How we met the bots

Chapter sixteen: circ: not to bad

"...Smokescreen's he was taken out for punishment" this scared me how long had these guy's been here and how had they been treated, how long will we be here? These thoughts corrupted my mind until I voiced them "how long have' ya been 'ere, 'n' why or what is punishment" "about 6 earth years" Jetstorm awnsered the first one but stuttered, I guess thinking of punishment so Jetfire continues "punishment is where they brutally attack you until your an inch from offline but then they just send you to the medic" I shuddered at the thought. I realised they have lived like this since I was 10 "I'm sorry" "what for?" They asked in unison "that ya had to live like this" they chuckled softly confusing me slightly on what exactly was funny "it's not your fault" Jetstorm stated I felt bad for them still but didn't get time to voice any more apoligy's when a door creaked open. All went silent when this man as well as two drones walk in dragging along a white mech who had a blue middle with red highlights "I see your awake Skye" the man said his voice with a anger you could tell was natural "wha' ya problem dude, this is wrong" I stated my tone flat and unamused "you and your friends are now part of the freak show if you misbehave you will end up like that" he explained gesturing towards the beat up mech. I shuddered "not cool" I stated shaking my head, I wouldn't make a move to escape till Grace and Shadow were awake and the Bots came to get us to help these three others out, he just hummed then said "you will obey just call me Darkfang" with that him and the drone's walked out. I looked over to Grace's cage hearing groaning "Grace ya up?" "Yeah where are we and who are the others" "in short welcome to the freak show we get beaten for disobeying" she visibly gulped but I continued "that Jetfire, that Jetstorm and that's Smokescreen their Autobot elite guards" "hello" the twins said in unison "hey..." Smokescreen says weakly "hi" Grace continues "ya conscious Smokescreen?" "Yup take... It your Skye?" I nodded then curled up into a ball, set myself on fire for warmth then drifted off to sleep.

Time skip

I woke up hearing chains moving, I felt as if we were descending "wha's going on?" I asked "your first show" Darkfang's voice echoed through the room "I'm no show monkey!" I yelled curling back up "oh yes you will be, you go into a cage and do what the crowd wants, do it or you will be visiting the medic" he threatened his voice hostal which scared me allot. The cage door was unlocked so I climbed out, they put a leash on me and led me through I noticed the same happened to Grace and Shadow which annoyed me more than words could say lucky enough where we were being led to was like a zoo enclosure, things too climb and play with. They shoved all three of us in much to my distaste I could see the twins across from us in something like an avery for birds, I scurried up a tree to avoid people "hey Skye, what are you doing?" Shadow asked tilting her head to the side "I'm people shy" "but your fine with alien robots?" She raises an eyebrow at me and just shook her head. People started flooding in all different size, age and gender 'I guess the show's starting' I thought turning so I was hanging upside down on my brach, people passed the cage looking at us in disgust which was seriously starting to annoy me, the next to pass was a little kid and his mother "mummy why do they keep these humans locked up?" He asked looking up to face his mum "I don't know hunny but its inhumane" they continued to walk on. I eventually made my way to the floor and started to meditate. The day went fast and we were escorted back to our cages "behave!" He demanded as he left the room I sat down and subconsciously started singing 'broken strings by James Morrison' and soon enough everyone joined me starting off a long chain of different songs until we all eventually fell asleep.
