TFP prologue

New lost

The day started like it normally did. After I woke up, get dressed and take breakfast I went to the command center, where everyone comes one by one. I, like usually go to PeaceStar, see if I could learn something new. But I never knew it would be last time I got a chance to ask her because I wouldn't see her again.

The weeks have turned into months and it was winter time. Well, it doesn't look so in Jasper, but I know that in other places there is. The Holidays have passed on and it was like the first one with them. It was nothing special. Since I knew they were middle of missions, war, and work, that I didn't want to bother them. Instead, I served them warm Energon with screw-nuts. They like it. I know because guys start to ask when I'll make more. Of course, Peace knew why I made it, so all I got was sweet hug and holoprojector. It should allow me to go out without anyone to notice I'm a cyborg. Also, I could change my clothes fast and snappy. Cool. And like usual Sweet hugs me tightly like every day.

But I have noticed certain of her. When there's time Star is needed on the field, is usually me or PeaceStar, not SweetStar. she usually stays on the base. I know she was youngest of the Star, but I'm amateur compared to her. I wonder why so?

Right then thoughts were interrupted by Sweet once again when she glomps on me.

"Morning Sweet," said PeaceStar without taking her look from her monitor.

"Morning, sis! Morning Elena!" she said cheerfully.

"Morning..." I said. I have got used this so many times that I knew it's pointless to get her off. And everyone seems to enjoy the view. Well, everyone except Optimus. He is either out on a drive or in monitor checking something. Today he was outside on patrol looking for Energon. I figured it out right when he sends a message that he found one mine of Energon and need others to come. A cording to the Coordinates he was in the middle of Alaska.

Ratchet prepared the ground bridge so, others could go through with it. Peace decided to go with them just in case.

"What kind is Alaska?" asked SweetStar from me.

"Alaska is known for its winter views and dog sleigh"

"It's full of snow?" asked SweetStar excited.

"Yes, at this time of year," I said.

"I want to see! Can we go, please!" she begged. I shouldn't be surprised. After all, she represents ice, so it's obvious she likes winter. So I agreed, dressed for winter and we followed by other through the bridge.

Optimus and others notice us just when the bridge closed.

"What are you doing here?" asked Arcee.

"Sweet wanted to see the place when she heard it's covered with snow," I said.

"With what?" asked Cliffjumper.

"The white stuff that comes this time of year. It happens here on earth." said PeaceStar. "unfortunately we're in the cave, so it's bit useless."

"Cave of ice," I asked. In this everyone looked around and notice I was right. The whole cave was actually covered in ice. Before any of them could take a step I stopped them.

"Be careful. The ice is fragile here. One big noise and it falls from the top." I said and point on which was full of ice spikes.

"Ice is too sharp like a blade. It could slice you. Or at least three of us" In this, I meant me, PeaceStar and SweetStar.

"Understood," said Optimus. "We'll move on in our vehicle mode. PeaceStar you look for the energon. Elena, stay near SweetStar." I didn't know why, but I agreed. Sweet asked me to take her here, so I have stay near her.
