Chapter 9. In charge

I was absolutely terrified. Sunstreaker was in a killing spree again and let everyone know he's back and takes back regime. People are afraid of him and he loves the power. Also meant he scared the hell out of me. It feels like he's even more violent than before. Sometimes I don't recognize hi anymore. When I first met him and witnessed him kill a soldier, there was still some sanity left and I couldn't see that small amount of sanity anymore. It feels like he's in his psycho mode 24/7.

Psychopaths are sneaky and Sunstreaker is getting smarter in how to kill people and stalk them. He loves it. For him, it's a sport. I am on his good side... for now but I am completely aware that it can change. I looked up as the door opened and Sunstreaker walked in, covered in a nice layer of blood. "I want you to wash my clothes. It's my favorite shirt and pants and it better be clean tomorrow or I'll hurt you." I took his clothing as he removed his pants and shirt.

While he showered, I started to clean his clothing and eventually, after all the blood was removed, I pushed it in the wasmachine. Sunstreaker laid upon his bed when I walked in again. "Do you think food and water wil walk towards the bed? Get me something and hurry," he snapped. "What do you want?" I asked. "I don't care!" He shouted. I got him something and he snitched it out of my hands. "Sit down." I obeyed his order and watched him eat while sitting on the edge of his bed.

I knew by the look on his fact that he didn't want to be disturbed. It could end in a disaster for me. When he finished, I laid on the other side of him while he was snoozing. I closed my eyes as well but didn't feel comfortable sleeping. "How's your arm?" I weakly opened my eyes only to stare into two icy blue once. "It's fine."

"So you have visited Ratchet like I requested?" He asked dangerously, without any emotion in his question. "I went to the Medbay, but he was in surgery. They told me to come back later. He didn't respond to that. I moved closer towards him until I was able to rest my head on his chest. Sunny didn't seem to mind and even rested his hand on my shoulder.

The next morning, I woke up having a panic spell. I showered and decided to go out for a walk and try not to think about my anxiousness. Soldiers didn't even look at me. There's no single cell in their body to have a conversation with me. Someone trying to mock me off or bully me must have deadwish. Especially lately, Sunstreaker is extremely violent and deadly. Even some Autobots avoided me. I ate on my own, Sideswipe wasn't here either until Optimus joined. "How are you doing?" He asked. "Glad Sunny is back," I replied. "Yeah, I need to have a little chat with you about him. He's not in a very good mood lately, is he?" I shook my head. "No..."

"What's going on?"

"He's mad at himself. He feels like he failed me and could have done more to protect me. He thinks people ruined me. He wants me to change," I mumbled. "He has killed quite some people already so whatever is going on, make it stop." I sighed. "I know, I will have a chat with him when he comes back from his patrol," I said. Optimus gave a small nod. "I bet he wants to see me," I sighed. "People are not happy I brought him back," he said as he walked off.

I know people aren't happy. For some time, they doubted Optimus his decision and wanted him to take Sunny down again. I can't loose him again. Not twice.

An hour later, Sunstreaker caught up with me. He was covered in a thick layer of blood and not looking happy at all. I sighed softly and opened my mouth but Sunstreaker completely freaked out when Ironhide walked in. He threw him against the wall and stabbed him. "Sunstreaker!" I tugged on his arm but got cut in the process as well. "Back off!" Sunstreaker spat. Ironhide wisely did a few steps back, glaring at Sunstreakeer in the process. I saw the hate reflected in his eyes. "Sunstreaker, stop this... please." I grasped his arm but he threw me on the floor. "You stay away from her!" Sunstreaker snapped. "I was't even looking for her!" Ironhide sneered. "I don't want you to be here in general. Piss off!" He hissed.

I hoisted myself up. "You don't tell me what to do, Sunstreaker. I higher placed than you are," Ironhide snarled back. I gulped, that's the worst thing you can say too Sunstreaker. The yellow mech lunged for Ironhide and smashed him down, completely beating him up without mercy. He straddled Ironhide and pressed his knife against his throat. "I am not below you... you are below me. I am not your fucking slave!" He sneered. Ironhide groaned in pain as Sunstreaker got up. "I might kill you in the near future..." he scowled and kicked him before walking off. I looked down at Ironhide and wanted to crouch down but Sunstreaker halted and turned around. "Come here, Skylar!" He snapped. I flinched and walked after Sunstreaker towards the main hanger.

Everyone I passed looked down at the floor. No one shot me a glance and came near me. "Hop in." Sunstreaker pointed at his alt-mode. "Where are we going?" I asked. He didn't reply and drove off. His shirt changed for a clean one and he wiped some blood off his face. He looked at me, still with that psychotic look in his face. It's not his usual creepy self, I saw madness. "Blood anywhere?" He asked. I shook my head, "no..." I mumbled. He looked back at the road and growled as he saw someone crossing the road. "Sunny don't..."

I probably shouldn't have said that. He kicked on his gas and drove against the grandpa crossing the street. The old man wasn't dead either. Sunstreaker hopped out and grabbed the man, dragging the old man towards the backside of his trunk and threw him in. "Project for later," he said and started driving again. My eyes flashed around to see if someone had witnessed it. He drove off again and clawed at his steering wheel, as if his hands were in need of killing someone. I was't sure either what to do, he was so off this world.

He ended up giving me some ice scream and while I was eating, he drove into the forest. "Hop out." I got out and sat down on his hood as he gestured me to sit down. He hated if people ate inside his alt-mode. The mech looked around for a moment before he walked over to his trunk and threw the grandpa out. I felt horrible. The man was barely awake as Sunstreaker started to dig a hole. When it was deep enough, he threw the man in. "Sunstreaker he's still alive. You can't do this."

The mech turned towards me, a sneer spread over his face. He threw the shovel on the ground and walked up to me. "Do you want to end up next to him, Skylar?" He snapped. "I have to live with it... I have already seen so many things," I whispered. He hit me and threw me on the ground. "Than this shouldn't matter," he snapped and threw the man in. I couldn't look at it, nor listening to the poor man's cries. I was't even able to continue eating my ice cream. Before, I could barely eat but now, my stomach had twisted in horror.

When he finished, he turned towards me. "You are overreacting," he snapped. "Why? I am only trying to tell that I hate seeing this. I can't stop you, but you force me to watch and I can't handle that. When we met... I was able to cope with it, but after what Dreadraid made me do... I just can't do this anymore." Sunstreaker cocked his head slightly to the side. "What are you trying to say?" He snapped. I shrugged, "you changed... and not in a good manner. I don't know where it comes from, if it's because of Dreadraid or because you don't trust your fellow Autobots anymore but... you are completely walking over me... you don't look at me the same as you used to do."

"But you are mine." He glared daggers at me. "You don't treat me that way... what is it we have? Are we friends? Are we lovers? What is it you want? Why don't you talk to me about the things that bothers you? Why don't you give me the answers I am asking for?" I asked. He sucked in a breath, "'I haven't changed..." he said. "Yes, you have. I don't recognize you anymore. The sunny I know wasn't on the hunt 24/7 or hurt me," I said. He grunted and approached me. "Is it true? Did you kill Optimus's separate and sparkling?" I asked. He narrowed his eyes at me, "Whiplash and Dreadraid told me but I want you to confirm it... is it true or false?" I asked.

There was a long deadly silence. He was staring straight through my soul. "It is true, I kill them." I gave a small nod. "Wait, where are you going?" He snapped and walked after me. "I need some time alone."
"Skylar! Come on. It doesn't matter..." I turned around. "It does matter... everything you do matters and has an impact on people's life! Not just their life but also mine!" I shouted. He flinched a little bit. "You are not the mech I fell in love with anymore and that hurts. I finally have you back but I feel like there is a distance between us bigger than from here to Cybertron and back. I don't feel safe and comfortable around you anymore... sort things out for yourself, Sunstreaker..." I turned around and vanished.
