Hidden Spark on Earth (TFP)

Chapter 71

She smiled as she kicked her feet gently as she glides through the water. It felt nice, the world was noisy, and right now she felt as though she had found a place of serenity. A place of where she could calm her mind. She moved back to the surface to catch her breath, smiling as she felt relaxed. She moved her body to allow the water to lift her so she was floating on the surface, allowing her to stare at the sky with a smile.

She could see the white clouds rolling above her, and it took a moment before she was seeing different shapes in them. She smiled as she was entertained by seeing the different shapes. She wished that Optimus was here right now. He would be laying beside her, staring at the sky with her. She would probably be laying on his chassis as well.

She thought about daydreaming...but...it probably would hurt. Especially as she knew that Optimus was not here with her. She felt tears in her eyes, letting them roll down her cheeks as she thought about him. She focused on the bond, she felt frustration through the bond. She wondered if that meant he was trying to find her, or it was due to something else, she did not know. She focused so she could send love through the bond, allowing him to feel it. She smiled when she felt love coming from him in return. She considered communicating with him, but she heard something heavy approaching.

She didn't want to look, but she shifted and lowered her legs to the bottom of the lake to stand. She looked around and spotted Megatron. He tilted his head and smirked at her, and it was not a cold or angry smirk. But rather, a kind smirk. It looked rather strange on Megatron's face, and yet...Saphira somehow liked it. She felt her cheeks heating up again before she splashed her face with water to calm herself down.

"I see you have spent a bit of time exploring this little island," Megatron comments as he approached the lake, he glanced around and spotted the clothing on the ground. He walked over to them and picked them up. "I had wondered if you would like this place. I had only just discovered it on our scans."

"Is there an energon source or something?" Saphira asked curiously before gesturing to the mountain. "I'm pretty sure it would be in that dormant volcano."

The commander glanced at the mountain, however he did not seem particularly interested in it. "If there was a signal here, we would have already explored it by now. There is not signal to follow. This is just a place I have come on my own will."

She frowned at him curiously, not really understanding the reason. "Why would that be?"

Megatron's smirk widened slightly at her. "Oh, you will see. I do not wish to disturb your swimming, it appears you have been enjoying it." He stood up and turned to leave, making her widen her eyes as he still had her clothes. "I will be waiting for you. Follow my tracks and they..."

"YEEOUCH!" He turned in surprise when he heard Saphira yelp. She was bouncing in the water and she reached down, yelping again and lifting her hand out of the water. Hanging onto her finger was a large crab. "Get off!"

She shakes her hand to try to get it off while moving towards the bank. Megatron widened his optics before he began to laugh suddenly. She paused and stared at him in surprise, the laugh coming from him wasn't out of malice or mockery, but rather pure amusement. She sighed and kept trying to pry the crab off her finger. Megatron continued to laugh, finding her struggles of trying to pry the crab off her hand hilarious.

"This isn't funny!" Saphira barked at him in frustration as she walked onto the shore. Megatron looked at her before falling onto his aft, laughing hard. She frowned at him and placed one hand on her hip. "I'm serious!"

Megatron intakes and exhales heavily as he stopped laughing for a moment, looking at the crab hanging onto Saphira's finger. "It is just a tiny creature, how is it that you can't get of it?"
