Nahko's POV

"Optimus. With all due respect, the human children are in as much danger here as anywhere! Children?! They have no protective shell! If they get underfoot they will go Squish" Ratchet tells him. He's not wrong.

"Then for the time being, Ratchet, we must watch where we step" Optimus tells him. Suddenly an alarm goes off. Me and the other kids look around confused. Jack asks what the alarm is.

"Just the Proximity sensory, no need to worry" Bee beeps.

"Proximity sensos, someones up top" Raf translates.

"Bee says it's nothing we should be worried about" I add.

"It's Agent Fowler" Ratchet states.

"I thought we were the only humans who know about you guys" Jack says confused.

"Special agent Fowler is our designated liaison to the outside world, as he tends to visit only when there are issues. It may be best if you do not meet him at this time" Optimus tells us. So we go hide around the corner.

"Seven wrecks, thirty four fender benders, a three hour traffic jam, and on particular note numerous reports of a speeding motorcycle of unknown make and a black-and-yellow custom muscle car! So, anything you care to get up your tin chassis, Prime?" Fowler demands as he exits the elevator.

"We have the situation under control, agent Fowler" Optimus assures him.

"They're back, aren't they?" he asks.

"If you are referring to the Decepticons I have doubts that they ever left. Your planet is much too valuable" Optimus tells him.

"Than it's time to wake up the Pentagon" Fowler states. Is he really that stupid? I've seen these guys fight, the human military wouldn't stand a chance. True, they could probably take down one, but not without heavy looses.

"Hear me, agent Fowler. We are your best, possibly your only defense against the Decepticon threat" Optimus tells him.

"Says you" Fowler sneers.

"Hey, fleshy! Did anyone get splattered on that freeway? Team Prime knows when to use force. And how much to use" Bulkhead tells him crashing some sort of machine into a ball.

"Bulkhead! I needed that!" Ratchet exclaims.

"Enough" Optimus tells them and turns back to Fowler. "Millitary involvement will only result in catastrophe. Perhaps you can condone widespread human casualties, agent Fowler. I, however, cannot" he tells him.

"Then do us both a favor and handle this, Prime! Under the radar. Or I will" Fowler tells him and leaves. We come out of hiding.

"Pretty big bearings for a human" Bulkhead states.

"Agent Fowler is concerned for his world Bulkhead, as he should be" Optimus states.

"That maybe true Optimus, but he should treat you all with a little more respect. Especially you" I tell him. "How many times has this team saved Earth?" I ask.

"To many to count" Bee beeps.

"Exactly my point and you will continue to protect Earth from decepticon threat. He should be thankful" I state.

"See, now why can't she be our liaison?" Bulkhead asks.

"She's to young" Ratchet states.

"And still in school" Arcee adds.

"I thank you for your kind words Nahko, but we have dealt with Fowler for the last three years. We do not take any offense from his attitude or ask for thanks for protecting your world" Optimus tells me.
