Meeting (Chapter 1)

Searching

S

The day Moon went missing

I was finishing some paperwork.

  Something in me felt...  Wrong.

  Something didn't feel right. I felt like something was happening. And it wasn't good.

  I comm Ratchet.

  She and Anti were taken.

  The baby.

  The baby....

  It was due in four days...

  Four...

  I have to find her.  Now.

  I run out of my house as fast as I could go, running to the guard's station.

  I go straight to the General.

  "Alpha Moon was kidnapped on Earth. Look in the skies. Look everywhere!" I shout, my heart racing.

  The General went pale, then his eyes hardened.

  An armada of heavily armed guards go through several portals at the same time, going all across Earth.

  "We'll find her." The General said, his eyes dangerous.  Then he bolts through one of the portals, the point of his bronze spear dragging behind him.

  I nod.

  I teleport to the base, Ratchet typing nervously and shouting messages into the console. 

  "Ratchet.  They have teams looking everywhere."

  He turns to me, looking very angry at himself.

  "I should have never let her leave..." He bangs his fist. "This is my fault."

  "Ratchet. Don't blame yourself."

  He looks to the side, pained.

  "I don't understand. She was so easy to track the first time."  He rubs his head.

  "First time?" I ask.

  "It's how she met us. She got captured by Starscream, and then a strong signal came up."

  That's how they found her.

  "Do you know what she was wearing?"

  He nods, telling me what she wore.

  I try concentrating.

  I see her face and what she wore. I concentrate on her shadow.

  I get a flash of a completely metal room, feeling my back against a small figure.

  Only one tinted purple light was attatched to the ceiling.

  I heard a loud rumble in the floor. My bones were rattling.

  We were backed up against a corner. Nothing in the room was with them. Yet.

I snap back into the base, telling Ratchet what I saw.

  He confirmed that they were on the warship.

  Out of nowhere, I feel a smack across my cheek.
