Chapter Four

The following Thursday still couldn't go to school and I was informed what we were up to in dance and the songs we were singing. I ended up being incredibly bored but then I got a text around 11:00am. It was from Optimus, it read Optimus: How are you Twilight? Twilight: I'm bored. How do you have my number? Optimus: Rafael gave your number to bumblebee and bumblebee gave it to me. Twilight: Oh. What are you doing at this moment? Optimus: Wondering if you could come on a ride with me. Twilight: Let me ask really quickly. I went to ask my aunt and she said yes but wondered who I was texting and I said "It's my friend Carl." "Be back by five-thirty pm." "Okay."

Then I went out to see Optimus and then I got in and buckled up and I turned to the drivers side only to see a man sitting there. "I am using a holoform that ratchet made and I am testing it out." Optimus said. "Oh. Cool. So why did you want me to come with you?" I asked. "I just wanted to get to know you better." Optimus said. "Oh, well what do you want to know?" "Anything that you want to share." he replied.

I thought for a moment about what I was going to share first."Love to draw and paint, I adore animals, I also love music, I like sweets, and I like bow and neck ties." I said. "Could you be more specific?" Optimus asked. "Well I love all animals, but mostly cats. My cat I owned I left with my sister Alexis. My cat's name is cubby, because she looks cubby." I noticed Optimus nodding as I spoke. "The kind of music I like is a little rap, pop, rock, a little heavy metal, and country."

" I could go on with a lot of famous painters and such but I'm not going to, I usually paint something I care about or how I'm feeling. The sweets I like are mostly cupcakes, cakes, brownies, and chocolate. The bow ties and neck ties I either find very pretty or funny, mostly there pretty. I also love fashion. You could say I have a good sense of style and how to match things. I also like any shade of blue and my middle name is Dallas and you can call me by it if you want to." I said. "Interesting." is all Optimus said.

Of course we drifted in to an awkward silence only three seconds after Optimus spoke. I was wondering if I should tell him about my childhood. Then all of a sudden Ratchet said "Optimus there are four cybertronian life signals very near you and Twilight. Five Autobots and five Decepticons. Bumblebee will meet you there." "On my Ratchet." Optimus replied. When we got there Optimus told me to be quiet and careful. I told him I would try. So we went around the trees and I realized we drove on a old path into the we heard fighting and shouting. So Optimus went forward a few paces and saw in to a clearing that the bots there were fighting and Optimus then shot at one of the two seekers. Wait how do I know what a seeker is? I thought.

Optimus went and joined the battle after shooting him near his wing. He is violet and black. I watched carefully from the tree I was in and took a few pictures to show Miko later. It was pretty cool until I realized that there were mini-cons and mini-bots. Once again I question how I know things like this, and once again I made horrible decision. When I focused back I saw pretty much a panther coming right at me and I did dodge but I knew Ravage would try again.

This time thankfully I decided to ignore how I knew that. I of course knew I had to run, so I did. I also knew I would not be able to outrun Ravage. That is when I heard someone ahead saying that they had to find where ravage went so I turned that way quickly but then, sadly something hit me where my bruise was and I screamed. Very, very loudly. I heard Optimus call out "Dallas!" I also noticed who ever was talking they came out and saw me but about three of them went after ravage. So only one of them was there with me.

"My name is rewind." rewind said. "Cool. Can you look at my back?" He did it was pretty bad but not any worse then this morning. Then a teal seeker comes up to us and shoots rewind and picks me up. I remember my phone is in my shirt (don't ask) and I take it out look at him and take a picture of him. He didn't seem to care. He came out into the battle field and I saw the time on my phone 3:00 pm. I was hoping that I won't get kidnapped by Thundercracker. I didn't, because a lovely, excuse the terrible pun, blue blur came by and took me then I passed out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Memory~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Twilight go get me some water. Now." Alison ordered me." Your legs are not broken and you didn't ask nicely plus you're a big girl." I say back. I have always hated my step-sister and bother "Twilight go get your sister some water please." "Fine." I say back to my step-dad.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~end of memory~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I came to I was laying down on a gurney and I was looking at Ratchet glaring at Rewind. " What time is it?" I ask as I realize I was crying. " 6:00 pm but don't worry you are having a what is it called again oh yeah a sleepover here and your stuff is already packed." Ratchet replied. "oh." is my response. " Hi." Rewind says cheerfully. " Hi, you seem pretty happy." I say to him as I sit up. "Hey eject, what are you doing?" Rewind asks a blue and silver with yellow on his chest mini-cassette whom I can guess is Eject. "let the fun begin?" I ask ratchet while he glared at me.

It was going pretty well until you know Prowl, Blurr, and Optimus came in as well as Arcee, Jack, Miko, Raf, Bumblebee, and Bulkhead. "Ratchet can explain!" I shout as me, eject, and rewind disappear into the fort we made. So after about an hour of explaining and cleaning up we all went to sleep. The next day I went home and went about what ever I had to do.
