TFP: Sister of a Con

Better

Optimus POV:

"Come on, Galix." I say, extending both of my arms to her.
"This is so embarrassing..." She complains, beginning to stand.
"It's your own fault for taking the hit for me." I tease
"Exactly! You would have gotten hurt!" she yells
"You don't need to protect me."
"Yes, I do. It's my job." She says, very seriously.
"And it's my job to protect you."
She slides down from the berth and steadies herself, almost falling over. I start to reach towards her, but she pushes my servo away.
"I'm fiiiine." She wales
"You haven't stood in about a human week. You where not fine!"
"Well, now I am. And now I feel like a-a SPARKLING learning to WALK. This is...humiliating..."
She takes a few steps, falling forwards a little, but a catch her and stand her up again. Walking backwards.

"Thanks..." She pouts
"No problem. Now, come and walk."
She walks a few more steps, she's looking down, giving me a chance to back up and making her walk more than she expects.
"Optimus...am I even...walking forward...?" She asks
"Yes ma'am." I reply, slightly laughing.
"Wait, are you moving!? Optimus! " She looks up and back, seeing how much she has walked. "You tricked me!" She yells and jumps for me.
Knowing she won't make, I catch her, holding her up by the bottom of her arms. like a human sparkling holding a feline. 
"Strategy." She says out of the blue
"What?"
"I knew you would catch me." She smiles
My optics widen and she attacks me with tickles, making me laugh hysterically.
"HA! I'm ALPHA!!" She yells and continues to tickle me.
"OkAy oKay! S-stop!"
She stops and relaxes.
"Wait... wasn't seriouse. I don't want to be leader. I will never be ready for that. Never." She says frantically 
"Oh, well that's to bad. I was thinking if making you my second in command. Oh well I'm sure Bulkhead will enjo-"
"NO NO NO! I would love you be your second in comma- You tricked me didn't you?"
I grin at her and she smiles back.
"Thanks." She says
"For what?" I ask
"For being there for me."

She reaches her arms out asking for a hug, I give one to her and place her down on the ground.

"Want to see everyone?"
"Please."

Me letting Galix use my arm for support, we exit my berth room and into the main hanger. Everyone, patiently waiting to greet her.

"Galix!" They all exclaim, running over to give a hug.
"Hey guys." She smiles.
Transferring from one 'bot to the next until she gets back to the opposite side of me. 
"How are you feeling?"  Arcee asks 
"A little woozy once in a while, but much better than I once was. Maybe, even better than before I went into the coma." She replays 
":How so?:" 
"Thanks to, Ratchet's medical experience. I'm finally able to relax, after so many years. Thanks to you all, I know I can be strong. -she looks up at me- And thanks to Optimus, I know I'm never alone." Galix smiles, making me smile back and everyone else aww.
 She turns back to face everyone. 
"I know... That seems almost nothing to do with the question...but, It means everything to me. You all are family. Forever and always." She says smiling one of her brightest smiles. 

~Time skip and Galix POV~ 

The team went on a mission. Don't know what, but I don't really care since I can't go and I believe Optimus has company, so I'm no- Oh who am I kidding I'm always worried about him! Ugh... But, Miko brought a bunch of Disney movies for me and her to watch. Such as, Mulan, Brave, Tangled, Frozen, Princess and the Frog, Little mermaid, mostly princess movies and then Hercules. After all those movies. I wonder what is taking them so long. I turn around, and realize I've been left alone! I turn more, and now I know why it's so quite...  

"WHAT IN THE PITS OF KAON!?" I yell, crawling over to my team in a sort of stasis lock. 
"Megatron's warship. The movies kept you occupied so you wouldn't worry." 
"Wait. THE WARSHIP?! What do you mean?!" 
"Dark energon." He reply's, helping up to my peds and setting me over to a wall for support.  
"Eh, umm..... how long have I been staring at the screen?" I ask 
"Two days." 
"Well. That's embarrassing."  
I steadily walk over to Optimus and grab his servo. 
"How are we going to fix this?" I ask 
"Not we. Them." He point at the comm-system, showing the humans.
"OH. That's just....peachy..." 

~Time skip~

An hour has passed by and I've started to pace. Seems like I can walk better, but I have a small limp. I hear a noise, similar to the one when you get hit really, really hard. I look back and see Optimus holding his helm and the rest of the team stretching.

"Optimus!" I yell. Jumping, grabbing onto his cables and placing a small kiss on his cheek. "I can't even leave you alone for a second, can I?"
He let's out a small chuckle hugging me back.
"I suppose not." 

~Time skip~ 

Checking on everyone's vitals. They look fine, me and Ratchet just want to make sure their okay, for sure. 
"How ya doing, Arcee?" I ask 
"I'm fine." She reply's sitting up. "And you?"  
"Limping, but other wise, same." 
She motions me to sit next to her.
"Better than your past?" She whispers 
"Definitely." I laugh "This has honestly been the best days of my life. That probably sounds selfish doesn't it?" I ask 
"You have a good reason. It's not your fault." She says, putting and arm over my shoulder. 
"Thanks." I smile  "Somehow, in the future. I feel like someone's going to ruin that for me." I joke 
"Ha! Highly doubt it." 
"Well, we'll see."  

Short short I know. And I apologize. I haven't been able to write because this week has been very stressful. Again, I apologize. Hope you enjoyed this chapter, have a good morning, evening or night. 

With love,
