Chapter 8
Hi! Been awhile I am SO sorry I've been working on this and life and OH GOD I am seriously thinking I need health insurance for my mental health (I might have it though who knows ; ) Call a shrink(wait I have a shrink!) So I'm BACK!! And kicking! (Hi-yah! heheehehehe no I am not going more insane... if thats possible)
Jetfire stood and stared at the new figure in the control room. Shadow was forced to just stare the best he can, being in alt form. Danni was continuing to look innocently and rightly confused. Jetfire put her up on the catwalk forgetting she can't see, still staring at the figure.
"Optimus? Sir?" Jetfire inquired curiously looking at him then at the newcomer.
"Alright everyone's here. Everyone meet our new recruit BlackStreaker." Optimus introduced, quietly noting Danni's risky position. BlackStreaker looked at everyone-Danni especially- his face plate hiding his warm smile. His sky blue optics stark against his black body, no other color seen. What scared everyone the most was he looked like Sideways except his head most resembled Jetfire's. Danni of course sadly could not see this and just heard everything.
"Hello, it's nice to meet all of you" Danni jerked hearing him talk, his deep, smooth yet cultured voice rumbled shyly in her skull because of her heightened hearing. She suddenly realized with a painful sting she had been forgotten like some object. Left wherever she was set by Jetfire, even Shadow wasn't there! Danni felt suddenly claustrophobic, helpless. Trapped as she moved on her hands and knees, she nearly cried out in frustration when she hit her head on something.
"My names Jetfire..." "...Scavenger" "Shadow" The names floated to her ears stating she was certainly forgotten. Suddenly her hand slipped and nothing was under her. Danni heard Alexis cry out having seen her fall. The other kids cries followed suit. Danni swung her arm up and caught the railing of the catwalk by sheer luck, however she suffered for it. A loud pop was heard by everyone and Danni lost her grip from pain as her shoulder dislocated. No sound came from Danni as she started to fall again. Someone caught her, but she never noticed for she passed out from the pain.
"Oh god is she going to be okay?!" Jetfire whispered as Red Alert scanned her over.
"She did pretty good this time dislocated shoulder, ripped tendons, some sinews...She's not in overly good shape. Though I don't blame her" Red Alert sighed. BlackStreaker looked concerned.
"Is she going to be alright?" BlackStreaker asked softly looking at her obviously pained face.
"Yes but I'll tell you all now she's going to be in a WHOLE lot of pain when she wakes up. I put the shoulder back but the muscles will be a slight problem."
"Why did she move off the catwalk? The wasn't very smart." Jetfire muttered forgetting to think. Danni tensed and groaned everyone jerked as her bandaged eyes looked towards him obviously upset.
"Jet...?"She trailed off as she lost consciousness again.
"Jetfire, you set her there without telling her. She's blind for the moment; she can't see where she's going. She was left alone. That's why she moved. She was scared probably" Optimus noted, he knew if he was helpless he wouldn't want to be alone.
"I...Realize my mistake" Jetfire sighed guilty. Hanging his head as the guilt weighed on him like a transformer ton. His spark heavy with regret.
"Think of it this way, when you stay still your wide awake and are in a darkened room. Its pitch black. What do you feel?" Jetfire couldn't think of any way to answer.
"What you feel is helpless and knowing you've been left alone...It all adds to a claustrophobic type of feeling" BlackStreaker whispered.
"She was afraid of being helpless so she moved. It's suffocating" BlackStreaker said softly understanding suddenly.
"I've been blind before, its...not pleasant" BlackStreaker added at the teams startled looks.
Danni tried to roll over and screamed in pain. That snapped her awake.
"God!" She couldn't say anymore, the pain literally took her breath away.
"Shhh, don't move" BlackStreaker whispered gently. His deep voice softening with worry.
"Who are you?" Danni wheezed. 'That voice is the newcomers I think' she mused.
"Danni, this is BlackStreaker. He caught you when you fell of the catwalk." Optimus answered her gently.
"Hi, BlackStreaker welcome to the team, thanks for catching me..." Danni greeted weakly she didn't bother looking around for obvious reasons. Then it hit her.
"Wait a minute" She managed to sit up, although painfully. She looked towards Optimus, or at least where she thought he was.
"I was on the CATWALK?!" Danni yelped.
"...Oh yeah she's afraid of heights." Jetfire muttered remembering. Danni smirked deciding to break her humor onto the newcomer.
"Its not the height I'm scared of, it's the falling and the sudden stop!" Danni joked. Red Alert shook his head as everyone laughed startled.
"Alright, Danni lay back down before the pain meds ware off. The rest of you, you can see her later she needs sleep." Red Alert chided Danni gave him an odd look, complying as she heard everyone file out. 'That newcomer's voice is so...different; it doesn't seem to match him. Well I haven't seen him so I have NO clue.' Danni mentally sighed going to sleep in the now becoming very familiar Medical ward.
Been awhile I know, I can type now so no worries! Please R&R I like to know if I'm doing the right things here that ya'll like! ; - )
