"How were you able to do that??" Miko asked as she kept poking and punching me.

"Ow. Ow. Ow!! That hurts!!" I shouted as she backed away.

"Sorry, just wanted to see if it was still working." She said as I sighed and shook my head.

"I forgot to ask, Emily. What do you do??" I heard Arcee ask as I faced her.

"Well, I protect the world from villains like Killer Frost, Captain Cold, Zoom, Poison Ivy, etc. And I work with this group called the Justice League. My dad is a member of the team but I rarely go there because I don't really like being on a team." I said as I leaned back in the chair.

"So, who's the Justice League??" Bulkhead asked as my eyes went wide.

"You never heard of the Justice League??" He shook his head.

"O.K. Well you have Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Martin Manhunter, Hawkwoman, Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Red Arrow, Nightwing, Zatanna, Tigress,Aqualad, Aquaman, Icon, Rocket, Flash, Impulse, Kid Flash, Supergirl, Power Girl, Vigilante, Black Canary, Huntress, Red Hood,Red Robin, Robin, Spoiler, Batgirl, Oracle, Superboy, Booster Gold, Starfire, Beast Boy, Raven, Cyborg and a lot more. Their this team of Superheroes that go across the world to save people's lives and defeat their enemies." I said as Jack, Miko, and Raf nodded.

"Wow. You're lucky." Raf said as I smiled.

"Emily. May Ratchet and I speak to you alone??" I heard Optimus ask as I turned to face him and I nodded. He then placed his hand down and I climbed onto it.

He then walked us both towards Ratchet.

"So, what's going on??" I asked as Ratchet seemed like he was taking a deep breath.

"Emily. I don't know how to tell you this but, I believe that you're not just a human." He said as I gasped.

"What do you mean?? I'm a like Cyborg or an alien??" I asked as he faced me.

"You see, we have this thing called Energon which is our blood and life fuel. But humans' blood and our blood are completely different. But according to Ratchet's calculations and the metal on your skin, you are half Cybertronian." Optimus explained as I just stared.

"Okay, I'm fine. Im fine." I said as I placed a finger on my cheek.

"Nope." I said as I fainted.
