As exploring the metro was fun it didn't exactly suffice as you had kept wandering aimlessly it appears. Looking around before coming to that of an area one that engrossed with many other Cybertronians.

Your optics widened in curiosity never seeing accouterments like this before. A small group much like your size ran past laughing and playing with flying toys that were shooting rubber spheres at them only to have them laughing and running away as some even tried throwing the spheres at each other without being hit.

A smile crept onto your facial plate finding it enjoyable as how much fun it would be to join them. But they had already left before you could even catch up to them leaving you to wander without a sense of direction.

A mech thanked one if the vendors who offered an orange case filled with a translucent looking blue glowing liquid. They weren't exactly looking on where they were walking as the case was taking all their field of vision from its ponderous size.

Tipping on your side just to avoid being stepped on causing the mech to stumble from hearing a staggered gasp underneath them and drop the case as they collapsed to the ground.

"Ow.." You breathed opening your optics to see you had stuck your hands outstretched on the ground and feeling as crushing numbness on both servos. Lifting your helm up to see the case had actually fallen in your grasp.

"That's a great catch you got there!"

A voice sounding burgeoning and pleasant caught your attention. Glancing to the mech that had fallen getting back on their pedes. Their size towering over yours no figure. Holding up the case for them to take with your small arms extending up for them barely able to hold the entire case by yourself.

Luckily they took it from your grasp before you could fall onto your knees out of the exhaust already.

"I'll be sure to repay ya someday little mite. Till then" They thanked walking away with their case. Watching as they left with the reflection of the luminous sky on their form distinguishing their paint of red then to blue.

Taking a moment before your sense brought you back to reality. Looking around to see that most shops were still open while some were already closed. Out of the corner of your optic lens, there was a metallic piece of metal on the ground. Being curiously drawn to the gleaming object finding it once turned over to have a screen.

Titling your helm at the strange item in your grasp before tapping it screen having it blink on with patterns of language that seemed off to you but that could just be from your young mind still developing.

It had started to become dark. The city no longer all pretty and bright as it did before. It was now reflective with orange and yellow lights that gave everything an uncultured brownish-green color.

The screen was the only source of light you had to guide you through this city that you had never been or have any idea of where it is exactly. So, there you were wandering as anxiety was creeping up as there wasn't anyone around and all the lights were turned on in some of the buildings showing some bots are still awake enjoying themselves with those who they knew while you remained outside wandering.

Taking a look back at the screen seeing as it dimmed. Tapping the screen to make it bright once more but noticed a crack that went directly across the screen. Thinking back to when the mech had stumbled earlier brought you to think that he may have dropped this as well.

Somewhere in your processor, the thought he may coke looking for it again tomorrow would probably be best. A smile crept on your facial plate as you sat down on the spot you stood and tinkered with the screen. Somewhere you suddenly just had the thought of how to fix the screen. Rubbing the screen to buff out the scratches that turned into nothing more but smudges before seeing a loose wire sticking out of the wall beside you.

Holding the wire directly over the cracks guiding the sparks to melt the glass together before buffing it again to make sure everything seemed decent. No having any tell of the time you simply just waited on the corner for it to become light again.

Awakening to the sound of shops opening their heavy doors. Startlingly you mostly as you hadn't expected to fall into recharge. The place was filled with others before you could even know it. Some showing off their new weaponry while others were bickering to each other about being in ranks.

Glancing around to see if the mech from before had appeared only to see nothing similar. Not until you were called out by a waving servo among the crowd. It was the mech. Quickly you picked up the device and ran to the mech who just happened to be walking towards you. Starting once again at him seeing just how small you were compared to him. Holding up what he had dropped and you had fixed for him.

"Oh good, you found it!" They said taking the device from your small form before giving you a nod of thanks. "Say, kid, what are you doing out here by yourself. Don't your guardians know where you are?" They questioned but it seemed like it made no sense to you as you continued to stare up at them.

"Orion I'm sure you can't find that little datapad just anywhere. Are you quite sure you had left it here?"

Glancing behind the mech in front of you to see another mech one of a bigger physique and was sure to be much stronger as well seeing as they were much taller than the mech already in front of you.

"A Sparkling?" They questioned raising their ridge as they inspected "What is it doing out here?"

Taking note of who's designation was who's now made sense so you could learn their names instead of just mental description.

"The sparkling does not seem to understand me," Orion said to the mech beside him as he bent to your altitude studying you over more closely causing you to slightly move back.

"What will you do with a such a thing?" Questioned the mech as they looked at their ally beside them shaking their helm "There is no possible way of taking care of something so fragile given the current state of Cybertron already."

"I am aware of Cybertrons faults Megatronus. But I will not allow this sparkling to become one of them as this will be one step closer to a start." Orion stated giving a slight smile at you that made you feel jittery and looked away for a moment not having much of an interaction with anyone until now.

Megatronus didn't seem to object to his partners standing. Not sure where this was going to lead Megatronus scooped you up and placed you onto his shoulder plates. Instinctively you held onto him looking at him as he glanced at you "I too will not allow a sparkling to fall."
