Transformers – a Star is Born
Scene 6 – Something Much Bigger
I was sound asleep from the excitement from yesterday. I was having a dream of going to the Homecoming Dance with Mike. Then all of a sudden, I heard a loud engine roar outside. I immediately woke up and tried to figure out the sound. I realized that the sound was… MY CAR!
Oh no! I just got that car; I can't have it stolen now. I immediately got out of bed and ran out of my bedroom door, down the hall, and went on the balcony of the house just above the garden. "NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!" I yelled as I saw my car start to roll away. "HEY THAT'S MY CAR! STOP!"
I ran downstairs to the garage, still wearing my blue pajamas with vertical blue and light green stripes. I grabbed my cell phone, put a navy sweater, and got my old bike out. "DAD CALL THE COPS! HURRY!" I called to him up in his room as I started to follow the thief with my bike.
I was pedaling as fast as I could. Thank goodness for my athletic ability. I opened my cell phone and call 911 Emergency. "HELLO MY CAR HAS BEEN STOLEN! I'M IN PURSUIT, BRING EVERYONE ON THE FORCE! THERE'S NO NEED FOR ME TO ANSWER QUESTIONS, MY FATHER'S THE HEAD OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH!" I screamed into the phone to the operator.
The car went into the junkyard. Is the thief meeting his gang there or something? I went into the junkyard and left my bike when a train slowly went in front of me. I managed to go between two of the cars, got off my bike, and continued my search. I wanted to waste no time searching for my car. I don't care what my chances of winning are, I'm going to teach that jerk not to steel anything some me. But what I saw next, was not at all what I was looking for, it was something was never would have expected at all.
I heard a strange sound to my right behind a pile of scrap. It sounded like shifting metal moving and scraping around and against each other in an electroctic way. I looked behind the pile and I wouldn't believe my eyes. My car looked like it was breaking itself apart, but it was actually transforming into a seventeen feet tall black and yellow robot. It was so not real.
"Oh my gosh!" I said flabbergasted, it felt so familiar somehow. Then some kind of light came from its chest. The robot aimed it at the sky. I followed the path of the beam of light; it was the same symbol on the steering wheel, and on Mom's necklace. What is that symbol anyway? What was that thing doing anyway?
I ducked down behind the pile as the robot lowered the light. I pulled out my cell phone and left a recording in case I don't make it out of here. "My name is Samantha Witwicky. Who ever find this, my car is alive." I said. Then I took a picture of the robot for evidence. "Here's the proof. I just want to say Mom Dad, I love you, and I'm sorry for just running off after the thief like that, and it turned out that the thief was the car. Mojo I love you." I said as closed the cell phone.
I got up and tried to quietly get away from the giant robot. Then I saw two big dogs, one German Sheppard and one Rottweiler, they must be the guard dogs here. There were large bones near them; that's not a good sign. I tipped on my toes to be as quiet as possible to avoid being chased by them. But they saw me and began to pursue me. I looked back as I started running; the dogs were on chains so that might stop them in their tracks. But the ends of chains attached to the wall broke off.
I ran as fast as could, yelling good dogs. I went into a building, there was a barrel in the middle of the room and I got on top of it to try to get away from the dogs. But it wasn't tall enough, for the dogs were jumping to get a bite out of me. "Bad dogs, bad Canine carnivorous!" I yelled while trying to kick them to get away from me.
Just as one of the dogs was about to bite into my leg, the car or whatever it was barged into the room and chased the dogs away. I don't know what it is, but I want to get away from it as far as possible. "Please don't hurt me! I'm sorry! Take the keys I don't want them! The car's yours!" I yelled as I threw the key to the car and ran out of the room at high speed.
Just as I was about to leave the junkyard, a police car pulled up in front and immediately two policemen came out. "Oh thank goodness! The guy's in there…" I started to say. But the policemen pointed their pistols at me. "Let us see your hands!" they ordered. "No! I'm not the thief, in fact there's no thief at all, but my car's in there driving by itself." I tried to explain. "Be quiet, put your hands on your head, walk towards the car, and put your head on the hood!" one of the policemen ordered. I did what they said, and I put my head on the hood of the car hard. Frustrated on how things turned out.
Meanwhile, in Washington D.C.
The Secretary of defense was hopping mad about the Air Force One situation. He swiped a card key and the door opened. "Whoever did this finally manage to infiltrate the system, which was their original objective in Qatar, only this time it worked." A senior analyst explained. "What did they get?" the secretary asked. "We don't know sir." the analyst said regretfully.
"What about the virus?" the secretary asked as they went into a room full of different computers and people. "It's a spider-bot virus. We are not certain what it will do, but it might damage the system." the analysts explained. "Can it be stop?" the secretary asked. "Every time we try an anti-virus, it adapts and spreads itself. It's like it is not a virus anymore, it has become the system." the analyst explained gravely.
Outside the room, Maggie and another analyst. Then she saw the secretary and decided that she should tell him the important information and explain her theories about what they are facing. She slipped inside the room, and closed the door. The analyst knocked on the glass door, telling her to get back out here. She holds up her pointer finger to say 'just a moment'
"This is obliviously the first phase of a major attempt against the U.S. The only ones of this technology are Russia, North Korea, and possibly China." said one of the men. "I'm sorry that's not correct." Maggie stated, making herself known to the others.
"I'm sorry miss, I didn't see you there, and you would be…?" a man asked. "I'm just the analyst that detected the hack." Maggie answer as another man was pushing her towards the door she just came in through. "Hold on, it was you? You did it?" the Secretary of Defense asked. "Her team." the senior analyst corrected.
"Sir I was just trying to say that they hacked your firewall in ten seconds. Even a supercomputer with a brute force attack would take about twenty years to do that." Maggie explained. "Perhaps you can explain why our satellites imagery shows North Korea doubling its naval activity?" someone said. "Maybe it's a precaution, isn't that what we are doing?" she answered nervously. The man shook his head in disapproval.
"The signal pattern is learning along, it is evolving on its own, and you need to move pass special transfers and start concerning quantum mechanics." She explained further. "There is NOTHING on earth that complex." the senior analyst stated, not believing where she was getting at. "What about an organism? A living organism? Some kind of DNA based computer? I mean, I know that sounds crazy, but…" Maggie continued to explain her theory to everyone else.
"That's enough, that's enough!" the Secretary of Defense said, not believing a single word she is saying either. "We have six floors of analysts working on this. If you can find proof to back up your theory, I would be happy to listen to you. But if you give me anymore of that brain mouth thing, you're off the team. Do you understand?" the Secretary said. Maggie just nodded her head in agreement. The Secretary snapped to order her to get to work and she obeyed and left the room. Little did they know that she was on the right course after all.
The Next Morning, at the Tranquility Police Station
I was pretty scared about this whole thing. I was about to be interrogated for something I didn't do. "Sam are you okay?" my dad asked concerned, still wearing his pajamas with messy hair as he arrived at the station. "Yeah I'm fine dad, but they think I stole my own car." I said. "Okay I don't know what this is about, but my little girl is no criminal! She's a straight A student, she goes to school everyday, she does community service, she's an honest hard worker, she respects both me and her mother, she goes to church every Sunday, except for when we are on vacations, and she doesn't even think about stealing of any kind. Plus, how can she steal her own car?" my dad stated angrily.
"Calm down, old man!" an officer, who had black hair and an unshaved beard and looked like he was in his early thirties said. "Hey! That's my dad you're talking to!" I said, not taking that kind of mouth towards my father. "We just want a few questions answered." Another officer said. "Alright." I said, "But you won't believe me when I tell you." With that I told the story.
They didn't believe me. "I can't be any clearer than I am right now, my car just stood up." I explained again. "Stood up?" said the police officer, "Wow!" he said sarcastically. "Okay doll!" he said, handing me a bag and a container. "Fill it up and don't drip." He's not serious is he?
"What are you rolling on? Whippets? Goof Balls? A little wowie sauce with the girls?" he asked. He is. "I'm not on any drugs of any kind and I never will, but I do think I need to see a psychiatrist instead." I said. At least they blaming it on drugs and not on my own mind.
"Then what are these?" he asked as the other officer tossed him an orange bottle. The officer in front of me shook the bottle in front of my face. "They were in your pocket." he said, "'Mojo' is that the kids are doing today? A little bit of 'Mojo.'" "Those are my dog's pain pills." I said bluntly. "You know a Chihuahua." my dad explained.
The officer then lowered his head to his right hand and chuckled. I can't believe this guy. "What was that?" he asked. "What?" I asked, not knowing what he was talking about. "You were eyeballing my piece fifty cent? Come on; make something happen, do it. Cuz I promise you I will bust you up." he said threatening me. "Are you on drugs?" I asked, getting really freaked out now.
In the end, we the car's license plate and everything was cleared, so left the station. "Are you okay, sweetheart?" dad asked as we were leaving. "Yeah Dad, I'm just a little shaken up a bit." I answered. "Anyway, it's a good thing it's a Saturday today. I think you should take it easy today." he said "Okay, Dad." I said with my head hanging low, really confused about what is happening. "I don't get it; you're usually sober about these things, but transforming cars? Are you sure you're not studying too hard?" "I'm not exactly sure, but you know how Great - Great Grandma Archanna started to lose her mind a bit after going blind?" I asked. "Yeah, why?" Dad asked perplexed. "Well I think I might have inherited some of her madness, like a strange mutant gene." I said with worry. What I didn't know at the time was that I was going part of something much bigger than a hallucination.
