Hey guys, sorry for the long... long... long wait. I have been working and scrambling to catch up with school. I hope you all understand, and as always enjoy. :)
Ch. 25
'He should be there by now.' Frost told herself as she quietly snuck through the halls. "Thank you Vector Prime." She whispered as she slowed the security cameras long enough for her to get passed without Red Alert noticing.
Slowing down as she made it to the room. Bumblebee was sipping on a cube as he stared at the many camera that Telatraan was connected to through the satellites. He looked away and smiled as Frost walked over and sat in the other chair.
"You came." He was a mix of surprised and relieved.
"Yeah, Bee there's something I need to tell you." She said slowly, trying to keep her composure but her spark jolted a million jolts a nanosecond.
"Me too, but you go first." Bumblebee felt his spark speed up.
Frost took a deep intake before staring at the ground. Her wings slowly moved up and down. "For a while now, I've kept a secret from you. And I'll totally understand if you don't feel the same. But I like you, like really like you."
Bumblebee sat up straighter, sat his energon done, and took both of Frost's servos. "I feel the same, that's why I wanted you to come here."
"Really?" Frost looked at him nervously, her wings reflected her happiness.
He nodded slowly and the two slowly leaned forward into each other. Their optics offlined as their faces inched closer, and they remained off as their lips finally made contact. The two were so caught up in the moment, that they didn't realize that they were being watched by everyone from the security room.
"Finally, that'll be two cubes of high grade Ironhide." Brawn playfully punched the grumpy red mech.
"Aw that's so cute, I remember when we used to sneak around the base." Smokescreen playfully winked at Sideswipe and Sunstreaker.
Jazz was smiling at the monitor, and looked up when he saw Prowl looking at it with a stern expression. His wings were flared protectively. He threw an arm over his shoulder and chuckled. "Prowler they are fine, it's not like they're gonna interface. Ah told Bee dat if he hurts Frost we'll be there tah make him pay. Don't worry so much."
"But she's a teenager, you know how they get when they start to get curious about romance. I just don't want to see her get hurt. And if they don't work out, it's not like they'll never see each other again." Prowl looked at his friend as he expressed his fears.
"Yer right, but dah chances of dat are slim." Jazz tried to reassure his friend. "Yer gonna tah stop 'em aren't ya?"
"No. Maybe. Yes." Prowl flicked his wings and marched out of the room.
Red Alert stood up with a worried expression on his face. "Woah. Prowl I'd stay out of there if I were you."
Prowl rushed back in and looked at the monitor, worried that the inevitable happened. He watched the camera freak out and freeze on Bumblebee pulling away. "She must've found out some how? Now I need to go and make sure they aren't doing anything dumb."
"I'll go with." Bluestreak followed his brother.
In the room, Frost stood up with a nervous smile. She couldn't stop smiling at how much she liked kissing the scout. Her wings were perked up and her spark jolted excitedly.
"That was nice." She chuckled happily.
He nodded in agreement, "Yeah so does that mean that we're a couple?"
Frost locked her lips and felt herself heat up. Her cooling fans kicked in quietly. "I'd like that. A lot."
"Me too, I'm glad that you came." Bumblebee smiled as he sat forward in his seat.
Before the white femme could express the same, the door slid open and the two pulled away. Prowl looked back and forth at the surprised bots. "Sire, Uncle Bluestreak what are you two doing up?"
"I could ask you the same thing. What are you doing? And don't try lying, your wings will betray you." Prowl warned her.
"I… we… we weren't doing anything, just kissed." Frost told the truth as she stood up.
Bumblebee stood up also, "Prowl, we weren't doing anything wrong."
Bluestreak put a servo on his brother's chest, stopping him from marching over to the yellow mech and expressing his feelings. "Frost, go to your quarters and get some recharge. We'll talk about it in the morning, and you'll be sure that Ratchet will be with us to have a talk."
"Oh, okay." Frost turned to Bumblebee, and pecked his cheek. "Night Bee, I'll see you tomorrow." She walked past her family, not looking at them as her wings drooped a little.
Prowl looked at the scout with concern. "Don't hurt her, or I'll hurt you."
Bumblebee felt his intake stop, "Prowl, you don't need to worry. I won't hurt her, I promise."
"Good, now get back to your post." Prowl said sternly before turning on his heel and going to his office.
Bluestreak sighed in defeat, his wings flicked upwards. "Don't worry about him, he's just protective of Frost. He doesn't want to see her get hurt."
"I know but he's still scary when he gets mad." Bumblebee said quietly. "I should get back to monitor duty."
"Yeah, I'll see you in the morning." He patted his shoulder before leaving.
Frost laid on her berth in frustration. She couldn't stop being angry at her Sire for lashing out on them for a kiss. The kiss. Frost also couldn't stop smiling and touch her lips at the thought that her and Bumblebee finally kissed. Her spark swelled with happiness that her tree and her crush were now dating. Little did she know that her happiness was soon comin to an end.
'Frost, Frost I will be coming back to Earth soon.' Vector Prime's voice came through their bond.
'What? Why?' Frost sat up quickly with fear on her face.
'You're endanger.' He warned before closing off the bond.
"Great." Frost said with sarcasm before plopping back down on the berth, and going to sleep for the night.
Vector Prime floated in his dimension with the alternate and many universes that Primus created. All the universes were different but the similar at the same time. Primus created universes with all the same Autobots and Decepticons, but each looked different from every copy of themselves. Some switched sides, or deactivated during the wars. Vector Prime and the original thirteen Primes, and even Frost didn't have copies. He felt that the time to bring Frost to his dimension, and train her to be a Guardian of time and space. His spark was fading, which meant he had little time to teach everything he needed to teach her.
"I hope you understand why I'm doing this." The Prime said as he scooped up the tiny orb of the universe that his creations lived, examine both side to keep his bit of sanity alive. "Megatron isn't going to win this battle. The Autobots will win."
The Prime lifted the orb into the air and pushed it back into place in the middle of the room. He turned his attention to another universe where the Autobot team was small and worked secretly with the government, and the poor scout had lost his voice. He found the humans that they had surrounded themselves interesting, especially the young man who was able to keep the matrix of Leadership safe. After a short peek into their world, the Prime floated towards the universe that he visited frequently. He enjoyed the young Ironhide's company, and teaching Red Alert, who in this world was more medic than security director, about his world.
"I did promise Rad that I would return to assist in a fight." Vector Prime lifted up the appropriate orb, and shot beams of energy at it to expand its size. Once at its full size, the Prime flew through it.
Prowl sat in his desk chair, staring at the offlined Holo screen. He couldn't distract himself or even leave the room. The mech slid the chair and sighed in frustration, knowing that he had fragged up with Frost. "I'll talk to her in the morning." He told himself before standing up, and walking to his quarters.
He dragged peds as he went straight to his berth. "Defiantly in the morning." Prowl said in between yawns. "Primus, I'm tired."
Prowl pulled thermal blankets over himself as he fell into stasis. His processor replayed memories of him and Frost building a protective circle around her with the thermal blankets they had. He smiled in his recharge as more memories. Morning came, and he left his quarters to find Frost. She was in her quarters still recharging; music played quietly next to her. Prowl turned to leave, but Frost sat up.
"Wait." She climbed off her berth and grabbed his wrist. "Are you mad at me?"
Prowl was a bit taken back at her worry. He tilted his helm with a sad smile. "I'm not mad, I just don't want to see you get hurt."
"I know you worry about me, and I'm not saying it's bad. But I need to do this on my own. I don't want you to scare Bumblebee away, he means a lot to me. As a friend and more. We aren't going to do anything, we're just seeing if it'll work out. And deep down, I know it will." Frost said as her wings moved down and then back up.
"I know you'll do the right thing. And I'll try to not be as overprotective, but I want you both to talk to Ratchet before you two actually do anything." Prowl warned her sternly before pulling her in a hug. "I love you."
"I love you too." Frost nuzzled his chest before pulling away. "So are you okay with me being with him?"
Prowl nodded, "Yes as long as you don't do anything without seeing Ratchet."
"I'll do that as soon as I get some free time." Frost said.
They were just entering the hallway when the ground rumbled, followed by a loud explosion. Frost was about to ask Prowl what that was, when Hound went booking down a connecting hallway with medical supplies. The two Praxians ran after the green mech.
"Hound what is it? What was that explosion?" Prowl asked when they followed him outside.
"I don't know, Ratchet asked me to hurry and grab his repair kit." Hound said as he handed the medic his things.
Frost took a couple steps forward as smoke continued to rise from the object miles away. She felt his presence and him being here, meant only one thing. Her time with everyone was coming to an end. The femme's fists clenched tightly and her wings strained to stay up.
"I know you're there! Go back, I'm not leaving them! You can't make me!" Frost shouted into the open air before transforming and speeding in the opposite direction of everything.
Prowl and his brothers quickly transformed, and followed after her. Jazz took a small group of the others, and went to go investigate the crash site. When they got there they all knew what got Frost so upset. Vector Prime vented heavily as he pushed himself off the ground. He shook the sand off his wings.
"Well my landing could've been smoother. The Decepticons must've built a weapon to counter act my powers." He rubbed his chin.
"Whatcha doing here?" Jazz asked him.
"I believe you all know that answer. I've come to bring Frost home." He said bluntly. "And I sense that my creation is not pleased with my appearance."
"No, she's not. Frost loves it here, we can keep her safe. We can protect her from dah Cons." Jazz said defensively.
Vector Prime chuckled with a shake of his helm. "I'm not saying you can't keep her safe. It's more than that. I'm going to join my brothers in the realm of the Primes, and Frost is my successor."
"What if Frost wants to be here?" Cliffjumper shouted from his place next to Jazz.
Vector Prime sighed sadly and his wings flicked slightly. "Yes I am aware of Frost's feelings. I know she will not happy, but I only wish to keep her safe and away from Megatron."
"I don't want to leave my family." Everyone turned around and saw Frost standing behind them with her arms crossed. "The Decepticons haven't bothered us in months! And I can take care of myself, you of all bots should know this. Creator." When she said 'Creator', it sounded as if it was a bad word.
"Frost, I'm not saying that you're incapable. But in my way here to bring you back to my… our realm, I was shot down by Megatron. Projectiles can't touch us when we are teleporting. They may not have been physically doing anything to you, but they have been studying us by watching you using your abilities." Vector Prime explained to her and everyone else. "Which is why I must take you back. Not for just your sake, but everyone on this planet and every universe."
"He's right little femme!" Megatron's scratchy voice came from the sky. The Warlord, along with a few others, landed adjacent from the Primes. "Thanks to your constant usage of your abilities, as given all the research for Shockwave to create this device. I decided to test it on the Prime, and it worked splendidly. Now the question is what will it do to a normal Autobot?" He pointed a small black box with a clear glass ball on the front at the Autobots.
Frost flared her wings defensively as she appeared in front of the group. A red beam shot from the box, hitting Frost directly in the chest. Or at least that's what everyone thought, but the beam was being pushed back by Frost's beam. She could barely keep it up as it drained her quickly. Frost staggered and her wings began to droop. Prowl couldn't move and all he could was stare in horror as the artificial red beam increased. Megatron smirked as he slowly increased the power. Frost's beam grew smaller and smaller.
"Vector Prime! Do something!" The Praxian finally shouted when he pulled out his blaster. He pointed it at the box, pulling the trigger and fired. The box went flying out of the Decepticons servos.
Frost vented tiredly as she fell to her knees. She staggered as she stood up, pulling out her katana. The Autobots and Decepticons drew their weapons, a battle broke out. Vector Prime disappeared and reappeared long enough to grab the box before teleporting beside Frost.
"Frost, we have to go now. It's for the best." He took her small servo, but she pulled away from him.
"I can't just up and leave my team, my family, to fight this crazy mech." She teleported to the battle, and quickly jumped into action. She swung her katana to the side, and clipped Megatron's arm. "Leave. Now." Frost demanded before swinging her weapon in an arching motion. She was shot back by Megatron and Starscream's blasts.
Frost groaned in pain. Some of the Autobots rushed over to help her up. She smiled a thank you to them. Frost looked at the Decepticons angrily and her orb began to glow. The femme revved her engines angrily as she sheathed her katana. The glow in the orb grew brighter and her wings were equally bright as they arched upwards. The beams concentrated on Megatron, but the Warlord flew up and barely avoided the light.
Megatron fired repeated shots at Frost, the Autobots were busing attacking the other Decepticons. Optimus assisted Frost in attacking his brother. Vector Prime appeared beside his successor, took her servo and released what power he had into a beam. They aimed the beam at the Decepticons until they were all in the sky. Vector Prime and Frost cut the beams, and he pointed at Megatron's grim expression.
"I will keep coming back until I get my servos on her and your spark, Vector Prime! And that isn't a threat, it's a promise!" Megatron shouted before flying away.
Everyone hesitated before holstering their guns. Prowl went around the field with Ratchet to help carry any injured bots to the med bay. Frost looked around with wide optics at the damage done to her family. She saw Bumblebee being walked to the med bay; arms were leaking fluid and fueling cables were draining. The femme ran towards the scout and Cliffjumper, "Bee. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine Frost just a bit dizzy. Are you okay? You got knocked around pretty good." He looked at her with her with worry.
Frost placed a servo on her chest. "I think I'm okay. I'll see you after you're repaired?"
He nodded before limping to the ARK. Frost looked at Vector Prime, who was standing on a stone slab with the box. She teleported to him with her wings drooped. "You're right Vector Prime. It's too dangerous to stay, can I at least say goodbye to everyone?"
"Of course Frost, we'll leave tonight. I know you do not like it, but it's for the best." Vector Prime turned and hugged Frost gently. "Were taking this with us, so no one can use it. How are you feeling? You look really drained."
Frost nodded in agreement, "I probably should refuel, I don't think I've ever held it for that long before. How do you refuel in your dimension? I mean I've only seen you refuel once when we were training."
"Time in my dimension is a lot slower than any of the dimensions I watch over. So when I visit one of them I'll usually bring a few cubes back with me. Frost there is something I need to tell you." Vector Prime took a deep intake before speaking. "I will only be with you in our realm for a solar cycle. I am going to be joining my brothers in the realm of the Primes. You will be watching over the universes in my place."
Frost looked up at him, mentally freaking out, her wings moved up and down with shivers. "Me? I can't watch over multiple universes! I can barely save this one."
"You have done a splendid job protecting your new home. I will back shortly, I must talk to Optimus Prime." He told her before disappearing.
Frost held her waist nervously and walked into the base. Her wings drooped as she walked through the base, not hearing the others calling out her name. She went straight to her room, and jumped onto her berth. Her optics watered when the realization hit her that she'd be leaving the only home she's known. She was too busy crying to notice her Sire walk in and sit beside her. Prowl pulled her into a hug, and rubbed small circles on her back.
"Why are you crying?" Prowl asked softly.
"I-I have to leave everyone. But I don't w-want to." Frost said behind rapid intakes.
Prowl frowned deeply and knew that she didn't want to. "Sweetspark, I know you don't want to and I don't want you to either. But if you know what you have to do, then it's the logical choice. I wish there was a way for you to stay here and go back home with us, but as long as Megatron has a way to stop you and Vector Prime, then I say go with him. But know that I will always love you, and everyone loves you too."
"But I don't want to be alone. Vector Prime is bringing me to his dimension, and then dying! I will be alone there, watching you guys and other universes." Frost pulled away to look at him. "I don't like being in silence, what if I do something wrong and destroy an alternate universe!?"
Prowl tried not to chuckle, but he failed badly. "Sorry it's not funny, but you won't do such a thing. You are a smart, young femme and do a great job. Vector Prime said that he's visited other universes, and made friends there. He just can't be there for long, so you can always do that."
"But remember how long it took him to come here? It takes a toll on his system. And when I went back and forth during my training? I couldn't stop purging!" Frost shouted behind watery optics.
"Frost, calm down please. You will be okay. Believe me when I say that I wish I could keep you here, but there is nothing we can't do." Prowl rubbed the back of her wings and placed a kiss on her forehead. "When will you be leaving?"
"Tonight." She simply said.
He nodded with a small smile. "Well then why don't we go for a drive for a bit?"
Frost smiled softly. "Okay."
Bumblebee hopped off the med berth with a pained grunt. "Thanks Ratchet."
"You're welcome, Bee." Ratchet said sorrowfully. "So did you hear?"
"Hear what?" The yellow mech looked up in confusion.
Before Ratchet could say Vector Prime walked in. "Frost and I will be leaving tonight."
Bumblebee stepped back with a shocked expression. "She's what? Frost's leaving? Why?"
"Because she is endanger and so is everyone else on this planet. Frost doesn't like it, and from your reaction neither do you." Vector Prime simply stated.
"Frost wants to be here with us. She's been wanting to see Cybertron since she was a sparkling!" He looked at him angrily. "You're willing to take her to your dimension, tell her to stand and watched his over everyone live their lives, and then you'll die!? Frost is going to be all alone! She has never liked being alone, and you're going to just do that to her?"
"I know that it's not ideal, but it's what must be done." Vector Prime kept his cool as he talked to the Minibot.
Bumblebee glared at the Prime before running out the med bay and transformed. He raced out of the base to cool off. Vector Prime shook his helm before sitting on the med berth. "Young bots just don't see things don't always go their way. I remember what it was like the first time I became the Guardian of time and space. I was alone, but then I visited other universes and made friends. Sure it took a toll on me, but I looked forward to seeing them. And then I created Frost, I knew that she would be a great Guardia when the time came."
"Frost is an intelligent femme, she's also very brave. I think when she is able to, she'll visit us as often as she can." Ratchet chuckled and then got serious. "You have to remember that Frost has grown up surrounded by bots that love her very much, and being taken away and being isolated will take a big toll on her. Many bots are going to very upset with you, but that's only because you're taken their sister and niece away from them."
"I know, but it's for the best. Her powers will only grow stronger, and Megatron damaged me. Imagine what he could do to her with another invention like he used on me? When I visit an alternate universe I stay for as long as I can, but then I leave because my presence can be very dangerous. I destroyed an entire planet when I was much younger, but luckily there was no life forms on it. If she were to stay here, there could be a chance of here destroying this Earth. Imagine how she would react if that happened?" The Prime looked at the medic with a concerned expression.
"I see." Was all he said.
Frost and Prowl pulled up to Spike's house. Spike and Carly walked out with their hands interlaced. "Frost, Prowl what are you guys doing here?" Spike asked as they transformed.
"I'm going to be leaving. Forever. I just came to say goodbye." Frost said sadly.
Carly frowned, "Really? Where are you going?"
"I'm going with Vector Prime, and take his place as Guardian of Time and Space." Frost answered.
The humans both frowned and hugged their friend's ped. Frost scooped them up and brought them to her face. She tried not to cry again, but her spark wouldn't stop breaking. Carefully but quickly sat them down and transformed. Prowl sighed sadly.
"We're going to head back to the ARK now. I'll see you two later." He said before transforming and following his daughter to the base.
Frost remained silent through the entire trip, not in the mood to talk a whole lot. When they made it back she transformed and couldn't look at any of her family members. They all hugged her and said their good byes, some even came back for a second and third hug. A few of them had given her a Holo pad of pictures that have been taken throughout her life with them. Frost smiled as she placed the pad in her subspace.
"Thanks everyone for this, it means a lot." Frost said behind the occasional tears. "I'll miss you all very much. I love you all."
Bumblebee walked up to Frost nervously and took her servo after hopping onto a rock, giving him a few inches. "I'm going to miss you tons, Frost."
"I'm going to miss you too. I wish I had told you sooner on how I felt." Frost admitted with a deep sigh.
"Well at least we got the chance to tell each other. I hope we get to see each other again soon." He smiled sadly as they looked into each other's optics.
Frost would've blushed if she could, but her cooking system quietly started. "Me too." She leaned in and kissed his lips. She could hear Bumblebee's cooling system start as they continued to kiss. Frost pulled away with a giggle and the scout chuckled awkwardly. "I hope I can come and visit."
"Yeah me too." He hugged her tightly.
Frost looked around for her Sire, and he was patiently waiting next to Vector Prime. She didn't care that he was within in walking distance, the femme ran to the mech that raised her, and hugged him tightly. Their wings stood out straight as they continued to hug each other. Prowl rubbed her back to comfort them both.
"I'll always think of you, sweetspark." Prowl whispered. "Because brave okay?"
Frost nodded as she kept herself from crying again. "I promise. I love you."
"I love you too." He kissed her helm before hesitantly pulling away. "We'll see each other very soon."
"I hope." Frost joked lightly.
After everyone said their good byes Frost looked up at Vector Prime as he extended his servo. She took it and then disappeared. Frost sighed behind hitched intakes, "Will it be able to see them?"
Vector Prime nodded as he led her to a room that had looked similar to her quarters on Earth. "I thought it would help you adjust. Now that you're here, I will tell you that it will take some time for you to get strong enough to go back. It takes some me a few Mega cycles to regain my strength."
"Okay, as long as I'm not forced to be here for eternity and not see another living creature, I'm fine." Frost said lightly.
"Well let's get started on your training." The Prime suggested and led her out of the room.
Little did Frost know, her adventure was anything but close to an end.
