《Protected》Chapter 15
Advertisement
As time went on the decepticons started to notice the change in Alex's personality. Alex became quieter, slept more and started eating less and less.
Knockout soon because worried and decided to bring it up with Megatron.
"So you see, she is deteriorating quickly. I don't know what is wrong," Knockout tells Megatron expressing his worries.
"Why should I care?" Megatron asks the cherry colored mech.
Knockout ponders for a moment before saying," She is important to the plan if she is hurt that could ruin everything."
"That is true," Megatron says thinking about what Knockout just told him. "Bring her here so we may talk."
On the other end of the ship Alex sits on a couch inside a cybertronian's dollhouse.
'It isn't that bad. It can't be that bad,' Alex tells herself.
She realized three days ago what was happening but just pushed it aside. Ever since she got here she started to bottle up emotions just like she used to. While she might have still been reserved this is on a whole new level.
Alex could barely sleep and would instead stay up all night worrying about nothing yet everything. But she still managed to get some sleep but when she woke up she never wanted to get out of bed.
It saddened her at the fact that is being weak in the face of an enemy. However she couldn't help it.
She figured someone knew by now because Primus and Unicron figured it out at least three days before her.
Alex decides to try and rest seeing as she hadn't slept very well and managed to fall into the dark world out dreams.
Meanwhile Knockout arrives at the human house they installed just for Alex and skimmed over it. He saw that she was actually sleeping for once instead of procrastinating over nothing.
So what does he do? He coms Megatron.

-Alex is getting some recharge-
-So?- Megatron replies.
-She hasn't had any for a long time. I think I will let her recharge and then we can talk to her- Knockout says as politely as possible.
-Very well then-
As I wake up I can tell that someone is close and watching me.
I open my eyes and the first thing I see is the cherry. I let out a small scream of surprise to show him I'm awake.
"Ah good you're finally awake. Megatron wants to talk with you," the cherry says.
I nod my head and get up out of the warm bed with comfy sheets. I know regret letting him know I was awake.
Knockout walks out of the room with me in his left hand. I am wrapped in a blanket but that doesn't really matter.
I get comfy in the palm out his hand as he walks down corridor after corridor.
We finally make it to the bridge room so you can look out the large window and see the world below. I notice that we are currently over a large forest.
"Knockout, I see you brought Alex, " Megatron says with a wicked grin.
Megatron holds out his hand so Knockout would place into it. Through the last week or so Megatron has grown comfortable with actually holding me and walking me around the Nemesis when he must.
"Knockout seems quiet concerned about your mental health." Megatron tells me, "So we will now discuss what is wrong."
I know they can't know anymore about me so I lie, "Nothing."
"I don't believe that for a second, " Knockout claims.
Wow he sure has gotten overprotective, I think to myself.
"I'm sorry but nothing is wrong." I tell them, I can't let them know what is really going on. Besides I thought that I was hiding it really well.

"Well in that case is there anything you need or want from the store?" Megatron asks nicely.
I stare at him in shock before replying, "A notebook, sketchbook or diary. Please," I add as an after statement.
Knockout nods as Megatron dismisses him.
"Alex, what is really wrong. You better tell me now or I will have Sound wave follow you around, " Megatron warns but he can't know how I really feel.
I nod my head and say, "Sorry but I don't know what you are talking about. There is absolutely nothing wrong."
Megatron stares at me before comming someone and soon the faceless robot enters the room.
"Soundwave, you will watch our human to make sure she is safe, "Megatron says as he places me in the hand of the speechless decepticon.
I groan full well knowing I will never be able to keep it from Knockout, Breakdown, Megatron and Soundwave. I am officially screwed. Why do they care anyways.
I groan and lay down in Soundwave's hand as he walks to his office. I wonder if the autobots are looking for me. What if they aren't and i have to stay here forever.
I can't keep up this act.
Sound wave puts me on my bed and words appear of his screen.
And I listen. I lay my head on my pillow and try to calm down.
Usually I will scream and cry for about half an hour but that is not even close to the table. I groan and lay down. Closing my eyes I hope to get at least some sleep without crying.
As I think about innocent Raf and Bee I fall asleep.
I probably shouldn't think of it as good but when I woke up I noticed Soundwave is gone. So I get up and go to the closet Megatron provided along with Knockout.
I get out black work out shorts and a loose red tee shirt. I go to the bathroom and take a quick shower and start to get dressed when I hear the stomping of a Cybertronian. Soundwave, I think.
I finish up and walk out to see the exact bot I thought was out here looking for me.
*Where were you?* The faceless decepticon asked through his mask.
"Bathroom," I state quietly.
He nods, at least I think it is a he. Suddenly I feel my mode swings coming on and feel the sudden urge to cry.
I sniffle and try to hold back the water fall.
That is all it took for the dam that held my emotions to burst. I crumple to the floor bawling my eyes out. Soundwave must have commed Megatron because he came in a few minutes later.
I look up through my tear filled eyes," I'm sorry."
Megatron looks shocked as he sees how broken I actually am.
"What happened?" Megatron asks as he picks me up in his hand.
I force out a laugh, "What happened? What didn't!" I exclaim to him. "I'm a genius legally but I still couldn't help my parents. They were murdered and I can't even find the killer!" I tell the two bots. I see Knockout, Breakdown, and Steve enter the room as I continue," I was forced to deal with that as well as live with my best friend at the time. She abused me, mentally and physically until my uncle came and got me. I fell into depression and anxiety. I finally got out of the situation and was thrown into a cybertronian war! Lucky me!" I exclaim looking the bots that had eyes in the eyes.
"We are sorry," Knockout says looking ashamed.
"It's not your faults," I say quietly finally cried out.
Megatron puts me in Breakdown's hands and leaves the room.

A Bloody Game
Eric Hunter, a boy who took a gamble with his life on the line, soon finds out that the pay off took a very different direction that he thought. Having just awoken from a pre-op only to find himself confused and all alone in a changed world and a hospital consumed by chaos he must do all he can to survive. In a new world where society crumbles and laws are merely pretty words on written paper, how will a boy who has been restricted his whole life live now that there is nothing to hold him back? When everything turns into a zero sum game of dog eat dog, they'll find that The Hunter is an all too willing participant, but he will soon find out that he isn't the only player of this game. First story I'm posting and I don't really have a cool synopsis, sorry everyone, but this story is just another LitRPG apocalypse. I guess the only difference is that the main character isn't a hero. He's not here to save the world, he's not here to make friends, and he's definitely not here to save everyone. He's probably what the villains in other similar stories would be actually. Just writing for fun, advice or constructive critism is welcomed, writing style prone to change. Warning: Incredible amounts of poor grammar, Gore, Profanities, Traumatizing content, and cliches(I plan to have multiple main characters, maybe this is too ambitious for my poor skills, but it seems like it would be fun to try, the other MCs won't show up until later on.) The cover image isn't mine I just found it online. It's a piece by Stephanie Frey This takes inspiration from a lot of great stories on here, but I find the beginning to be most similar to Blood Lust by DefinitelyNotJormlung. Starcraft and Warhammer 40k and survival world rpg by S_Conary will also influenced this (at least that's my plan if I ever get that far or finish this) Also please stay with me until chapter 3. I suck at starting stories, but have been told I get better as I'm further along.

The Solstice Wars
In the grey-cloaked cityscape of modern London, student William Whiteswift has two secrets: the Fae walk among humanity, and they are just as vulnerable as us. His childhood was filled with them; they spawned nightmares and episodes, dreams and obsessions. The nightmares remain, of course, but the fae are his normal. Now, he heals them, for William is gifted. When he saves a faerie -- a humanoid fae -- from an injury he can’t explain, William is forced to let her stay. Finally, he may have taken on more than he can handle; Ainsel could uproot his life in seconds. Instead, she cracks a Pandora’s box of mysteries: someone just flipped her home on its head. And because of that, she did something unspeakable. And somehow, she doesn’t want to hurt him. The longer she stays, though, the crueler his nightmares grow. Worse, governments hide secrets, too: they know of faeries. To them, all fae are monsters fueled by solstices and equinoxes. As the autumn equinox approaches, the culling agency COURT hurries to track Ainsel down. With teams across the United Kingdom and Ireland -- iron-strong despite the region’s history -- they are nearing success. A world away, their country wounded, the faerie leaders hunger for justice. In the looming shadows of war and of Ainsel’s mistake, can a human and a faerie protect each other against their own kind? Could their plight mend rifts between bitter nations and bitterer people? Or will it, like past attempts at peace, shatter? Quick note! I hope you all enjoy the Irish (Irish Gaelic) words here and there! All are defined or explained within the text. This is my chance to show off speaking it at least somewhat decently. Still learning. ;D -K
