Hey guys, I just wanted you to know not to look for updates during the weekends. I most likely will never update on weekends. But during the week I should update everyday unless something. I'll usually tell you what's up! Also, if I end up not updating for a while, it's probably cause I'm grounded for throwing this junky school net book at the wall!

Chapter 10: No longer human
(Jenny's POV)
Well, first thing's first, I needed to find Optimus. He's probably worried sick about me! I wonder if they know I'd transformed. They should, I mean, Ratchet smart, for a super advanced robot.
So with Sunfire tightly pressed against my chest, I walked out of my room and into a slightly bigger room. I saw Optimus laying against the wall a crossed from me. His eyes were dimmed, meaning he was in recharge.
I walked silently a crossed the room until I was standing right in front of him. He didn't make a sound to my approach. I sat down and leaned against his leg. He looked to peaceful to wake up. Sides, who new when the last he was that he got a decent recharge. I knew how he was.
"Mommy,Ihungry!"Sunfire said in my head.
Crap! I didn't know how to feed a sparkling! I'm human after all.
I looked at my little sparkling as her eyes dimmed in sadness and hunger. I stood up and decided to find Ratchet. He'd be able to tell me how to feed her.
As I walked out the room, I looked over my body. I still looked human and everything. I knew I wasn't though. Maybe I was a pretender. Optimus told me about them. They were able to disguise themselves as the inhabitants of any planet.
I walked into the room I woke in. I had no clue where to look for Ratchet.
Sunfire let out a small cry.
"Ihungrymommy!Ihungry!"She sobbed.
I looked around frantically, wondering what to do. I could feel her sadness and pain. She was starting to cry.
"Shh, mommy's gonna help you."I tried to reassure while I tried not to freak out.
"Jenny?"
I spun around so fast that I startled Sunfire. She stopped crying for a second before picking up again. Ratchet was standing in the door, looking concerned.
"Ratchet! She's hungry and I have no clue how to feed her!"I said frantically.
"Calm down, I'll show you."
His holoform appeared in front of me. He touched my chest.
"Hey!"I complained.
But then looked in awe as my chest opened up so I could see what was inside me.
"Whoa!"
Ratchet's holoform took Sunfire carefully in his arms. The he put her into a small compartment right beside my spark. I was hypnotized by the beautiful glowing light before my chest closed again, closing Sunfire in. Then I heard a pop and slight pressure.
Then instant relief from Sunfire.
"Whoa. This is gonna be fun to adjust too."I said, looking up at Ratchet.
Literally. His holoform had disappeared and giant Ratchet looked down at me.
"How are you feeling?"He asked me.
I felt a weird tingling sensation go through my body. I knew he had just scanned me.
"I'm fine really. I just can't believe I've changed. Still trying to process this. Even my now advanced processors are having a hard time believing this."I joked.
He nodded.
"It will take some getting used to. You are now a full Cybertronian. We will help you all we can."
"I know! The Primes visited in my dreams. They told me I was Primus' incarnate and that I would have more power than any other Cybertronian alive."I explained.
His optics widened.
"Really. There has always been a prophecy that said a young femme who wasn't one of us, but was would help us stop the war. You are going to change the world as we know it."Ratchet explained.
I couldn't believe it. Why had Primus' picked me, out of all the femmes in the world to become his incarnate. I was gonna stop the war? But how? Was it going go be in a good way?
"Will you guys win then? I won't make it stop in a bad way will I? What if I mess up and the decepticons win!"I freaked.
"Calm down Jenny. You will do fine, I am sure of it. Besides, we do not know what all will happen. Now, have you talked to Prime yet?"
"No. If I had, don't you think he'd be at my side right now?"I raised an optic.
He shook his head.
"My mistake."He deadpanned.
I smirked.
"Totally. So am I good to go then? I'm not gonna keel over or anything right?"
He shook his head.
"You are fine. Now, get some rest."
"Aw, I've been sleeping for hours though! I'm not tired!"
He shook his head again and walked out of the room, muttering about 'stubborn femmes.' I giggled and sat down on the berth.
I sat there for a minute and just tried to process everything that was going on. Apparently I was real important to the world. I didn't see how I could change anything though. I was just a normal teenager only a week ago. Now look at me. I'm a mother to a sparkling, I'm the mate of the leader of the Autobots and I'm a Cybertronian instead of a human. Which should be interesting since I know absolutely nothing about being Cybertronian.
I sighed.
When you think about it, it's like I have two feet stuck in both worlds. I'm human, but I'm also Cybertronian. I was born human and turned into what I am. All I know is being human, but I'm not. Most humans probably won't accept me. I can eat or drink anymore. I'll probably never be able to see my mom again, though she probably won't even notice. The there's Mandy, who's probably pissed and looking for me.
"Wait a minute!"I exclaimed, sitting up.
The Primes said something about my friend coming here, that it would be too late to stop them. Did that mean Mandy was on her way here? What wold she do then. I'm no longer human, would she still accept me? How would she react to this whole mess? I don't want to lose her.
I started feeling really distressed and worried over probably nothing. I felt Sunfire squirm and let out a small whine.
"Mommyokay?"She asked worried.
I took a deep breath to settle my heartbeat. Then I thought rationally. Mandy has been my friend for years, she wouldn't just abandon me. Hell, she's probably more pissed than anything. She might even be too pissed to even pay attention.
I chuckled a little.
"Yes, my Sunfire, I'm fine. Just overreacting I suppose."
Understanding filtered through the bond. Then she let me know that she was done and wanted out. I opened my chest and grabbed her from out of there.
"Feel better, sweetspark?"I asked her.
She gave a tiny, innocent nod and my spark filled with warmth. She gazed at me with her big, blue innocent optics and I swear I thought I was gonna explode with happiness and love.
"Yesmommy.Ifeelbetta'."She answered.
I giggle and brought her up so I could kiss the top of her helm and started rubbing her back. I brought her down to my chest plates and hugged her close.
"I love you sweetspark."I told her.
"Iloveyoutoomommy."She purred.
We sat there like that for a minute. I never noticed a pair of optics watching me with love and happiness until he spoke.
"I see your awake."He said.
I jumped up shocked, which scared and frustrated Sunfire. She clicked at me but I wasn't paying attention. I was staring at the mech in front of me.
"Optimus."I breathed.
I jumped up and ran over to him. He chuckled and held his hand down for me. I jumped into it and waited as he brought his hand up to his face.
"How are you feeling, my angel?"He asked me.
"Better! I got to meet the Primes!"I giggled.
His eyes widened much like Ratchets had.
"Really? What did they say to you?"Optimus asked me intrigued.
"They told me that I was Primus' incarnate and that I would have more power than any other Cybertronian. Also that I would change the world as we know and my decisions will stop the war once and for all, whether good or bad. I'm hoping for good though."I explained.
Optimus' listened carefully. He looked deep in though when I finished and I even saw his optics dim for a minute. When he came back, he smiled at me.
"And how do you feel about being a Cybertronian?"He asked.
I shrugged.
"It'll take some getting used too. All I've ever known is being human. But I know you guys will help me get through it so I'm good."I answered.
He nodded.
"We will help you any way we can."
"I know you will. Now, what happened during the two days I was gone?"I asked.
He smiled and explained to me everything that they had been through after I had passed out.
(Mandy's POV)
Once the plane arrived, I got a taxi to take me straight to Hoover's Dam. We had to drive around all the work and stuff that was going on at Mission City, but when we arrived, I paid the man and watched him leave before turning around.
Next, I went soldier hunting. I knew someone had to know what the hell was going on with Jenny. I saw one after about five minutes searching and I stomped over to him.
"Hey, you, I have a question."I said as I approached him.
He turned towards me and I saw his name was W. Lennox. He looked tired as hell and he was covered in dust from the city.
"Damn, you look awful. Anyway, my name is Mandy Hopkins and I'm looking for my friend and I want to know where she is."I told him.
He looked at me warily, before sighing.
"Who's your friend and I'll see if anyone has heard anything about her."He told me.
"Her name is Jenny."His eyes widened in recognition. "Jenny Miyagi and if I don't see her soon, there is gonna be hell to pay."
He gave me one more wary look.
"Stay here and I'll call my boss."He told me.
I crossed my arms and watched him walk away. Once he was about far enough from me, out of normal human hearing range, he grabbed a phone from out of his pocket and dialed a number. I grinned and thanked the lord I had great, unhuman hearing. I could hear everything he was saying. No one knew why my hearing was so great, but it was.
"Hello, Prime. This is Lennox. I got a girl here who's demanding to see Jenny."I heard him tell this Prime person.
"Whoisshe?AndhowdoessheknowJenny?"Prime asked Lennox.
"Her name is Mandy Hopkins and she says she's Jenny's friend."Lennox answered.
There was a gasp on the line.
"Mandy'sthere?"Agirl'svoicecameon.
I recognized the voice as Jenny, but it sounded more metallic and unnatural than hers. But it sounded like she knew me.
"Yes, do you know her."
The girl who sounded like Jenny groaned.
"Yes, but she's probably super pissed that I didn't tell her anything." Damn straight. "The Primes said she would be here. Go ahead and bring her to me."
"You sure?"
"Yeah,ifnotshe'sgonnatearthisplaceapartlookingforme.Mightaswellfacethemusicnow.Hopefullyshewon'thatewhatIamnow."The girl answered resigned.
My eyes brow knitted in confusion. Why would I hate Jenny, she's like a sister to me and what does she mean 'whatIamnow?'.
I didn't really had time to figure out what she meant because Lennox hung up the phone and made his way back to me.
"She's definitely here and I was told to bring her to you. Follow me."He said, motioning to follow.
I followed him into the building, excited to see my friend and nervous and confused by what she said.
(Back to Avolla)
I paced back and forth nervously. Mandy was here, just like I knew she would be. She's stubborn and would do ever thing she could to get what she wanted. But I was nervous about what she would think about me no longer human.
"Jenny, calm down. Everything will be fine. Also, your worrying Sunfire."Optimus told me.
I stopped pacing and walked over to my sparkling. I picked her up and held her close before letting out a deep breath.
"I know, I'm just nervous. Mandy can be unpredictable and, well, I am different now. What if she becomes afraid of me or thinks of me as some kind a freak. She's the closet thing I have to family since I lost my dad and my mom stopped coming home."I explained nervously.
Optimus' holoform appeared in front of me and he pulled me into his arms, hugging me close. Then he kissed my forehead and started rubbing my back.
"Everything will be ok. Don't worry, my angel."He said.
I sighed and leaned into the hug. Of course, I forgot Sunfire was in between Optimus and I and we accidentally squished her a little. We both jumped apart when we heard her muffled cries and struggles to get free.
She glared at us while Optimus and I chuckled.
"I'm sorry sweetspark."I said, as I kissed her helm.
I rubbed her back and she started purring. I giggled.
Optimus' eyes softened even more and he kissed her helm as well.
"Iloveyoumommyanddaddy."Sunfire giggled.
I smiled up at Optimus. He looked so happy and at peace.
"I love you too sweetspark."I said, smiling at my mate.
He smiled back at me before looking down at Sunfire.
"I love you too."He said and his optics lite up once again.
Sunfire giggled and cooed. I felt my spark warm up again. I leaned up and kissed Optimus in completely happiness and bliss. When we pulled away, there was a knock at the door.
"Stay here in your holoform for now. We don't want to freak her out, we need to take it slow."I told Optimus.
He nodded.
There was another knock on the door, this time more frantic and angry.
"Is someone gonna answer that?"Ratchet said, annoyed.
Thankfully he was in his holoform. He was about a foot shorter than Optimus. He had short, cropped blond hair. He was wearing glasses and a yellow button downed shirt and jeans.
"Sorry Ratch. I'm getting it now."
I took a deep breath and handed Sunfire over to Optimus. Then I went over to open the door. I was immediately glomped by Mandy.
"Mandy, c-can't b-breathe!"I coughed.
She pulled back and glared at me.
"You deserve it bit-" I cut her off.
"Don't you dare cuss in front of my daughter." I warned, narrowing my eyes.
She looked at me confused before shaking her head.
"We'll talk about that in a minute. What the heck were you thinking? Just running off like that? Do you have any clue how worried I was about you!"She practically yelled.
I could feel how scared and distressed Sunfire was getting as Mandy got louder and louder.
"And to think, all we've been through and you just leave me like this! Does our friendship mean nothing?"
Sunfire started crying then.
"Mandy!'I cut her off mid rant.
I turned around and ran over to my sparkling. Optimus handed her over right away.
"Shh. It's ok, Sunny. Mommy's here."
Mandy walked over cautiously and looked down at my little Sparkling.
"That's your daughter? But she's a robot."Mandy asked, confused.
I looked down at my daughter, who still had a little bit of energon tears I her eyes, and sighed. I kissed her helm.
"Yes, she's mine. I'm aware she's not human." I took a deep breath. "And neither am I."
She gave me a weird look.
"What the hel- err, heck are you talking about? Of course your human, you look and feel human!"Mandy exclaimed.
Sunfire started tearing up again.
"Mandy!"I sighed. "Look, this is just a form of myself. At least I think it is?"
I looked over at Ratchet. He nodded in confirmation.
"Yes, this is just another form of yourself. You will also have a vehicle form and your bi-pedal form."Ratchet explained.
I nodded.
"See. I'm no longer human."
Mandy looked between me, Ratchet, and Sunfire. Confusion and disbelief written all over her face. She started shaking her head.
"But, how? Why? Why didn't you tell me this before?"She asked, sounding hurt.
"It just happened. I'm not even sure how or why, but I was chosen to be and do more. And to do that, I have to be who I am." I willed my chest to open, which it did, causing Mandy to gasp. "I'm a robot, a Cybertronian. I'm not human and I hope you can still accept me."
I closed my chest again.
Mandy just looked at me, confusion clouded her features again.
"Jenny. Y-you're a robot!"she exclaimed.
I just nodded. She looked at me confused again, before fainting right on the spot.
"Well, that went well."I stated.
(I'm soo sorry I haven't updated in forever! I'm just been soo busy! Between school, Thanksgiving and chores and other stuff, I haven't been able to write! I promise not to take as long next time! R&R even if it's just to yell at me!)
