Dark Paradise [Transformers] {1}

Chapter 4

I sat in the passenger seat, watching the Camaro driving itself. "You not a bad driver," I muttered before looking outside the window. "Yet could have been better if this wouldn't be a piece-of-crap Camaro."

The car suddenly stopped at the tunnel and the passenger door opened, "Oh come on," I grumbled as I climbed out. "I didn't mean . . ."

The passenger door closed and the car did a U-turn. "Great," I said sarcastically. "Me and my big mouth." I groaned as I placed my hands behind my head before I looked back to where the Camaro went.

My jaw dropped as I saw the Camaro coming back but it was different. So much different. It was still yellow and black, but it was 2006 Chevrolet Camaro. "What?" I breathed out. "No way." It stopped in front of me and I walked around to climb into the driver seat before it started to drive us off again.

A few minutes after, I watched as the Camaro drove into a fence, forcing it open and then continued driving further into the empty area. The Camaro stopped in front of the large white house and I climbed out. I stood in front of the car, looking up at the night sky to watch a few balls of fiery silver light flew across the sky, above my head.

They looked like falling stars or silver comets, falling to different areas. The radio of the Camaro suddenly turned on, ". . . Let's go, let's go . . ."

I climbed into the driver seat and shut the door before the car drove itself again. The Camaro drove me into an empty, large and secluded alley way before it stopped in the middle.

"Why are we here?" I asked and waited for a moment before frowning as I looked forwards to see into the thick fog, spotting a rather large truck.

I climbed out of the car and stood in front of it's hood, watching as the large truck made it's way towards me. I heard noises behind me and turned around to see more several cars driving towards me.

I turned back around at the truck as it parked directly in front of me before it's parts shifted and it started to transform. I looked around as the other cars and even my Camaro - that backed away, transforming.

I looked back at the robot that was the truck, to see it finished. He kneeled in front of me and I took a step back. "Are you Ronny Lauren Witwicky, descendent of Archibald Witwicky?" He asked.

I swallowed, "Yeah," I said. "My name is Optimus Prime," He introduced himself, "We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron."

"But you can call us Autobots for short," The robot that was the ambulance said. "Autobots . . ." I repeated. "What's cracking, little bitch?" A robot said and I turned to my right to see it was the silvery black one. "My first lieutenant. Designation, Jazz," Optimus said. "This looks like a cool place to kick it," Jazz said, spinning around before jumping up onto an abandon car, one leg handing off lazily.

"What is that? How did he learn to talk like that?" I asked. "We've learned Earth's languages through the World Wide Web," Optimus explained before the large one covered in weapons shifted his position, making me turned to him. "My weapons specialist, Ironhide."

Ironhide pushed out two large canons, spanning them around and strapped them to his arms before pointing them at me, "You feeling lucky, punk?"

"Easy, Ironhide," Optimus said. "Just kidding. I just wanted to show her my cannons," Ironhide said. I turned back to Optimus and he gestured towards the former ambulance, "Our medical officer, Ratchet."

"How you doing young female?" He asked and I smiled before turning back to Optimus. "You already know your guardian, Bumblebee," Optimus said and I looked at my former Camaro, and he started to punching the air while walking backwards

"Bumblebee, huh?" I asked with a smile. "Check on the rep, yep, second to none." He stopped and looked down at me, "So you're my guardian, huh?" I asked and he nodded.

"His vocal processors were damaged in battle," Ratchet informed as he pointed a laser at Bumblebee's throat, making him cough. "I'm still working on them." I turned back to Optimus, "But why are you here?" I asked. "We are here looking for the All Spark. And we must find it before Megatron," He informed.

"Megatron?" I repeated. "Our planet was once a powerful empire, peaceful and just, until we were betrayed by Megatron, leader of the Decepticons," He explained, "All who defied them were destroyed. Our war finally consumed the planet, and the All Spark was lost to the stars. Megatron followed it to Earth, where Captain Witwicky found him."

"My grandfather," I said. "It was an accident that intertwined our fates," He said. "Megatron crash-landed before he could retrieve the Cube. He accidentally activated his navigation system. The coordinates to the Cube's location on Earth were imprinted on his glasses."

"How'd you know about his glasses?" I asked. "We scanned it's location and found out it was with you," He informed. "If the Decepticons find the All Spark, they will use its power to transform Earth's machines and build a new army. And the human race will be extinguished. Ronny Witwicky, you hold the key to Earth's survival."

I thought for a moment and sighed, "It's a good thing that the glasses are still with me," I told them. "It's at my house." Optimus nodded, "Lead us."
