*In Margaret's Room*

Margaret slowly combed her long, brown hair, while she looked at her door, that led to the Autobot headquarters main room.

She sighed as she finished braiding her hair, and she looked down on her red spaghetti strap dress, and rubbed the silky cloth it was made out of. She was anxious about her first date, and she was worried if it was going to end well or not.

She slowly stepped out of her room, not noticing her best friend sneak up behind her. Smokescreen secretly stepped closer and yelled, "BOO!"

Margaret screamed as she flipped around and smacked Smokescreen on the helm. She yelled, "Don't fragging do that!" She then froze and noticed the screaming pain in her hand and grasped it and yelled, "Holy frag that hurts!"

Smokescreen rubbed his helm and laughed, "Are you alright?" Margaret huffed and stopped rubbing her bruised hand. She said, "A little anxious about my date."

Smokescreen smiled and put his large servo on the small human femme's shoulder. Margaret's ruby optics glowed happily and she hugged Smokescreen.

Smokescreen sighed, "I need to get you to Jack." He transformed into his alt and Margaret stepped into the passenger side. She pushed her bangs away from her optics and said, "Do you think this date will end well? I'm really nervous. What if the Decepticons-"

Smokescreen stopped her and said, "If the Decepticons try to hurt you, I'll be there for you. I promise you that." Margaret smiled and said, "Your the greatest friend a girl could have."

Smokescreen laughed as he pulled out of base, "I am pretty great, aren't I?"

~On the Nemesis~

Starscream and Knockout walked down a dark hallway, speaking about the techno-organic that Megatron demanded Knockout to catch while she was the weakest.

Knockout looked at the data pad he was holding, that was tracking Margaret's every move. He reported to Starscream, "She's on the move with her Autobot guardian. It looks like she's going to the human Jack's house."

Starscream huffed, "When the Autobot is 10 miles away from the femme, strike."

~Back with Margaret~

Margaret waved to Smokescreen as he disappeared down the street, honking at Margaret and Jack. Margaret laughed, "So, what are we doing tonight, Jacky?" Jack smiled as he took her hand and said, "Well, we're going to walk to the movies, since it's only a block away." Margaret nodded as they both strode down the street.

~Nemesis~

"Knockout! The techno-organic is on the move and she is unguarded! Retrieve her!" Starscream shouted to Knockout, as he turned on the groundbridge.

Knockout transformed and drove through the groundbridge. He drove down the streets of Jasper and passed the movie theater, noticing Margaret and Jack. He parked in an alleyway near the theater, and turned into his holoform.

~With Margaret~

Margaret noticed Knockout's holoform following them to the theater room number 5. She turned to Jack and lightly tugged on his arm she was holding onto and said, "Jack, do you know that red-headed man behind us?"

Jack turned and saw Knockout and his eyes grew wide as they entered the dark movie theater room. Commercials were playing, and there was barely any people in the room.

Jack and Margaret sat down in the front row and Jack made Margaret lay low. He whispered, "It's Knockout! He's in his holoform, he must be looking for us!" Margaret silently gasped, "What are we going to do?"

Jack looked up to see Knockout sit down in a row 5 rows up from them. Jack looked back at Margaret and said, "We are just going to wait it out, see if he leaves. And if he hasn't left when the movie ends, I'll just have to get the Autobots to help."

Margaret nodded in approval and the movie started. All was silent, and the young couple watched the movie. Margaret continually looked back to see that Knockout hasn't left. She sighed, "What do you want from us..."
