Hey guys well here is the next chapter, I'm trying to get them up as quick as I possibly can to make up for the long waiting that you guys had to endure. Well here it is.
It was the middle of the night at the Autobots' base and Leia was having a nightmare. She was running away from this giant with horns on its head. There was fire everywhere and she was running with two other people. One of them grabbed her and placed her in a small space ship and then it launched. After she had left the planet it then exploded and right as it did she woke up. She was breathing hard and was drenched in a cold sweat. Hot Rod looked over at her and walked over to her.
"Hey are you ok?" he asked
"Yeah…I'm fine I just had a nightmare that's all." She replied as she laid back down
"You sure? Do you want to talk about it?" he asked her as he looked at her in concern
"No I'm fine I just need to get back to sleep, I don't even remember most of it anyway." She said rolling over onto her side
Hot Rod stared at her for a few minutes then shrugged his shoulder and went back to sleep. Leia laid on her side and stared at the wall for a few minutes before she finally went back to sleep. The next morning Hot Rod woke up and saw that Leia was still sleeping and quietly left the room to go find Optimus. After about 10 minutes of looking he finally found him and Sparkplug in the control room checking to see if there was any minicons waking up.
"Hey Sparkplug are you and Optimus busy?" he asked
"No not really why?"
"Because I need to talk to Optimus about Leia. And since he has trouble understanding what I say I figured you could translate for him."
"Sure."
Sparkplug then turned to Optimus and told him that Hot Rod needed to talk to him about Leia.
"What's wrong with Leia?" Optimus asked with concern is eyes and voice
"Nothing life threatening. It's just that well she's been having nightmares and won't talk to anyone about them."
"Well everyone has nightmares every once in a while. I don't see why Leia having any is a reason for concern." Optimus said after Sparkplug translated for him.
"Its just that every once in a while she'll have a nightmare and always she wakes up in a cold sweat. She never wants to talk about it and I'm starting to get concerned. You see Optimus I think the nightmares she's been having are memories from when she lost her family. And I've tried to talk to her about it but she never told me much."
"I can see why you're concerned, but what can I do?" asked Optimus
"Leia looks up to you a lot maybe you can get her to talk about her dreams. She needs to talk about them."
"I'll see what I can do."
"Thanks Optimus."
Meanwhile Leia just woke up and was walking out of her room rubbing her eyes when she bumped into Scavenger.
"Whoops, sorry Scavenger." She said
"Don't worry about it. Did you just wake up?" he asked
"Yeah, well I better go get something to eat I'll see ya later." She said and walked off to where the fridge was
Scavenger watched her walk off and thought,
I know Optimus doesn't want to tell her about her powers but if she uses them again in front of the Decepticons then I'm telling her.
And then he walked off to meet Hot Shot to start their training. Leia was in sitting eating a bowl of cereal when Smokescreen walked in. He looked down and saw her and said,
"Good thing that Optimus sent you to bed when he did otherwise you might still be sleeping." As he grinned down at her
"Very funny Smokescreen. I had a little trouble getting to sleep last night." She said as she ate
"Having nightmares?"
"Probably, I don't remember them though." She replied as she put her dishes away
Just then the Minicon alarm went off and they all went running to the control room to see where it was located. When they got there they saw that on the screen the Minicon was located somewhere on a shore by the ocean.
"Alright men lets move out." Said Optimus
"Hey Optimus, can I come and help you look for the minicon?" asked Leia
"Well I…" He began
"Please Optimus I promise that I'll find somewhere safe to hide if we run into any Decepticons."
"Alright, you can come." He said
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" asked Scavenger quietly
"We'll see. Hopefully nothing will happen." He replied
And they headed to the warp room. And warped to the coast. When they got there Leia and Hot Rod hopped out of Hot Shot and looked around
"By the looks of it I'd say that there aren't any people around for a good hundred miles. Which is good incase the Decepticons show up." She said
Just then a laser blast came out of nowhere and Hot Shot grabbed Leia and Hot Rod so that they wouldn't be hit.
"Well Optimus how nice to see you again. I've been looking foreword to breaking in the Star Saber." Said Megatron grinning maliciously
"Bring it on Megatron!" yelled Hot Shot glaring up at them
Starscream looked over at Hot Shot and noticed Leia in his hands.
Excellent that human is here. Now I can get Megatron the proof that he needs.
He thought as he grinned down at her. Hot Shot meanwhile set her and Hot Rod down behind some boulders and told them to stay hidden while they fought the Decepticons.
"Go get them Hot Shot!" Leia yelled as he left to go fight Sideways
She then turned to Hot Rod and said,
"Alright now lets go find that Minicon."
"Ok, hop on." Said Hot Rod as he transformed
Leia hopped on and they went in search of the minicon. Taking care to stay hidden like they had promised Optimus and Hot Shot they would. They had no idea that Starscream was in the air looking for them as well as for the minicon.
"Any sign of the minicon yet Hot Rod?" Leia asked as they walking up a path on the side of the cliff
"No not yet…wait! Look over there!" exclaimed Hot Rod
Leia looked and saw a green glow coming from just above them.
"Come on! We have to get it before some Decepticreep finds it." She said as she took off running towards it
When they got there they began to dig it out of the rock. They almost had it when Starscream appeared and landed right behind them.
"What a great day this is turning out to be. Not only do I get two minicons but I also get one of the Autobots' precious humans to use as a bargaining chip." He said as he walked towards them
Leia and Hot Rod grabbed the minicon and took off running away from him. They ran till they got to the edge of the cliff. They turned around and saw Starscream coming towards them.
"What are we going to do?" asked Hot Rod
"I'm thinking, I'm thinking…" she replied as they backed away
"Looks like you've run out of places to run." Starscream said maliciously as he walked towards them
Hot Shot looked up and saw that Leia and Hot Rod were in trouble and hollered to Smokescreen who was closer to them then any of the others were.
"Smokescreen! Leia and Hot Rod need help!" he said as he dodged one of Sideways laser shots
"Don't worry I'm on it!' he said and started running towards them
"Alright my little friends, time to see your new home." Starscream said as he reached down to pick them up
"Hey Starscream heads up!" Smokescreen yelled as he launched his hook at him hit him in the face
Starscream fell back towards Leia and Hot Rod, who ran in separate directions to try and escape being squished. Leia backed up towards the very edge of the cliff but the force of Starscream falling knocked her off into the ocean below.
"Oh no Leia!" yelled Smokescreen
All the Autobots turned to see her fall into the ocean. Leia was unconscious as she slowly sunk towards the bottom of the ocean. Then she opened her eyes and they were glowing light blue. She started spinning around creating a water funnel and began to rise towards the surface.
"I'm going in after her!" yelled Smokescreen as he ran towards the edge of the cliff but Starscream tackled him and prevented him from going to help her
Leia then came up out of the water and made the water funnel raise her up to the cliff where Starscream and Smokescreen were. They stared at her amazed at what they were seeing.
"Megatron! Quick look at the human!" Starscream yelled
Megatron and Optimus both looked up at them and were awestruck by what they saw. Leia landed on the cliff her eyes still glowing and the water was circling around her. She raised her arms and pointed them at Starscream and the water shot up and hit him in the face at such speed that it caused Starscream to let go of Smokescreen and stumble back a bit. When he looked down at Leia again he saw a huge boulder coming straight for his face and knocking him to the ground. Smokescreen stood up and got in his fighting stance ready for Starscream. But Megatron ordered the Decepticons to retreat. Leia's eyes then went back to normal and she fell to the ground unconscious. Hot Rod and the minicon that they found ran over to Leia to make sure that she was ok. The other Autobots came up to where they were to make sure that she was ok.
"How did she do that?" asked Hot Shot
"I don't know but we should get her back to the base to make sure that she's not hurt or anything." Said Optimus
Hot Rod picked her up and put her inside Hot Shot after he transformed. Scavenger then walked over to Optimus and whispered,
"You do realize that now you'll have to tell her."
"I know…" He replied then transformed and warped back to the base
