It was night time that day we had run into the autobots and witnessed their highway fight. I Was walking to my room but stopped at jacks door.
I knocked. "Come in." He mumbled.
I walked in and climbed on his bed. He was at his desk fixing his helmet I guess. He had a screw driver and was screwing the mouth guard visor back on.
"Hey. Let's never speak of today ever again okay?" I asked. I didn't need him getting involved in this disastrous war. The war I was trying so hard to stay away from. Jack didn't need to be in danger 24/7 and this was the only way to keep him out of it. I hoped he understood and didn't make it hard.
"Fine by me. In fact I was just about to ask you the same thing." He said. I let out a breath of relief. "It's funny though. I thought you were the type to jump at the chance to get some action and adventure." Jack said as he put his helmet on his desk and sat at the foot of the bed. I panicked inside. I noted the suspicion in his voice and I thought quickly.
"Not when it includes 30 foot robots that could step on me." I lied and covered myself as I laughed. He did too.
"Promise we won't talk about it?" I asked holding up my pinky.
"Promise." He said wrapping his pinky around mine.
"Good." I got up,"Goodnight Jack." I gave him a hug.
"Night cel." He said calling me by my nickname. I walked out and crawled into my bed. Primus, I hoped we never DID have to talk about it. Even though it hurt my spark to leave my past and two best friends behind, I had to protect Jack and June. They were my family now.
Goodbye Orion and Megatronous.

I walked down the hallways of this horrid school. I was heading to algebra as I groaned. We had a test today and I had spent all week practicing for it. I never understood why humans made these things so hard. The difficulty never stopped me from getting good grades though. I was deep in thought again and didn't notice my name being called at first but when I did, I groaned. Vince.
"Hey Beautiful." He said in his annoying flirtatious tone. It may have worked on other girls but I had lived too long.
"Don't call me beautiful. Unless you want to be girlfriendless when I tell your girlfriend what a dick u are." I smiled sweetly.
"When will you date me?" Vince asked desperately.
"Hmmm? Let's see you've liked me for how long? Like,since, The dinosaur ages? I didn't say yes then I'm not ysaying yes now...so....Never?" I said and walked off. I heard him following me and I snapped.
"Why are you following me?!"
"We have algebra together!" He defended.
I then felt stupid and shut my mouth.
*****
"Finally!" I said as I walked out of school. Jack was beside me. We walked down the stairs.
"Hey Celestia! Hey Jack!" We looked over to see Rafael waving at us. Jack groaned.
"He's so cute." I stated as we walked over to him.
"Listen raf.lets just keep what happened yesterday between us okay?" Jack said rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly. Rafael was about to answer but he didn't get to. A horn sounded 3 times and the black and yellow car from yesterday pulled up by the curb we were standing on. Oh great.
"Jack!celestia! Look!" Rag tugged on jacks sleeve. Me and Jack shared a look.
Bumblebee beeped and opened his door.
"Raf you'll ride with me. Jack you'll ride Arcee and Celestia you have your own ride." He said and I looked over to see the blue Motorcycle from yesterday.
"It...wants us to get in." Jack said.
"No just me. "
"Wa? How do you know that?" Jack asked
"It's said so,Your rides rides over there." Raf pointed to Arcee.
"Raf wait." Jack said
"Hey how's it going." Raf was already climbing into bee.
"Wait!" Jack tried to go after him but they had already sped off.
He looked back at Arcee.
"Come on." He said grabbing my arm and we started walking away.
We walked into an alley way but she sped in front of us. Crap. We just couldn't get away could we?!
"Relax. I just wanna talk to y'all." She said.
"Don't you mean you and your new friend?" Jack snapped. I couldn't believe she snared to talk. Can't we be left alone?!
"Kid there's a lot you don't understand." She said back.
"No we understand! The first rule of robot fight club." I snapped and turned away to walk off.
"And what you need to understand is that we don't need a bunch of talking vehicles following us around trying to get us killed!" Jack yelled gesturing to me.
"Look Jack and....Celestia is it? Your personal safety is exactly why Optimus prime has requested your presence." My eyes widened. Optimus was here too?! Oh no.
"W-I-Optimis who?" Jack stuttered.
"You may be in danger because y'all are one of the few one of the only people who have ever seen us."
"Dudes what are you waiting for? Go with!" The girl me and Jack knew as miko said excited.
"Scrap." I mumbled but not loud enough for anyone to here. Arcee said it too.
*****
I sped after Arcee and Bumblebee with my alt mode.
Miko let out a joyful holler and I heard Jack say,"And why exactly are we taking her?!"
"Rules." Was all Arcee said.
That's when I saw the stop sign. If I was expecting a direction it definitely wouldn't have been straight,Past the stop sign heading into a giant rock as if we were going to crash.
"You do know we're about to head into a wall RIGHT?!" I yelled.
"Relax Celestia." Arcee snapped harshly. That's when the side of the rock opened. Wow.
We sped into the hallways and I looked around. There was a giant Autobot symbol on the floor of what I assume is a silo. A missile Silo.
That's when I saw my oldest friend ratchet and I perked up but then I saddened when I realized he wouldn't recognize me. At least that's what I thought but when my alt mode pulled up he looked at it trying to place where he had seen it. Maybe he did recognize me.
I know bumblebee knew who I was. That scared me. I was so afraid he had told about me but judging by how no one called me out, he didn't. I thank him for that.
"I thought there were three." Ratchet said.
"Haven't you heard? Humans multiply." Arcee said sassily.
"I'm raf." Rafael introduced himself.
"I'm miko." She also introduced herself running to the green Autobot that I knew as Bulkhead.
"Who are you?" Miko asked.
"Bulkhead." He shifted awkwardly as he answered her.
Miko gasped. "Are you a car? No I bet your a truck! A monster truck! Do you like heavy metal? How much do you weigh? Ever use a wrecking ball as a punching bag?" She shot questions 1,000 miles per hour.
Bulkhead looked really uncomfortable.
"So if you guys are robots, who built you?"
"Psh, puh-lease." Ratchet said annoyed. I had to admit that was kind of annoying. The question was not raf.
Then we heard huge footsteps and we looked behind us. Optimus. My eyes widened and I felt like running but my legs were sadly stuck to the floor.
"We are autonomous Robotic organisms from the planet Cybatron." He looked at me and I really almost fainted but instead I quickly looked away. Geez, talk about pressure. Ratchet looked at me suspicious.
I took a peek at him. He was way taller then used to be. He was more buff and looked stronger.
"We are also known as autobots." He said.
"Why are you here?" I asked a little harshly before I could stop myself. He gave her a look that almost resembled recognition but she could tell he didn't know who she was. That was a relief.
"To protect your planet from the decepticons." He answered not taking his optics off of me. I squirmed avoiding eye contact.
"The jokers that tried to bump us off the rode last night." Arcee clarified.
"Okay why are they here?" Jack asked.
"A fair question Jack. In part they are here because our planet is uninhabitable, ravaged by centuries of civil war" Optimus stated.
"Why were you fighting a war?" Raf asked.
"For most, for control over our planets supply of energon. The fuel and blood of all autobots and decepticons alike."
"The combat was fierce and endured for centuries. In the Begining I fought along side someone I considered a brother and a femme who was very dear to me,but in war ideas can be corrupted and it was thus that Megatron lost his way."
"So,What happened to the femme?" Raf asked. My spark lurched.
"She was lost to the stars. Megatron is still out there searching for her. I fear she may be dead." Optimus sighed and i knew his spark hurt. I sighed.
"What was her name?" Miko asked.
"Celestia." My eyes widened as the three looked at me. Shit.
"What a weird coincidence. My sisters name is Celestia." Jack said.
"Yea a BIG coincidence." I mumbled.
"What does any of this have to do with us?" Jack then asked.
"Megatron has not been seen or heard from in some time but if his return is inament as I fear. It could be catastrophic." Optimus answered.
"Your two-wheeler is surprisingly familiar." Ratchet said aloud and I noticed....he had caught on. He knew who I was.
"It's been a long time, Celestia." Ratchet said and Optimus looked at me in what I think I saw as shock.
"Hey ratchet. It could have been longer had you of not said anything." I deactivated my holoform.
"Oh my god!" Jack said shocked. They all looked towards my alt mode. It took me a little to transform but I finally did.
I rolled my shoulders and sighed as I stretched. It had been at least a month since I had transformed.
"Your o-one of them?!" Jack said shocked.
"Yes." I sighed. "I am."
"So your the old friend of this big guy." Miko said pointing to Optimus.
"Y-yes." I stuttered. I didn't wanna make eye contact with him. I didn't know what his facial expression would give.
"Celestia?" Optimus asked. I finally looked up.
"Hey Orion." I said smiling a sad smile.
"It's Optimus Prime now." He snapped. I looked at him and noticed his Optics held anger but the rest of his face was Neutral.
"Wait! You've been keeping this from me?!" Jack snapped angry. "I'm your brother!"
"Look Jack it was for your own safety. I felt that if I told you,you would be in danger. I'm sorry okay? Why do you think i made you promise to never talk about that day?" I said. Jack scowled. I lost his trust again. I snapped my head to the ground.
"Never mind then."

"Activate the space bridge!" Starscream ordered.
"The space bridge opened up its blue light illuminating. Out of it flew a cybatronian jet.
Megatron transformed into his bipedal mode.
"Decepticons! I have returned!"
