I yawned and opened my eyes. It was so bright inside. Stupid light! I groaned and turned around, pulling the covers over my head. It had been a late night and I really needed my sleep. I knew that I needed to get out of bed and start on my new room, I needed to unpack and give everything a spot, but I was just TOO DAMN TIRED!
I'm never going to stay up late again.
"Phoebe, are you awake?" Darla's voice came from the other side of my door. "You have to get up or you won't sleep tonight… Phoebe?"
"I'm up!" I shouted from under the covers.
It was quiet for a while and I almost fell asleep, but then… "NOW!"
"Alright!" I shouted and shot up. "Woaw!" The first thing that happened when I sat up was my head falling to the right, making me fall out of bed and hit my head against the floor with a loud clang. "Darla!"
Darla quickly appeared through my new bedroom door and hurried to me. She helped me up and placed me on my bed as I held my head in place. Damn this thing was heavy!
"Are you alright?" She asked me.
"My head is heavy." I answered with a slight frown. "No wonder that this thing is giving me headache already… I think I got too much water in this thing after last night. What time is it? How long did I sleep? When did I even arrive home?!"
"Around quarter past four, I don't want you arriving back that late again, am I clear?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Good." Darla said with a nod before standing up. "It's almost two PM so get your butt out of bed and start unpacking. Elita One said she would come for a visit today so I suggest you get started. There is food for you to eat in the cabins and fridge and I'll be back tonight."
"What?" I asked as she walked out of my room. "Wh-Where are you going?"
"Thomas and I are going to discuss some things Optimus." Darla said. "Tom is already there, he got hired as one of the mechanics. The Autobots need to fix their weapons too, you know. Now I don't know how late it will get, but don't stay up too late and if there is anything wrong then we are just a phone call away, press one on the phone and it will contact you with base."
"I thought one was for foster care."
"Foster care has nothing to do with you anymore so they can stick our phone number up their ass." She quickly walked back to kiss my head before leaving. "Don't stay up too late!"
"I won't!" I shouted before I heard her walk down the stairs. When I heard the front door close, I let go of my head and fell back into my pillow thanks to the weight. "Well," I said to myself with a yawn. "If the head says I need sleep then I'll better listen!"
XxX
"Where is that damn thing?!" I had opened every damn box in my room, but I just couldn't find what I was looking for. I think I slept another hour after Darla left. The light just didn't want to leave me alone. "What the fuck?!"
With a growl I stomped out of my room and down the stairs. I had a good look around. The kitchen and living room were connected in a circle kind of way. We had a wooden floor and the walls were light Papaya Whip.
Yes, that is a color!
In the living room stood two dark green couches, a bookcase with a half open moving box next to it. A TV hung on the wall. I saw a PlayStation and DVD player together with a stereo. There was a dining table big enough for six and there was a bar where the kitchen started. There were a lot of windows, which let the light in, and there was a door to the backyard.
Everything was so empty…
"Nope, first food!" I told myself and headed towards the kitchen before I could unpack all the other boxes that were staring at me. I walked into the kitchen. It looked awesome! There was an oven, dishwasher, double refrigerator, sink with tap, a stove, microwave, coffee machine, water boiler, enough cabins to stack things for an army and a kitchen storage. The counters were brownish and there was a window in front of the sink and stove.
I looked out the window for a sec before I opened the fridge.
My mouth fell open…
One part of the refrigerator was filled with ENERGON BOTTLES! My eyes went wide and I grabbed four before opening the first one. I drowned half the gulp and I felt the energy drive me crazy already!
XxX
"IT'S OPEN!" I shouted when I heard a knock on the front door. I was too busy looking through the boxes in my room that I didn't want to go downstairs. "Where the fuck did I put it?"
I threw out the books and drawing at I dug deeper into the box. I pulled back and shoved the box upside down, but I still couldn't find what I was looking for! "That, no good son of a smooth bold needle prick bug ferret, where the hell did I put it?!"
I sprinted out my room and down the stairs with my bottle of Energon. I almost knocked somebody down the stairs, but I needed to find it!
"SQUISHY!"
I ignored Barricade's growl and headed toward the living room where I shook everything out of the nearest moving box. I took a sip from my energon before moving to the next box before turning that upside down as well
"Ratchet, what the frag is wrong with her now?"
I turned around for a quick second and saw Barricade and Ratchet watching me with confused faces. I waved, drank the rest of my energon, grabbed a new bottle and continued what I was doing.
"Static, what are you doing?"
"Did you know that there are seven different kind of badgers? I think that's a lot! They don't have a very good sight, but they have extremely good hear and smell senses. Did you know that there was a badger once that kept up with a jogger for 200 feet? Speaking of feet, did you know that 11% from the people are left-handed? 11%! I don't even know how to write with my left hand! Most lipsticks contain fish scales!" I couldn't stop talking the words just blurred out of my mouth. "Reindeers like bananas! I like bananas too, but noodles are better! Have you ever had noodles? Chicken noodles are the best, unless you like beef noodles. Do we have cup-a-noodles? We should have energon noodles! Did you know that we use the letter E the most in the English alphabet? We do. Poor Q, he get's left behind. Elvis's middle name was Aron. I knew a guy who was called Aaron, but he killed his brother and was banned from the country by his parents, no wait! That was a story in the bible. Why do parents give curfews? We only have twenty four hours in a day, which means we have one hundred and sixty-eight hours in a week which means we have six-hundred and seventy-two hours in a month, but some months have thirty-one days so you would need to add more hours to the year, which leads to eight-thousand seven-hundred and sixty hours, unless it's leap year then it's a day extra, which means we need to and another twenty-four hours, giving us eight-thousand seven-hundred and eighty-four hours! And teachers say I suck at math. Oh wait, but febuary has twenty-eight days so that should be minus two days… I should just stick to drawing."
I stopped to take a sip from my energon.
"Have you seen my book? I can't find my book! I need to write in my book! Have you seen my book, because I haven't seen it? It's pink with unicorns on it- PINK FLUFFY UNICORNS DANCING ON RAINBOWS!- Did you know that at the end of the rainbow there isn't any gold? Gold as in the gold that dragons love so much. Like in my book I got once! Have you read the Hobbit? I like it! Have you read the book? You need to read the book, but I can't find my book! Wait! I wasn't looking for that book! I was looking for my book. Have you seen my book? I can't find my book! It's green with carrots on it- no, it's not! It's black with orange polka dots- or just black? I know what it was! It was white! No blue! Like energon! Why is this energon purple? Energon is supposed to be blue! Can you make it green?! Grass is green! Unless you're color blink or a dog. Some dogs are blind! Bats can't see anything they use echoes to steer themselves. Macadamia nuts are toxic for dogs! Papa, can I have a puppy? I'll promise I'll take good care of it and feed it and play with it and walk with it and-"
"Phoebe, how many energon bottle have you had?"
"Twenty-three!" I beamed before I started running through the house. "I'm Slowpoke on rockets! Slowpoke, attack!"

Barricade's POV
"And who's idea was to give the girl energon?" I questioned as I looked at Ratchet's holoform.
"Don't look at me!" He snapped. "The sparkling needs energon to keep moving just like the rest of us."
"So you gave her a refrigerator full?" I cocked an eyebrow, as the humans called it, and crossed my arms over my chest. "She's a sparkling, Ratchet! If she can get something, she will take it."
"Don't use that creator tone with me, Cade." Ratchet growled at me. "The sparkling is old enough to know when-"
"I FOUND IT!" Phoebe suddenly screamed from upstairs. "POKÉMON GOT TO CATCH THEM ALL! FRAGGIT! IT WAS JUST A SNICKER BAR! PAPA, I CAN'T FIND MY BOOK! OH, I THINK I FINALLY FOUND MY LONG LOST HAMSTER!"
"Old enough, huh?"
"I'm going to weld her aft to the med bay sealing."
XxX
"I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it! I'll get it!" Phoebe said the moment there was a knock on the door. She raced downstairs, past Ratchet and I before almost ripping the front door from its hinges. "Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita! Elita, you HAVE to see my room. Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on!" She grabbed the new holoform with pink long hair and dragged her upstairs before any of us could blink.
"Is there something we missed?" Chromia stepped into the house with a confused look.
I pinched the bridge of my holoform nose and sighed. "Ratchet…" I started. "Decided it would be a good idea to fill the fridge with energon. Static has had over twenty bottles."
"Great idea, Ratchet!"
"If she could handle in on the mainland then she should have been able to handle it here too-"
"Static!"
"Jo ho, Jo ho a pirates life for me!" I rubbed my face when I heard the sparkling stumble down the stairs. "WEEEEEEEEEEE!" She shouted before running outside. "I got a jar of dirty, I got a jar of dirt, I got a jar of dirt and guess what's inside it!"
"Can't believe that that is your sparkling." Arcee laughed as she stood behind her sister. "She must be a lot like her mother."
"…Did you know what that bitch said to me?!"
Barricade rubbed his face and sighed before he placed his chin in his hand as he watched his girl have a fit over one of her collage classes. "No, what?" He mumbled from his spot at the bar in their small apartment they bought two months ago. He had been listening to her rambling for two hours already.
"She told me to get lost!" Cynthia threw her hands in the air as she paced from side to side. "The guts she has! If I ever see that woman again I'm going to beat her with a frying pan, chop her into bits, fry them, pour some kind of toxic goo over it and stuff it down her boyfriend's throat! Can you imagine her with a boyfriend?! She's paying him, I know she is! That slut is sleeping around with every guy on campus! She even posted a video on the internet and showed it on a big screen TV during lunch! LUNCH! If I would even dream of doing something like that, I would become the slut of the school, and not in a good way! The nerves on her! She is like a badger! People see her and go all 'Aw, look at her.' 'She's going so well in school.' 'She must be one of the brightest around.' 'Look at her hair, isn't it perfect?'. She is seven types of nasty! Whore, slut, bitch, tramp, smutbag, the Devil's wife…"
"Scrap?" Barricade suggested. This had been the second time this week his girl was growling. Maybe 'settling down' hadn't been their brightest idea.
"Yes!" She shouted. "I just can't believe that the university ever let her in! I'd bet that she slept with the guy who did her intake!"
Barricade shook his head and got up from the table so he could hug Cindy from behind. He wrapped his arms around her waist and placed his head on her shoulder before giving her neck a kiss. "Stop fueling yourself." He mumbled against her skin. She sighed and relaxed against him. "She's not worth it."
"Damn straight she isn't worth it!" Cindy snapped and tried to push Barricade off of her, but he only tightened his grip around her. "Cade, let me go!"
"Not until you let it go." He whispered and slowly started to kiss up her neck and jaw.
A soft moan escaped her lips, but growled less then two seconds later. "You're a jerk… I hate you."
The lack of heat behind her words had Barricade grinning. She was enjoying this; it would always calm her down. "I love you too."
"You and I need to get to the bedroom now!" She growled before snatching his wrist and dragging him to their bedroom. "You are going to make love to me all night and make sure that that bitch can see how it's done when I face her tomorrow." She turned around and grabbed his collar before kissing him with every passion in her. "I'm going… To make… That bitch… Jealous… Beyond compare." She mumbled between kisses before they stumbled on the mattress…
"Ironhide, put me down!"
Phoebe's screams filled the room and snapped me back. I hated flashbacks, but the sight of Phoebe hanging over Ironhide's massive holoform shoulder was amusing. She was kicking and screaming cursed as she slammed her fists against his back.
"Chromia called for back up." He huffed when he stood in front of us. "The gift is in my alt mode."
"Gift?!" Phoebe beamed. "What gift? You got me a gift? Why? What is it? Can I open it? My birthday is in February."
"Why is the sparkling talking like Blurr?"
"She had twenty-three bottles of energon."
"Twenty-four!" She corrected as Ironhide put her back down. She was about to sprint away again, but Ratchet grabbed her by her red hoodie. "Let me go! I want my gift!"
"You're not getting your gift until you clean up the mess you made." I huffed. I rolled my eyes when Phoebe dramatically dropped herself on the floor and the others looked at me with a stupid smirk, even Elita-One was giving me a look from her spot against the wall.
I was never going to hear the end of this.
