Sidestreaker

Chapter 7-More robots and robotic history

RJ's POV After what seemed like an eternity of for waiting Sam, Mikaela, and the Camaro to pulled into the wide ally where the two lambos and I were. I walked over to Sam and Mikaela knowing there will be something unexpected coming. My grip tightened on my katana as I saw a handful of cars driving in the ally where we were. I wasn't sure if they were with the police car or the Camaro, even though it seemed most likely that they were with the Camaro because the Camaro hadn't attacked. My eyes were instantly drawn to the Peterbilt 379 semi that had a red and blue flame design. Then, the semi moved forward and transformed into a robot that was even bigger than the Camaro. I kept my calm, though, and my eyes met the blue ones of the truck with familiarness. "Are you Samuel James Witwicky and RJ Witwicky, descendants of Archibald Witwicky?" the truck asked Sam in a deep voice, finally breaking eye contact with I, who had refused to stand down. The other cars plus the lambos transformed into their robot forms. I observed them and saw that none of them were quite as tall as the truck, who was obviously the leader. "They know your names." Mikaela whispered to Sam as I frowned up at the truck. "So what of he is?" I demanded, not trusting the robots... yet, even if it seemed that they were on the lambos' and Camaro's side. Now that I thought about it, I wasn't even sure that the Camaro was good. All I knew was that it had saved them from the police car that was trying to kill Sam for unknown reasons. "My name is Optimus Prime," the semi told them, casting a long glance at the three humans. "We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron." The robot that used to be a H2 Hummer spoke up. "But you can call us Autobots for short." hummer said about the Autobots. "Autobots," Sam repeated faintly, looking a bit pale. "What's crackin', little bitches?" A fancy Pontiac Solstice said before Optimus spoke again. "My first lieutenant, Designation: Jazz." he said as Jazz preformed a flip and landed on a junked car in a thinking pose. "This looks like a cool place to kick it," he commented. I ignored Jazz, who Sam noticed looked like he had been showing off for RJ. Sam instantly felt bad for the bot. "Where did you guys learn how to talk like that?" Sam asked as Optimus turned to Sam, who gulped. "We learned Earth's languages through the World Wide Web," he answered as Sam gave him a blank look. "The Internet," I sarcastically said when Sam's mouth formed a perfect 'o' as he nodded, causing me to roll my eyes. Noises came from a black Autobot that turned into a GMC Topkick and Prime turned around. "My weapons specialist, Ironhide," he told them. Ironhide drew his cannons and aimed at the humans. "Feeling lucky, punk?" he asked as I stepped in front of Ironhide generated a copied cannon in my hand. "Whoa, back off, trigger happy," I said causing the other Autobots shared a look, wondering at the courage of the human. I was armed with nothing but a generated cannon, yet I had jumped in front of my friends to protect them from getting shot. "Easy, Ironhide," Prime finally said to Ironhide who backed up and transformed his cannons back into his hands. "Just kidding, I just wanted to show them my cannons." he told Prime. "Our medical officer, Ratchet," Prime informed them, gesturing to the Hummer. "The boy's pheromone level suggests he wants to mate with the female," Ratchet said, pointing to Mikaela. Both blushed, as I started cracking up as a giant grin was stretched across my face. "I'm never going to let you forget that, guys," I said, my grin growing wider when they groaned. "Hey, Jazz!" I called to the first lieutenant almost fell off the car as I addressed him. He looked at me for my responce. "Fifty American bucks that they'll get together in a week." I said about Samand Mikaela hooking up. "Deal! Fifty bucks for me, coming right up." Jazz said as I laughed. "Ha! You wish!" I exclaimed, rolling my eyes as I flipped my hair behind my back. Jazz rolled his eyes back at me, but I couldn't help but notice how his head turned so that I was always in his vision. I frowned at the obvious affection that the Autobot had for me already. "You already know your guardians, Bumblebee for Sam, Sideswipe and Sunstreaker, our twin front liners, for RJ." Prime said unemotionally. Sam turned to Bumblebee as he punched the air like a boxer. "Bumblebee, right?" he asked confused about a guardian. "No, Sam, we totally weren't just told that," I said sarcastically, giving the other Autobots a look clearly saying, 'Can you believe this guy?' That got laughs out of everybody besides Prime. Bumblebee started playing a song. 'Check on the rep, yep, second to none...' "So, you're my guardian?" Sam continued as I again rolled my eyes. "Like I said before, Sam, we totally weren't just told that, but I got the two cool guardians." I said, causing the Autobots to chuckle. I looked to Ratchet about Bee. "His vocal processors are damaged, right?" I asked Ratchet. "They got damaged in battle. I'm still working on them," Ratchet answered, shooting a laser from his hand at Bumblebee, which caused him to cough. Sam's wide eyes went from Bumblebee to Ratchet. "Why are you here?" Mikaela asked, looking at the giant Prime. Prime replied, "We are here looking for the AllSpark, and we must find it before Megatron." He looked grave as he said this. "Mega-what?" Mikaela, Sam, and I asked confused. The Autobot leader pressed a button on his ear, and his eye projected a beam of light that grew into 3D shapes that moved. I felt like I was watching an extremely 3D movie. The floor in the hologram cracked, showing them what I assumed to be Cybertron, what I assumed to be the home world of the Autobots. Giant columns made of what looked like steel (or, at least, some type of metal) rose several stories above the surface, and there were many layers made from the same material stacked on top of each other. I assumed that it was built like that for the same reason humans-built apartment buildings- to make more space while using the same amount of space. The thing that ruined the mechanical beauty of it was the dead Autobots on the ground. "Our planet was once a powerful empire, peaceful and just. Until we were destroyed by Megatron, the leader of the Decepticons. All who defied them were destroyed." Prime said about Cybertron. "Well, clearly you defied them, but you don't look destroyed to me," I said about being destroyed. When everybody looked at me with confusion. "What?" I asked as Prime ignored me. "Our war finally consumed the planet and the AllSpark was lost to the stars." The hologram of Cybertron turned into one of Megatron fighting off dozens of Autobots at a time with just a spear and I rolled my eyes. "That's nothing, I could do that with plastic, like, ten times better than him. If he shifted his right hand closer to the edge by about an inch..." I muttered not-so-quietly. I was sent a glare from the Prime that told me that my critiques weren't helpful at the current moment. "Megatron followed the AllSpark to Earth, where Captain Witwicky found him." Prime said to us. "Our great- grandfather," Sam said about his little project. "You mean yours. Remember, Sammy, I'm adopted." I said when I found out I was adopted when men from out of state came to talk. The Autobots were shocked to hear this. I was about to point that out when Prime continued, not giving me enough time to speak unless I was going to speak over him. "It was an accident that intertwined our fates. Megatron had crash landed before he could retrieve the Cube. While exploring the Arctic, Archibald Witwicky discovered him buried beneath the ice and accidentally activated his navigation system." Prime said about the artic trip. I watched as an extremely older version of a man who looked a lot like Sam fell through a hole in the ice and slid into a cave-like formation underground. He searched the cave with a lantern and found a frozen metal figure who I assumed to be Megatron. Captain Witwicky played with some gears on the robot's fingers, but hit something that was probably important, as it let out something that knocked the captain unconscious. I saw that his glasses were cracked. "The coordinates to the Cube's location on Earth were imprinted on his glasses." Prime said about the glasses. "How do you know about his glasses?" he asked confuse about the glasses. Prime fixed him with a serious look, causing him to gulp. "eBay," Prime answered. "eBay," Sam repeated faintly as I rolled my eyes. "Told you not to put those things online. You got yourself chased by countless twenty- foot tall robots. And me, too," I teased, trying to get him to feel better. "Talking about the All spark, we must find it before the Decepticons. Or else they will use the AllSpark's power to transform Earth's machines and build a new army. And humanity will be extinguished. Sam Witwicky, you hold the key to Earth's survival." prime said to Sam about him being the one to hold the key to earth's survival as Mikaela turned to Sam. "Please tell me you have those glasses," she asked Sam about the glasses. "You'd better," I agreed in frustration at Sam who nodded. "I have them. They're at the house. We gotta go now." Sam said about the house. I noticed how all the Autobots visibly relaxed when he said that. I realized how important it was to them that their war didn't affect an innocent species and get their planet destroyed like theirs had. I swore to myself to fight with them to protect my planet. They wouldn't be alone. Prime nodded.
