Chapter 12
A Reunited Family
Ratchet got Breanna to the base and the others right behind him. Bumblebee transformed and got Breanna out to let Ratchet transform. Once he did he took the unconscious Breanna to a metal bed and laid her out on it. Ratchet very carefully aligned the bone in her leg and carefully wrapped a cast around it making sure it wouldn't move out of place.
Optimus stood right next to Ratchet seeing all the stuff he was doing on his daughter. He couldn't believe that Megatron had gotten a hold of her….Megatron was going to kill her. Optimus let out a worried sigh and Ratchet spoke, "Its okay Optimus she didn't suffer much damage as I thought. She's going to pull through Optimus."
"I know, but I still can't believe he got a hold of her." replied Optimus putting a hand over his face.
Ratchet turned to his leader and put a hand on his shoulder and said, "I'll give you guys some privacy. "
Once Ratchet left Optimus pulled up a chair and sat down in it. He gently stroked the few strands of hair in her face with his pinky and sighed. He was so happy to have her back with him. If he saw Megatron again and he still wanted his daughter he wouldn't hesitate to kill to protect her. He would sacrifice himself to protect her. He never wanted anything to happen to her…but he had failed. Megatron did get a hold of her and hurt her pretty badly…he will kill.
"Dad-daddy?" came a small murmured voice.
"Breanna!" Optimus exclaimed and slowly picked her up in his hand and held her close to his chest. "Oh Breanna I am so sorry."
"Daddy…daddy." she kept saying holding tightly on to his chest not wanting to let got of him afraid he wouldn't be there but Megatron with a fist coming at her.
"I'm here Breanna. I'm here. Nothing is going to harm you."
Breanna looked up at her father seeing it was really him and started crying right then and there unable to stop her sobs. Optimus gently stroked her back with his finger trying to calm her down.
"Its okay to cry Breanna. I'm here…Megatron isn't going to hurt you ever again." he whispered.
He felt her small body shudder at the sound of Megatron name and gripped tighter on to Optimus not wanting to let go. She felt so weak in front of her father. Yes she could see herself doing this when she was a little kid, but she was a teenager now…she wasn't supposed to cry.
Optimus just kept stroking her back and cooing softly to her. Ratchet slowly came in the room seeing Optimus and Breanna were together and Breanna was awake. He would make sure she was okay after a while. He wanted them to have some quality time. Finally when Breanna finished she looked up at her father and said, "I missed you so much daddy. I missed you so much. I thought I was never going to see you again."
"Breanna I wouldn't have let you be with the Decepticons and get tortured for all eternity. I missed you so much. I was willing to sacrifice myself if I couldn't get you." he replied.
Breanna just laid there not wanting to do anything. She was just so happy to be with her father again. She had missed him so much. She listened to his machinery work inside him which made her very calm and at peace. Her eyes slowly started to get droopy and she let her eye lids go down once and when she woke up she was on the metal bed once again.
She looked around and saw Ratchet sitting in a chair.
"Grandpa?" she questioned.
Ratchet quickly turned around and saw Breanna was up on the table. He walked over to her and asked, "How are you feeling?"
"Okay…I'm still sore."
"Do your lungs hurt when you breathe?"
"No…. just my leg." she whispered.
Ratchet did a whole scan on her body just to make sure. Some humans were not always positive with what they had said and would be badly injured. After he did the scan he knew she would be okay, but just tons of bruises on her body. Then at the very last moment Ratchet couldn't stand it any more. He quickly picked her up and held her rocking her back and forth muttering stuff in Cybertronian. He stroked her back and then held her up to his face and again held her to his chest.
"I was so worried about you. Your father and I both were." he whispered.
"I missed all of you."
Just then the rest of the crew barged into the room where Ratchet and Breanna was. When everyone came in and saw Ratchet loving up on Breanna all of them nearly dropped their jaws.
"Wow. I didn't know Doc had a heart." spoke Ironhide.
"Yeah….didn't know about that…oh and thanks Doc for bringing me back on line." spoke a silver Autobot.
"Yeah, have your carcass sitting around doing nothing." Ratchet retorted.
Optimus walked through the Autobots and took Breanna from Ratchet's hands. Then said, "Breanna I would like you to meet someone…this is Jazz…he died during the war when we found you."
"Hello lil' lady. Heard a lot of good things about you….since I was brought back on line. Primus its good to be back." he stretched.
"Its good to have you back Jazz." replied Optimus.
Jazz walked over to Optimus and Breanna who was sitting in her father's hand and saw how short Jazz was and said, "Geez you're short."
"Hey size doesn't matter. Plus you shouldn't be saying anything." he retorted.
Optimus looked at the two and sighed and said, "Breanna Jazz is your uncle."
"Now I have two uncles…that's cool." she exclaimed.
"Yes…so I'm an uncle now? Wow….last time I checked I was second in command." spoke Jazz.
Optimus slowly let Jazz see Breanna lowering gently into his hands. Jazz just held her and started saying how cute she was and threw her up in the air and caught her. Breanna let out tons of laughter from this until Optimus caught her and said, "None of that. She just came back from being at Megatron's base…she got a broken leg so none of that.
"Yes sir….I didn't know sir." Jazz replied.
"How could you not have known? I mean we told you we just came back." spoke an irritated voice.
Jazz turned around to Ironhide and retorted, "Well sometimes you're not fully on line when someone says it."
Breanna looked up at her father and snuggled up close in his hand and slowly started to close her eyes wanting some sleep, but soon she was wide away with screamings that had entered the room. She looked down and there was Mikaela, Sam and their kids.
"Oh Breanna! Are you okay!?" asked Mikaela.
"Yeah…just a broken leg…it could've been worse." Breanna laughed.
"I remember the last time I face Megatron…" spoke Sam and then shuddered, "If it weren't for Optimus I could have died by hitting the ground."
"Wow…" Breanna whispered and looked up at her dad.
Then suddenly Mikaela's phone rang. Everyone went quiet as she answered it and then put her hand over the speaker and said, "Breanna this boy named Alex wants to talk to you…do you know a boy named Alex?"
"Yes!" she exclaimed and tried to wiggle out of her father's hands, but couldn't because of her broken leg. Optimus put her down and she limped over to get the phone and answered it. She walked out of the room laughing and talking to the boy on the other line.
"Who is Alex?" asked Jazz.
"A boy whose pheromone levels are way too high when he's around Breanna." growled Optimus.
"Can I take care of him?" Jazz asked.
"I asked that same question…we're not allowed." grumbled Ironhide.
"Man that sucks."
"Optimus your little girl is growing up." spoke Mikaela.
"Yes, and I don't like it."
Sam and Mikaela started laughing right then and there when he had said that. Optimus really wasn't like this, this often. Because of his daughter Optimus had gotten more protective other the years. Of course they were going to have to go through the stage soon enough, but not in a long time…at least it will be a long time, but it would feel like time flew by so fast.
Then Breanna limped back in the room and exclaimed, "Alex wants to meet up with me! He asked me to go to the movies with him!"
All the Autobots were speechless including Optimus who was concentrating hard not to blow up. "Okay…" he answered so carefully not to yell.
"Thank you daddy!" she squealed.
She limped over and hugged her father's leg. When she did that it calmed him down a bit, but if she was going out he was going to keep an eye out on them…make sure he didn't put any of the moves on his daughter.
Alex is back! Yey! Along with that is an overprotective Optimus...fun. Please review! No flames please!
