Predacon Outcast

Chapter 2.

*    *    *    *

I kept pushing the buttons to turn the security system off, and I think I did it right as I heard a weird humming noise turn off. Yay! I did it! I turned around and flew out of Nex's lab, headed to my old room where I hope all my toys are. I made it to my old room, which was far away from the monster. The door opened for me and I flew in, seeing all my toys sitting on my bed.

I flew to my bed and landed on it, hugging all of my plushies tightly. I don't know how long it's been since I've played with these and I missed them all so much. I need to take my toys with me, all of them! Nex might destroy these! I tried to pick them all up, but I always dropped them. Phooey! I guess I can only take a few of my toys then...Well, I must choose good. I took my 5 favorite plushies and put them my blanket,  picking it up like a sack. I need to go before Papa finds me out of my cell...

I spread my wings and flew out of my room to the exit, I'm gonna get outta here and be free! Just like the vicious Predacon I am! I'm gonna live in the wild with other Predacons like me, and never have to see the evil connies or bots Papa talked about when he was still good. These ideas make my spark fill with happiness, I'm finally going to be free! Through the many twists and turns of hallways, I made it to the exit! But I felt the happiness disappear when I saw the door was still closed.

"Wh-Wha..? B-But I turned off security, didn't I..?" I ask myself.

Suddenly I heard the alarms start going off, the halls flashing from the bright red lights. Oh no! If I didn't turn off security, what DID I do?! I heard Nex yell in surprise and fall out of bed, even though he was so far away. Oh no, he's awake! I need to get out these doors! I dropped my blanket full of toys and started scratching at the door as hard as I could, making large claw marks. I need to leave, my papa told me to. Not the monster. I heard Nex run towards his laboratory.

"Warning. Warning. Unknown life signals approaching location."

"SpringLOCK!!" Nex yelled.

My ears drooped and optics widen. Oh no!!! I started scratching harder and harder, even starting to punch and kick the door. The door was denting with every hit I did. Huh, I don't remember being this strong, or my blue lights turning yellow. I could hear footsteps approaching from down the hallway, I was getting even more scared and punched harder. The door was about to come off, a few more hits should do it!

With one final kick, the door went flying outside into a rust storm. I grabbed my blanket of toys just as I saw Nex at the end of the hall, I gasped loudly. I could see the anger in his optics, no, the rage in his optics. He was mad at me, I had done badly. The monster came marching for me, I looked in between him and the outside. I had to either stay put and be thrown back into a cell, or run and take a chance at freedom. Cell, freedom, cell, freedom. I had made my choice.

I ran out as quickly as I could into the rust storm, not looking back. Nex roared in anger behind me as I just kept running. I was free...FREE! I did it! Even though I couldn't see a darn thing as the storm was hard to see through, and the wind filled my hearing. All I had to hope for was something louder than the wind or looking for the dark blobs of tall buildings. I ran through the rusty streets of Tetravore City, running towards my freedom.

Flying wouldn't work, the wind is really strong and would...blow me away! That's it! I can get out of the city faster that way! As I was about to spread my wings, I heard a strange machine  noise behind me. I stopped running and turned to look at the noise, seeing 2 purple lights along with hearing the sound get closer. Squinting my eyes, I saw a vehicle with familiar grey and purple colors coming at me.

"PREDACON!!" It roared, it was Nex!!

I screamed in terror and spread my wings in a panic, the wind hit my wings and I was suddenly high up in the air. I screamed once again as I started doing flips and rolls, clinging onto my blanket of toys. Nex roared in anger once again as I was being blown further and further away, his yells becoming quieter and quieter.
