The Lost Malto

Chapter 2: Family

Nyra's POV:

"Nyra your awake!" The male says. "Who are you? Where am I?" I asked again. My voice was firm. "Your home nyra... we're your parents." Dottie says. My eyes widen. I don't remember much of my past before the lab. Then the assassin life. I shake my head and regain my composure. Showing emotion to anyone who wasn't shadow was weakness. "I don't remember much form before the lab. And I'm not home. Nothing is home when you're always on the move. Where's my bot?" I say. "Mandroids gone. You can't go back there. And don't you want to be home again?" The male says. "I know no home. Home is where we stop for a day or so. I don't know how to fit into society anymore. I am a cold blood killer. You really want that in your home?" I hiss in return. "Well your home now nyra. And no matter what your family." The male says. I look at them with surprise. 'Are they serious? They would let a killer in their house?' I thought. I shake my head again. I don't know them. I can't stay here. "I can't stay. It would be pointless. I'd just pick up a job soon and leave. It's better to leave now then wait." I say. "Nyra your safe here. With your family. Don't you want to feel what you lost 12 years ago?" Dottie asks. "I can't. I don't know how to fit in with the worlds society anymore. Who you once knew in me is dead now. I have killed millions. That should make you turn me away to push away not saying I'm safe and family no matter what. That's not right. Showing emotion is weakness. I need to get shadow and leave. I know it must hurt to see someone you lost alive and well." I say. A part of me I never knew was fighting with me to stay. To be in their warm embrace. But I couldn't. I was trying to get this part of me to go away. So if I try hard enough to make them shun me it should go away. "That's okay. We still love you no matter what." The male says. That part of me danced happily within me. 'No no no! Bad! Very bad!' I snarl in my mind. I went to say something but a smell shut me up. My head rises higher and I sniff. It smells good. My pupils then shrink. 'Poison.' Was the first thing that ran through my head. Most of me went to the thought they were trying to poison me but that amll part that wanted me to stay tried to soothe me. (It's food. Dad's food! Not poison!) That part of me sang happily. They noiced the change in my behavior. "You must be hungry. Breakfast is almost down." The guy says with a smile. "I have to get going." I urge. He starts putting some food on a flat thing. "Well if you want to stay your welcome to have as much as you like." The guy says. That part of me urged to stay. To trust them. My stomach growls slightly. Dottie looks at me and smiles softly. I see part of the house open to the outside and go that way. I jump up getting on the flat surface of it easily. That part of me soon started to fight with me. Wanting to stay. I decided they haven't given me much reason to not trust them so staying for awhile won't be so bad.

I sit crossing my legs looking at them. They smile and part of me just want to jump into their arms and muzzle into them..I kinda want to now but can't. The guy brings me some food and sets it next to me. I picked up a piece of it that I had no idea what it was. It was soft, light brown, round, and had darker spots on it. "It's a pancake." Dottie says. I nod my head and took a small bite. It tasted amazing. I took a bigger bite of it and comped down happily. "Glad to see you like it." The guy says. I nodded. "What's your name? I heard Megatron call her Dottie yesterday but never got yours." I say. I was hoping he wouldn't say 'dad' as that didn't feel right with me barely remembering him. "You can call me Alex or dad. I understand that it might be a little wait for you after 12 years." Alex says. I nod and give a small smile. Soon I hear other footsteps. I look towards where it's coming from and soon two kids. "Your awake!" The smallest one says excitedly. "Yeah..I am little one." I say not really sure what to say. They both smile at me. The smallest one walks up to me. I didn't really know her or I also didn't know why she came to me. I reach out my hand and pat her head. "Hi tiny child..." I say. She laughs softly and she smiles at me. "My name's mo. I'm your little sister." She says. "I'm nyra....I don't know what I am to you.." I say. She looks at me confused. "I don't remember much of the past. Or what ever this is." I say. She nods. "I'm Robby your younger brother. I was a year old when you were kidnapped." Robby says. I nodded. I go back to eating tho. Soon the bots came out of a red wooden building. I still haven't seen shadow yet but I'm not to worried. I dig into my food again with a happy chrip. "Hey nyra." Thrash says. I look back at him and chrip letting him know he has my attention. "How'd you get that cool sacr on the back of you neck and shoulder?" Thrashs asks. Everyone looks at me. "I was beat to the ground by someone from the lab when I was new. Left a long deep gash in my skin. Now there's that." I say. It seemed to surprise them. I didn't know why. I was use to that stuff. It's also why I flinched when megatron was zapped by the arachnimechs. And why I had laid near him and made a soft roar. I got more food which it was like my third time. I didn't know why they were eating so little. This diffused the awkwardness. "Slow down nyra you might get yourself sick if you keep eating so quickly." Alex says. "Well it's my first meal that I've had in a while. How do you guys eat so little?" I ask. "Well there's always lunch and dinner. Or we can get a snack." Robby says. I tilt my head. "You only eat once a day?" Alex asks worriedly. "No. I eat once every 5 to 6 weeks before I eat again. Sometimes longer. This is my first time eating in 7 weeks." I say. "What?! Nyra that isn't good for you!" Dottie says. Her yelling caught me off guard. I had looked back at my food as this was normal. When she yelled it surprised me and I fell if of the surface I was on. I hit the ground with a soft thump before getting right back up with a small jump. "Sorry I didn't mean to make you fall. But nyra you can't not eat for weeks on end." Dottie says. "It's what I know...I told you I don't know how to fit in anymore." I chrip sadly. I have no idea why but I had become more comfortable with them in my short time here. "It's oaky. It's just not good for your body." Mo says placeing her hand on mine. I give a small smile in return. "Wait what did you eat if this is your first time having real food in years?" Twitch asks. "Well it depends on where we are. If we to get food here the way we use to there would be animals on the menu. Birds, fish, squirrels, rabbit, snake, deer, and wild fruit." I say. I hear a sound and look to see a field of cows. "And apparently cows." I add. "Wow. You've tasted a lot of stuff huh?" Bumblebee says. Soon I feel shadow awake and confused. I take a few pancakes in my hand and jump down before running off to the barn.
