Transformers Prime - Hazy

Clashing Shards . . .

Sunny nodded at Jasmine’s statement.

Sunny: "I know it's really sad, losing something you love . . . Do you need a hug?"

Before Jasmine could answer, Sunny wrapped her arms around her tightly. Jasmine sighed, breathing gently into the little girl's hair.

Jasmine: "We'll get through it eventually . . . It'll be okay . . ."

She waited for the rest of their party to cross the land mines in single file. Soon enough, they made it through. Nici sighed with relief.

Nici: "Okay, this is where we split up. Indigo, Katana,  Sia, Vortex, Mira and Emery will take care of any defences and distract Bombshell, while myself, Soundwave, and Nova take care of the device. The rest of you take down the satellite."

Jasmine nodded, barely catching what they said.

Jasmine: "Hang on, Hon."

She stepped forward through a gate, and came out on the other side of the mine field with Sunny in tow. She would’ve loved to make the process easier and have just taken everyone through a gate, but it would’ve been time-consuming in it’s own right. Angel could move dozens of people at a time, even the base, through one of the gates, but Jasmine was restricted to only a few. It was enough to keep Sunny’s risk minimized, though, and that gave her some small comfort. She couldn’t bear to put a little girl in danger again. She’d already done so poorly with Jade . . . Her eyes flickered with that faint shade of pale green in her sorrow, clouding her vision for just a moment. She turned her attention back to Sunny, trying to ignore it.

Jasmine: "You ready to go, kiddo?"

She nodded, golden plating shrinking around her small form.

Sunny: "Ready to go!"

Jasmine nodded to Optimus and Meggy, who was mercifully quiet. When Jasmine looked at Meggy, all she could hear was the girl murmuring ‘Mommy’ the day she’d had another ‘memory spell’. She wasn’t sure exactly how much she could take in the absence of her own sparklings. Of her babies. The pain was fresh enough without having to be reminded of the only living voice that had called her by that title.

Jasmine: "Let's get this done."

She turned her eyes back to Nici.

Jasmine: "Take out that device pronto."

???: "Well really now, Sugar, were you planning on having a party without me?"

Angel strode up towards them, her blonde hair in a tight bun, a smile on her face despite the grave situation. Nici whirled around with a smile.

Nici: "I was wondering if you would show up!"

She cheered, though inwardly her stomach clenched. Her sister . . . she fought it off, the way she knew she had to. Meggy grinned.

Meggy: "We need all the help we can get."

Sunny instantly tensed. She hadn't seen Angel before, so to her, Angel looked a lot like, well, someone entirely different. And the similarity was ill-received.

Sunny: "BOMBSHELL!"

She shrieked, attempting to open fire on the blonde woman, who remained incredibly calm. She didn’t so much as flinch at the potential threat. If needed, she could easily open a gate and let the blasts travel somewhere harmless.

Mira: "Whoa! Whoa! Easy killer!"

Mira held her back, attempting to calm the little girl, attempting to reason with her, knowing her fears that were bubbling to the surface.
