Ok, so while I was going through my stories on a different device that I try to use as a place to backup my stories (but I often forget to do so, so the stories on there are ages behind, but at least it's something), I found this, which interestingly enough, I had just been thinking about earlier.

Just a note, the way I write my journal entries, there are usually no separate paragraphs, and there are a lot of long sentences, so I tried to break it up into short paragraphs to make it easier for you guys to read. I left everything as it was in the entry, except for the paragraph separations, so if there's something that doesn't make sense, just ask about it.

Also, this was before I watched Dark of the Moon, and I had no idea that there was a Sideswipe in the Bayverse. If I had known, this probably would've been a lot different. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyway, just a random thing that I decided to share for no particular reason. 😁

--------

Dear journal, last night (and this morning) I had a weird/cool dream. It was about Transformers, but they were Bayverse style. Optimus was in it, but he was a little different than his Bayverse self, Bumblebee was in it, but he was different than his Bayverse self, and he beeped like he does in Prime instead of using the radio like in the movies, Ratchet was in it, and he was the same as he is in the movies, and Sideswipe was in it, and he was the RiD one, only Bayverse-ified. He looked...interesting, but actually not that bad, and his vehicle mode was really cool, and for some reason he couldn't talk at all, not even with beeps like Bee could, and for some reason, everyone else called him Nightside (until later). They also called someone else a different name, but I don't remember who or what the name was. Animated Prowl was in it, and although he was Bayverse-ified, he didn't exactly look it. He was still a motorcycle, and he was still skinny, but he was a buffed kind of skinny, and his motorcycle mode was bigger too. Barricade and Megatron and some other Decepticons were also in it, all in their Bayverse style, and the Nemesis was Bayverse-ified.

Anyway, I don't remember exactly how it started, but I was at some kind of party at someone's house, and we went outside to do stuff, and then for some reason Barricade and a couple other Decepticons showed up, and me and some other person hid behind a tree, and Barricade started to tauntingly threaten us, and pretended to play hide-and-seek with us.

He started shooting at the tree that me and the other person were behind, and it split in half, so we ran to other trees, but a smaller Decepticon got in my way and clawed at me, but I avoided it, and then some neighbors peeked over their fence to see what was going on, and I yelled for them to hide, and then Barricade laughed and told us "puny humans" to run, so I turned to look where he was looking, and the neighbors were coming through a gate in the fence into the yard we were in, and it looked like they were being mind controlled or something, so I ran through a gate on the other side of the yard, and I just kept running through yards until I got to a road.

I don't exactly remember what happened after that, but somehow I met up with some other people, and I saw a picture with Bumblebee's legs in the background, although they looked more like a G1 toy Bumblebee's legs, and Optimus helped Prowl scan a vehicle mode, and somehow Chief and Kade Burns showed up, and I think Chief was driving a police car, but Kade was driving Sideswipe, and somehow a whole bunch of cars crashed and got piled up (and somehow were stacked up semi-neatly), and then another police chief called Kade and Chief and asked them to report in, and Kade was about to tell him about the Transformers when Barricade showed up, so he got out of Sideswipe and ran, and I don't know what happened to Chief, but Bumblebee and Sideswipe transformed and then Barricade started attacking them, and they were able to get rid of Barricade for a little bit, and they transformed and started to go back to Optimus, when I stopped Sideswipe and hopped in.

Just then, Barricade came back, and Sideswipe transformed with me still inside and fought Barricade. The inside of Sideswipe was kind of like how the inside of the Rescue Bots are, only there were no windows. But there was a dashboard monitor thingy in there, and while he fought, I asked him if he was Sideswipe, and he said yes. He apparently didn't know very many English words (at least not in writing/text/whatever-you-call-words-that-appear-on-a-computer-screen-thing), so his answers were simple, like yes or no, for example. I wondered aloud why everyone called him Nightside, then I said that he was actually an okay Bot, even if he was a punk, and he was like, "Hey!"

Then Sideswipe swung Barricade around and did what Bulkhead did to the trooper in Darkness Rising part 4, when he picked up the trooper, swung it over his head, and then slammed it on the ground. Then, as he was about to get up, we all got teleported. I told Sideswipe that I didn't know he could do that, and he answered that he didn't do it. Then he got up and looked around, and realized that it was the Nemesis.

Barricade got up and walked over to Megatron, and talked to him for a bit and then pointed to Sideswipe. Then Megatron said something back, and Barricade walked over to Sideswipe again. He told him to let the human (me) out, or else we both would die right then and there. Sideswipe reluctantly transformed and let me out, and then transformed back to bot mode.

Barricade grabbed me and was going to do something, but Sideswipe took me back and put me in his mouth to protect me. Surprisingly (not really), it was dry, there was no tongue, and it was solid. No throat hole or something. Although I did notice a speaker thingy, but I didn't really pay attention to it.

On the outside, Barricade was trying to get Sideswipe's mouth open, and Sideswipe was resisting, so Barricade finally just shot Sideswipe several times in the chest, and it made a hole all the way to his spark chamber. I heard the shots, and pounded on his teeth to let me out, but he didn't, but when the shots made their way to his spark chamber, he passed out and his mouth loosened enough for me to push it open and get out.

When I got out, Barricade was laughing evilly, and he said that he would leave me with the body, because it would get thrown out anyway. I climbed into the hole and slid down to his spark chamber. His spark was still there, but it was very small. It felt cold, so I decided to try to keep it warm to keep it alive. I curled up around it, and slowly, his spark grew bigger, but he still didn't wake up. Then, I felt his body being moved, so I grabbed onto the sides of his spark chamber, which shocked me a little, but since I was still touching his spark, it helped it grow more.

Then Sideswipe was thrown off the side of the ship, and we crashed in the middle of a forest. I stayed inside, and I fell asleep on top of his spark. Soon, Sideswipe woke up, and he rubbed his head and looked around, and as he stood up, I fell out, but I was still asleep, so he transformed and put me in the back seat, and then drove to where the other Autobots were (which was in the middle of a road for some reason, and then it somehow changed to a clearing in the forest).

Ratchet put me in some kind of healing stasis thingy, just in case (because apparently Cybertronian sparks are extremely cold, although they need heat to endure...?). When I woke up, I asked where Sideswipe was, but no one knew who I was talking about, so I looked around until I saw him, and then I pointed to him, and then everyone was like, "Oh! Ok." (not exactly, but I don't remember what they really said).

Then I walked over to him and asked him what he was doing, and he grabbed a stick and started writing in the dirt. At first he tried writing in English, but he couldn't figure it out, so he wrote something in Autobot (and of course, I don't remember what it said), and I surprised him by reading it aloud, so he asked (in writing) how I knew Autobot, and I told him that I'm a huge Transformers fan (and that's how I knew his name), and that once I found out that there was such thing, me and my sisters started learning it, and that about a day later, I got a Transformers toy with Autobot on some of the stickers, so I was able to read them.

Then I don't remember what happened next, but somehow me and Sideswipe were out for a drive out in the country, and he was speeding, and there was a police car waiting around there that started coming after us, and I immediately scooted into the drivers seat, and then I wondered if the police car was Barricade, so I asked Sideswipe if he had a holographic driver, and on his dash monitor thingy he said (in Autobot) that he did, so I asked him if he could project it into the passenger seat, and he did.

Then the policeman came up, so I rolled down my window, and the policeman asked me if I knew why he pulled me over, so I answered that we had been going a little too fast, and then he asked to see my drivers license, so I handed it over (because apparently I had one), and then he asked to see the insurance papers, so I paused, unsure what to say next, and then I looked over at the holographic driver, and I looked back at the officer while the avatar opened the glovebox and pretended to dig around in it, and I told the officer that this wasn't my car, it was Mr. something's car (I don't remember what I called him. Either Mr. Spike or Mr. Sam), and that he was looking for the insurance papers, and then the avatar smacked his forehead, and I asked why he did that, so he made some motions, pointing to the glovebox and pretending there was a paper and then gesturing to the cop and then smacking his forehead again. The policeman asked why he didn't talk, so I said because he was mute, and had been for a long time.

Then the policeman gave us a warning and walked back to his car. Then we drove off and somehow didn't notice that the police car was still following us. Then we had to stop, because Sideswipe was low on energon, so me and his avatar got out and went to the trunk and got out what looked like a gas can, and then filled up what's normally the gas tank on a regular car (I don't know what it is in a Cybertronian, cuz my dream didn't tell me), and somehow I (as the person dreaming, not my person in the dream) was seeing from the POV of the policeman, and since he was behind us, he saw what we were doing, and he thought he saw some glowing blue stuff on the rim of the gas can nozzle.

Then it went back to my POV, and we got in the car and started back on our way, and then somehow the police car flipped over and landed against a dead tree nearby and caught on fire, so we stopped and got out to see if we could help the police officer.

I don't remember if we did get to, or if the officer was just a hologram, but either way, Barricade showed up and picked both me and Sideswipe's avatar and started walking away from Sideswipe, and Barricade said that he was making sure neither of us were holographic avatars (because apparently in my dream, avatars can only be projected a certain distance away from a Bot), and every time Sideswipe made his avatar moved, he had to transfer some of his consciousness into the avatar, so he transferred all of his consciousness to his avatar, and when he got past the certain distance, the avatar didn't go away, although the connection between the avatar and the Bot was severed.

Once Barricade was content that we were regular humans, he threw us to the side and transformed and drove away. Then we got up and brushed ourselves off, and we walked to the car, and somehow I knew that Sideswipe was stuck in his avatar, and I taught him how to write a few words in English, and then we drove back to the other Autobots and I explained that Sideswipe was now "human" and how it happened, and then sometime later, we were in the car and got teleported back to the Nemesis, but I told Sideswipe to act like we'd never been there before, so we got out of the car and were looking around at all the huge stuff, and then Barricade showed up from out of nowhere, and then in real life, dad came to wake me up, so that's the end.

Omw I just realized how many times I used the word "somehow", and how long some of my sentences are. Wow. XD

And yes, I broke the fourth wall in my dream. My mind is strange, but it works, somehow. Lol, I did it again!
