Chapter 42
I had most of the Auto bots gathered in a secret bunker I had had built. Optimus had gone to find the other Auto bots that had scattered. Most of them were out looking for parts to rebuild the ship, we had to build one from scratch. I was in the makeshift med bay. Ratchet was running scans on me; my bones were becoming a protoform and it was painful. According to him I would be able to make myself look like a human even after I was turned into a Cybertronian. I guess that meant I would be a pretender like Alice. I would also be able to take on my wolf form, which I had no clue why I had that.
"Ratchet, there are things I need to do," I complained. I had to go to the old bases and gather everything I could which is why I always took one to two Auto bots with me. I didn't have a large enough sub space. I had to gather everything that belonged to the Auto bots. Wheel Jack was taking things apart for parts for the ship and using Decepticon body parts to build the ship walls.
"And I am your doctor. I need to make sure you are still healthy with everything that is going on. Are you in pain?" Ratchet asked.
"Nothing worth mentioning," I replied. I wouldn't say I was in pain; it was more of a dull ache.
"Allison," he warned.
"It's just a dull ache Ratchet, I barely even notice it," I said rolling my eyes. Ratchet kept me for another hour, running scans and poking me. As soon as he let me go I grabbed Sunny and Sides and left for Nevada to gather wreckage from Mission City. There was still wreckage around the city, if you knew where to look.
"How have you been doing?" Sunny asked as I sat in his passenger seat.
"Fine Sunny," I said yawning. "I'm just going to take a nap in the back seat," I said unbuckling my seat beat and sliding into the back.
"Are you sure you're all right sweet spark?" Sunny asked.
"Fine Sunny, just this transformation process takes a lot out of me." Sunny switched on my favorite radio station as I settled down and drifted off. When we arrived at Mission City Sunny's and Sides' holoform got out of their alt modes and I got out of Sunny's back seat. People ignored us as we walked through the city looking through things. Thankfully people ignored us. We managed to find several little parts but not enough for Wheel Jack to finish the engine. We had raided every old base around the world and collected pieces off the ocean floor from when their ship exploded.
We still didn't have enough. I didn't know what we were going to do, we had 11 months left till we had to leave and I had ten months left till I was no longer human, but to be honest I no longer wanted to be called human with how they treated the Auto bots.
