Iris:

"You know the plan now, right?" Jack asked quietly, after we arrived into the city next morning.

"Hardly." I growled while stumping forward, glancing back at our dragons that stayed there behind bushes and surrounded by snow. "Okay, we do, but you need to be fast!"

"Good, keep him occupied, when we get the first ones out and to drags, we'll come for second, got it?" Alex asked, when we stopped at some point, near Sebastian's shop.

"Sure thing!" Miko squealed.

"Okay, he loves to talk about his piggyes then." Jack reminded with wink, until they run to the back door. With deep sigh I went for the plan and walked towards the door with Miko.

"We so screw this up." I said quietly and entered the shop, bright lights blinding me bit. But soon I noticed table with meats and all kinds of chicken, deer, bear, tiger what-so-ever was too, then few desks and chairs for eating, and back door, where all meat were.

"Ah, customers!" Soon from the backdoor came Sebastian, the guy who cells the meat. He was black man with short black curly hair, along with brown eyes and mustache, he also has quite beer belly and he's bit fat but nice. He wores red t-shirt with long white/bloody aprol, blue jeans and some random sneakers. (Imagine own if you like). "What can I have for you?"

"Hey!" Miko started and run up to the desk.

Oh boy.

"What is your best and crispy meat?" Miko added, Sebastian chuckled and turned to show the meats while I walked up to it too.

"I would go for you two deer's side bone flesh, after few hours in oven gets the flesh nice and juicy, also bit crispy like you want." He made something with his hands and told proudly of his meat.

I'm gonna hurl.

"Hmm, how much?" Miko asked then.

"Only 57 dollars."

ONLY!?

"Nah-ah, the meat must be perfect for your party Iris, right?" Miko asked while looking at me with normal face. How could she even make one?

She's the master of lying got to say.

"Yeah.." I replied and corner of my eye saw Jack's hand move from window that 'great going'. I saw them run out, and knew they'll be back for second one.

Little time, yet..

"Demanding, are you two?" Sebastian asked with chuckle. "Is there limit for the price?"

"Not at all!" Miko brushed it off and looked behind the glass of the meat. "Can I taste that which pays 89 dollars? I need to know if it's good."

ARE YOU SERIOUS!? WHY AM I HERE ANYWAY!?

"Here you go young lady-" He handed Miko a small piece. "You want too, miss?" He asked, while handing it to me.

"No thanks, I prefer much of-" My eyes gazed to the back room, seeing when boys run in and showed 'one last time'. "Something else.."

Sebastian probably saw this and chuckled, then went towards the door.

"You want my best? Well here it is-" He grabbed the handle.

God!

"No! No! No!" I run after him with Miko and grabbed his arm. "Miko liked more that, right!?" I yelled with nervous grin, Miko nodded her head madly. "We will take that!"

".. If you insist." Sebastian let go of the handle and walked over to the desk again with smile. "Here just for you, is there gonna be huge party?"

I saw Jack and Alex got last ones, then show 'okay' and run out. I sighed in relief and walked with Miko back to the desk.

"Yeah- umm- relatives are coming." I stated. "Miko here's my little sister, annoying." I hated hugging her, but had to do it.

"I understand and much-" He said with chuckle and handed me the meat sack. "Are you on what month?" He asked, preferring to my bump.

"Umm, third." I answered with chuckle. I didn't know was it any help anyway.

Better be nice.

"Dad must be happy?" He asked while tapping something on the cash. "It's 89$ then."

"Sure.."

~ Time skip ~

"That's my first and last time!" I growled while rushing over to Megatron and others, then by his help jumped on. "I bought 89 dollars spending meat! I'm poor!"

"Can I have it!?" Alex asked, I glared at him.

"If anyone, it's Megatron." I growled and layed on Megs' back. "You want some meat?"

"Not before you've eaten." Megatron pointed out while gently stroke my cheek with his nose. "Then I can concider it." I chuckled and kissed his nose.

He always makes me forget how to be angry.

"So you can see if it's poisoned, is that it?" I asked when he stood up and brushed the snow off of him.

"Maybe." He replied with grin and spread his wings open up. "But I'm still making sure of the meat before you eat it."

I smiled, then he took off.

Others following.

~ Time skip ~

After Megatron landed, I had got down and others had gathered the piggs, deers, tigers, bears, ducks and chicken there. Like a family meal.

"This should feed the whole damn village." Jack said with chuckle.

"The fire's ready!" Julia yelled near the campfire.

"Then let's eat!" Alex grabbed his piece and run to the fire with Jack, racing who's gonna be first. "I won!"

"You pushed me!"

"Again fight on." Arcee said with sigh while exiting her den. Jack traveled on Jazz because Arcee stayed behind of her stomach ache.. it's somekind of puriod thing to female ones.

I'm glad I don't have!

"You two knock it off." Knockout growled, while laying down beside his mate.

I kneeled down beside the fire and opened my jacket, then took the meat out and put it into a stick, then above the fire. Nextly I sit down and saw Optimus and Megatron again discuss of something.

"What's that?" Strongarm asked from behind me, I didn't even notice she was there.

"I'm sorry, am I in front-?"

"No, don't." She stopped me when I was going to stand. "You were not, but what's with that meat?" I turned to look at it and sighed.

"I think it's available.. Miko!" I yelled, seeing she turned to look at me while eating her crisped meat. "What's this meat!? It looks different from the piggs!"

"I didn't watch!" We yelled to each other because she was far away. "Probably something elk-! I don't know!"

With sigh I grabbed it when it looked ready and studied it.

Well, let's try it.

With single bite, I couldn't first taste anything, until I chewed some time and felt the tug.

In my stomach.

I dropped the piece, earning everyone's attention, then I started coughing and spit the meat out of my mouth. Something told me to do so. It smelt, felt and tasted odd.

And the baby clearly didn't want it either.

"Iris!" Jack and others rushed over to me. Strongarm was the close one, but Megatron was first one there and carefully pushed my side, getting me on my knees and hands, then I kept spitting and panting.

"What's wrong!?" Bumblebee asked, while Optimus turned to the piece and sniffed it. Until his entire body froze as he stood straight back up, backing away from it.

"Drink girl!" Julia came with water mug, with pant I took it and sit on my knees, then drinked it fully and after that coughed still.

But I started cringing still, wrapping my arms around my stomach and glaring at the piece of meat.

"What is it?" Megatron growled while walking over to the damn meat and smelled it. He growled and backed away.

With disgusted face.

"Well?" Miko asked, her arms crossed and studying the piece also. Everyone did.

"It's.. our kind." Optimus spoke up, my eyes froze and so did other humans' too.

... What?

"B-but.. how?" Jazz asked with shaky voice.

"I told you they were savages, but eating our flesh!?" Ironhide roared, while standing up and punching the ground. "They are murderers, Optimus!"

"I didn't know dad would come this far!" Alex growled while glaring the meat.

With growl, I took support of Megatron and approached the piece.

"Get her some herbs!" June ordered from not far away.

When I grabbed it, I raised it up and studied, then started walking towards the edge.

"Iris?" Julia asked, I stopped and stared down at the pretty long fall, now white ground of snow.

"I paid of.. him or her.." I started, in atmostphere floaded silence. "I ate some, making me feel disgusted of our race and sorry for yours.. I can't maybe get him or she back, but I promise to help you guys to survive. After all-" I looked back at everyone. "You've kept us alive, already this long."

"Which is something to celebrate!" Miko yelled, I gave small sad smile until Optimus stepped forward and walked beside me.

"It is a relief to hear you haven't changed at all." Optimus stated, while grabbing the meat and looking down.

"I would never do that." I stated sternly, looking down too.

Until Optimus dropped the meat piece.

Back to ground.

Where he or she once may had lived.

Now resting.
