"Agent Fowler, good morning." Optimus greeted.
"Hello," I said with a small wave. Dempsey sat next to me in Optimus' palm and his tail wagged happily. "I don't have a death wish, things just like to try and kill me."
"So I've heard. What's this about Denice and Brad being Decepticons?" Agent Fowler asked.
"Oh, yeah. So apparently their actual names are Shatter and Dropkick. Denice being Shatter and Brad being Dropkick. When Optimus left yesterday, we all got into a physical altercation and I ended up...incapacitated. Shatter then said 'maybe we should actually give her to Lord Megatron this time'. I commed Optimus and when he came back to the house, they ran." I explained. Optimus set me and Dempsey down on the platform and I leaned back against the railing.
"So the cons know about you. What's the next move Prime?" Agent Fowler asked.
"To keep her safe and to ensure they cannot get custody. Y/n has evidence of physical abuse to present as well." Optimus said and motioned for me to show my wounds. I lifted my shirt to show the stab wound and marveled at the dark pink scar that was in its place.
"Huh, that healed really fast." I quipped.
"When did you get that?" Agent Fowler asked.
"Yesterday," I said simply and his jaw dropped.
"How?!" He shouted.
"Accelerated healing my dude. I also had a black eye and a split lip yesterday. This giant scar here is from them too." I said, tracing the long, jagged line across my abdomen.
"Jesus, kid. I'll have Dr. Waters come and examine you for a court detail if that's alright." Agent Fowler said. I nodded and he looked up to Optimus. "She good here?"
(Just a quick thing. Dr. Waters is who I replaced Nurse Darby within the first few chapters. I totally forgot that she didn't come in until later so I fixed it, hope that answers any questions.)
"Yes, she is always welcome here," Optimus said.
"Good, I will take my leave then." Agent Fowler said, leaving with a wave.
"So, about the plan. When are we going to do it?" I asked.
"As soon as possible. The sooner you're fake death happens, the sooner we won't have to worry about Shatter and Dropkick." Optimus said. As I was about to say something else, footsteps came from down the hallway. Out came Dad, rubbing his eyes.
"Hi, Dad," I said cheerfully.
"Hello." He grumbled tiredly. "What did Agent Fowler want?"
"To know about Dropkick and Shatter. He also said that Dr. Waters is going to come here to examine me for a court detail." I explained.
"Will he be able to beat them in court?" Dad asked.
"Whether he does or not, it won't matter," I said off-handedly.
"What's that mean?" He asked.
"Y/n and I have come up with a plan," Optimus said.
"I'm going to fake my death," I said excitedly, readying my dramatic introduction. "My new identity will be 'Zodiac, the silent minicon'. That's a new bit, I figured I probably shouldn't talk to some people because they might recognize my voice."
"Ok, and who do you plan to keep this a secret from?" Dad asked, crossing his arms in curiosity.
"Everyone but the other bots, Jack, Miko, and Raf. It's better if it stays close-knit." I explained.
