April's POV;

(WHAT IRONHIDE LOOKS LIKE^^^)

"IronHide huh?"

He must've seemed to think that I was making fun of him, or something like that because the car heated up, "You, uh, don't have to call me that, s-some people call me 'Hide o-or" I laughed and cut him off, "IronHide, do not fret, your designation is perfect the way it is."

If it was possible, the truck heated up even more. The I realised something suddenly,

"IronHide, are you blushing?" The fans kicked on and I laughed again.

"Stop making fun of me." He said gruffly and I stopped to make him feel better.

I decided to ask him something, "What are you? Is there more of your kind out there IronHide?"

"I am a Cybertronian being, you may call me an Autobot for short, and yes, there are more of me. Like some of the guys on my team, Bumblebee-" I interrupted him, "The camaro?"

He sighed in annoyance, "Yes the camaro. There's also Ratchet, Jazz, me and our leader Optimus Prime. We came from our home planet Cybertron after it was reduced to waste. We've traced something important to us here but unfortunately, so has our enemy, the Decepticons." I nodded, I was about to ask him to eleborate, but my finger brused over the symbol, which I was guessing for the Autobots, I was thrown into a different world. The feeling was exhilerating, bright blue colours whipped past so fast, they appeared as streaks.

Suddenly, it all stopped. I looked around and found that I was standing on a meteor, floating in space. Out of the blue, a humanoid figure started materialising in front of me. When it was done forming, a tall powerful looking Cybertronian stood in front of me. I think that was what it was.

I gulped nervously, "Greetings?" I was afraid that the way I talked would anger the powerful being, it has with some of my teachers at school.

He laughed, a deep thunderous laugh and looked at me, "Hello there, sparkling."

I guess you could say that I expected more of a chat, or atleast an explanation directly from him, but no. Just after he uttered those three words, I was sucked into memories I didn't even know I had.

FLASHBACKS;

"Her designation should be SoulStar."

"Are you okay sweetspark? Oh SoulStar, you little trouble maker."

"Oh look! She shifted for the first time!"

"Oh look at the mess you've made."

A FEW VORNS LATER;

"Oppi, this is BumbleBee,wha-no! He's not my boyfriend!"

"Momma, look what I made!"

"Oh you look so pretty with your new paint job! You'll have all the mech's lining up!"

"Moooooom!"

A FEW VORNS LATER;

"By 'Bee, I have to go help my family out with this war. I love you brother, dearly."

"Momma nooo!"

"Run SoulStar! Run!"

END OF FLASHBACKS;

Another moment of flashing, bright blue colours, and then I was sitting back inside my truc-IronHide.

"April? You there? Hello?" My seat shook gently and I snapped out of my wonder. I-I remember everything now.. Who I was before I was sent to Earth, who my family was-Optimus Prime and TigerRunner. I remembered why the War was made. I started hyperventilating. This was too much to take in, in this amount of time.

IronHide spoke up, sounding concerned. That was odd, he was usually cold and hostile, "Are you okay April?" He asked me softly.

I nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine. You know what? How about we go somewhere else, I'm not in the mood to go to a party." I started turning around and then went down the road the other way.

A little later on, we arrived at this lake. It was surrounded by tree's except for this one area that allowed the orange and pink sky to reflect off the water. I parked the truck and closed my eyes as I leaned back.

"T-this place is nice." Stuttered IronHide. I smirked and my servo-uh hand and slowly ran a finger along the steering wheel. IronHide shivered and my smirk widened.

"So, you have a holoform?" I asked him suddenly.

"How do you know about that?" He asked suspiciously.

"You told me, remember right when I started the drive here?" He didn't seem to beleive me, but said nothing. Instead, in the seat beside me, a shimmering appeared, and a second later IronHide was sitting next to me.

Well dayum..

He was smoking!

He cleared his throat,"So... This is my holoform." I nodded quickly, a blush creeping onto my cheeks slowly.

"Uh-huh," I said stiffly, fearing that my voice was going to crack. To appear less hostile, I continued talking, "This is where I usually go to clear my mind. It calms me down alot." He nodded along with me.

"So how did you know about holoforms? I remember nothing of me telling you about them." He asked me. I smiled and leaned over so that my elbow was resting on the little box-thingie in between the seats. "Can I tell you a secret?" He nodded and his brow furrowed in confusion. "Well... I'm not from this planet."

His eyes widened a little bit, "Elaborate please."

So I did, "Let me tell you a story;

        Once, Optimus Prime had a sparkling femme with TigerRunner, once. Her designation was SoulStar. They loved her so much, and she loved them back even more. She grew up to be a perfect, badass femme, until one day she had to go help her family with the War. So her, TigerRunner and Optimus went into their ship and were about to fly somewhere, when their ship was ambushed. TigerRunner was offlined that day. Then SoulStar was thrown into a pod by Megatron himself. In the pod, he exposed her to a mixture of chemicals, gasses and strangely, an unknown DNA from a creature from a far far away planet. Planet Earth. SoulStar was turned into a creature from that planet and had her memory erased completely. Many vorns later, she crash landed on Earth. A nice family saw her fall, and took her in. They where called the Witwickys. They nursed her back to health and treated her as if she weren't an alien." I took in a deep breath, "They named her April."

IronHide looked at me with eyes the size of saucers, "Y-your kidding right? SoulStar? I-its really you?"

I nodded and removed my goggles, "Hey." I said, barely above a wisper.

He just stared at me for a really long time, but then a wide smile stretched across his beautiful face, "Oh my Primus! SoulStar! It really is you!" He squealed. I chuckled at his childness and nodded. "T-this is amazing! We have to inform BumbleBee straight away! He will be estatic!" I nodded enthusiastically and smiled. I couldn't wait to see my old best-friend.

"When should we surprise him?" I asked IronHide.

"Well, tonight we were planing on contacting Optimus, so I guess you can tag along and we can tell him then." He sugested and I shook my head, a wide smile played across my face. I turned around and looked outside, it was almost time to get home so I started the truck back up. IronHide looked at me confusedly and I pointed at the time, "Mum's gonna flip if I dont get home soon." He nodded and shifted a bit so that he was sitting properly in his seat.

He turned his head and smiled at me playfully, "Well, what are we waiting for?"
