TF1 | Jazz Melody Pt. 1: Our Cars Are Aliens

Pt. 1 of @susangiacomin's request

Melody doesn't believe her friend, San claiming his car is an alien until the two encounter an alien robot, and their two cars rescue them before fighting the other robot. They learn about the conflict they've gotten themselves into and help the Autobots.

"Yeah, ok, Sam," Melody comments, hearing Sam argue his yellow junker of a Camaro is an alien robot, "I'll see you later today."
Melody ends the call and walks out onto the porch, not expecting to see a silver Pontiac Solstice in her driveway.

Scrap, I knew this was a bad hiding place. Jazz thinks as he watches the femme approach him. Why did I listen to Bumblebee?
The femme walks around the cat, confused as to why the car is in her driveway. She didn't find any proof that someone owned the car.
"How strange, and I doubt the police will help me," the femme says, looking at the license plate.
Jazz quickly creates a key, hoping to keep the femme from finding out he's not a normal car.
:: Bee, I have a situation. ::
Jazz isn't pleased that Bee told him to do nothing until further notice. Aware that the femme will seek to use Jazz as her vehicle, Jazz doesn't get a chance to argue that the femme will end up caught in their conflict before the femme opens the door.
"How did I miss this key? Why would the key to the car be left here?"
The femme is confused but proceeds to turn the car on.

With no proof that the silver car is stolen, Melody goes to the DMV to see if she can legally register the car. They'd know if the car was stolen.
:: Bee, the human is doing something called registration. ::
:: It's fine.::
Jazz doesn't like how chill Bee is about this. The human who bought him doesn't know yet what they've gotten themselves into.

"Hey, nice car," Sam comments as Melody gets out of the car.
"Yeah, uh...I found it."
The two meet at McDonald's, planning on eating lunch outside. Melody sees the car Sam claims is an alien, which definitely needs buffing.

Bumblebee and Jazz watch their charges walk down the alleyway. Not worried until they see red and blue lights. Knowing Barricades would have scanned an Earth police car.
A few minutes pass before they hear screaming and rush to the source.

"Get in your car, Melody!" Sam yells before getting into his Camaro.
The two Autobots drive their humans far out of the city, with Barricade closely following them.
What the fuck is going in? Melody questions as she realizes not only is the police car chasing her and Sam for no reason, but her car is driving itself. Following Sam's Camaro. Now, Melody wonders if the Camaro is also driving itself.

Once the two vehicles reach a power plant outlet, far from the humans, the two humans occupying the vehicles are tossed out and watch their cats turn into giant robots along with the police car.
"So, about your car being a giant alien robot...."
"See, I told you! I saw-."
A tiny robot appears and attacks Sam.
Melody tries to help but realizes she needs a weapon. Hoping a tool will work as she runs to the tool garage.

"He's dead," Sam says, and the two walk toward the giant robots that are their cars.
Melody can't believe that Dam was right about his car being an alien robot and that her car is also an alien robot.

Melody questions why Sam is standing in the tunnel.
"I have no idea. I questioned why Bumblebee would choose to transform into junk," Sam explains.
"You insulted him."
"Great, my four thousand dollars just drove off."
The two didn't think Bumblebee would return looking like new.
"Now you have a new car," Melody smiles and gets back into Jazz.

The two are taken to a spot to watch the rest of the team crash land nearby.
"So, what did we get ourselves into?" Melody asks.
"I have no idea. All I wanted was a car."
"We need to head to the meeting point," Jazz tells the two humans.
They have no idea what they've gotten themselves into. Jazz thinks, along with the feeling of worrying about Melody getting hurt in this conflict.

(Time skip. Melody takes the place of Makayla, mostly)

Melody watches Jazz fight the much larger Megatron, terrified.
"You want a piece of me?!" Jazz yells.
"No, I want two pieces!"
"No!" Melody yells as Megatron is about to rip Jazz in half.
"Megatron!" Optimus yells.
The Decepticon drops jazz.
"Prime!"
Melody takes the risk and runs to Jazz, hoping he's ok.
"Jazz?" She calls out.
"What are you doing here? It's not safe," Jazz argues as his leader and Megatron fight not far from him.
Melody sees that Jazz only has minor injuries. She continues to get closer to him. Jazz notices Melody is afraid, but she slowly calms down. Realizing Melody isn't scared of the conflict she's in the middle of but thought he was seriously injured.

At the end of the battle, the cons are killed, and Bumblebee has his voice back. Bumblebee and Jazz wish you to stay with their charges, and both humans agree. Melody can't believe what she's gotten herself into, but there's something else she can't believe.
