Stinger

Chapter 2

My heart was pounding, my ears refused to hear, and my mouth refused to speak on the jet just like any other mission, but this time it felt twenty times more unbearable. I kept on seeing Will on the floor dead already, that I was too late and that he'd never see his baby girl. I wouldn't be able to live with myself. "Ready to jump Mackenzie?" Darel, the advisor of the mission said. My mouth was still refusing to speak so I gave a slight nod. He helped me into the parachute, making me even more nervous each second. "All ready Mackenzie." Darel said walking back to his post, I tested my earpiece receiving a respond of all clear and jumped. Even in the most terrifying situations nothing seemed to match the thrill of going out on the field, and fighting for the country I grew up in.

Hearing cries of innocent people interupted my thoughts, I quickly pulled my parachute swiftly landing on the sand. I followed the aircraft and gasped at what I was seeing, a robotic scorpion like machine was attacking I quickly found cover. My eyes stopped blurring and I saw Will, still alive and breathing. I snuck over to him, fighting the want of hugging him right now. "What's the situation?" I said slightly surprising him, he turned back at me and gave a eternally grateful smile. "This thing, whatever it is, followed us from the attack back at the base started to attack us and just won't die." He said giving a shot at the scorpion.

I nodded and pulled out my bow and arrow that was attached to my shoulder. I got one of my poisoned arrows and shot the creature, and it flinched. "Mackenzie let me borrow that earpiece!" Will said and I gave him the earpiece, still firing arrows. The creature finally discovering the source of the arrows looked in my direction and dove into the ground. I looked around for a minute trying to decide if we just won or not. The creature shot up from the ground in front of me and I gasped in shock, carefully grabbing another arrow, this one being explosive. I quickly shot it and started to run pulling the other soldiers with me onto the ground. My arrow started beeping and the creature burned up, still alive it dug into the ground but lost it's tail. I finally breathed again and was covered in hugs and thank you's. "Good job soldier." Epps said and I gave a small smile, me and Epps didn't get along and I was waiting for him to finish his sentence. "For a rookie of course." He said and I jumped on his back taking him to the ground. "Hows that for a rookie Epps?" I said brushing sand off my uniform.

"Good job kid." Will said giving me back my earpiece, I smiled at the man who was like another father to me. The aircraft landed, and a jet came for me. I needed to get home quicker, because my family would get extremly worried. The army knew this and wanted to hire me part time, for my amazing bow skills. I got in it saying quick goodbyes and got changed in the jet into my normal clothes stashing my uniform in my bag. I put my blonde hair into ponytail and rested my head on the seat.

---------------------------------

I got home and went into Sam's room to see how's he's doing with the whole car thing, I tip-toed to his door to scare him I quietly opened the door and gasped. A giant robot with a blue base and red flames was at Sam's window. "Sam?!?!" I said and he turned around looking panicked. "Oh-uh you-you know what Optimus Mackenzie's really good at keeping secrets, so we don't need to worry about her." "Worry about me?! He's a giant robot Sam! Mom and Dad'll freak out if they see him!" "Um correction, them." Sam said and I looked out the window to see 4 robots and Dad's new path broken. "Sam. Dad. Is. Going. To. BURY YOU ALIVE!" I said going into panic. Suddenly the robot called 'Optimus' raised Makayla into Sam's room, and I growled. "They really need those glasses." She said after glaring at me. Makayla and I were supposed to be best friends, until she started to date jerks and I hated them each time. We had a fight and I called her 'a fugly whore who dates jerks' and she called me a 'loner with no sense of personality.' Pretty nasty I know, I got over her insult I don't understand why she couldn't get over mine. She was the one who taught me about cars, and I wish we could make up and be friends again.

"Sam does she mean Grandfather's glasses?" I asked and he nodded. I started to help him look, and a robot that was silver shined a light in Sam's room, a bright light. I heard footsteps and started to panic. "Sam Mom and Dad are coming!" I said and Makayla hid behind a stack of Sam's junk and I sat on his bed pretending to be reading a magazine. "Sam what on Earth is all of the racket!" Mom said and I pretended not to listen. He stalled for a little bit and I started to lose interest, but it was regained when my mother said "were you masterbating?" She said and I vomitted in my mouth. "MOM!" I said covering my ears. "What well we don't have to call it that, you can call it Sam's Happy Time or-" "Mom stop before I shoot myself!"  I said and she quieted. Sudden;y the power went out and the ground began to shake. "EARTHQUAKE!" Dad said and went into Sam's bathtub. I laughed a little and Dad got out. "Oh no honey, the whole lawn was ruined!" Dad said and I felt guilty, Dad worked really hard on that path. "Ok Sam we're gonna ask you one more time, what was that light and what was the noise?" Mom asked, and they broke out into an argument.  Makayla stood up and I face-palmed. "Oh, a girl. Sam did you bring a girl home?" Sam nodded and I rolled my eyes. 

"Oh well I'm sorry you had to hear that conversation, so so sorry." Mom said and before they left the room Sam asked "hey Mom where's my backpack?" "Downstairs Sam." Sam ran downstairs, and Makayla and I followed. He pulled the glasses out of his bag and inspected them. I heard the familar sound of police cars outside. My eyes widened, and I looked at Sam. Men in agent suits came, and I reconized them from sector seven. "Look at them there pulling out my flowers!" Mom said and I shivered. I picked a daisy from there once, got grounded for a month. Agent Simmons and another agent came in and introduced themselves from sector seven. "Well ladies and gentlemen, we're looking for Sam Witwicky and Mackenzie Witwicky the owners of the car outside." I swallowed, hoping that he wouldn't blow my cover that I was in the army. "Yeah that's my kids and guess what buddy your not taking them." Dad said crossing his arms. "Your children have been reported for alien actividy, so we will need to take a look around sir."  Dad shook his head firmly, "you will not tear up my house." The agent next to Agent Simmons moved forward and said "perhaps we need some physical evidence." 

Simmons grabbed a device and told us to move forward, but Dad intervined and he moved forward instead using the device on us and it started to beep like crazy. "Bingo!" He said and soon we were loded into a car, even MoJo. "Ok kids, lets get strait down to buisness. Last night Sam you said that your car was alive." He said and Sam swallowed hardly. "No-no you heard me wrong I said that-that my car had been stolen but its-its back now." Makayla suddenly thought of something. "Not by itself obviously." She said and they started rambling. "Oh relax Sam he's just mad because after this he'll have to go back to be a mall sercurity guard." Makayla said and I covered my laugh. "I'd keep your trap shut young lady, espically with your father's trial going on." Simmons said and I got angered. "W-What is he talking about?" 

"You know those cars my Dad used to teach me how to fix, well they weren't always his." "Y-You stole cars?" Simmons interuppted and said "yep and she's even got her own juvy record to prove it." I felt anger rage through me. "I think that that's supposed to be her opition to tell somebody about Simmons, breaking the law are we?" I said and he looked at me. "I don't think I remeber giving you permission to speak soldier." Sam looked at me and I glared at Simmons, he just gave up my biggest secret.
