Mackenzie Rosita Prime POV

I was sitting on the porch. All Cybertronian's and Rick's group was out in the street. "I will die before I let you have my daughter!" Dad snarled angrily. He was loosing his temper quickly. 

"She is not yours and she never was!" My real mother Kelsie snarled. Dad glared at her angry. 

Soon everyone started yelling. I saw people come out from the streets. 

"SHE WILL ALWAYS BE OUR FAMILY!"

"YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TAKE HER!" 

"SHE STOPPED BEING YOURS THE MINUTE YOU ABUSED HER-"

"I IMPRINTED ON HER!" Everyone fell silent. We all turned. "What?" Kelsie asked. "You cannot touch her because I imprinted on her." Everyone tensed. "What does that mean?" Mom asked. 

"They're coming?" Ironhide asked. "They're on their way."

"Who?" Rick asked. 

"The Guardian knights. Their on the way to Earth as we speak. Their job is to protect whoever a Prime imprinted on. I imprinted on Kenzie just last night and they're coming to protect her until they die!"

Everyone tensed. 

Mom looked. "I did it to protect her from the likes of her!" Dad growled pointing at Kelsie. I tensed. 


I was with Glenn, Tara and Noah. I was on the scavenging crew. Dad was out for a drive. "Glenn, Tara, Noah, Kenzie?" A man asked. "Yeah."

"Nice to meet you. I'm Aiden. You met Nicholas pulling gate duty." Aiden said. "Hey."

"You're Deanna's son?" I asked. "That's right. I hear you got experience making supply runs." Aiden said. "I saw your pantry. You guys seem to do pretty well." I said. 

"Yeah, well, had some training before this. ROTC." Aiden said. "Was nearing lieutenant when this shit blew in." I nodded. "My brother did ROTC." I said. 

"He didn't make it?" Aiden asked. I felt a pain in my heart. 

I felt Dad's love over the bond he shared with me. "Nah." 

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry a lot these days." I smiled. "Come on, I'll show you the ropes."

"We doing a run today?" Tara asked. "Just a dry run. Show you the terrain outside the walls, see how you do. Weigh each other's sack a little, you know?"

"No, I don't, but cool." Tara smiled. 

"What about weapons?"

"We pulled put some sweet-ass biscuits for today. I see you already have one." Aiden said. 

"Yeah, Dad told me Deanna is only allowing me and the 'Bots to have guns on us." I said. "That yours?" He asked about my pistol. "No, it's my dad's. It has a silencer built into it." I said. 

Aiden nodded. 


I followed behind everyone and felt a separate bond open. I frowned. I turned. I didn't see anything. "Kenzie!"

I followed behind Glenn. 

"Son of a bitch!" Aiden snarled. "Help me find it."

Nicholas then whistled loudly. "Shh!"

"Hey! Hey! It's gone." Glenn hissed. "It took down one of our friends. It's nearby, we're not letting to go." Aiden snapped. 

Nicholas whistled and the walker came out from behind Aiden. "Hey!"

Noah pulled out his gun. "THE REST OF YOU, BACK OFF!"

They tried to chain up the walker but it turned back on Aiden. 

He threw it back and it went for me. I tried to keep it away. 

Suddenly there was a roar. A three headed metal dragon grabbed the walker and all three heads ripped it to shreds. I watched shocked. 

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Aiden snarled at me. "Yeah, what the hell?" Tara snapped. "YOU ALMOST GOT HER KILLED!" Glenn snarled. "I told you all to stay back! I told you to listen to every damn thing I said. I told you that."

I scoffed. "Come on."

The three headed predacon growled at Aiden and then jumped up into the air and circled above us. "You four need new gigs. You're not ready for runs yet." Aiden said. "Yeah, pretty sure you got that backwards." I snapped. 

"Hey. Hey. Hey." Aiden touched my arm. I turned. "Look, we got a way of doing things around here." He said. "You tied up walkers." I snapped. 

"It killed our friend." He said like it was justified. "Look, I'm not having this conversation. You obey my orders out there."

"Then we're just as screwed as your last run crew." I sneered. Aiden got in my face. I heard two truck engines. 

"Say that again." Aiden sneered. "No, back off, Aiden." Tara snapped. 

He shoved me. "Come on, man. Just take a step back." Aiden said. I heard a engine revv angrily. 

"No one's impressed. Walk away!" I said. 

"Aiden! What is going on?" Deanna asked. "This girl's got a problem with the way we do things. Why'd you let these people in?"

"Because we actually know what we're doing out there." I stated. Aiden swung and missed. I punched him in the face and knocked him on his ass. 

He dropped and Nicholas charged at me but Dad tackled him and slammed him to the ground his elbow on Nicholas's neck. "WHOA, WHOA! HEY, HEY, HEY!" Rick ran over to Dad. "Let's not do this now."

Mom got in Aiden's face. "You want to end up on your ass again?" She sneered. "Optimus. Come on." Rick shoved Dad off Aiden and he glared angrily at the man as he circled him like circling prey. 

Dad had this killer look in his eyes. "I want everyone to hear me, okay? Rick and his people are part of the community now. Including the Cybertronian's, in all ways. As equals. UNDERSTOOD?" Deanna gave a pointed look at Aiden. "Understood."

"Everyone turn in your weapons. Then you two come talk to me." Deanna told Aiden and Nicholas. 

I sighed. 

"I told you I had a job for you. I'd like you to be our constable. That's what you were. That's what you are. And you, too." Deanna said to Michonne. "Will you accept?"

"Okay." Rick agreed. She turned to Michonne. "Yeah, I'm in."

Dad scoffed and stormed off. Deanna watched him walk off then turned to me. "Thank you."

"For what?" I asked. 

"For knocking him on his ass." I didn't smile and just walked off.
