[]Yeah, I have a new found love to write this story after seeing Dark of the Moon. Anyway, enjoy~![]
It was nice to finally get a good look around Starscream's little hub. Everything was so different from Megatron's base, yet similar. Maybe it was just the sinking feeling in my heart about this whole ordeal.
Leaning against the cool wall I couldn't help but let my mind wander to what things were like before all of.. this. Before I had became a special agent, and worked with Megatron. Pushing those painful memories away I sought for more pleasant ones.
"Daddy!" My pudgy little hands reached for my father's bearded face. That large warm grin greeted me as he picked me up and spun me around. I squealed with joy urging him to go 'faster, faster'.
My father laughed sitting down and hugging me to his chest.
"My little baby girl.. You're going to be so beautiful and wonderful when you grow up, I can feel it."
"Daddy! Stop it, I'm going to be a ninja when I get big!" I huffed pushing away his arms. He chuckled ruffling my dark hair.
"Right of course, you're going to beat up all of the bad guys right?"
"Yeah!" I cheered smiling up at him.
"Ninja or not, you're still going to be my little girl..."
. . .
My father glared down at me tapping his foot in an annoyed manner.
"Mai, how many times have I told you-"
"To not run off alone, blah blah. I know Dad! I'm fine by myself though, after your training I can take on anyone!"
"I don't care, Mai you're my little girl and if anything happened to you.." He trailed off looking away from me.
"Papa.. I promise nothing will happen to me."
My Father patted my head, "Please just be more careful, my old heart can't handle the excitement." He shuffled back into our home.
Nodding I followed behind him.
'I'll be careful, Papa.. Just for you.'
. . .
Growling I pushed myself to my feet and began to search for my 'partner'. Searching for old memories wasn't good for me. I needed a distraction or.. Something.
"Starscream!" I called out as I rounded a corner. "Damnit, Starscream!"
"What? I'm busy!" I heard his irritated voice call back.
"Well I need some new clothes, a shower, something! I feel and must smell like a I dunno what!"
He didn't respond, but did reveal himself. Walking out of a room in the long hall in front of me. Stomping up to me he lifted me up by my collar and dangled me before his optics.
"Listen, human. I have better things to do then baby sit you. So what is it that you need so I can get back to my work?"
Folding my arms over my chest I raised a brow.
"More important than moi? Hmph. Whatever, but I do need some new clothes, a shower, and something to eat. It's not like I can magically find a Wal Mart in here."
"A Wal-what? Ugh, whatever yes yes I'll get your things. Just wait in main hall." The seeker grumbled setting me back on the ground. Giving me a last look he hurried back into the room he was previously in.
Shrugging my shoulders I began my walk back to the main hall, whistling idly. I was also careful not to get run over by the many drones patrolling around the area. Some even gave me such odd looks, which was rather creepy.
Now that I thought about it, these drones looked a lot more advanced than the ones at Megatron's base. Starscream couldn't be that smart to build his own bots.. could he? Well, I didn't think so anyway.
Finally reaching my destination I sat and waited. Twiddling my thumbs idly I casually glanced around the hall. I was beginning to get used to the 'Evil Overlord' setting 'Screamer was trying to pull off. Stifling a laugh as a few images of Disney villains passed through my head.
"What are you giggling about?"
Snapping my head up I saw Starscream looking at me with his head cocked to the side.
"Nothin' just remembering a joke, did you get the things I needed?"
Without a word he picked me up and set me on a table next to him. Producing a silver box from, I guess, subspace he placed it next to me and looked at me expectantly.
"Well?"
"Well what?"
"Go clean yourself up."
"With what smartass?"
He pointed to the silver box and looked at me again.
"Okay.." I wandered up to the rectangle and studied it. It was completely plain on the outside although there was a sliding door on the front. Pulling the door I gave Starscream a last look before stepping inside.
Inside said box I could see a shower head, some bars of soap and other things I needed to be clean. Pulling the door open again I looked at the seeker who was still watching me.
"Okay you somehow got me a shower, what about clothes?"
"Easy."
Again he produced an object from subspace. A duffel bag.
My duffel bag.
Leaping at the familiar object I rooted through it finding all of the belongings I had backed before.
"How did you.."
"You left it behind."
"And you thought it was a good idea to take it?"
"At the time, yes."
"Whatever..." Pulling the bag over to the shower I glared at him. "Well get out of here! I need to do my business!"
"Meh." At that he left me to my own agenda.
Slipping back into the shower I tested the knobs on the shower, seeing the water worked just like any other shower. All of this was strange to me, but I couldn't complain, I was taking a hot shower. Screw everything else I wanna be clean.
Stripping down I tossed my old clothes outside and allowed the hot water to rinse off all of my previous adventures. All of the blood, sweat, and grime. And wow, it felt wonderful.
[] Wooooo. Filler. More stuff next time. Reviews blah blah. []
