When our ways crossed

Her problem part 2

" I need to talk to you, you can follow me around or wait here with pretty boy "

Nat saw the seriousness of his clear blue eyes and looked between the two mech's, she needed to talk with Victor, but she didn't want to leave Crosshairs alone, not with George coming back at any moment. But as she was about to answer Victor had already left the room, Crosshairs nodded in the direction the man had went and sat down at a small couch.

" I'll stay, don't worry "

" Thank you. If George comes just say that you are with me..or no say you are with Victor "

" Yeah yeah, go yer losing him " 

-------

Nat found Victor pulling some rope to keep a prop on the stage, he didn't even look at her as she walked up beside him.

" So... what's wrong, why did they found me so fast ?"

Nat asked and grabbed another rope to help Victor out, or at least make it look like it.

He didn't say anything at first, but then suddenly started mumbling, making sure she was the only one to hear him.

" They got one of ours... Skull took a hit for the youngsters, Storm had to speak to get him out of it... T-Bone was on the mission, that's why he personally went to warn you "

" By the devil... is Skull okay ? And what about the others ?"

" They are fine, as said Skull took most of the beating. Marina is looking at him and making sure everything is right. "

Nat signed in relief, everybody had made it out alive then, that was good, very good.

" How about pretty boy, how did you get him with you ?"

Nat smiled and looked over her shoulder towards the door to the dressroom,

" Funny story actually.. I found him hurt and damaged in a abandoned construction, I took him in and got Marina to look at him. "

" And when he was back at his pedes again ?"

" He drove off... but came back after two hours "

" Two hours ? I must say, I'm impressed that's a new record "

Victor smiled as he moved away from the ropes and walked to a corner with sandbags, Nat just following him. She groaned as he threw her a sandbag and pointed towards a small stair leading under the stage.

" Hey it's not my fault that he came back that fast "

" No of course not... and it's not at all like he is tail over horn for you "

He said and pushed her with his elbow as he walked past her, Nat just growled at him. As a human she couldn't do anything to him, but if she had her real form... oh boy he would be tackled to the floor.

" But that's only a good thing.."

" What.. how.. ?"

He threw the sandbags on the floor at the other side of the stage and Nat did the same.

Victor looked around them before he pressed a small mark on his neck and made a small holographic screen jump up from his hand.

" We found Prime and the Bugatti, both in Texas. Bumblebee is with the Bugatti and some other bot. Prime is with some humans, all on the run. We need to get a hold on all of them and that mech in there can lead us to them "

Nat spent a moment to look at the screen, reading the information it provided her. Bumblebee and the other two wasn't to far away, but she couldn't just tell Crosshairs like that, he would get suspicious and maybe think what she was tricking him. She couldn't afford that, she knew that her leader wanted as many bots in her claws as possible.

" We need Prime and Bee most of all... alpha is getting weaker and more angry by the day, she can't keep up with running her body on anger and hate. She won't eat and she barely sleeps. Bee would make her feel safe and Prime... she can take power from him. "

Nat stopped reading and looked up at the blue eyed man, with a hand she waved out the hologram.

" Are you telling me, that I have to lure Prime with me back to our main base... Victor that's insane " She hissed and Victor immediately hushed her.

" I know it is, but we need alpha to get stable before she goes off and strom Lockdown's ship.     T-Bone is having a hard time getting her to relax already, we are becoming desperate Nat... And in desperate times, desperate solutions are needed. "

" Won't Prime regoniz if I speak our language, he did speak dragonic in his younger days. "

" He did and maybe he will, but he is getting older Nat.. he have forgotten it. The only time he remember alpha is in his nightmares. Nat we need those mech's, use that pretty head and look of your's and get that mech in there to lead you to them "

" ...That's the deceptions way Victor...I don't like to deceive people "

The tall, pale and blue eyed man leaned back and raised his eyebrow before he signed.

" Nat look at me... I'm a 32 feet tall half-blood robot from a different planet, pretending to be a human. It's deception when it's best, and you are doing the exact same thing, but just a tiny bit better than me. "

" But Victor I... "

" Nat !" He hissed and growled at her, frustration clear in his eyes.

" Nat I don't care how you do it, you can marry that damn mech for all I care about, but I will not let alpha's own darkness, hate and rage consume her, when I know there is someone that can stop it.... Either you get Prime or I will get him. The worst that can happen is that T-Bone is sent after him..."

Nat swallowed a lump she had in her throat as her eyes got wider, that would be bad.. no not bad... it would be a true catastrophe if her brother was sent after Prime. Sure T-Bone would get the mech back to their base.. the question was if the Prime would be alive by then.
