Hey, thanks for the reviews. I appreciate them allot. I won't have access to any computer when I'm home, and I'll have to be going there soon, so I was wondering if you could answer a question. If you have a bunch of documents, can you access the on your phone? If you can, I would be able to write anytime, and hopefully update anytime too. I can't check now because my phone is dead and I forgot my charger. Thanks.

The next day was Saturday. Mom and Dad were asleep and I had forgotten about what I had seen yesterday in the early hour. I fully intended just getting a glass of milk, then returning to bed for weekend hibernation. My plan was quickly spoiled when I heard the familiar sound of my car the robots pull up in front of the house. Everything came flooding back. The aurora, the transforming, the message sent into space. I had to find out what's going on.
I shoved the milk carton back into the fridge and tossed the glass in the sink before running out the back door. I quickly stopped myself from taking to the air, not a wise choice when I intend to have an alien robot follow me. I made my way to my mom's bike and took off. Just as expected, the driverless car followed me. I knew exactly where I was going, the perfect place to communicate with this alien without being detected. Unfortunately, it was on the other side of town.
I was trying to remember the directions when I hit a crack in the sidewalk. At my speed, not good. I was sent over the handle bars and landed on my back, the bike lying above my head. OW! For a moment, pain flashed accost my back and I couldn't get up.
"Sam, are you ok?" I turned my head to see Mikayla. The girl I had a crush on since third grade. I didn't know she knew my name. I hurried to get up and back on the bike.
"Yeah. I just, need to get going." I took off, what else could I do? She's my crush; I'll take any escape I can get. I briefly remembered she broke up with her boyfriend, something about not letting her drive or the guy said something that made her think he valued his car above her. I actually just heard that before I crashed in front of her and her friends.
I couldn't see the car behind me, but I knew he was still following me. I pulled to a stop in the abandon communal parking lot. It was sorta indoors, so we should be good. I made sure there was no one around, but stopped on a police car. I'm probably going to have to explain why I'm here. I walked toward the cop car, but stopped half way. It gave off the same energy, and the same spot of concentrated energy as the Camaro. I checked its aurora, tainted, murder, vengeance. This one wasn't anything like the other. I guessed he was the enemy.
I backed away slowly and he rolled forward. I turned and ran as I heard the sound of him transforming. The chase was over quickly and I was thrown on top of an old car.
"Are you user name Ladiesman217? Where are the glasses?" he demanded. I tried to keep my cool, didn't work.
"I don't know what you're talking about-" I tried denying it. He got angry and I found myself jumping off the car as he hit the side, causing it to fly through the air. I tried not to think about how easy it would be for him to squish me as I ran toward the exit. As I ran, I saw Mikayla heading unknowingly toward the robot on her motorcycle. I dove and knocked her off it.
"God Sam. What's your problem?" she took off her helmet and glared at me. I pulled her to her feet, ignoring her question.
"Get behind me." just then, the robot came around the corner and Mikayla complied with no objection. I knew it would do no good, but it was automatic. Stand between the girl and danger. He was too close for us to run, and giving him our unprotected backs didn't sound all to appealing at the moment. We backed slowly as the alien advanced.
Just then, the Camaro sped out from the opening behind us and came to a stop between us and the red eyed one. He opened the driver's side door in invitation.
"No driver," Mikayla whispered. I debated, this one was obviously on the good side, but getting any closer to the big one canceled that out in my mind. But the more he advanced, the more I knew it was the only choice. I pulled Mikayla in front of me and pushed her into the open door, I dashed in after her. As soon as I was clear, the door closed and we were off. The next few hours I was trying to calm Mikayla as I had trouble keeping myself together. Finally, when night fell, the Camaro parked in a dark corner and cut the power. He locked the doors before we could get out. Mikayla struggled desperately to get out, I sat quietly. I don't know if it was shock, a self preserving instinct, or what, but I was suddenly calm.
Mikayla stopped struggling as the cop car rolled past. As soon as it was passed, the car started back up and took off again. And with that, the chase started once more. This time however, it ended quickly be the car dumping us out at an electric plant and transformed. The cop car came in front of us and transformed, the yellow one assumed a protective position infrot of us. I stood and realized this must be why he wanted me to buy him. But why were they after me in the first place?
The one with red eyes lunged forward and the yellow one dived so when they collided, they wouldn't land on us. Mikayla pulled me away and we ran. We only ran a little ways before I was tackled to the ground by a two foot, red-eyed alien robot. The aurora around him was just like the one around the other red eyed one. I was just able to kick him off just as Mikayla ran off. Oh, nice. I saved her and she saves herself. Perfect.
I managed to keep it at bay as long as I could. Which was just long enough to see Mikayla running back up with an electric saw. I was relieved to see her come back. She took a swing at the small one attacking me and he was floored. She swing again and he was begging for mercy. Ok, he wasn't really, but he was trying to get away. Oh how I have good choice in crushes. She swung one last time and his head popped off.
"Not so tough without a head, hu?" I stepped up and kicked his head, the part still alive, far off. We turned at the aproachal of the yellow one. Mikayla stepped behind me. I looked at her, "I don't think he's going to hurt us." I looked back at the huge robot. He looked pleased with himself, the doors on his back resembling wings were held high. I figured that was universal for, 'I'm happy.'
I stepped forward, "Can you talk?" he nodded, then started playing random clips from the radio. "So you talk through the radio?" He nodded again.
"Where did you come from?" Mikayla asked, encouraged by the fact he hadn't attacked us yet.
"Rain down like visitors from heaven; messers from star fleet, caption." he again used quotes from the radio.
"So, you're an alien?" she asked. The robot clapped and nodded.
"You're wonderful, you're wonderful." He bent down and transformed, opening the door for us. "Any more questions you want to ask?"
We were quiet for a moment, then I stepped forward. Mikayla stopped me.
"Sam."
"Fifty years from now, don't you wan't to look back at your life and know you had the guts to get in the car?" I asked. She let go and I got in and scooted to the driver's side to let her in.
She didn't move for a minute, then spoke. "You are the strangest boy I have ever met." she shook her head and got in. I'm even stranger then you realize, I said mentally. The Camaro shut the door and took off, slower this time, the speed limit. Along the way to who knows where, I thought about my gift. I can't keep it secret my whole life, but I didn't want to tell anyone who would ship me off to the government to be experimented on or used as a weapon.
"If he's supposed to be this supper advanced alien robot," Mikayla caught my attention, "then why does he turn back into this piece of crap Camaro?" the tires squealed as we came to a stop. The door opened. We got out and he took off.
I turned to glare at her, "Nice." I turned again and put my hands on my head. What now? We had no ride, so what? We have to walk? Where were we even going, or houses, both of them, were in the opposite direction. Maybe we should keep walking in this direction, maybe there's something over there.
I looked over to see a shiny new '07 yellow Camaro roll to a stop beside us. I whistled when I realized it was the same robot that defended us. He opened the door and we got in.
"Nice." I commented. He shut the door once more and revved the engine in what I guessed was thanks. I turned to see Mikayla appraising the interior. We rode in silence for a while until he pulled up to a hill. We got out and stared up at the night sky. The most unbelievable thing to witness happened. Four meteorites came into view, and from here, I could tell their aura were just like the Camaro's. One in particular caught my interest. It showed the strongest kindness I thought possible. It was the oldest, and most experienced. All this came as no surprise, one had to be older, and more experienced, but the level of kindness, how strongly he cared about protecting others, for there was great protectiveness coming from his spark, shocked me. I knew, just by his aurora, that this one would willingly give his life for the protection of the innocent.
All four fell around us, far away, but still around us. I felt Mikayla's hand inch toward mine as we watched. After that battle, after all that's happened today, I knew this was only the beginning. And as I had predicted, something big is coming. And now, it was about to begin.
I hoped you liked this chapter. I was stalled many times, a chat on a forum, my first meal of the day; dinner, testing my newly fixed bike. But it's finally finished. This is actually a long time for me, as my friends and family say, I have no life. None, absolutely none. Next chapter will be tomorrow, unless something happens or I get a request. I can write multiple stories at once; they just take longer to publish. So, R&R
