Fear || Transformers

Chapter 3:

MALLORY'S POV

We arrived at an old church. I didn't feel like getting out of the car. I needed some time to process everything I witnessed. Not only that, but I need to process what the shard the good monster gave her.

It almost looked like a diamond, but it was like a stone. It glowed blue a couple of times and faded after a while.

I didn't listen in on anything anyone was saying until I heard a crack, a loud crack.

"They can track us?!"

Obviously, it was the guy in the car. I ignored what they were talking about and stared down at the shard.

-Where did-you find-that?-

I jumped at bit when the Camaro spoke and calmed down, knowing that there was nothing to be scared of. I already saw another monster, but he saved me just like the one in the woods.

"Um, the monster gave it to me. He said it's to protect me."

-Well, the-monster you-refer to is-Opt-imus-Prime.- It said as I stared at the radio.

"He had a name?" The car whirred which I guess was a yes. Then I looked back at the shard before the radio.

"Do you have a name?" I asked it.

-Bumblebee.- Bumblebee said as I smiled. "I'm Mallory."

-I know.-

"How do you-? Wait, do you know my sister?" I didn't get a response back so I just shrugged it off, already guessing the answer.

"Mal, come on out. We need to talk." I heard as I roll my eyes and got out the car.

"Mal, I know how you fe-"

"No, you don't. You lied to me!" I shouted as she looked away. "Everyday, I thought you were visting Dad, but really you were doing this?! And they know more about me than I know about them?! What else have you been lying to me about?!"

"I didn't lie to you, I just didn't tell you where I was going."

"That's the same thing, Courtney! I tell you everything that happens to me and you couldn't even think one second that maybe I was worried about where you would be going and at least tell me the truth!" I screamed at her before roughly grabs my shoulders.

"I couldn't tell you, Mallory! Okay?! I had to keep you safe! There were Decepticons after me and I couldn't tell you because I was afraid you would get in danger as well! I couldn't allow it! That's why I did it! I love you to the bottom of my heart, Mal! But I couldn't bare to lose you like I lost Mom!"

"What?" Courtney looked away and I couldn't understand why. That's when it all came out.

"Mom didn't die from cancer. She died from the Decepticons."

SYDNEY'S POV

I walked out of the aircraft that carried me and the crew and saw a helicopter approach, Optimus' body clipped to it. The clips snapped and Optimus' body dropped to the ground.

It was true.

He really was dead. I walked over to him, staring into his lifeless optics. Tears erupted from my eyes as I placed a hand on his face.

"I'm sorry, Sid." Ironhide spoke sadly as I shook my head. "It's not anyone's fault. Only Megatron's."

I was interrupted by engines approaching. I looked to see the military pointing their guns at the Autobots. I gasped as I raced over to them.

"Don't! They didn't do it!"

"Stand down, soldiers! Stand down!" Will shouted to the soldiers before I heard his annoying voice.

"You're not in command anymore. I am." Galloway. I turned and glared as he approached my brother.

"How-?"

"A direct order from the President of the United States that's who. These things are going back to where they belong. In the scrapyard..." He snapped before he looked at me.

"...And you, you're coming with me." Soldiers came up behind me and grabbed at my arms.

"Wait, what?!"

"What the hell is going on?!" Will yelled as Galloway got into his face.

"Your 'sister' is not who you think she is. She's dangerous. She needs to be detained! Let's go!" He shouted to the soldiers as they beagn tp drag me off.

"Hey! Let me go! Will!" I screamed for my brother as I reached my hand for him. His hand reached for mine too but I lost my grip on it.

"Will!" Was the last thing I said before I disappeared out of their sight.

WILLIAM'S POV

I watched as my little sister was dragged out of the cargo bay. I wanted to run after her so badly, but the soldiers were holding me back.

"Don't worry, Will. We'll get her back." Epps assured as I looked at him.

"I hope so, man. I hope so."

MALLORY'S POV

I couldn't sleep a wink. Even though I felt safe in Bumblebee's car mode, I still was afraid those mo-Decepticons will come after me again.

I laid, wide awake, not able to even shut my eyes. What's worse about it is that I found out something that I have believed for 6 years was all a lie.

I couldn't trust my sister anymore. She's lied to me all my life. She lied about my mom, where she's been going, I don't even know if she's lying when she's saying she loves me.

But in the end, she had every right to. She didn't want me to be upset and she didn't want me getting hurt. Which I now understand.

But it will take time to fully trust her again. I need more time.

-Can't sleep?-

I sat up in the seat and nodded before I hugged my knees to my chest.

"Bee...what happened to Optimus today was my fault. If I wasn't there, he wouldn't have died trying to protect me." Bumblebee rumbled before I sighed.

-No one-saw it coming-Mal-lory.-And it isn't-your fault. Opt-imus wanted to-protect you. It was-always his-passion. He-couldn't bare to-watch this-world end up-like Cy-ber-tron.-

"Is that where you guys are from?" Bumblebee once again rumbled before I smiled and sighed.

"Thanks, Bee."
