It was quiet for a beat as everyone's eyes locked onto you, now exposed to their curious yet alarmed (at least for the newer bots) optics. You couldn't help but grimace and curl into yourself slightly, unnerved by their gazes as you planted your hands on the digits holding you, slightly pushing away as if to give you any space from them all.

"A human?" A baritone voice spoke up in the stillness, followed by large, heavy footsteps coming your way. You couldn't help but fidget as the largest of them all stepped in front of you in three easy steps. The red and blue mech glanced down at you in confusion, noting his (surprisingly human-like–) eyebrows furrow and a frown set upon his face towards the red bot holding you. "Cliffjumper, explain."

Oh, this one meant business.

"Saw her hiding behind some of the rocks on the field. She saw me fighting some con's and I saw one going after her so I saved her. Long story short, there wasn't anywhere else to put her safely so I ended up calling for a bridge and brought her back here to base, sir."

The tall one kept quiet to process what Cliffjumper reported, leaving the other two bots the opportunity to approach you both.

The yellow one with the widest bright blue eyes you could see approached the closest, leaning in towards you in his comrades hands. Seeming to be a bit giddy, yet cautious, the bot brought himself to be eye level with you as soft whirring of the rims of his optics focusing could be heard.

<BBZZRY RRTS BRSTST RRTS->

What the heck.

<--ERRTZ BZZRTS ZZRT>

Buzzing, beeping? Was this another language? Could he not speak? Was this code? Dare you say it sounded a little familiar-

<RRTZ BSSTS BURTZZ - there - ZZRT> There- you knew it sounded familiar- although it maybe should have taken you longer to figure out, much less understand, it did sound strikingly familiar to a some audio coding you have loosely learned in a coding class your dad pushed you for when you were a little younger, although you do regret not studying it more afterwards. What kind of code, you couldn't recall; there were a lot of things you don't really remember from when you were young-

"Yeah, just right out in the open. Not sure what she was doing there or what she did to have a 'con chase her like crazy heh heh," Cliffjumper chuckled as he raised you the slightest bit higher to be at his optic level now. "She sure didn't make it any easy for them to catch her though that's for sure," You think see him glance over to the larger green bot of the group, who was silently watching and keeping his distance. "Think she's got wrecker potential Bulk?"

The called bot simply let out a hum, glancing at the human and away, almost appearing awkward on how to approach the two bots with the human now. "Uh, maybe, not sure - don't know if a human would want to go fight some con's though."

"She shouldn't be here at all, point blank. This isn't a place for humans to be." Muttering, Arcee looked up at the human as she stayed seated hunched over on the metal crate she sat on. "Too dangerous for one."

The shuffle of heavy feet caught everyone's attention in the room, immediately being dragged back to the one who seemed to be the leader of them all. He simply held out an arm to the side and motioned with his servo to the area she was plucked on, Cliffjumper immediately getting the message and gently setting you down before backing around to give the tall one space.

Gently, he crouched down to be eye level with you, almost as if to not scare or intimidate you as he observed you for a moment longer before he started speaking. "My name, is Optimus Prime. We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cyberton, also known as Autobots."
