"Tha who?!" Terrwyn had her hands clung tightly around the seatbelt, feeling her body swing to the sides as Optimus Prime evaded the bullets. Or whatever those robots shot with!
No reply came, however. This guy must be very concentrated... Who wouldn't be when driving past bushes, corners, whatever there was on a road besides cars because they conveniently were nowhere to be seen.
The blonde fell to the side, her head hitting the driver's seat, and her back hurt because the side of those chairs were quite painful when you hit them so hard. "Ah, you watch it!" Another bump, hurting her back once more.
"Let me out!" Terrwyn was not liking this. Rollercoasters were bad enough, alright!
She saw lights flicker, trees pass, and then heard the roar of what could only be alien.
Her eyes shut tightly as another bump made her unable to sit up. He was being too careless!
A tear left the girl's eye as she wished for this to be over already. A Decepticon was chasing them because of what? Did she do anything wrong?! ...Then again, he did come the moment she... said Megatron... and... No, that couldn't be it. They wouldn't know what she had said!
With a lot of force, the truck stopped, making Terrwyn roll into the most awkward position she could think of. Her body was twisted in the belt and her right half almost lay on the ground.
The belt slipped away from her body, having her fall completely and hitting her head against the dashboard.
"Eff you!" She exclaimed loudly as her hand went up to rub her head, when the car around her began to change. Was he... transforming with her in it?!
Terrwyn felt dizzy, laying on the robot's hand with a slightly injured body and a mind full of questions.
"A mere human won't stop me, Optimus..." The silver one that stood before them stated.
"I believe you have a history with this femme." Prime's voice was louder to her, but that might be because his mouth was so close.
Now she recognized him to be Megatron... Yet his face... He missed half of it! How gross...
"Why would I allow such a pathetic human to be an ally?" His claws were extracted as a smirk covered his faceplates.
Terrwyn cowered back in the huge thing's hand, her watering eyes now filled with terror as well. Like this, Megatron was even scarier. He would be furious towards her about what she revealed, perhaps even... killing her... Or her father...
"Then you shall not be allowed to harm her, either." The leader sounded so calm about it as he gently put the pale Terrwyn on the pavement below them.
The blonde hopped off, yelping as the huge feet of Optimus Prime floated above her head and came down... before her.
"You are weak, Optimus... What happened to putting our race before any other? Do you not care about our survival anymore?" Was that true? Terrwyn peeked from behind the metal, glancing up at the conversation that was going on.
The Prime was battle ready. "If you did value our survival so much, you would have never begun that war!"
In a swift and unexpected move, the blue and red guy lifted his left foot to attempt a kick on Megatron. It was the foot that Terrwyn was still holding, making her scream as she flew above the road now.
The leg hit nothing, as Megatron was quick enough to dodge.
Her arms wrapped themselves tightly around some sort of pole she could find in the metal structure, bracing herself for whatever would come next.
"Terrwyn, get off!" Prime shouted as he blocked Megatron's blade with one of his own.
Yet the blonde was screaming too loudly to know what to do. She was panicking, and not just a little.
This was a sure disadvantage to Optimus Prime, now unable to move that one leg for he could not risk killing her. It was exactly the leg his enemy went after, too, for now it was made into a weakness.
"Please stop the fight! Please, please, please!" The blondine was begging now, clinging even more to the pole that seemed to move upwards and down again from time to time, having her fingers slip and try to grab something else before she could get her pole back again to hug tightly. "I'll take back everything I ever said! Just pleaaaase!"
Her bravery was completely gone at this point, and she felt the food come up to her throat again. That one moment when she dared to look, all she saw was colors flying around her. "No! Ah! Do not want!" Her legs also got around the rod now, hanging onto her life.
The Prime was hit hard in his stomach, flying backwards, being unable to keep up that leg. It scratched on the stone, making a loud screeching noise.
"S-shut up!" Terrwyn's cries got louder now, her voice beginning to fail her. "I beg you goddesses, safe me from this terrible death! I do not want to die in a battle! That's not stylish!"
With that, her arms began to fail her, losing the strenght they needed to hang on. With a thud, she landed on the road as well, the muscles in her leg being stretched because they held on longer than her arms did.
Optimus stood carefully, being sure to glance at the girl to see if she was alright. Megatron did not leave him a chance, his gun already pointed and fired.
It hit the Prime in his shoulder, scaringly close to a vital wire in his neck.
"Argh..." His hand went up to grab it and keep everything together. Energon began to flow out, covering the ground in it.
The rescue came, however, as multiple cars came speeding towards them.
"Always the coward." Megatron bellowed with amusement as his claw picked up the knocked out girl. Silence suited her better than the screaming... "If she really is such a weakness to you, perhaps she is of better use to me..."
With these words, the Decepticon warlord took off into the sky. Yes, he had been damaged after Egypt, but his flying ability was still there.
"You fragging Con!" Sideswipe had changed by now, firing after their enemy in a hopeless attempt to still stop him.
"Optimus, are you alright?!" Ratchet was quickly kneeled by the fallen Prime's side. It didn't look good, that was for sure...
"I'll be fine, Ratchet..." The leader's optics turned towards the blue sky in which Megatron disappeared. "Our suspicions have been concluded; she does work for the Decepticons."
Bumblebee beeped to that, then used some radio qoutes.: "After all we've done together. She really did betray us."
"Hmpf, I told you." Ironhide was grumpy about it. "They can have her. She's got the attitude."
"Don't be so harsh." The silver guy rolled towards Bumblebee and Ironhide. "She might not have a choice, knowing the Cons."
"Then there's still hope for us." Bumblebee's radio said in a different voice than the first two sentences.
"Look at what she did to Prime." Something the weapon specialist couldn't ever forgive was when an ally got hurt thanks to a traitor! Especially if that ally was their leader himself! "Next time I see her, I'll blast her into little human pieces!"
"All of you, calm down..." Talking about the leader, he was standing, if not weakly and with the help of their medic. "We shall discuss this with our human allies before taking any actions."
"But Prime, they'll mark her a traitor!" Sideswipe knew that maybe she was, but if there was someone who manipulated everyone into thinking what he wanted them to think... It was Megatron.
"That's exactly what she is!" Ironhide snapped towards the silver, not liking his opinion about the matter.
Sideswipe rolled backwards, not wanting to be hit against the head or anything. His hands were lifted in a defending manner. "I'm just sayin'. She might be forced, ya know."
Bumblebee's radio tuned in again. "There is only one who knows the answer to that."
"Indeed. Lets not dwell on maybes." This was the leader's final statement. He changed his attention to the communication link with the base. "Optimus Prime to Major Lennox. I am in need of air transport." For transforming would be impossible, according to Ratchet.
"And quickly!" The medic added to it. "He should be treated as soon as possible!" Not like he wasn't doing anything already. A field medic had first aid tools installed in his body for emergencies.
"Where... am I?" My voice felt weak as I attempted to speak. That what was supporting my body felt... soft. Was I on a bed?
"Terrwyn."
A deep voice. Actually, a roar was more like it. Would it be a demon?! A kidnapper for my money?
"Whatever you want... you won't get it!" I breathed angrily, but it came out far more infirm than what I strived for.
A blatant sound reached my ears, and I groaned loudly.
"Wake up, fleshling..." Was that a whisper? In my... ear?! Was this a rapist?!
"No, get away!" I was whining now, trying to move onto my side and away from the whispers. I couldn't, though. An agonizing feeling shot through me as I tried. Pain... That was the right word.
How had I received this injury, whatever it was? All I could remember was a strange dream of flying around and clinging to something cold and metallic.
"Get up!"
Something snatched my back and lifted me into a sitting position, having me scream out, suffering from bruises and cuts. Maybe worse.
At this time, my eyes were opened, and what I saw was not at all what I had in mind. A big effing robot!
One I knew, at that...
"Megatron..." I gasped, breathing in deeply for air as my lungs felt empty, though my throat was hoarse as well.
"It has been a while." ...Was he pleased about that or not?
"Y-yeah..." Then it came to me... "What happened to your face?!"
"The Prime you met... He did that." It was either a silent roar or a promise for vengeance. I would put my money on the latter.
"Oh... when you fought?" As in, with me there?
"It happened in Egypt. But enough of that..." His finger moved behind my back, making me howl in pain again, even if all he did was move just slightly.
"You are injured."
Yes, and that's your fault! Or so I wanted to say... But I couldn't. Fear overtook me.
"The price you should pay to revealing the little secret we had... Remember?" Once again his finger moved, and I couldn't keep in my cries.
What was he talking about? Little secret? I never revealed to Optimus that...! Well, kind of... But not really! I changed to fashion! A holy thing that could not help me right now...
I granted him a small nod, tears in my eyes again. Or had they been there all along? It dripped down my face, and even if I'd hate myself for crying, I just... couldn't stop.
"You're a little broken, are you not?" His other hand came up to me, and I moved back in horror. What was he going to do?! Ouch, that hurt... Moving hurt...
With a loud chuckle, a finger came up to my cheeks and caressed it softly. As if he tried to take away my tears...
"A little broken human. And yet..." The top of his finger moved to the side of my face, stroking through my hair softly. "You do not fail to amuse me."
I gulped now, rather uncomfortable in his hands. This amused him? Would that mean that he was going to get me hurt more often, just for his entertainment?!
"You... bitch." That was all I managed to say, feeling it move behind my back again, this time more forcefully. In terrible pain I cried again. This... thing had ruined my life! It had been so perfect, then he came along! Or rather, that chicken bird thing did...
Where was I, anyway? I could not turn my head, because even that would pain me. It felt stiff, too.
"So much foolish bravery." He continued with the finger that was in my hair, now letting it slowly travel down my neck and side.
Another grunt of discomfort left my lips. Did he not see I was suffering here?! Wait, he did... And he was enjoying it... "I think I preferred the chicken..."
"Really? He would do far worse, would he be given the permission..." His red eye thingies lowered to stare me in the face.
"Then why didn't you give him that?" My throat was closing, though I wasn't sure why. My tummy, well... There was an odd feeling inside of it. Tickles, nervousness...
"Because he should not break the toy before I do."
I got goosebumps at that answer. Break the toy? I was a toy now?! "Once I'll get out of here... I'm so going to kill you all..." Even if I never could... Maybe that truck would help me...
Loud laughter filled this room, and I noticed it was rather hollow. Not only that, but while laughing I was moved too.. That sting in my back, what was it?!
"You may try, fleshling... Though that broken back will stop you for a while."
"B-broken back?!" So that's why her neck hurt to move, and everything just... felt painful. The sting... How had she managed to break her spine?!
"We already took measures needed to save your life." What those were, he probably wouldn't tell me unless it was to pester me further...
"In any case, you should rest, Terrwyn."
This time he was far more gentle when moving me back down. Though I did squirm, it hurt far less than being pulled upwards.
The finger left, and I could not see if he was still there or not. To me it seemed so very likely that he would leave me on my own, yet I had this odd feeling of being watched...
I might never know, as it would be bad to move my head now. A deep sigh...
What had become of me? Few... weeks ago? I still cared about the latest fashion! Now I had to try and save my own life? Or was I simply being spared?
And school... What would my friends think? How would they survive without me being there to give them advice on so many topics!
Thinking about advice, what would I tell myself right now? In bad situations, always think of something that cheers you up!
Fashion... Hm. Once I get home, and everything is done and over with, I'm going to go shopping. Find out what came to the stores in my absence, get a nice manicure... Ahh, that sounded so good.
A small smile covered my lips when I closed my eyes, imagining the nice feel of people doing your hair, massaging your body... That was where I belonged, not here... Not in the hands of gigantic robot aliens...
[] Yup, I'm back! And even though I feel like I reuse too many words (curse you English for not being my main language), I am in love with this chapter. 3
