Meeting (Chapter 1)

Nightmare

Moon

I wake up, stretching. It was gorgeous. The orange sun was beaming down on me, warm air sending a calming chill down my back. The gigantic rock piles collected the orange dust that flew by, making them more orange as time went on.

A breeze knocks into me, which I breath in happily. My lungs take in the cool air greedily, wanting more.

Nightshade is still cuddling with me, his breathing constant and deep.

He stirs a little, stretching out his wings and slowly getting up.

He shook off and stretched again.

We walked over to the elevator and went down.

I felt a little weak to my knees for a second, but I just shake it off and continue down the steps.

Only Optimus was there, and he was standing by the main console, giving me a suspicious look.

"Where were you last night?" He asks, arms crossed.

"I told you. I went do drop off Anti. I had to stay a little later to wait till his parents came home." I reply, getting a little uncomfortable with his tone and how his eyes suspiciously watched me.

"Then why did you not wake us?"

"You guys go through a lot each day. You wouldnt be too happy with me if I woke you up just to tell you I got back."

He snarled, suddenly kneeling down and getting in my face.

"You are a liar." He seethed, sliding on his facemask.

"What?" I say, backing away.

Nightshade stomped, flapping his wings nervously.

Optimus took out his blade, pointing it at me.

"You betrayed us."

I couldnt say anything. I just kept backing up. Ive never seen Optimus like this.

Nightshade realized what was happening. He took a strong wingflap, circling above us. Then he came down in a dive, kicking Optimus in the back of the head.

He groaned, his head flying downwards.

He snarled at Nightshade, slapping him away towards a wall with all his might.

He whinyed as his neck collided with the metal stairs.

I heard a snap, and blood started coming from his chest.

"No!" I screamed, running towards him.

My best friend just lay there, shaking as blood continued to spill from him.

"Stay with me, dont leave me!" I screech, still running towards him.

I look at my feet, but Im not moving. Im glued in place. My feet still moved, but they would just stay on the same spot.
