"Honey, do you think we did the right thing. I mean of course she now has Starscream to play with, but don't you think that it will now be even harder for her to make real friends?" I asked staring at my husband, whom was sitting across from me, in his big old reading chair. He put down his book and told me what he said the last time I had asked this question.
" Those children at her school are horrid, and if ether of us had enough time I'd home school her, but we don't and a tutor is too expensive. She needs a friend," my husband says this all in a calm voice, not at all mad in the slightest of ways.
I want to say that this will be all right, but there is a nagging feeling in the back of my head saying that this will end badly. I don't want Nancy to get hurt, but she needs someone she can talk to besides us. Me, not knowing what say, only whisper goodnight before leaving to our bed.
{ Nancy's point of view}
"Beep! Beep! Beep!" I groggily make my hand go from under the covers reach out to silence my alarm, before my sleepy mind figured out that I didn't even have an alarm clock. No I just got one last week.
And so then the alarm clock continued to make that noise, as I was still wondering if I had an alarm clock to even make the sound. It kept on getting louder and louder until a scratchy voice came up and yelled, " Can't a mech get a decent amount of recharge around here?! Make that offensive noise stop this minute, or I'll make this cycle the worst one you'll ever had!"
"Starscream?" I whisper, barely remembering what had happened the day before. I reached over again to turn off the clock, when the events of yesterday came back to me. My parents' present, my own personal Starscream! Wait didn't they say that they had programmed six-hundred sayings into him? Did they plan for him to threaten me?! Is he going to be like everyone else? He, my favorite transformer ever.
I think I had started crying long before I knew I was. I didn't want to cry in front of Starscream, but I did. Soon my room full of purple and silver that had been my one true place of happiness became just like everywhere else. And to think it started because of a stupid clock!
{Starscrem's point of view}
I don't know where I am, there is a giant human femme crying to herself, and to top that all off she still hasn't stopped that beeping noise yet! I let out a large intake to pull myself together, it doesn't help the situation at all to be angry. But maybe pleasing the femme would get me some answers. It physically hurts to say the next words that come out my vocalizer, but I do it anyways.
"I'm sorry."
The girl than looks up at me saddened, but has a little hope in her eyes. " You mean it?" I say yes and she eats the lie. Stupid femme. At least she turned off that noise, I was about to snap. Now how to get her to answer all my questions? I know!
"Where are we?" I ask as if it were a trivial subject.
"My room of course." Stupid femme.
"I mean as in what planet?" I ask this as sweetly as I can, which in all actuality wasn't that much.
" Earth," says the femme.
So it seems that I am still on that grody planet. But that brings up some more interesting questions, like is everything bigger or am I just tiny. Because, last cycle I could smash a human with my own foot, now it appears to be vice versa. I was only about as tall as both of the femme's servos stacked on top of each other, and she had extremely tiny servos.
I was sick of calling the femme the femme, so I do the most obvious thing and ask her name. She replied with the whispering of Nancy, then ran off yelling that she would be late to school. She also said that she would be back later. I hear a door slam and think to myself of all that I could explore!
