Chapter 9

Sue had come back inside; while Optimus and Mia constantly stared with such intensity at each other. Optimus seemed to be completely mesmerized by Mia; while Mia seemed to be enchanted with his holoform.

"Hey you two didn't anyone ever tell you that it's impolite to stare at people?" Sue asked with a snort of wild laughter.

"Oh, and that was like so unlady like, Sue." Mia retorted.

Sue put her hands onto her hips then.

"So, whoever said I was a lady?" Sue shot back with an evil cackle.

Silence came from Optimus then.

"My scans assure me you are most definitely of the female species here on this planet. You have the required bumps in the front of your top area; which are referred to as breasts. You also have what is commonly known as a vagina, should I proceed with more indicators, Sue?" Optimus asked.

Mia smirked, and then burst out into a fit of giggles; while Sue glared at her and then Optimus.

"Oh you two are impossible, honestly." Sue mumbled as she headed for the front door.

"Where are you going?" Mia asked.

"I have no idea to the store I guess and yes I am taking my bumps and vagina with me." she said with a snicker as she scooped up the keys and left.

Mia slowly glanced up at the Autobot commander; and was alarmed to see his optics had turned neon purple underlined with pink.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

Optimus never took his optics off of her then.

"Yes," he said as his hand slowly started to travel toward her face and moved toward her lips.

He seemed so enthralled by Mia's face; he was scared of humans that was true. There was a part of Optimus that wanted to trust once more; and Mia had proven to be at least partly trust worthy to him.

"Mia, you promise to stay loyal to me, correct?" Optimus asked her.

"I told you I did and would stay loyal to you always," Mia said softly as they suddenly both jumped at the sound of gunfire.

Optimus' optics widened in complete and utter fear; he hadn't been paying attention to anything and now someone was here for him.

"Cemetery Wind and Lockdown they have found me," Optimus replied in fear.

"No, I will not let them win; go start your engine I will slip out the back of the house." Mia instructed until they both heard a scream. "That sounded like Sue." Mia replied after Optimus' holoform had suddenly vanished.

"Come out, little girl; I've got your friend." Savoy ordered.

"I already told you she isn't home; are you deaf as well as ugly and stupid?" Sue demanded with a bitter tone.

"Your little friend lives all the way out in the boonies; and witnesses say she has a mysterious new truck. Well turns out that new truck of hers fits our target truck; and it belongs to us now hand it over!" Savoy demanded as Sue had screeched and kicked him in the privates.

"Mia run!" Sue yelled as Savoy back handed her in the face.

Savoy growled.

"You little tramp!" Savoy shouted.

Savoy hit Sue once more a little harder; but Sue fought back and kicked him right in his chest and groin area once more.

"Hope you weren't planning on reproducing anytime soon; although you bringing a child into the world with your attitude would be a crime." Sue snarled as she tried to run.

"Shoot her, take out your guns and shoot her!" Savoy yelled to his men.

Mia was safely inside of Optimus when she saw her best friend who was like a sister to her being gunned down by Cemetery Wind.

"Noooooooooooo Sue!" Mia screamed as she tried to open the door by Optimus refused to allow her to get out.

"No, I cannot allow you to leave," Optimus instructed.

"Please go back, please." Mia cried.

"I cannot go back, Mia; she is already offline." Optimus said as he took off like the devil was after him. "We have to save ourselves." Optimus said.

Mia just slid down into his seat in sobs; as all she could think of was what the hell was she thinking her best friend was dead now all because of Optimus Prime!
