9 year old Lordes Aubree was always known for killing people with her kindness. Not literally, but their hearts would melt just looking at her. Optimus Prime, at first, thought differently. He thought that all the humans were the same. That they fea...
Optimus went to go after the little girl who held the bullets mid air. But what stopped him from going any farther, the young girl turned to look at him and he saw her eyes glowing. You could see tears streaming down her face.
"Go.." Was all she whispered before bullets were sent flying back at the soldiers. Most of them went down but others continued to fire.
"GO!" She shouted. Lordes blocked the bullets while Optimus and Cade took the others and ran out.
"So.." Lordes said with a smirk as she faced the remaining soldiers. "Who wants to dance?"

"This is ridiculous! She should have been out by now." Raquel Dotts said as she stared out the window of Optimus' alt. "I need to go back. I can't leave her."
Out of nowhere, something exploded from the Walmart. Raquel and Cade stared out the window and didn't see anything until something slammed into the ground in front of them.
She was tall and glowing. When the glow died down, a young teen was standing in front of them, smirking.

"What? I got something on my face?" She joked as she opened the driver side door. The moment she hopped in, she looked back at Raquel and Cade and furrowed her eyebrows.
"Are you just gonna stare at me or are we gonna head to Chicago?" She commented playfully as Optimus started his engine and took off; the Autobots following close behind him.
"Lordes?" Cade asked in surprise as she nodded.
"The one and only. I don't know what happened to me back there. But holy cheese! This is awesome!" Lordes exclaimed as she bounced in her seat.
"So, you're what? A teenage superhero or something?" Raquel asked as Lordes shrugged. "Probably. I feel old."
"Sweetheart, you'll know the meaning of old when you get my age." Cade joked as the three of us laughed. Lordes then took her attention to Optimus who hasn't spoken yet.
"You okay, Prime?"
"Yes, I am. It's just..I never knew you had abilities." Optimus said in shock as Lordes nodded. "I didn't know either. It just happened."
"Boss, it's getting late. We need to find some place to recharge." Hound spoke over the radio as Lordes looked around outside. "There! That building right there!"
Optimus swerved into the parking lot of an old abandoned building where they settled for the night.

"Do you know what your powers are yet?" Cade asked as he passed Lordes a can of Ravioli. "Thanks. No, not yet."
"We could help." Tessa assured as she came and sat next to her. "Thanks, Tess. Why don't we start tomorrow? I'm a little tired." Tessa nodded before she grabbed a blanket and handed it to Lordes.
"Go ahead and get some rest. You'll need it tomorrow." Tessa said with a smile before getting up and leaving.
"You know, Lordes.." Cade began as he sat down next to her. "Tessa has never been fond of people. But ever since she's met you, she's changed. Like you clicked on a lightbulb in her head. I just appreciate what you do for everyone. You are the most bravest kid I've ever known."
"Thanks, Cade. Now, why don't you get some rest?" Lordes suggested as Cade nodded and kissed Lordes on the forehead. Lordes watched Cade get up and walk away towards Tessa and Shane and she began to realize that Cade was alot like her father. He would always tell her how she was the bravest kid ever, how he's never known anyone to be so kind and courageous. And just thinking back to it made tears begin to flow from her eyes.

"I'll get him, Mom. Dad. I'll get the guy responsible for this. You can best believe that." She muttered to herself before she lied herself to sleep. Not knowing what she's about dream of.
