Alien Mutant Human Child

Chapter 26 Waiting (Day 5 pt 1)

  ~7 AM~

Friday. Home stretch. Just have to survive today, tomorrow then I'm set. I think. Either way, I'm ready to have my heads in the clouds. 

Anyway, last night was rough. Something about Arrow seemed familiar. Aside from that fact she is a mutant. It was almost like I know her. I'm pretty sure Dad would tell me if I had a sister. Or would he? What if Mom didn't die? What if she was still alive, but in hiding? Then....why would she be in hiding? To keep us safe? Those questions, along with other stuff, kept me up all night. It was stressful. So there I was, sitting on the couch, wearing an over sized shirt, sweats and over sized socks with a blanket around me and a cup of green tea in my hands. The news provided some distraction, but not enough. Just another day in paradise.

~Noon~

So something was seriously wrong. First, I saw some black vans a while ago on the curb. I have never seen them before. And they weren't Decepticon either. I know because I asked Steve. Nor we're they Autobots. And all my neighbors have trucks. Second, the moment I saw the vans, I got a pounding headache. Not even Advil helped. The headache left me unable to do anything. It hurt that bad. So I knew something was very wrong. I wanted to call Dad and find out what was going on, but I also don't want to alarm him. Plus, my headache seemed to get worse when I try to move. So I was on my own with two Decepticon troops who I ordered to keep an eye on the vans. I was currently on the couch on my side, waiting for my head to crack open. TV was off, lights off, curtains pulled. That bad. I was about to fall asleep when I heard a knock from my front door. 

"Steve. Who's at my door?" I asked.

"Humans. Official ones." Steve answered. I groaned as I slowly stood up and slowly made my way to the door. I cracked it open and looked outside. 

"Miss Grace?" One of the men in suits asked.

"What?" I groaned. My head was pounding. 

"May we come in?" The second man asked.

"Why?" I narrowed my eyes. 

"We just have a few questions. You see, we're special agents from the government and-" I didn't let them finish. I just slammed the door shut.

"Steve. Kevin. Send them away. Do what ever it takes. Call for backup if needed." I ordered the two as I stumbled back to the couch. Moments later, I heard the sound of transformation, followed by other sounds that I couldn't understand before passing out.


~Fowler's P.O.V~ 12:04 PM


I was interrupted when Maxcine slammed the door in my face. And Opimus' face. 

"That went well." I sighed.

"Maxcine inherited Moon's abilities Agent Fowler. She probably knew we were going to come." Optimus told me. 

"But why didn't she-" I started to ask when the cars in the driveway transformed. Into Decepticons.

"Ratchet. Open the ground bridge." Optimus said over the gun shots. A moment later, a ground bridge opened. "I will cover you." Optimus told me as his veical mode pulled up. I nodded and ran through.

~Optimus' P.O.V~ 12:06 PM


My holoform faded as I transformed and returned fire, knocking the Decepticon troops down. I was about to run through the ground bridge when my joints froze. I tried to move, but couldn't. 

"Don't even think about it." An all too familiar voice hissed through the air. A voice I haven't heard since Maxcine was at the base. In front of me, standing tall and close to my height, appeared Moon.
