You decided to stay hidden behind drift for a minute before revealing yourself to the group of autobots. They've been hiding from humans for a while, who knows how they'll react when they see you.

"Well I'll be damned, if it ain't drift, I thought the humans woulda snuffed you out by now" one of them spoke up laughing at his own comment. He had a gruff voice and from where you were standing you could make out a rather large cannon resting at his side. You didn't want to give yourself away so you decided against trying to get a better look.

"I could say the same to you hound, you don't exactly blend in" Drift shot back, motioning his sword towards the outobot. You heard unamused grumbles come from the one you now know as hound while amused laughing came from the other side of the room. You risked a peek and saw a green autobot holding a blaster in one hand on his shoulder and another by his side. You hid again when he started speaking.

"Now now you two let's use kind words, we're on the same team remember" he said trying to break the tension, "but if you really want to dish it out, don't let me stop you" he laughed...nevermind. Drift shook his head and let out a sigh of disappointment "I see you haven't changed crosshairs" he spoke, unamused. A smaller chuckle came from crosshairs before their interaction was interupted.

"It's good~to see~you're ok" came another voice. Or more a few voices, the tone and sound changing after every few words. Curious, you took another glance and saw the smaller yellow autobot approach drift. Drift just nodded and waited for him to continue, "have you heard~anything from~the boss?" You remember drift calling him bumblebee just as you arrived. "Sadly no, I was hoping you'd have some news" Drift replied, his hope of finding their leader dwindling away.

Bumblebee just shook his head, letting off some sad beeps. "Hell we've been looking for him for years without so much as a message of where he could be, or even of he's still alive" hound spoke up, clearly fed up with the chase.
"Yeah and it ain't like we can send out an S.O.S or something" crosshairs interjected, "not if we don't want those government scumbags finding us" he mumbled. It was clear they had given up hope of ever finding optimus. So you thought now was as good a time as ever to introduce yourself.

"Maybe I can help" you spoke up, stepping out from behind drifts foot. In an instant the trio jumped into fight mode, bumblebee's battle helmet forming around his face and his cannon aimed right at you, the others having their weapons raised towards you aswell. You took a step back, drift raising his swords and standing infront of you protectively. "Lower your weapons" Drift commanded in a low tone, not letting them have a clear shot at you.

"What the hell man, you brought a human with you, now she knows we're here, she's probably already alerted her government buddies" hound said pushing his cannon closer. "She is not a threat" Drift started, pushing hounds cannon away with the tip of his sword only to have hound raise a different weapon in his other hand. "Cemetary wind is after her too, she was the one who helped me find you three" he drift responded, adjusting his position infront of you after noticing crosshairs trying to sneak round. "Cmon, you really gonna try and fight us all for this measly human, just lemme shoot her and be done with it" crosshairs suggested, pointing towards you with one of his blasters. Drift was about to defend you but you beat him to it.

"Excuse me, who do you think you're calling a measly human" you questioned stepping out from the protection of drift and walking towards crosshair. He raised his gun towards you ready to fire. "I have a name thank you very much, and it was thanks to me that drift could be reunited with you guys" you start, crosshairs, clearly not about to listen to anything you have to say, tried speaking but you cut him off, "and for your information, I'm not one of those government morons out to get you, i've risked everything trying to help drift find optimus prime so before you go jumping to conclusions and shooting up the place, how about you take a second and listen to what I have to say" you finish, now standing a few feet away from crosshairs.
