Nikki and Danni

Nikki and Danni trudged into the Autobot base, glancing around the room and tightly keeping their mouth shut. They looked to see the other three kids were hanging in their normal area, near the tv, and sighed. Atleast they wouldn't be caught by them.

Optimus and Ratchet noticed their appearance, and smiled. Turning towards them, they walked up to the two teenagers.

"Hello, Danielle. Hello, Nicole. How are you?" Optimus asked, making the two very uncomfortable.

"Yeah. We're-we're good." Danni shrugs.

Ratchet narrows his optics, feeling as if something is up. "Are you two alright?"

"We didn't do anything!" Nikki sputters.

Danni's eyes widen and she quickly pulls Nikki aside. Taking her around the corner while Ratchet and Optimus stare off in wonder. What's gotten into those two? They questioned.

"What's the matter with you?" Danni whispered.

"I can't help it," Nikki glances around. "I just feel so guilty."

"Well get a grip! No one must know anything, alright? Alright."

And they walk back to the main room with Ratchet and Optimus watching them closely, they sit on the couch with the other teenagers. Nikki sat cross legged, slightly rocking back in forth while Danni slouched down on the couch, trying to avoid Ratchet.

"Why don't we play a game?" Miko proposes, handing Nikki a game controller.

"Uh, sure." She shrugs.

And they begin playing, racing their cars and collecting coins. Miko was enjoying herself, mostly because she was winning; however, Nikki was nervous and kept running off to the side, almost losing the game.

Once the game finished, Nikki set down her game controller in a flash and stood up, motioning for Danni to follow her as she took a few steps towards the stairs.

"Hey! What happened to the game?" Miko questions, raising a brow.

Jack narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms. "Yeah, what's going on, Nicole?"

"N-nothing! I just...have some homework to do is all." She replied, rushing off.

"Homework, that's all you could think of?" Danni slapped her. "You don't even do your homework!"

"Well I couldn't think of anything else!"

Danni and Nikki began speed walking to the back if the Autobot base, attempting to hide from everyone so they can think of a proper excuse for what happened. What they didn't realize was that Ratchet and Optimus were following close behind, careful to not being seen.

Danni stopped behind a blank wall along with Nikki, both just as worried as before.

"Listen, we need to get out of here. No one can know what happened!" Danni shouted.

Nikki nodded sadly, looking back around the corner only to see Optimus and Ratchet standing in front of them with their arms crossed.

"Care to explain what's going on, Daniella?" Ratchet questioned.

"Nicole?" Optimus added.

Danni rolled her eyes. "Don't use our real names!"

Nikki glanced back to Danni, and then looked back to the two Autobots. "We ran over a bunny!" She covered her mouth quickly.

Danni gasped.

Ratchet and Optimus took a step back, frowning slightly.

"I-I'm sorry?" Optimus said.

"We ran over a bunny..." She looked away, and Danni glared at her.

Optimus straightened back to his original height and shook his head, walking off. Ratchet stayed behind, holding back a chuckle.

"It's not funny!"

"Oh, but it is." He paused. "It was just a bunny, you didn't do much damage."

"A bunny is important too!" Nikki argued, and Ratchet sighed.

Danni crossed her arms, not wanting to explain that she was apart of this as well. Too embarrassing of a story for her to live with; Nikki can take all the blame.

Ratchet shook his head and walked off. I can't believe this is what they got worked up over, he thought.

Nikki was truly embarrassed now, and wished to never speak of this again. However, Ratchet would never let her live it down, especially if the other kids helped him pick on her for it.
