" Bumblebee told her
"The only way she get can pregnant is if she's had sex and she's a virgin" Mikaela said
"I was able to detect that Sam wanted to mate with you those three years ago when we met and now I have detected that your cousin is carrying a child developing inside of her" Ratchet explained.
Suddenly Megan felt light-headed and swayed
"Mikaela, I don't feel so good" she cried when suddenly she collapsed but not before Sam caught her.
Sam picked her up under the legs and carried her to a bench as Mikaela followed him, Sam lay Megan on the bench placing her head in Mikaela's lap
"Who do you think she had sex with?" Mikaela asked her boyfriend
"It can't have been Jason because he had tried to rape her and she said he never even released into her" Sam replied sitting on the ground and taking Megan's hand
"So if she never had sex, how is possible for her to be pregnant?" Mikaela asked
"It's not. But Ratchet's never wrong, he knows these things and I don't think he'd lie about this one" Sam replied
"But how come he never detected it before?" Mikaela asked
"Don't know, like he said he only just detected it now" Sam replied as he looked watched Megan "maybe we should book an appointment for her with your GP" he added
"Yeah we should" Mikaela agreed but that's when it hit her
"Her being pregnant would explain everything; the morning sickness, the sight of certain foods and drinks like chicken, chocolate, milk, chips, orange juice that make her throw up. And the strange cravings; strawberry ice cream covered in peanut butter, raw pickled onions, apple juice and Green Tea. Also the fact that she's late on her periods" Mikaela explained.
They both fell silent, Mikaela stroking her cousin's hair humming and Sam holding her hand. Sam checked Megan's pulse about five minutes later and frowned
"Mikaela, check her neck for a pulse" he said
"Why?" she asked him
"I've lost her wrist pulse" he replied.
Mikaela checked the pulse on her cousin's neck and gasped
"Sam, there's no pulse" she cried looking back at him
"She's not breathing either" Sam said, he slapped Megan's face lightly a couple of times but she didn't respond
"We have to get her to Ratchet" Mikaela said.
Sam stood up and scooped Megan into his arms and rushed to the vehicles Mikaela by his side, once they reached them Sam hurried round to the back of Ratchet
"What's wrong?" Bumblebee asked
"She's not breathing" Mikaela replied.
Ratchet opened his doors immediately at hearing what Mikaela had said and Sam got up into the back, he lay Megan on the bed before he began performing CPR. Mikaela hurried around and climbed into the back and knelt beside the bed as Sam desperately performed CPR.
Unfortunately, Megan wasn't responding. Sam stopped and pulled back
"We're going to have to shock her back to life" he said, Mikaela reached for the paddles and handed them to Sam.
She turned on the machine and turned it up to 150
"Charging" Sam said rubbing the paddles together
"Clear" Ratchet called and Sam put the paddles above Megan's breasts and shocked her. But she didn't budge
"250" Mikaela said
"Charging" Sam said rubbing the paddles together again
"Clear" Ratchet called and Sam shocked Megan again
"Nothing" he said
"350" Mikaela said
"Charging" Sam said for the third time rubbing the paddles together
"Clear" Ratchet called and Sam shocked Megan again.
This time, however, Megan's eyes flew open as she gasped and coughed
"She's alive" Sam called out handing the paddles to Mikaela who turned the machine off and put the paddles away.
Mikaela pulled out her bottle of water she had with her and handed it to Sam, who took the water, unscrewed the top and handed it to Megan who he had helped sit up. Megan took the water and took large gulps
"Ratchet, how's the baby?" Mikaela asked
"I can't check unless I change" he replied
"Alright let's get to the scrap yard and you can change there" Sam instructed, Ratchet's doors closed as Sam climbed through the front to sit in the front passenger seat while Mikaela sat down in the seat next to her cousin, they buckled in and Ratchet drove, Bumblebee leading the way.
