Zara's New Life

Chapter 2: Greetings and Recovery.

I opened my eyes slowly, letting them a just to the light. I felt sore and drowsy. I looked around at my surrounding, I appear to be in a hospital room but then again the room was too tall to be a hospital room so maybe a med bay or something. I felt something in my left arm so I looked over and saw that I was hooked up to an IV drip.

"How are you doing?" I heard a male voice. I looked to my right and saw a doctor with a clipboard in his hand.

"How do you think I'm doing?" I said like the answer was obvious and rubbing my face with my right hand.

The man chuckled. "I suppose you would be in quite a bit of pain seeing how that was quite a beating you took."

Now that I thought about it I wasn't in that much pain than I thought I would be.

"Actually I'm not in that much pain." I replied.

The man smiled while writing something on his clipboard.

"How long was I out for?" I asked.

"A few days." He replied. He finished writing. "There's someone who would like to talk to you." He said before turning and nodding to someone. Then Mr. Lennox came into view. He knelt down before talking.

"Hi Zara." He said.

"Hey Mr Lennox." I said sitting up a little

"please call me Will." I smiled at him. "So, how are you?" he asked.

"I could be better."

"Do you remember what happened?"

"I was just walking along the roadside, minding my own business when a Decepticon jumped out from the bush above me and decides to attack me." Will seem to flinch in surprised when I mentioned the word Decepticon. Will stood up.

"You seem tiered, get some rest and I'll see you soon." And with that he turned and left without another word. I was confused, why would he just up and leave? Was it something I said? I didn't let it get tome, I laid back down and fell to sleep.

.........................with Will......................................

Will walked out of the med bay to be join by Optimus a few meters down the hall. They continued walking while they talked.

"Looks like IronHide was right." Will said.

"What did the sparkling say?" Optimus asked.

"She said that she was walking along the roadside when a Decepticon jumped out and attacked her."

Optimus' optics widened a little.

"She actually said Decepticon?"

"Yes." Will reached into his shirt pocket and pulled out an iPod touch with a pair of earphones rapped around it. He stared at the iPod.

"Is something bothering you Will?" asked Optimus.

"Yeah,the fact that she knows about the Decepticons as well as having pictures of you guys on her iPod here, I just don't get it. It'snot like we announced your arrival to earth publicly."

Just then Bumblebee came down the hall.

"How is the sparkling?" Bumblebee asked using different voice clips over his speakers.

"She is doing fine Bumblebee." Will answered.

"May I see her?"

"You may old friend." Optimus said kindly.

Bumblebee walked by Optimus and Will and they followed him into the med bay.

Thethree of them gathered around my bed while I slept, just looking at me.
