A week later bulkhead and bumblebee returned from getting Raf and Miko. "Where's Arcee and Jack?" Skywalker asked. "Not sure" Miko said. You could tell she was hiding something. When they hear the door open Miko and Raf ran off. Skywalker fallowed. "Not a word, to anyone" Arcee's voice said. "Our little secret" Jack's voice said. Arcee walked away not noticing Skywalker.  "Dude, vroom vroom vroom, and the winner is..." Miko said. "Miko, who told you?" Jack asked. "Are you kidding? It's all over school!" Miko said. "You beat the pants off that bully Vince" Raf said. "So you were racing?" Skywalker said coming from her hiding place. Jack gulped.  "You guys have to keep this on the down low. Especially from Optimus. Please Skywalker?" jack begged. Skywalker sighed. "Just this once. But if I found out you and Arcee raced again or any other bot, I will have to tell Optimus" Skywalker said. Jack nodded.

They went to the rest of the bots. Optimus was on scout. The bots and the kids just relaxed that day. Optimus returned as the kids went home. "hey sweetie, how was the scout?" Skywalker asked. "Fine. I just have a bad feeling." Optimus said. "Me too."

A few days later Arcee came in looking mad. "Everything okay?" Skywalker asked. "Jack agreed to do a secret street race tonight. I told him no." Arcee said. Skywalker went to jack. "Why did you agree to a race?" She asked. Jack looked nervous. "There's a girl at school I was trying to impress. Her name is Sierra." Jack admitted. "What time is the race?" Skywalker asked. "11" Skywalker sighed. "You know you can't. Using a bot is cheating" Skywalker said. Jack nodded. Skywalker left the room for a little bit. "I would help him, but I have too problems, I'm pregnant and I'm not a car, I'm a plane. Wait, my farm, I never sold it. I still have cars there. That's it!" Skywalker was about to go out and tell Jack but he and bumblebee were gone. "Where's Jack and bumblebee?" Skywalker asked. Miko looked nervous. "Miko?" Skywalker said sternly. Arcee came in. "has anyone seen jack?" She asked. Now Miko and Raf looked nervous. "Not since we last saw him" Raf said. Skywalker frowned. "They're racing, Aren't they?" Skywalker asked. "Just this once." Raf said. Skywalker was disappointed.

Bumblebee came on the com link buzzing. "Your being chased by knockout?" Raf asked. "Knockout? That's a Decepticon! Arcee, bulkhead, let's get a move on. Miko, Raf, is Optimus asks, tell him the truth! Let's go!" Skywalker transformed and they went off. They found jack with bumblebee behind him. Everyone transformed into bot mode. "We need to talk jack" Arcee said. "No now Arcee. Knockout took Vince" jack said. "Oh well, tough break for Vince" bulkhead said. "Bulkhead!" Skywalker and Jack said. "What, I heard he's a jerk" bulkhead said. "No argument there but he's also innocent" jack said "What would knockout want with a random human?" Arcee asked. "He probably mistook him as bumblebee's human friend. I'm not even bumblebee's human friend" jack said. "We'll get him back" Skywalker said. Arcee transformed back into her motorcycle mode. "Hop on" she said. The others transformed and fallowed Skywalker. They found where they took him.

They fought another con named breakdown. Skywalker happened to see knockout driving away with Vince still inside. Skywalker and Arcee went after him. Arcee had a hard time keeping up with him. Then Optimus came and ran into knockout. He ripped off one of knockout's car doors. He took out Vince. Knockout transformed. "Do you have any idea how hard that is to replace?" Knockout yelled. The other bots came by. Bumblebee had Jack in him. "Optimus, this is my fault" jack said. "Right now we need to get this boy toy saftey. Explanations can come later. From all of you." He said sternly. Skywalker had a stern look on her face too. "You as well Skywalker" Optimus said. Skywalker was shocked. But didn't argue. Bumblebee and Jack got Vince to his car and went back to base. Optimus finished lettering the other bots. It was Skywalker's turn.

"Sky" he said. Skywalker looked at him. "Why did you hide this?" He asked. Skywalker sighed. "They told me they would only do this once." Skywalker admitted. "And why did you hide it from me the second time?" Optimus asked. Skywalker looked confused. "I told Raf and Miko to tell you as soon as they saw you. I just went to talk to Jack and save the boy." Skywalker said. "Don't lie to me sky!" Optimus said angrily. Skywalker was shocked. She knew it took a lot for him to get angry like this. "Optimus, I'm not lying." Sky said. "Then why did they try hide it?" He asked in an angry tone. "I don't know. Optimus, believe me, I wasn't trying to hide it the second time." Skywalker said. She was on the verge of crying. Optimus saw her energon tears. He calmed down a bit. "I'm sorry. I guess, it's just my protective side. I care about you and our baby. But, maybe we need to rethink for a while." Optimus said. "Optimus, what are you saying?" Skywalker asked. "We should separate. For now anyways. Think about our relationship." Optimus said. "Optimus, no, please. I love you. I'm not lying. Please don't do this." Skywalker said. "I'm sorry sky. I'll have agent Fowler relocate you." Optimus said as he walked away.

"No! Please Optimus! I'm sorry. Please... Please don't do this!" Skywalker cried as she fell to her knees. Optimus turned to her and saw her hurt. He realized then, she couldn't live without him. And he felt the same. He went back to her and knelt down and pulled her into a hug. "I'm sorry. I don't know what got into me. I won't make you leave. I love you Skywalker. I love you and our baby. I'm sorry love" he said with tears. They didn't let go for what seemed like hours. "please, please don't say something like that again" Skywalker begged. "I promise." Optimus said. They then kissed.
