Tunnel Vision
(A/N I choose Tunnel Vision becoz that is the place where Nova spared the 13th target from long time ago. So, I remake the chapter that will surprise you. I'm doing two POV so you'll understand.)
There was something strange going on at New York. And I should know strange, I do declare myself to be the strangest girl on the block!
Oh maybe I should introduce myself.....
Hi! My name is Lillian Cornell but my father only calls me Lily. I'm 6 years old and I have a natural purple hair color. It gives it a certain flair to it. I usually swap out the hairband in my hair since I'm obsessed with cartoons keeping their hair this way. My eyes are an unusual shade of red, making some people believe I'm not natural. And that's right, I am nothing natural! I also have my black teddy bear with me all the time, his name is Teddy. I'm into fairytales and mythology, even monsters. But You know the best part is that I would never thought I get to meet the blue fairy again.
By the way, the reason I called her blue fairy is becoz of her hair, they were glowing before I met her. Oh! You wanted to know my connection to the blue fairy!
Well I've known the blue fairy for a such a long time. I've always visited her at the park all that time and she has always been there for me, even grant my wish. She's the best friend I ever had and she was the only one who can call my nickname too until I haven't seen her for 2 years now. I waited for her and leave her treats at the park everyweek but she never came until now. Sadly, It's going to be the last time I'll see her.
So what do I have to do with my involvement?
Well...you see....one afternoon I happened to run into her on my visit with my father's friend, Uncle Vogel who works in the Subway.....
=============================================================================
Lily POV
My father and I went back to New York for a business meeting since that used to be where we live but now we moved to California for no reason. I remembered my daddy met a man in black suit, telling us that we needed protection. Becoz of that, I missed the park where I met the blue fairy but you know at least I was happy my wish came true that I get to spend time with my daddy. I wanted to thank her before we moved but she was no longer there anymore. I didn't get the chance to say goodbye to her.
Today, My daddy introduced me to his cousin, Uncle Vogel who is one of the most abso-freakin-lutely dedicated conspiracy theorists there are, and he's not afraid to say it. From giant snakes to, he knows the truth the media's trying to conceal: subterranean aliens are amassing armies to subjugate humanity. He works as a street sweeper in the New York subway underground. ALthough, he is like who shared the same thing but similar ways.
My father told me to spend time with his while he was on meeting. I bought jellybeans with me becoz I told my daddy its for snack but to be honest I was planning to leave it at the park one last time in case if the blue fairy comes again. My daddy scolded me to never leave treats at the park again. I told Uncle Vogel about the blue fairy but he said fairies don't exist. Beside, he's the type of guy who doesn't believe in fairytales.
Anyway, I was in the subway, riding on the train with my Uncle, listening all about the aliens and stuff. I let out yawned while hugging my black teddy bear until I heard a high pitched sound, even Uncle Vogel must have heard it too. "Uncle, Did you hear that?" I said. Uncle Vogel stopped and said, "Hm....It sounds like drilling from track 5, Maybe we must be hearing things."
"But it wouldn't hurt to check, right?" I said with a puppy look. UNcle Vogel couldn't resist my charm as he said, "Well, we could....investigate."
As we followed the sound, however the moment we were going there until it became quiet. "Huh the noise just stop....I wonder who would be drilling here?"
Uncle Vogel switched track as we tried to get to track 5 to investigate when I felt the train stop. I looked up to see Vogel narrowed his eyes on the front window as he turn on the headlights, grabbed the megaphone and went outside. I peeked over to see who it was which turns out to be 3 teenagers but the girl in hood seems so familiar.
Nova POV
Optimus looked over everyone present in the room before he began talking. "If we are to have any hope of recovering the Iacon relics before the Decepticons do, we must divide our resources."
Ratchet frowned at him, "But, Optimus, when it comes to numbers, we are already at a grave disadvantage."
Optimus looked over at him, "Under the circumstances, swiftness of action is paramount. This is one race that we absolutely cannot afford to lose."
Ratchet heard his computer beeping and walked over to investigate. A few seconds later he turned to face everyone. "Here's a twist. It would appear that the Decepticons have retreated from Manhattan."
Arcee motioned with both of her arms. "They just up and left?"
Optimus shook his head. "It is more likely that Megatron has already set course for the second set of coordinates, having dispatched a unit to this relic's underground location."
Arcee frowned, not buying it. "Without busting up a city blow to get to it?"
Jack looked up at the realization, "They used subway tunnels. New York has a whole network of them running beneath the city."
Optimus nodded, "Since the human population no longer seems to be directly threatened, maintaining our disguise will be necessary. Arcee, Bumblebee, you are the best choice to navigate through such a densely populated area."
"Optimus," Jack interjected, "New York has more than eight million people, the odds of being spotted by at least one of them are pretty high. Even if they are headed underground."
Arcee looked at him, "Where are you going with this?"
"You're gonna need a face man. Someone who can speak on their behalf....a human who can run interference if their cover gets blown."
Miko just scowled at Jack before saying, "Well I've actually been in subway stations. I grew up in a major metropolis, unlike Mr. I've never been outside Jasper, Nevada."
Jack motioned to himself and Nova. "We've been to Cybertron."
"Cybertron doesn't have subway...does it?" Miko asked. I rolled my eyes and answered to her, "Yes it does."
"Agent Fowler's field experience makes him our best candidate." Optimus said turning to Fowler.
"Banana fish!" He shouted, from his gurney. Ratchet walked over, "If he weren't still recovering from his encounter with the Decepticon warship."
"Which we survived, without incident." Miko pointed out.
Nova raised an eyebrow at her. "Almost."
Optimus gave in. "Very well. Miko, Jack and Nova will accompany Arcee and Bumblebee."
Miko grinned and hugged Nova. "Yes!" She groaned and rubbed her face. "Oh jeez."
"Initiate transport, and triangulate coordinates of the other three relics." Optimus ordered.
NEW YORK
We made it to the alleyway of New York, I looked out the window at the gigantic city. I let out a sad sigh becoz this place reminded me of my mission where I target the 13th. I will never forget the past memories that haunt me for the rest of my life. I was in deep thought until it was interrupted by Miko's amazement when she keep movieng around.
I pushed Miko back in her seat, rolling her eyes. "Miko, please keep the seatbelt on or I will make you."
Miko stuck out her tongue at her, buckling herself in again. "Fine, mom."
I groaned before Bumblebee questioned, "So how do we get underground?" I sighed as i instructed him to head to the bridge, much to MIko's confusion. Bee drove up to the edge and he could see the construction site leading into the tunnels.
"Huh, This works!"He honked his horn for Arcee. Miko leaned out the window and grinned at Jack. "Check it out! Construction, A fact of life in the big city. Way to go, Nova." Miko said.
"Um gee thx." I replied.
"Hold on!" Bee then drove over the edge and fell to the ground. It didn't shake the humans too much but it was still a little jolt. "You okay?"
"I'm fine."
"Peachy!"
Nova got out when they were inside the tunnel, looking around. She noticed Bee going to step on the third rail and quickly pulled on his hand. "Stop!"
Bee quickly followed her, beeping curiously. "What?"
Jack frowned, keeping away from the rail. "You almost stepped on the third rail. It carries electricity to power the subway trains."
Miko nodded, "One touch and zap! You're fried!"
Bumblebee beeped as he nodded, dancing around the rails so he wouldn't touch the third one. He just ended up looking like a goofball. "Got it!"
Miko said to us,"He must have learned about that on TV or something."
Nova ended up walking in step with Bumblebee, behind the other three. Arcee was in front with the device that was tracking the coordinates. After a few minutes Jack looked up. "Are we getting any closer?"
Arcee looked over at him as she kept walking. "Triangulating the coordinates is one thing but figuring out how to reach them through this maze is another." Everyone paused as they heard a distant screeching sound. Bee knelt down by a smaller tunnel where he could hear the drilling coming through. He motioned at the others to come over. Arcee kneel down and frowned. "Drilling."
Miko ran down the tunnel. "It's coming from this way!"
Jack gasped, "Miko!"
Nova ran after her, "Sheesh! Miko!"
Jack ran after them, "Hold up, guys!"
Nova jumped down and stood next to Miko, frowning softly. "Miko.."
Jack jumped down behind her, "Miko what is your -"
"Hold it right there!" A construction worker was shining his lights on them, walking towards them. I heard Miko and Jack in unison mumbled scrap as I placed hood over my head from not showing my face.
The construction worker talked over a megaphone. "What are you kids doing down here?"
Miko grinned at him, "We're on a field trip with our school. But we got lost."
"Oh really?" They could hear the sarcasm.
Miko nodded. "I told him we should stay with our group, but Leonard here - insisted we search for fossils. Even Mia tried to change his mind."
Jack shrugged, playing along. "My bad." Nova huffed at him, "Yeah, your bad Leonard."
Miko walked closer, "We want to go home, can you help us, Mister.."
"Vogel." He stepped closer, lowering his megaphone. "But you can call me Vogel." He motioned to his ride. "So, ever ride a sweeper train?"
We exchange glances before Miko and Jack went ahead. I looked back when I felt someone poke her. I saw Bee and Arcee staring at us worriedly. I stepped back a little so I could whisper to them. "We'll leave with him so you should be free to search. We'll be fine."
Arcee whispered quietly. "Stay together until we come get you."
I nodded before following the others onto the sweeper train. "who are they, Uncle?" a cute voice said. We turned to see a little girl with purple hair, holding a black bear. Vogel said, "They're just 3 teens who got lost." He turned to us, placing a hand on her head. "This is Lillian, my little niece."
"Hiya, Teddy says Hi too." Lillian said, waving her teddy's paw. My friends were awed by her adorable look however for some reason, I felt like I've seen her somewhere before.
Miko, Jack and Nova stood around Vogel, listening to him going on about the history of the tunnels. It was fascinating.
"And this section was added in the '30s as part of a public-works project."
Miko yawned, "Fascinating."
"But these old tunnels have a dark side, too. Strange creatures have been said to lurk down here. Giant snakes, albino alligators....."
"Even mole men." Lillian piped in. Vogel smiled at her, rummaging her hair as she giggled while swatting his hand. Nova tilted her head. "Well then."
Jack turned to him, "But those are just people who live down here because they have no place else to go, right?"
"That's what the media wants you to believe. But I say, they're from outer space."
I was about to listen more until I was silently dragged to an exit door on the sweeper train, Miko motioning Jack over.
"I'm telling you, Area 51's got nothin' on this place. The aliens are down here, building up their army, plotting to use us humans as slave labor."
I jumped down with Miko, steadying themselves as Jack jumped too. I shook my head and said, "I think working in these tunnels has drove him insane."
Miko laughed, "If he only knew."
I looked around and said, "So. Now we have to either find the 'bots or the exit." before we began walking until I felt someone tugged my sleeve.
"Can I come too?"
We turned around to see Lillian, holding my sleeve with her adorable look. 'Oh Scrap.'
Lily POv
While I was focus on my Uncle, I couldn't help but wonder about that hooded girl. I felt like I want to be closed to her. As my Uncle continue explaining, I notice the boy silently sneaked over to the exit as they jumped off the train. My curiosity got the best of me as I stared at my Uncle before I silently head to the exit. I jumped off before turning to the train that already left. I kind regret for leaving my Uncle as I turned to see 3 teens were about to leave before I run to them and grabbed the hooded girl's sleeve.
"Can I come too?" I asked cutely
They were surprised that I was with them. Miko whispered to Jack, "Dude, What do we do? we're gonna be so much trouble if she finds out." Jack shrugged, not knowing what to do. I tilted my head and asked, "Are you guys exploring? What are you guys looking for?"
Both of them don't know what to respond until the hooded girl knelt in front of me. "Why did you follow us? You know your Uncle is going to worry if your missing." She questioned me. I lowered my head and said sadly, "Sorry, when I saw you leave.....I just don't want to say goodbye. So...."
She looked at me in the eyes, seeing my worried expression and I felt like she understood me. She seems very familiar to me becoz of her blue eyes. Whenever I look at her sparkling eyes, I feel like I was being drawn into her, she remind me of blue fairy. The hooded girl ponder for a minute before standing up. "I'll let you come but only if you behave until I return you back to your Uncle, Understood?" She told me. My eyes brightened and said, "Really, Thank you." as I wrapped my arms around her waist. I felt a startled from her before she patted me on the head.
The boy whispered to her, "Are you sure we're bringing her along?" The hooded girl replied, "We can't just leave her here. Don't worry I'll make sure she doesn't let go of me." As she hold my hand and we began to explore the tunnels.
Nova POV
I don't know what I make of the girl but I feel like I didn't want to let go. I know I seen her before but where? I tried to recall it which it showed me some flash images of New York, the park and a little girl in scarf which there was a black mist obscuring the child's face before I was back in the tunnel again.
Miko and Jack stopped when they came to a fork in the tunnels. Jack turned to the other two. "Uh..?"
Miko turned and ran down one of them. "This way!"
Jack ran after her. "How do you know!?" He stopped Miko and frowned down at her. "Miko, let's think this through."
Miko slapped his hand away, huffing. "Why, 'cause you think I don't know what I'm doing?"
I frowned at her. "We just don't want to get more lost down here."
Miko looked at Jack, mocking him. "I'm Jack! I think I'm so smart and know better than everyone else." She then turned to Nova and narrowed her eyes. "I'm Nova! I have cool superpowers and I'm so strong and I got to go to Cybertron!"
I blinked at her upset look, 'Was she still upset about that?'
Jack huffed back at her. "Miko! I do not think I'm better than anyone!"
I placed my left arm at my hip while I was holding Lillian on my right hand. "If you hate me for that then why didn't you say something to me earlier?"
Miko turned away from her, crossing her arms. "I've been holding it in."
"Miko. You're just as important as any of the other members of Team Prime."
Jack nodded. "Just yesterday, you helped take down a psychotic Decepticon warship! This isn't a competition!"
I winced as a bright light was shone on them, Vogel glaring at them. "Lost, huh? Lillian, you are in big trouble once we get back." He scolded at her before turning to us, " As for you three, you are going to have to explain yourselves to the New York transit authority. "
I looked down at Lillian then at both of them. "I think we should tell him the truth."
Jack looked over at Vogel. "Right... the truth is.. we lost our dog."
Vogel didn't buy it. "You're wasting your breath."
Miko shook her head. "She mean The real truth." She walked closer to Vogel as she spoke. "We're trying to prevent aliens from digging up a powerful ancient relic so they can't use it to destroy our planet."
Lillian and Vogel were surprised when Miko told them. Lillian let go of my hand and run to her Uncle, "See? I told you I heard something while we were driving."
"Your right.....I swore we heard something weird and high-pitched earlier today. Something that wasn't the crew drilling over on track 5." Vogel pointed out.
We all quickly got on the sweeper train, Vogel flying towards where he heard the strange noises. A few minutes later they began to spot something down the track. Lillian exclaimed, "Mole men!"
"Metal ones!" Vogel added.
Miko corrected, "Actually, Decepticons."
Jack clenched his fists, "And they have Arcee and Bumblebee!"
I turned to the adult. "Vogel? This thing have another gear?"
"Abso-Freakin'-Lutely!" Vogel shifted a gear down, the train flying even faster, right at Knock Out. It hit him, causing him to be pinned against the wall as the train past, his metal armor screeching. Vogel tried to slow them down but the gears weren't working. "Not good.. Brake line must have been torched!"
Jack looked panicked, "We can't stop?!"
Miko looked around nervously. "No big deal. These tracks go 'round for miles, right, Vogel?"
"Not this one." He looked down as his tracking system began beeping wildly.
I held onto the wall. "And there's no way to stop this thing?"
Miko groaned. "I'm really starting to hate trains!"
Lillian wrapped her teddy tightly in fear and said to me, "I'm scared...." I looked down at her, she was extremely scared. When I stared at her, another flash came which it shows a little girl still with an obscured face who was held by someone and mouthed, "...I'm scared." With tears streaming down the child's face before the image was replaced with Lillian's frightened look. I didn't want to alarmed her as I kneel down to her, placing my hand on her shoulder and assured, "Don't worry, everything is going to be alright. I promised to you that I won't let anything happen to you."
Lillian stared at me for a minute before she slowly nodded to me. I gave an assuring smile until we felt something heavy landed on the roof of the train. "Whoah!"
Vogel looked at the kids, "What was that?" Everyone ran in the back to see it was only Arcee. Vogel grabbed an Axe and went to chop at Arcee. "Welcome to Earth!"
I quickly grabbed the Axe, tearing it away from the large man with ease. She laid it down on the ground and stepped in front of Arcee. "No!"
Miko nodded. "She's one of the good guys!"
Jack turned around, "Arcee, the brakes are shot!"
Arcee looked up at Vogel. "Is there any kind of emergency override?"
Vogel shook his head. "N-no, Ma'am! But there is a switch-track control up ahead. If you can just adjust the pole rod..." He saw Arcee look around and continued. "You'll know it when you see it. It'll re-route us to another line." Vogel watched as Arcee transformed and raced ahead of them. "Did she just turn into a motorcycle?"
I turned around when I heard the familiar screeching sound. "Oh you have got to be kidding me."
Vogel looked at the kids. "And that would be?"
Jack looked back at him, "Trouble."
I nodded. "Huge trouble." I watched as Jack and Vogel went back up front. I turned to Miko and Lillian as I gently rubbed her arm.
"Uh oh!" Arcee had broken the gear shift but was laying in the track, using her feet to try and push in the track. At the last second she got it in, diving out of the way.
Jack grinned, pumping his fist in the air. "Yes!"
Miko grinned, "Sweet!"
I slumped against Vogel's seat, sighing. "We never have a normal day, huh?" Miko smiled at them. "We're in the clear!"
Vogel looked at them, "Still need a way to stop, beside slamming into a wall." Lillian said, "Um...Uncle Vogel." pointing at the front window
As I looked up what she was poitning until I saw Bee standing in the way.
"WATCH OUT!"
"BUMBLEBEE!"
I winced and covered Lillian to cover her eyes. We waited a few seconds waiting for a crash but nothing happened. I turned and saw him phasing through the train. "What in the...." I jolted while holding Lillian as we did end up hitting Knock Out though. He fell to the ground, unintentionally stopping the train. Miko hopped off the train and ran over to her. "BumbleBee?!"
Bumblebee nodded at her. "I'm fine!"
Miko grinned up at him, "Dude!" We all got off from the train and head to BumbleBee. Jack frowned as Arcee pulled up, transforming. "How did you not get mashed?"
"This is a phase shifter!"
Arcee translated for the others. "Phase shifter." She moved her arm through Bumblebee's chest. "Handy when you need to pass through solid objects, or vice versa."
Bumblebee gently removed the device. "This is great!"
Lillian POv
I giggled at his beeping noise, even though I couldn't understand. Then, I notice I wasn't holding my Teddy. I looked around to see my Teddy lying beside the train. I must have dropped it when I hopped off the train. I ran back to get my Teddy as I was about to head back until I didn't notice the red robot yelled which startled me. It caught everyone's attention as He pushed the train towards them, scowling at the team. "You scratch my face, I scratch yours!"
Nova's POV
Bumblebee stopped the train before both aimed their blasters at Knock Out. The Decepticon scowled at us until my eyes diverted to Lillian who happens to be closed. Vogel noticed it before shouted, "Lillian, RUN!!!!"
Which caught Knouck out's attention as he saw Lillian below him before she tried to run until she was grabbed and was lifted from the ground, dropping her teddy bear. We had a horrifed expression on our face when we saw Lillian in his clutches. "UNCLE VOGEL?!!! " She cried out.
"Lillian." Vogel said worriedly.
"Hand over the Relic! Or this little fleshy gets a bad makeover!" Knockout threathened, morphing his servo into a drill mode, pointing at Lillian.
All of us didn't move, not wanting Lillian to get hurt. I stared at Lillian's terried expression, her body was shaking and her breathing non-stop. She tried to squirmed herself free until she let out a squeaked when Knockout squeazed her from silencing her. Lillian looked at me whose face were a mix of fear and terror. Her tears forming, streaming down her face, trying to call for help until she screamed, "BLUE FAIRY!! HELP!!!!"
That's when I felt an urge in my head the moment she said that. Finally, the last image I saw of the little girl, the mist that obscured her face suddenly disappeared to reveal to be young Lillian from a long time ago who was held by someone and mouthed, "...I'm scared." With tears streaming down the her face. As the image was changed back to Knockout holding Lillian hostage.
"Li-ly..."I muttered before I yelled to her. "LILY!!!!"
Becoz of that I remembered who she was if it weren't for my instinct kicked in as I rushed to her, much to everyone's protest. Knockout saw me before I jumped, letting my hair out from my hood as my body began to glow brightly which blinded him.
Lillian POV
I was so scared that big bad bot is going to hurt me. I tried to beg to help me which they stood there helplessly. I didn't know what to do until I called out the only thing that came to me. I shut my eyes and screamed, "BLUE FAIRY!! HELP!!!!" I thought the blue fairy won't come and save me until.....
"LILY!!!!"
I slowly opened my eyes to see the hooded girl running towards me as she jumped, I saw her hood fell off, revealing her blue hair. My eyes widened when I saw her body glow which almost blinded us. I looked carefully only to see her wings spread out from her back and she was in a different form.
"Blue....Fairy?" I said in awe before the light dimmed out. The Bad bot looked up only to get hit by a hammer on her hand which caused him to drop me. I screamed while falling until I felt someone caught me. My eyes was still shut until a familiar voice assured me, "It's alright, Lily."
I slowly opened my eyes which I saw the blue robot who was carrying me. I saw her helmet transformed into her real face, revealing her hair out and said calmly, "Your safe now."
I gasped when I recalled from my memories, the flash image showed of the blue fairy who saved me before it was replaced with a robot girl. My eyes twinkled when I recognize her face, "BLue Fairy."
She tilted her head and said with a gentle smile, "Hello, Lily."
My face brightened as I hugged her neck and sobbed, "Blue Fairy....I knew you come. I was scared, That Bad bot tried to hurt me and..and...and...."
She felt my shaking body as she caressed my hair gently and said, "Sh Sh there there It's alright now, Lily. No one is going to hurt you." before she glared back at the Bad Bot who just got up. She walked towards him while holding me. "HEY KNOCKOUT." She called
The Bad bot looked up at the Blue Fairy and saw she was extremely angry. "Frustrating about your paint job is one thing....BUT THREATENING A CHILD IS UNFORGIVABLE?!!! " She said, pointing her hammer at him with a dangerous look.
I noticed the Bad Bot seem scared all of a sudden even though I looked up and couldn't see her face while she was facing at him.
"IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE, I SUGGEST YOU RETREAT OR I'LL DO MORE DAMAGE THAN YOUR STUPID FINISH. AND BELIEVE ME, I'LL MAKE IT WORST."
When she said that last part, he seem frightened before he transformed and sped away into the tunnel, although I saw one of his wheels fell of which made me giggled.
Nova's POV
My body relaxed as Knock Out only sped away, his finish looking like scrap. I unequipped my hammer and said, "Good riddance." While I stood there hugging Lily, I didn't notice the stunned look on Vogel's face when he saw my robot mode. Vogel stuttered, pointing at me, "She's uh uh....."
Miko said to him, "Yeah, she's a robot, half robot I mean." I placed Lily on the ground before picking up her teddy bear and said, "I believe this belong to you." Lily's face brightened as she hugged her teddy bear while I petted her hair. I looked up to see Jack, Miko and Vogel walked up to us. She turned to her Uncle and said, "Uncle Vogel, this is the Blue Fairy that I told you about."
My body tensed when she call me that, Vogel stared at me in disbelief while my friends gave me a confused look. I shrugged helplessly of my nickname.
Jack looked over at Vogel and Lily before looking up at the two 'bots. "They know. Do we have to take them with us?"
Vogel looked up at them, "To the mother ship?"
Lily added, "FairyLand?!"
I bit my lip so I wouldn't laugh but I did grin a bit. Miko smirked as she looked up, "I think I have a work-around." She got out her phone and called someone. "Agent Fowler's got this."
After Fowler managed to talk over the phone, Vogel looked up and grinned. "Thank you, sir." He handed the phone back and smiled at them. "So you folks will be in touch?"
Miko grinned. "Abso-Freakin'-Lutely!"
Arcee looked down at them, "But until then, we need to maintain complete radio silence."
I went over to the train sweeper as I used my power to fix the damaged which it was glowing before it dimmed out. Everyone were surprised that the train sweeper was back to normal, with no evidence of the damage except the glass window. Lily said, "Wow. She can do magic?!"
I turned to Vogel, "Anyone asked what happened, just say some of the falling rocks fell on it. Got it."
Vogel nodded and saluted to us. "It's been an honor."
I saluted to him in return as we turned around and walked away. Jack grinned over at Miko. "Good call, face." I patted her shoulder and said, "See. I told you that you were important."
Miko smiled. "Eh, I understand big-city people who spend way too much time below ground."
Arcee looked over at Bee. "One relic down, three to go. Let's hope the others are having similar results."Bee nodded to her.
As we were about to leave until I felt someone grabbed my hand which turned out to be Lily. "Your leaving?" She said sadly. I stared back at my friends before I knelt down to her. "That's right....I have to leave becoz I have another duty to fulfill."
"Don't go, Blue Fairy." Lily said, as her tears began to formed in her eyes. "I don't want to say goodbye. After meeting you for so long and now your leaving. If you go, I won't see you again."
I couldn't say anything at first, I only stared at Lily closely as I felt an old, familiar feeling clutch to my heart. And after a moment, I realized that for the first time since I could remember, I felt sorrow. It made me feel warm to hear her words, but it also hurt me terribly...
"Oh Lily, please don't be sad," I finally whispered, saying it to myself as well before wiping her tears and said, "I know you wanted me to stay but If I don't go.....there might be bad guys who will try to take over the planet. No one is going to be protected without me. Think about it there might be others who all need me, just like how you need me before. You understand?"
She looked at me with a sad look before she nodded.
"BEside, I'm a Blue fairy and it's my job to help those in need. Isn't that how fairies do? Help people who have problems?"
She thought about what I said as she understood what I meant. "I understand. There might be others like me who might need you." She replied.
I smiled as I stood up before she asked, "Blue Fairy.....Will I see you again?"
I lowered my head and replied, "I don't know....." I notice Lily had a sad look before I added, "But Don't worry, Just because you'll no longer be able to see me, it doesn't mean I won't be gone. I'll always be around and maybe I might come to visit."
Lily's sad face was changed to a happy face. "Can you?" she asked hopefully.
"Only if you promise to keep this adventure a secret." I said playfully, poking her on the nose.
"Don't worry, your secret is safe with us." She said with a smile which I smiled in return as I patted her head. "Oh I almost forgot...." She placed her teddy bear down then grabbed something from her pocket and brought out a pink bag of jellybeans. "Here."She offered to me.
I tilted my head, "For me?"
"It's a gift for thanking you."
"Thanking me for what?"
"For granting my wish."
My friends were confused of what she said, even I am as well. Lily noticed it and explained, "You see....when I wished for my daddy to spend time with me and guess what....it came true. You made it come true. If you hadn't come, I would never get to have fun with my daddy. Now he'll get to spend time with me whenever he want."
I didn't understand why she said that but it's unfortunate Lily didn't realized I was an ex agent that tried to kill her father before. Until, I didn't kill him instead I let them escape. Maybe that's what she meant.
"When I try to look for you, you weren't there anymore. I didn't get the chance to thank you so I thought I leave gifts at the park to see you but you didn't came. Daddy scolded me for leaving them. This is my last gift to you and I hope you accept it this time." She finished. I stared at her before giving her a warm smile.
"Of course, Lily. I'll accept your gift." I said as I received the bag before Lily wrapped her arms around my neck and embraced me with hug. "I'm going to miss you, Blue Fairy." Lily whispered to me. I was surprised by her hug before I hugged her in return and replied, "I'll miss you too, Lily."
Everyone were awed by our moments as I looked up at Vogel who was in front of me. I said to him, "Take good care of her, alright." Vogel nodded at me and said, "I will."
Lily slowly pulled back to look me in the eye. "Goodbye, Lily." I said to her before I stood up as Vogel picked her up. I turned around and wouldn't look back while I was holding a bag of jellybean.
"C'mon guys, Let's head back." I said to them. Arcee and Bumblebee nodded before transforming into vehicle mode as Miko and I got inside. As we left the tunnel, leaving Vogel and Lily with stunned look.
Lily POV
I was amazed that the Blue Fairy's friends turned into a car and motorcycle as they left the tunnel. Vogel said amazement, "Robots who turn into vehicles." as both of us turned to the sweeper train then at the tunnel. He turned to me, "You don't think...."
"Nah I don't think our train can beside we made a promised not to tell anyone." I reminded
"Oh right remained radio silence, Got it. C'mon let's head go back."
I nodded as I trotted along back to the train with him. As he got on, I stopped before looking back at the tunnel. It was sad to see the Blue Fairy one last time but I was happy that I get to thank her and give her my last gift in the end.
NOVA POV
I was sitting at the passenger seat, staring at the bag of jellybean. Miko was at the driver's seat and relaxed. "Raf is going to really enjoy this story."
"Did that guy call us mole men?"
Miko turned to me as I translated, "Bumblebee is confused because Vogel called them mole men."
"Well he's a little crazy." Miko chuckled. I shook my head as I stared back at the bag of jellybeans. Miko asked, "By the way, there's something that's bothering me. Nova, Why did she call you Blue Fairy?"
I blinked by her questioned as Bumblebee questioned, "Come to think of it, she seems very attached to you almost like you know her."
I stared at both of them and let out a sad sigh before I answered, "Do you recall when Fowler said there was one victim who works in New York is under their protection?"
Miko recalled, "I did remember something like that...he said you were hesitant when you saw his daugher."
"That is becoz.....she's the daughter of the 13th target whom I spared from long time ago."
Miko was shocked of what I said, even Bumblebee. "No way." She said
"Yeah...shocking right? To think the little girl I once knew would still remember me."
"So that's why you call her Lily."
"It was a nickname that she had, I guess you might call it fate that brought us together."
"Ok Then Why did she call you Blue Fairy?" Miko questioned.
"I'm not sure.....maybe becoz of my hair that she thinks I'm a fairy who make miracles."
"So can I call you Blue Fairy, now?" Miko smirked playfully.
"Don't even think about it." I said, giving a playful glare to her.
I stared back at the window once more, thinking about Lily. I felt my chest pained to see her one last time, she was such a sweet little girl after knowing her from long time ago, even though she didn't realize I was an assassin who tried to kill her father. But I was glad that I get to meet her again. As I opened the bag and place one of the jellybeans in my mouth, not knowing what was about to happen next.
