Chapter 5

Finding a Cure

Optimus held Patricia the rest of the night. He hardly slept at all. He was just so worried about Patricia that he didn't think about anything else. She slept soundly during the night not making a sound. Around 5:00 the next morning Optimus finally fell asleep. Four hours later he was woken up by a small voice. He activated his optics and looked down to see Patricia awake and smiling.

Optimus slowly stretched and Patricia exclaimed, "Good morning!"

"Good morning Patricia, how are you feeling this morning?" he asked.

"I feel fine." she replied.

Optimus smiled behind his face mask. Last night had been horrible. Red Alert had found cancer in her brain and the doctors had not and they couldn't get her in for a whole month. If Red Alert had smaller hands he'd do the operation himself, but since he was a giant transformer, he couldn't do much of anything except scan to see how big the cancer was getting. Optimus gently put Patricia back down on the floor and she shot up the stairs.

Sideswipe looked at Optimus with confusion and asked, "What happened?"

Optimus chuckled knowing it was a human thing that he wouldn't understand. Suddenly they heard Patricia slowly walking down the stairs and Optimus had to chuckle a little bit.

"Feel better?" he asked.

"Much." she replied.

Sideswipe still looked like he was very confused. Suddenly Rad and Alexis came walking down the stairs and said, "We're going up to Madison Hospital and try to get you in for an appointment."

Patricia nodded and her parents looked up at Optimus and said, "Watch her."

"I will Alexis, you can trust me." he replied.

Alexis smiled and took her husband's arm and they walked out of the basement and up to the garage. Everyone heard them as they turned on the car and drove out of the garage and started driving towards the hospital.

Red Alert suddenly came forth and said, "Patricia, I'd like to do more scans to see what I could do to save your life."

Patricia nodded and hopped into Red Alert's open hand. Red Alert carried her to a table had had installed and laid her down. He started doing scans over her body with Optimus next to him watching what he did. Next thing Red Alert did was gently feel around her body making sure nothing else was wrong. As he did this she started laughing and kicked at his large fingers.

Optimus couldn't help but laugh and Red Alert looked at him and asked, "What did I do?"

Optimus controlled his laughter and replied, "She's very ticklish so you have to be careful."

Red Alert looked down at the laughing child. He shook his head and went on with the scans over her body. Optimus stood next to the table keeping a good optic on the girl just as he said he would before her parents left.

"Okay Patricia I have all the scans and I'll download them to a computer and try to find a cure to this cancer." said Red Alert.

Patricia nodded and Optimus laid his hand in front of her so she could get down. She climbed into his hand and started walking up his arm.

"Hey what are you doing?" he asked.

"I thought I'd have a little fun climbing." she replied laughing seeing Optimus's face.

"Not on me you're not." he laughed.

His hand came around and grabbed the climbing girl. She looked up at Optimus and gave him a pouty look. He chuckled and gently put her down on the ground. She then grabbed a hold of his leg and tried to climb up, but only managed to fall back down on the ground on her rear.

"Ouch." she whispered.

Optimus slowly sat down on the ground and looked at her. She looked up at him and said, "I'm going to get something to eat."

Optimus nodded and Patricia quickly got up and ran up the stairs. Hot Shot walked over to Optimus and asked, "Do you think she'll be okay?"

Optimus looked up at the younger bot and replied, "I don't know, I hope she'll be okay."

Hot Shot stood next to Optimus who was still sitting on the ground waiting for Patricia to come down. Suddenly they all heard a crash. Optimus quickly got up and yelled up the stairs, "Patricia! Patricia are you okay!?"

He then looked around and found his minicon and said, "Go see if Patricia is okay."

His minicon quickly ran up the stairs and started beeping wildly. Optimus got worried and said, "Bring her down here quickly!"

All the Autobots were quiet and heard the minicon quickly run and stop at Patricia's unconscious body. Next thing they saw was the minicon carrying her down the stairs. Optimus gently took her out of the minicons arms and said, "Thank you my friend."

Optimus carried her over to the table and Red Alert started scanning her body and said, "Her heart rate is high. We have to bring it down."

Optimus looked everywhere for something that could make the heart rate go down. Suddenly Red Alert yelled, "Her heart rate is turning back to normal!"

Optimus ran back to Patricia and she slowly sat up and asked, "What happened?"

Red Alert looked down at his human patient and said, "You had a mild secure."

Optimus quickly held her up to his chest and whispered, "I was so worried."

Patricia looked at her friend and said, "I'm okay, it was actually quite peaceful."

Optimus looked down at his friend knew she was slowly dying. They had to think of something to slow it down and make sure she will survive.
