3rd Person POV

"I'm board. Isn't there something we can do?", Bumblebee asked.

"Maybe we can prank someone?", Sari suggested, "It is April 1st after all."

"What's so special about April 1st? Its just another day.", Bumblebee asked.

"Well, April 1st is what we humans call, April fools day. We prank someone by saying 'watch out there's a venomous spider!' they'll react to it then when they look at you, you say 'April Fools.' ", Sari explained.

"I think we should prank Prowl.", Bumblebee suggested.

"Oh! Great idea. He's seemed upset about something over the past couple days. Maybe we can cheer him up with a prank!", Sari cheered.

The two got to work on doing what they needed to do, which was easy since Prowl had to go on patrol. They snuck in Prowl's room and looked for something they could use to get information on what makes Prowl happy. Bumblebee spotted a book on Prowl's bedside table.

"Hey, look. That might be useful. It has Prowl's name on the cover.", the two of them walked over to it and started looking through the journal that had several entries dating from back when he was fifteen in human years.

They got to a page that caught their eye. It was about Amanda.

'Entry 5,610. March 28.

Amanda and I started talking about my spark mate and daughter at around 5 pm. As I was explaining to Amanda about my daughter, I remembered what I had seen Amanda turn into when she went after Megatron. Both my daughter and Amanda have the exact same paintjob and optic color.

I have concluded that Amanda Lee Sumdac is, in fact, my long lost daughter.

End of Entry.'

Bumblebee and Sari stared at the last sentence before setting the book down exactly as they found it and running out of the room.

Normal POV

"Amanda!", I heard Bumblebee and Sari yelling my name.

The two of them threw open the door that lead to my room and ran in. I growled.

"I'm busy.", I said and threw a dagger at my ceiling.

"We know who your real father is!", the two of them jumped up and down excitedly.

"How? I never told you his name.", I said, trying to not let my emotions rise as my father taught me.

"We read his journal.", Bumblebee said.

"You what?! Do you not know how private someone's life maybe?! You both have no right to look through someone else's journal. Bumblebee, I thought your father raised you better. In fact, I know he did. And Sari, Isaac wouldn't be very happy if he found out you had read someone's journal!", I yelled.

"What's going on?", Optimus asked as he walked into the room.

"Nothing!", Bumblebee said.

"Bumblebee, don't lie to your father. Tell him what you did.", I demanded.

"I-I read one of the bot's journals. I invaded his private life.", Bumblebee said.

"Who's journal did you read?", Optimus asked, rather disappointed in his son.

"Prowl's.", Bumblebee said.

"Now, go apologize to him. Both of you!", I said, they nodded and left, "Kids. They think they can prank me by saying they know my father? And here I thought Isaac told Sari not to prank me years ago. Those two are in so much trouble."

I growled and threw a dagger at the wall, not caring where it landed. The dagger didn't even touch the wall when a spear was thrown at it, causing it to come back to me. Prowl walked in the room.

"What did your father tell you about daggers?", Prowl asked me.

"That they are good for defeating your enemy and a good thing to just throw at the wall instead of at someone's face.... or was that my mom that told me to throw it at a wall?", I responded.

"Daggers are good for combat, and a good stress reliever. Just don't throw them in the house.", Prowl said, "They are dangerous tools."

I nodded and set the dagger back in it's case. Prowl looked around the room. I had daggers in picture frames everywhere. One of them caught his eye.

"Where'd you get this one?", Prowl asked and gestured to an old rusted spear.

"My father. He got it from his mentor and gave it to me. He was training to be a ninja. My mom took me to watch him train one day and I ended up copying his movements. Ever since that day, I've been training to be a ninja. I finished my classes just before I came to Sumdac towers.", I explained, "My father is my inspiration to all of this. Whenever I see Optimus and Bumblebee having fun with Sari, I get upset because I didn't have a father to have fun times with. Then earlier today, Bumblebee and Sari came running in here claiming that you were my dad. They said that they read your journal. I didn't believe them though, Sari always plays pranks on me every April Fools day and I always get her back."

Prowl froze when I told him that the two had told me that he was my father.

"Don't ever leave here without me and never get out of my sight.", Prowl ordered.

"Why?", I asked, "They lied to me..... Didn't they?"
