It had been a week since Luna had been taken away from Knock Out and she had gotten to know Bumblebee. She had returned at sun up that morning and had immediately gone straight to her bed. She hadn't even bothered to get up until noon that day because she was so tired. When she woke she struggled to remember the night but it did come back to her once she cleaned herself, wiping the dried blood from her head and face. Since then she had returned to normal. After careful thinking she had worked out what Knock Out was doing with her automotive lift and had finished his handy work which had allowed for her to fix the vehicle. She had taken it for a test drive around her home to make sure it was working fine but even then when her mind was concentrating on something else it still managed to wonder to why she hadn't see Knock Out in many days, he hadn't even tried to contact her.

She figured that he must be worried about her considering that he didn't trust the autobots whether he admitted that they were the good guys or not. She had called Jack mid-week to let him know that he car had been repaired and tested so that he could come and pick it up seeing as she didn't have the means to drop it off and go back home without spending most of the day walking back. But even then it at least would give her something to do while she waited for Knock Out. Even so while she had scheduled for Jack to come by that day to pick up the car she had received a couple of calls from people that required assistance with their computers and a few that had asked her to come by as a professional technician to either make quick repairs or modification's.

The last thing Luna expected when she first set up shop was lots of calls about her help but she was grateful for it as it kept her in business, allowing her to live sustainably. She had driven her motorcycle and picked up two of them, taking the computers and their monitors back home to take a look at them.

Luna presently had both spread out across her work bench below her large screen attached to the far right wall. She was currently going over one of the monitors that she had picked up, it was opened up and bits and pieces were spaced out. Luna wore her black jeggings with a red tank top. Red sneakers cover her feet while she stood over the bench. Her hair was tied back in to a ponytail and as always her long fringe swept over her left eye. She had curled her hair earlier that day to give her hair more of a bounce even as it was tied back.

As she was working her phone began vibrating on the side of the bench, she had put it on silent so that she would not be disturbed while she worked. Even so she couldn't help but look over to the message that she had received, she had to make sure it wasn't Knock Out quickly messaging her to let her know he was alright. A little bit of hope on her face slowly faded as she read the message about the truck she bought the other day would be dropped off tomorrow. Suppose it was something else to keep her mind occupied on seeing as the vehicle would need fixing up.

After reading it she went straight back to her work, there was no need to send a reply or make a fuss over it. It was obvious that she was giving her work a lot of concentration as she frowned and her tongue stuck out slightly. It didn't take long before her attention was ripped from the computer to the sound of an approaching engine. She already knew that it wasn't Knock Out mostly because he would rev his engine a lot to get her attention or to just show off and the noise was little different, it seemed quite violent. Luna automatically assumed that it was Jack and Ben coming to pick his blue classic car up seeing as he said he would drop by a few days ago. So she didn't hesitate to go open one of her doors up for them and then return to her work while she waited for them arrive.

She listened intently while she fiddled with the processor of the monitors making slight adjustments with a screwdriver and a pair of tweezers. Even when she heard the car pull up and the two exit she still kept her back to them. She wasn't sure if she wanted their company at the moment, she longed for Knock Out's company but that didn't seem to be happening and now had a new urge to not be alone. Even so Jack and Ben wouldn't stick around they would most likely chat for about five minutes before leaving again.
