A/N: Only two reviews? C'mon people! I already have a plot forming in my head for this story and I would like more reviews before I continue this story. I also added a best friend I know outside fanfiction and I wanted to use her for this fic. I bet she wouldn't mind one bit even though she's going to be a bitch. I'm quite surprised that you guys actually like Blurr with Aubrey a lot more than Hotshot. Hotshot is just a little messed up right now, but I promise he'll be a lot better in future chapters! And perhaps come to his senses…


It's My Life


Chapter Seven: Cut Your Discomfort Wings Pt .II

"Sir, the Autobots are here!" Starscream explained. The red and white seeker narrowed his optics, as the Autobots got closer. Starscream was about to fire one of her canons when Megatron gave him a cold glare.

"Calm yourself Starscream," Megatron said coldly. "What is your decision Brittany?"

Brittany chewed her now metallic lip, confused at the situation that she was in. She had just woken up and she was still in shock that she was now a robot and now these goons wanted her to join up with them, for what cause? She didn't know. Her optics caught sight of the other activity that were coming into the area and the one known as Starscream began to fire.

"Starscream!" Megatron snapped. He growled low in his throat as the Autobots transformed and begun to fire at them. Megatron didn't want a battle with the Autobots and apparently Starscream didn't hear his order. He was trying to coax this femme to join him and his Decepticons. Megatron fired his hip cannon at Prime as he watched in satisfaction as he crouched down, gripping his side as energon leaked out. Since Megatron was distracted with Optimus, Aubrey decided to make talk with Brittany.

"Brittany!"

The black and red femme turned, her golden optics widen in surprise at the silver/light blue femme standing before her. And yet, Brittany knew that voice even though it did have a metallic tone to it.

"Aubrey! What the hell is going on here?"

"I was in the same state you were in Bri, but I really need to talk to you."

Brittany arched a non-existent eyebrow at this. "Where the hell were you when I was kidnapped! I ran away because my parents were being jerks and I was looking for you, but your house was empty. Now I'm a robot! Do you know how much pain I had to suffer to become this thing!?" Brittany was screaming on top of her vocaliser.

"Please calm down Brittany! I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you! I didn't even know what happened since I was nearly killed by Cyclouns and I had to be transformed into a transformer. I absolutely know how you feel about being turned into a giant robot, but I had to endure it for a full month! You only turned into one!"

"What's happening anyways? Who was that guy that just talked to me?"

"There is a war being fought by to fractions of robots known as the Autobots and Decepticons. The one who talked to you is known as Megatron and he wants to take over the universe and destroy mankind while Optimus Prime is the leader of the Autobots and wants to protect mankind and others besides this planet!"

Brittany smirked. "After what those fucking scientist did to me, I'm not forgiving any mankind! And I don't want to be a goody Autobot and save the humanity of this planet. You even agreed that you hated society! I was the one that helped you through high school because everyone picked on you, but you know what? I could care less about anything…"

Aubrey felt her spark tighten against her chest, her crimson optics widen. How could her best friend be telling her this? They had been friends throughout high school and for the fact that Aubrey was a lot shyer and reserved while Brittany was the opposite of her.

"…But you always hated those people in high school!"

A smirk crossed Brittany's face as she walked over to her so-called friend and whispered low into her audio receptor. "Maybe I was like those people in school that you hated so much."

Aubrey gasped and for the fact that she had not expected her to say such a thing. She had crossed the line as Aubrey pounced on her while everybody else was fighting around them. Aubrey winced as she felt a stinging sensation cross her shoulder and than felt someone pulled her away from the fight.

"Let me go! Let me go!" Aubrey shouted.

"I'm sorry Aubrey."

Aubrey gasped as she heard Hotshot's voice. One of his arms was around her waist and the other hand holding both her hands behind her back. Brittany smirked as she dusted herself off. Aubrey continued to struggle against Hotshot as the Decepticons retreated, along with Brittany. Hotshot released the silver/light blue femme as she struggled to regain her balance. It felt as if her spark has been ripped in two and for the fact that her best friend had betrayed her and she would have to fight her in the future and she didn't know if she could take that.

Once the Decepticons retreated, the Autobots had return to base. Everyone was worried since Sideways had gotten his hands on the new Minicon. In other words, the Autobots were getting loosing. Aubrey hadn't said a word since they returned to base. Since her shoulder was injured she went to Red-Alert. Red-Alert noticed the leaking fluids coming from the femme's shoulder as he mentioned her to sit on the cold metal table.

She sat on the metal table, her legs swinging back and forth as Red-Alert patched things up on her shoulder. It seemed wherever she went in the base that it was filled with tension and not just her and Hotshot. Everyone went on their normal business around the base and she was always at the target room either with Blurr or Sideswipe, or by herself.

The one thing that bothered her the most was her name. Everyone else had a name and it seemed foreign to her. Like: Aubrey and Jetfire. She wanted to change her name, but didn't know how and she didn't want to use a name that was already taken.

"Red-Alert?"

Aubrey had walked into the medical bay with a worried look on her face and Red-Alert noticed this.

"What's the matter?"

"You know how you guys have names? Well, I was wondering if I could change mine."

"It would be for the best. Do you have a name in mind?"

A smile tugged at the corner of her lips. "How would Solicits work?"

Red-Alert nodded, "That's a good name. I'll put it in my computer. Why don't you tell everyone else?"

Aubrey, now known as Solicits nodded her head as she left the medical bay. At least she wouldn't have to worry about her name anymore. She walked down the hallway as she accidentally bumped into Hotshot. The first thing she noticed that his face was expressionless and he was frowning most of the time. He barely knowledge her anymore and it was starting to get on Solicits nerves.

"Hey Hotshot."

Hotshot looked at her and she noticed that his optics had once been a light blue in color were now a hard blue. Was he angry with her? What did she do to make him angry? She wanted to find out but wanted to obey Prime's order.

"I just want to thank you for pulling me away from Brittany. If you hadn't, I would have surely killed her."

Hotshot didn't say anything as he stared at her. His body wasn't function right and he had to lean up against the wall for support. Solicits noticed this and wanted to help him, but Hotshot would slap her hand away. Why was it every time she came near that he had to act like this? He didn't want any of that. He wanted to tell her how he felt about her, but his tongue or glossa wouldn't work right and he always said words that would hurt her. He never meant for any of this to happen and for the fact that he acted so stubbornly.

The mech looked at her at the corner of his optics to notice her fidget with her fingers. She bit her lip, which was becoming a habit to her. Maybe he should stop acting like a jerk and just let his feelings out, but he didn't way to jeopardize their friendship.

"Aubrey?" Hotshot's voice squeaked.

She looked up, as her optics dimmed. "My name is now Solicits now Hotshot."

He titled his head and smiled a bit. Solicits was grinning since she hadn't seen him smile since she had been turned into a Transformer. She didn't know that Hotshot had liked her from the very beginning and for the fact that she had never actually been in love before. She could never keep a relationship for more over than a month and the guys she dated were jerks.

"Solicits eh?"

The silver/light blue femme nodded her head. They were the only two in the hallway and the kids would be at the base shortly. The silence began to bother Solicits more than anything and she wished that Hotshot would talk to her or do something than this uncomfortable silence.

"I'm sorry"

Solicits optics widen and was surprised of Hotshot's apology. He walked up to her, taking her hands into his. His optics was a soft blue this time and she smiled, knowing that his temper had died down and the femme was glad for that. It had been awhile since Hotshot had acted nice towards her and she wondered what could have caused his sudden change of mood. His hands felt warm against her small hands. Could Transformers blush? She didn't know, but she did feel her cheeks heat up when Hotshot looked dead straight in the optics.

"There is something I wanted to tell you that I should have told you long ago Solicits."

"What would that be?"

Hotshot felt his knees would buckle and for the fact that he could barely get the words out of his mouth. He didn't understand how he could be so tongue-tied, and for the fact that he hated the way he acted towards her. He drew the ex-human into a huge as Solicits rested her head on his shoulder as Hotshot wrapped his arms around her tiny waist.

"I'm in love with you Solicits, I've always have been when we first meet and I got jealous thinking you had a thing for Scavenger. I don't know what I would happen if anything happened to you Sol—you complete me."

"I complete you?" Solicits replied.

"Yes. I understand if you don't feel the same way."

Never in her life had Solicits been in love. The guys at school were jerks and only cared about the girl's looks instead of how they feel. Even when she was human and had the body that most of the girls wanted and the guys would often take advantage of her. She was glad that she was a transformer now and that someone actually cared about her. Here was Hotshot, telling her how much he loved her and she didn't even know what to say.

"I want to tell you something Hotshot."

"Hmmm?"

"I don't have a thing for Scavenger. He's more of my mentor to help me train so I can kick ass against the Decepticons. Are you sure that you feel that way about me Hotshot? And for the fact that you're not using me?"

Hotshot was surprised of his ex-human friend saying that. "No. I would never use you Solicits, why do you ask such a thing?"

Solicits let out a sigh. "I've been used before and I don't want to experience that again. It hurts."

Hotshot felt anger build up inside of him. Who would have wanted to hurt Sol? She was a good friend and she didn't deserve such treatment, which meant that he felt really bad for the way he acted towards her.

"They're jerks whoever hurt you Sol. They don't deserve your love."

Solicits smiled as she snuggled into Hotshot's embrace. He was warm and it had been awhile since she had any contact with men that usually hugged her. She had forgiven Hotshot long ago and that she knew he didn't mean the way he acted. He was just jealous for the fact that he couldn't tell her right off the bat.

"I love you Solicits," Hotshot murmured.

"I love you to Hotshot."

Hotshot leaned down and captured his lips with Solicits.

Hiding from behind the corner Sideswipe smiled to himself. Well it's about damned time he thought.


Decepticon, moon base location

The black and red femme kneeled on the cold metal ground before Megatron. He smirked.

"Do you swear you alliance with me, Brittany?"

"Yes of course."

"Do you swear that you will follow my every command and not disappoint me?"

"Yes my lord."

Megatron's smirk grew. "You may rise now."

Brittany did what she was told as Megatron stood and walked away from his thrown as he placed his rather large hand on the femme's shoulder. She hissed in pain at the burning sensation when Megatron took his hand away she noticed the Decepticon insignia. A smile grew on her face.

"You're a part of the Decepticons and your name is Stormhawk. Starscream, I want you to show Stormhawk to her quarters."

Starscream came forward as Megatron sat back on the thrown as he watched the two bot's leave the command center. Cyclouns, Demolisher, Wheeljack, Sideways and Thrust had watched the whole ideal.

"Look Megatron, the stars are falling from the heavens. A victory will be among us," Thrust explained.

"You better be right Thrust," Megatron said.

And those damn Autobots will pay Sideways continued in his head, a smile played across his lips under his facemask. And Lord Unicron will be victorious!


DietyofDeath17: I'm quite pleased how this chapter came out. At least Hotshot admitted his feelings towards Aubrey or should I say Solicits, huh?
