Chapter 2

Forgetfulness

The girl slowly opened her eyes. Her head throbbed as she stared at the ceiling. She turned over on her side, with much pain, to try to figure out where she was.

She found that she was laying on what must have been a huge silver table because it was surely to big for a bed. Shifting her gaze across the room she tried to focus her eyes on and big, blue and white metallic thingy, which, had it not moved, she would have thought was a statue.

The blue and white metallic 'thing' was standing with it's back to her. He was standing next to another one of the silver table/beds. On the bed laid another metallic creature. The yellow and red robot smiled back at her wondering eyes and gave and gave her a little wave with his hand.

This caught the attention of the other robot.

"Oh, good. You're awake. I'll go tell Alexis." The robot said in a monotone voice. Quietly the robot leaned over and whispered something to his companion in a voice so low that the girl could not hear. "Try not to scare her. Remember, she doesn't know who or what we are."

"Hey, no problem." The yellow one reassured him, giving him the thumbs up.

The blue robot just glared at his comrade for a moment with his solitary red eye before exiting the room, the massive doors closing behind him.

"How you doing?" The yellow robot asked, sliding off the metal table to come stand by hers.

The girl inched away, only wincing at finding how much it hurt to move.

"Hey, don't be afraid." The yellow robot reached out his hand to stop her from scooting away. "My name's Hot Shot. I'm a transformer from the planet Cybertron. What's your name?"

The girl shivered a little, fear showing in her eyes as she brought herself to speak to the gigantic metallic figure.

"Name?" She asked, truly perplexed by the question. "What's a name?" Hot Shot was taken aback by the question. "Uh." He said, scratching the back of his head. "A name is what people call you. Do you remember what yours is?"

She slowly shook her head, her long, blonde hair swishing back and forth on the metal surface.

"Hooh boy." Hot Shot sighed. "Maybe we should wait for Red Alert, he is the other robot that was in here.

"Yes." The girl continued. "What was he doing to you?"

"He was repairing a few dents, that's all." He shrugged as the big doors behind them hissed open.

The big blue robot that she had been informed was Red Alert came through with a girl, significantly smaller than her in age and height, which was riding in his hand. He set her down on the table and she ran over to her.

"Hi, my name's Alexis and this is Red Alert. How are you? Are you feeling much pain? I've been so worried. You were out for three days." The girl kneeled down beside her.

The blonde looked up at the brown haired girl and was again confused. "Pain? What is pain?"

"What?" Alexis couldn't believe what the girl had just asked her. "Don't you know what pain is?"

Hot Shot interfered with Alexis's question. "She doesn't remember her name either, so I doubt that she'll remember much else." He informed her.

Alexis bit her lower lip. "This is bad, real bad. What are we going to do now?" She asked herself. Though her thoughts stayed inside her, the robots in the room could guess what her expression meant. Calming herself as much as she could, she proceeded to answer the girl's question.

"Pain is another word for hurt. Do you know what hurt is?"

"Is that the sensation that I feel all over my body and that describes what I feel when I move?" She looked up at Alexis with the most innocent and unknowing eyes that showed that she truly must have been feeling pain.

Alexis sighed as she threw another blanket over the girl. "It probably is."

Alexis moved and began redressing the nasty cut that was on the girl's head. As she touched the girl's head the girl proclaimed.

"Why does your hand feel different than mine?"

"Hmm?" Alexis didn't understand what she meant.

"Yours is so.so.unlike mine. Unlike the rest of me. But your hand, and the 'blanket' feel the same. It is a nice feeling." The girl reached up and held Alexis's hand.

Her palm felt like ice and suddenly Alexis knew what she meant. "You mean that my hand is warm, and you are cold."

"Very, very cold." The girl shuddered. "There was white stuff all around me. I couldn't see straight. I hurt all over. I saw a green thing glowing and thought it would keep me warm, but I kept getting colder and colder. Then this giant red robot came and fell down beside me. My body may have shut down but my mind was still half working. I felt large tree roots coming up beneath me and I saw the ground and thought I was in a dream. Then I saw Hot Shot. He leapt up the catch me. And then, I don't remember much." The girl recollected.

Red Alert couldn't believe that the girl could remember all of that from when she was unconscious but she couldn't remember her name. In one of the few times in his life he was really puzzled.

Then a loud, earsplitting siren filled the air and the incident that had just been told was forgotten as the robots ran off, one yelling at Alexis to stay there. Then the girl decided that she was tired and drifted back off to sleep midst the confusion.
