What if the Autobots aren't the only ones with charges? What if the Decepticons have human companions too? Humans who have been working with them long before the introduction of Jack, Miko and Raf.
Jessica, a genius hacker and charge to Soundwave...
"Knockout, you're getting a little too close for comfort. Stop dodging and start attacking, I'll buff any scratches you acquire" She promises.
Knockout subtly side eyes us, before returning to his fight with more force than before, catching the scout momentarily off guard. The fight continues until Megatron lands a critical hit on Optimus' abdomen. The Prime crumbles to one knee, but before Megs can make the final blow, he's tackled by a large green mass. Bulkhead.
"Autobots, retreat!" Optimus orders.
His team regroup to help him, as they make a quick escape through their newly opened groundbridge. Megatron roars in anger, as the Prime once again escapes his demise by the Warlord's servos.

Y/N POV
While Megatron rages about the Autobots escape, Soundwave approaches us and crouches down closer to our level.
"His mood isn't going to lighten anytime soon is it, Sounders?" Jessica asks her silent guardian.
Soundwave replies with a smirking emoji and holds his servo out to us.
"You have a plan to calm him?" She quirks a brow.
He gives her a firm nod and points a slender digit at me. I furrow my eyebrows in confusion.
"What do I have to do with this?" I question.
"Isn't it obvious to you yet? Lord Megatron likes you" Kayla says in a matter of fact tone.
"Not this again" I sigh.
"Can you just entertain the idea, just this once and calm the furious Warlord?" Her tone tells me she's becoming impatient.
"Fine" I grumble.
Soundwave places Jessica on his shoulder while I climb onto his free servo. Kayla follows behind and ends up on Knockout's shoulder soon after. When we're close enough the Megatron, the silent mech places me on a large boulder and retreats to Knockout, Breakdown and Starscream, who are keeping their distance.
"Megatron" I call out, a slight sternness present in my tone of voice.
"What?!" He snarls, whipping around to meet my gaze.
"Calm down"
"You dare order me, femme?!"
I frown.
'Guess we're doing this the hard way then'
"Don't give me that attitude! Stop throwing a tantrum and face the facts! Yes, the Autobots escaped, but not unscathed. You've gravely wounded their leader, he'll be out of commission for some time. Stop lingering on your loses and look at what you've achieved. With their leader confined to a medical berth, the Autobots are weak. Use this time wisely and come up with a new plan, one that could take them out for good" I scold him harshly.
He growls lowly before eventually sighing in defeat. He scoops me up in his large servo and lifts me so I'm level with his faceplate.
"You are right, (Y/N). I apologise, I should not have directed my anger towards you" he says regretfully, gently leaning his forehelm against my own.
"Yeah, you better be sorry" I grin. "It's not everyday I have to point one of my lectures at you of all mechs"
"I never thought I'd be on the receiving end of one of them either" he chuckles genuinely and I smile at the sound.
"Is that a chuckle with no dark intent I hear?" I smirk teasingly.
"Only for you" he sends me his own teasing smile as we gaze into each other's eyes, or optics in his case.
"OW! Kayla, that's my face!" Knockout's exclamation interrupts whatever moment we were having.
We turn to the others to see Kayla trying to contain a squeal, and apparently slapping Knockout in the face is helping her achieve that goal.
"Kayla, just let it out. Not only are you going to hurt yourself, but Knockout too" I sigh exasperatedly.
"OH MY PRIMUS! THAT WAS ADORABLE! TELL ME SOMEONE TOOK A PICTURE!" She literally shrieks.
"Soundwave has an entire video" Jessica smirks.
"Oh Primus, I'm never going to hear the end of this" I groan.
***
The next day, Knockout drops us off at school as usual. As we walk up to the school campus, Kayla can't help but skip with a giddy smile on her face.
"(Y/N)'s in love~ (Y/N)'s in love~ (Y/N)'s in love~" she sings, gaining everyone's attention, even the Autobots and their charges.
"SHUT UP!" I yell.
"You didn't deny it~" she giggles.
"She's right. Does that mean you've finally accepted you're in love?" Jess smirks.
"Wha- No, I-" my words completely fail me.
"Ah-ha! You're speechless because you can't deny it!" Kay grins while pointing an accusatory finger my way.
"Shut up" I blush and walk away from the two.
Their screams pierce through the air like blades.
"Holy cow, it's happening!"
"Oh my God. I can't believe it, somebody pinch me! OW! I didn't mean literally, Kayla!" Jess exclaims.
"Will you two just hurry up! We're going to be late!" I call out, the blush still evident on my face.
They finally continue walking, but their grins never leave their faces. I sigh exasperatedly.
'This is going to be a long day'
