Helping a Heart Become Whole (Beast Wars AU Rampage × Fem!Reader)

New Pet

*Y/n's POV*

Y/n drives down to Ark's Hope the next morning, before they were open. She wanted to get a head start on the day as well as be there before groups of people in case she had another episode....All Y/n knew about the voices in her head was that it was just one that spoke and it was very angry.

Y/n pulls up into the parking lot and sees Tarn pull up in his car. She shuts her car off and quickly gets out, excited to see her friend who helped her get to where she was today. "Hey, Tarn!"

Tarn waves her over and patiently waits for Y/n to run over. "So what brings you here, Y/n?"

"I'm here to get a dog. One that is a retired service dog hopefully," said Y/n.

"I don't know if we have any but I can talk to Estella and see if there is a dog that will be of help," said Tarn. He taps her on her forehead. "Staying out of trouble and not trying to cut that arm of yours?"

"Trying to. It's the only way to make it stay quiet."

"Except last time you cut a muscle cable and couldn't use your hand for a week."

"Can't we just have Tarantulas cut it off?!"

"I don't think he can." Tarn pulls out his set of keys to Ark's Hope. "Now lets head inside. Estella will be here in an hour and I could use your help getting all the animals fed."

"Okay," said Y/n with a smile.

Tarn hands Y/n his keys and watches her run up to the main doors to unlock them. He laughs at her antics. He could tell she was happy by how her heart sounded to him. But he knew she was in constant pain. Just like me way back when...Tarn thinks to himself. Tarn had grown attached to Y/n and to a sense, thought of her as his own daughter, even though he didn't have a sparkling of his own. Tarn kinda adopted her as his own a month after he saved her since her own family abandoned her. Turns out they gave up on her by the fourth month mark of her disappearance.

Tarn walks up the sidewalk and heads inside. He knew which room that Y/n would go to first and soon enough she was walking down the hallway with a large bag of cat food in her arms. "Biscuit is waiting for you, Tarn."

"Well tell Biscuit I am coming." Tarn heads down the hallway to the cat room, after making sure the main doors were closed. He enters the cat room and finds half, if almost all of the cats patiently waiting for their food bowls to be filled. There were now ten cats at Ark's Hope. Less than the week before since then a few had been adopted out.

Y/n finished feeding the cats and cleaning up after them and then heads to the dog's kennel area. After about five minutes, Y/n comes out. "Estella needs to feed Lobo. He seems kinda angry today."

"When is Lobo never angry?" Tarn asks as he helps Y/n put the cleaning supplies away.

"When Estella isn't here. Will anyone ever adopt him?"

"Estella and I are trying to find the right one. He's been here for almost two years."

"That's sad. At least our shelter is a no-kill so that all the animals can find their homes and...."

N̶̘͍̪͓̳̤o̥̺̯̞ ̳̳̣̱͓̠̕H̹o͉̫m̜͈͇̙̺̼̮e!

Y/n winces in pain and immediately goes to find a room to hide in case the voices get the best of her. The voices had very bad timing today.

Tarn sees Y/n go run and hide. "Why now of all times?" He pulls out his phone and gives Estella a call.

"Hey, Tarn. What's up?' Estella asks as she picks up the call on her end.

"You think giving Lobo to Y/n will be a good idea? Y/n just ran into a room to hide."

"Yes I am sure. Lobo will help Y/n in some way. Plus I know we talked about it but giving her any medicine to suppress those voices may not go well with her. Tarantulas is still trying to figure out what purpose Shockwave had with giving Y/n that arm of hers."

"Maybe the same experiment as Sasha. Her process of becoming Cybertronion only had taken more than six months. Maybe Shockwave is trying to see how long he can drag the process out with Y/n." Tarn hears nothing but silence on Estella's end of the call. "Estella?"

"Megatron might have a theory. But it needs to be when Y/n is stable for a short time period. Almost to Ark's Hope. See you soon." Estella hangs up on her end of the call.

It was an hour later before Y/n comes our of hiding again. Tarn and Estella were waiting for her. "Sorry," said Y/n as she comes out of hiding from the room she was in. Her cheeks were stained slightly from tears. She had been crying.

"It's okay, sweetie," said Estella. She had her long hair tied back in a ponytail and since her bond with Megatron, she had scales beneath her eyes, making it look like she was wearing an exotic eye shadow. "I have the paperwork ready for you to sign, Y/n."

"Paperwork? But I didn't pick out the dog I wanted yet."

"We have one for you. I'll go get him," said Estella before she heads into rhe dog kennel room. After about five minutes she comes out with Lobo, the wolf dog hybrid, on a leash. Lobo was pulling Estella beind him. "Easy boy. Ill give you to your owner. Give me a second." Estella walks up to Y/n and hands her Lobo's leash. "He's all yours. I just need you to sign the paperwork and you sre good to go."

"But...."

"We've been looking for someone special to take care of Lobo. He needs a good home and I know he will help you when the voices act up," said Tarn.

Lobo jumps up, putting his front paws on Y/n's shoulders and licks her face, making her laugh.

"Besides he knows he's going to a good home," said Estella.

Y/n signs the paper work. Tarn tells her before she left Ark's Hope, that he'll be stop by her place with pet supplies for her. Y/n dives home with Lobo buckled up in the back seat of her Jeep. She had the window rolled down a bit so he could enjoy the breeze. "Glad you have a home, Lobo?"

Lobo barks at Y/n, tongue hanging out, drool falling on the seat. He was a happy dog and what day can go better what you are finally going home with a new family.
