Transformers: Family facing the Fallen chapter 3
(Optimus Prime's Journal entry)
Tonight one of my worst fears came true; Marcella was injured when coming home with Chromia, as Blackout interrupted their ride home. Chromia lost the fight but was barely alive when Ratchet came to her aid and brought both femmes back to base. Thankfully, Marcella was not badly injured but she still could have had much worse happen to her.
"Optimus, do you consider me lucky to have gotten out of this with only a broken leg?" my daughter asked me after she had her cast put on and was given crutches to move around.
"I do not know but I certainly hope that you and your siblings do not have to ever get caught in that kind of situation again." I told her.
I fear many terrible things will happen in the coming days but perhaps there might be a little hope...

Throughout the next 2 to 3 weeks Marcy would be using crutches to get around. Not that she minded since Darcy would help her with carrying her books and homework from school and Lavender had volunteered to help the young girl get her cast changed when it was needed as well as help her bathe. It had now been about 2 days since the human teen had broken her leg and she was now getting washed off by the femme medic, who was using her human holoform.
"Thank you Lavender." Marcy said.
"You're welcome dear." Lavender replied. "It's not your fault that the Decepticons will hurt anyone to get what they want."
"I know but still..." the human girl sighed as she was rinsed off and taken out of the tub carefully.
Once Marcy had a new cast on and her pajamas, she hobbled on her crutches towards her room where she found the door already opened courtesy of Elita One.
"Thanks for doing that." the teenager said.
"You're welcome Marcella; you know to shout if you need anything else." Elita smiled and once Marcy was comfortably in her bed and asleep, the femme commander turned off the light and closed the door. All of the Wilson siblings would be escorted to and from school by the Autobots from now on rather than riding the bus for their own safety. Who knew what could happen even despite the precautions...
Author's note: Yes, it's way too short. Sorry about that. I'll make the next chapter longer.
