TFP: Alone

Chapter 15: "When you've learned your lesson."

Legacy's P.O.V.

I was morning now and it was time I got to school. The twins and I readied ourselves and it was time we left. The twins leaped in the air and latched onto the edge of the hole in the ceiling, pulling themselves out.

Then, they looked down to me and I let out a breath and give them a nervous look. Rack takes my bag and Ruin holds his hand out for me. I jump up and flail my arms, my hand somehow finding Ruin's. He pulled me up and out easily and we made our way to the transport lifts.

When we were in the transport lifts, I was looking out and at the different levels. We were getting to the third level when I saw another Bot going down in the fourth level transport. I made optic contact with the mech and my spark leapt in my throat. Dad was giving me the most hateful glare that I had ever seen in my entire existence. His door wings were low and his features reflected his anger.

Soon we couldn't see each other anymore and I remained still, in schock and fear.

"What's the matter?" One of the twins inquired.

"I just saw my sire. He knows I snuck out." I say fearfully.

"You snuck out?!" Ruin starts.

"You said he was okay with you coming with us." Rack finished.

"I lied. I just wanted to get out. I'm sorry." I breathe.

"Just make sure we're not to blame when you talk to your sire." They respond. I nod, feeling knots in my stomach, thinking about the trouble I'll get into.

Sideswipe's P.O.V.

Legacy walked into the classroom in a solemn mood. She sat down behind me and I swivel around in my seat to see her tucking her legs beneath her. 

"What's the matter with you?" I ask.

"I'm gonna be in trouble when I get home." She sighs, rubbing her face with her servos.

"What'd ya do?" I inquire.

"I went to the twin's place, when my sire told me not to. And he caught me coming up in the transport lifts." She huffed. I whistled.

"I never thought that you'd be the type to sneak out. Such a little rebel." I tease.

"I'm not little." She smiled sadly, punching me shoulder softly.

"Whatever you say... So, what'd you do at the twin's place?" I ask, wiggling my optic-brows. 

"Nothing like that," She rolled her optics. "We just talked." She concluded. I nod.

"Well, tell me what happens with your sire. I have to say, I'm impressed that you'd disobey him." I say. She perks her helm up.

"From what you told me, he seems like a hard-aft and someone needs to stand up to him." I shrug. Her optic brows drew together and she took a deep intake, her vents rattling.

"I guess so." Legacy let out the rattiling breath.

"I'm sure you'll be fine." I say reassuringly.

"And you should really get that checked out." I say trying to lighten the mood, referring to her intakes. We both chuckle, although hers was obviously forced.

Smokescreen's P.O.V.

It was the end of the  day and I was anticipating my creation. She should be here any minute now.

After a few more moments, the door hissed as it slid open. She stepped through the doorway with a shameful look on her face.

"Dad I-" She starts.

"Save it," I interrupt. "I told you to go home and you disobeyed me. I'm so disappointed in you." I could see my words cutting her like a knife. 

"Give me your datapad." I order, holding my hand out.

"I have my translator on there. I can't." She says worriedly.

"Well, you seemed confident enough in yourself to go off with your friends." I growl. I saw the tears welling up in her eyes as she reached into her pack, pulling out the datapad, and placing it in my servo.

"When can I have it back?" She croaked.

"When you've learned your lesson." I answer.

A/N: Sorry the chapter is so short. I haven't had much time to write. I'm going to slow these updates down. I feel like you guys would rather have a quality chapter than having me update crappy ones. I'm sorry! I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter. Thanks! 'Till next time! XD
