Chapter 22
Sentinel narrowed his optics. “Who are you and where did you come from?” he asked while poking Roll Crush’s chest plate.
Roll Crush frowned at the blue mech’s rude demeanor “Well ain’t ya a rude ‘un.” He told the Elite Guard.
“Might as well tell him before he thinks you’re some Decepticon spy.” Twilight said.
Nori nodded, “It was about… two months ago?” she asked, looking up at her Autobot friend, “Sounds about right.” Twilight answered.
“Well there was a Monster Truck convention that I was dying to go to.” Nori said as she continued her tale.
“Are you sick?” Optimus Prime asked, slightly concern for the young human.
Nori blinked her blue grey eyes at the red and blue truck and Sari chuckled, “No Optimus. It means that Nori really wanted to go to the convention.” She explained.
“I don’t get it.” Bulkhead told the little red head.
“I’ll explain more about it later.” She promised Bulkhead.
“Anyway,” Nori stated with a small cough. “I had volunteered to be a mechanic and help out with any repairs or clean up that would be needed. It was the last day of the convention and while Twi waited for me, I went wandering around at all the different trucks and to see if anyone needed my help.” Nori patted Roll Crush’s leg, “Roll was owned by a Texan and I overheard him complaining that his Monster Truck kept moving on its own. He thought that maybe his brakes were broken or leaking fluid and so I offered to check the brakes for him. He agreed and when I checked the brakes for any damages or a break in the line, I found nothing.”
“I was only trying out mah wheels.” Roll Crush told them.
“I told his owner everything was fine, he looked at me like I was some incompetent mechanic and muttered that women should never fix cars as I walked off. I didn’t get to far from Roll.”
“Why’s that?” Jazz asked.
“Some guys cornered me and wouldn’t let me go unless I… did something for them.” answered Nori with a look of disgust on her face.
“Seeing that and appalled that no one was doin’ anythin’ about it, I decided to take matter into my own servo.” Roll Crush added.
“Yeaaaaah…” drawl Nori, “always nice to see a vehicle with massive wheels capable of crushing me speed towards me.” Roll Crush noticed the frown on the blue haired woman’s face. “I told ya I was sorry, I was only tryin’ ta scare those males away.” Roll Crush said apologetically.
“I know but you still managed to scare me nearly to death.” Nori informed him.
“But how did you know that… Roll Crush was a sentinel being?” Optimus asked.
“When I was trying to calm my beating heart, he asked ‘Are ya alright lil lady?’” Nori answered.
“If he belonged to another organic, how did you end up with him?” someone asked.
“After I found out what Roll Crush was and asked if his owner knew what he was and getting a ‘no’ back I told Roll Crush to keep his owner here after the convention ended so I could buy him since I was sure his owner wasn’t going to react well to this. Roll Crush did as I asked and I tried to convince his owner to let me buy his truck but he wouldn’t and I continued to plead and goad and bargain until he just snapped at me.” explain Nori.
“I don’t like rude people even if it was my own owner.” Roll Crush said with a huff as he cross his arms over his chest plate.
Nori chuckled “It was pretty amazing watching Roll transform in front of his owner and then pick him up by his shirt and demand that he apologize to me.”
“Did he?”
“Yep. He apologized profusely and once Roll was satisfied with the apology, he set him down and the Texan said that I could keep his truck and ran off.”
The Autobots and Sari imagined that happening, and Sari giggled. Optimus coughed and said “That is a pretty unusual name. How did you come by it?” Nori, Twilight and Roll Crush thought back to that day.
========================
FLASH BACK
========================
“Well, that was unexpected.” comment Twilight as he transformed and watched the Texan run.
“Indeed.” agreed Nori.
“Howdy, what’s yer name?” the Truck asked the Ferrari holding his hand out.
“I’m Twilight.” The ninja bot answered shaking the bigger bot’s hand, “What’s yours?”
The truck frown, “I don’t have one.” He said sadly.
“Maybe we can think up a name for you.” Nori suggested.
“Really?” the truck asked with a smile and Nori nodded.
Both Twilight and Nori stood in the empty lot thinking long and hard for a name to give to their new friend. “Roll?” Nori wondered as Twilight said, “Crush.” They turned to look at one another wearing the same confuse expression. “Crush? Why Crush?” Nori asked her friend.
“Because he almost crushed you.” Twilight answered.
Nori scoffed and Twilight noticed the hint of a small shiver that ran through his human friend’s body. “He did not and we shouldn’t name him for that.” She stated.
“Well why Roll?” Twilight asked in turn. Nori chuckled softly and rubbed the nape of her neck, “No reason…”
Twilight grinned, “You were thinking the same thing I was weren’t you?” he teased, and Nori stuck her tongue out in response. While the two had their playful banter, the Monster Truck was going over the two names they suggested. “Roll… Crush… Roll Crush. I like it.” He said with a smile.
Twilight and Nori turned in his direction. “Roll Crush? You’re naming yourself Roll Crush?” Twilight asked.
“Yup!” Roll Crush answered with glee.
“Even though we got those names from the fact that you almost crushed Nori with your wheels?” Twilight asked again.
“Yep.”
Nori scratched her chin and with a shrug said, “If he’s happy with it then I’m happy with it. It’s nice to meet you Roll Crush.” Nori told the Monster Truck.
“It’s a pleasure meetin’ you both.” Roll Crush replied with a smile.
==========================
“Let’s just say Roll chose his name from me and Twilight.” Nori answered.
“Are you an Autobot?” Sentinel inquired, looking at Roll Crush.
“No sir, I ain’t. I was jus’ a humble vehicle wit’ big wheels when I became aware.” Roll Crush answered with a force smile, disliking that arrogant blue mech.
Sentinel Prime gave him a suspicious look.
“Twilight, did you know that we were on Earth?” Prowl asked the Ferrari. Twilight shrugged and said, “Yeah.”
Sentinel turn on him. “You knew and you didn’t try contacting us?”
Twilight glared up at him slightly. “Why should I tell you why I didn’t attempt to contact Optimus Prime and his crew?” he asked, “Especially when I’ve no doubt you marked me as dead.”
“I was told you went hurling into a spacebridge, who knew where you might’ve ended up and in what condition.” Sentinel replied.
Twilight scoff and retort, “Great excuse, Midnight told me that you wouldn’t even let him look for me and prove whether I still function or not.”
“And I was wrong.” Counter Sentinel.
“You’re a dumbaft.” Twilight quipped.
The Elite Guard and ninja ‘bot glared at one another, the others new if they didn’t interfere, one of them might throw the first punch.
“Cool it you two. Twilight is functioning, so when we return to Cybertron, we can fix that little mistake. And I’m sure Twilight didn’t mean calling you a dumbaft Sentinel.” Jazz told the blue Autobot.
Nori placed a hand on Twilight’s leg and he calmed down a bit. “So, um, why didn’t you try contacting us?” Optimus Prime asked.
Twilight shrugged again and said, “My comm. link is damage, there was no way to fix it… and I didn’t want to leave without paying Nori back for helping me.”
“We can’t leave ourselves, we’re in the same dilemma as you.” Bulkhead pointed out.
“And why do you need to… pay Nori back for?” Optimus Prime asked.
Twilight smile and answered, “Because when I crashed into this planet, Nori found me and spent almost two years fixing me.”
“Is that why you kept visiting my dad and asking him about his robotic engineering?” Sari asked the older woman.
“Oh course.” Nori answered, “I had little knowledge about robotic engineering but since I knew your father did, I figured I could ask him so I could help out Twilight.”
“And the little organic couldn’t fix a comm. link?” wonder Sentinel.
“Hey! Some parts are hard to come by.” Nori told him.
“Well, that just comes to show how inferior some organics are.” Sentinel stated. Roll Crush fume at the way the egotist Autobot spoke to Twilight and looked down on the human race like they were nothing, after all, he was made by them and for some reason, was made into a sentinel being. He like the Nori’s weird and mischievous remarks and how Twilight accepts him for being what he is. Enrage, Roll Crush charged like a bull at the blue mech.
“You know, pride is a deadly sin,” Nori told Sentinel as she narrow her eyes, “and if you’re not careful, it’s gonna bite you in the ass—” Roll Crush slammed into Sentinel, sending him flying. The other Autobots stared with startled expression as Sentinel hurled towards the door.
The door opened, Midnightrunner took one step and stopped. His chassis drooped as a lot of blue headed towards him. “Oh frag me…” he mumbled as Sentinel slammed into him and into the wall.
The Autobots and Sari wince as both Sentinel and Midnightrunner hit the wall and slid down it, silver and blue paint scrapping off the triple changer’s chassis. Nori blinked her eyes once, twice and said, “Told you.”
“Ow…” came Midnightrunner’s muffle response.
“And Midnight was punished for?” Twilight asked, staring down at his friend. Nori shrugged and answered, “Bad timing.”
Optimus Prime and Jazz rolled an unconscious Sentinel off of Midnightrunner. The Intelligence officer sat against the wall, slightly daze and shaking his head he said, “I’m gonna be feeling that one.”
“Are you ok Midnightrunner?” Jazz asked.
“Just peachy Jazz, I always wanted to be crushed by ego.” Was Midnightrunner’s riposte.
“Sorry ‘bout dat, I didn’t know you would be comin’ through dat door.” Roll Crush apologized. “Well, don’t get so mad and charge at him like a bull next time.” Nori told the Monster Truck.
“I told you we shouldn’t’ve let him watch that bull fighting on t.v.” Twilight explains to Nori and she stuck her tongue at him in response.
“Well, I do appreciate your apology Roll.” Midnightrunner told the truck as he felt his helm for damages. “No so much for my dented helm, cracked visor and wounded dignity.”
“I can help with your injuries.” Sari offered as she held up her Allspark key.
“Thank you, I would like that.” Midnightrunner replied with a smile. Sari walked over to the silver and blue triple changer and Optimus helped her onto Midnightrunner’s chest plate. His Autobot symbol retract, Sari’s key transformed and she place it into the keyhole and turn her key. A few seconds later, Midnightrunner was as good as new.
“Wow. That was amazing. Thanks.” Midnightrunner told Sari as she jumped to the floor. “No problem.” Sari replied back as Midnightrunner got to his feet.
“What happen here?” Ratchet asked as he and Bumblebee came into the room. “Miscommunication.” Answered Midnightrunner.
Sari ran over to Bumblebee “Are you ok Bumblebee?” she asked with worry. Bumblebee force out a smile and answered, “I’m fine Sari.”
Optimus gave Ratchet a questioning look and Ratchet shook his head at him, understanding the response he said, “Now that Bumblebee’s conscious, I guess we can return to the plant.” And his teammates nodded.
“Alright.” Jazz said with a nod and turn to Prowl. “See you in the morning.” Prowl smiled and followed after his friends. Jazz turned to the three remaining transformers and human and ask,” You leaving too?”
“Not right now.” Answer Midnightrunner, “I need to report to Ultra Magnus first.”
“We’ll wait for you.” Twilight told his friend and Nori and Roll Crush nodded.
“Thanks. I’ll be back in a few minutes.” He promised and went to look for Ultra Magnus.
“I feel terrible fer wat I did, need help wit’ yer comrade?” Roll Crush asked Jazz.
“That would be nice.” Jazz answered and with Roll Crush’s help, they lift Sentinel and carried him to his personal quarters.
