Quick note: I just want to say thank you for the recent reviews. Some of you want to know if Jordyn will have powers and to answer your question yes she will. For now she is going to have a power that she doesn't even know she has and in later chapters I have something big planning to happen to her so just be patient with me. So with that said on with the story.
Chapter 10: Things may not be as they seem
Autobot Base:
Right now I am not in a good mood despite being at one of favorite places of all time. I just found out that I damaged my foot a little more when I jumped on it too hard when Miko was grabbed and for going in the ventilation shaft last week. The doctor said that I was for sure going to be in the boot for the whole eight weeks instead of six. So that means five more weeks in this stupid boot! To say the least I wasn't happy and being cooped for the past week hasn't helped any. I haven't been able to go anywhere as of late except my house and the base. Mama even band me from riding so whenever Jack and Arcee go out for a drive, I have to stay behind. My ride this week has been either Bulkhead or Bumblebee which I don't mind though but still was irritating since I was used to riding a motorcycle. SO then everyone has picked up on my sour mood that I've been in the last week and either tried to cheer me up or just avoid me altogether. It frustrates me because I hate being this way because I think it scares everyone else. I was then brought out of my thoughts when Jack came up next to me.
"Hey Jordyn. Are you okay?" Jack asked hesitantly as he put a hand on my shoulder. My irritation level is running high but not because of Jack but because of myself. So I'm just going to have to put away the pissed at the world drawer and cheer up.
I just turned to him with a smile and said, "Hey Jack. I'm fine! Just a little frustrated, but I'm trying."
"It's alright Jordyn I understand. Hopefully mom will lift the ban here soon so that you won't be cooped up for too much longer." Jack said positively as he was trying to cheer me up.
"Maybe. You know how mama is! Always protective of me, but I know she cares!" I said while sighing and continued. "I hope that you never break anything Jack or else mama will go into what's the word I'm looking for?"
Miko then decided to come next to me and Jack, "Helicopter mom!" She said answering my question. I guess Miko picked up on my mood change.
"Not exactly the word I was looking for, but that'll work for now!" I said with a slight laugh and everyone just stared at me even the bots. "What?" I asked a little bit confused.
Arcee then just smiled and said, "It's been awhile since you laughed Jordyn."
Those words hit me like a ton of bricks and then I thought to myself, 'Wow I must have been a real pain in the ass lately!'
"So it's nice to hear it again! We've been a little worried lately." Raf said as he came up to the railing to stand next to me.
Those words really hit me harder this time so I looked at them with an apologetic look on my face and said, "I'm really sorry guys that I've been a pain lately! I guess that being cooped all the time and being told that I will still be hobbling around on one leg for five more weeks really put me in horrible mood. So I apologize to all of you and I will get in a better mood I promise."
Before anyone could say anything after my apology, the monitors beeped really loudly with Agent Fowler's voice ringing out through the base, "PRIME! PRIME!" And to say the least he wasn't very happy at all.
"Special Agent Fowler to what do we owe-." Optimus said but was rudely interrupted by a pissed off Fowler.
"What else cons! I tried to chase them with some hard ordinance, but then they blew me out of the sky!" Agent Fowler said angrily through the web chat.
Miko the snorted, "Huh again!" She said in a humorous tone of voice. I have to admit he does get shot down a lot.
"Isn't that like the second time this month?" I said while smiling at the others and the just snickered in response.
Fowler just looked at me, "That's very funny Jordyn! Maybe you should try to come and fly this thing while being chased! Anyways they tried to smash and grab for the D.N.G.S. "He said with irritation to me and worry to the bots.
Arcee then got a confused look on her face and said, "That what?" I was also confused at what he was talking about.
"Dynamic Nuclear Generation System aka D.N.G.S! It's a prototype energy source that I sending to the coast for testing." Fowler said as he pressed a button to show the rest of us.
Ratchet then decided to enter the conversation, "Pfft that's absurd! Why would Starscream bother with such primitive technology?" He asked very doubtful.
"I guess to make a big fat primitive weapon of mass destruction! If this baby were meltdown it would radiate this state and the four next door!" He explained with no amount of comfort.
Raf then turned to us, "Umm did Agent Fowler say what state he was currently in?" He said with fear and worry evident in his voice.
"That is a very good question!" I said while looking at Raf and then back at the screen.
"I'm a sitting duck here Prime! I need to spin up your Groundbridge so I can transport the D.N.G.S to its designation point before the cons come back for it!" Agent Fowler said with urgency in his voice.
Optimus then shook his head at Fowlers suggestion, "Agent Fowler I'm afraid that sending such a volatile device through the Groundbridge is completely out of the question. If there were to be an accident during its transmission the radiation of which you speak would propagate through the Groundbridge vortex and harm all 50 states and beyond." He said with a warning in his voice.
"You got any better ideas?" Fowler asked curiously while looking at Optimus.
Optimus then was silent for a moment and then spoke, "Agent Fowler I think it is best that we come to you to pick up the device and transport it ourselves to its destination."
Agent Fowler looked unsure at first, but then said, "Seeing that I don't have any other options it's a plan."
Optimus then nodded his head as the communication line was shut, "Ratchet lock on to Agent Fowler's coordinates. Autobots prepare to roll out." Optimus said to everyone as they got ready to go. Optimus then turned to me, "And Jordyn?"
"Yes Optimus?" I asked a little bit confused as to why I was being addressed.
"Would you like to come with us to assist Agent Fowler? I know that you haven't been able to go anywhere in quite some time." Optimus said remembering my conversation with Jack earlier.
I just stood there for a moment and said, "I'm not sure Optimus. I don't think Fowler will like it if I came with you guys."
"Fowler can just get over it because you have been cooped up all week and you deserve to go on a little road trip with us!" Arcee said encouragingly.
Jack then came up to me and put a hand on my shoulder, "Arcee's right Jordyn you deserve to go out for a little road trip and besides it's not like you're going out in the middle of a battlefield or anything." He said in reassurance and I knew that he was right it is a low risk mission.
Thinking over their words for a moment, I then spoke up, "Alright I'll go! I'm tired of being cooped up anyways!"
Arcee then reached over and picked me up from the railing and set me on the ground while Jack said, "Have fun Jordyn!" I just nodded my head and smiled.
"If there are any fights Jordyn, tell me all the details!" Miko said while making punching motions.
I just looked at her and said, "I'm hoping there won't be any fights, but if there is any I'll tell you!" Miko then smiled at me as I walked through the Groundbridge with the others. Finally I'm able to go somewhere and get out for awhile!
Agent Fowler's Location:
As we all walked through the bridge, I managed to take in my surroundings and noticed a crashed jet no doubt belonging to Agent Fowler. The scenery was beautiful with the woods and the mountains in the distance. I was then brought out of my thoughts to the sound of Fowlers yelling.
"About time you got here! Any moment now the cons could have gotten the D.N.G.S!" Agent Fowler said with irritation in his voice.
Bulkhead the came back at him, "Easy there! We got here as fast we could so be lucky that we came at all!" Agent Fowler then gave the Bulkhead a look and then finally noticed my presence.
"And what in the world is she doing here? She can't be here! This isn't a field trip!" Agent Fowler said angrily as he was glaring at me.
Arcee then turned to look at Fowler, "Optimus allowed Jordyn to be here! And if you have a problem with her then you can deal with me!" Arcee threatened him with an angry glare.
"Yeah I'm with Arcee on this one! You got a problem with Jordyn then you will have to deal with us!" Bulkhead said in the same tone Arcee had a moment ago.
I then decided to intervene, "Hey whoa easy guys! No need to pound him into scrap ok! Agent Fowler Optimus allowed me to come because I've been having a rough week with my injured foot…oh and by the way I want to say I'm sorry about my comment earlier I wasn't in that good of a mood."
Agent Fowler looked at me and sighed, "Alright then it's time to load up!" We then turned our attention to the trailer Optimus brought with him and failed to notice that him and Bumblebee already got the device loaded up during our bickering. Agent Fowler then explained the plan to all of us including me and to say the least it was a pretty simple pick up and drop off mission.
"Alright Jordyn if you insist on coming then you have to ride with Prime and I. Do you understand?" Agent Fowler asked while directing me to Optimus who was waiting in his truck mode.
I just turned to look at him, "I was already planning on it since my mom banned me from riding Arcee! And before you freak out or make assumptions, my mom doesn't know about them either its just she doesn't want me to injure my foot any further." I said as politely as I could.
Fowler then nodded his head and went to open the door to Optimus's driver side and I hopped in by the passenger side. Fowler looked all giddy for the fact that he was going to start driving us there, but the one thing I learn earlier on is that the Autobots like to drive themselves.
"Ah ah Agent Fowler there is no need! I will handle the driving." Optimus said in reassurance to Agent Fowler.
Fowler then crossed his arms like a small child and merely said, "This is going to be a long trip! Even longer with extra passengers!"
Optimus then decided he had enough of Fowlers rude comments, "Agent Fowler it is not necessary to make such comments to Jordyn. I allowed her to accompany us so do not assume it was her idea. Autobots roll out!" He said in a calm yet a warning tone evident in his voice.
On the road/ Forest:
We then took off down the road and I just smiled to myself at Optimus's earlier comment and then I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I reached and pulled it out to see that Arcee sent me a message.
Arcee: "Fowler's lucky that Optimus said something before I did and for the fact that I'm stuck back here in the trailer!"
I then felt my phone go off again before I could reply back and this time it was from Bumblebee.
Bumblebee: "If he makes one more comment to you I swear he's going to be wishing he never met us!"
I was about to reply to both of their messages when I felt my phone go off again! Sheesh they're really trying to blow up my phone! I looked to see who it was from and this time it was Bulkhead.
Bulkhead: "Hey Jordyn if he causes you anymore trouble just tell me! I'm not afraid to make arrangements for him with the cons!"
I just sighed at all the messages and then started to reply back in order to calm them down a little.
To Arcee, Bulkhead, and Bee: "Hey guys I appreciate you sticking up for me, but he won't make another comment with Optimus present. So calm down please I'll be fine! Oh and by the way Bulkhead, I don't think that Optimus would approve of you sending Agent Fowler to the cons again. Don't you remember what happened last time the cons got a hold of him? Anyways I'll be okay up here guys so don't worry please! Keep your cool! -J"
It was a few moments before I got replies back from all of them.
Arcee: "Alright Jordyn we will, but if you need anything tell me!"
Bumblebee: "Okay Jordyn! But if you need someone to talk to I'm here!"
Bulkhead: "Yeah I remember and your right, but still Bee and Arcee are right Jordyn! If you need a little cheering up don't hesitate to talk to us!
Their messages just made me smile as I then went to reply back to all of them.
To Arcee, Bulkhead, and Bee: "Thank you guys! I appreciate it! You guys rock! -J"
Just as I was about to put my phone away I felt it go off again and this time the message was from Optimus.
Optimus: "Thank you Jordyn for keeping everyone calm. I apologize if Agent Fowler is upsetting you and I promise he won't make another remark."
I just nodded my head at that message and gently tapped his door in appreciation. It was then that Agent Fowler decided to break the silence.
"So if you don't mind me asking Jordyn…what happened to your foot?" Agent Fowler asked curiously.
I just turned to face him and then went back to looking out the window and said, "I was in gymnastics and was practicing a very advanced flip on the balance beam when I overestimated my landing and slammed my foot down on the beam. I have three broken toes and a broken ankle."
Fowler then cringed a little at my words,"Ouch! How long do you have to be in that boot?" He asked while looking at my foot.
"Five more weeks. It's a long time before I can get back to the gym unfortunately." I said sadly at the thought of five more weeks.
Optimus then decided to intervene and said, "Things take time to heal Jordyn. You just have to be patient."
I just nodded my head in understanding, "Yeah I suppose so…well let's hope my team can be patient as well." I said as I laughed slightly while looking out the window.
Before anyone could respond to my comment Ratchets voice came over the line, "We're locked onto your coordinates Optimus. Shall there not be any complications you should reach the destination point by sundown."
"Well knowing our usual luck we'll have some sort of trouble somewhere on this mission." I said in a casual tone of voice. It's normal to all of us to be on our guard in case something happens and usually something does. Then all of a sudden I see Agent Fowler honking Optimus's horn and yelling at the innocent truck driving in front of us.
As the horn was going off Agent Fowler was yelling, "MOVE IT gramps!" Then the truck decided to pull off to the side of the road and Agent Fowler kept honking the horn.
Optimus then decided he had enough of the horn nonsense, "Agent Fowler! Is that really necessary?" He asked a little bit agitated while Fowler gave him a look and slumped back into the seat.
"Don't tell me your one of those textbook drivers!" Fowler said a little bit irritated.
I then turned to look at him with a laugh and said, "No it's just that it wasn't necessary to honk the horn at somebody like that! I mean they don't know that were carrying something important."
"Well they were being slow and we're kind of on a schedule if you haven't noticed." Agent Fowler came back at me while my phone got another message.
Optimus: "I know you are not trying to be disrespectful in any way, but it would be best if you didn't argue with him at this time."
I looked at the message and just nodded my head and replied back to Optimus.
To Optimus: "I understand and I will try not to antagonize intentionally. –Sorry! J"
Before Optimus could reply back to my message, Agent Fowler then broke the silence, "You know you're really saving my bacon here Prime." He said gratefully while staring at the road.
"I am proud to be of service." Optimus said casually as if it wasn't a problem.
Agent Fowler just smiled, for once I might add, and said, "Although we wouldn't have to be doing this if you and cons kept the war in your own corner of the galaxy."
"Are you suggesting that no evil existed on your world before we arrived?" Optimus asked curiously to the now baffled Agent.
I then turned to look at Fowler and said, "He kind of has a point ya know." Agent Fowler just gave me a look and sighed.
"Well it was a different kind of evil…how about some radio? You seem like the Nashville kind of guy!" Fowler said trying to change the subject when all of a sudden heard a copter noise behind us.
I then looked at Fowler, who was currently looking out the window and asked confused, "What is it Fowler?"
"That's the one! The con who shot me down! Who is he? Wingnut? Dingbat? Skyguy?" Agent Fowler asked like he was playing twenty questions.
"Umm I don't think that there are any cons named that!" I said while trying to see what is going on.
Then the radio came on with a warning from Bulkhead, "Watch your rear views!" I then turned to look at Optimus mirrors to see green cars following us and a helicopter.
"Umm who exactly is that?" I asked a little bit confused because they don't look like cons. I then watched as the cars surround Bulkhead who is behind us at this moment in time.
"Feeling a little constricted without the use of my fists here boss!" Bulkhead said sounding a little bit fidgety over the radio.
"Remain in vehicular mode unless absolutely necessary!" Optimus ordered as the cars were starting to surround us while Bumblebee pulled in front of Optimus.
Agent Fowler then looked out the window and said, "A whole team of cons!" I just looked at him and then out the window again to get a better look to see the green cars and I was about to say something when Ratchet's voice came over the radio.
"What? I'm not picking up anything! They must be utilizing a cloaking technology!" Ratchet said a little puzzled as to why the cons got by his scanners.
I picked up the radio and said, "Maybe they are human!" I then got a weird look from Fowler. "What you never know!" Then all of a sudden I saw a car pull up to the window and a man popped out of the top of the car.
"Pull over!" The guy ordered as he pointed his guns at us and Fowler then got a surprised look on his face.
"Well I'll be dipped!" Fowler said to himself still not taking his eyes away from the gun pointed at us.
I was the shocked to see my assumption was right, "Whoa I was actually right? And I was only guessing!" I said surprised at the recent turn of events.
"Our assailants are not Decepticons…they are humans!" Optimus explained to everyone else including everyone at base.
I guess that everyone was surprised by this fact because Raf and Jack said over the radio, "Human?!" I then picked up the radio and looked out the window again.
"That's what I said!" I then shouted into the radio and Miko decided to join the conversation.
"Oh please! Taking on our bots they're road kill!" Miko then said a little too confident.
I then sighed and said, "Remember Miko the most important rule in the Autobot book? Do not harm humans!" I then heard Miko sigh and Jack just agreed with me on the situation. Then all of sudden Optimus swerved at the car next to us almost being shot at in the process.
"Who are these guys?" Agent Fowler asked confused as he looked out of the window.
"Autobots maintain your cover and apply minimal force! Disarmament only!" Optimus ordered while Bumblebee was bumping into a approaching car pulling to the right of us.
I then saw the car flip over as it hit a rock and then we had to make some sharp turns up ahead. To say the least that it was nauseating when Optimus was turning so many corners at the speed he was going. It's a good thing I have a strong stomach, but Agent Fowler on the other hand wasn't so lucky. I had to look away from him because it looked like he was about to puke everywhere and I know Optimus wouldn't appreciate it if he had throw up in his interior. Bulkhead had to learn that the hard way when Miko decided to follow him onto the Decepticon Warship.
"Could use some air!" Fowler said while gagging at the same time and Optimus rolled down the window for him. Fowler then put his head out the window and I saw a weird look come across his face.
"What is it Fowler?" I asked curiously as another car pulled over beside us and I managed to see someone get out of the car and onto the part that connected the trailer to Optimus. I then shouted, "Someone is trying to-"I was then interrupted by Agent Fowler.
"Prime bear right!" Agent Fowler warned as Optimus swerved to hit the car next to us and made him go off the cliff. Agent Fowler then turned to me and said, "What were you saying Jordyn?"
I then sighed, "Someone is trying to disconnect the trailer!" I said urgently not to mention irritated.
Agent Fowler then nodded his head and opens the door to handle the problem while I crawled over the seats to get a better look. Fowler then reached over and grabbed the dude who was trying to sabotage us and held him out to the side.
Agent Fowler then got a look on his face and threatened, "You're gonna tell me everything I wanna know!" Yet his threat was short lived when we got too close to a tree and the dude was knocked out of Fowlers grasp. I then moved over back to my seat so Agent Fowler could get back in and when he did the radio then came on with an unknown voice.
"I hope you take better care of the D.N.G.S than you do your captives." The unknown voice said in warning tone.
I then handed Fowler the radio as he took it and said, "Special Agent William Fowler here identify yourself."
"How in the world did this guy get on the same frequency as us?" I whispered to Fowler as the radio came back to life.
The unknown voice then said in a threatening tone, "I am Silas. Of greater consequence to you we are MECH! Fair warning we will be helping ourselves to your device even if it means inflicting casualties."
"Is that so? Tell me Si what is the market price is for a D.N.G.S these days?" Agent Fowler then asked in a sarcastic tone of voice yet the question was serious.
Silas then came over the radio and said, "What makes you think we intend to sell it Agent Fowler?" His voice sounded threatening as if he was planning something that didn't sound too good in my book.
"So what exactly does he intend to do with it?" I hesitantly asked both Agent Fowler and Optimus who in turn then didn't have an answer.
Silas then continued his little speech, "There's a war brewing between the new world order and the newest! The victor will be the side armed with most innovative technology." He said in a voice that gave me chills.
'This guy is crazy!' I said to myself as I looked at the side mirrors to see another car pulling up behind us and shot something at the back locks that were keeping the door shut. The locks then popped open and one guy then managed to crawl out the top window to the hood of the car preparing to jump onto the trailer.
"So Si you think that MECH has all the most radical tech!" Agent Fowler then said while smiling at me and then looked out the window again.
I then smiled at him and whispered, "Please he'll never know what's going to hit him next! But let's hope he never finds out the truth." Then all of sudden I see out the mirrors as Arcee managed to launch herself onto the car making it fly backwards and making it roll into another car behind them and it exploded. Bulkhead managed to get out of the way and Arcee landed safely in front of him.
"Later Si!" Agent Fowler said over the radio victoriously and lazily handed me the radio again and relaxed back into the seat.
Optimus then decided to intervene Fowler's victory celebration, "Agent Fowler do not take your Silas lightly! Megatron preached the very same ideology before plunging Cybertron into the Great War that destroyed our world." He then warned as his voice sounded distant at the memory.
Before any of us could speak Ratchet's voice came over the radio, "Optimus prepare to initiate phase two! Five miles ahead to the south, you will reach the rendezvous point." He instructed while we continued to drive on.
"We have to drop the device off on a train right?" I asked still a little skeptical of the plan.
Fowler then nodded his head and said, "There's our destination point!" As he pointed to the train speeding by us.
"Autobots remain in a tight formation!" Optimus ordered as Arcee jumped the guardrail into the train tunnel and we followed behind her. MECH soldiers tried to follow us into the tunnel, but Bulkhead transformed and blasted the entrance so they wouldn't follow.
We raced right next to the train as Bumblebee transformed and jumped on top of the train and knocked on the door. The door then opened as a soldier then looked up to see Bumblebee waving at him and then the trailer folded down to reveal Arcee carrying the device. She then handed the device to Bulkhead who managed to climb onto the train too and he grabbed it to pass on to Bumblebee. Bumblebee then grabbed it gently and set it down inside the train car. Then Bumblebee, Arcee, and Bulkhead got off the train and transformed just in the nick of time as we drove out of the tunnel. We were all relieved that we managed to complete the mission, but there was the troublesome MECH to deal with now.
"Well I'm glad that's over with now we have to deal with trouble back there!" I said while covering up the radio speaker so they won't hear what were saying.
Agent Fowler then nodded his head as we kept driving, but then all of a sudden we heard jet noises behind us. I then turn to look out the window to get a better look to see several jets flying toward us. At first I was puzzled at who it was, but then I recognized the colors and I knew exactly what the jets were.
"Air support? Ours or theirs?" Agent Fowler asked while sticking his head out the window.
"Actually Agent Fowler they're-"I tried to explain to him, but then was interrupted when the radio I was covering up but uncovered in a moment of panic came on.
"Optimus you have company!" Ratchet said in warning to the jets as they started to fire missiles at us.
Optimus swerved back and forth trying to avoid the missiles while I held onto the seat because I was being tossed everywhere despite that I was wearing a seatbelt. If I thought that I was getting nauseated before now I'm going beyond that level. All of us narrowly avoid the missiles except for the fact the trailer got disconnected and blew, but the cons continued to pursue us.
I then felt my phone buzz and turned to get it out of my pocket and wasn't surprised to see who was sending me a message.
Arcee: "Jordyn are you okay? It was looking pretty rough there for a second!"
I then took a deep breath as I replied back to her as calmly as I could.
To Arcee: "I'm alright Arcee! You know that Optimus or Fowler would never let me get hurt! –J"
Just as I sent the message to Arcee, Optimus then decided speak up with concern in his voice, "Jordyn are you alright?"
I just nodded my head and said, "I'm alright Optimus! Don't worry!" I then laughed a little as we came upon a cliff and turned to face the other directions only to see the cons transform in front of us.
We sat there for a moment when Optimus decided to break the silence, "Agent Fowler if you, Jordyn, and the rest of us are to survive then it is absolutely necessary to drop our cover!" He said as he transformed into bipedal mode.
I held my breath and closed my eyes so I won't feel nauseous again and next thing I knew Optimus was holding me in his hand. I was grateful I didn't get dizzy this time, but Agent Fowler wasn't so lucky as he was trying not to puke his guts out.
"Maybe I should have told you to hold your breath! Sorry!" I said sympathetically towards Fowler as turned to face the cons who were pulling out their blasters. "Uh oh this doesn't look good!" I said while looking at the menacing blasters pointing at us.
The bots then prepared for battle as Optimus then set me and Fowler on top of a boulder while saying, "Remain here!"
"Of course!" I said to Optimus as I was trying to regain my balance. Normally I wouldn't have a problem with balancing, but with my foot it's a little bit harder.
"Will do!" Agent Fowler said after he turned to face the bot as they were fixing to charge.
Bulkhead then came up in front of the bots and said, "After a long road trip it's good to get out of the car stretch my legs and kick some tailpipe!" He then brought out his wrecking ball and the bots began to run towards the cons a lightning speed.
The first con was taken down by Optimus as he smashed him with his fist as another one was taken down by Bulkhead with his wrecking ball. I then saw Arcee jump up and started to kick and punch the con in front of her. Even though Arcee was the smallest she managed to take down the con down in no time. Sometimes you gotta watch out for the smallest ones because you never know what they're capable of. I looked around to spot Bumblebee punching one of the cons like he was a professional boxer and to say the least if he was human, he wouldn't be that bad. I just stared in awe at the scene of the battle as the cons were definitely losing at this point, but then I heard a helicopter circling us. Well isn't that just great Silas and his goons now know of the Autobots! One more enemy to add to the growing list that we have and the cons are bad enough! I then heard the radio go off as Agent Fowler picked it up and listened carefully.
"Special Agent Fowler you and that girl live a charmed life walking among titans!" Silas said with a bit of jealousy in his voice.
"Come on down I'll introduce you!" Agent Fowler then threatened while looking at the copter.
I then got a little bit irritated and decided to speak, "I'm sure they would love to meet you guys! Since you tried to kill us earlier!"
"In good time! Now I'm starting to wonder how the D.N.G.S managed to disappear into thin air." He said as if he knew already, but that was kind of impossible.
"Yeah I would like to see try and find it!" I said tauntingly as I watch the helicopter stopped its circling and head in a new direction.
I then heard Silas laugh over the radio as he said, "Oh but I already have…now if you excuse me I have a train to catch!"
"How in the world did he figure that out?" I said a little baffled, but then I remember how the cons blew up the trailer and the device didn't meltdown so it was kind of obvious.
Agent Fowler was as baffled as I was when he warned over the radio, "Prime! Silas got wise of phase two!"
"I understand!" Optimus then shouted as he was all of sudden hit in the face by a tree and plummeted off the cliff and slammed down on the lower ledge.
"Optimus!" I shouted as I watched that he was trying to get up, but couldn't as he fell back down.
Agent Fowler then was shocked by the turn of events and yelled into the radio, "Prime do you read me? PRIME!"
"He can't hear you Agent Fowler! He's out cold right now!" I said while watching the bots being quickly surrounded by the bots.
"That's not good by any means! Silas is going to grab the D.N.G.S!" He then shouted at me while watching the bots struggle with dealing with the cons.
I then turned to look at him and grabbed the radio while saying, "Did you forget that the bots might get hurt too!" I then contacted base and said, "Guys we need help over here and Optimus is down! MECH is going to get the D.N.G.S so we need another plan please!" I then turned to climb down the boulder so I could somehow go help Optimus, but Agent Fowler then grabbed my arm.
"What do you think you are doing Jordyn? You're going to get killed out there!" Agent Fowler said angrily as I yanked my arm from his grasp.
"I'm going to help Optimus if you don't mind! I'm not going in the middle of the battle! Ever since we started this mission you been nothing but rude and disrespectful to all of us! For once can you even give a damn about the bots because you haven't since you met them! So if you'll excuse me!" I then shouted as I made my way down the boulder leaving a speechless Fowler staring at me.
I knew that I was out of line when I said that, but I had to get away from him and help Optimus. I made my way to the cliffs edge and started to carefully climb down the edge to get to Optimus who still wasn't moving. Even though I might damage my foot further, I still had to help him, but the bad thing was I didn't know how. I kept thinking how I could help him as I got closer and closer to the edge and I managed to finally get down to the lower ledge. Jumping down I then ran to the best of my abilities over to Optimus and gently tried to wake him up.
"Optimus come on get up! We need you to wake up right now!" I shouted at him, but he still didn't get up. "Please come on wake up everyone is in trouble right now! Sleep time is over now we need you to wake up." I shouted at him then I decided to put my left hand on his arm to shake him awake. "Come on Optimus your worse than Jack when he doesn't want to get up!" Then as if I shocked him, Optimus then decided to open his optics and I let go as he held his head like he had a headache.
Optimus then took notice of my presence and said, "Thank you Jordyn for helping me! But how did you do that?"
The question confused me as I asked, "How did I do what? All I did was shake you awake!" I shouted but then I had to remind him of the current situation. "Optimus while you were out MECH went to go grab the D.N.G.S and the rest of the team are busy fighting off the cons!"
Optimus then turned away from me and looked at the helicopter landing on top of the train, "Jordyn I want you to go back with the others! I will handle MECH!" He said as he carried me back up to the cliff edge and he then set me down and went to go chase MECH.
As I turned away from Optimus I saw Arcee finish off the last con and then she asked, "Where's Optimus?"
"He had a train to catch!" Fowler said as he looked out in the distance
Arcee then came over to me and said, "Hey kiddo. What are you doing down here? I thought Optimus put you on top of that boulder with Fowler."
"He did but after he got knocked off the cliff… I decided to go help him and then he put me back up here." I explained to her and then I took notice of her exhausted form. "Hey you okay Arcee? You look a little bit drained." I said with concern in my voice.
Arcee just waved it off and said, "I'm fine Jordyn don't worry about it. Hop on!" She then transformed as Bumblebee helped Fowler get down and transformed as well.
I just nodded my head and got my helmet from the compartment and said, "Oh by the way you might want keep me away from Agent Fowler. I kind of told him off earlier for being a jerk to you guys and he might not be too happy." I then grabbed onto Arcee as we took off.
"Wow I can't even imagine what you told him, but he'll have to go through me first before he gets to yo-hey wow that's weird!" Arcee then said in an amazed tone of voice.
I just gave her a weird look and said in confusion, "What's weird Arcee?" I then tilted my head to the side.
"I felt really drained a minute ago and now I'm not!" Arcee said yet again with an amazed tone of voice.
Now I was really confused, "Umm how is that possible Arcee? Nobody can recover that fast!" I said still confused.
Arcee then moved her mirrors so that they were facing me, "Well whenever you grabbed a hold of me it was like all of my energy was restored! How did you do that Jordyn? Is there something that you're not telling me?" She asked me curiously.
"You and Optimus asked me the same thing! Why do you guys keep asking me that? I have no idea what you're talking about!" I asked now irritated at the fact that they thought that I did something magical.
"Well you did something because somehow my energy was restored and any injuries that I did have are gone so…" Arcee then trailed off as I interrupted her.
"Arcee I can assure you I did nothing, but look Optimus stopped the train! Wait what in the world are Jack and Miko doing her?" I asked confused at the sight of Jack and Miko standing next to Optimus.
Arcee then pulled to a stop and we both walked over to them with me saying, "Guys when I said we need a little help I didn't me jump onto a train!"
Jack just then rubbed the back of his head and said, "Well it was Miko's idea and we thought it was the only way to hold off MECH!"
"Yeah but then they left and blew up the tracks! Then Optimus drove by and stopped the train and saved both of our asses! Right Jack?" Miko said in excitement as she flung her hands up in the air.
Jack just looked at her and smiled,"Yeah Miko your right. So how was the road trip Jordyn?" He asked while Arcee walked past us and to Optimus to talk to him.
Half distractedly I answered, "Well it wasn't a boring road trip that's for sure with MECH following us and the cons showing up for a fight! This was the most interesting road trip I been on and trust me I have been on a lot of weird road trips with my gymnastics team."
"That's so awesome you got to tell me all the details! Did Bulkhead smash a lot of cons? Did you take any pictures? Did you-"Miko said excitedly but had to stop mid sentence to take a breath.
I just laughed and said, "Whoa easy Miko calm down! I'll tell you all about it when we get back to base!" Miko then gave me a thumbs up and went over to Bulkhead to tell about her adventure today.
I then watched as Arcee and Optimus continued to talk to each other and I have no doubts that they are talking about me. I don't believe for a second that I had anything to do with their recovery at all and that it was all them. I was then brought out of my thoughts when Jack got my attention by putting a hand on my shoulder.
"So do you have any idea what they're talking about?" Jack asked as he looked at Optimus and Arcee who were still talking.
I just shrugged my shoulders and said, "Arcee's got this weird assumption that I help both of them recover from their injuries and that I help them regain their energy. Crazy right?"
"Well maybe Arcee is right Jordyn." Jack said while I gave him a look, but he put his hands defensively. "Easy Jordyn I'm not saying you're wrong, but you might want to consider it. Remember how Arcee was badly injured when we first met her and when we touched her hand she immediately felt better? I think that it was you that healed her! Think about it."
Jack then went over to greet Arcee who gave him a smile in return and as he explained what adventures he went on today. Optimus then called for a Groundbridge so that we could all go home after this long and exciting day. As I walked through with the others and I kept repeating his words in my head over and over again, trying to wrap my head around the idea that I might have helped them recover in some way. Still not convinced I just waved it off for now and focused on more important matters like explaining to my mom that my foot may have gotten worse and apologizing to Fowler for my earlier outburst. This is going to be one interesting week that's for sure!
Well there you go another chapter! Sorry for not updating in awhile been super busy as Spring Break is here. As you can tell Jordyn is in denial at the fact that she has some weird healing ability. I'm going to update Side Stories next so that we can go more into detail about this weird ability that Jordyn has so don't forget to check it out! In the next chapter of this story the cons have discovered a new weapon that could be devastating to the Autobots and the arrival of new Decepticons makes the situation even worse. Well like always please R&R and I'll see ya next time!
