out of control | transformers [original]

i. chapter one

It was around eight in the morning when she got the call.

Emerson peeled her eyes open and glared at the ceiling, taking in a deep breath. Debating whether or not to just let it ring, she limply hung her hand over her phone and lifted it to her face. The caller ID? Milk.

Immediately she shot up, Mikayla never called her. Actually, she rarely ever got a call that wasn't spam. Running a hand through her hair- catching it in a knot in the first millisecond, she drew her hand away and answered the call.

"Hel-"

"Transformers is gone."

The girl blinked owlishly, the words taking a second to process. "Well good morning to you too, how am I? I'm doing pretty good at eight in the morning on a Saturday. Thanks for asking, really you're so sweet."

She heard a frustrated sigh from the other end of the phone, "Em, please be serious for a second. An entire fandom just disappeared."

"You understand that I just woke up correct? For the next twenty-four hours I will be unable to remain cool and collected."

Emerson flopped back on her bed, putting the girl on speaker and flipping a new google tab open. Typing in familiar keywords, she pursed her lips.

"Look, I'm sure it's nothing." the blonde murmured, "Maybe you're just freaking out over nothing."

"Well, 'nothing' seems to have completely erased not only my fanfiction, but autobots, decepticons, and Shia LeBouf from this universe." she hissed into the microphone. And, at last, when Emmersyn had typed in yet another keyword, she came up with no results.

Nothing came up for transformers, autobot, cybertronian, NEST.. nothing. She bit her lip.. there was one more thing she could try.

Typing in the words, 'Tranquility, California'- which should, in theory, not exist. But when results came up for the city that was less than two hours away from her, she inhaled sharply. Trying again with the words 'Mission City', she was able to find it as a place in the middle of nowhere, around an hour and a half away from Hoover Dam.

"Okay so you might be right." she laughed nervously, "Apparently Tranquility and Mission City exist."

"I knew it!" her companion shouted on the other end of the phone, scaring the shit out of Emerson, who dropped her phone onto her face in surprise. A small groan left her lips as she rubbed her forehead.

The brunette either didn't hear or didn't seem to care about her friend's state as she began to laugh maniacally.

She rolled her eyes as she typed in one more thing, hoping that it existed and she wasn't going crazy. So when the link popped up under the search 'ladiesman glasses ebay', she grinned widely.

"I'm totally buying the glasses."

There was a small pause. "Em. That is a very dangerous thing that you're doing there."

She grinned, placing a bet on the item. "This is so worth twenty dollars."

"I can feel the danger radiating from here."

Emerson grinned, then noting that Milk couldn't see her from where she was, an entire state away.

"Listen," she started tactically, knowing that her friend would agree to anything she said no matter what, but trying to make it sound safer than it probably was, "I buy the glasses, they're forced to come here. I persuade them to let me go with them because I know what's up. I'm only two hours away from Tranquility, soo. Anyways, you live like a half hour from Hoover Dam, right? We'll pick you up on the way. Easy peasy."

There was a sigh. "Em, I don't know whether to hug you or punch you in the face."

She cringed, "I'd prefer the hug, actually."

Emerson could practically see the brunette rolling her eyes from across the call, "How do you even know it isn't too late and they're already at the dam?"

At that exact moment, there was a notification that turned her attention to the screen.

A grin appeared on her features. "Because Sam's already accepted the bid."
