And So It Begins

Chapter 10 - The Star Of Something New

The Witwicky siblings stared down at the fallen Decepticon with shock and bewilderment when everything just came crashing down on them.

They had just killed an alien WarLord. Ending his tyranny across the universe.

Alex lifted her head slightly when she heard Optimus rise to his pedes while soldiers came out of the shadows, guns bared and ready for any signs that the red optic WarLord was still online.

"You left me no choice brother." the Prime muttered out with regret as he looked down at the Decepticon. His optics flickering red before they offlined for good.

Alex swallowed the lump in her throat as she felt a bit of guilt from Optimus' words. She hadn't realised that the two Leaders were brothers. Now it made sense to her as to why he was so adamant on sacrificing himself to stop Megatron. And he had a few bolts loose because Alex was sure no one was as suicidal as the Prime. Hearing more heavy footsteps behind her, the redhead looked to see Ratchet, Ironhide and Jazz walking slowly towards them as if they were trying to give the Prime a chance to grieve. Alex felt her shoulders drop at their appearance, giving her comfort that Starscream hadn't offline them after all. She turned back to the Prime to see him crouching down in front of her and Sam, a tired look in his blue optics that made him look a thousand years older than he actually was.

"Sam, Alex. I owe you my life." Optimus spoke with a tired tone to match his optics. "We are in your debt." he claimed as he flickered his optics between the two. They landed on Alex for a few nano-kliks longer before the redhead gave a small nod as the Autobot leader did so in return before standing up.

An engine rumbled behind the two humans, making them look to see a tow-truck with a familiar disabled scout on the back park behind them. The driver's door opened revealing Mikaela as she quickly looked up to see the two Witwicky siblings safe and alive. Alex quickly noticed the look her brother and friend were giving each other. A shit-eating smirk crawled onto her face before she slightly nudged Sam.

"Nice job, LadiesMan." Alex only grew even more amused as her brother gave her an amused glare, rubbing the back of his neck slightly.

"We've lost many comrades in this war." the humans looked up behind them to see Optimus staring up at the clear blue sky as the Autobots stood around him, looking down at all the humans that had come to help them. "But gained new ones." Optimus looked down at the humans that had aided them. "Thank you. All of you. You honour us with your bravery." he claimed as he flickered his optics between every single human around him.

"Permission to speak sir." Alex snapped her gaze over at the voice, only for them to land on Bumblebee who was looking up at his leader.

'No...fuckin...way...'

"Permission granted, old friend." Optimus allowed as he looked down at the scout, happy and relieved to hear his voice once more.

"You speak now?!" Sam asked as he looked up with astonishment at the yellow Mech.

"When in the hell did this happen?!" Alex questioned as she crossed her arms under her chest, giving a questioning look to the Camaro.

"I wish to stay with the two." Bumblebee wished as he looked down at the humans, more specifically the Witwicky offsprings.

"If that is they're choice." all, eyes and optics, flickered down to the two, awaiting the answer for the Camaro's question.

"He's your car Sam." Alex kept her gaze on the sky, a light smile on her face.

"You're one that's gonna be fixing him." Sam bantered as he side eyed his sister. The redhead smirked at his words before flickering her gaze to the side.
