2015: Damn Dream Sequence Alert.

I was sound asleep at that early morning hour, only to be awakened by a
rude, but gentle, shaking of my body. I woke with a start as the words
being spoken finally hit home.

"Liane, wake up. It's me, Frank." came a male voice.

I rolled over and focused my blurred vision on him. If he hadn't
identified himself, I would have freaked. Closely followed by a scream and
a violent kick or punch to any handy body part that would put him down
instantly.

"Liane, I'm going to explain this carefully to you." he whispered.

I sat up and reached for my glasses, I was not in a good mood. I
switched on the light and glared at him before I asked, "Well? Start up on
'the 'Bots need your help' stuff, Frank. That is why you're here?"

"How did you..." he began.

I smiled and said, "Guess who visited me last night?"

He looked at me a moment, then gaped as the idea formed, "NOOO.."

"The Servabots. So, the Autobots need me? I should think so. I'm the
first person to contact or even see the REAL Tetra Reris."

"And to think, I thought you'd freak when I showed up with my now
not so surprising news." Frank said wryly, "So, you going to help or
what?"

I chuckled and said, "For the chance to meet HIM--you bet your retro
thrusters I'll help. Now, out with you. Let met get dressed."
Not minutes later we were passing through a doorway. I couldn't but make a
low whistle in appreciation at the size of the place.

"You need to be fitted for a suit like mine." Frank said, "Go in
here and Teletran-1 will do the rest."

"Could Telly do something other than white?" I asked knowing how
awful I looked in it.

"Guess you could ask." he replied.

"I'll be a few moments then." I said entering.

In five minutes I stepped out wearing a aquamarine blouse and jacket,
light blue slacks, white socks and blue shoes.

He showed me to some huge double doors, "Go in." Frank said, turning to
leave.

"Your not coming in with me?" I asked feeling vulnerable.

"Relax. The 'Bots only need to test you for Commander rank. Good
luck." he said and walked off.

I breathed in deeply, brought up my nerve and entered, "Excuse me,
but I believe my presence is required here." I pronounced loud enough to
supersede the conversation going on within.

I returned the gathered assessing gaze toward me to each individual in
turn as the names of the 'Bots sitting at the table mentally ran through
my head. I finally focused my full attention on the head of the table.
There sat Optimus Prime and by his side was Elita-One.

"Greetings Commander Elliot." Prime said standing up.

"Nothing personal, but cut the pleasantries and get to the point of
me being here." I growled, crossing my arms and glaring at him in utter
contempt for Elita was unfortunately functional.

"That is not way to talk to your host, lassie." Kup said evenly.

" After who I've seen, they are nothing to me." I replied.

"Who made you queen?" came a query from a 'Bot.

"The Servabots, or didn't you already know that?" I said smugly.

"Who are these Servabots?" he asked.

"So, you don't know about them after all. I thought that was why

Recorder came to my house. I've wasted your time then, I'll be off now." I
said turning.

"Just a minute there young lady." came Primes' terse tone.

"I have NOTHING to say to you and neither will Tetra Reris! So you
just go jump into a slag furnace!" I yelled and stormed out. I ran into
Frank and Dawn on the way.

"How did it.." Frank began.

"Sorry, I've got a rendezvous with more IMPORTANT and NEEDY people."
I said and ran off.

I headed for the doorway, then rushed through it upon hearing the whine of
engines and almost ran into Tetras' leg.

"You're late." she said.

"Sorry, the Autobots wanted my help and I told them off." I said.

"You what?" queried Wasp.

"I told Optimus to forget it. That we have nothing to say to him,
the bastard." I said.

"Liane." Tetra said warningly.

"Don't start on me Tetra. It's best this way. I don't want to put
you through the heartbreak, okay?" I said softening.

"Elita?" Tetra said frowning.

I nodded and stated, "Let's head for Mechanadron, there's a certain
'Con commander I wish to bitch out."

"You WOULDN'T." said Forge.

"She wouldn't dare fire upon me." I said, "Now, let's leave
before..." Frank and Dawn walk through the portal, I whispered some
expletives before stating, "Move, I want out of here before HE shows up.
No hard feelings Frank, Dawn, but you know how it is."

"Where will you go?" Dawn asked as the Servabots entered the ship.

"Where else? I have a planet to save you know." I remarked.

Just then Optimus walked through the portal, I entered the ship as the
doors closed. The ship lifted off, but hovered a moment.

"Tetra." I said warningly.

"Is that him?" she asked softly.

I joined her and said just as softly, "Yes. We'll come back someday.
Who knows, maybe you'll like the next Prime."

I awoke, turned over, and made it out of the mussed covers to my bed. It
was a dream, a justifiable one too. I was still very angry at Prime on the
inside for hurting Tetra the way he did. Some of my anger was also
directed at Elita. Now that it these feelings had made themselves known, I
would have to deal with it accordingly. 'Maybe Vixica would have some
input about this.' I thought. With that in mind, I managed to sleep a bit
more peacefully.
