TRANSFORMERS: Bumblebee's Boy

ENTER: LEO SPITZ

A/N: So since I don't know TOO much about the living areas of Washington DC, I'm going to be setting where the (soon) Autobot base is closest to near a fictional DC Suburb, and a few fictional areas in the town to make it easier. I figure this is workable, after all, we never did learn where exactly it was settled or what was near it, so just gonna use my imagination here.

And remember how I said Leo was coming soon? Well here he is! Introducing him a bit earlier than the ROTF arc because I want to do some different things with his character. So ready or not, here he comes!

Thanks to my awesome beta, TFPKOFANGIRL yet again for her awesome work on this chapter!

CHAPTER 47
Enter: Leo Spitz

Washington DC was a truly sprawling place, to say the least. And to go a step further, it was probably one of the coolest places that Trevor had seen. They had hit up a couple of the monuments, taking in the sights and discovering a great deal of history. Trevor had heard a lot of this during American History at Tranquility High School, and mostly marveled at the monuments themselves. But Jazz seemed to really enjoy learning more and more about Earth culture, and furthermore Earth history for that matter. As a result, Trevor allowed him to ask as many questions as he wanted as he and his holoform walked through each monument, talking about as much as he knew and throwing his two cents in.

But after a while, both were worn out from these, and decided to check out the area they'd be in itself. Trevor noticed that, only forty minutes from their possibly new base, there was a group of suburbs. They weren't glamorous but they were nice, a lot nicer than Tranquility for that matter. They passed what would (he guessed) be either of his new schools. One was tall, new, and state of the art, with a lot of security. As far as private school's went though, Trevor supposed that it wasn't so bad, though he had a feeling he still wouldn't like the uniforms.

On the other hand, the public school, which was about a block down, was different. To his surprise, the smaller size to it, and older architecture made him feel a little homesick. It didn't quite have the same "charm" that a place like Tranquility High School had, but it none-the-less reminded him of it between the somewhat-chipping paint, and overall mundane look. Trevor had to shake himself out of those thoughts though, why on Earth would he even think to miss a place like Tranquility High School, after all?

And so, Jazz had driven them to a local burger joint, which Trevor didn't complain about. After the long flight, and even longer morning of sight-seeing, he had worked up a great deal of appetite, and in general he could have wolfed down a horse. So he'd sent Jazz's holoform to get a table within viewing distance and taken a line in the 60s-themed "sock hop" type burger joint, waiting rather impatiently given how crowded the place seemed to be. It was in that moment that, though he didn't know it, he was about to meet one of the most important friends he was going to make in his life. Even if later on, it would seem ironic, especially under the circumstances they were about to meet.

It started with a hand clasping his shoulder. At first, Trevor had expected to turn to see Jazz, but instead he was looking into the eyes of a young latino boy his age. He was a little taller than him, his hair frizzy and messed up in many directions, and his dark eyes were wide. "Dude, you gotta help me out here. Like legit, please," Trevor blinked slightly. "Turn around, turn around. And start talking to me about anything. Like anything, I don't care what it is, tell me your life story if you have to," He added.

Trevor blinked slightly, and was about to ask what was going on. But the look in the boy's eyes screamed desperation, and he simply looked forward like he asked. Allowing the boy to slide in beside him, not that it mattered much, there was no one in line behind him. "What have you gotten yourself into?" Trevor asked.
