《Protected》Chapter 9

It's been almost forty-five minutes since they left and I was immediately bored. Finally the roar of a motorcycle is heard.
Jack and Arcee skid into the room. Jack gets off the motorcycle while holding a backpack in his hands. He heads towards the bathroom and Raf and Bumblebee come back to base.
Raf is holding an orange backpack and heads towards me.
"Are you ready?" I ask him and he smiles.
"Yep, I have some chips, chocolate, and skittles," Raf says still smiling.
"Awesome!" I exclaim as Jack wakes out of the bathroom in grey sweatpants and a white tee-shirt.
"Hey Jack!" I call as he walks up the the stairs towards Raf and I, well just me seeing as Raf is walking down towards the bathroom.
He stops in front of me," What's up?"
"Do the autobots have a projector?" I ask
"I think they do, I'll ask Arcee," Jack says as he goes to find Arcee.
I wait a few moments and I hear Miko and Bulkhead laughs and within a minute they are inside the base. Miko gets out with a bag and sits on the stairs. Arcee walks in holding something small in her hands and Jack sitting on her shoulder.
She grabs him in her hand gently and gives him the small thing in her other hand to him. As they get closer I recognize it as a projector.
I smile as Jack sets it up. It is fairly silent, that is until Raf walks out of the bathroom and Miko rushes in to change.
Raf walks out to the main room wearing an orange long sleeved shirt with a car on it with sweat pants as well.
Raf walks up to me and Jack and we start talking, the autobots listening.

"So, are you guys excited?" Raf asks.
"Yes!" I exclaim to him," I love how she wins by someone else's strategy."
"No, I like how she is awesome and thought of her own," Raf explains.
I stare at him in shock as Jack says, "I like Petta best."
The transformers start paying attention to our conversation.
"No way! Rue and Prim are the best!" I exclaim in outrage.
Raf then says," Oh come on they are defenceless!"
"They are!" Jack says.
I gasp," How dare you! While they may seem weak they fought till the end! They are both brave!"
"You got us there," Jack and Raf say at the same time.
Miko then speaks up," Are we gonna watch this movie or not!"
Jack mumbles a yeah as he and Arcee finish setting everything up for the movie. I stumble down the stairs slightly cursing my clumsy butt.
I see what the group brought and my eyes widen. They brought a mountain of blankets and a lake of pillows. There are stuffed animals, most likely brought by Miko. Then there is a pile of snacks of all sorts. There are chips, candy like chocolate, skittles, gummy bears, and more, oh and drinks like water and soda.
I look at Miko and Raf with a raised eyebrow.
"Wow this is a lot of snacks, are you guys gonna be able to eat it all?" I question the girl and boy in front of me.
I look at Miko who is wearing black leggings with an oversized tee shirt that reaches around mid thigh, and shake my head.
Miko just laughs," Aren't you gonna eat anything?"
Ratchet coughs, and Miko's eyes show realization as Ratchet says," No she will not."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I know. 'No candy, no junk food, no popcorn. You have to be healthy!' I know Hatchet," I say to him annoyed.
"Well since you don't have a reason for passing out you are to eat only healthy things!" Ratchet says.
"Whatever," I sigh as I roll my eyes at him. "Everyone get ready to watch the movie," I say with a smile now on my face.
The Transformers sit on the floor while Miko and I make a blanket, pillow, and stuffed animal bed type thing on the platform. Raf, Jack, Miko, and I jump into the bed type thing with the snacks around us.
"Hit play, carefully," I say to the transformers.
They do and one of the best movies play on the screen. Miko cheers with Raf and Jack at the fight scenes while poor Bulkhead screams every once in a while. I sit just watching the makeshift screen playing the movie.
After the end of the first movie Ratchet asks," How can you enjoy this?"
"Simple, it entertains. You get wrapped in the plot of the movie, personally I like the books better," I answer him with a smile.
He rolls his eyes, I really want to learn their terms for their body parts. I sigh in retaliation as I look at Arcee.
"Arcee can you put in the second disc?" I ask the female transformer.
She shrugs and gently pushes the disc into the DVD player after pulling the first disc out. She pushes play and the second out of three movies play again Bulkhead squeals like a little girl. However in this movie Bee makes whirring sounds when he either feels scared of the movie or sadness. Miko, Raf, Jack, and Arcee cheer when Katniss figures everything out and yells at the screen when the movie ends.
"Do you enjoy torturing us with that ending?" Miko asks over dramatically.
I chuckle and say," Miko, if I enjoyed torturing you guys like that I would make you wait till tomorrow to watch the next ones."
"There's more than one more movie!?" Ratchet exclaims in horror.
I laugh and say," Yes, I thought you did research."
"I did but it said there was three books!" Ratchet cries out as if it will justify it.
I roll my eyes slightly as I say," Just because there are three books doesn't mean there can't be more movies. Anyways, Miko looks like she is burst, can we start the next one?"
Sure enough about three minutes later Katniss is back on the screen. Ratchet makes comments about how bad this was to watch while Optimus questions if we humans should go to sleep. Soon enough the movie ends and I shush the two transformers and have Arcee put in the final movie.
I yawn quietly during the middle of the scene where Finnick dies and Ratchet sadly hears it.
He goes to turn off the projector, that is until I say," Turn it off and I will rip your insides out."
Ratchet removes his hand and sit back down. We finish the movie with screams, yelps, tears, and yawns.
"Time for bed everyone!" Ratchet says to well everyone and turns off the lights.
The guys, Miko and I get comfy and drift off to sleep.
