"You did what?" Ironhide asked before laughing sarcastically.
"How stupid can humans be?" Wolfie stated as she prowled around me, in wolf form. "Can you not see you've made this more complicated than it has to be? You're foolish actions ha-" 
"That's enough, Wolfie." Prime told her, a roar of a muscle car speeding ran through and I knew I was in trouble. Sirens rang out and I watched as Ratchet attempted to keep up. Bee transformed and stood over me.
"ARE YOU... crazy?" He asked, hands either sides of his head. 
"A little, I blame you." I muttered making him shake his head.
"We'll figure it out, we have just under 24 hours." Prime told us all. 
"Optimus, without sounding disrespectful, but you  can't really do a lot now. The humans know she's somewhere in this area, and they're going to be in their numbers. The best thing we can do is lower their numbers, get Martin and then get out of here." Wolfie told him in a slight snarl before standing on two feet.
"We can't do that." I told her. "I'll be wanted fr the kidnapping of an agent, we need to phone someone... Will! Where's Will?" I jumped up, Prime frowning. 
"I haven't seen him since.. The hycher." 
"We need him, he'll know how to sort it." I told them all, I turned to face Ratchet. "Ratchet, they won't be looking for an ambulance, and if they are, they have no way of telling if it's certainly you. Do you remember roughly around where he lived? I know you dropped him off one time." Ratchet looked from Prime to me before nodding.
"I do somewhat remember, would you like me to pick the man up?"
"And bring him here." I added before taking control of the autobots. "Wolfie, scan the area, you're the most quiet around here. Ironhide, stay behind her but out of sight, if she needs backup provide her with it and help. Prime think of something that we can do with the hycher, I know you still have it. And Bee," I told him making him look down to me "stay here, I may need protecting after telling Elle."
"Am I expected to take orders from a girl who just handed herself over?" Wolfie complained. I groaned loudly before spinning to face her, a furious wave coming over me.
"Do you want to help or do you want to just be a pain in the ass and complain? Because we need to know if you're with or against us!" I snapped before covering my mouth. Wolfie went to all fours, a growl escaping her mouth  as she lowered herself just inches from my face. I stared into her eyes wondering if she was bipolar before taking a step back, Bee running in front of me and pushing her away. 
"Leave her alone!" He shouted. 
"Hey wait, Bee has no one still fixed your voice box?" I asked looking at him before realising, not the time.
"Move from my path, scout. Standing against me is not wise." She growled at Bee.
"Hey! He's just defending me, you turned on me!" 
"I... did, didn't I?" Wolfie rose her head realising she'd turned before turning to face Ironhide. "Come on." She spoke in something barely a whisper before making a run in the woods, Ironhide transforming and following her. 
"What's her problem?" I asked turning to look up at Prime.
"It's in her nature to stand up to anyone to challenges her." 
"But I wasn't challenging her, she nearly bit Bee's head off!"
"Bumblebee stood up to her to defend you, in her eyes that was disrespectful. Back on Cybertron anyone who stood up to an ancient wolf would be either slaughtered there and then or left to their own devices."
"So what if she went to kill Bee there and then?" I asked tilting my head. 
"Then we'd have to stop it."
"But you said-"
"We're not on Cybertron anymore." Prime interrupted me. "Our home is here, where we have to protect one another." 
"Well I'm going inside, protect me from Elle when I come out. She's most likely going to kill me." I muttered walking into the cabin. "Elle!" I shouted to her. She walked in from the kitchen, a cloth in her hands as she wiped them dry. "I've got something to tell you." The moment I said this, Elle threw the towel over her shoulder and put her hands on her hips.
"Speak." She said in a serious tone.
"Well I sort of spoke to Martin..." 

2 hours later, and the bickering between stopped. At last
"You're still a dick." Elle muttered as she picked up the glass she had threw at me in temper, clearly a best friend. She smirked to me and threw the pieces in the bin. 
"Well you assaulted me so-"
"Who assaulted you?" A mans voice spoke making both me and Elle jump and turn to see Will standing in the doorway. A slight squeal escaped my lips and I ran to him, hearing Elle muffled something sarcastic and scoffed as I wrapped my arms around his muscular and toned figure. His arms wrapping around my waist and picking me up slightly. "Good to see you too." He chuckled as he put me down again.
"Where have you been?" I demanded pushing him backwards. He yelled before landing on the floor, at his feet a black bag. I frowned at it. "Staying for a bit are we?" I laughed.
"Just a bit. I had planned on staying until this all blew over, you seem to get yourself in a bit of a mess when you don't do anything."
"She just breaths and the army are after her for blowing up the pentagon." I sent Elle a dirty look for the unwanted comment before turning to look at her. "Sorry." She grumbled, pushing past me and pushing me to fall on top of Will. "Love birds." She grumbled, however me and Will stared at each other. I felt my cheeks burn a crimson red before pushing myself off and then we laughed.
"She's an ass."
"She's a friend." He corrected standing up and offering me his hand, I took it and he pulled me up to his level, well close enough, with one swift move. "So, where am I sleeping?"
"Guest bed room." I nodded with a smile and pointed to the stairs. "I'll come up and show you." He nodded and picked up his bag as we made our way to the bedroom. We walked in. It was a silver, black and red colored room. The bed was a black frame with red bedding, silver curtains with two black bed side tables with silver lamps, one chest of draws also black and a silver mirror and a black outlined wardrobe with red doors and silver handles matching the chest of draws. I liked this room, it smelt like vanilla for some reason. Oh that would be the plug in air freshener at the corner of the room. "Just make yourself at home, you thirsty?" I asked with a tilt on my head. He nodded and I smiled to him, patting his shoulder as I exited the room. "Unpack and I'll have a coffee waiting for you." I smiled jogging down the stairs. 
"I'll have a coffee waiting for you." Elle mimicked with a grin. "You so like him!"
"Do not!"
"Do to!"
"I do not!"
"Oh admit it, he's gorgeous dude!" Elle grinned as she flipped the coffee machine on. "If he wasn't into you, I'd go for him myself."
"Oh get over yourself, he'd never go for someone who has as big of a head as yours." I smirked nudging her out the way with my hip and grabbing three black mugs, however one said 'SS' in silver and the other said 'ET' in red, which made my chuckle. This is what I loved, this is what felt like home. But I found myself questioning everything. And there was one question that rang out most.
