Sorry I haven't updated for a while. I've been busy with school and this chapter took me a long time to write! Hopefully, I won't take this long to update. Oh, and I want to thank EmpressOfBladez for given me the suggestions.
I was wandering around the base, with no actual destination in mind. Finally able to have some quiet time to myself, I put on my earphones. I then started to put on whatever song I felt like listening to right now. Which happens to be Imaginary by Evanescence. Don't judge me by what kind of music I listen to. I listen to pretty much any genre of music, anime songs, and Vocaloid* songs. (So don't judge, seriously!) I listened to it happily as I always would whenever I listen to music.
(Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, paper flowers) [X2]
I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming
Monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops, as they're falling, tell a story
[Chorus:]
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby (flowers)
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me (flowers)
Don't say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos - your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape
[Chorus]
Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Oh, how I long for the deep sleep dreaming
The goddess of imaginary light
[Chorus]
(Paper flowers)
I smiled to myself, I don't care if the songs Evanescence are sad. The band is awesome and I'm glad I heard their song Bring Me to Life, which got me into the band. However, I do enjoy other music artists that I don't normally hear on KVMQ-FM 99.7 (it's a radio station). Nevertheless, I enjoy music just the same, because it cheers me up if I'm sad, an emotion that I rarely feel. Music always makes me feel happy, especially when I play on the piano, violin, harp, well any instrument that can play harmonious, classical music. Music is one of my friends, because I always listen to music,every single day, no matter where I am.
"Hey, li'l lady! Where ya going?"
I turned around, to see Jazz and Prowl right behind me. I may be listening to music right now, but I can still hear other people, and no, it has nothing to do with my powers.
"Hi Jazz, Prowl."
"What'cha listenin' to?"
"Music."
"Really? What kind of music do ya listen to?"
"Any genre." Jazz nodded in deep satisfaction that someone else also enjoys listening to music.
"That's cool. I think Blaster would like you as well!" I smiled to that comment.
"You are currently on your own in the hallway, shouldn't you be with your cousins?" Prowl asked me.
"No, they'll be fine. Just as long as they don't fall for any more pranks." I said.
"Heh, that'll be tough! Those two are pros when it comes to pranks!" laughed Jazz.
"Ha ha ha! That's true! They actually fell for one prank when we were heading to the Rec Room, but I was able to avoid it."
"You avoided one of their pranks?" Prowl asked me, raising an optic ridge.
"Yeah."
All of the sudden, I saw Prowl fall towards the ground. He glitched.
"Wow, so you glitch when I say that I was able to avoid a prank pulled by the Twins and you don't when you learned that my cousins and I are humans with powers?" I said, with a tone of sarcasm in my voice. Jazz, on the other hand, was too busy laughing to answer my question.
"He actually kinda glitched during that time...but he quickly recovered afterwards. But avoiding the Twins' prank? That takes skills ta be able ta avoid them!"
"Well, I did and that's all I have to say." I smirked. "He'll be okay, right?"
"He'll be fine. It ain't serious, so he'll recover eventually."
"Well, I'll be off now. See ya later!"
"Later, Sandra!" Jazz called out with a wave. I smiled to myself and continued walking.
Boy, if I ever thought that the interior of the Ark is huge, I would probably have to rephrase it because the place is GINORMOUS! The hallway seems like there's no end! The orange colors is starting to blind me, and it's really easy to get lost.
But there was this one room, that sort of caught my attention. Given that curiosity killed the cat (stupid curiosity!), I went inside.
Wow! There were so many weapons, and they were huge guns! I bet these things could do a whole lot of damage if I ever use one! Well..not that I ever show my enthusiasm for it. I'm the silent type of person. I was too busy staring at the weapons and listening to music at the same time to realize that someone was coming before the person spoke.
"Are ya just gonna stand there all day?" I heard a Southern accent say. I turned around the see a giant red mech staring down at me with a grin, as if he actually doesn't mind having me around.
"Oh...sorry Ironhide." I muttered.
He only chuckled and lightly tapped my hand in playfulness. "Ah'm just messing with ya, Sandra. It seems ta me that yer interested in weapons as well."
"Was and always will be interested in weapons. I've been trained to use ancient weapons as well, like the bow and arrows, Bo staff, swords, things like that." I replied. "...And I've also been taught to use guns."
He gave me a confused look. "Aren't ya too young to even use a gun?"
"Yes, but I only use it when necessary."
"That's good. Ratchet would start lecturing ya if he heard ya say that."
"Wow."
"Gotta go to the Training Room. See ya around, kid!"
"Later!"
We both walked out of the room we were in and walked in opposite directions. This day just kept getting better!
As I was walking towards the hallway, I swear I heard the song of running. By the time the noise got faster, I saw a blue streak going past me and I felt my hair flying along with the velocity of who knows what. It back right towards me and when it stopped, I see a blue mech staring right back at me.
"HiSandrait'snicetomeeyouI'msorryIdon'thavetimetotalkrightnowbutI'llseeyousoon!" and he took off right away. Didn't even need to check my Transformers knowledge to know I had just bet Blurr.
"Well that was a quick greeting." I said,
Then I heard this really loud explosion and I immediately ran to wherever the noise came from. There was smoke coming out of the room, no surprise. I immediately walked in.
"Wow, what a surprise, Wheeljack. You are just the same in my world; tending to blow things up!"
The ash-covered figure just looked at me, but I could tell he was just amused. "And a hello to you, Sandra."
"Boy, you never cease to amaze me as to how your inventions blow up a lot." I replied.
"Yes and I must say, he needs to be more cautious when it comes to inventing." I heard a British-accented voice say. Appearing next to him was a red-colored mech with a scope on his shoulder.
"Hi Perceptor"
Perceptor looked down and gave me a smile. He proceeded to bend down and stroke my hand with his servo, which I found comforting...
"You know Sandra, I've met other humans before. But I have never seen a human with special abilities before."
"It's funny really, back in our world we were well known among "normal" humans. Our body functions and the anatomy are still the same. The only difference is that our energy levels are much higher. The difference with Gods is that when you observe a God's blood, you will see very special cells among the red blood cells."
"That is fascinating." Perceptor mused. It's no surprise that he is really interested in science, he'll probably want to know more about our race...not that I have anything against it.
"Err...it's nice that chat and all but I think we better get cleaning here." said Wheeljack.
"Oh yeah," I looked around the room. Boy, it was a mess! There are a lot of what remains of Wheeljack's invention which I don't know and don't want to know. "Jeez, this place is a mess!"
I just stood there and watched as they both set to work picking up the leftover pieces of the invention, apparently they didn't want me to overexert myself to use my powers to help them, so I just stood there and not get in their way. I don't remember how long I've been standing there because I suddenly felt something breathe on me. I turned around and found myself facing the face of a robotic T-Rex.
"Uh...hi Grimlock" I said. Grimlock just kept looking at me and his face was very close to mine.
"Who you little human and how you know me Grimlock?" he asked me.
"My name is Sandra and I know you because in my world you guys are fiction and you are the leader of the Dinobots. You guys are also very strong and are able to beat the Decepticons."
Grimlock still kept looking at me, his gaze still not leaving mine. Okay, I'm not scared of him but the way he's looking at me is making me feel uncomfortable.
"Grimlock please don't scare her!" I heard Perceptor beg, he sounded very worried that he might do something to scare or hurt me. However, Grimlock simply lifted his head back up but he is still looking at me.
"Me Grimlock say you Sandra good human. Now you go meet other Dinobots." he said happily.
"He seriously wants me to go meet the others?" I asked, turning to Wheeljack and Perceptor.
"I wish we were wrong but he really wants you to go, Sandra." said Wheeljack.
"It is very unusual, he does not normally open up to others." said Perceptor.
"Well, that's nice to kn-Whoa!" I felt Grimlock's jaws grab onto the back of my black wool shirt with white sleeves coming out from the black shirt sleeves and carried me off to whatever destination he intends to take me. Both Wheeljack and Perceptor followed us to make sure I was safe. After who knows how long, Grimlock walked into a cave and set me down on the ground.
"Dinobots! Meet her Sandra! She new here!" I heard Grimlock shout. I heard a bunch of shuffling and soon the rest of the Dinobots appeared before me. I remembered what their names were: Sludge, Slag, Swoop, and Snarl.
"You know, it's actually much better to actually see you guys in person!" I said with a smile.
"Me Swoop like new human." The Dinobots growled in agreement.
Who would've thought that I would already be on the Dinobots' good side when I just met them!
Apparently Perceptor and Wheeljack thought so too!
*Vocaloid is a singing synthesizer application that is sold in Japan. If your curious you could look it up and search on Youtube, some of the songs are pretty good.
Any other suggestions on who else Sandra should meet? I'm making this 5 parts and I simply can't write all the meetings she has with the Autobots, so tell me who you want her to meet, it could your favorite G1 Autobot. Please R&R!
Disclaimer: I don't own the band Evanescence and their song Imaginary, nor do I own Vocaloid, I only own Sandra, Debbie, Calvin, Nelson and this story.
