Hey people, I'm back! Sorry I haven't updated. I haven't been feeling like writing lately. Anyway, I might be slow updating for a while because my dad accidentally broke my net book. So now I'm stuck using the schools net book. And if anyone has a school one, you know how crappy they are! Anyhoo, enjoy!

Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN NOTHING! Do I? I don't think so. Hmm, I'll have to check that out. In the meantime, ENJOY THY STORY!

Chapter 30:

The next few days went without a cinch. Annalise was moved into the girls corridors with the Arcee triplets, Jess, and Autumn. Not surprisingly, Mandy and Maggie moved into Ratchet and Jolts room. I really think it's only a matter of time before they spark mate. Mandy was never one to take it slow.

Barricade was constantly watched, and because so, he stayed in the med bay. I think Optimus trusted him, if only a little, but the others were weary of him. I honestly trusted him. It was cute how he seemed to protect Annalise. She refused to leave his side.

My guess is she's still freaked out by all that's happened and Barricade rescued her. He's probably her hero. Plus, the girl is so young! No older than Bee I wager.

The other girls and I try to help her anyway we can. She doesn't really like help though. The only one she really listens to out of the girls is me. Just like with the guys, she only listens to Barricade, Optimus, and Ratchet.

Right now, I was in the med bay with her and 'Cade. There was always at least one person in here with him. It was just my turn. If he tried to run, I could easily use my powers to stop him. I didn't think he would run though and I hated using them unless absolutely necessary.

"Are you alright here, Annalise?"I asked her.

She looked over at me and smiled shyly.

"Yeah, I like it better than the Decepticon base. Everyone here is so nice."She answered.

I nodded.

"We try to be. How about you Barricade. I know a lot of people here don't trust you."

He shrugged as if it was no big.

"Didn't expect them too. I just had to get her away from the decepticons. I knew what I was getting into. I don't understand why you trust me completely. Even your Prime is weary of me."He explained.

I shrugged.

"I don't know, I just have the feeling you wouldn't do anything, especially with her at risk. You know what I am right?"

He shook his head.

"Hmm, I thought you did. I'm Primus' incarnate. Trust me, if you weren't to be trusted, well, then I'd know."I explained.

He nodded.

"Makes sense. I had heard that you were more powerful than most bots out there. I shoulda know this was why."

"So, your really Primus' incarnate?"Annalise asked amazed.

I nodded.

"Yep, the one and only."

"Cool! My creators- err, parents, used to tell me stories about Primus. I've always wanted to meet him! Have you met him?"

I giggled at her enthusiasm. It reminded me so much of Sunfire.

"Yeah, I've met him. He's a great bot. I've also met Unicron."I answered.

Her optics became, if possibly, bigger.

"Really! Was he scary?"

I shrugged.

"Yeah, a little. But I think by time our battle was done, he was more scared of me. He was pretty easy to take down when I had Primus on my side."

"Cool!"

She giggled some more.

"Don't you think that's cool, 'Cadey?"She asked, looking up at the black and white mech.

He shrugged and his optics softened when he answered her.

"Yeah, it sounds great."

She giggled.

Ratchet came into the room then.

"Barricade, Optimus asked me to escort you to his office. He would like to ask you a few questions before officially giving you access to the base."He informed 'Cade.

The mech nodded before turning to Annalise.

"I'll see you later. Will you be alright alone for a little bit?"He asked her.

She nodded.

"I'll be fine."She said, though sounding a little unsure.

"Don't worry 'Cade, I'll watch her. Have fun with Optimus."I promised.

He nodded his thanks before following Ratchet out of the Med Bay. Annalise looked a little lost without him.

"Hey, you wanna go to the rec room?"I asked her.

She hesitated for a second before nodding.

"Cool, just follow me."

She did so as I lead the way to the room. When we arrived, the room was empty except from Bee and Sunfire. When Sunfire saw me, her optics lit up.

"Mommy!"She exclaimed before running towards me.

I giggled as my sparkling jumped into my arms.

"Hey sweetspark, having fun with me?"I asked.

She nodded.

"Bee is so much fun!"She said, before turning to Annalise. "Who is she?"

I smiled.

"This is Annalise. She's a new bot here."I explained, then I turned to Annalise. "Annalise, this is my daughter, Sunfire. And that's Bee."

I nodded towards the black and yellow mech who took that as his cue to walk over to us. Annalise smiled shyly at Bee.

"Hi."

"Hey there, pretty lady."Bee said through the radio.

Annalise giggled.

"Thanks. It's nice to meet you, Bee."She said, this time more confidently.

I smiled at the pair.

"I think Bee likes her, mommy."Sunfire whispered in my ear.

I giggled.

"I think you might be right, sweetspark."

The two continued to converse as they made their way to the couch. I think they both completely forgot I was there.

"Hmm, I think they'll both be ok for a little while. What do you think, Sunny?"I asked my daughter.

She nodded.

"Thought so. Common. Let's give them some peace. Let's go see if Autumn and Jess are outside."I said as I left the rec room.

It didn't take us long to find the two girls we were searching for. They were both by the beach, laying down and looking at the clouds.

"Mind if we join you?"I asked.

They both jumped and looked up, obviously not having heard us approach.

"Oh, hey Jenny, Sunny. When did you get here?"Jess asked.

I shrugged.

"Just now. Is it ok for us to join you?"I asked again, giggling slightly.

Jess and Autumn both nodded.

"How's the new girl?"Autumn asked me when I completely laid down.

"Good, actually. Better than you'd expect after losing so much and going through what she went through. She's with Bee right now though. It's kinda cute."I said.

"Aww."The girls chorused.

"They looked like they liked each other."Sunfire said, giggling madly.

I nodded in agreement.

"Definitely. Maybe Bee finally found his match. Now we just gotta Autumn here a match and it'll all be good!"I said, grinning.

Autumn stuck her tongue out at me.

"When the right mech comes, believe me, I'll know. Sides, I'm perfectly fine the way I am now."She said.

Everyone except her giggled.

"Alright. We get it."Jess said, smirking.

Autumn rolled her eyes.

"Wait till Sunfire starts dating!"She said, "Then we'll see who's laughing!'

"Ha, whoever tries to steal her spark will also have to deal with her protective daddy. I'd like to see them get past Prime."I said with a smirk.

Everyone started laughing hysterically. Sunfire just looked at us confused.

"What are you talking about mommy? What's dating?"Sunny asked, confused.

I giggled again.

"Nothing sweetspark. It's just something that adults do. You'll understand when your older."I told her.

She nodded in understanding.

"Oh. Okay."

I smiled at my daughter before turning back to the girls.

"I should probably check on Annalise and Bee. Think you guys can handle her for a little bit?"I asked while nodding to Sunny.

"Yeah, go on."Jess said, waving me away.

I thanked them, told Sunny to be good, and headed back inside. When I got into the rec room, the two bots were still sitting on the couch, watching TV. I thought it was the cutest thing ever.

"Hey guys, hows it going?" I asked.

I smiled when they both jumped.

"Oh, hi Jenny."Annalise said, smiling. "It going great. Bee is really nice. We were just talking about what Cybertronian might of been like before the war. We never got to see it."

"Ah shucks."Bee said through the radio. "Thank you. Thank you very much!"

I giggled.

"Well you guys seem to be having fun. Annalise, Optimus and 'Cade should be done now. You ready to head back to the med bay?"

Annalise jumped up when I mentioned Barricade.

"Yeah, I'm ready. You wanna come Bee?"She asked the young mech.

Bee looked surprised when she asked him. But he nodded excitedly.

"Great, let's go."I said.

They followed me through the base and towards the med bay. We didn't see a lot of soldiers as we walked. They were probably doing some training lesson. Who knows.

When we arrived, we saw that Barricade was back along with Optimus. I was a little confused on why he was here.

"Optimus, what's going on?"I asked.

He looked at me with a very serious face. I knew something bad was going on instantly.

"Optimus?"

He vented.

"Someone has betrayed us."He finally admitted.

Everyone who didn't know already gasped.

"What do you mean? Who betrayed us?"I asked, completely worried and looking around at everyone.

"I don't know. But until we do, I am putting this whole place on lock down. No one is aloud to leave or enter the base."He said.

Everyone exchanged looks.

"What happened Optimus? How do you know someone betrayed us?"I asked.

He vented again and shook his head.

"Because, I just got this message."He said, before pulling out a tape recorder and pushed the play button.

"Optimus Prime, I know you have young Annalise. My informant has told me everything. I have two of your best soldiers here, Sunstreaker and Sideswipe, and until you had over the girl, I will torture these two until the are killed. Your time is short. I have someone among you who works for me and if you try to attack us to get them, I will kill them immediately. Hurry Prime, these two do not have much longer."

When the messaged ended, he pushed stop. Everyone sat there in silence, not knowing what to do or say. I couldn't believe someone here actually betrayed us.

"How did they get Sunstreaker and Sideswipe?"I asked confused.

"Those two were on a secret mission. They were supposed to be collecting inside information. I guess whoever betrayed us told them everything."Optimus answered.

"Who would betray us though?"

"I don't know. Everyone needs to return to the rooms though. I must look into this more."He said, looking at everyone.

Everyone except for me, Annalise, Barricade, and Optimus left the room and went to their appointed rooms.

"What about 'Cade? He doesn't have a room yet."Annalise asked.

Optimus vented.

"You two can stay in here for now. Don't leave though. I'm going to have people patrol the hallways and I don't want any misunderstandings."

They both nodded and I followed Optimus out.

"I had Jess and Autumn take Sunfire back to our room. You should head there too."Optimus told me.

"No, I want to help. I'll probably be able to do more with my powers anyway."I said defiantly.

"I'd feel better if you were in our room. I don't know who this betrayer is or what they're capable of."He explained.

I shook my head.

"I'm probably stronger than them. Please, Optimus, let me help."I begged.

He shook his head.

"Please, just go to our room. You'll be safe."

I glared at him.

"I'm not helpless you know! I've defeated Unicron and several cons. I think I could handle myself against one little betrayer!"I said loudly.

He vented.

"I know your not helpless. I just want to make sure your safe. Please, stay in the room and keep an eye on Sunfire."

I continued to glare at him, feeling completely pissed. I can take care of myself.

"Fine. But I'm not happy about it."I snapped.

I turned around and stomped away.

"I'm sor-"He called out, but I interrupted him.

"No, I don't want to hear it. Just, go."I snapped again before continuing away.

I was pretty much boiling mad. I didn't need protecting. I could take care of myself! I had powers for Primus sake! I could probably take on any mech who tried to hurt me!

It pissed me off that my mate didn't trust me enough to let me handle this.

Energon tears prickled at my eyes as I approached my room. Sunfire was sitting on the couch waiting for me. When she saw me, she hopped up and ran over to me.

"Mommy, are you okay?"She asked as she hugged me.

"Yeah, sweetspark, I'll be fine."I said.

She didn't say anything though. I picked her up and carried her over to the couch.

"Daddy is going to be in late tonight. You want to watch a movie?"I asked her.

She nodded excitedly.

"Alright, what do you want to watch?"

"Aladdin!"She squealed.

I giggled at my daughter and wiped away the tears that were in my optics.

"Alright, let's do it."I said.

I put the movie in and relaxed as much as I could on the couch with my daughter. She needed me right now and even though I was on the verge of having a break down, Sunny came first.

But I had a feeling things were just going to get worse from here.

(Oh, Jenny and Optimus had a small fight! Are they going to make up or is their relationship going to struggle because of all this. Also, who's the betrayer? Are they going to save Sunstreaker and Sideswipe on time? Are Bee and Annalise going to be a couple? Only I know! But you will know soon if you continue to read! R&R!)
