Sooo glad I got this out there today. I will say, this one is also a little out there, but not as much. And don't worry, (Y/n) is self-aware of the past reflecting and how weird it suddenly is. I'm sure y'all know exactly where we're starting at in the show ;)

Of course you'd know, Cliffjumper is only in for like, what, five minutes?

Warnings: Two, maybe three swear words idk

~*~*~*

      "So all I'm saying is, Slash Monkey is the greatest, and you should totally listen to it!" Miko exclaimed for probably the fifth time that day. It turned out that her and Miko had the same last class - an art class.

      "Yes, I'll be sure to listen to it as soon as I get home." (Y/n) chuckled, unlocking the bike lock.

      "(Y/n)! Hey, I need the lock." Jack ran up quickly, panting hard to catch his breath.

      "Work?" She passed the lock to him.

      "Yeah, they just called, Raine had some emergency with her two-year-old. They need me to cover her shift today." Jack sighed.

      "That's fine. I'm gonna be out all day anyway. Club calls." (Y/n) winked at her brother.

      "Y'know, I never actually met any of your club friends." Jack shrugged.

      "That's cause you're either at work or anti-social." (Y/n) laughed.

      "Alright, alright. I've got to go now, or I'll be late. I texted mom, so hopefully she'll see it and wont freak out." Jack hopped on his bike, putting the lock in his bag. He finally caught sight of Miko standing next to (Y/n). "Oh hey, Miko right? I hope you're adjusting well and (Y/n) hasn't made things too complicated."

      "Oh shut up, you ass." (Y/n) laughed with Jack, waving goodbye before hopping on her own bike.

      "Who was that?" Miko stared off after him.

      "My brother, Jack Darby." (Y/n) shrugged. "Don't turn this into a 'I fell in love with my friend's brother' type thing, Miko." she laughed, waving a finger at the girl.

      "I wont." Miko laughed before her phone went off. Looking at it, (Y/n) saw Miko's smile fall into a frown. "Host parents. I have to head home. It was nice meeting you, (Y/n)!" Miko ran off, waving goodbye as she went.

      (Y/n) just chuckled and shook her head, pedaling on the sidewalk and around the corner from the school. Racing towards the outskirts of town, (Y/n) continued to look behind her to make sure no one had been following her. People began to grow scarce, houses further and further apart.

      She continued to pedal even when she left the vicinity of the town. (Y/n) knew her club would be way far out, not letting anyone see them. She came up to a pond that was mostly dried out, with a big boulder on the other side. Riding down the small slope, (Y/n) once more made sure no one was following her before jumping off her bike and hiding it behind the boulder. Leaning against it, she waited for her club mates to show up.

It was twenty minutes before a green swirl finally appeared in front of (Y/n), and she eagerly stepped through.

      "Couldn't you have opened a groundbridge earlier there, Starscream?" (Y/n) complained, looking up expectantly at the alien robot.

      "You better think about the tone you're using, girl. You do not wish to get squished, hmm?" Starscream grinned evilly.

      "Soundwave would have your head." She grunted, moving her vastly smaller body past him.

      "Helm, and you should consider yourself lucky that Soundwave had taken a liking to you in the Earth months you've been here." Starscream grumbled, walking slower to match her pace towards the control room.

      "Has it really only been months? Feels like a whole year now."

      "With just my luck, it might be." Starscream grumbled again.

      "Oh hush, Starscream. You love me!" (Y/n) laughed, passing a group of Vehicons on their way out on a mission.

      "I will never admit that you're growing on me, you lower life form." Starscream sneered, turning his helm away.

      (Y/n) caught sight of a blue hue stretching across Starscream's faceplate just before he turned. She smirked, noting that to tease him with later. Finally making it into the control room, Soundwave stood at one of the computer docks, Vehicons at the surrounding ones. In front of the main console sat a large window which allowed you to overlook the Earth. Soundwave turned and gave the teen a nod.

      She nodded back and saluted him with two fingers. A Vehicon gently set a small sword (Y/n) had stashed here - a German Executioner sword - and a comm. (Y/n) thanked the Vehicon in question before slipping the heavy sheath onto a set place in her belt, and putting the comm in her ear. The sword was one of the only things she kept with her after some unfortunate events. It had been in her family for generations, and she took it after... (Y/n) squeezed her eyes shut and shook her head.

      Why am I dwelling on the past today? This is stupid. What happened happened, and that's that. She thought.

      "(Y/n). If you would like to stand there all day I would gladly rip your weapon of choice away from you, or you could start moving and help me get these Vehicons where they need to go!" Starscream yelled.

      She rolled her eyes, one hand on her sheath before strutting over to his outstretched servo, pulling her up onto the main console. Trying to make sense of the Cybertronian, (Y/n) turned to the window. They were pulling up to an energon mine; she guessed those Vehicons she passed earlier were the ones going down to the mines. Letting her arms cross over each other until one hand rested on the opposite elbow, (Y/n) spotted something red and moving gleaming below them.

      "Starscream, is that an Autobot down there?"

      Starscream looked, optics narrowing as he caught sight of the - now obvious - Autobot. "Yes. I believe that one is Cliffjumper, if I'm not mistaken."

      "The one I fought about a month ago?"

      "I would use the word 'fought' very loosely in your case. If you hadn't fired off a Vehicon weapon, you'd most likely be dead by now." Starscream growled.

      Who shit in his energon? (Y/n) scowled. "No matter," she pressed a finger against the comm in her ear. "Vehicon squadron, there is an Autobot on the ground. Do you copy?"

      "Copy loud and clear."

      "How do you want me to proceed, Starscream?" (Y/n)'s (eye color) eyes flicked up to the aforementioned mech.

      Starscream glanced behind (Y/n) before scoffing and looking back down at her. "Since you're a valued team member now, I suggest giving them permission to terminate."

      (Y/n) pressed her comm again, watching as Cliffjumper transformed below. "Permission granted to terminate the Autobot on sight."

      Yep, this was her art club. What an art form the Decepticons were. And with that, she ended the comm link, and watched the Vehicons fly down to Cliffjumper.
