Sunstreaker's vengeance ✔️ (book 1)

10. Starscream

As I woke up, the sun was shining brightly and landed on my face. It took me a moment for me to realize I was in Sunstreaker's alt-mode, parked somewhere on a parking lot close to a small town. His hood was covered with thick snow, just as a part of his windshield. I moved up, taking note of how cold his seat and door was when I touched it. "You stopped..." I replied, looking around. "Not because of you!" he snarled. I raised my hands and I watched his holoform fizzle in next to me. "Are you okay?" I forced myself to ask since he hadn't been nice to me and almost got me killed twice. "I am fine!" he growled, gritting his teeth and for a moment he glared at me.

"I know... that I am probably a bother to you... but I am very hungry and thirsty... can I go into town?" I asked. Sunstreaker raised his brown and shot me a glare. His icy blue eyes darkened a little. "So you can run off!" he snarled. I shook my head "no... to get some other clothes, food, and water..." I said. "You're not going alone! I don't trust you!" he snarled before hopping out. He collapsed the moment he stepped out of his alt-mode and ended face first in the snow. I pressed my lips together so I wouldn't laugh but it was very funny to see.

"Laugh and I am going to cut off your hand!" he hissed as he hoists himself up. "I am not laughing..." I said, flashing him a smile. He narrowed his eyes at me, glaring. "Hey... I am not doing anything wrong," I objected, crossing my arms. "I should have let you die last day," he growled as he made his way through the snow. "Are you coming or what!" he hissed, glaring at me as he turned around. "Yeah yeah... I am not that fast with my injuries," I muttered. The sidewalk was better but very slippery. I tightly grabbed Sunstreaker's arm as I almost slipped. He glared at me and pushed me away from him. "What did I say about touching me!" he snapped.

"Sorry... it's just very slippery," I complained. "I don't care about that!" He hissed, walking further. Sunstreaker slipped his hands in the pocket of his jeans, having that grumpy expression on his face. I sighed softly and followed him. "Sideswipe didn't lie about the attitude of his brother, he's moody and has these horrible mood swings.

Sunstreaker halted and opened the door of a small cozy lunchroom. "come on!" he grunted. People gave me a strange look as they saw me. I pointed my eyes on the floor so I didn't have to face them. "Sit down!" Sunstreaker grunted before he sat down himself. for a moment we just stared at each other. I noticed, now I was looking at him, his lips were a little bit blue like he was cold. "So..." I started off. "You decided to pull over?"
"Horrible weather of this damn planet," he scowled, glaring at me like it was my fault. "That's the problem with the mountains," I replied. He huffed and rolled his eyes and looked outside, watching some humans pass. "How pathetic," he scowled, gritting his teeth. "Why do you hate us?" I asked. " Not any of your damn business," he snarled, his eyes drilled straight through my soul.

I nodded and looked at the waitress that showed up at our table. "Can I take your order?" she asked. "give me some beer..." Sunstreaker grunted. "Doesn't matter which," he added as she opened her mouth to say something. "orange juice..." I said. "Alright," she said, walking away. Sunstreaker was staring at me, but with that psychotic look on his face, making me uncomfortable, scared even. "Can I ask you something?"
"No," He hissed, glaring at me. I nodded, sighing softly, and grabbed the menu card. "Why do you keep looking at me?" I said eventually, looking over the card. "Considering if I am gonna kill you or not... and how if I decide to kill you," he said coldly. I hummed "You could have let me die last day..." I trailed off. "So? I can kill you right here and now by throwing this knife," he said, grabbing the sharp object off the table,- pointing at me.

I cleared my throat and sat up straight. "Did you make your choice?" he sulked, pointing with the knife he was holding at the menu card. I nodded and hand it to him. I touched his hand, feeling how cold it was. He shot me a glare and gritted his teeth, for a moment his eyes turned red. Quickly, I looked down an pretended it didn't happen. "Sunstreaker... why are we heading through the mountains?" I asked, meeting his icy blue orbs. "Because I say so! You're not the car so you have nothing to say either... unless you wanna walk again!" he snarled. I shook my head and studied him now he wasn't paying attention to me.
