"This car's a pretty good driver." Mikaela stated.

"I know." Sam and I said.

"Jinx, Washington, you owe me a Mountain Dew." I quickly said. Sam rolled his eyes at me before looking back at Mikaela.

"Why don't you go sit in that seat, there?" Sam asks.

"I'm not going to sit in that seat. He's driving." Mikaela insisted.

"Well, maybe you should sit in my lap." Sam suggested.

"Why?" Mikaela asks weary.

"Well, I have the only seat belt here and Max and Dakota are in the back. You know safety firsts." Sam said, as if on cue the seat belt around me tightens, I smiled.

"Yeah, all right." Mikaela moved to Sam's lap and he pulls the seat belt around them. Smooth move Sam. "You know, that seat belt thing was a pretty smooth move." Hey, she read my mind :P. "You know what I don't understand? Why, if he's supposed to be, like, this super-advance robot, does he transform back into this piece-of-crap Camaro?" Oh no, she did not just insult my Bee! Wait...my Bee? What the hell's wrong with me? Bee slams on his breaks.

"Oh, see? No. Great...No, that doesn't work. See?" Sam and Mikaela gets out but before Max and I can only for Bee to shut his door and drives off.

"Bee, I'm so sorry. Your car form is not a piece-of-crap. At least not to me." I tried assuring but fell sideways from Bee only driving on his two right wheels on the side. "Whoa!" I held up Max before he almost crushes me. "Max, why do you have to be so damn heavy?" Max whines in embarrassment. We drive by a 2007 Camaro just for Bee to scan it and starts to transform into it. "Oh, sweet hot mama." I breathed and smiles big, I felt Bee heat up and the seat belt tightens. We drove up to the two love birds and they get in with a big smile on Sam's face.

(Cue that music)

Bee drives into a restricted area and we all get out as we watch four asteroids fall to Earth.

"Angels rain down like visitors from heaven." I whispered what Bee said earlier. Sam grabs Mikaela's hand and told us to follow where a asteroid landed which wasn't far from where we were.

"Come on, let's go." Sam ushered. We stopped at the sight to see a big metal thing laying there on the ground. When we got back to Bee, drive us into an alleyway and let us out again as we watch a red and blue flamed semi truck and three others surround us. When the semi truck was just a foot away from us it transformed.

"Oh, my God." I whispered, when it was almost done the others started to do the same and I gotta tell ya it was amazing. The red and blue flamed robot knelt down to our height, his face close to ours.

"Are you Samuel James Witwicky, descendant of Archibald Witwicky and you, Dakota Marie Evergreens, descendent of John Evergreens?" His voice was baritone and held authority.

"Yeah." Sam and I replied.

"My name is Optimus Prime. We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron." Optimus introduced.

"But you can call us Autobots for short." Said the once ambulance vehicle.

"Autobots." Sam said trying out the name.

"What's cracking, little bitches?" We turned to the small silver one who did a twirl.

"My first lieutenant. Designation, Jazz." (I have a friend nicknamed Jazz & no I don't not name her after Autobot Jazz) Optimus introduced.

"This looks like a cool place to kick it." Jazz said as he jumps backwards onto the car behind him.

"Wow." Was all I said.

"What is that? How did he learn to talk like that?" Sam asked.

"We've learned Earths languages through the World Wide Web." Optimus explained.
"My weapon specialist, Ironhide." The one in black named Ironhide transformers his hands into cannons and points them at us.

"You feeling lucky, punks?" Ironhide said.

"Holy shit." I said amazed.

"Easy Ironhide." Optimus said.

"Just kidding. I just wanted to show them my cannons." Ironhide defended.

"Man, your cannons are amazing. You gotta show me how they work sometime." I said.

Ironhide looks to me and smirks. "I like this one." I heard an upset wiring from Bee but it just confused me.

"Our medical officer, Ratchet." Optimus gestures to the ambulance bot who is...sniffing the air?

"The boy's pheromone level suggests he wants to mate with the older female." I laughed as I watched Sam and Mikaela distance each other. "And the younger female does not appear frighten by us and is injured." And I shut up my laughter when everyone stares at me.

"I was attacked by two guard dogs, Max here saved me before I became their next dinner." I explained and Max barks, Optimus nods before continuing with the introductions.

"You already know your guardian, Bumblebee."

"Bumblebee right? Explains why you kept calling him Bee." Sam said to me and I nodded.

Bumblebee mimics a boxer. "Check on the rep yep, second to none."

"So you're my guardian, huh?" Sam asked and Bee nodded.

"His vocal processors were damaged in battle. I'm still working on them." Ratchet said as he shoots a laser at Bee's throats making him cough and that made me worry.

Optimus then turns to me. "Dakota, you've already met your guardian."

My brows furrowed together. "What?"

"You know him as Max but his real name is Silverstreak." I looked to Max finding him sitting next to Optimus's foot.

"But, how? My father brought home a puppy not a Cybertronian puppy." I said utterly confused.

"What you humans call animals is what we call Anibots on Cybertron. Unlike Autobots, Anibots have the ability to transform into any animal that is in their breed unit." Ratchet explains.

"Your father, Sargent Evergreens, and his team was attacked by a Decepticon in hiding. Silver streak was near by and was able to defend your father's team but as you know, John lost his leg and his partner, Ace, was nose blind. Knowing that other Decepticons could come back, Silverstreak became their guardian." Optimus also explained.

"But your father was more worried about you that he had Silverstreak take up the form of a German Shepherd puppy and passed on an excuse of him being the son of Ace, your father's partner." Ironhide finished.

"It all makes sense now. His personality was always different, he always seemed smarter than the average dog. The time when he barked at Bee when we first met him. Then with the evil Po-Po cybertronian he went off like crazy. He knew I was in trouble when I was attacked by those guard dogs and he knew to trust Bee. All this time I thought he was my best friend but I never thought he was my guardian." I said in disbelief.

"He still is." Ironhide said.

I look to Max with a soft expression. "I know and there's nothing that could change that. I guess I should start calling him Silverstreak now, huh?" Max or Silverstreak barked and everyone except Optimus chuckled.

"I think he likes his new name better." Jazz said and to back up his guess Max barked again and ran up to me and jumped into my arms with his paws on my shoulders. I stared into his milk chocolate like eyes and only saw love and loyalty. I hugged him and whispered a "thank you" to him.
