This is, obviously, the next chappy. Don't forget to vote via reviews for 'mysteries and strange ties'. Remember, I won't update it until one side reaches 3, not too high, but I really want to know if I should put it in. Enjoy =.D
Disclaimer: I do not own transformers, can I just put on my profile, "I don't own any story I write for"?
The next day when I came out of recharge, he was already awake, but was still in the position he was last night. I sat up, holding him so he wouldn't fall. He smiled at me, the first one I've seen from the boy. I smiled back, happy to see his progress.
"Hungry?" I asked.
"Not really." he said, shrugging.
"Too bad, you have to eat or Ratchet will kill me. And take some of that medicine, I value my life." he smiled again humorously. He finds Ratchet threatening my life for his health funny? I don't, there's no way I wouldn't have him eat properly anyways. We then headed off to the rec. room, but Optimus was already there.
Sam tried to hide in my hands, but it didn't work to well when I reached to grab his 'breakfast'. He stared at Optimus with wide eyes, Optimus smiled back calmly. I sat in our usual spot, which was next to Optimus, and handed Sam the food.
"Sam, this is Optimus." I started the introductions in English, "Optimus, meet Sam." This was in Cybertron. Sam looked at me questionably. "I'm the only one who speaks English." Ratchet might, but he wasn't here, so he didn't count. I turned to Optimus as Sam ate. "You and the others should learn his language."
"How?" He sounded as though he wished to.
"The humans have something called the 'internet'. You can learn just about anything on it. Look for 'English'." Optimus set right on it. I faced Sam once more when he had finished. "Optimus is learning English to speak with you. Would you like to meet him?" he nodded cautiously. I could tell he knew none of us meant harm, telling him about the symbol must have done more than I thought, but he was still hesitant around the others.
I turned back to Optimus, who had just finished up, we learned fast.
"Hello Sam." Optimus spoke to the boy.
"Hi." he replied in a small voice.
"I would hate to push you, but it would help if you knew why they had you." Sam shook his head to the implied question, reminding me greatly of a sparkling.
"We will arrange your situation shortly. Would you prefer to go back to earth, or stay with Bumblebee?" Optimus said it to show he had no intention of keeping the boy against his will, expecting the answer to be the former. I suddenly selfishly wanted him to stay, I have become attached to the boy, but he probably had friends and family waiting and worrying for him.
"I don't want to go back to earth, I don't have a home there." he looked down; I suddenly remembered what he had told me and my anger toward his parents flared up again. I quickly repeated what he had told me to Optimus over the Autobot comm. system so Sam wouldn't worry about it. Optimus looked disgusted at the boy's parents too.
"Is this alright with you, Bee?" He turned to me, gathering himself again. I smiled triumphantly and nodded. "Alright, but in this case, we need you back on duty. We have gotten a lead on the All Spark." my optics widened, I knew we would find it, but not this soon. "We need you to help Sideswipe on tracking. We have locked onto Megatron's spark signal and we know where ever he is, the Cube is."
"Megatron? Couldn't it be a trap?"
He shook his head. "His signal is faint; he is near off lined, so he is either badly injured or frozen. We haven't determined where he is, Arcee and Sunstreaker are trying to get an exact lock on their location so we know where we are going. You and Sideswipe are merely keeping us on his signal." I nodded sounds reasonable.
"How did you find Megatron's signal if it is so faint?" I asked.
"We intercepted a transmutation within the Decepticons. One has found Megatron. Weeljack tracked its origin and we found Megatron's faint signal." Sam looked amazed at all of what we did to find the All Spark. I nodded and walked toward the tetchy room, I'm a scout, not a medic, tetchy, or worrier.
"Hey Bee, still got that pet of yours? Are we taking him to Earth?" I ignored Sideswipes first comment.
"His name is Sam, and he wishes to stay with me."
"Oh, well. Why is he hiding then?" I looked down to see Sam once again trying to burrow deeper into my hands, understanding us must help.
"He only trusts me. It would help if you all learned his language." I explained to the three of them about the internet. Within minutes, we were all speaking English.
"Hi, I'm Sideswipe." he smiled at Sam.
"I'm Arcee." the other two came up to us.
"And I'm Sunstreaker." he smirked. After a moment of silence from the boy, the others decided to catch me up on the details. I didn't understand half of it, as I said, I'm no tetchy. But I did understand that they have discovered they, Megatron and the All Spark, are on a planet, and not on a moon or floating somewhere in space. They also knew the planet held organic life. I went through all the planets I knew with organic life.
Day's went on like that, Sam was making tremendous progress. He didn't fear anyone, as he somehow hadn't since he befriended me, but was still shy. I smiled at how he smiled every once in a while, he had come far from being terrified of everyone related to Cybertron, to this.
I just hoped we will be able to help him, I knew there was something going on, and I knew the Decepticons would go after him once more. And I would be ready.
Hi, hoped you liked it, I added something to my original notes to this one, hoping it would sound less like something typed up on my phone. Well, now I have plans for another story, but I'm going to try and hold it off until I finish at least this one or my trilogy. R&R and vote via reviews on my other story, remember, I won't post until one side reaches 3. =.)
