Chapter 3

Activity List.


I turned to another page as I sat on the windowsill, I hadn't fallen asleep since having that dream, more like nightmare. I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair and continued to read the book in my hands. I mumbled and scanned the words with me eyes. I hummed softly and sighed. I looked like a freaking zombie! I grumbled and got off the windowsill and headed to my desk as I grabbed my clothes and then headed towards the shower, hopefully the hot water will wake me up.

I walked towards the bathroom and entered said room as I locked the door behind me. I sighed and leaned against the door and looked to the ceiling above me. I shivered, I got this bad feeling and I have no clue why. I huffed and started the shower up.

I undressed out from my Pyjamas and stepped into the shower. I shivered as the warm water hit me. I sighed and leaned against the tiles, my hand on my stomach where I felt pain in my dream. The water was making my hair wet.

The name Dusk was repeating in my head, who is this Dusk? And what is my connection to them. I shook my head, so many damn questions! I let out a frustrated sigh and began to wash myself.


I stepped out from the bathroom after having my shower, drying myself and then getting dressed. I mumbled as I walked down the stairs. I glanced at the clock, half five in the damn morning! I sighed and glanced around the room. I took a piece of paper and began to write a note for both Jack and mom so the two won't worry about me. I spotted my messenger back and walked over to grab it. I stuffed my keys and phone which was charging downstairs. I also grabbed my whistle and placed that into the bag also. I mumbled and unlocked the door, opening it as it creaked. I flinched and walked out, closing the door behind me and then locking it.

I paused as my phone made a noise, telling me I got a message. I took my phone out and checked.

Where you off to?- Arcee.

I said nothing, she must had heard me walking about.

For a walk- Coral.

I walked down the path that lead to the house. I paused as my phone went off.

Won't Jack and your mother worry?- Arcee

Not really, this isn't the first time I've done this, as long as I leave a note for them I'll be ok- Coral.

I sighed and walked down the street as the sun was beginning to rise. I frowned, I've been walking about at four in the morning one time, so this isn't rare, it's normal for me to be awake at the crack of dawn and not be home. I frowned and continued to walk. I yawned slightly but didn't stop walking. I looked around, it was so quiet and peaceful.

"Coral?"

I paused and turned around, and surprise, surprise, it was Ratchet...What is he doing here?

"Yes?" I asked.

"Why are you out at this time?"

"Couldn't sleep." I answered.

There was silence as the driver side of the door opened. I said nothing but then sighed as I walked over and climbed in, the door closing after I sat down. The ambulance turned around and well...Headed towards the desert.


I hopped out as Ratchet transformed behind me, he immediately went to his terminal. I looked around and walked towards a crate as I sat on it.

"Now, don't bother me." He told me.

I let out a snort. "Whatever!"

He glared at me as I looked to my feet, kicking my legs as they dangled off the crate. I fell silent and hopped off the crate as I silently walked off and down towards the hall as curiosity had gotten the better of me.

"And don't bother Optimus."

I rolled my eyes. "Sure thing doc."

He growled and I rolled my eyes once more and walked down the hall. Looking around while I was at it, like I will bother Optimus, unless he wants company then fine. I hummed and continued down the hall. I stretched and yawned as I continued my little stroll down the hall, it was quiet, so quiet. I frowned slightly but I continued to walk. I huffed and continued down the long corridor.


I stepped into a grey platform and looked at it with curiosity. I squeaked as it began to rise upwards to god knows where. I looked around as it continued to go up and up. I frowned but said nothing else as I allowed it to rise up.

It eventually came to a stop as I stepped out from it and to my surprise, I was outside, at least I know where that takes me. And damn, today is surprise day, because I spotted Optimus in front of me, he looked to be in deep thought, I wonder why. I said nothing and remained where I was. I took my phone out and saw it was half past five. I put my phone away and closed my small messenger bag after zipping it up.

What should I do? Stay here like a statue or walk over...

Maybe I should try my luck and walk over, hoping I don't scare him. I breathed out slowly and walked over.

Well Optimus must of sensed someone was approaching because he turned around and I watched as his expression went to blank to surprise in a matter of second that I was silently keeping him company. His surprise went.

"Coral." He greeted.

I smiled and walked over as I stretched as I was walking forward.


I peered from my spot in Optimus' palm, we had spoke not of much, although I did notice he was looking concerned, probably he noticed I was pale and the dark circles under my eyes, that's from lack of sleep.

He paused as there was a commotion from the main room. I frowned and we both looked at each other.

"That doesn't sound good." I mumbled.

He didn't hesitate and hurried to the main room, what I saw sent shivers up my spine.

"The hell is that!" I shrieked at the same time Optimus shot the spider mutant thingy.

I watched as it got back up but I then cringed as Optimus stepped on it. I shivered and looked at the crushed spider thing.

"And stay broken!" Ratchet hissed.

I looked at him and I noticed he looked surprised that I had somehow ended up with Prime.

"Now what could of caused that?" Ratchet asked.

"I have a grave suspicion Ratchet. Dark energon." Optimus told him.

"You mean that purple stuff?" I asked as I was handed over to Ratchet.

Optimus gave a nod to say I was right. "If the residue Arcee found on Cliffjumper brought your equipment to life, it would stand to reason that the very same substance brought Cliffjumper back to life." He put it in storage.

"Hmm, that would account for his life signal to inexplicably coming back online." Ratchet said as I was placed on the floor. "But, dark energon? It's so scares as to be virtually non-existences. what would it be doing on Earth?" He then asked.

"It was transported, by Megatron." Came the reply.

"For what purpose?"

"To conquer this planet by raising the undead." Optimus answered grimly.

"Zombies!" I squeaked in horror.

"Ha ha, well, Megatron will have to break a few toaster ovens. I mean where on this world will he find that many Cybertronian dead?" Ratchet said amused.

"Earth?" I suggested as the two looked at me. I shrugged. "Well, maybe you two and the others were not the first ones to arrive on Earth."

Before Ratchet could retort the others had arrived from their day out. I observed as they got off/out from their guardians, laughing. I pouted.

"So this is where you are." Jack said to me.

I nodded. "Got my note?"

He nodded. I noticed Ratchet and Optimus looked confused while I mouthed 'tell you later.' Miko approached me as we both did as fist bump.

"Sup Coral, had fun?" She asked me

"Eh...I guess." I replied.

"Autobots, prepare to..." Optimus began as he looked down to us.

"Roll out?" Arcee finished after a awkward silence as she puts a hand on her hip.

"Remain here." Optimus told us as he gestured his hand. "Ratchet you'll come with me. Arcee we'll be out of communication range for a while, so I'm outing you in charge."

"Dude, you're the biggest! You should be boss!" Miko said to Bulkhead.

"Uh, he never picks me." Bulkhead said.

Ratchet was typing in the coordinates and Arcee approached Optimus.

"Optimus, with all due respect, playing body guard is one thing baby sitting another." Arcee protested with a slight growl in her tone.

"Besides, Ratchet hasn't been in the field since the war." She then added quietly.

Ratchet must have had heard her as he was glaring at the azure bot.

"My piston may be rusty, but my hearing is sharp as ever!" Ratchet growled. I coughed to hide a laugh.

"For the moment, it's only reaconisons." Optimus said.

"Then why do I hear edge in your voice?" Arcee asked with suspicion.

"Arcee much has changed in the last 24 hours and we all need to adapt. Ratchet, bridge us out." Optimus said slightly annoyed as he and Ratchet go through the ground bridge, leaving us behind.

"Okay chiefie, so uh, what's on the activity list?" Jack said. Arcee rolled her eyes.

"I'm going on patrol." Arcee announced as she turned around.

"But Optimus told us to stay put." Bulkhead protested.

"When you're in charge you can call the shots, Bee with me!" Arcee growled.

"B-But...Oh fine." Bumblebee said.

"Bulkhead, you're in charge." Arcee said as she and Bumblebee transformed and leave base.

"So uh, what's on the activity list?" Bulkhead asked as I sighed.

We covered our ears as a high pitch sound filled the base. I looked over to see Miko plug in her guitar into speakers.

"How about band practice." Miko suggested.

"But we're not a band." Raf tells her.

"Why so anti-social? Come on Raf! You play something?" Miko said.

"Umm...Keyboard?" Raf said as he holds up his laptop.

"Laptops and samples, good!" Miko said happily then she turns to Jack "Jack?"

"I, sometimes mess around with the harmonica." Jack said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Do I look country?!" Miko snapped "Just cover yourself in fake blood and jump around screaming."

She looked at me. "Coral?"

"Um...Bodyguard?" I said.

"...Sure."

She began to play her guitar again, the room flashes green, oh no, Proximity Sensor.

"Whoa whoa!" Bulkhead as he stopped Miko.

"Come on, you can't handle raw power?" She asked.

"Proximity sensor quick hide!" Bulkhead said as he shooed us away.

We went to hide and it was the most stupidest place ever...Bulkhead's foot...

"PRIME!" Fowler yelled as I winch.

"Agent Fowler, uh, he's not here. Nobody's here! Except me of course!" Bulkhead said with nervousness in his tone.

"Well, where did he go? Wait; don't tell me he's out pancaking a mini mall!" The man growls as I roll my eyes and shook my head. "Now I don't know what language you bot's speak on your planet, but Prime promised he would handle the Decepticons! And blowing a crater in the middle of Nebraska is not what the word handle means! So you tell Prime…"

Miko's guitar made a nose. I pinched the ridge of my nose as Miko smiled nervously.

"Since when did you bots do electric?" Fowler asked as Bulkhead jumped and looked to the cable.

Oopsie! Looks like we got caught out. We emerged from hiding. Fowler did not look happy.

"How's it going." Jack said, as if that'll make him any better.

"Contact with civilians! Team prime has really gone off line this time. Wait; don't tell me you're running a day care centre!" Fowler exclaimed. Bulkhead looked like he got caught sticking his hand in a sweet jar red handed

"Ooooooookay…" Bulkhead muttered as he looked to us.

"Uh, we're interns." Jack said.

"Students interns." Raf adds.

"Ah, earning extra credits in auto..." Jack began as he trailed off.

"Robotics." Miko and I said at the same time as we finish the sentence.

"Okay, let's move I'm taking all four of you to federal custody." Fowler said as he walked down the stairs. "It's for your own protection."

Bulkhead stomped his foot between us and him "We're protecting them." He told the agent.

"Is that so?" Fowler retorted "Well maybe you can explain to my superior at the pentagon." he said as he grabs the phone.

...They have a phone?

"Don't use that phone." Bulkhead said as he poked it "It's broken."

"This isn't over bigfoot, not by a long shot." Fowler ranted as he stormed up the stairs.

Miko mimicked his actions. I coughed to hide a laugh.

It was another good few minutes, another alarm went off.

"My ears." Raf said as I covered them.

Bulkhead stopped the alarm and I removed my hands from his ears.

"It's an SOS from Fowler." Bulkhead said as he walked up to the computer and typed into it.

"Do you have any idea what you're doing?" I asked.

"Did you trace it?" Raf asked.

"Location scan incomplete, oh well." Bulkhead said as he shrugged it off.

"Oh well? Seriously?" Jack asked.

"Fowler's a jerk!" Bulkhead said defensively.

"Whoa, whether you like the guy or not, the Decepticons have him." Jack said as.

"He has a point Bulkhead." I said.

"And agent Fowler knows your location." Raf said as fear came onto his face. "Our location."

"And did we not witness how fast Fowler backed down from a bot? The cons will totally make him squeal." Miko joined in.

"But we lost the transition! Fowler could be anywhere!" Bulkhead exclaimed as Raf took his laptop out.

"Maybe I can narrow it down." Raf said as he typed on his laptop "About five years ago the government started micro chipping there agents, you know, like owners do with pets."

All of us simply stared at him as if he had lost it or something.

"What! I saw it on TV!" Raf protested as he began to type again. "Anyway, if I can hack into the FED's main frame maybe I can pin point Fowler's coordinates."

"You know how to hack?" Jack asked.

"But your like, two years old." Miko joined in.

"12 and a quarter." Raf said then he looked to his screen.

I watched as a map appeared on screen. I observed the map.

"Latitude 39.5, longitude 116.9." Raf said as Bulkhead typed the coordinates into the computer then activated the ground bridge.

"Okay, wait here." Bulkhead said as he walked to the groundbridge.

"Aww! Don't break up the band!" Miko whined.

"Uh, Coral! You're in charge." Bulkhead said as I began to splutter and he ran through the groundbridge.

"I guess us four have a run of the place." Jack said as he looks at us. "Miko?" Jack said "Miko!" he said more louder as we look around.

"What should we do? Bulkhead may not even realize that she followed him!" Raf said in concern.

"Miko hasn't seen the Cons in action like we have, she has no idea." Jack said as I looked to the groundbridge.

"Those are coordinates. Their destination still locked in!" Raf said.

We all ran to the groundbridge and went through it. Jack and Raf had went first and I followed closely behind. For some reason, the groundbridge got brighter. I shielded my eyes and everything went dark.


Again, I was having a dream again. It feels like I'm in someone else's body, in someone's mind. Oh no, not again, I already had this type of thing before, why now? Vision was getting clearer and clearer in my dreams, I noticed it was clearing up since I met the bots. Before it was voices and faint images.

"Is Dark energon really that bad?" A feminine voice asked, I soon realized it was the one who's body I was sharing with that spoke.

"Yes, dark energon has the power to revive the dead."

"Really?"

...That...That sounds like...


I opened my eyes as I squinted them. I was looking to the grey sky as I soon realized I was not with Jack nor Raf. I slowly sat up and clutched my head and looked around. Where am I?

I sighed and stood up, dusting myself off and my messenger bag. I looked around, the hell is this place? I frowned and touched my head to see if there was any blood and to my relief, there wasn't.

I don't feel too good.

I groaned, must have been the groundbridge that was responsible. I sighed and looked around. I took my phone out and there was no signal whatsoever. I spotted my whistle in the bag and I grinned along with my iPod, headphones and the keys I placed in there this morning. I put my phone away and zipped it up.

The important thing is...Why did the groundbridge bring me here for? I have no reason to be here...Did I? I said nothing and walked forward whilst looking around my surroundings. I groaned, what reason did I have to be here?

I looked ahead and came to a halt as I spotted Ratchet and Optimus...Oh shit!

I spotted a rock and went to hide behind it, hoping they didn't spot me. I held my breath.

"Coral you got five seconds to come out from hiding or so Primus help me I will force you out!"

"Ratchet, was that necessary?"

Shit! I got caught! I scowled and emerged from hiding. Ratchet's look was murderous while Optimus was calm but had a 'Please explain' look on his face...Wait...Ratchet must of turned his head and saw me, god damn it!


And we're done! Phew!

Hehe. Coral got caught sneaking about~

Anyway, thanks for reading, review if you want, I'm not gonna force you.
