Alien Mutant Human Child

Chapter 36 Death

~Arrow's P.O.V~

"Are you sure I can't follow you?" Atem softly asked. This good-bye was getting harder and harder.

I had taken Joe, Lewis, Abby and Atem far away from the lab and had pointed them in the direction towards Montana. However...Atem had decided that maybe I was interesting enough that he wanted to follow me. And in all honesty, I wanted him to follow me too.

"I'm sorry. But you gotta stay here and keep an eye on the others. Besides, Dad already has three mutants on his hands, myself included. I don't think a fourth would be a good idea." I explained. Plus, Atem had no idea how to fly. "But I will do my best to keep my eyes open for you." I added, softly smiling.

"Thank you." Atem nodded with a small smile before he leaned down and ever so gently kissed my head. Naturally, I felt my face heat up. "Be safe?" He asked when he pulled away.

"Y-y-yeah. Sure." I nodded, still in a daze by what had happened. I watched as he turned to the others and walked towards them.

"Ssssssssee you around Arrow." Abby waved at me before following.

"We'll call if we need you." Lewis assured as he went after Abby and Atem.

"Make sure the lass is alive." Joe told me, not even looking at he before he started walking. I watched the four of them before turning around and walking in the opposite direction.

~Moon's P.O.V~

I stood in front of the med bay door, leaning against the wall across it with a glare. We had left that lab three hours ago, while Arrow returned two hours ago. Inside the med bay was Maxcine, who had been shot by the now dead human called Silas. Currently, Knockout was in there, working on her, while I was left out here to wait. Arrow was, last I checked, debriefing her father on the locations of the four mutants we had discovered in the lab. Where they were now I had no idea, nor any intention on ever finding out. They were on their own now. All four of them.

My eyes looked towards my nine o'clock when I heard the sound of metal feet on metal flooring.

"Any word?" Megatron asked as he stood next to me in the glory that is his 30 feet height.

"No." I answered, keeping my eyes locked on the door, arms crossed.

"I assume you've kept your mind out of Knockout's?" Megatron asked, glancing down at me.

"It's been tempting. But your troops do provide decent distractions." I answered with a shrug. I didn't need to look up at Megatron to see him nod. It was quiet between us for a few moments before I felt a gentle servo scope me up and bring me 30 feet into the air.

"Worried much?" I asked, looking at him.

"So are you. Anyone can tell from your tears." Megatron answered, which made me blink. It was in that moment that I felt hot streams from my eyes flow down my face.

"I had no idea." I mumbled, using the sleeve of my wind breaker to whip them away.

"I noticed. You looked quite angry despite your tears." Megatron chuckled softly as he gently cleared my chin of the salty liquid.

"I'd rather that then an insane sobbing mess." I snorted as I lifted my head back to give him better access.

"Of course." Megatron mumbled before turning to the med-bay doors. "Answer me this. Is she still alive?" He asked after a moment.

"Yes." I hesitated because I knew. "But........" I tried to speak but words were failing me.

"But?" Megatron asked. He didn't like the tone I was using. Which was worried filled.

"Just...barley." I finished before hiding my face in my hands, letting all the worry I had out.

~A few hours later~

"He what?! Kissed you?!" I blinked at Arrow, who was standing in front of me with a blush, hugging her arm. Behind me, Megatron was watching, trying to not chuckle. He already knew what had happened.

"I-it was on the forehead...." Arrow said as her blush deepened. I face palmed with a groan.

"Primus I thought this day would never come." My words were muffled by my hand.

"It would have eventually." Megatron told me with a hint of a smirk in his voice.

"You're enjoying this way more then you need to be." I looked at him with an annoyed expression.

"M-maybe wh-when he's older...he can join us." Arrow said sheepishly.

"Teenage hormones are taking over!" I threw my hands into the air, walking so I was next to Megatron. "Next it'll be boy bands and sappy vampire romance books." I added, leaning against his foot.

"I'm sure that won't happen." Megatron tried to assure me. "I'm sure Arrow will skip that phase. Unlike you did." He added, clearly holding back a laugh.

"You were into boy bands and vampire books?" Arrow asked, shocked.

"Oh shut up!" I huffed, turning away with a heated face. "It was a phase and I was still human." I added.

"Making excuses Mum? You never do that." Arrow smirked, walking up.

"Primus you sound like your father!" I face palmed again with a sigh.

"Is that good or bad?" Megatron asked.

"I don't have intentions of-" I started to answer when I felt something inside of me snap. A small scream and a thud made me look over to see Arrow on the ground, clutching her chest.

"Arrow!" Both me and Megatron called out as I jogged over, lifting Arrow up with my arms.

"Wh-what was that?" The gray winged girl asked, confused.

"I'm not sure....." I answered. That's when I got the answer as to why both me and Arrow felt a snap. And it would be the worst pain I have ever felt.

Time of death; 9:07 PM

//Do you hate me yet?! Anywho, that pretty muchs ends it. Well....one last chapter after this....then it's the end.
