Time for the random quote of the day!!
Alright I will now tell you guys a random quote from something I watched today. Today's quote comes from 'That 70's Show' I hope you all find it funny.
It takes place between Red and Kelso:
Red: What the hell are you doing?
Kelso: I needed to borrow your saw.
Red: Why?
Kelso: I have something I need to cut down, a tree. Because there is something stuck up it, an animal... A rabbit.
There is a rabbit stuck up a tree and I want to cut it down so that I can return it to the wild so it can lay its eggs.
Red: Kelso rabbits.... How the hell did a rabbit get stuck up a tree?
Kelso: Eric threw it up there!
Red: Eric... Threw a rabbit up a tree??
Kelso: He's a sadistic bastard..... Do you know he once hit a cow?
There now I hope you all liked that little thing, it made me laugh.
Anyway back to what is important.
Will is going to have a flash back in this chapter so it will be marked so no one gets confused.
Have you shown your beta love today?? If not then do so, if you don't have one show it to someone else's ^_^
Angelic: Now I want to sing a song, thanks a lot… SHOW ME LOVE SHOW ME LOVE TILL I'M SCREAMING FOR M- oh wait, that's not exactly appropriate… My mistake. And you are one crazy motherfragger Smounged, you know that?! Good lord, no breaks!!! XD just kidding.
Now who wants to get to the story??
Really? No one.... Well I am going to do it anyway and if you happen to like it then hurray.
Will sighed as he looked up at the ceiling, as the look of pure dread on his face would make anyone think that he had just been told he was dying. He let out a groan as a tremor of pain raced up his back, but right now he could care less about it, instead focusing on what happened earlier on that day.
The house was empty and quiet, everyone was gone except him. He couldn't help but replay the conversation he had with Sarah over and over again. He knew that it wouldn't go well, but for her to leave, it was something that he had not expected to happen.
(Flash Back)
They pulled into the driveway a little over an hour later. Will's nerves hadn't settled during the long drive home, despite the normally relaxing effects it usually had. Ironhide had tried a few times to talk with him; to try and calm him down, but nothing the black truck said helped. This was just one of those times where you had to grit your teeth and dive into the oncoming storm. After the truck came to a stop, Will sat inside for a while longer trying to will his legs to move, and finally gave up trying to force himself out, so he asked for Ironhide's help in getting him out of the cab.
Ironhide had been confused for a while, wondering why Will couldn't move from inside him. He finally decided to ask him about it later and chose to comply with Will's request. He popped open his driver's side door and tipped the seat so that Will would slide out. Before the Captain could hit the ground, Ironhide activated his holoform to catch him. Once Will was on his feet and able to move again, Ironhide did as Will asked and left for the barn.
When Will looked up at the house, a feeling of dread crept into him. He slowly made his way up the small dirt path and to the front door. After another moment of hesitation, he opened the door and walked in. He instantly saw Sarah sitting on the couch watching television with Annabelle, the little girl sitting in her lap. He wanted nothing more than to just join them and pretend like nothing had happened, but that wasn't an option.
He made his way into the living room and stood beside the couch until Sarah noticed him. She stood up and wrapped her arms around him, giving him a gentle hug. He returned the hug but it wasn't as warm and tight as it normally was, and he knew that Sarah realized that. She whispered in his ear that she would be right back and she moved to take Annabelle up to her room. This was what they would always do whenever he had something to tell her, as they didn't want Annabelle to see or hear them fighting if it came to that. So they would put her in her crib with ether a bunch of stuffed animals to play with or they would play one of her favorite Disney movies if the conversation was going to take a while.
When Sarah came back downstairs Will gave her a questioning look.
"I put on a movie for her." She said simply.
Will nodded his head and sat down on the couch. Sarah sat next to him and took his hand in hers; she rubbed it for a moment before asking him what was wrong. Will sighed and tilted his head down.
'It's now or never.' He thought to himself, and mustered up his courage.
He lifted his head and looked in her blue eyes. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
"Sarah, you know that I love you, and that I would never do anything to hurt you or Annabelle, right?" He began.
"Will please tell me what is wrong." She pleaded, an anxious expression making itself apparent on her face.
"I lied to you." He went on. "When I told you that I had fired my gun in the back yard... That isn't what really happened."
"What did you do? Tell me Will, it can't be that bad." She told him, hoping what she said was true.
"I... had sex with... someone else." He cast his eyes down, not wanting to look at her eyes, which would undoubtedly be filled with anguish.
There was silence as what he said sank into her. She slowly lifted his head so that he was looking into her eyes. There was shame and guilt all over his face.
"Will, don't be ridiculous! Who was here for you to have sex with? There was no other car outside and I would have passed them if they had left." She said to him with a nervous smile on her face, trying to convince herself that he was lying.
"The person has always been here." He mumbled, and looked away.
She let out a forced laugh.
"Will, the only person who is always here is…" She stopped when it hit her. "...Ironhide?"
He took the chance and forced himself to look at her. She had the look of surprise and shock that he predicted she would have. The silence grew for a while until neither one could take it. Finally, Sarah broke it with the question he knew was coming.
"Will, are you trying to say that you... had sex with Ironhide?" She asked, with the volume of her voice hardly above a whisper.
Will shut his eyes and nodded his head.
"Will, he is a robot- an alien robot! How is that even possible?" She asked her voice getting a little higher as hysteria began to set in.
"It's hard to explain. It's..." He sighed, not liking to use the word that would come out of his mouth next. "Complicated."
Just like he thought, she mouthed 'complicated.' Will was worried now; this was where his fantasy of the conversation ended… He was on his own now.
A small noise came from Sarah before she spoke again.
"Why?" Was all she asked, with confusion and depression being the two most prevalent expressions on her face.
"I don't know… I have had these strange feelings for a while, and I never knew what they meant..." He was interrupted by her.
"Do you love him?" She asked quietly.
Will was surprised- he didn't think that she would ask that question.
"Will, do you love him?" She asked again, a little louder this time.
Will nodded his head.
"Yes." He told her.
She didn't say anything and neither did he. After a moment she stood up, and Will moved to stand too but stopped when she raised her hand.
"Will, you know that I love you more than anything, but... I just don't know what to do with this right now. I think.... I think I need some time alone." She murmured softly.
Will nodded his head.
"If you want, I'll pack a bag- I can stay at a motel for however long you want." He offered, knowing that he deserved that much for causing his wife such pain.
She shook her head.
"No Will, I need to go." She said, looking utterly heartbroken.
He was shocked beyond belief. Why would she leave? If anything, he should be the one forced out.
"Go?! Where will you go?" He voiced his thoughts.
"I'll go to my mother's for a while; I should be able to think this through there. I have wanted to go see her for a while anyway… and I am going to take Annabelle with me." Her voice was solemn, and quiet.
Will's face fell- this is exactly what he had been afraid of. She was going to take Annabelle away and never let him see her again. She was going to go to her mother's house, never planning on coming back, and she would never forgive him. His thoughts were interrupted by her voice once more.
"Don't give me that look Will. You know I would never keep you from seeing her. …I just need time, and you're too busy to watch her." She said.
Will nodded his head. She had a point and he couldn't deny it. Sarah went upstairs and was up there for a good thirty minutes, leaving him alone to his thoughts in the living room. When she finally came back down, she had a suitcase in one hand and Annabelle in the other. His little girl was situated on Sarah's hip, little fists curled into her mother's dress. Over Sarah's shoulder was a bag that he figured held clothes and other necessities for Annabelle. She walked over to him and kissed him on the cheek.
"Did you want Ironhide to take you there? It's a long drive." He asked her.
She shook her head.
"No, I will take the van. Besides, you need to figure out things with him." She told him.
She handed Annabelle to him so that he could hug and kiss her goodbye. His daughter seemed to know that something was going on because she remained quiet the whole time. She hugged him for a long time, and when Sarah took her back she started to sniffle, but did not cry. Sarah moved to the front door and stepped outside. Before she closed the door, she turned back to look at him.
"I will come back, just give me some time alright?" She said to him, voice shaky and eyes somewhat watery. She was holding back her tears.
"Alright." That was all he could say as the door closed behind her.
A few moments later, he heard the sound of their van starting and slowly pulling away from the house. He fell on the couch when the sound of the car faded. He remained on the couch for hours; not moving, not knowing what to do. When he finally looked at the clock, he was surprised to see that it was almost midnight. He had sat there for over six hours not moving. Finally he pushed himself off the couch, and made his way up stairs.
(End Flash Back)
Will looked at the clock and saw that another two hours had passed since he came up into his room. Finally deciding to try and get some rest, he moved under the covers, not even bothering to change out of his clothes. He laid his head down on the pillow and tried to sleep, but not succeeding until almost four in the morning.
"You want to do what?!"
Ratchet's voice echoed from the lookout and Optimus was sure that people in the town below had heard it. He had expected a reaction like this from the medic and had braced himself for it. Ratchet had made it to the outlook exactly thirty minutes after Prime had radioed him. Optimus then told him everything that the Primes had told him and then what he was planning on doing, and needless to say, it didn't sit well with the bot.
"You want to trick Sam, Will and Mikaela into ingesting shards of the AllSpark just so their transformation will happen sooner? And you want me to help you do that?!" Ratchet shouted again.
Optimus waved his hand to try and calm the medic down, but it did little to help.
"What other choice do we have Ratchet? The Primes told me that this needs to happen in order to protect them." Optimus tried.
"I don't care what the Primes want! They are our friends; almost the only ones we have on this planet and you want to risk losing that friendship?! Let's not forget to mention how Ironhide, Jazz and Bumblebee will react to this," Ratchet harshly said, this time his voice being slightly quieter.
"What would you suggest then? Because I doubt that they will willingly swallow them." Optimus Prime was starting to get frustrated, and his patience was wearing thin.
"You should still talk to them about it; tell them what is happening and what needs to be done. They are reasonable and understanding, and they trust you- especially Sam and Mikaela. They look up to you." Ratchet informed him, blue optics reproachful of the Prime's action.
A look of shock crossed his face plates. He knew that they respected him, but he didn't know that they looked up to him!
"Optimus," Ratchet began softly, "Part of being a leader is listening to others and knowing when to take their advice. My advice is simple- I strongly advise you not to trick them into this. If you do, then when they find out you will lose their trust and respect."
Optimus lowered his head. He knew that it was wrong to even think about it, but he was running out of options.
"I know that this is the wrong way to go about it, but I don't think that they will do it willingly." Optimus said, his shoulders sinking.
Ratchet shook his head and grumbled to himself.
"Talk to them Optimus, and convince them. They will do the right thing." Ratchet said to him.
"I hope you are right." Optimus murmured.
Ratchet looked smug. "I know I am. I have been around you for long enough to have picked up some of your overly optimistic attitude."
Optimus chuckled for a moment before he continued.
"Very well then. When we are able to convince them that this is for the best, we will need to sedate them and find a place for them to stay during the forming of their sparks."
Ratchet thought for a moment.
"I can put together a sedative that they can take after ingesting the shards; it should keep them out for a few hours. After that I suggest that we move them to a hospital, so that they can be put on a constant sedative to keep them under until it has passed."
Prime nodded his head.
"We will have to be sure to keep the human doctors away from the rooms that they are in just in case something happens."
"We could have Keller talk to the hospital head and make sure that there employees know that only we can see them." Ratchet offered.
"If we did that then Keller would want to know what is going on. If the human government was to learn about the AllSpark I fear that they will try and take them." Optimus said, sounding worried.
"Mr. Keller is a reasonable human. If we tell him to keep the secret I am sure that he will." Ratchet told him.
Optimus nodded his head. "Very good. When the three of them are in the hospital, we will need to be there as well. Have you chosen a shape for your holoform yet?"
Ratchet nodded his head.
"I found that the human internet is very helpful in that area. I have taken a liking to a certain human's form who acts as a doctor on one of their television programs. Have you been able to find one?"
He shook his head.
"With organizing everything with the human government, I have not found the time to construct one."
"Well then it is lucky that I took it upon myself to pick a few human forms that I feel fit you." Ratchet said.
His eyes dimmed as he sent the information and pictures to Optimus, who then received the images and proceeded to shuffle through them.
"Interesting. You have certainly found an impressive group. I will review them closer later tonight." Optimus told Ratchet.
He nodded his head.
"Is there anything else you need from me tonight? If not, I would like to get some recharge." Ratchet asked.
"No old friend, I have nothing more now." Prime told him.
Ratchet nodded his head and started to transform back into his alt mode. Once he was done, he set off down the road and out of sight. Optimus watched him leave until his optics couldn't see him anymore. He was glad that he had called Ratchet… He knew that the medic would be able to talk him out of tricking the three of them. Now he only hoped that talking them into it would be as easy as he made it out to be. He sighed, and ran his hand back over his face plates.
He bent down and shifted back into his alt mode and took off the same way Ratchet had left. He drove for a while until he came to one of the truck stops that he spent his nights in. He drove to the back of the lot where less people would be and settled down. As he sat there, he started to go through the list of humans that Ratchet had given him. They were good and anyone of them would be suitable for him, but if he was going to take the form of one of them he wanted to make sure that he liked the way it looked.
He had gotten almost to the end of the list without finding one that was right for him, and he was about to give up and start making one from scratch like Bumblebee had until he reached the last name and picture on the list. He spent a few minutes looking over it and studying the form before he found that it was the perfect look for him. It was an actor much like the one Ratchet had found. He was a middle aged man with white hair and fine features. If Optimus were human he figured that this is what he would look like, but with a few adjustments to the image. He took some of the grey out of the hair and took away some wrinkles to make him a little younger looking; he made it more muscular and a little tanner. Finally he was finished with his alterations and set the image into his holo projector.
It would take a few hours for his systems to copy the form and be able to project it, so he settled down and decided to get some rest. He turned off all his scanners except for the most important ones that would let him know if danger was coming. He also turned up his radio so he would be woken up if someone was tiring to contact him.
The night grew quiet as the normal clicking and whirling sounds that normally came from his body began to stop. Soon he was in recharge and images of how Cybertron looked before the war began to play through his mind.
Sam woke up to both the sound of his alarm going off and his mother pounding on his door.
"Sam! Wake up; you need to get ready for school!" She shouted.
He slammed his fist down on the alarm clock, cutting off the loud buzzing and beeping.
"I'm up okay?" He yelled to his mom, who then stopped her assault on the door.
He rolled over onto his back and let out a groan.
"I saved the world and am the future for an alien race; you would think that would mean I could sleep in every now and then." He said to himself.
He rolled out of bed and stumbled to the bathroom where he busied himself with his normal ritual and went back into his room to try and find some clothes. From his closet; he pulled out a pair of old jeans and a t-shirt. He threw the clothes on and grabbed his bag from the corner of the room. Walking down the stairs, he was greeted by the smell of cooking pancakes and eggs. He traipsed into the kitchen and went straight for the refrigerator. Even though it was early morning, the sun was already shining through the back door and the windows, making everything much brighter. Sam wished that summer would hurry up and get here so he wouldn't have to get up this early for a long time.
He grabbed the orange juice from the cooler and poured some into a cup; he drained it quickly and put the carton back in the refrigerator. Setting his glass in the sink, he moved out the back door and called out over his shoulder back towards the kitchen.
"See you later!"
"You're leaving already? I made breakfast Sammy." His mother sounded disappointed.
"I am not really hungry today. Just give it to dad- he'll be happy to eat it." He told her before he closed the door.
He walked over to the garage making sure to keep on the path, lest his father yell at him for touching his precious grass again. Opening the door, he smiled at the sight of the gleaming yellow car sitting inside. When he came inside, Bumblebee's engine revved and his head lights flicked on and off.
"Morning Bee." Sam said happily.
Bumblebee chirped happily at him and begin to play random music clips from his radio which made Sam laugh. Sam walked over to the large door and pushed it open, Bumblebee slowly rolled out of the garage and Sam closed the door behind him. Walking over to Bee's side he ran his hand along the roof and down the side, Bee shook a little at the touch and beeped happily. The door opened and Sam slid inside, putting his bag in the passenger seat.
He knew that Mikaela would be getting a ride with Jazz today, so he didn't need to go pick her up. He thought about swinging by Miles's house and asking if he wanted a ride, but Miles never liked getting into the car. He claimed that he got a bad feeling from Sam's car and that even though it was the coolest thing he had ever seen, he would never ride in it. Sam could deal with that since it meant that he could spend more time together with Bumblebee.
As they set off in the direction of the school Sam couldn't help but think back on yesterday before they left for the meeting. The look he had seen in Bee's holoform eyes hadn't left him all day. They were full of compassion, and another emotion that looked like love. It was strange when he thought about it then, but what was stranger was that he started to understand the feeling he would get whenever he thought about him. If he didn't know better, he would say that it was love.
Sam started to get a fluttery feeling in his chest at the mention of the word, now that he knew that is what it was. He had fallen in love with Bumblebee, and unless he was mistaken, Bee was in love with him too. He ran his hand smoothly over the steering wheel and rubbed his thumb over the Autobot symbol in the center. A shiver ran through Bee's body and Sam felt through the steering wheel. Bumblebee's reaction only confirmed what he thought. His only problem now was what to do about it- he had never been the bravest guy when it came to asking someone out. He was sure that he wouldn't be able to work up the courage to ask Bee out, and even if he did, where would they go?
His thoughts where cut short as he noticed that they were pulling into the parking lot of the school. The yard outside the school was swarming with students who were enjoying the warmth and sun of the early morning. There was still a good ten or fifteen minutes before school started and Sam was in no hurry to get inside the building. Bee pulled into one of the parking spaces right up front and was soon surrounded by the normal group of people who wanted to see the sexy car.
Sam knew that Bumblebee loved the attention, but he couldn't help being a little possessive. As long as they where only looking he was fine, but he would get pissed if one of them actually touched his Bee. Sam was brought out of his musing by a tap on the window, he looked out and saw Miles standing there grinning like an idiot. Sam rolled down the window and asked,
"What's up?"
"Dude I got something amazing to show you." He said sounding very happy.
Sam sighed.
"Miles, I swear if you show me another one of those stupid kitten calendars that you order off the internet, then I am going to run you over." He threatened.
Miles grin grew."No man this isn't a calendar I swear!"
"Fine get in I don't want to get out right now." Sam said.
Miles face fell a little. "Dude you know that I won't get in this car. Just come out so I can show this to you."
Sam rolled up the window and he heard Bee let out a whining noise from the speakers. He patted the dashboard and rubbed the leather of the seat as an apology to him.
"I won't be far." He whispered to Bee.
Sam opened the door and stepped out, he closed the door and leaned against Bee's side.
"OK, what is so amazing?" He asked.
Miles grin grew again as he pulled something out of his bag. Sam looked at it for a moment before he realized it was a portable DVD player. Miles set the DVD player on Bumblebee's hood and turned it on.
"Hey! What is going on?" Sam asked him.
"Proof that is what is going on." Miles said to him.
To say that Sam was confused was an understatement.
"Proof? Proof of what?" He asked.
"That what happened in Mission City wasn't a terrorist attack." Miles said as he hit the play button.
Sam looked over at the little screen wanting to know what Mile managed to find. On the screen it looked like someone was doing this with a normal video camera, as the person was hiding in an alley way of a building and there were shouts and screams coming from the small speakers. There was the sound of explosions and people running in every direction. Just when Sam was going to ask how this was proof, he saw something that made him lose his breath. There on the screen was a small version of him running down the destroyed street, and he could see the AllSpark clutched in his hands. As his mini self left the screen a voice he had hoped to never hear again came floating out of the speakers.
It was deep, rough and filled with a lot of anger and hate.
"Give me the Cube boy!"
The voice of Megatron shouted just before one of his large feet came crashing down in front of the camera. It left just as quickly as it came and all that was left was the shouts and yells from the person holding it. The video ended and the screen went black, Miles looked back at Sam and he had to act quickly to get rid of the shocked look on his face.
"Where... where did you get that?" Sam asked.
"My brother sent the CD to me; he said that he downloaded it from a website just before it got shut down. He was able to burn it onto a CD before his computer got uploaded with a virus that erased his hard drive."
Sam didn't know what to say at first. He had thought that the government had gotten rid of everything that had captured moments from Mission City, but apparently this was not so.
"Now there is no way you can tell me that that isn't real. Come on man you have to tell me now, you were there." Miles said with a grin.
Sam shook his head.
"Sorry man but that looked fake to me. Anyone could have made that on their computer." Sam said desperately. The look on his friends face told him that he wasn't falling for it.
"Come on how can you deny it. You were on the video, how could someone fake this stuff with you right in the middle of it?" Miles asked sounding angry.
"Miles it didn't happen, whoever filmed this obviously took a video from the attack and they caught me while I was running to get into a building to take cover." Sam snapped at him.
Miles looked angry and reached to take the CD out of the player; but when he opened the lid, a cloud of dark smoke came from inside and the smell of burning plastic reached their noses. When the cloud disappeared both boys looked inside to find that the CD had completely melted. Miles let out a groan and picked up the ruined DVD player.
"Man, I paid like one hundred bucks for this thing." He said in irritation, and tossed the machine into a nearby garbage can.
"Look it's probably for the best. Now you can put this whole stupid thing behind you." Sam tried to console him, but it didn't sit well with his friend. Miles grumbled something and moved to a bench nearby to sulk for a while. Sam sat back inside Bumblebee to wait for Mikaela to get there.
"Hey Bee, did you do that?" Sam asked once the door was closed.
"Yes I did. We couldn't let your friend spread that video around." Bumblebee said.
He was a little nervous as to how Sam would react to it but was relieved when he started to laugh. They sat in silence for a little while until the loud roar of an engine and the heavy bass of a song began to be heard. Sam rolled his eyes.
"Looks like Jazz and Mikaela are here." He said to Bee.
Bee laughed and opened the door for Sam to get out. Just as Sam closed the door Jazz's alt mode pulled into the spot next to him, and inside it sat Mikaela and Jazz's holoform. She was laughing as another large group of students began to gather around them. Jazz winked at Sam and Bumblebee as Mikaela got out, grinning like a loon. Jazz turned off his stereo and let the engine idle as he got out too. Mikaela went over to Sam and wrapped her arms around him in a friendly hug. Sam returned it as Jazz came over and leaned against his side, Mikaela moved back next to him and he threw his arm over her shoulder.
"Damn, how did you guys get such kick ass rides?" One of the students asked.
The three of them laughed and Sam wished that Bumblebee could join in but he couldn't turn on his holo without scaring everyone. Sam rubbed his hand over the side of Bee's alt and felt Bee bounce a little on his shocks. Sam laughed again at that and patted Bee's side.
"Aw... Is little Bee upset that he can't play?" Jazz teased. Bee's engine revved a little causing some of the kids that were left to stare at him.
Jazz laughed again before Mikaela jabbed him in the side with her elbow.
"Be nice to him." She said chidingly.
In response, Jazz pulled her closer to him, causing a blush to rise to her cheeks. Sam looked at the two of them with a raised eyebrow.
"Well you two are pretty close aren't ya?" He asked.
This made Mikaela blush even more, and she was about to say something but was interrupted by the school bell. Both Mikaela and Sam looked over at the building and let out a sigh. Sam opened the door again and reached in to grab his bag, making sure to have as much contact with Bee's interior as he could before getting out and closing the door again.
"I'll see you in a few hours, okay buddy?" He whispered quietly to him.
Bumblebee clicked at him in response. When Sam turned around, he caught Mikaela pulling away from Jazz, with her lips a little puffy and redder than normal. Sam didn't say anything right there- he would wait until they got into the school. Jazz and Mikaela said their goodbyes.
"I will be back when you get out," he said to her.
She nodded her head and watched him drive off. The two of them walked up to the school and went in through the main door, separated and headed to their lockers to grab the things they would need for their first class. Sam grabbed his math book from his locker and headed off to try and make it to his class room before he was late. Unfortunately, the class was on the other side of the building and he had to almost run to make it there. Luckily, he was just able to make it inside before the late bell rang. He went to his seat in the back of the class and sat down. He immediately noticed that Trent wasn't there, but that wasn't all that surprising since he was always skipping classes.
Mikaela sat down a few desks to the right of him and he gave her a smile. She returned it with another blush before the teacher started to talk about what they would be doing that day. The class was uneventful and Sam spent most of it doodling in his notebook and inside his math book. When it came time to do the assignment he was able to do it without thinking too much about it, and he figured that the lesson wasn't all that hard to do since he was normally terrible at math.
When the bell rang for class to end, he turned in his paper and was glad to hear that they didn't have homework. He walked with Mikaela to their next class which he liked much better then math. They entered their English/literature class and quickly found seats next to each other, since the teacher in this class didn't mind if his students sat where they wanted as long as they paid attention and did their work. The two of them where soon joined by Miles who sat down on Sam's other side.
He grumbled a hello to the two of them; and Sam figured he was still upset about his DVD and CD. Mikaela gave him a questing look and Sam leaned over and whispered to her,
"I'll explain that later."
She nodded, dark locks bouncing slightly with the motion. The teacher came in at that moment and everyone grew quiet.
"All right everyone I hope that you enjoyed your weekend, because today we are going to start one of the greatest love stories of all time… the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare."
Everyone groaned as he started to pass out copies of the book.
"Now now everyone, it's not as bad as young people say." He told them.
"Come on teach, it's almost summer! We will never finish this before then," Miles said waving the book around.
"Mr. Lancaster I assure you that we will be able to finish it." He said. "Now then let's begin. Since you are so opinionated today Mr. Lancaster, why don't you begin?"
Miles let out another groan as he opened the book. Forty five minutes later the narrative had switched from Miles to Mikaela to another student in the class. Soon a few students had fallen asleep, with their heads resting over their books to make it look like they were actually reading. A few minutes later; a loud beep filled the room, sending those students' heads crashing to the tables.
"Mr. Truman." The voice came from the speaker hanging on the wall.
"Yes?" He replied.
There was no answer; only the sound of arguing. It sounded like there were at least three people involved- two were arguing and the third was trying to calm the others down. Finally, the speaker cut out and there was silence. Everyone looked around at each other in confusion until another beep came from the speaker. A rough voice came drifting out of the speaker, sounding angry and annoyed.
"Hello... hello is this thing on?" The voice asked.
Sam's eyes grew wide as he recognized the owner of the voice. He looked over at Mikaela and saw she had the same look as him.
"Yes it is on!" Mr. Truman yelled to the speaker. "Who is this and what do you want?"
"This is..." The voice was interrupted by the original voice of the secretary.
"Sir, I must ask you to give that back to me- only school personnel are suppose to use that."
"Ratchet give it back to her, we are not here to cause a scene." The third voice cut across.
The deep base and rumble could only belong to one person.
"Prime I am merely trying to contact the children since this person does not seem to be able to."
Sam sighed and held his head in his head. There was no way that things could get any worse, he was wrong. There was the sound of the microphone being taken from one person to another.
"I apologize to everyone for this rude interruption of your studies, but it is very important that Samuel Witwicky and Mikaela Banes report to the front of the building as soon as possible." The voice of Optimus said.
As one everyone in the room turned to look at the two of them, if Sam could die from embarrassment he was sure that he would do it right now. He lifted his head as he heard Mr. Truman clear his throat.
"You two go and see what is going on up there before whoever it is gives her a heart attack."
"Yes Mr. Truman." They replied together in unison.
They grabbed their bags and headed out of the room. They quickly made their way through the school until they came close enough to the front that they could hear the commotion coming from there. They both stopped before they came around the corner that would put them in view of whatever was going on.
"Do you think that we should go up there?" Sam asked her.
"No, but we had better before they start tearing the school apart looking for us." She said, worry present in her blue eyes.
Sam sighed and together they rounded the corner and stopped when they caught sight of what was going on. Standing in front of the office was the principal, vice principal, two of the three secretaries and one of the security guards. They were all standing in front of two middle aged men. One was tall, thin, had brown hair and an extreme case of a five o'clock shadow that reached down his throat. His eyes were an electric blue. The second man was also tall, and his hair was dark with noticeable streaks of gray in it. Unlike the other person, he had no facial hair and he projected an air of command around him.
Sam nudged Mikaela's side and pointed to the two men.
"'Kaela is it just me or do those two look like Hugh Laurie and Mark Harmon?" He said to her.
She slowly nodded her head and covered her mouth to keep herself from laughing. At that moment, they were spotted by the one who looked like Hugh Laurie.
"Samuel, Mikaela." He shouted across the room.
Everyone gathered around turned to look at them and they were waved over by the principal, who looked distressed. They slowly made their way over to the group and were greeted by the upset faces of the school faculty, the scowl of the one they figured was Ratchet and the kind warm smile of the one who they knew was Optimus.
"Mr. Witwicky, Ms. Banes, do you know these two?" The principal asked while pointing at the two of them.
"Yes." They both said at the same time.
"Are they related to you?" The vice-principal asked.
"Yes!" Sam said before anyone else could speak. "They are our... uncles."
They all looked surprised at this.
"Really?" They all said.
"Yes this is my uncle, Optimus." Sam said pointing. He nodded his head with a smile.
"And my uncle Ratchet." Mikaela finished. Ratchet grunted.
"Fine then, but we need you to get them to leave- they cannot be here during school hours." The principal said before walking off.
The rest followed, with the last person to leave being the security guard. Once everyone was out of sight, the two of them let out sighs of relief.
"What are you guys doing here?" Sam asked Optimus and Ratchet.
"We needed to talk with the two of you." Optimus said sounding apologetic.
"The three of you," Ratchet cut in. "We need to talk to the three of you, it is very important."
Sam figured that by three he meant Will too and he quickly looked around expecting to see the army man. He didn't.
"Look we can't do this right now we have school." Mikaela said, and placed her hands on her hips.
"We know and we are sorry for barging in like this but it couldn't wait." Optimus said.
"What is so important? Please tell me that the Decep... I mean the you-know-what-can't-be-named aren't back." Sam asked worried.
Both Optimus and Ratchet shook their heads.
"No, this is AllSpark related." Ratchet said not bothering to cover up the word.
"I have been visited by the Primes again and we must speak about it, all of us. We will be meeting at Captain Lennox's house, Jazz is waiting outside for you Mikaela." Optimus informed them.
Sam sighed again, there was no way that they would let this go and he knew it. He figured that it was best to just go with what them and get whatever this was over with.
"Fine, we'll go- but we can't just leave school. We have to be called out by our parents." He told them.
Optimus turned and nodded his head to Ratchet, both of their eyes got a faraway look and they heard the phones ring in the office next to them. A second later the secretary came back out and handed the two of them a slip of paper.
"Both your parents just called, they said there was an emergency and you need to go with your uncles right now." She said eying the two men with suspicion painted across her features.
"Well I guess that takes care of that." Sam said as she left.
"Great! Let's get going before we all rust." Ratchet said.
Sam and Mikaela followed the two of them out of the building, and once they came into view of the parking lot, they saw both Optimus's and Ratchet's alt forms sitting in the lot. Sam raced over to Bee's side as the door popped open, and next to him Mikaela did the same with Jazz. They got in and the doors slammed shut, they waited for Optimus and Ratchet to exit before they moved out.
While Sam was worried what he was going to tell everyone tomorrow… but right now, he was just happy to be back with Bumblebee. They turned onto the highway and headed off in the direction of Will's house. Bee rolled down the windows and turned up the stereo so that it was playing "What I've Done" by Linkin Park at a really high volume, causing some people to curse as they drove by.
Sam laughed and patted the dashboard; Bumblebee revved his engine and shot off down the highway, his charge's laughter drifting along with it.
