Sector Seven
Aurora tensed seeing the men in black suits walk around the house before Ron walked over and answered the door as the doorbell started to go off. "Ronald Wickity?" The man in the suit asked once the door was open "It's Witwicky. Who are you?" Ron asked slightly angry "We're the government. Sector Seven" This caused Aurora to tense and walk towards the door. "Never heard of it" She stated glaring at the man "And you never will young lady" He said before turning his attention back to Ron "Your son's the great-grandson of Captain Archibald Wickity, is he not?" The man asked putting his badge away. "It's Witwicky" Aurora corrected with a glare causing Sam to grab her arm and pull her back slightly. "May I enter the premises, Sir?" The douchebag asked getting in Ron's face. "Ron, there guys all over the front yard" Judy said looking out the windows. "Your son filed a stolen car report last night. We think it's involved in a national security matter." The agent said looking around the room. "What national security matters have to do with a car?" Aurora asked slowly getting pissed off. "I suggest you shut it young lady" The agent snapped before looking in her direction. "Something fishy is going on around here" Ron said going to stand next to his kids and wife. "Yeah, there's something a little fishy about you, your son, your loud mouth daughter, your little Taco Bell dog and this whole operation" Agent douchebag said "Also did you know your daughter techanilly has broken a law by having a gun before the age of twenty-one?" He asked pointing towards Aurora. "Now son? Step forward please" "Just stand?" Sam asked before the Agent put a device near him. The device slowly started to beep "Fourteen rads-" He paused before slowly moving it towards Aurora "Hey get that shit away from me" She spat out before hearing the device go crazy before breaking. "And off the charts for the girl, Tag them and bag them" He said before Agents came up to grab Sam, Aurora and Mikaela.
After Aurora struggled for a moment the three of them were put into handcuffs and thrown into the back of a car. She clenched her teeth feeling the metal of the handcuffs dig into the skin on her wrists. "So…. LadiesMan217. That is your eBay username, right?" Douchebag asked before grabbing Sam's phone out of a bag. Aurora held back a chuckle "Yeah, but you know. It was a typo and I ran with it" Sam came back causing Aurora to look at him. "What do you have to misspell to come up with that?" She asked glaring at him, Aurora zoned out for the rest of the conversation trying to focus on something so she could zone out the pain coming from her shoulder and wrists. She lowered her head feeling a sharp pain explode in the front of her head causing her to close her eyes shut. 'Oh my god my head is going to explode' She thought before laying her head on the window. Lifting her head up quickly hearing everyone start to laugh "So, What do you kids know about aliens huh?" Agent asked cutting off the laughter. "Like a Martian? Like what, E.T.?" "It's an urban legend" Mikaela cut in "Do you believe in aliens douchebag?" Aurora asked glaring at him. "You see this? This is an I-can-do whatever-I-want and get away with it badge. I'm gonna lock you up forever" Aurora scoffed at this "Don't listen to him. He's just pissy because he has to get back to guarding the mall." Mikaela said making Aurora smirk "Or driving his grandma to BINGO" Aurora cut in. "You two in the training bras do not test me. Especially you with your daddy's parole coming up" He said looking towards Mikaela "And you with the unregistered gun" He finished looking back to Aurora "Grand theft auto, That ain't nothing?" Aurora looked to Sam and Mikaela as they spoke but all she could feel was the Agent's eyes burning a hole in the back of her head. "They are both criminals. Criminals are hot." Agent pervert said causing Aurora to gag. He started to say something else but all Aurora could hear was excessive beeping from a machine before the car made impact with something large causing Aurora to lunge forward. "Holy mother of hell" She growled out feeling a sharp pain in her wrists before a warm liquid ran down her hands. "BIG IT'S BIG" One of the agents yelled before the car was lifted off the ground "Shift your weight towards the front!" Sam called out causing everyone in the car to do so. Aurora couldn't focus on anything else other than the amount of pain she was in, Everything was starting to burn from her head to her shoulder down to her wrists.
As the car made an impact with the ground Aurora winced as pain shot up her arm. "You A-holes are in trouble now, Gentlemen I want to introduce you to my friend" Sam said leaning forward "Optimus Prime". "Taking the boy and Aurora was a bad move" Optimus stated before S-7 Agents surrounded the car with their guns. "Autobots, Relive them of their weapons." The Prime said before the ground shook as the other Autobots arrived. "Give me those!" Jazz said putting out his hand that had a magnet on it causing the gun to fly into it. Aurora slowly got out of the car before leaning up against it as Sam and Mikaela spoke. Ratchet looked down at her before shoving Ironhides arm, The two bots crouched down "Are you alright sparklet?" Ironhide asked causing her to look up. "I don't know" Aurora said with a large sigh "I think these cuffs cut my wrists" She said tiredly before, She could hear noises coming from the two but couldn't understand them. Aurora felt the cuffs loosen as an S-7 agent took them off, She glared at him before walking towards Ironhide. Feeling a tingle as Ratchet scanned her she slowly walked into Ironhide's servo as he held it out to her. "Frag" Ratchet cursed under his breath before Ironhide looked over to him. "One of the veins got nicked" He muttered trying not to sound worried but Ironhide could feel it over their bond. *Will she be okay Ratchet?* Ironhide coms Ratchet before hearing him let out a breath *I don't know a lot about humans, I do know that if it's a vein the chances of death are high because of blood loss*. Ironhide cursed before looking down at Aurora seeing her look a little tired *Can you do anything?* *I can try and stitch it up using my Holoform* Ratchet offered causing Ironhide to nod. Aurora flinched hearing Ratchet transform before seeing a middle-aged man come out of the Hummer. "Ratchets gonna take care of those cuts for you okay?" Ironhide said crouching down before lowering his hand so Ratched could help Aurora down. She winced feeling Ratchet picked her up and carried her bridal style before sitting her on the cot. "Can Ironhide be here?" She asked quietly before laying back on the pillow Ratchet looked at her before smiling softly with a nod. Moments later a man around the age of forty entered the Hummer, He had pitch-black hair with bright blue eyes, and a noticeable scar on his eyebrow. "Hey Sparklet" He said walking closer before sitting beside her "What does that mean?" She asked tilting her head as Ratchet started to get some equipment. "It's a term of endearment for Cybertronians" He said before looking at her wrists before noticing how pale she had gotten "Ratch you better hurry up" Ironhide said with a slight panic edge to his voice. "Hey Hide?" Aurora asked rolling her head to the side "Yeah Sparklet?" He asked suddenly grabbing her right wrist and putting pressure on the vein "I feel tired" She said before feeling Ratchet numb her arms from the elbow down. "Well, you can't sleep now. How about a story?" He asked trying to distract her "Hmmm" She murmured causing him to sigh "How about Cybertron? Or my cannons?" He asked causing her to chuckle. "What type of cannons do you have? Do they even have names?" She asked curiously causing him to smile "They are called Pulse Cannons" He said feeling a tug on his spark as she winced once Ratchet started to stitch up her left wrist. "We've been meaning to ask you Sparklet, Why aren't you biologically Sam's sister? But he still calls you that?" Ironhide asked watching her slowly relax again "I was adopted when I was young. My parents never showed up on any blood testing so they put it down as 'UNKNOWN'" She said with a sigh "I never knew my real parents.. Or what do you call your parents?" She asked Ironhide "Creators. We call them creators, Our Fathers are known as Sires and our Mothers are known as Carriers" He explained before sitting on the edge of the cot. *I found something interesting Hide* Ratchet said as he continued to work *She has traces of Energon in her blood and I picked up an Energon signal a couple of minutes ago when she started to bleed* Ratchet explained before lifting his head hearing her wince. "We need you awake for this Little one. Can't have you going to sleep and not waking up" He said causing her to slowly nod. *Does that mean she is Cybertronian?* Ironhide asked causing him to nod again *That could be it and that could also explain the bond we feel* Ratchet said before pausing as Aurora's eyes started to flutter shut. "Hey Sparklet why don't you tell us more about you?" She heard Ironhide ask but she was just soo tired "Can I tell you later" She mumbled "I'm too tired" He shook his head before squeezing in to sit next to her on the cot. "Why don't you ask a question about me then I'll ask one about you?" Ironhide suggested getting worried with how slowly she was becoming *Ironhide her spark pulse is slowing down* Ratchet worriedly said to Ironhide *Then make it stop going down* He snapped feeling dread in his spark before feeling her rest her head on his chest. "Hey kid you gotta lift your head up, okay?" No response "Sparklet?" No response "Ratchet?" Ironhide looked down to her to see her eyes shut. "I'm working on it Ironhide. She needs a transfusion or else she won't make it" Ratchet stitched up the last of her left wrist before starting on her right one. "Use my Energon" Ironhide said pointing to his arm before Ratchet shook his head "She still has human 'blood'" "Then get Sams aft in here!" Ironhide growled out holding her head closer to his chest. *Ratchet to Optimus Prime* *Optimus Prime here go ahead old friend* Ironhide looked down at Aurora's pale face before taking a deep breath. Everyone knew him as the tough weapons specialist who doesn't show emotion but to those he's close with he is pretty much just a big softie. *We need the boy in here* Optimus paused before shifting his full attention to the conversation *Why is that?* *It's Aurora she needs a blood transfusion. The metal restraints she had on cut into her wrists deeply.* *Understood old friend I'll send him over -Prime out-* . Aurora groaned softly causing Ironhide to put a hand on top of her head and play with a small piece of her hair. Moment's later Sam came into the Hummer with a worried look on his face "Will she be okay?" He asked rolling up a sleeve as Ratchet grabbed an IV bag "She should be but I'll need blood from you and Energon from Ironhide." He stated before grabbing Sam's arm.
After almost an hour of waiting for results, Aurora's pulse slowly started to return to normal causing Ironhide to calm down. Sam and Mikaela had left with the rest of the Autobots while Ratchet and Ironhide drove off to a secluded area to help Aurora. *Ratchet? What if we adopt her?" Ironhide asked over coms causing Ratchet to pause *Ironhide, She has a human family* *But she isn't fully human. She's gonna wanna know more about Cybertron and humans can't tell her stuff like that* He stated before running a hand in her hair. "And look, She already has your hair" Ironhide said out loud with a smirk looking over to Ratchet as he sat in an empty chair "It isn't our decision to make, It's hers" He stated before going over some scans he had taken of her. "I also found an unknown reading on her back, Think you could show me her shoulder" Ratchet asked standing up and walking towards them. "Hmm. She has the Autobot marking on her shoulder and it's not a 'tattoo'. It has small circuitry built into it." "Haha, SO she is Cybertronian!" Ironhide said with a proud smirk "Would seem so but the reading from the mark registers with one in the system. It's for a femme called Nightrunner" Ratchet said rubbing his face "It says she worked at Iacon with Alpha Trion before becoming a Pit fighter" He said slightly confused. "Does this mean she is Nightrunner?" Ironhide asked causing Ratchet to sigh "I'm not sure at the moment I'll need more tests. But I would assume her alt mode would be around somewhere if it was her." Ironhide nodded before feeling Aurora stir as she dreamed "Is there a picture of her?" He asked causing Ratchet to nod with a smirk "She kind of looks like you". The picture was of a Femme about the height of Ratchet with bright blue optics and a paint job that was black, grey and a very dark red color. "Wait. There's a picture of her with Optimus when he too worked at Iacon" Ratchet showed the picture causing Ironhide to glare at it "He's too close to her" He stated making Ratchet chuckle under his breath "So Optimus knows her" Ratchet said putting the hologram picture away. "Would seem so" Hide grumbled under his breath before going quiet as Aurora started to tiredly lift her head. "Hey, little one how are you feeling?" Ratchet asked quietly as he sat back down "Like I got hit by a fragging bus" She said making Ironhide let out a loud laugh "Langued" Ratchet scolded making her smirk. "As I was scanning you I did find some things I'd like to share" Ratchet said after Ironhide stopped laughing.
After hearing what Ratchet had to say Aurora stared at the two of them before shaking her head once "I'm not human?" She asked confused before getting nods from them both. "Well that was unexpected" She said trying to stay calm "I was also wondering Young one if you would be okay with me and Ratchet taking you in? We aren't your actual creators but we'd like to help you navigate the Cybertronian world" He explained causing her to stare at him. "You want to be my parents?" she asked getting choked up they looked at each other before nodding "That would be amazing" Aurora said as her eyes filled with tears before she hugged Ironhide "Sparklet your leaking" He said before hugging her back "I'm crying. But they are happy tears" She said sniffing before reaching over to bring Ratchet into a hug. "Easy! You'll reopen your wounds" Ratchet scolded before smiling as he returned the hug.
