After having Lord Megatron give his approval of her name, said girl blushed and then started a soft purring noise. She was surprised when she heard the purring sound come right back from the giant metal robot. Megatron started to pet the top of her head again as he busied himself with reading over something. I, being just a small girl, had no idea how to be of some sort of use to the giant robot that sat next to me. He seemed to just like petting my head so I just sat and let him, it wasn't a problem to me, I quite enjoyed the almost foreign use of gentle contact. The feeling of happiness and warmth seemed to be lost with me, as I was always used to the rough man handling, funny enough this giant metal alien seemed to be able to help me know the feeling once again.

He started to move a bit in his seat, I looked at him and realized he was staring at me, his mouth moving. I shook my head realizing I must have been so dazed out I hadn't realized he said anything to me. "Pet?" Was the first thing I heard before he picked me up gently and placed me in his hand, we were face to face, him slightly glaring and me staring back with wide fearful eyes.

"Im s-sorry! C-could you repeat that?" I stuttered out and his eyes softened a bit before he adopted a more serious expression. "I asked you, what you are? Im not coming off as rude but you seem human and part animal at the same time. Its intriguing." He said with a velvety voice and a gentle smile as he stroked the top of my head once more.

I stared at him a bit before my ears twitched in recognition to the touch and I spluttered out a response. "Im a neko, Im s-sorry." I blushed and looked down as he just chuckled out a response. "Its ok, my dear Lillian. I was just curious, nothing to be sorry for." He purred, I went to respond to that and I heard a noise from behind me. Giant stomps and the next thing I know im covered by both of Megatrons hands and hes telling me to 'Shh'. I grunt in response to that and try to ply the large black fingers open to see who or what it was that created those footsteps.

"LORD MEGATRON! IM GOING TO KILL THIS CLUMSY OAF!" I heard a shrill, loud voice shreek. I flinched inside Megatron's hands as I heard him sigh.

"What is it now, Starscream?..."

"Your most loyal servant shot my wing! Hes a trader!" The shrill voice yelled and I heard a bang on the ground. Wow this bot has attitude...I heard megatron give a frustrated sigh before giving off a rumbling growl, the air around seemed to get thick with tension. "Starscream, I will deal with Lugnut later. Now leave before I tear off the other precious wing, I have no time to listen to your whining."

I heard a whole bunch of grumbles and curses after that being said, the black hand covering my view suddenly lifted up so I could see. I looked up at the big robots red eyes, they seemed clouded before they hardened and he stared down at me, the red eyes softened again. "A-are you ok?" I said gently with a small smile. The sneer on his face quickly turned into a small smile as he resumed gently petting a finger down my head and back. I stretched into the contact and purred before blushing a bright red. I heard a chuckle and I felt my face get redder by the second.

"Red is a lovely color on you..." Megatron purred thoughtfully. My eyes grew wide before I looked down and twiddled my thumbs. "I suppose if im going to keep you...I need the right stuff acquired for a human." He said and that made my heart beat faster. He was planning on keeping me?

"Y-you wanna keep m-me?" I whispered and the giant Decepticon leader looked down, raising an optic ridge and nodding his head slowly. "Would you prefer me not, My dear pet. I don't just randomly pick out humans and keep them. But then again your not entirely human..."

"N-no! No! Im ok with you keeping me I was just surprised...No one has ever wanted me." I said and looked down on the last part. It was true. After being kicked out and disowned by my parents I ran off. My friends thought I was a freak so I dropped out of school and nobody would help. After living on the streets a year or so the mean "people" came and took me away. I was scared and helpless. They poked needles and kept me tied and chained to a bed. Always rough handling me... it scared me. I always felt alone and by myself, in a dark cell, so cold and I always thought I heard whispers.

"Pet?..." I heard the velvety voice ask, officially kicking me out of my thoughts. "Your leaking?...Whats wrong?" I then suddenly felt the tears fall down my face and I quickly brought my hands up and wiped at my eyes.

"Nothings the matter..." I replied softly as I just stared down at my hands. Maybe he'll just forget about it and move on I thought to myself. I suddenly felt a giant metal finger tilt my chin up so I was looking at his face. Ruby red staring into Crystal blue eyes.

"Do not...Lie to me. Please tell me." he said in a much gentler tone, the corner of his mouth plates lifting up a little bit. I stared at his face transfixed with the color of his eyes and the realization of feeling safe with a giant robot that could stomp on her in a matter of mere seconds. Yet this alien wants help me and my problems, I blushed as my heart picked up and I put my hands over my chest gulping audibly.

"S-seriously nothing i-is the matter..." I whispered. His optics hardened and the once ghost of a smile faded. My eyes widened as I took a look at the change in expression and my mouth suddenly felt dry. I licked my lips and twiddled my thumbs in nervousness, my once pale cheeks turning as bright as a tomato as I scooted back a bit in his hand but he cupped his fingers up, then used his middle finger to slowly slide me forward. His face seemed to scrunch up a bit before he relaxed it and his eyes softened but seem glazed over with hidden emotion.

"Are...you afraid, Lillian?" he spoke in quiet but calm tone. I trembled pulling my arms up and crossing them over my chest and staring down at Megatrons chest. I stared back up after a long while of silence and licked my lips, uncrossing my left arm and placing my hand down to put it lightly on his palm. I tapped my fingers shakily against his palm and rubbed my other hand up an down my arm, an act of self conscious. I slowly tilted my head up and looked back into those glazed ruby red robot eyes.

This very being right here can kill me if he wanted to, yet he keeps me around. He comforted me in my lostness of that forrest, he's bringing a feeling back in my body that I never thought I would feel before. As I looked up at the giant robot I felt a warmth grow in my chest, my heart skipping a beat. "To be honest, y-yes. But not of y-you. Of t-the fact that I-I could have b-been... K-killed... b-but I made it out a-alive. And a GIANT r-robot is helping m-me of all people." I spoke with so much emotion it caused tears to run down my cheeks. This very being was something, No, someone I hoped that would stay around for a long time. Watching his face change emotions so quickly then a small smile formed on his face and I knew I wanted him to stay. I was sure of it.
