Transformers: Its in her eyes.
Chapter Eight: Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto
"Wait, what?" Alice asked obviously vary lost. She sat down across from the other two and rubbed her forehead.
"Maybe its best for BumbleBee to explain. He didn't really tell us everything after all." Suggested Mikaela as she took a sip from her mug.
"Yeah, then we can all come out of the dark." The two of them stood up just as the sound of crying came from up stairs.
"It's Jazz. Don't worry, I'll check him this time." Mikaela sighed, earning a kiss on the cheek from Sam.
"Jazz?"
"Our son. He's only a few months old." Alice smiled at the glint of pride that flashed in Sam's eyes as she followed him into the back yard.
What Alice saw next was something she would only expect to see on those early morning cartoon shows.
The car that had followed her around for a week, picked her up from the park, and drove her all the way here, was now standing over her as a towering, yellow, robot-giant. Of course she shrieked and stumbled back. Who wouldn't have the same reaction? Sam put a hand on her shoulder.
"Yeah, that's basically how I reacted when I first met him too." He grinned and patted her shoulder in a comforting way. "Hey BumbleBee, care to share with us why you brought Alice here?" The yellow robot, known as BumbleBee tilted his head to the side before answering.
"Prime was looking for her ever since the All Spark was destroyed." Its- Or rather, His voice sounded exactly how Alice excepted it to sound, robotic.
"Why?" Sam asked he seemed a little more tense at the mention of the All Spark. BumbleBee simply shrugged.
"I wasn't informed why." Sam sighed and rubbed the back of his head. He glanced over at Alice as if wondering what she had to do with the All Spark.
"Did you already tell Optimus you found her?" BumbleBee nodded, "And?"
"He asked to see her tomorrow morning." Alice looked back and forth at the two with a worried expression.
"Who?!" She squeaked tugging gently at his shirt.
"The leader of the Autobots. Don't worry their the good guys." Alice's nerves settled a little and she let out a sigh.
"Well, it looks like you'll be staying here for the night….I'll go set up the guest room for you." He then walked inside leaving Alice with BumbleBee. She bit her lip and glanced at the door then up at the giant sized robot.
"I feel like I've met you before…but that's crazy. I've never met a giant robot before." She said with a small laugh. BumbleBee didn't answer he just shifted uneasily. "…I'm Alice." She walked up and gently touched BumbleBee's leg. "Nice to meet you, I guess." She gave off a stiff laugh feeling how awkward it was between the two of them.
"Nice to meet you too…" BumbleBee answered before backing up a little. "You need rest for tomorrow." He said and she nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, I guess your right." She waved to him and walked back inside, leaving BumbleBee to give off a noise that was similar to a sigh.
Now rested in a comfortable, warm bed, Alice turned on her side and squeezed the pillow before slowly drifting off into her dark dream world…..
Alice stared off into a wasteland of nothingness. Made of only sand and ruble. She stood on top of a cliff over looking what used to be a city.
The sky was red and everything around her was cloudy and dark. The city buildings were destroyed and in ruin's. Abandoned cars were scattered all over along with trash. Alice felt streams of hot tears flow down her cheeks as she looked over the horrible scene. What sounded like harsh, evil, laughter came from behind her. She quickly whipped around to stare up at another towering robot. This one looked nothing like BumbleBee though…..
He was a dark silver and black color. His vary being just oozed evil. A name appeared in her mind causing her to say it aloud.
"M-Megatron?" She asked staring up at the terrifying looking monster. He laughed even louder at the mention of his name.
"YES GIRL?" Alice fell backwards onto her backside as she stared up at 'Megatron'. "WHY LOOK SO SURPRISED HUMAN? YOU MADE THIS WORLD." Alice shook her head as she choked back a sob.
"N-No, H-How could I do something-" She looked back over her shoulder at a heap of bodies and was able to recognized two of them as Sam and his wife Mikaela. ".....like this."
