Chapter 8: rescues and explanations
Normal POV:
"Uggh" moaned Lightning as she began to wake up , "why do I feel like I've been used as a piñata" she asked as she slowly took in her surroundings, she was in a sort of make shift medbay, the room was fairly small but large enough for a bed and enough chairs for her siblings. Said siblings had made themselves comfy in the chairs and were fast asleep. Light slowly sat up and hissed as a jolt of pain rushed through her shoulder, looking down she then noticed how a majority of her body was covered in bandages 'I wonder how long I've been out of it for' she thought, she then lent over the bed to her closest sibling – Oliver and took a deep breath...
"WAKE UP!" She yelled into his ear,
"Woah, what the…Light?" Oliver asked as he was suddenly woken up "your awake?"
"No shit Sherlock" Light retorted, as she rubbed her shoulder "so what I missed" she asked
Oliver sighed "you worried us you know, bruised ribs, shot wounds and a stab wound then almost dying from the blood loss? And don't get me started on the whole all spark thing…its been almost a week, Ratchet said it might take a month before you woke up cos of that head wound you got" he said.
"Wait a month?" light asked curiously
"Yeah, the head wound you got was quite bad, that's why I'm confused as to why you woke up now, how you feeling?" Oliver asked, light laughed "your really asking how I'm feeling? Never mind, I'm good… However where's ratchet?" She asked
"Not sure" Oliver responded "haven't seen any of the bots since we got here..we haven't even left this room yet. The autobots wants us to be under their protection but the government is having none of it and having been arguing about it since we got here, we were told to stay here, the only times we have left is to get something to eat or use the bathroom" he explained
"WHAT!" Light exclaimed "why those no good, pit spawned fraggers. When I get a hold of them I'm gonna make them wish they were never born." Lightning said as she began to rant about the government, unfortunately her ranting woke up her two sisters as well
"Light!" Yelled Lily as she bounced off her chair and into Lightning, Angel also got up and made her way over to her sister "nice to see you awake" she said as she tried to pry Lily off of Light, who was currently being suffocated by her baby sisters hug.
"Thanks" light gasped as Angel finally got Lily to let go "where's echo?" light asked as she realised she has yet to see the sparkling
Oliver and Angel exchanged looks before Oliver rubbed the back of his neck nervously "um..about that" he started, Light began to worry
"Oliver, I will not ask again. Where. Is. Echo?" She asked again, she already had an idea about what may have happened
Oliver sighed "after we arrived here and Ratchet and Prime were looking after you, we showed Echo to the autobots. Unfortunately Simmons was there as well and after we told him how we found her he took Echo from us saying that because she is Earths technology she belongs to them, the bots couldn't do anything cos of that 'no hurting humans' rule, and then he stated we had to be taken here so that they could decide what to do with us" Oliver said, he watched his oldest sister quietly, he could already tell that his sister was fuming from the minute he mentioned that Simmons was involved
It was silent for a few minutes until Lightning made the first move to get up
"We need to get out of here" Light said,a look of determination flashed through her eyes, Angel grinned happily
"Already got it covered sis" angel began "this room as you can tell is storage, with lots of old knick knacks lying around, and I was able to create lots of little spy cams, whenever me and Oliver needed the bathroom we took a few with us and deposited them around the base. Thanks to that I was able to hear what was going on plus I had your laptop so I was able to download the schematics" Angel finished, she watched as Lightning began to grin deviously
"So where are we" light asked. Angel opened up the laptop pointed to part of a map,
"Here, we are in the far back left wing of the base. The bots are in the centre hangers where the all spark and Megatron were, Echo however from what I heard is in the right wing of the base, that's where all the experimenting with the all sparks energy was" Angel explained, looking to make sure Light understood before continuing "and that's not all, I listened in to some of the soldiers conversation, that Banachek guy is worse than Simmons, he wants us lot out of the way. By making sure that Ratchet couldn't keep an eye on you because of the condition you were in, when it's the final meeting he plans to claim that you 'died' and that is was the autobots fault, thus causing problems for the treaty to go ahead, and with us locked in here with you we can't tell them what's really going on" Angel finished
Light stood up straight, stretched her arms up above her head " when's the meeting" she asked
"Half an hour, and we can't get out of here, there are four guards on the other side of the door" Angel responded.
"Ok so operation save Echo then kick Simmons and Banachek's ass into next week is a go" light said as she made her way to the door
"Um…light" Oliver said, Light turned around "what?" She asked, Oliver shoved a bag into her arms,
"You might want to put some decent clothes on first" he explained, light looked down and blushed, for her jeans had been cut off and we're now the length of short shorts. And her top as well so it looked like she only had shorts and a bra on. Reaching in the bag she brought out the spare jeans and top she had and quickly got changed into them
"Ok, now we can go" light said, she pointed to the other end of the room, furthest away from the door " okay you three, go there and stay out of the way for a sec, on my mark, Angel scream as loud as you can to get their attention" light explained as she pressed her self against the wall next to the door, the three kids nodded and when everyone was in position, Angel screamed, within seconds the four guards had entered
"What's wrong" one of them asked, the children smirked as they watched Lightning approach the one furthest on the right, she then lightly tapped on his shoulder causing him to turn round
"This" she said as she pulled her right fist and punched the guy in the nose, causing him to fall to the floor clutching his nose in pain. She then crouched and swung her leg around as she tripped the next guy over, she grabbed the first soldiers gun and as she stood up, rammed the back of the gun in the third mans stomach, effectively winding him before hitting round the head with said gun and knocking him out and just as the fourth solider approached her she quickly raised her leg to kick him in the balls and watched as he also fell to the floor in pain.
"I'll be taking that" said Oliver as he took a couple of their guns off of them and strapped them to himself, Oliver whistled lowly "damn sis, for someone who's supposed to be injured that was impressive" he said as looked down at the now unconscious soldiers
"Let's go, Angel show us the way to Echo" Light said as looked over to her younger sis
"This way" Angel said as she began to lead the way.
It's been about five almost ten minutes till the siblings had gotten to the west wing, and had hidden themselves into a storage room
"Now what" asked Oliver as he swung one of the guns round to land in his hands ready, light glared at him before turning back to Angel
"From what I can tell on the schematics up ahead is the 'dome room' a giant circular room before splitting off into separate other rooms. Echo is in the centre of that room, locked inside a cube box – like the one they used for that Nokia phone – there are several guards watching but what I heard is that all the soldiers face outwards, to watch for anyone who might enter" Angel explained as she rubbed her chin in thought. Lightning was quiet but then looked up and smiled
"What about coming in from above?" light asked as she pointed to the ceiling, the other three looked up and started to smile as well for Lightning had noticed giant steel pipes making their way across the ceiling, several different pipes all interlocked with each other and covered much of the ceiling and were above the main hanging lights so it was also difficult to see what was actually up there
"Cool, but how do we get up there?" Oliver asked,
"Not we, but me" light smirked at her brother before vanishing, the others looked up again and saw that Light had teleported herself on top of the pipes, they were wide enough for her to walk along
"No fair" mumbled Oliver.
Meanwhile Lightning had managed to enter the dome room and immediately spotted Echo and surrounding her was around twenty guards who, all like Angel said, were facing away from Echo, light smirked 'too easy' she thought, she continued walking along the pipe until she was directly above the sparkling and teleported so she landed right next to Echo, before Echo react she placed a finger to her lips
"Shhhh" Light whispered, Echo's optics widened when she recognised Lightning and nodded in understanding. Light let out a small breathe of air before closing her eyes and focusing, she placed her finger at the lock and imagined the Electricity within her to form a key, when she opened her eyes she sighed in relief to see a small key at the end of her finger, she quickly unlocked the cage and scooped up Echo before quickly teleporting to the pipes again, her arms tightened around the scared sparkling
"Don't worry sweetspark, I got you now" Lightning whispered as she comforted the sparkling
"Hurt" Echo whimpered, Light let go of Echo slightly and looked at her curiously
"Where does it hurt?" Light asked, she watched as Echo pointed at her back. Examining a bit closer she noticed that Echo had small door wings on her back and looking closer she could see what Echo was upset for, one of her doorwings had been pulled a little too roughly and a few wires connecting it to her back had been ripped. Light mentally cursed, she remembered how sensitive doorwings were for any cybertronian and being a sparkling meant her frame was even more fragile. 'I'm gonna kill them' Light thought
She re-picked up Echo, carefully so that she avoided the doorwings and then made her way back to her younger siblings. Lucky for Lightning the kids had the common sense to stay put, Lily and Angel were sitting there bored while Oliver stood guard.
"What happened?" angel asked as she saw Light teleport back to the ground, Lily and Oliver both turned around when they heard their sister talk and saw Lightning who was protectively holding Echo
"I'm gonna kill those fuckers" light said "one of them ripped Echo's doorwings" she explained, said sparkling buried herself into Lightnings chest and whimpered, Angel slowly approached and had a quick look before sighing
"I would help but I don't know enough about cybertronian bodies to repair it, we need to get her to Ratchet." Angel said as she quickly checked the time, " we got about ten minutes before the meeting" Angel said
"Let's get going then, there's a few people I wanna have a chat with" said Light as a dark aura surrounded her. The other three children slowly backed away from their sister
"I feel sorry for whoever she's gonna kill" Oliver whispered to his younger sisters, who just mutely nodded in agreement.
-with the bots—
"For the final time, the children are staying with us" Simmons said as he dragged his hand down his face in exhaustion, this argument has been going on for almost a week now and the autobots are still standing their ground. They were all in the main halls as it was the only place to fit all the bots, up on the platforms you also had Mikaela, Sam, Lennox, Epps, Maggie, Glen and Keller, all were observing the current 'debate' that was taking place.
"For Primus sake, those children are not safe with you humans, and why has no one yet to inform me of Lightnings conditions" Ratchet asked. Said bot was extremely nervous, he has no idea if the girl has survived or not and he had a ton of questions to ask like how on cybertron was she able to control the all spark.
"My comrade is right" Optimus said as he took over talking for Ratchet, he could see his CMO getting stressed out. "Your government has been breached and innocents have been hurt, these children are not normal and the eldest knows too much about us, if she was to fall in to decepticons servos, then we have no hope" Optimus explained, trying to remain calm as well, he himself was also at wits ends with the humans for they seemed too stubborn to give up the humans. Just then Jazz piped in.
"And don't forget the sparkling you took" Jazz reminded. Optimus internally sighed, there was also that problem too. Unfortunately Simmons spoke up, yet again. "That thing is ours, it was made by earths technology" Simmons repeated once again, Optimus was seriously considering removing the rule of no harming humans and making this one exception.
"Oh for the love of…yes the sparkling may be made out of earths technology but she was brought to life by our all spark, making her one of us" Ratchet explained.
"But your saw how all those other things reacted when they came alive, they started to attack innocents, that sparkling is a threat" Simmons argued.
"If that sparkling was a threat then it could have attacked those children at any time but it didn't, now be quiet before I blast you to bits" threatened Ironhide as he pulled his cannons out and aimed them at Simmons, Prime tried to stop Ironhide and convince him to put the cannons away while Jazz and Bee supported Hide, they themselves were getting frustrated by Simmons as well and wanted nothing more than for him to be gone. Meanwhile Simmons just stood there smugly
"Know your place your bucket of bolts, autobots aren't allowed to harm humans" Simmons said as he crossed his arms and stared at the autobots.
"No, but I can" A massive 'whump' echoed throughout the hall as a fist collided with Simmons jaw sending him to the floor and yelling out in pain. All activity within the room seized and looked towards the centre platform where Simmons was. Simmons got up slowly while massaging his jaw and turned to glare at whoever had the nerve to punch him
"Who do you think you…" He started but stopped mid flow when he came face to face with a furious Lightning, who was still clutching the sparkling in her left arm as she used her right to punch him. The hall was in complete silence until jazz was the first one to speak up
"Yo, da little lady is up then" he asked curiously, at hearing Jazz's voice Lightning turned around so she was facing the autobots and at seeing Jazz she smiled, her anger completely disappeared
"Jazz, nice to see you up and about. Was a little worried when Megsy ripped you in half" she said as she walked away from Simmons and down the steps to the bots and stopped in front of Jazz.
"Megsy? Ha I like ya kid, ya got spunk" jazz said as he laughed and patted one of his claws on top of Lights head. She chuckled softly before re-arranging the sparkling in her arms, and sighed
"Don't touch anything" she said out loudly as she turned to her left, towards the humans who stared down at her in confusion.
"No fair Light" said Oliver as he appeared from behind the humans and came and stood next to them, Angel and Lily stood behind him, "where did you come from" Epps asked curiously, "well, when a man and woman like each other very much th…" Oliver began but was interrupted by Banachek.
"Can we please get back to topic here" Banachek said, stepping in for Simmons who was currently getting his jaw checked. Light sighed before asking Jazz to take Echo for her for a sec before she turned around and glared at Banachek, all that murderous intent she had before came back.
"Oh yes" she started "let's get back to topic shall we, let's start with how you locked my younger siblings up, or how one of your men ripped out Echo's doorwing or let's talk how you planned to sabotage this meeting by claiming I was dead and pinning the blame onto the bots in order for the treaty to not go ahead" Light said, and as she talked she walked closer and closer to Banachek until she was right up in his face. She smirked when she saw a flash of fear appear in his eyes before she leant back and walked away. This time Keller intervened
"Is this true?" He demanded, Banacheck froze a sec before talking "negative, this girl is delusional she should be in the infirmary right now" Banachek argued.
Light laughed "don't bother, we have footage of your men discussing orders of to dispose of us once the treaty was revoked by the government" she said and then threw a memory stick to Keller, "this has all the info you need" she simple said before continuing loud enough for everyone to hear
"Secondly, we can't go under American government protection because we're British, so that's a no and thirdly we're not from your planet but from another planet Earth so ineffectively we class as aliens" she finished as she stared smugly at Simmons and Banachek. Sam and the other humans laughed at this
"What, your like from some parallel planet or something" Glen asked as he laughed
"Yes" Light said and all laughing stopped. " the only reason we sent the email and got in contact with the bots is cos their the only ones who can help us get home" she explained.
"She's correct, she already explained how she knows all about the autobots and how her and her siblings got here" Ratchet said as he defended the human.
"Prove it then" said Epps, who was slightly curious now, Light stared at Epps before looking over to Angel and nodded her head, angel then ran near Simmons, reached into her bag and pulled out the laptop and plugged it in to the main computer and the big screen. She then turned and gave a thumbs up to Light
"Ok people, me and my siblings are from another planet Earth where the current date is 2014, and the autobots are a franchise created back in 1987" Light explained as she walked closer to the laptop, several men in the room snorted at what Light was saying, finding it too ridiculous to believe. Light smirked then pressed a button on the laptop.
"Ok Google, list of transformers universe" she said,
"Here is list of transformers, transformers started off as a show created by Hasbro in 1987, commonly known as transformers G1, there is also Transformers: the movie, generation 2, beast wars I and II, beast wars neo, robots in disguise, Armada, cyberton, animated, prime, rescue bots. There is also video games, books and soundtracks for transformers." A voice came out of the laptop,
"What the.." epps asked
"Our tech is a little more advanced then you guys" explained Oliver Who the nodded to Light
"Ok Google, show images for all transformers universes and the autobots" light said then clicked a few buttons so that the laptop screen appeared on the big screen and within seconds the screen filled up with lots of images ranging from transformers G1 to transformers prime and to the live action movies. "Ok, let's narrow this down a bit" Lightning mumbled to herself as she typed in the advanced search settings 'transformers 2007-2014 live action movie images' and clicked the search bar, the big screen flashed white before several new images came up. Mostly all consisting of Jazz, Ironhide, Bee, Ratchet and Prime and the occasional decepticons.
"These" lightning began "are images from the last few days, you guys to me and my siblings are a franchise, this being the first out of four live action movies, I know everything that is going to happen within the next 8-9 years that involve the autobots" Light explained.
"So wait, that clip that you guys emailed us earlier..?" Ratchet began to ask, Light laughed as the memory played through her mind
"That's my favourite part, other than you running into that power line at Sam's house" Light replied, Hide and the other autobots chuckled slightly at that while Sam just groaned at the memory as he remembered how much damaged they caused at his home, Will and Epps just stared confusedly
"What happened?" Will asked
"Man I woulda love to have seen that" Epps said, Oliver laughed at that and turned to his sister
"Oi light, didn't you say you had the first three films on your comp?" Oliver asked Lightning, who in turn grinned deviously, before pressing a few buttons on her laptop
"Naturally, Oi ratchet recognise this?" lightning then asked Ratchet as she began to play the clip. Ratchets Optics widened is disbelief as he saw himself on the screen when he ran into those power lines, Epps and Lennox began to laugh.
"Oh god that was brilliant" Epps said as he leant against Lennox while laughing, Lennox wiped a tear from his face from laughing so much before standing up straight and regaining his composure
"Please tell me you have other videos like that" he asked, Light smirked and tapped her nose
"Spoilers" she simply said before unplugging the laptop and handing it back over to Angel.
"So can we please agree that me and my siblings will be much safer with the autobots than your bloody government" Light asked as she faced Banachek and Simmons, but before they could answer Keller had spoken instead
"I believe that miss Lightning is right, from what she has shown us they would be better off with the autobots" he said, then held a hand up in front of the two agents in a bid to silence them "I don't want to hear any more of your excuses, they stay with the autobots and that's that" he finished. The two agents glared at Lightning before Simmons spoke up
"What about that thing, it still belongs to us?" He asked as he pointed to the sparkling in Jazz's servos, Oliver sighed, "now he's done it" he sighed, Prime turned to the child
"Done what exactly" he asked curiously to Oliver, which also gained the attention of the humans standing next to Oliver and the other autobots.
"light is really protective of our family, especially if we've been threatened or hurt in any way. You guys saw how she was earlier with that Lucas guy. Even though we haven't had Echo for long, Light already sees Echo as a daughter to her and hearing Simmons call her a 'thing' is like asking to face a whole decepticon army by yourself" Oliver explained. The others muttered a small ohh before turning back to the scene in front of them.
Light froze when she heard Simmons talk about Echo like that before growling and then walked over to Simmons and grabbed the front of his jacket and pulled him towards her,
"Ok there are several points I need to get into your thick head. One, she is a sparkling and her name is Echo. Two, she is an autobot not some bloody possession and finally, you insult my little girl again and I'm gonna pound you into the middle of next week. Do. I. Make. Myself. Clear?" She growled out as she let go of Simmons jacket and walked away, not letting Simmons have the chance of answering her. However at this point Keller had held a hand out in front of Simmons before shaking his head and walked away. Simmons sighed in defeat and followed Keller out of the main hall.
Light walked over to Jazz, who crouched down and handed the sparkling back to her, as soon as Echo was close enough she latched onto Light and chirped happily. Light smiled as she nudged her Sparklings head before frowning, as she saw that Echo's doorwing was still damaged. She then turned and walked over to Ractchet.
"Hey Ratch could ya take a look at Echo's doorwing for me please, one of the soldiers handled her too roughly and pulled it out a bit" she asked as she indicated to said injury, Ratchet bent down to have a closer look
"Nothing too serious, but I would like to to do a couple of scans to make sure there's nothing else wrong" he said, before holding his servo out "climb on, I also want to have a chat with you about earlier" Ratchet explained, Light sighed before climbing into his servo, she knew they were gonna ask about the all spark sooner or later. Ratchet stood back up and began to walk to the makeshift medbay that had been created for the bots. The other autobots also followed with Angel and Lily in Jazz's servos and Oliver with Ironhide, meanwhile Sam, Mikaela, Will and Epps followed on foot.
The medbay was basically a giant empty room with a couple of Berths against the walls. There was also a platform that was used by the humans so that they didn't have to constantly break their necks to look up. Ratchet walked over to the berth closest to the platform and lowered his servo for Lightning, who after getting off of his servo, swayed a little before slowly sitting down
"You alright sis?" Oliver asked worriedly, Light shook her head and began to rub her temple
"Don't worry, just a little dizzy" light replied with, Ratchet then carefully picked up Echo and began to fix the wires before looking over to Lightning
"Have you experienced any other symptoms and how long has the dizziness being going on for" he asked Lightning
"Since I woke up, and a bit of a headache" Light replied with, Ratchet nodded as he listened before turning to Jazz,
"Over in that cupboard is some human painkillers, it should be a small red bottle, give it to lightning for me" he told Jazz, who did what he was told and gave the bottle to Light who then shook out a couple of tablets and swallowed them dry, Lily shook her head at that and made a face
"How can you do that?" She asked, light laughed at her sister "years of practice" she replied with.
"So" Lennox began as he stared at the four children "you four are really from another dimension where the autobots are a franchise and after stupidly going through a portal ended up here, now want our help to get you home?" He asked, the siblings all looked at each other
"Yep" Angel and Oliver said simultaneously, as they looked back at Lennox. Just then Optimus spoke up
"Do you have any idea as to why and how the portal showed up" he asked. Angel looked down while Oliver shook his head
"None, it's all really confusing but we're kinda used to confusing things happening now" Oliver explained, Light groaned and placed her face in her hands before mumbling something that no one could understand, everyone looked confusedly at her before the middle two children laughed.
"Weird stuff has always happened to us and it always involves Lightning some way or another, that's why we're not freaking about Light and her control over the all spark" Angel explained,
"Yes, I've been meaning to ask about that?" ratchet said as he handed Echo back to lightning after fixing her doorwing "good as new, now tell me how you were able to do all that stuff" he then asked her
"Wait what stuff?" Sam asked confusedly, as he wasn't there at the time he had no idea what was going on. Light grinned before she held up her left arm and pointed it to the left, the wall opposite the platform and fired a ball of electricity into the wall leaving a small dent in the poor wall.
They watched in awe as Lights arm had lit up with gold tendrils and watched as she fired the ball of energy into the wall, "that sort of stuff" Light said as she brought her arm back down and gripped the all spark that was still hanging around her neck "I don't know how to explain it, as soon as Echo placed the shard in my palm its like a part of me I never knew woke up, all this information appeared in my mind and it was like someone was telling me what to do" she explained.
"Fascinating" Ratchet said afterwards "from the things I've seen you do so far and from the gold tendrils that appeared I would say that the all spark almost recognises you as a spark keeper" he said, the humans stared at him confusedly, while the bots stared in shock
"You got to be kidding me, that's impossible the last keeper was Solus and she died vorns ago, and she is a fleshy how is that even possible" Ironhide began to rant rather loudly
"Ironhide calm down, Ratchet has a point the moves Lightning showed were almost replicas of Solus' moves, don't deny that when you saw Lightning fight that it was the same style you taught Solus when we were younger, Ratchet could there be any possible link between Lightning and Solus" Optimus asked Ratchet
"There could be but I need to do some tests first and…" ratchet began before he was interrupted by the purple haired woman
"Hold your horses!" light shouted "you ain't doing any tests on me yet, first" she said as she pointed to ratchet "what on Earth is a Spark Keeper and who is this Solus you guys keep yammering on about. I know I said I know a lot about you guys but not everything so start talking." She then turned to Optimus
"What is a spark keeper" she asked.
Yay I'm done
Another cliffhanger, I'm sorry please don't hate the next chapter will be up soon.
