Forbidden Love

Chapter 9

I walked with a beast like creature towards the forest. Hr led me into a cave I recognized as 'home'. There were energon everywhere, some in the raw form and some in a prosessed liquid form. There were puddles of it around here. One thing I noticed when I looked at my reflection in the puddle was that I looked sort of like the beast in front of me, but my eyes were blue, not yellow, and I had a softer body shape.

The beast stopped and turned around to look at me. It talked to me in moans, growls, or roars which I understood as :I would like to give you this: he said holding over a sword that I recognized as the star saber. It looked just like any ordinary sword.

:Why would you entrust me with something of high value, father?: I asked. :I need you to hide this, so that it doesn't go into the wrong hands... Beware of the Decepticons, their cause is not to be undertsood, and will bring great destruction to both our worlds and our species: 'Dad' replied. I nodded and grabbed the sword in my mouth, it glowed blue and turned smoky. I admired it before flying away to hide it.

My 'Dad' suddenly followed me. :Where are you going to hide it?: he asked, but there was a weird thing to the way he talked. I told myself not to reply and just grumbled.

:ANSWER ME!!: He shouted. I shook my head and continued to fly forward, a little faster this time. I heard 'Dad' roared and flew towards me. I grunted as I fell into cliffs and rocks. The sword was loose from my mouth and went stuck on the cliff before it locks on. The stone glowed blue before it all dissapeared.

My 'Dad' ran to grab it, and tried his best to take it out of the rock, but he couldn't do it. :It is not yours to own. SHIFTER!: I roared and shot him with my fire blasts. He groaned but got up and attacked me again. I was a little smaller than him, but I got the advantage of speed.

I shot him multiple times and slashed him. But he did the same. I groaned as I was thrown back to the rock, my body hurts so much and my wing couldn't move anymore.

He prepared to fire, I thought my life was over when my dad suddenly came and fought the impostor. He wasn't winning though. And he gathered his strength to try and destroy the impostor. But he couldn't and he was soon to die... :Run! Run and don't look back! Go! Hide!: My dad shouted. I hesitated but followed his orders and ran away from the site, just when I heard my dad gave one last roar and an explosion... He died...

I woke up sweating from the dream. What are those dragons? Shifter? Energon? They seem too real to be a dream... It felt familiar, like a memory? I groaned and flopped back on my pillow. I looked out the window, the morning light was shining through the curtains, illuminating the room.

That's when I realised, it was Saturday! Optimus will be picking me up early. I quickly got changed and prepared to leave and got on Optimus just in time.

I was a little silent in the ride, I was still thinking about that intriguing dream. Optimus seems to notice. "Are you alright Xava?". I was pulled back to reality. "Huh? Oh yeah.. I'm fine" I lied. "Are you sure? Is something bothering you? You can always talk to me" He said in a slightly worried yet reassuring tone.

"I'm fine, it's just a dream I had last night" I shrugged. "Would you be comfortable in sharing me the dream?" he asked again. I chuckled at his caringness. "Maybe later, thanks anyway". "Alright. If you do need me, I will always be here" he said. I gave a small smiled and rubbed his semi.

We were back at base and I got off. Optimus transformed and walked over to the main room. I climbed up to the human lounge and sat down on the couch holding the side of my head a little.

But Fowler's calls from the coms caught my attention. "Prime! Prime!".
Optimus walked up to the computer. "Special agent Fowler?
To what do we owe?"
