Predacon Outcast

Chapter 45.

Grimlock came into thee room, looking a little bit banged up but otherwise fine. He took a seat along the wall in between Slug and Snarl, panting.

"Are you okay Grimmie?" I ask.

"I'm fine...just tired..." He says.

I pulled away from Elita and approached him just as Xeno came in. I climbed up Grims arm and onto his shoulder, Queen Xeno smiled at us and looked to Elita.

"Maybe we should give them some alone time, they've had hell of a day." She said.

Mama nods and leaves the room with her. I look at Grimlock with droopy ears and a sad look on my face. Shockwave changed my friends, a LOT. It's so weird to see them with different looks and colors, and the purple cyclops was going to do the same thing to me if it weren't for the failsafes. Grim looked at me with a head tilt.

"What's wrong, bunny bot?" He asks.

"You all look so different now, all but me. I wish you all had the same failsafes I do so Shockwave couldn't alter you..."

"What??" He asks.

"She's basically saying that Shockwave couldn't change her because of some weird failsafes she has. Not only that, she went on a total kill spree." Swoop says.

Grimlock only blinked as he looked at me, I nod.

"It's true. My optics and other lights turned red and I killed a lot of connies. Elita worries that it's bad."

"Maybe it is, maybe it isn't."

I yawned. I'm really tired after that whole thing. Climbing off his shoulder, I crawled up onto his chest and leaned against his chest with a purr. Grimlock looked down at me and covered his big hand over me, I purred loudly and closed my eyes.

"Sleep well, Little bunny."

And I did.

I don't know how long I slept, but I felt much better when I woke up. Opening my optics, I saw we were still in Xeno's ship, and the other teammates were asleep. I was now laying in Grimlocks arms, who was asleep as well. I sat up with a stretch and yawn, my tail flicking Grim in the chest. The large bot shifted in place as his new visor lit up, looking down at me. My ears droop and I nervously giggle.

"Oops, I didn't mean to wake you." I whisper.

"We need to get up anyways."

Grimlock slammed a fist against the wall, making a clang so loud that it startled the other teammates awake. It even startled me and I was already awake. Grim stood up and sat me on his shoulder, the others starting to get up as well. He started headed towards the door, stopping and turning around to look at the others. I rubbed my optics to try and wake up a little more despite being startled by the clang.

"Let's go, we must be back at the city." Grim said.

"We're coming, Grimlock." Snarl says with a slight yawn.

Once everyone was awake-ish, we left the room and headed to the exit. Once we walked out, we saw that we have indeed arrived at Autobot City.  We could see Autobots running towards the Ark and boarding it too. Oh...We're leaving. Right. I almost forgot about that. I still wish we wouldn't have to, but thanks to Megatron we have to. It hurts me to leave home AGAIN, and the first time it wasn't by choice.

"Hey Grim..? I'm uh, gonna go find Optimus." I say.

"Alright. We must gather our things before we board, don't take too long." He said.
