Chapter 121 - Chapter 25 part 6

"Now I have to figure out why I'm here of all places." Alexa said to herself as she held onto the meteorite with a tight grip. She soon attempted to push it into one direction but found the meteorite had gone further than it should have as she was trying to hold onto the rock. She looked around the large space-area which felt ominous and cosmic as she stood up on the meteorite without falling off although it did feel a bit slippy. Even though she knew she was in a sort of dangerous position, she needed to see what was going on. From afar there were only two more planets, one which was slightly high up in space and the other was near the same level as the grey planet with the yellow atmosphere. She jumped on the other meteorite seeing that one of the planets was a blue-purple planet and other one was an broken yellowish orange planet which seem to be reforming again? The broken planet's pieces were slowly floating back to their original positions and she heard something nearby. Her eyes widened as the booming noise of rocks crashing into each other was heard and she squinted trying to see what was extremely far away. Suddenly they jumped through the rocks and Alexa instantly saw a familiar face that was suddenly in front of her. Starscream! Starscream laughed before he suddenly stabbed Alexa collarbone and threw her back really far. Alexa coughed as she wiped the blood from there as her vision faded in and out for a moment.

Alexa soon saw something floating nearby her rock and grabbed it with a firm hand, a large sword with a pinkish-red crystal and immediately remembered when Starscream had fought them with this type of sword after he stopped controlling Optimus. It's been what? An few days ago? She turned the sword around which had the label: Sword of Karma. "Sword of karma huh..." She wondered as she said that. That was until Starscream jumped on the side of the meteorite, making her fall off. "What in the world?" She got up seeing that Starscream looked angry now that his sword was taken from him with his smile looking strained now. For Starscream, it hurt trying to make a scowl since his mouth didn't allow that. So he only narrowed his own optics and jumped, the dimensional vortex and its weird rules allowing him to manoeuvre in a way that shouldn't be allowed in a vacuum. If this was a actual vacuum. Alexa got up and grazed Starscream's arm with his own sword. Starscream just shot the meteorite under them both which made Alexa fall back floating. Starscream went in front of the girl and grabbed her up with his hand as he yelled "I should kill you right now and I will!" Alexa grabbed the sword firmly and used it against his claws. "I think not." She said before coughing out some blood and she struggled to push him backwards. Starscream's optics glitched out but he didn't notice as he pushed his claws forward and made small claw marks on her face. He laughed slowly as he dragged them down her face, drawing blood. Alexa reacted with reflex and slashed his arm, making a large wound that surprised the seeker.

Alexa soon saw Starscream raised his hand and a small amount of Supernova energy came out of his hand (which is still a large amount of energy for humans). She jumped upwards before he had destroyed a large amount of meteorites. Alexa aimed herself downwards and jumped down as her hair whipped upwards. She felt herself get pulled down fast and Starscream looked annoyed. Just what was this human doing? He jumped on one of the furthest rocks and the vortex adjusted to his control. He jumped and fell down quicker than a human as he aimed his null rays. Alexa was hit on her back and felt a pain go across downwards as she turned around aiming her revolver at him. And she landed somewhere as she groaned, rubbing her own head. She looked around seeing that she was on a floating orange building. The rest of the vortex felt incredibly warm and she began to sweat. She saw Starscream who was using his jet attributes to help him stay up in the air. His null rays shifted and shot out a light orange beam instead of the usual purple beams that Seekers shot. It hit where Alexa was and it left a black mark on the roof of the building. Alexa laid on the floor feeling dizzy and her eyes were opening and closing. A intense pounding came over Alexa's mind, her thoughts erratic and filled with images of murdering Decepticons. Her long hair was messy, her arms shaky, the stinging came over her hands and her shoes suddenly felt uncomfortable to fit in as she closed her eyes.

Alexa woke up after a few minutes as she sat up, her lip bloody and her face looked downwards as large drops of blood was seen on the floor as she breathed tightly. There was some noises nearby as she cursed to herself. "Dam... Damn it..." She cursed out loud as she felt like she was on the verge of screaming out loud. Her eyes watered with pain as she got upwards. And saw that the seeker had disappeared but guessed he was probably still here. "Maybe I shouldn't have gone too far down." Alexa said and she knew that the area was dangerous due to the environmental hazards. It was no easy risk trying to traverse through the reality-bending place. But with Starscream included, danger was unavoidable and it had become twice as risky then it was supposed to. She got up jumping from the building through the meteorites as she got on another one. Alexa jumped floating upwards and landed on a particularly large meteorite. There was a white light coming from there. She was about to reach it until everything started to shake and she tumbled back. Alexa landed as she felt the wind went out of her lungs and the vortex warped again. Alexa felt like she was under pressure and felt even more tired than she usually was and she fell to her knees as her mind was overloaded and was slowly falling apart. Which the seeker watched from afar. Alexa became aware of the fact that she was only here with the seeker that tormented her.

"Get down here Starscream!" She yelled out loud through the space-like area that had air. "Very well then, youngling." Starscream mocked her and she was feeling quite helpless. Soon the monstrous seeker landed near her but didn't attack her as Alexa comprehended the height of the adult Cybertronian compared to the height of her teenager height. He was about 3-4 times taller than her and his hunched position made him only a foot smaller than his actual height, which was 33ft tall. Alexa tried to not give him the satisfaction that he wanted but she couldn't help but look up in fear even though that was exactly what he wanted. Alexa felt like she was going to collapse as her sanity was trying to process what had exactly happened. Then Starscream heard noises nearby and said "Eh, what is causing that racket!? But don't think I will forget what I am going to do to you." She watched as Starscream snapped his fingers and she got transported into another place. She looked around before looking in front of her and she felt like she was going to throw up. There was fresh corpses in the waters, and some were on land. There was an human arm roasted on a spit, burned skin falling on the coal. The sign of human bodies hanging with rictus grins mocked Alexa. A couple of eyeballs that had fleshy, pink mass around the white sclera and no pupils appeared in the iris were around a dark blue box. She didn't want to imagine what else was in that box.

The smell of roasting animal mean was heard as she turned and saw that there was a young piglet who looked to be the runt. The piglet's eyes were wide open as it was over a fire and was slowly roasted as she looked around seeing tools such as meat saw, pruners, boning hook which had a unevenly piece of meat stuck to the hook, vegetable peeler and shears. There was a human nearby with metal skewer, mainly around the limbs to hold them firmly against the wall as some blood stained their clothes. Alexa felt sick and found an door nearby which she ran through, not wanting to look back. She took a moment to breath and said "Well, just where am I?" She asked herself. She was still in the vortex, she could tell. But felt as if she was in a eerie sort of part. That was until a crack was appearing in the ground and started to get bigger to the point where it could fit a human. Light came out and she jumped down there, hoping to finally escape. She was falling downwards through a white area and saw objects like clocks, black planes, broken angelic wings around the cloaks, black small stars falling the opposite way and Alexa closed her eyes before she found herself in a large grasslands area and a black-void like hole nearby. She got up feeling like she learnt more about the vortex more than she should have.
