Chapter 4
Who are you?

Everyone is gazing upon the Decepticon. There's silence.
Well, for a little while. Finally Optimus gives a soft sigh and says "Very well, follow me."
"W-wait! Optimus!" Hot Shot snaps and runs toward Optimus.
"Optimus! You can't be serious letting him, into our base."
"Don't forget Hot Shot, he's been here before." He turns his head toward Starscream then turns back, "and besides, we owe him."
"But he doesn't remember anything, he doesn't know that he actually has a past!" The yellow mech whispers loudly, but not enough to let Starscream hear it.
"And that's why we should tell him." Optimus says quietly, before turning his head to the crowd. "Everybot keep doing what you were doing, I'll take it from here. And Starscream."
"Yes?"
"You're with me, come."
The Decepticon speeds up so he can walk along side Optimus.
Hot Shot snorts and moves back. As they continue walking to the base's front door, Optimus whispers softly to Starscream.
"Do you remember any of this?
"No." Starscream shakes his head silently.

Finally they arrive at the front gate, the doors automatically open up, and they step inside.
"Hey guys! How's th-WAIT! WHAT IS HE DOING HERE?!" Fred yells and steps backward.
Carols, Red and Billy lock their eyes on the tall mech, but cannot say a single word.
"Starscream, can you remember him?" Ask Optimus, pointing to Fred.
Starscream walks toward Fred, but Fred keeps stepping backward. The tall mech bends his knees so he can see the boy better.
For a moment he does not talk, his eyes glued to Fred for a minute and then says "I...I don't know...I think I saw him somewhere...but I don't seem to remember..." He begins to stand up.
He turns his face to Optimus and frowns.
"Do I know him?"
"Yes, actually you knew all of them."
Then someone interrupts "And all of us."
Red Alert walks to the light, smiling.
Why is this so similar...? Starscream frowns at this thought.
"Here, let me introduce them to you. Start from the left." Says Red Alert as he raises his right arm.
He points to the yellow-haired boy, "That's Red."
Then he points the fat boy beside him.
"That's Billy."
"Finally he points to the tall boy who's leaning against the wall.
"And that's Fred."
"...Red...?" The Decepticon whispers. Wait, Red...I've seen him before...with the brown-haired girl...wait... Alexis?
"Uhh...Red?" Starscream asks softly.
Red answers with surprise, "Yeah?"
"Are...are you a friend of the brown-haired girl...called Alexis?"
The crowd gasps. Red smiles.
"Ye-Yes! Alexis, yes!, I am!...do...do you remember me?" Red asks excitedly.
"Well, I don't know where I've seen you before, but...I do...kind of." The mech frowns, "But where? When? How could I know you, know any of you? How could I met yo-"
"I think I can answer that." A female voice pops up, and Starscream turns to where the owner of that voice is.
The girl is walking pass the gate.
And toward where Red is, her necklace glowing in the light and sparkling.
She smiles to the mech.
A word comes out of Starscream's mouth before he even realizes that.
"Alexis."
