GrimlockX4- Hehehe, Maybe they'll be able to kill Starshi- STARSCREAM!!...Maybe because they'll be so slagging piss when they find out what happened to her…

The Digital Artist- I'm glad that I was able to distract you for a bit. I REALLY don't think it would be possible to have a Transformer turn back into human again…

Elita One- Heh…I'm not sure who I should pair Alex up in this story... Eh-yup, Screamer here is sooooo toast.

Skyjacker- Hehehehahaha yeah poor girl.

LoveHopes- Hmmm….to correct your confusion Alex was not powerful because she was low on energy from a previous escape and she's exhausted from getting a new body. Plus I don't plan on making any single character all powerful. I mean where would the entertainment be?

angelofstrife2007- Yup! He's (I also like his nickname, I mean I keep calling him Starshit instead of Starscream. Hehe) in soooo much trouble.

Um…well Elita-One had me thinking, who should I pair Alex up? It can be any Autobots and maybe a selective few Decepticons…I don't know…shrugs shoulders.

Disclaimer: I don't own DP and Transformer, ugh! This is getting so annoying!

Buying time and Blackout

Alex was jolted awake from a weird dream that wasn't hers by a sharp rap on her shoulder. Reacting on impulse she blindly lashed out on the person who roughly woke her, nerves still frayed from a few hours before. When her small fist made contact there was a loud resounding clang and the person made a grunt.

"You sure packed a punch." Came a male voice with a slight mechanical tone. Alex slowly opened her eyes a bit, her wary crystal blue optics staring at a small sized dent on a dark metal armor. She slowly looked up and saw red optics of a mech, Thrust. While she was staring cautiously at the optics of the seeker she felt emotions hugging and brushing around her heart and mind; irritation, hope….and is that infatuation and arousal?! Well shit…

She curled up to a tighter ball, making sure that her 'important' parts were heavily covered and protected. So as long he doesn't come near with arousal as the strongest emotion clouding his CPU. As she was studying him with mistrustful optics she noticed that he was a flying type mech, so if she had to guess that her world and this were similar, so with her mechanic nature she had to guess that his alt form was an F-22

(Just pretend that both of their worlds are the same, but instead of alien robots and Sector 7 in this world, there are ghost and Men In White)

What she doesn't realize is that because she doesn't have an alt form scanned she was in her protoform and she doesn't have armor of her own. Meaning that she was naked, to put it simply. And she was a very pleasing sight for the dark colored seeker. But luckily for Alex as irritation from the punch subsided, hope was the strongest emotion. But Alex did not relax one micrometer, instead she tensed up harder, ready to lash put again if needed, "What do you want." She almost snarled, signaling him to not step closer.

"I heard that you can revive the dead." Silence was her reply to his statement. "Can you do it again, can…can you revive some of my comrades back?" his hope flared stronger around her heart and mind at this point.

She opened her mouth to say that she doesn't know how but stopped short feeling like that she would lie. Then she remembered her strange dream, 'Of course! That was Allspark's dream, her memory on how to do some of her powers! Oh why did the dream have to come at such a bad time! Shit!' She cursed at the Allspark mentally, but knew that it wasn't the Allspark's fault in giving her the memory at such a bad time, because she knew that the gaining the powers and tib bit of memory was involuntary. You cannot control what comes and what doesn't. No matter how much she lies about her powers to anyone she has a horrible stutter and her brother had to rescue her.

She soooo needs lesson in bullshitting.

So instead of lying outright she opted to remain silent.

Skywarp entered the room, "So is she going to revive our comrades?" then he stopped short, staring at Alex.

Thrust, grateful and a bit disappointed to have a reason to get his optics off of the small (naked) femme, turned to Skywarp, "No she hasn't said a word." But Skywarp was still looking at the femme.

Alex was getting uncomfortable with the other seeker's intense gaze and she snapped, "What!" That got the desired result; he looked away and faced Thrust, looking a bit flushed as a mech can. She got curious, why the hell are the mechs pausing around her like idiots, but she wasn't about to push her luck any further.

Skywarp was speaking to Thrust in the com-link, "She's in bare circuit…"

"I know it's taking a lot for me to make coherent sentences to her."

"Damn, Screamer here sure did a good job on creating her body…"

"Yup."

"What the pit is taking so long!" Alex froze at the familiar voice that she so now despised with every fiber of her metallic being. Starscream came into the room, irritation rolling off of him in waves as he marched towards Skywarp and Thrust. "Why aren't you taking her to revive the others."

"Revive who?" Barricade came in.

'Oh dear lord, I'm surrounded by Transformer kidnappers. Now we're missing…" Then Frenzy came in behind Barricade, "…." Speak for the devil, she's completely surrounded by kidnappers, a rapist, and a little but cute twitchy idiot. She sighed in agitation, feeling a bit claustrophobic at all of the mechs blocking her view of the exit of the room. Then suddenly put his face optic leveled with hers with an irritated smirk, "Can you or can you not revive the offline?" His tone was harsh, but the smirk still stayed in place.

"…" She said nothing but shift getting ready to give him a nice kick into the face plate

Starscream lost his smirk and Alex felt his irritation grow in waves along with a murderous feeling. After a few nanosecond of thinking he tried a new tactic to get her to talk and comply, so Alex got two warning before he spoke in a form a lust and his optics had a certain gleam in it that she did not like, "I always have a different way of making you talk."

She had no choice but to talk or suffer the consequences that she did not want to endure again, "….Yes… I can."

"Can you heal." Murderous feeling came off of him in waves that send her a clear message 'Don't push your luck with me and answer now'.

"…Yes…" Starscream smiled at this.

"Then follow me, for you have your first mech; Blackout."

Alex unwound herself from the tight ball and cringed she had been in a tight position for more than several hours. Limping a few feet she raised her arm and arched her back feeling several loud satisfying pops in her joints. The mechs looked at her and Frenzy's head gave a violent twitch, "What?" she asked, feeling the weight of the stares on her, then she felt arousal surround her. Slowly she put her arm back down and noticed that the mechs looked away, arousal slowly ebbing away.

Starscream turned and strutted out of the room with, "That was disgusting, don't pop your joints like that again. Now come." She wanted to give a snarky reply but kept her jaw tightly locked together not wanting to really push her luck with him. Bastard.

She followed along with the others trying to remember every twist and turns of the halls, 'Patience is virtue my ass, it's more of a torture in disguise as virtue. I want to get the hell out of this hellhole. But I have to comply in order to get through with my plan of escape. Hell, it's been two days and Danny and the others still hadn't come to save me, so screw waiting. I'm not going to be some shitty 'Damsel in distress' and I don't know where the hell I'm at so I can't give Danny the place through our dream-link. So I have to be in good condition for my plan to work and I'm not going to let Starshit and the others beat me to the ground." She sighed and felt dread rear its ugly head and squeeze her stomach to a painful level, 'I'm going to regret complying with them.'

When she entered the room, she let out a small gasp in seeing several broken mechs in different piles. Starscream went up to the black one and said, "This is Blackout, so get started." Alex looked down at the black pile of scrap metals then sighed and got to work.

As Starscream was about to leave the room he told Barricade, "Watch her and make sure she's doing her work. Oh, and don't touch her." Barricade nodded and leaned against one corner of the room, near the only exit of the room.

Alex tried to calm the guilt that was eating away her lower stomach as she shifted through her memory banks of the dream. Concentrating on the power to course through her arms down to her arms she opened her fists and saw a soft white glow surround the palm of her hand. Keeping the power coursing through her arm she got to work. As she healed the damage she started to recognize the mech was a helicopter, a MH-53 Pave Low IV to be exact if she remembered correctly. Every burn from extreme heat of sabot rounds and gashes were slowly but surely being repaired. Broken pieces were placed in their correct places, wires were tinkered and the blades of the helicopter were straightened out. As she worked on the repairs she felt her energy reserve run a bit low and her heating body try to cool down be sweating, she found that a bit odd that she was sweating and stored the piece of information later for Allspark and Ratchet…

Now here comes the toughest part, reviving the mech named Blackout. Shifting through her memory banks again for information on how to revive the mech she found it unreliable. She knows how the Allspark revives the dead, but she does not know how SHE can revive the dead. She looked back at the time when she first talked to the Allspark,

"Your ectoplasm DNA, whether in your human forms or other, would mix very well with my energy."

With a sudden thought she looked at her hand and thought, 'The power mixes well with mine…if I was able to change then I would have ectoplasm in my body, more specifically in my spark.' She clenched and unclenched her fist, deep in thought, 'So if I just powered up a simple ectoball then I need to change to my ghost form to maintain a better control on the ectoball. I can shoot a small blast of ectoblast from my fingertip as human, but I couldn't maintain the ball form hovering above my hand for more than a second before it vanishes.' At that thought she looked back at Barricade whose intense watchful optics were glued on her for the last several hours. She felt tempted to change right there with out warning him, but refrained herself. Her nearly year long battle instinct tells her not to surprise him with the childish antics. She didn't want to risk injury to herself by surprising Barricade with her sudden change, so she gave the mech a warning, "Um…I'm going to need to change if I'm going to revive him. I'm going to change like the night that you saw me, remember."

The mech grunted in disdain, signaling that he did remember all too clearly. Alex suppressed a satisfied smirk at that.

She changed, not feeling like shouting the trademark "Going Ghost!" Her current silver and dark grey protoform became snow white and black with an ethereal glow surrounding her. Then she formed a normal ectoball, its glowing green form hovering above the palm of her hand. Then she channeled her Allspark energy mixing it with the ectoball. The effect was immediate; the glowing green ball swirled with white energy then becoming a blinding white flare like a spark.

While she was working Barricade looked at her in awe at her ethereal beauty now that he wasn't running from her and trying to shoot her.

Then she placed the newly made spark into Blackout's spark casing. The spark dimmed a bit and fear gripped her spark as she feared that it may not work but then to her immense relief the spark flared to life and ruby red optics came online

With the adrenaline gone, the hard work of the last few hours straight she changed back to her normal protoform and collapsed, but she did not succumb to darkness.

"Welcome back to the world of the living Blackout." Barricade greeted the newly revived mech.

----------------------------------

Well this was mostly Alex and the next chapter will be the same. Danny and the rest of the Autobots are still looking for her in the general area. Up next "Utter chaos and escape" where Alex escapes but before she escapes she leaves a memorable mess behind for Starscream, and boy he will not like what she has in store for him.

I hope that you like the way that I brought Blackout back to life, Skyjacker
