Adventures of Raf's Babysitter

Unexpected Reunions

A/N This is what Amelia and Lucy's mom looks like. I do not own the image they belong to their rightful owners.

"Amelia, please come out. Everyone is worried about you," Arcee was trying to coax Amelia out of the metal trailer on top of the Autobots hidden base between three boulders to keep it hidden.

"Please leave me alone!" Amelia yelled through the door as she curled herself into a ball, two weeks have past since their encounter with MECH and Amelia was giving her own living space instead of sleeping inside a tent.

She heard heavy footsteps approach Arcee and the camouflaged trailer, "She still won't come out?" Ratchet's voice questioned as he and Arcee sighed worried about Amelia.

"Not after encountering MECH," Arcee answered gazing at the locked door sad that Amelia has shut everyone out including Raf.

"I'm sorry," Amelia whispered hearing them walk away more tears streamed down her face, "I'm sorry everyone." Crying herself to sleep while everyone in base including Fowler were restless knowing that the strong spirited girl was gone replaced by a distraught teen. 'What happened to the fearless teen always putting her life on the line for the bots and humanity? The girl who always wore an angry facade? Just because you heard his voice after so many years causes you to break down like a baby? You better have some answers,' Amelia mentally berates herself the next morning staring at the mirror in her bathroom looking disheveled. Grabbing a duffel bag with a change of clothes, water bottles and bandage wrappings, Amelia heads downstairs where her bike is prepared head toward her destination alone. Everyone is surprised that Amelia came out of her den but they saw her heading toward her motorcycle.

"Where are you heading?" Bulkhead asked fearing that Amelia would do something stupid.

"Out," was her quick reply, starting the engine of her black motorcycle.

"Out where?" Arcee gently asked.

"I need time to think, alone," Amelia informed while emphasizing the last part. Driving away she was heading toward her mom's shack outside of town, arriving at her destination Amelia shut off her engine. Entering the shack she turns on the lights to see her mother's work, walls covered with pictures of vehicles relating to both Decepticon and MECH but one thing caught her eye a file on a desk covered in loose papers. Amelia picked up the file reading its title, "Project A.S.H," she muttered.

"I was wondering when you would show up, blossom," a voice called out behind Amelia causing her turn around quickly at the intruder.

A woman with red hair and green who looked to be in their early twenties stood behind Amelia with crossed arms giving her a gently smile, "M-mom?" Amelia stuttered hoping this wasn't a dream.

"Hello my blossom," Sonya greeted her daughter as she embraced Amelia in a motherly hug, "I see you found the truth about what happened all those years ago."

"Mom, what is project A.S.H?" Amelia questioned.

"*Sigh* Project A.S.H is......... you Amelia. Your father wanted to turn you into a superhuman or better yet the first super soldier known to man," Sonya informed gazing at the file in her daughter's hands with sad and angry eyes. "He was the cause of your severe illness, Leland ignored the warnings from the scientist that "cured" you," Sonya told before continuing, "When injected the untested substance into your bloodstream, you were rejecting it and because of that it began to eat away your blood cells. The scientist heard what happened and began on making a cure for you, I learned this years after I knocked him and your father unconscious trying to protect you."

"What happened to the scientist that technically saved my life?" Amelia questioned looking at her mother in the eyes.

"Well he took a blood sample from and started off from there and he was determined to save a child's life after everything he warned your father about the untested qualities," Sonya answered, "Once he injected the cure into you, that was when I came home and saw everything. I was furious at your father for experimenting on four year old child and when I escaped with you I made sure that they wouldn't find you. I faked your death and you were an adopted four year old girl the next month because of the grief that I couldn't save you."

Amelia was speechless at the truth, "But they found you how?" she asked.

"I have been tracking their movements for sometime in case they saw past our ruse. It turns out Silas, wants to make weapons for the new world order and if he saw the Autobots, he will stop at nothing to get what he wants," Sonya answered warning her daughter what her father will do to get what he wants.

"Two weeks ago I was with Agent Fowler and the Autobots to transfer a nuclear power that MECH wanted to make their weapons out of but the Decepticons revealed themselves to Silas," Amelia informed, "Since you have gone missing, I fought a slender man Decepticon, tortured by a heel wearing Decepticon name Starscream he didn't like my refusal of telling where the Autobot base was along with being squeezed to death by a shapeshifting con who was dressed like Bulkhead's best friend plus Starscream and Soundwave wanted me but I do not know who Soundwave is."

Sonya raised her brow at the slender man part before realizing who Amelia is talking about, "Th e slender man that's Soundwave, Amelia," she informed, "I see you have had quite the adventure with the Autobots. So how did you met them?"

"Well we first met them when I was babysitting Raf and the next day Optimus Prime wanted to meet me, Raf and Jack from school but Miko witnessed Arcee talking to Jack. When we arrived, we met Optimus, Ratchet who I like to call grumpy bot, Arcee, Bumblebee and Bulkhead," Amelia told.

"What do you think of the bots?" Sonya questioned since she met all of the Autobots including Cliffjumper, "You didn't say Cliffjumper, where is he?"

"He didn't make it mom, I'm sorry," Amelia informed seeing that her mother was sad she quickly changed the subject, "I like the Autobots but Arcee kind of reminds of you sometimes. When I feel sad I act like nothings bothering me so that I can be near Arcee. I almost called her mom when she was fretting over me when I got sick along with the others."

"Yeah she reminds me of my younger days," Sonya chuckled before becoming serious, "Amelia, I need you to listen to me carefully. I sold the house and bought a new one for both you and Lucy. And you don't need to pay rent or anything I have taken care of it with the help of Miss Hana. The house has all of the furniture, groceries and your things along with a few of mine."

"Will I ever see you again?" Amelia asked as she hugs her mother goodbye.

"Yes, after I make sure MECH would not pose a threat to anyone including Cybertronian," Sonya reassured her daughter, "And don't give up on hope. Megatron is a ruthless dictator but his soldiers suffer from his wrath and I know you can change their sparks."

"I promise I will do everything in my power to help the Autobots win the war and show the Decepticons a path that I hope they'll follow," Amelia promised as she watch her mother leave. 'Thank you mom,' Amelia thought as she drove back to base but first she stopping at one more place before she returned to the Autobots, entering a hair salon, 'Time for a new look.'
