The Oncoming Storm

Chapter Two

        Once Sam had signed the papers for his 'new car' he drove it home to get ready for a party down by the beach. Sky, on the other hand, said she was going home. In reality, she was just driving around to kill time before heading back, as well as changing her holoform clothes to somethings more suitable for what Sam had planned to go to later. She was still wearing her leather coat, but she now wore sneakers, jean shorts and a graphic t-shirt.

        Not long after, she decided to contact Bumblebee, to see why he was even on earth.

        ::Bee?:: (Stormstrike)

        ::Yes Striker?:: (Bumblebee)

        The young mech answered almost immediately.

        ::Why are you even on Earth?:: (Stormstrike)

        ::Same reason you came here years ago. The allspark.:: (Bumblebee)

        That confused Stormstrike a little. Yes, her and her Team had come to locate and retrieve the cube. But not long after crashing, all readings on it disappeared.

        ::Hate to disappoint you, but the cubes pretty much disappeared.:: (Stormstrike)

        She informed the scout. As she informed him of this, she turned down a street to come to the Witwicky's house.

        ::That's where you're wrong.:: (Bumblebee)

        Sighing, she rolled her eyes at the vagueness in his voice.

        ::You'll have to tell me later.:: (Stormstrike)

        Getting out of her alt mode, she walked past Bee's own alt mode and patted the hood gently. As she did, she smiled a little.

        "Sky!" An overly happy voice called out. A woman with curly red hair smiled at the young girl, who grinned in return.

        "Mrs. Witwicky!" Sky gave the woman a quick hug, not stepping off the path Ron was making, knowing he was overly protective of his grass. And no, she had no clue as to why. She doubted even Primus knew. 

        "I told you, call me Judy." Sam's mom insisted, pulling away. When she got a look at what the girl was wearing, she grinned. "God, you look beautiful." Sky smiled and started to walk into the house, shouting over her shoulder as she did.

        "Thanks Judy." Taking her leather coat off, and slinging it over her shoulder, she ran up the stairs and to Sam's room. When she did, she saw him checking his E-Bay account.

        "Zero bids." He groaned, hanging his head. "Great. Broke."

        "That surprises you why?" She questioned, flopping down on his bed. When she did, Sam's chihuahua, Mojo, hobbled over to her. He had a case on his front left leg, making it awkward to move. Despite that, he had a slight adoration for the 'girl'. "Sorry Sam, but I'd doubt anyone would want your Grandfather's old crap."

        "You, shut up." He pointed a not so threatening finger at her before turning to his dog. "Come on, Mojo. You want your pain pills?" The dog squirmed in his spot beside Sky, and she couldn't help but chuckle. Carefully, she picked him up and set him on the ground. Mean while, Sam was checking his appearance, much like a femme in Skylar's opinion.

        "No. Premature." He said checking, a couple of hairs growing on his chin, before say pick up lines to his reflection. "Good. What's up? Nothing. You know, just driving my car. Driving my car. Driving my car." As he continuously did this, Sky rolled her eyes. She would never understand the mating rituals of humans, let alone the worry it caused. Then again, in the time she's been around, it was highly unlikely a bot would find their Sparkmate, and even more unlikely either one would survive the war. When Sam started to check his breath, she groaned.
