Weaponchanger checks their leader and medic's signals to check again until the entrance opened up to reveal the three Autobots and their kids, they transformed back into their robot modes after that. "Where's Optimus and Ratchet?" Bulkhead asked while approaching to the triple-changer, "Duo search, probably detecting any Decepticon activity." "Which reminds us; we'll be going too. Patrol duty." Arcee recalled which Bee to beep which assumed to be a groan. "Bee and Bulkhead-" Now the green mech raised an optic ridge at her, "You rarely asked me to follow you to patrol duty." Arcee shrugs then turned to Weapon, "And you stay here and watch over the kids. We'll be back before you know it." The secretary nodded a bit then the three Bots transformed back into their vehicle modes then drove off. "So, what's on the activities list?" Then a ringing noise got to his audial receptors and looked at where it's from, it's Miko plugging a wire of her electric guitar to the amplifier.

"How about band practice?" "But, we're not a band." Raf told her while covering his ears, "Why so anti-social? Come on, Raf! You play anything?" This caused the boy to let his face changed and pull out his laptop from his backpack, "Umm, keyboard?" This gave the girl an approval, "Laptops and samples, good!" She then turned to Jack, "I sometimes mess around on the harmonica." He chuckled but Miko just gave him a look, "Do I look like I do country?" Weapon decides to intervene a bit, "I think a harmonica sounds lovely. It doesn't need to be just country." Though the human girl didn't buy that, "Nevermind, just cover yourself in fake blood and jump around, screaming." She then pointed at the poor triple-changer, "Weaps, percussion!" "W-Weaps?" Before he can say anything, Miko already spoke, "We'll go for a big industrial sound. DIY, we are a band! You just gotta learn the songs, this one's a ballad; my fist, your face!" She starts playing her guitar with compassion but Weapon, Jack and Raf already covering their ears/audials at that point.

Then his audials picked up another sound, an alarm. He quiet down Miko then she stopped to complain a bit to the Bot, "Oh come on, you can't handle raw power?" "It's the proximity sensor, quick hide!" The kids realised then hid behind his pedes in which they shut the gap between. When the elevator door opened, they already suspect it's Agent Fowler since he comes to the base almost everyday. "Prime!" Weapon straighten their position to look formal, "Agent Fowler. I'm afraid Optimus is not here, including the others. Except me, obviously." He let out a small chuckle but the agent didn't look amused, "Well? Where did he go? Wait, don't tell me..He's out pancaking a mini-mall! Now, I don't know what language you Bots speak on your planet but Prime promised he would handle the Decepticons, and blowing a crater in the middle of Nebraska is not what a word 'handle' means to me!" The triple-changer realized he moved a bit too much because of the guitar wire still attached to the amplifier and is making a noise, "So, you tell Prime-" He didn't get to finish his sentence as he heard it as well and looked down to see a wire, 'Scrap-' The Autobot cursed in processor, "Since when you Bots..electric?" Weapon looked at the kids who are slowly coming out, Raf is the one to say hi, "Umm, hello?" However, the agent did not take this lightly.

"Contact with civilians! Team Prime has really gone off rules this time. Wait, don't tell me; you're running a daycare centre?" Jack is the one who spoke next, "We are interns, student interns." Then Miko, "Earning extra credits in Mechanics! Well, robotics." She looked at the secretary who she didn't mistaken his face for 'What in Primus' namesake are you saying?!'. The agent pinched the top of his nose bridge while walking down the stairs, "Okay..Let's move! I'm taking all three of you into federal custody, for your own protection." The Autobot secretary moved their pede to block the kids apart from the man, "Agent Fowler, with all due respect; we are protecting them. It isn't our choice to recruit human civilians, even worse, young children. Yet we have no choice but to do so." "Is that right? Well, maybe you can explain that to my superiors at the Pentagon!" The agent went to the phone booth and was about to dial the Pentagon, "Ah, please don't use that phone. It's.." Weapon poked the booth with his claw and that made the agent to look at him, "Out of order." The agent threw the phone harshly, "This isn't over, flying car Bot! Not by a long shot!" He went upstairs without noticing Miko mocking him.

The secretary looked at him with concern on their face, "Agent Fowler, the kids only found us by accident. We didn't mean to get them involved in this.." The man just looked at him with a glare, "Then maybe you shouldn't expose yourselves. Publicly." The elevator door closed when he said the last word along with the triple-changer's sigh after that.
