Hey guys! So is the story getting interesting yet? Well, I hope it's been interesting! Anyway, this is leading up to the third movie. After the third movie is over, I might do a chapter or two after wards before I end it for good. Unless they do make a fourth movie, then I'll come back to this and write that movie! Anyhoo, rambling here, enjoy the next chapter!
HAPPY APRIL FOOLS DAY! Hope this throws you for a loop! Or not... who knows?
Disclaimer: Tell me, do you really think an insignificant human femme could own something as amazing as Transformers? I didn't think so. So, I officially disclaim this!
Chapter 34:
(Annalise's POV)
To say I was scared would be an understatement. I mean, I couldn't believe Jenny was in the hands of those Decepticons. I remember how cruel they were. Jenny is such a nice femme too! She saved my life and helped me feel comfortable here. She also helped me get over my families death.
Though I still feel depressed about the whole thing. Without Jenny, Barricade, and sweet Bumblebee, I don't think I would have ever gotten over my parents death.
Bee is really helpful. He listens anytime I need to talk and he's always there when I need a shoulder to cry on. I heard he's the youngest one here, which I could believe because he's so innocent. But I'm young too, probably younger than him. He's seen more of this rancid war than I have.
Barricade has become like my older brother. He's always there for me and he's overprotective. Bee is the only other mech he allows around me. He's even weary about having Optimus Prime around me. It's really sweet, but kind of annoying. Autumn is helping with distracting him though. I think they've really hit it off.
They'd make such a cute couple though! Maybe one day Bee and I could be a couple. I think I would like that. Every time I'm around him, my spark skips a beat and there's a fluttering sensation in my stomach. Does that mean I like him? I think so, but the real question is whether or not he likes me.
Maybe I could ask one of the other femmes around the base for their advice. I know most of them have a mate. I heard Ratchet, the medic, and Mandy, his medic-in-training, were a thing. Then there was Jolt and Maggie, both were also medics-in-training, who were together. Jessica and Jazz, Ironhide and Chromia, and of course Jenny and Optimus were other couples.
So even though Jenny was currently unavailable and Optimus probably would rest until he found here, I'd have to ask someone else.
Currently I was walking aimlessly through the base. I really had nothing to do. Almost everyone was working on a plan to get Jenny back and no one thought I was experienced enough, or had enough training to be involved. I hated that fact because I wanted to help find my friend too.
I was so bored out of my mind that I finally decided to just go to the Recreation Room and watch some TV. When I made it there, it was empty just like I expected it to.
I sighed and sat on the couch, grabbing the remote and flipping the TV on as I did so. There wasn't anything on though, mostly just old news reports and some soap operas that I had no interest in. We really needed better cable in here.
Finally I just settled on the news, hoping something interesting would be on the news. Most of the stuff they talked about was depressing, like this person was kidnapped or this person was murdered. It was sad, but I just wasn't interested in more bad news.
I got up from the couch and left the Rec room, not even bothering to turn the TV off. It's not like we paid the cable bill, the government did that.
I walked out into the hallway and towards my room. Maybe I could get some recharge until there was something better to do.
I went to turn the corner and slammed right into someone, making me fall on my butt.
"Ow."I groaned as I looked up to see who I crashed into.
I was surprised to see Bee standing in front of me, looking at me sheepishly. He offered me a hand as he commed me.
"I'm sorry."He said over the com.
I smiled.
"It's alright, I wasn't hurt, much."I said, shrugging it off.
He smiled back and gestured to where I was going.
"Do you want me to accompany you to wherever you're going? I have nothing to do right now?"He asked me.
I shrugged.
"Well, I was heading to my room, but if you want to hang out, we could do something together. I'm bored as ever right now."
He nodded enthusiastically.
"Sounds like a date."He said as he offered me his arm. "What would you like too do?"
I blushed as I accepted his arm.
"Well, uh, I don't really know. I'm up for anything though."
He then smiled slyly.
"I know just the thing then! Follow me!"
I giggled as I allowed him to pull me to wherever he wanted to go. I knew wherever it was, I was going to have lots of fun.
(Jenny's POV)
I groaned in pain as my optics finally starting onlining once more. The room was blurry as I waited for my optics to adjust to the brightness of the room. When it did, I looked around. No one else was in here, which meant I was left alone, for now.
I accessed my body for any damages. Some of my armor had been taken off completely, I had plenty of minor scratches and cut wires all over my body, and I was low on Energon. My pain receptors were currently off, which is the only reason was I was writhing in pain right now.
Nonetheless, I felt too weak to move. Scalpel sure did a number on me. I can still feel the tiny legs scratching my armor as he walked across me, inflicting pain while muttering about how he should torture, not kill.
It was awful! I swear, if I live, I'll never be the same.
I vented as I waited for whatever was going to happen next. I shrunk into my seat when I heard the door slid open. When I saw who it was, I sighed in relief. It was just First Aid.
"Hey First Aid."I said weakly.
He looked me over sadly.
"What did those cons do to you?"He asked, shaking his head.
I shrugged halfheartedly.
"A little bit of everything I suppose. Some cutting, some injecting, serious pain."I answered, my voice cracking.
First Aid sighed as he went over to a cabinet and got out a medical kit. Then he walked back over to me and got some medical stuff out of it.
"I'm supposed to repair your injuries. Elita wants you completely whole again so she can torture you herself."He said, rolling his optics.
"Fun."I said sarcastically. "Guess I don't have long then."
First Aid vented.
"I wish there was a way to get you out of here. You die and so does Optimus Prime."
I looked at him confused.
"What do you mean?"
"Shouldn't you know?"He asked surprised.
I shook my head.
"I was born human, remember. I don't really know much about Cybertronian stuff. If I get out of here, I should really talk to Ratchet about that."I answered.
"Well, when a sparkmate dies, the pain is usually so intense that the other usually ends up committing suicide. Either that or the become so angry that they attack ruthlessly and without caution for revenge. Their usually killed in battle because their so blinded by their rage."He explained.
I sighed. Great. Now my sparkmate is also in danger. I really got to think these things through. If I had any idea this would happen, I would've been more weary about giving myself up. I'm sure, with me being the most powerful Cybertronian in existence, I could've found some other way rather than giving myself up.
"I really need to get out of here then. Optimus and my sparkling need me."I exclaimed as I pulled on the stupid straps.
"You won't be able to get out of those. I told you, their very strong."First Aid explained as he reattached another wire. "Now hold still while I fix the rest of these wires."
I groaned as I did as I was told.
"There has to be something I can do! I mean, I've gotten out of these before. Well, ones like these, these are just a little stronger."
~Concentrate, little one, you know what you have to do.~
I jumped, not expecting Primus to talk to me. First Aid looked at me.
"You ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Primus just talked to me."I answered absentmindedly as I tried to concentrate.
"Primus? What are you talking about?"
I ignored the medic as I tried concentrating on my powers. My body started warming up as I was enveloped in a golden light. First Aid jumped up shocked.
"What's going on?"First Aid asked startled.
I didn't answer as I focused on melting the metal straps. It hurt like hell, but I was satisfied as they started melting down. Finally I was able to pull my hands out of the clamps. Satisfied, I focused on my feet.
I winced at the pain, but soon those clamps melted too and I was free.
"Ha! Nothing can keep me down."I grinned.
First Aid looked completely shocked and surprised.
"H-how did you do that?"He exclaimed.
I shrugged.
"On of the props of being Primus' incarnate. I have unimaginable powers. I think Miss Priss forgot about that."I said, referring to Elita.
I stood up from the berth and flexed my arms. They felt stiff. I allowed my pain receptors to turn on again to see how badly I was hurt. I was sore, but nothing serious.
"Why didn't you do that earlier? It could've saved you a lot of pain!"
I shrugged.
"I didn't know I could do that. I'm still learning all the powers I have."I explained. "So, do you think the others could be alive? The more help we have, the better and I really don't want to leave anyone here to face the Decepticons wrath."
"It's possible, if so, they'd be in the prison."
"Then we're heading to the prison."
"How are we supposed to get there? If they see you, we're both doomed! They catch us and torture us to death."
"Well, maybe you can go ahead and scout out the area, make sure they're there. I can wait here for you to get back and hopefully with them."I suggested.
First Aid looked scared at that.
"I-I don't think that's best. I'm not a warrior, just a medic. I'm not good with sneaking around and breaking bots out of prison."He said unsure.
I smiled reassuringly.
"You can do it, First Aid. Just believe that you can. Besides, its late, most Cons will probably be in recharge right now so it shouldn't be too hard."I encouraged.
"I don't know..."
I grabbed First Aids shoulders and looked him in the optics.
"First Aid, you can do this. Just concentrate and do what you know is right. Follow your instincts. Everything will be alright."
He vented in defeat.
"Alright, I'll try."He finally said.
I smiled and hugged the medic.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine."I assured.
He vented again before standing up and walking towards the door. He stopped for a second a took a deep breath.
"I can do this."He muttered to himself.
I smiled as he walked out the door. Then I prayed to Primus that he'd be okay. I didn't want anything to happen to my new friend.
(First Aid's POV)
I've never done anything like this. Sneaking just wasn't my strong point. When in war, to get to the injured, I ran through the battles, hoping not to get shot. This was different.
Someone could approach me at anytime, I could be permanently offlined if I'm not careful. I didn't want that to happen, but I knew I had to help my friends and fellow Autobots.
The hallways were mostly empty, just like Jenny predicted. I occasionally ran into a cleaning drone, but they didn't bother me. The prison was located on the far end of the ship.
I made my way there quietly, keeping an eye out for any Cons. I guess luck was on my side because I didn't run into any. When I reached the prison, I opened the door a crack and looked in. I didn't see any guards, so I opened the door a bit more and walked inside.
The walls were aligned with cells on both sides. I approached the first one and looked inside. The cell was completely empty. I sighed and went to the next one, same result. It was like that until I got to the very end.
Inside I could make out two bots, one was red and white, the second was yellow, black, white. I knew who it was, Wheeljack and Seaspray. Both of them looked offlined.
"Wheeljack, Seaspray, are you online?"I hissed into the cell.
Wheeljack sat up and looked over to me curiously.
"First Aid? Is that you."He asked, obviously shocked to see me.
"Yes, is Seaspray alright?"
Wheeljack looked down and his offlined cellmate and shrugged before shaking him.
"Seaspray, wake up, First Aid is here. I think he's gonna bust us out."He said.
Seaspray groaned as he optics onlined.
"You mean we're finally getting out of this hellhole?"
"Yep."Wheeljack looked up at me again. "Any clue how to get the door opened?"
"I saw a key in the front of the room, maybe that'll work."
He nodded.
"Try it."
I swiftly ran up to the front of the room and grabbed the key that was dangling on a small hook. Then I went back to the cell where Wheeljack and Seaspray were already waiting. I opened the cell door.
"Is the others down here?"I asked.
"They should just be in one of these cells."Seaspray answered.
We walked over to the cell a crossed from them and looked in. this one held three offlined mechs who I recognized as Mirage, Bluestreak, and Prowl.
I opened that cell with the key and we all piled in. I walked over to Prowl and shook him.
"Hey, are you alright."
Prowl jumped awake, fully onlined and ready to fight.
"Whoa, calm down Prowl, it's just me, First Aid."I said, putting my hands up in surrender."
Prowl paused for a minute before nodding.
"My apologies, but we are in a Decepticon ship. How did you guys get in here?"He asked, surprised at all the mechs in here.
I looked over at the others and noticed that Bluestreak and Mirage were both awake and looking at us just as curiously and surprised as Prowl.
"We're breaking out of here."I answered. "Come on, we still got to find Beachcomber and Ultra Magnus."
We left the cell and walked to the next one. I looked in and saw the last two bots, both wide awake. I unlocked the cell door and they both sat up and looked over at us. They relaxed when they saw it was just Autobots.
"Come on, we're getting out of here."I told the two mechs.
They nodded as they followed me out of the room. We quietly made our way out of the prisons and out into the hallways. Luck was still on our side because we didn't run into a single Decepticon.
I led them straight to the room where Jenny was being held. The door slid open and I sighed in relief when I saw it was just her.
She smiled in relief when I walked in.
"First Aid, your alright."She said, then she noticed the other mechs. "Did you find everyone?"
"Yes, I did. Guys, this is Jenny. She's Optimus Primes sparkmate and Primus' incarnate. She's the one staging the break out."I explained to the others.
Everyone exchanged 'Nice to meet yous' before we got serious.
"Alright, so how do we plan to get out of here?"I asked Jenny.
"Well, my guess is they have a ship around here somewhere, possibly the ship they caught you guys in. If we can find that, then we can use that to get away."She answered.
I nodded thoughtfully.
"How will we find said ship?"I asked.
She didn't answer as she seemed to freeze for a second and stare off into space. I remembered the last time she did this was right before she melted the metal straps on her arms. She said she had been talking to Primus at this time.
When she seemed to come back, she smiled.
"I know just the way."She said.
Then she offlined her optics and then she. . .disappeared. Everyone gasped in surprise.
"Jenny?"I exclaimed.
I heard a giggle.
"I'm still here! Just invisible! Another new power."She said as she reappeared again.
"Oh my, how in the world did you . . ."I started, but stopped with shaking my head.
She giggled again before holding out her hand.
"Here, take my hand. I'll be able to turn us all invisible until I wish it otherwise!"She said, sounding super excited.
I hesitated for a second before grabbing her hand. The others followed suit. She offlined her optics before we all turned invisible.
She let go of my hand and smiled.
"There, now, lets make our way out of here."Jenny said, leading the way out of the room. "Oh, and remember, don't run into anyone if you see someone. Just because we're invisible does not mean we are transparent. We'll still knock someone over."
I followed the young femme out, feeling better than I have in about a meta-cycle. Being aboard this ship has really been awful.
The base was still relatively empty as we snuck through the hallways. It was only about four in the morning after all.
"Any idea where the ship could be located?"I quietly asked Jenny.
She shrugged.
"No idea, my guess is, wherever it is, its highly guarded. I'm hoping since we're invisible, we'll have a better chance of getting there unseen. Just keep an eye out for anything that could give us a clue. You guys know Cybertronian more than I do."She whispered back.
I nodded in understanding before I started keeping an eye out for a sign to the port where a ship is hopefully located.
About 20 breems later, we came across what looked like a port. I looked out a small window and saw the never ending space. I also saw a ship not to far away.
"Hey guys, what about that?"I asked, pointing to the ship in front of us.
Everyone seemed to sigh in relief when they saw a way off this prison. But then everyone tensed up when an alarm sounded.
"Autobots escaped! Autobots escaped! Autobots escaped!" The alarm screamed.
We all flattened ourselves against the wall as Decepticons came pouring out from different rooms and into the hallway. We kept quiet as we watched them run by, afraid that at any moment they would spot us and everything would be over.
Soon though the Cons cleared out of the hallway and made their way towards the throne room, where no doubt Megatron and Elita were waiting.
"We need to get out of here and now!"Jenny whispered fiercely.
We all nodded as we followed her out of the hallway into into the tunnel that would take us to the ship, and hopefully our escape. We didn't run into a single Decepticon the entire way there and I couldn't help but praise the luck we somehow got.
The ship was indeed the one we had come here on, so it wouldn't take long to figure it out and everything. Wheeljack went straight to the controls as the rest of us went to strap in. No doubt once the cons see us, they'll start shooting.
"Jenny, is there anyway you can make the ship invisible too?"I asked.
She nodded and touched the side of the ship and concentrated. I looked in the window of the Con ship as our ship turned invisible. I couldn't believe this could actually happen.
Wheeljack finally got the ship started up and before we knew it, we were out of there and on our way to Earth. I smiled as I watched the Con ship shrink into the distance, pleased that the Cons would never know how we just disappeared.
"Well guys, we're finally on our way home."Jenny said as she sat back in her seat, obviously relieved. "I've already informed Optimus that we were on our way back through our bond. He's excited to see you guys. You'll like Earth."
I looked through the window at the blue and green planet the became bigger the closer we got to it and I realized Jenny was right. I already knew I was going to like this planet. It wasn't Cybertron, but it's my new home with Autobots I could trust. I guess that's all that matters to me.
(Wow guys, I just wrote ten pages! This is definitely the longest chapter I've ever written for this story. I hope it's a good April's Fool Day chapter for you! Tomorrow is my first day of school after Spring Break, boo. So it might be a few days. And on top of that, I'm in the middle of moving. Yay! So sorry if it's a bit before I update. Hopefully this will sustain you! Don't forget to R&R!)
