Several days later, it finally happened. I forgot where I was again, Sam disappeared and so did 'Kaela. Miles and I worried like mother hens and gossiped with a few other people (including Miles' mom and his aunt) about what happened.
"The government claims that it was a terrorist attack, but was it really? Or was it something more?" Mom clicked off the T.V. just when Mikaela was running past a still intact camera footage that the news station had somehow gotten ahold of.
The attack on Mission city ended a couple hours ago, and I guess that they still had Mikaela and Sam in for questioning.
During that time, Miles and I have been using each other for support because honestly, my very being in this dimension could have changed something and maybe somebody died and I don't know and something did change and that's why I have a Transformer in my garage.
"Sweetie? Calm down. She'll be ok. Mikaela will be back before you know it."
I wasn't worried about her.
I was more worried about that silver Autobot that was (quiet literally) throwing himself into battle on the screen behind Mikaela.
Mikaela would be perfectly fine, and if she wasn't, I am going to Mission city to kick ass and take names myself, not messing with the timeline be damned.
Maybe I was being a little dramatic, but really? Who cares? I don't, that's for sure.
I shoved down the rest of my breakfast debating whether or not to go down to her anyways.
'Hmm. I should probably go. Maybe bring him too…' And then, the deciding factor had happened.
It turns out, I would be going, whether I wanted to or not.
And Mikaela told them (read: demanded) to pick me up.
They brought Miles too.
The hangar was impossibly huge, and I couldn't wait to see my little cousin and beat Sam with my small foam bat that I got from his mom for Christmas. It was dark purple with my name written all fancy in gold on it, and I loved using it. Since I always seemed to need it when I don't have I made a bat strap that kept it out of sight snuggled up to my back so that I would always have it with me. It made up for my lack of physical strength.
Plus it was just fun to beat up Sam with Alice Jr. with his mom's permission. We had actually made a game out of it one year, it was rather fun.
"Hey. Alice? What do you think the government wants us for?" Miles asked me. I shrugged and snorted.
"Maybe our rad climbing skills?" we laughed quietly at my joke trying to choke down the nervousness. I knew what we were doing here. It was because of Mikaela and whoever was hiding out in my garage. But he didn't. He didn't have a reason to get mixed up in this.
Yeah, I was afraid. I was afraid for myself and Mikaela and Sam and Miles and everyone else mixed up in this, but I couldn't tell them anything.
I can't.
Who knows, maybe I was being selfish or whatever, but it needs to play out like how it was supposed to.
Which means that I shouldn't be here.
"ALLY BEAR!" Someone familiar squealed and tackled me to the ground, causing many of the people in the room to chuckle at her, making my cheeks heat up in embarrassment.
"Oh my god can you not?" I mumbled into her shoulder, making her laugh in relief. "What do you want?"
She continued to laugh, and that gradually calmed down into giggles before she stopped. "Holy shit you'll never believe what happened?!" She shrieked as I smirked.
"You and Witwicky finally go together? Do I need to bring out Alice jr. anytime soon? Can I beat a bitch?"
Her face flushed and she buried her face into my shoulder. "Shut up short stuff. Now COME ON!" she pulled herself up along with me dragging me off to who knows where. "Honestly, I can't believe you… Yes, cousin, we started dating. No, cousin, you may not bring out Alice Jr.. No cousin, you may not beat a bitch. Sam already went through a lot, no need to add a bit stomach bruise to that list."
I pouted. I had my hand on Alice jr., but I slowly took my hand off of her handle as she said that. "Damnit…"
They had already taken Miles off to where Mikaela was taking me. Which was another giant room. This time it had many assorted cars. Er, well… not really. But you get it.
She grinned and held my hand tightly as she continued dragging me further and further into the room.
"Alice, these are the Autobots."
And then they transformed.
I raised an eyebrow. "You dragged me out here for this?" I asked her, sheer boredom and slight irritation colored my voice.
One of them snickered. "I like this chick."
"I could be sleeping at home but noooo, you had to drag me out here, using the government to get me no less, to meet your new friends. Nice, Kaela, nice." My voice was heavy with sarcasm, and she rolled her eyes at me.
"How are you not shocked?" I snorted at her.
"It's a big universe. Aliens where bound to happen. Humans cannot be that narcissistic to believe that we are the only living things in this universe. Or any universe to be honest. Personally, I don't think that they're the only aliens either." I shrugged.
"Plus I think I had one in my garage for a few weeks now." I mumbled to myself, frowning and rubbed my covered wrists.
"But seriously, I don't really think I could care less right now. As long as your safe and I don't have to beat a bitch have all the fun you want."
Leave a review, it shows love and fuels the flames of story writing.
