Thanks for the reviews and favorites! The story now has a mind of its own and I'm just letting it go. It was hard to find a good stopping point in this chapter. I'll be working on another story after this one, but not sure if I want to use IronHide or Crosshairs or Drift.

Chapter 6 Home

Ash

"Starscream, I really have to pee," I said. I had been holding my pee in for a really long time and it was getting uncomfortable.

"Can't you hold it?"

"No, so unless you want me to pee in you, I suggest taking me to the woods or a gas station, like now." I felt him sigh and go to the woods. "We might have to go to a gas station near the woods so I can get some food." He had to circle and fly for a while before finding a small town near the woods. I got out of the cockpit and walked towards the town.

I wasn't far when Starscream said, "Be safe little Ash." The fact that he would say those words made my heart jump and blush a little. I started walking to the little town again and found the gas station. I ran to the bathroom once inside. It earned me some weird looks but I honestly didn't care one bit. It felt wonderful to pee after hours of holding it in. I came out of the bathroom and grabbed a huge bag of Doritos and Twinkies and water. I ate outside knowing Starscream wouldn't like me eating inside of him. After eating the Twinkies and a few chips I started my walk back to the forest. When I got to Starscream he was sitting by a river. He looked over at me and smiled.

"What is your plan?" I asked standing across from him.

"After I take you back to base, I'll go to an abandoned Decepticon war ship. Megatron has forgotten about it." He looked sad at the thought.

"You could just stay at the base and once a week, we could go somewhere to stretch your legs," I really didn't want him to leave me alone again.

"I would love to stay with you at the base but I can't risk your safety. I'll visit you once a month. I give you my word" he put his hand on his chest. I couldn't help it a tear escaped. He brought a finger to my face, wiping the tear away. "Don't cry. Be strong for me."

"But what if Megatron finds you?"

"Let me worry about that."

"Where will we meet? We can't really meet in the hanger or the mall," I smiled at the thought.

"The start at of the swamp where we first talked. I'll send you the coordinates on your phone once you fix me up." He transformed and I climbed in.

Starscream

I didn't want to leave her. I tried to stay with her as long as I could. I took the long way back to the base. When getting there we quickly landed before they sent missiles on us. Ricky came running out to us, yelling to stop the search for Ash. Ash came running out to Ricky makes me sad. They moved me over the the hanger to get fixed later on after Ash took a shower and had a recharge. During the night Ash came to me with a blanket and a pillow.

"I can't sleep. Can I sleep with you?"

"Yeah sure." She quickly fell in recharge. After tomorrow I won't see her for at least a month. I don't know how I was going to do it.

The Nemesis

Megatron walked into Shockwave's lab. Soundwave had told Megatron about the break in of Airachnid and how she had stolen some important plans for killing the Autobots. It was rumored that Break Down had found her thanks to Starscream's human.

"Well, Shockwave any damage to our plans?"

"Sir Airachnid deleted our plans from the computer banks. She must have been here longer than we thought. The spider has out smarted us. I am sorry. If you wish I can send a team to kill her and get the file back." Megatron took a moment to think about it.

"No, alert the Autobots let them kill her. Keep it anonymous. Then go to plan B." Megatron walked out of the room madder at Airachnid then he was before.

Knock Out

I needed to talk to Shockwave about something on the datapad he had sent me. I was about to enter when I heard voice from the lab.

"...to kill her and get the file back." Shockwave said.

"No, alert the Autobots let them kill her. Keep it anonymous. Then go back to plan B." I heard foot steps coming and ran the other way. Turning a corner I looked to see Megatron leaving the room. Those two were up to something and they weren't telling anybody anything. But maybe Soundwave would know, he was the security officer. I went to Soundwave who was on his way back from a recharge.

"Soundwave I need to talk to you in private," I pushed him into a room. "What are Megatron and Shockwave up to? And don't lie to me."

"They had a plan to drop a type of bomb but Airachnid deleted that. I don't know what they could be up to now. They've hidden everything," Soundwave looked down, "why do you care what their planning? You're a medic and a soldier, just do what you are told."

"It matters because humans need to know what their up against. Wouldn't you want to know?" I forced him to the wall.

"Shockwave was talking about Predacons a few months ago but he didn't go through with it and it could take months or years for it go into effect. They have time, trust me." I needed to let Starscream know so he could track the progress without the prying eyes of Megatron or Shockwave on the Harvester. I forced Soundwave to open the space bridge.

Ash

I was taking my time fixing Starscream and he was letting me. I could feel Ricky watching me. He finally walked over to me.

"You sure you're okay? You've been quiet all day," Ricky said sounding concerned.

"I'm fine really. I promise." I looked up to see a red sports car coming into the hanger. Everyone gave the car strange looks. It came over to Starscream, me and Ricky and flashed the lights. I went to the car and whispered, "Knock Out?" The engine revved.

"I must speak to Starscream A.S.A.P.."

"I can't take him out. Everyone knows he needs repairs," I told him, people were staring at me talking to a car.

"Well fine I'll just talk to him," he was about to transform.

"Please don't. The government is a friend you don't want. Let me talk to Ricky. Give me 10 minutes," I ran over to Ricky. "Ricky I need to take the jet out to see if something is working on it. I'll have my cell phone on me." I gave him puppy dog eyes.

"Fine but I'm coming with you."

"Great-wait what? You can't. I need to do this alone."

"Either I go or nobody goes anywhere. Even that car." I didn't have a choice. Ricky got into Starscream with me and we went to an empty field.
