Chapter eight: To tell a secret
"Sonny, you're going to have to tell the others about this." Bulkhead said as I was driving behind him.
"I know, Bulkhead. How are you doing in here, Aurora?" I asked her
"You're probably the best looking Autobot car ever! You're even purple!" she complimented.
"Thanks, Aurora. But, Bulkhead they're going to be so mad that I didn't tell them before!" I explained.
"Sonny, you are going to tell them! I'll make sure of it!" Bulkhead stated.
"When we made it to base I let Aurora get out of me before I transformed. All of the Autobots were staring at me.
"Oh, Scrap!" I exclaimed.
"Now would be a good time, Sonny!" Bulkhead whispered to me.
"This isn't what it looks like, guys!" I said to the Autobots.
"You're a cybertronian!" Ratchet stated.
"Alright, so it's kind of what it looks like!" I told them. They were staring at me as if it was what it looked like.
"Okay okay! It is what it looks like, but I'm not sure how I do it! All I know is that Starscream gave me a piece of an "Allspark" that went inside of me and now I get like this sometimes or I'm in my normal human form. And sometimes I get these weird headaches!" I explained.
"Wait, you said that a fragment of the Allspark went inside of you, correct?" Ratchet asked in an excited voice. I nodded. Ratchet's jaw dropped and he stepped back.
"What? What is it?" I asked and worried.
"At first I thought I was imagining things, but now I see." Ratchet circled around me.
"See what?" I asked.
"Your destiny, Sonny! You are the one that can sense when a piece of the Allspark is near. That's what the headaches are. You are the one who can morph into an Autobot and transform into a car. You are…the Transformer Girl!" Ratchet stated.
I froze with fear. I can't be the girl that Ratchet is talking about. If I am that girl, then what do I do? I thought.
"Uh…Sonny? Are you okay?" Bulkhead asked.
Suddenly, I morphed back into a girl because of my fear. I walked away from them. I was scared that I would have to face the Decepticons again or even worse…Megatron!
Bulkhead was about to run after me, but Optimus stopped him with a gentle hand on Bulkhead's shoulder and said, "Give her some time, Bulkhead. All of that information that she never knew before might have frightened her."
Bulkhead nodded. Aurora ran after me like the good friend she is and found me outside of base on top of a rock throwing pebbles at the other rocks.
"Are you okay, Sonny?" she asked me with her soft caring voice. I just ignored her and continued throwing pebbles. She climbed up on the rock that I was sitting on and sat down next to me. Aurora just watched me pitch the pebbles in my hands.
"Is there something you want, Aurora?" I said in what was obviously a fake calm voice.
"Look, I know how you feel. Trying to avoid it won't help you. Trust me, I learned that the hardway!" She stated.
"How do you know what I'm going through?" I asked.
"I'd rather not talk about it right now." She said as she slid down the rock. I followed her and said, "If I had to tell Autobots my secret, you can tell at least me your secret!" I stated as I landed in front of her.
"Fine I'll tell you." She continued as we sat down, "I have these voices in my head. One of them is named Karnage. She loves sharp weapons, torture chambers and…"
"Why did I have to ask!" I stood up.
She pulled me back down and said, "Look, I just learned that Karnage is the Angel of Darkness or known as Unicron's daughter. If I tell the Autobots, they would go nuts! They'll be afraid that Karnage will take over at any second! Please, Sonny let's keep this between us only."
"Oh, alright! It would be kind of odd to see the Autobots scared of a little girl, wouldn't it?" I said.
She nodded.
"Come on. Let's go back inside." I told her.
Meanwhile with Starscream:
"Yes, good job, Soundwave! Can you track where the conversation was? What do you mean no? How could you lose the signal? Unless…those smarty-bots! They put a field around their base so that there's no tracking them down! Well, Autobots now that I know your little secret and now that I've heard the human's conversation, I'll get to you through what's most important to you…the girls!" Starscream said with his snake-like voice and an evil grin that stretched across his face.
