Sparklight's pov

I am now officially an Autobot. My Father still sees me as a human and I don't like it. I tell him everyday that I'm not a kid anymore. I'm 12 yrs old and he sees me like I'm 10. I love how he cares more but I don't want him to care too much. He's acting like Mom wen she found out I got into a fight at the preschool....

Flashback begins......

I can see hazes of the principals door. I can see my mother screaming to the agents about not taking care of me. And then my eyesight turned blue. It looked like a computer screen. I used this scanning option and I scanned the area to see skeletons yelling and flailing their arms. Suddenly my eyesight turned back to normal and my mother tells me to say good bye to the school. We're officially kicked out.

Flashback ends....

So I walked into the main room of base and my dad is typing up his last letter to the president. He was concerned about the behavior of the armed forces towards me. I don't know anymore, its his life. My mistake was sneaking up on my dad. He was startled and he yelled at me, "Jennifer Luna Paxxon, why in hell's name would you sneak up on me?!" I teared up because he's never yelled at me before. I put my head down, pushed him away, and turned around. I said, "You know what? You've changed a lot since you've been here. I notice now that you get stressed.... anyway, I came here to bring you Uncle Ratchet's report.... Here.... I hope you're satisfied.." I threw the papers at him and he just stared like he was possessed. He blinked a few times and he was about to say something until I walked away. Hopefully, he'll change his mind about not going to Cybertron.

Later on that day......

I walk into the main part of base and see everyone looking at me. The woman from before asked me if I made up my mind. I waved my hands up and shushed her right before dad would find out. Too late, he found out. He looks at me in confusion and asks," Jenny? What is she talking about?" She starts to explain what I was talking about. He is at first understanding and then comes anger. He doesn't yell at me but he does ground me. He grounds me for 3 months. But she asks again, "Jennifer Luna Paxxon, Would you like to be part of the Automen." I ask, "Do I need my father's permission?" She nods side to side. I look up at him and he looked angry. I sighed and thought about it. When I was done, I looked at the woman and said, "Sure, why not? My father doesn't like me anyway." He widens his optics and marches to his quarters.

A little later and I came into his room. He was asleep in truck mode. I snuck in and went into him and tried to wake him up quietly. Didn't work. Then I tried the old fashioned way where I put 2 speakers besides him and I got 2 microphones and smushed them together to get a high pitched scream. He transformed and said, "Jennifer! This is...." "I know, I know. Unacceptable, but I need to talk to you." He stops and sits down. He taps next to him and I sit there. He asks what's wrong.

I look up and I start this whole apoligy speech. After a little bit, he stops me and says, " I'm sorry."
"For what?" I say. "For yelling at you." He smiles and says, "I know you don't want to but we have to go Cybertron. Ratchet found a way to revive Cybertron without the Matrix of Leadership. So I won't have to sacrifice myself. He got the container filled with the allspark and were placeing it tonight. Do you wanna come with us?" I say, "Sure, I don't need to be in the Automen. Maybe soon."

At midnight......

I went through the ground bridge after everyone said their farewells and I said,
"The years I've been on this planet were the best ones of my life. I hope that I can see you guys one last before you guys pass on. Jack, never lose sight of what's important. Miko, don't always rock on but always roll with the flow of life. And Raph, don't be like these two. Be greater than them." And I gave them each a gift. For Jack, a custom motorcycle that ran on energon and transformed into a smaller robotic friend really. For Miko, a guitar signed by Skillet and Three days grace. For Raph, a computer with pictures and videos of him and Bumblebee.

After that, I walked towards the portal and I took one more look around.....
And I started to remember the times I had in the last 3 or 4 years I've been as Jennifer. Now I'm becoming something greater. A friend, a commander, a daughter, and an Autobot. Hopefully someday though, I will have a father that will have fun and a team to call my own.

We went through not knowing what was on the other side.
