A/N Neh… This idea attacked me like the rabid plot-bunny it is. Oh well, enjoy the total randomness of this chapter.

Oh and please, if you have any ideas (particularly something for the twins to do, hehe) leave it in a review. I'm really fresh out of ideas at the moment trying to get the sequel in order.


Ch. 2 April Showers

The sky was covered in a thin layer of clouds, with pieces of blue in between. It was a strange sight to see, given it was mid-April, but I wasn't complaining. Rain had been in the forecast for that day, so I was openly excited.


At the Autobot base, the twins and I lounged outside. They had just finished a mock fight with each other in the training room and felt like relaxing. Sideswipe was sitting down, leaning against the outside of the base, while Sunstreaker was lying down. I was sprawled on my back on Sunstreaker's chest, my eyes closed. There was a frown set on my face as I complained about school.

"I don't know how they expect us to cram all that into our heads. I mean, if I can't remember everything from just the beginning of this year, how am I supposed to know stuff from two years ago?"

"Well, you only have to remember it for that one day, right?" Sideswipe pointed out.

I sighed, "Yeah…but still, I don't wanna study for hours."

"I guess you'll just have to deal with it then," Sunstreaker concluded.

"You are no help whatsoever." In a huff, I brought hands behind my head and crossed my legs.

After that, we fell into a comfortable silence. My mind was still buzzing with the fact that I had State Testing in a mere few days.

Then, I felt something hit my nose. I opened one eye slightly. Huh… did I imagine that? This time something hit my arm. Nope, that's real!

I sat up quickly, a smile on my face. "It's raining!" I exclaimed happily, scrambling to get off of Sunny.

The twins gave me those why-the-frag-do-you-care? looks.

"So?" Sideswipe said.

"It barely ever rains here," I explained.

"Isn't the Earth phrase 'April showers bring May flowers'? So, isn't rain expected this time of year?"

I snorted, "Maybe for everywhere else on the planet."

Sunstreaker got to his feet hastily, brushing away dirt that wasn't there. "Well," he said, "I'm going back inside. The last thing I want is my paintjob to be ruined by the rain."

I rolled my eyes. Sunny could be so vain at times.

"Actually, I have to agree with Sunshine about going inside. I prefer my water hot and in the washrooms," Sideswipe said, also rising to a standing position.

Crossing my arms, I turned slightly away from them, "And here I thought you were supposed to be the fun Autobots."

"And you consider standing in the rain fun?" Sunstreaker asked in a disgusted voice.

I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face. "As my friends and I say, 'You gotta embrace the rain!'" I threw my arms up into the air and tilted my head back, causing my face to be covered in tiny raindrops.

"You're crazy," Sunstreaker said finally.

"I know!"


Yeeessss, how I love the rain :) This actually happened (minus the two giant alien robots) During PE it started raining and everyone was like 'WTF? It's June!' Actually, it pretty much rained right up until the end of the school year. Strange, but totally awesome.

Leave your ideas in a review please! Thanks!
