Me: Glad to see the comments on my last chapter. I was gonna throw the Autobots in that one but figured not to.
Also, I'm not going to keep doing the "Earth, Location" thing anymore, it's getting kinda exhausting trying to do that. But instead, I'll do something different and a bit easier for me.
And to the person who asked me to have one of the Autobots sing to Abelia, well, I have a perfect moment where something happens you all will love. Now that I've said that, I'm glad my poll is getting looked at. Enjoy the chapter!
Vision or Dream - *Talking*
Cybertronian speaking - "Talking"
Comm Link Bot/Con/Human - "talking"
Decepticons
Frenzy crawled closer to the Cube, looking up at it with wonder and greed. Energy surged out and touched Frenzy, rebuilding his body. Frenzy was ecstatic, glad that he was no longer just a head and had his body back.
He had to let the others Decepticons know.
"All Spark located. Megatron is here as well," Frenzy commed, sending the coordinates. The answer was instant. Finally, Witwicky could get what's coming to her.
"This is Starscream: All Decepticons, mobilize." (Starscream)
Starscream called forth his holoform, looking at the puny humans walking around as he gave what he knew would be his last order. He knew the Decepticons would kill him if he didn't let Megatron be revived.
"Barricade en-route." (Barricade)
Barricade drove through the streets of the insect filled town he was in.
"Demolisher reporting..." (Demolisher)
Demolisher plowed down the fence as he drove off.
"Bonecrusher rolling..." (Bonecrusher)
Bonecrusher was at the same base Starscream was in, he drove past the towards the exit of the place.
"Blackout incoming... All hail Megatron!" (Blackout)
Blackout was in the air. He changed his flight course, turned to the direction that was sent.
Frenzy let out a little laugh, turning to look down a tunnel. Megatron needed to wake up and he knew just where the systems keeping him in stasis were.
He found the room and killed everyone there. Grinning, he pressed a couple of buttons, chuckling when the pressure was decreasing and Megatron was heating up.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Megatron! Megatron! Megatron! Oh! Megatron melting!"
Starscream flew, taking a matter of minutes to get to Hoover Dam. He went under the bridge, transforming and landing right on the bridge.
"Go! Go! Go! Move!"
Starscream merely glanced at them before aiming his missiles at the power lines of the base. People looked up as the lights flicked, knowing that wasn't good before running around.
Abelia & Company
Everyone paused in their run to the arms room as the lights flickered and thumping only could be described as footsteps were heard.
"They're here," Keller said, looking grim. Abelia whimpered, clutching tightly on Will's hand, terrified. The Decepticons were here and the Autobots weren't.
Banachek ran towards a small device. He pressed the black button, face expressionless.
"Banachek. What's going on," Banachek ordered the Technician to tell him.
"Well, the NBE-One hangar has lost power-"
"What," Banachek yelled, as what was said made everyone freeze. That meant Megatron was close to waking up.
"-and the backup generator is just not gonna cut it."
"If something doesn't happen soon-," Abelia trailing off.
"Come on, let's go," Will shouted, making the group snap into attention to continue their run. People were running around.
Banachek stopped for a moment, shouting an order of, "Get everyone to the NBE-One chamber now!"
"Move it! Move it! Let's go," Will yelled, following Simmons into a small tunnel.
Banachek took the lead, turning and looked back at them, "They're popping our generators!"
NBE-One Chamber
"16502. We're losing pressure," an Announcer yelled out.
"Stand by! Set," a Technician yelled.
"We're losing pressure! The cryogenic system is failing! We're losing NBE-One," the Announcer yelled out, provoking a panic within the workers, who ran around to prevent Megatron from waking up. But it was far too late.
Abelia & Company
"Forty-millimeter sabot rounds on that table," Simmons yelled out, grabbing his gun and starts putting bullets in it.
"That's good. Get all the ammo you got. Everything you can carry. Bring it," Will ordered, watching his men and S7 Agents filled up their guns and the jeeps with what they needed.
Feeling a tap on his shoulder, Will turned and saw Epps, who pointed something out behind him. Will turned and watched as Abelia opened the door and walked into the connecting room.
"Go. Take care of her. We got it here," Epps said. Will nodded his thanks and walked over to the door ABelia went through.
Abelia paced around in the room, hands in her hair. She could do this, she could do this, she could do this, she had to. The Decepticons were here, Autobots could be here any minute, she had Will and his team backing her up. She could get the Cube away from the Decepticons.
She just had to find out how to remove the GIANT CUBE from a room! HOW THE HECK WAS SHE GOING TO DO THAT!?
She started breathing heavily, her chest felt like it was constricting, it was getting harder to breathe. A panic attack. Could a panic attack be a side effect of losing Energon inside her body?
Breathing in gaps, Abelia fell to her knees, hands on her chest. Breath, she had to breathe. She was trying to hard to get her breathing under control she barely heard the door open.
"Abelia? Abelia!"
A door slammed opened and familiar hands were coming around her.
"Abelia! It's okay! I'm here! It's okay. It's okay," Will said, pulling Abelia to his chest, resting his head against his heart.
Coming aware of people watching from the doorway, Will glared at them, reaching out and grabbing something from a table and throwing it at them.
"Go away! This isn't a show! Shut the door!"
They listened, taking in the rage in Will's eyes. Will breathed, calming himself down. He had to help Abelia and he had to be calm to do so.
"Abelia, hey. I know you can here be. Breath in sync with my heartbeat. Follow the beat."
Abelia did hear him and hearing the calming heartbeat in her ear, slowed her breathing to match with the heartbeat. Minutes passed before Abelia was breathing normally again, but she didn't move.
"A panic attack. I had a panic attack," Abelia said.
"Did you ever have one before," Will asked.
Abelia shooked her head.
"No. Then again, I was never in a position to panic like this before. But it could be a side effect of me losing Energon."
"I don't know which one I would prefer."
"Me either. I got to call the Autobots."
"How are you gonna do that?"
Abelia reached up and pressed the Autobot symbol on her choker. Will watched, not really understanding what she was doing until a voice came from the choker around Abelia's neck.
"Abelia, we were getting worried. We haven't heard from you since last night." (Optimus)
"I'm fine, Optimus. Took a couple of hours to get to Hoover Dam. I didn't have a chance to call you. I met Will and his team. They've agreed to help us."
Optimus, that was the name of the Autobot Leader. Will let out a breath of disbelief, making Abelia grin up at him.
"You sure about that, youngling?" (Ironhide)
"As we said, they'll trust you. Trusting us is another thing." (Ratchet)
"How do yo' know dat they'll trust us?" (Jazz)
"Nothing against you!" (Bumblebee)
It was easy for Will to tell Optimus was the first voice he heard because Abelia said his name, Jazz because the way he talked, and Bumblebee was easy because of the radio voice. Ironhide and Ratchet he had no idea, but he was leaning on the gruff voice who called Abelia 'Youngling' to be Ironhide and the other Ratchet.
And Abelia was right about the Autobots thinking Will and his team didn't trust them.
Abelia laughed, "Well, why don't you ask Will himself? Will?"
Seeing that Abelia wanted him to speak, Will said the first thing that came to mind.
"Uh, hi?"
Abelia burst into laugher as Will blushed. Will could've sworn the Autobots were laughing as well, quieter through.
"That's the first thing you say, Will," Abelia teased.
Will rolled his eyes, "Yeah well, what else was I suppose to say? It was the first thing that came to mind."
Abelia shook her head. Will cleared his throat and spoke again, looking at the choker, which Abelia's fingered.
"As Abelia said, I'm Will. She told us about you. For the record, we do trust you," Will said.
There was a moment of silence on the other end before Optimus came through.
"You do?" (Optimus)
"You protected Abelia. You want to help her. I fully believe that Abelia doesn't trust some people easily, so her trusting you is good enough for me."
"I..don't know how to thank you." (Optimus)
"You already promised Abelia something. Make sure that happens. That's good enough."
"That I can do. We can do." (Optimus)
Will grinned but frowned as the lights flickered. Abelia gasped, looking around in alarm as thumps were heard.
"As much as I like you guy's talking, we've got a problem. The Decepticons are here no thanks to Frenzy, who is currently waking Megatron up. The Cube is also here, but it's so gigantic I have no idea how to move it."
"I knew one o' us should have gone wit' ya!" (Jazz)
"We're heading your way as fast as we can. (Ratchet)
"You won't get here in time. As it is, every minute is closer to Megatron waking up. And when he does, we can't be here and neither can the Cube," Abelia said.
Will frowned, "Abelia, your forgetting to mention something."
"What is she forgetting?" (Ironhide)
"She had a coughing fit after getting angry at Banachek for insulting you guy's and she just had a panic attack moments before she called you."
"ABELIA!" (Autobots)
Abelia flinched, pushing herself closer to Will who covered her with his arms.
"I'm sorry, but I didn't like the fact he insulted you with knowing you and I've never had a panic attack before."
"I'll go through my findings, but be careful. These are signs and the more they happen, the closer the coma is. Panic attacks are sometimes induced by stress. What's going right now must have caused one." (Ratchet)
"Everythings gonna be alright." (Bumblebee)
"I had a panic attack because I have no idea how to get the Cube out of here. It's big, bigger than any of you! How can I get the Cube out of here!? My plan to get it, get the Cube, and get out was a major fail," Abelia cried out, clutching Will's uniform.
"No, Abelia, your plan worked, but something things happen that change things. You just got to improve," Will said.
Abelia closed her eyes, believe her plan did fail and she had no way of fixing it. What can she do? This never happened to her before, she would have remembered it if it had. Abelia was pulled out of her thoughts when she heard a voice coming through the choker.
Only, it wasn't talking but singing.
Optimus-
I know your troubled story.
A tale that's full of sadness and woe, but I believe you'll smile again.
You see I know the pain you're feeling cause I was there just like you before.
And I know where it's leading.
Abelia gasped, eyes going wide. She reached up and touched the choker. Optimus did know; most newbie leaders always had doubt when they first start out. Optimus knows what it's like, and she just knows some of the Autobots do as well.
Optimus & Will-
Hold on (There's nothing standing in your way. You can-)
Be strong (So show the world what you can do and just-)
Walk on (Don't ever doubt the inner voice in you.)
Life's long (They'll live to see what you've become.)
Abelia looked up as Will joined Optimus in singing. Optimus would start and Will would continue. Will placed a hand on Abelia's chest, giving her a smile. He nodded at her, looking at her like she was something to protect like the Autobots did.
Will-
You feel like you're the outcast.
Sometimes it's better to be alone than to be with the bad crowd.
Preserve your mind and feed it, nourish what it is you have inside.
Use it in the right way.
With his other hand, Will grabbed Abelia's hand. Will closed his eyes like he was remembering something, Abelia guessing it had to do with his past. Will opened his eyes, bringing Abelia's hand up so she could see it as he closed her fist in a fist. She looked up at him in wonder.
Will & Optimus-
Hold on (There's nothing standing in your way. You can-)
Be strong (So show the world what you can do and just-)
Walk on (Don't ever doubt the inner voice in you.)
Life's long (They'll live to see what you've become.)
They switched, singing each other's parts. Abelia listened as they sang softly. Her inner voice, her spirit is what they're talking about. What could she become if she lives on?
They'll live to see what you've become!
Nothing standing in your way!
Show the world what you can do!
Don't doubt the voice that's in you! (They'll live to see what you've become!)
They'll live to see what you've become!
They sang together now. The man and the mech who cared about her within minutes. They were strengthening her. They believed in her. They knew she could become something great.
Nothing standing in your way!
Show the world what you can do!
Don't doubt the voice that's in you! (They'll live to see what you've become!)
They'll live to see what you've become!
Optimus, a leader from another planet. He'd seen many things in his long life, been in countless battles. But told her that her spirit was something he'd seen few times in his life as Autobot Leader. She will never forget those words.
Nothing standing in your way!
Show the world what you can do!
Don't doubt the voice that's in you!
They'll live to see what you've become!
And Will, he was a soldier, a human. He had every right to not believe that her voice was all in his head when they first met. But he didn't, he believed her and trusted her. He saw her as a soldier, but also saw her as a kid who needed someone there.
Nothing standing in your way!
Show the world what you can do!
Don't doubt the voice that's in you! (They'll live to see what you've become!)
They'll live to see what you've become!
Will protected her like she was a daughter and Optimus watched over her like a brother. Family, they saw her like family and she saw them like family too. This was her family, the Autobots and Will, and the soldiers. And she will not let her most wanted wish down.
Sniffing, Abelia looked up at Will, seeing his warm smile at her.
"Thank you, Will. Thank you, Optimus."
"Anytime, kiddo," Will said, moving to stand up and pulling Abelia with him, "But we got a Decepticon Leader waking up and a Cube to get out of here."
"Your welcome, Young One, but yes, Will is right. Abelia, talk to the Cube. It's sentient. Tell it what you need it to do and why and it will listen." (Optimus)
"Got it."
"We're gonna get the Cube out of here and get it to Mission City. Meet us in route," Will said.
Abelia blinked and saw white. She gasped and fell towards Will, who caught her. He opened his mouth to ask her what was wrong when he saw her eyes were glowing.
"Uh, you guys? Do you know why her eyes are glowing?"
"She's having a vision. Will, protect her. She's vulnerable to anything." (Ratchet)
Will nodded but realizing that they couldn't see him, he said, "Got it."
The lights flickered, making Will nervous. Knocking on the door made Will turn towards it as it opened, Epps popping his head in.
"Hey, it everything..."
Epps trailed off, seeing Abelia's glowing eyes. Will grew alarmed, looking over Epps's shoulder.
"Epps! The door! Don't let those Agents see," Will whispered harshly, covering Abelia's glowing eyes. Epps walked in and shut the door, allowing them privacy.
"Will," Epps questioned.
"It's a vision, that's what the Autobot's said," Will told his friend.
"Autobots," Epps said.
Will gestured to Abelia choker, "Her choker. The Autobots are talking to us both through it."
"Really?"
"Yep. Hey guys, mind saying hello to my friend, Epps?"
"Hello." (Optimus)
"Hi." (Ironhide)
"Greetings." (Ratchet)
"Hi, hi, hi!" (Bumblebee)
"Pleasure ta meet ya" (Jazz)
"Uh, cool," Epps said, "Hi, uh, Autobots."
"That was my reaction. Only, I just said 'hi'."
Epps snorted, "Of course."
Abelia let out a breath and shook her head, blinking the glow in her eyes fading. Will helped Abelia stand up, Epps lending a hand.
"What did you see, Abelia?" (Optimus)
"Mission City is attacked. Decepticons followed us and people die. We can't go there. There must be someplace else," Abelia said.
"Okay, we'll change it. We're going to go out now, people are waiting for us. Autobots, don't disconnect, but stay silent," Will said.
"We hear you." (Ironhide)
They exited the room. Abelia nodded at Will before making a beeline to Simmons. He seemed to have more reason than Banachek. However, all movement in the room stopped when the lights flickered more heavily than the last couple of times that was joined by a loud echoing bang.
Everyone stopped, looking up before slowly going back into it.
"You got to take me to the Cube," Abelia said, stopping in front of Simmons, he glanced up at her, "You have to take me to the Cube. I know what to do with the Cube."
"The Cube? It's confiscated," Simmons said, shaking his head.
Abelia narrowed her eyes, "Then unconfiscate it!"
"Do you know what you're going to do if we let you near this thing," Simmons exclaimed back at her.
"No! But I have to try! What else can we do? Wait for the Decepticons to take the Cube? You just wanna sit here and wait and see what happens? I told you what's going to happen!"
Simmons paused, looking up at her. Abelia Witwicky seemed so sure of herself. Whatever happened in the room with Will, he didn't know, but Abelia knew more then anyone about anything and if she could get the Cube someplace away from the Decepticons, beyond millions of lives could be saved.
"I have people's lives at stake here, young lady. Don't let me down."
Abelia grinned, thankful Simmons was listening to her. Simmons smiled back, turning to lead her out of the room and of course, Banachek intervened.
"Hold up! No! We aren't letting some teenage girl close to our Crown Jewel! No matter what she claims to know," Banachek shouted.
Abelia growled, masking the growl of the Autobots of their Cube being called someone's 'Jewel' and Abelia being denied. They weren't they to make them listen and they hated that.
But Will was.
"Take her to the Cube," Will growled, grabbing Banachek and shoving him against a jeep. Abelia gasped when a young-looking S7 Agent pointed his gun at Will. Will grabbed the handgun from his waist, pointing it at the S7 Agent with a look that clearly said: Don't even.
"Drop it," Will ordered, glaring at the Agent. One of Will's soldiers came up behind the Agent, pointing his gun at his head. Burke elbowed two Agents in the face, making them fall to the ground. Epps elbowed another Agent to the ground, pointing his gun at him.
Maggie, Keller, and Simmons watched with alarm and Glen, Abelia noted with a hidden grin, held his hands up in the air.
"Drop your weapon, soldier," Banachek ordered, "There's an alien war going on our planet and you're gonna shoot me!?"
"You know, we didn't ask to be here," Lennox glared at him, "Not for you. We're here because we chose to come here. For her. For Abelia."
Banachek tossed Abelia a look, "Her? A child?"
"This child saved my life during the Qatar base attack and the second attack. Right now, she's our only hope and your throwing that away. I'm not listening to you. Not of us are."
"I'm ordering you under S7 executive jurisdiction," Banachek said.
"S7 doesn't exist," Epps quipped, looking at Banachek
"Right. And we don't take orders from people that don't exist," Will slyly grinned.
"I'm gonna count to five," Banachek said.
"Well, I'm gonna count to three," Will said, moving the gun to Banachek's heart, "Mm?"
Banachek froze, seeing that Will was serious and that he would shoot. Abelia looked at the nervous-looking S7 Agents and realized something and laughed.
"Here's something for ya," Abelia started, "Will and his team have killed before, they know how to pull the trigger. Your Agents, it seems, never pulled that trigger besides in training, least of all at a person. Who do you think is gonna win?"
Banachek glared at Abelia, who just gave him a mock sweet smile.
"Banachek," Keller said.
"Yes, sir?"
"I'd do what he says. Losing's really not an option for these guys. Plus, Abelia is right and so it Captain Lennox."
Banachek, seeing that he was outnumbered, looked back at Will.
"All right. Okay. Hey, you want to lay the fate of the world on a teenage girl? Fine. Go ahead."
Will pulled his gun away, turning to look at Abelia. Abelia smiled and nodded at him before turning to look at Simmons.
"Anyone who wants to come, come along. Simmons, take me to the All Spark."
All Spark Chamber
Abelia stood on the platform, the only thing closest to the Cube, close enough to touch. She took a deep breath, looking down at the group watching her below. Workers also watched her, waiting to know what she was going to do.
Will smiled at her, giving her a nod. Abelia smiled back.
"You can do it, Abelia." (Optimus)
"Believe in yourself." (Ironhide)
"Count on yourself." (Ratchet)
"I know yo' can do it!" (Jazz)
"You can...succeed!" (Bumblebee)
Abelia nodded and took the last couple of steps to the All Spark. Raising her hands, she muttered a quiet, "please listen to me". She placed her hands on the Cube.
Energy surged out, making the hair on his arms stand up. Energy surged around her, making her hair move back, she was sure the bangs covering her one eye were blown up.
Abelia could feel the power of the Cube. It was raw, it was wild, its energy was flowing around her. It was checking her out, it was judging her, wanting to know why she was touching it, what she wanted with it. Optimus was right, it did have a mind of its own.
"All Spark, I need to get you out of here. Decepticons are coming and they want to use you for evil purposes," Abelia spoke to it.
Energy reached out, touching her face, her head, her chest, her mind, her heart. It was seeing if she was telling the truth.
"Please, let me get you out of here. I will not let you be used for destruction by those with evil purposes when you're supposed to be used for life. I'll die before I let that happen."
The All Spark sparked with energy before it called back the energy flowing around Abelia. Abelia watched as the All Spark turned its power to itself.
"Ah, okay, here we go. It's doing something. It's doing something," Epps said, stepping towards Will.
"Whoo. Oh my God," Abelia said in awe.
Abelia watched as small squares appeared in a grid on the All Spark for a second before disappearing. Then, from one corner right to Abelia, the All Spark shifted smaller and smaller until Abelia could carry it with her hands.
She pulled it to her, pulling her hand back when it shocked her. Abelia waited a second before putting her hand on it. Nodding she walked down the steps.
"Guy's, I got it," Abelia to the Autobots.
"Great job. Now get out there." (Ironhide)
"Got it. Go silent."
Abelia pressed the Autobot symbol on her choker, ending the communication. She walked up to Will, letting him brush her hair back into place.
"Message from the Starfleet, Will. Let's get to it," Abelia said, turning serious despite the victory at getting the All Spark.
Will nodded, looking around at everyone else, "She's right. We stay here, we're screwed with Megatron in the other hangar. Simmons said there's an abandoned city is twenty-two miles away, the opposite direction of Mission City. We're gonna sneak that Cube out of here and we're gonna hide it somewhere in the abandoned city."
"The Autobots will meet us on the way there," Abelia said, "We're gonna need all the help we can get."
"Good! Right," Keller said, pointing at Will.
"But we cannot make a stand without the Air Force," Will said, putting his foot down at that.
Abelia nodded, "He's right. The Autobots are all vehicle based, more of a ground type. The Decepticons mostly have jets and choppers, flying based. The Air Force is most needed. Few Autobots can fly and they are not on Earth."
Keller turned to Simmons.
"This place must have some kind of radio link!"
"Yes!"
"Shortwave, CB!"
"Right! Yes!"
"Sir, you got to figure out some way to get the word out to them," Will said to Keller before grabbing Abelia's arm, pulling her towards a jeep, "Let's move!"
Soldiers ran to their vehicles, getting into them. Abelia raised a hand to the Autobot Symbol on her neck.
"You guy's heard that," Abelia asked.
"Yes, Abelia, we did. We r' headin' dat way. We should meet yo' at a turnin' point if yo' leave naw." (Jazz)
Looking around, Abelia noted that Banachek was ordering the workers to leave as soon as possible. Guess he wasn't much of an idiot. Turning her gaze, Abelia watched as Simmons and Keller spoke.
"In the alien archive, sir!"
"The alien archive-" Keller echoed, confused.
"There's an old army radio console."
"Will it work?"
"I don't k- Anything's possible! Did you see that? Poof!"
Abelia laughed as Simmons gestured back to where the Cube used to be before using his hands to mimic the shrinking. Will opened the back door of the jeep.
"All right, Abelia, get it in the jeep," She got into the back, Will got into the passenger seat, and Epps got into the driver's seat. Will still was shouting orders, "Mister Secretary! Get our birds in the air. When we get to the city, we're gonna find a radio, and I'll have Epps vector them in, okay!"
"Affirmative," Keller yelled. He, Glen, and Maggie followed Simmons down a smaller tunnel, probably to where they needed to go.
"Epps, go, go, go," Will said as Epps started the jeep and drove down the tunnel, the rest of the men following.
It was a tense couple of minutes as they drove in the tunnels before they hit daylight. Abelia breathed out a sigh as they got further away from the base.
"Hey, Autobots, still there? Were out," Will spoke, looking back at Abelia.
"We are. There's great. Like we told Abelia, there's a turning point where we'll meet up." (Ratchet)
"Don't shoot!" (Bumblebee)
Abelia smirked, "They won't shoot you, Bee. I'll get mad if they do."
"Be careful. Decepticons might try and follow you." (Optimus)
Abelia opened her mouth to speak, but that is when a vision decided to pay a visit. Clutching the Cube tighter, Abelia was swipe away.
Will turned to check on her but seeing she was having a vision, only reached out and grabbed her wrist.
"She's having another vision. Does she normally get them back-to-back," Will asked. Epps looked into the rearview mirror, seeing Abelia's eye's glowing
"Kinda freaky, the way she just goes expressionless like that," Epps commented, looking back at the road.
"I suppose to humans it can be a little 'freaky'. But yes, Seers sometimes do get visions right after another one." (Optimus)
Vision
Abelia was inside a body. She could feel the cold all around her. She saw a familiar hanger, one she was in only about an hour ago.
Megatron's Hanger. And from the height of everything, she was in.
Oh crap. No. No. No.
But it was true, she was inside Megatron's head in the present time. She didn't want him to know about her so she stayed silent, despite she was screaming. If he heard that, she hoped he thought it would be from the people running away from him.
He could hear them. He probably heard everything. That meant he heard her talk about the Autobots. Double crap.
"Warning! NBE One cryo-tainment failing."
"Check that backup system!"
"The cryo's failing! You got to bump up the cryo! The cryo's failing!"
"Come on! Get out of here!"
"Heads up! Look out!"
"Up there! Let's go!"
Megatron moved! He growled, annoyed as he broke the ice and the cables that were holding him up off. He looked around, Abelia noted with horror, at the humans tunning away from him.
"I am...," Abelia shivered, hearing Megatron's voice startling her, Megatron brought out a weapon, something attached to some chains, "Megatron!"
Abelia watched with wide eyes as Megatron swung, killing the people who were unfortunately in the weapon's path. She watched as Megatron destroyed what he could of the hanger he was kept in for years.
"Look out! Look out!"
"Pour it on him!"
Megatron growled as some S7 Agents tried freezing him again. Megatron jumped up, transformed, turning into a jet and flying out of the hanger and into the open world.
Megatron transformed and landed on the walkway that Abelia and everyone else walked to enter Hoover Dam. Another Decepticon landed not too far away, looking at Megatron.
"I live to serve you, Lord Megatron," that Decepticon said.
"Where is the Cube," Megatron growled, clutching his sharp fingers together.
"The humans have taken it," the Decepticon said, gesturing in a direction and led away from Hoover Dam.
Megatron growled deeper than the previous times he growled, Abelia barely keeping herself silent form making a noise. Megatron wasn't happy about that.
"You fail me yet again, Starscream," Megatron sharply turned to Starscream, the other Decepticon, "Get them!"
Leave. She had to leave. She had to go. She wanted to go right now.
Her vision went white, taking her out of there.
In The Jeep
Abelia shot up with a finally realized scream, knocking the Cube to the floor. Breathing heavily, she noted Will's hand on her wrist. Abelia grabbed at the wrist, breathing heavily.
She heard Epps talking to the others, who heard Abelia's scream and radioed if she was alright, that she was okay, just having a small vision.
The Autobots were talking over each other, asking her what was wrong, what did she see.
"Go faster. Now," Abelia said, "Megatron's up. I was just in his head, but I don't think he knew I was there."
Seeing why Abelia screamed, Epps and Will glanced at each other and nodded. Epps grabbed the radio on his shoulder, speaking into it.
"Guy's were going faster, Megatron is most likely up by now."
Abelia looked down, grabbing the Cube.
"Cube's okay," Abelia placed the Cube on the seat next to her. Abelia sighed, grabbing her head, shaking it.
"That was scary. Being in his head. I had to stay quiet even as he destroyed the hanger in was in. Not everyone made it out. He just started killing the moment he woke up."
"You did the smart and brave thing to stay quiet," Will said.
"He's right. Megatron would want you dead the moment he discovered you were a Seer." (Optimus)
Abelia smiled, "Thank you."
Will chuckled, making Abelia look at him with an eyebrow raised. Will shook his head at Abelia, "Well, it's just that- Your parents basically said you not nothing, right? Well, to me, you are something. More than that. The Autobots saw you worth protecting, and so do I. You survived your parents not being there and became this young powerful teen. And through this hour, I saw more than enough that we were right."
Will gave her another smile before turning in his seat, checking his gun.
Abelia looked out the window, watching everything go by. She smiled. She turned, looking at the Cube. She placed a hand on it, rubbing the surface of the Cube. She placed her head on the Cube and closed her eyes. Not able to help herself, she started to sing.
No one never made me feel as small as you did.
No one made me feel as cursed.
I'd lie awake in bed just staring at the ceiling, wondering if things would get worst.
Epps paused in talking to the other soldiers as Abelia sang, allowing the rest to hear her. Will paused in checking his gun to look at her. The Autobots were silent, listening to their friend sing.
I was trapped under your thump, believing when you called it love.
Abelia opened her eyes, looking at Epps and Will, smiling and fingering her choker.
But I will forgive myself and start to let it go.
Accept that who you chose to be was out of my control.
And though it might be hard to begin again.
I'll write myself a brand new story with a happy end.
Abelia looked out the window, smiling slightly. Her parents became distant on their own choice and Abelia will not let her heart become shielded from love from those around. She will not become cold and distant as they did. Abelia's story as a girl all alone ended and this Abelia's story with people who care has only just begun.
I survived so tonight I am taking back my life.
And I'll show you that I am not nothing.
Abelia's face lite up when she saw familiar forms of the Autobots come around a corner, right at the turning point. Grinning, Abelia stood up in her seat, and since the jeep had an open-top, her upper body showed out of it.
I kept my head above the water 'till the moment.
When all the elements aligned.
And I could fly away to heal my broken spirit and leave my demons far behind.
Optimus hocked his horn as they pasted before he sharply turned. Abelia and the soldiers watched as all the Autobots turned and joined in the line, each car filled with humans having an Autobot in front and the back. Abelia held her hands up, waving at the Autobots wildly, who all hocked their horns in response.
You always said that I was weak, but the bravest thing I did was leave.
Abelia looked at her friends, Bumblebee in front of them, Jazz behind them, Ratchet was behind the other jeep, and Ironhide and Optimus were behind the last one. She was so glad she chose to leave home.
So I will forgive myself and start to let it go.
Accept that who you chose to be was out of my control.
And though it might be hard to begin again.
I write myself a brand new story with a happy end.
Abelia jumped up, sitting on the jeep roof, locking her legs in the jeep so she wouldn't fall. She waved at the soldier manning the machine gun on the jeep behind them. The soldier waved back, making Abelia grin. She looked at her Autobots friends; they deserved a happy ending for once.
I survived, so tonight I am taking back my life.
And I'll show you that I am not nothing.
Abelia looked at her hands and then down at the Cube. She looked back at her hands and made them into fists, clutching them tightly.
Looking up at the sky, I think I see the start of a sunrise.
Abelia looked up when the sun peaked out from behind the clouds.
And I will forgive myself and start to let it go.
Accept that who you chose to be was out of my control.
And though it might be hard to begin again.
I'll write myself a brand new story with a happy end.
Abelia closed her eyes, letting the sunlight hit her face. She brought her head down and turned, looking at the soldiers and Autobots who were all listening. She raised a fist in the air and ao one, the Autobots and the soldier hocked their horns. Abelia clapping, smiling widely and she saw many smiles on the soldiers she could see and just knew the Autobots were smiling.
I survived, so tonight, I am taking back my life.
And I'll show you that I am not nothing.
I'll show you that I am not nothing.
She waved one last time at the soldiers and Autobots before locking her legs. Abelia carefully pulled herself back into the jeep, sitting down. She looked up at Epps and Will, smiling at them.
"Damn, kid. You sing good," Epps said.
Abelia laughed, the soldiers and Autobots listening in laughed as well. Will looked at Epps with a raised eyebrow.
"Good? Abelia sings better than that. If that's your definition of 'good', then it's bad," Will said.
Epps glanced at his friend, "Okay, maybe it does. But what do you call Abelia's singing?"
Will smirked, "Goddess."
Abelia blushed, "WILL!"
"It's true!"
Everyone laughed, Abelia couldn't help join in. Here they were probably being chased by Decepticons, heading to an abandoned city to a fight they might die. But this felt good, the laughing before the fight.
"I thought you said your wife Sarah had Goddess singing," Epps teased.
Will rolled his eyes, "They both do."
Abelia giggled, reaching out to pull the Cube towards her. However, as soon as she touched it, it shocked her, making her let out a small yelp.
"You okay," Will asked.
"Yeah, the All Spark just shocked me," Abelia said, touching the All Spark again and nothing happened.
"Here we...are now!" (Bumblebee)
They all looked up. The city was in their sights. Abelia breathed out a sigh as everyone braced themselves. The fight was going to happen.
Abelia let out a breath, pulling the All Spark close to her.
It was almost time for the battle, and Abelia knew only a few things.
She won't let the soldiers die.
She won't let Epps and Will die.
She won't let the Autobots die.
She won't let Optimus sacrifice himself.
She won't let the Decepticons get their hands on the Cube.
She will die, making sure that didn't happen.
As Abelia swore these things to herself, she missed the All Spark softly glowing at Abelia's desire to protect those around her and who she cares about, even to lay down her own life to do so.
It liked that.
When Optimus said the All Spark was sentient, he wasn't kidding. How else was it going to choose its Vessels? It not only read their minds but their sparks, their souls and their desires. The more selfless the desire, the more likely that person would be chosen. It has been close to a Millenium since it picked a Vessel, the war clouding desires and the Autobots trying so hard to protect it.
But this strange girl, her drive. It hasn't felt that for a long time. She would make a great Vessel. But not yet. The girl had to voice it. Had to voice her drive and once she did, it would be ready.
Ready to claim a new Vessel of the All Spark.
Me: So, did anyone like it?
Simmons was kinda a jerk in the beginning, but he was better in the second movie, so I decided to make him nice. Meanwhile, Banachek shows up just in the first movie, and I needed someone to be a jerk, so, he took it.
And since Abelia saw Frenzy, there were a few extra minutes then in the movie.
The song Optimus and Will sang was "Tom Robertson - What You've Become" and Abelia sang "Beth Crowley - I Am Not Nothing".
I hope you guy's liked the chapter and the poll will end when I post the next chapter so if you didn't vote, go ahead and do so!
