I cannot believe it's been a year since the story was published! And I just post three chapters! although I have good reasons for that. My Grandmother end a Grand-Aunt passed away, and... I guess you understand.

In this chapter, I was based in another song from the Musical, called "Me", that's when Gaston goes to propose to Belle. It's so funny! In fact, the only part in the live-action movie I really don't like, is that one. Belle was so polite when she refused Gaston's request. In the cartoon, we could notice the hidden sarcasm, the eyes rolling, the forced smile... It was so obvious she was felling unpleasant!

By the way, although Vince is being portrait as Gaston, he is not the main villain. In fact, in my fanfic, it will have two Gaston's. Vince is the annoying and sexist Gaston. But the character that will portrait the Evil-Gaston... I will give some clues with the passing of chapters.

"Blah, Blah, Blah"- Normal Speech

"Blah, Blah, Blah"- Thoughts

[Blah, Blah, Blah]- Bumblebee's speech

Miko woke at the sound of her cell phone's alarm clock. She barely had woken up and already felt very tired. She had restless dreams all night. She could not remember what they were about; just remembered they were not pleasant.

She went to the bathroom to wash and dress, putting on her usual clothes. Ate their breakfast (ignoring her host parents, who looked at her as if she was going to bite them) and start to run to school. Usually in the morning the Autobots did not take their partners to school, since Miko and Jack lived nearby and could make the journey on foot (the exception was Raf, who live a little further from the building, so often, Bumblebee would give a ride to his friend).

Most of the teenagers were busy in their own activities, but still, several began to whisper when they saw the Japanese girl. "Yeah, yeah, I dress like a delinquent! Yeah, I love heavy metal. So what? Anyone who listens to classical music will never do anything wrong? A person who wears piercings will always be a junkie?" Miko snarled inwardly. "Why is everyone in this town such idiots?!"

"Hey Miko! Good thing I found you." Jack called while they were in the hallway, picking up the books for the next period. "I have to tell you, that while I was in the bathroom, I heard Vince talking with his friends, saying that he plan to ask you on a date again."

"WHAT?!" shouted.

"He thinks you're just playing hard." he said rolling his eyes.

"ARGH! Me?! Playing hard?! He was never dumped before?!" she growled, running her hands through your hair.

"I have no idea. But I have to give you a warning: Even if Vince is very unpleasant to you, try to control yourself a bit."

"Why should I do that?" she asked grumpy.

"Because, his father is one of the most important and wealthy men in town. You can have problems if you get into a fight with him."

"Says the guy who covered his whole car with hamburger," pointed out with a laugh.

"Smokescreen convinced me it was a good idea! And besides, he never finds out that it was me who did that!" He said in embarrassment. "Anyway, try to do nothing."

"Again, why should I do that? What can his father do?" she shrugged nonchalantly.

"How about, have a chat with your host parents and as a punishment, they forbid you from playing your guitar or even going out, so you cannot go to Autobot Base anymore?" The boy suggested, knowing that all the things that would annoy her friend, those were the main ones.

"... Okay, you convinced me. I promise I will behave and even if Vince act like the idiot he is, I will not kick his 'special place'... even though I would be doing a good to mankind if I did that." she mumbled the last part.

"Great. See you later."

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Thanks to Jack's warning, Miko spent all day running away from Vince. Every time she saw him, tried to hide or flee in the opposite direction. All this time, the theme song of "Mission Impossible" has been playing in her head.

"End of class! Finally!" sighed contentedly, already heading for the exit. But unfortunately, Lady Luck got tired of staying with Miko and decided to take a little break.

"Hello, Miko," Vince said, appearing right in front of her.

"Slag! I just get distract for a second!" growled in her head "Er... hi Vince," replied, trying not to sound so disgusted.

"It's good that I finally found you. I've been looking for you all day."

"Oh really? What a coincidence, I've been running away from you all day!" Her inner voice growled "Really? Why?"

"Well Miko, I got your move. So I decided to make things easier for you." The redhead said smugly, putting his arm around Miko's shoulders.

"Get this arm off or I'll tear it off with my teeth!" she wanted to scream in his face. She could feel her teeth grinding against each other, but disguised herself by pretending to be smiling. "Move?"

"Yes, your move. Your act of being the bad girl who does not care for boys. I understood. But that's enough now. No need to do this anymore. I think I know how you feel about me," he said with a convinced smile.

"'Oh, you have no idea." She said, saying the same thing as her inner voice, just tried to disguise the sarcastic tone. "ARGH! Jack, I'll kill you for making me make that promise!"

"So... how about we go to my car? I know a great place to... talk," he said, not even waiting for Miko to give the answer and leading her out of the building.

"Translation: A place where there will be a lot of people there, probably your friends, so you can show off with me and say that I'm your new girlfriend... HELL NO!" her inner voice screamed and flounce, feeling that that was the last straw. "Wow, Vince, I do not even know what to say!" said, still controlling her voice.

"Say 'oh, yes'," he said convinced, leaning in to kiss the girl.

"Um ... I don't think so. But thanks' for asking!" And ran off while the redhead continue to move, not noticing he was going to kiss the wall.

The young woman ran to the parking lot, searching for her alien partner. "Bulkhead! Where are you?" cried in dramatic despair as she realized he had not yet arrived. Where he was?

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

A few minutes before...

Raf had left the building and was already going to Bumblebee. "Hi Bee. Are you all right?"

[Not too much, Raf.] The scout answer with his characteristic beeps, in a weary sigh.

"Why? What happened?" He asked worriedly.

[Optimus asked not to tell, but we had a serious problem involving the Decepticons. We're trying to figure it out... but we have not had results yet.]

"Has something happened to Bulkhead? Is that why he has not come yet?" He asked, remembering that Bulkhead had been off patrol just before they went home.

[I cannot fool you, right little buddy? But yes. The Decepticons have Bulkhead. Ratchet is looking for Nemesis right now, but in the meantime, we thought it would be better not say anything to Miko.]

"I hope you find him fast. Miko cam be more observant than I am, and if she finds out that we lie to her... 'Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned'." he said, using William Congreve's famous phrase.

[Speaking of, did she have detention? She's taking so long.]

"I don't know, she didn't say anything. I'll call and ask her… Ah, never mind, there she comes," he said, going to pick his cell phone, but did not need it when he saw Miko leave the building and began to wave through the window to indicate that it was for her to come.

But both thought it was very strange when they saw Vince next to her. And Miko's expression seemed to mean "Oh, God! What did I do to deserve this?!" until in a moment, it seemed that the bully was going to kiss her. Miko swerved quickly, making Vince kiss the wall. She stared at the parking lot, looking for Bulkhead until she saw Raf and Bee. Then ran off, as if devil himself was after her.

"Run for it, Bee!" She shouted in one breath as she entered. Despite knowing that there was no real danger, the yellow Autobot automatically reacted to the girl's voice and accelerated, leaving a cloud of dust behind.

"Miko! What happened?" The boy asked in surprise.

"Sorry about that! It's just that I swear that, if I stayed a second more close to Vince, my brain would melt!"

[What did he do?] Bumblebee asked, being translated by Raf.

"Nothing much except be a sexist, annoying and bigheaded!" She growled, clenching the fists. "Can you believe he asked me out, again? Because he didn't believe I was being serious when I said I didn't want to be his girlfriend!"

[I bet it was a very nice conversation.] The autobot commented sarcastically. Although Miko did not understand, she managed to guess what he said. "You have no idea." Sighed in response. "Hey, Bee, why Bulk didn't come?" asked.

[Er... he... he... he decided to do an extra hour on the patrol!] He said, saying the first thing that came into his head. For the first time, he thanked the fact that his vocal processors did not work, because he was sure that if Miko could understand him, she would find out that he was lying.

"Really? Okay, but I wish he'd let me know sooner. I don't like it when I'm the last to know," commented, putting the feet on the dashboard. She could not see, but Raf was looking at the panel (where Bumblebee could probably see both of them) with a look that said "I told you so."

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Hey, Doc-bot!" Miko greeted as they arrived at the base.

"Hm." The medic simply replied. He looked exhausted.

"What do you have, Doc? It looks like you've done overnight overtime double." Asked.

"I'm fine, Miko. Just tired," he replied, not taking his eyes off the computer. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have to work."

"He didn't even say for me not call him 'Doc'. Something's wrong," she thought worried. "I'm going to call Bulkhead. Maybe he knows what's going on." Decided, picking up her cell phone. It's not as if she was going to disturb the Wrecker's patrol with a quick phone call. However, she did not hear a signal and had to give up. Without having anything to do, decided to play games. However, the mood at the base was so heavy that she began to feel uncomfortable. All the bots were silent, their faces very serious and worried. What was wrong?

"I wish Bulkhead would come back soon...," she could only think.

Curiosity: The Fairy Tale of "Beauty and the Beast" is actually based in a true story. The real "Beast" was a man named Petrus Gonsalvus, (born in 1537) who suffered from a genetic condition known as hypertrichosis (also known as Ambras syndrome), which is defined by an abnormal amount of hair growth on any part of the body in excess of the regular amount present in people of the same race, age and gender. In Gonsalvus' case, it affected his entire body. It has also been referred to informally as werewolf syndrome because the appearance is akin to the mythical werewolf. He was shipped to King Henry II of France as a gift for the king's coronation in 1547.
Fortunately, King Henry II did not see Gonsalvus as a freak that should be kept in a cage. The king recognized Gonsalvus' calm demeanor and decided to try an experiment. He would attempt to educate and transform him into a gentleman. The boy was given clothes and cooked meals. He was taught to speak, read, and write in not just one, but three languages, receiving the education of a nobleman.

The real Beauty and the Beast met after Gonsalvus' mentor and protector, King Henry II, was killed in a jousting match on July 10, 1559. Gonsalvus became the property of the king's widow, Catherine de Medici, who became ruler and decided to conduct her own experiment with Gonsalvus. She wondered what would happen if her "beast" married a beautiful woman. Would they conceive little beasts? She found a wife for Gonsalvus, a young maiden also named Catherine, who was the daughter of a royal court servant.

Petrus Gonsalvus met his wife Catherine for the first time on their wedding day. The pair had seven children, with four of the seven suffering from their father's condition, hypertrichosis. Petrus and Catherine were married for more than 40 years, with Catherine passing in 1623 and Petrus several years prior.
