"Took one hell of a hit you know." Cade said looking at Father "The missile just missed your power source."

"We call it a Spark" Father corrected "It contains our life force and our memories."

"We call it a soul" Cade informed Father

"Cade, why are you willing to help me?" Father asked

"I guess maybe because you trust me to..." Cade said before lighting the torch

We hear Tessa shout and run outside to see black cars driving towards us and fast.

"Shit" I mumble running back inside and telling Optimus to hide under the floor because running back out

"Mr. Yeager, my name's James Savoy. I'm a federal agent." A man said sternly "My men and I are trying to track down an abandoned truck."

"All this for a truck?" I ask crossing my arms over my chest

"It's a nice spread you got here. Too bad she's for sale." the man said

"Well, thanks. She's not." Cade countered

"That the truck you mean?" Cade asked pointing towards his old ford sarcastically

"Afraid not," the man said not even looking at the truck "you know Mr. Yeager, we received a call from someone concerned about the truck. That wasn't you?"

"The only thing I'm concerned about is you being on my property without permission. You know, we got a rule about people messing with people from Texas." Cade said and I couldn't fight the smirk "And I don't know what truck you're talking about."

"The kind that cost American lives." Savoy said getting close to Cade "Search the property!"

"What do you mean, 'Search the property'?" Cade questioned "You don't have a warrant"

"My face is my warrant," Savoy said pointing to his face

'Sounds similar to Seymour's 'Get to do whatever I want' badge thing'

"It's not a very pretty one, I'll tell ya that much," I say calmly having been in many situations like this before and knowing what to do... We'll, what I'm going to do at least

"Wait, but if you guys do find a truck, we get a reward, right?" Lucas asked

I glare at Lucas murderously knowing he called them.

"There are no signs. We got nothing." A man said walking out of the barn and Cade glanced at me and I gave him a look showing that I hid Optimus

"Sir, we have a live armed missile in the trash." a soldier said

"Live? I carried that to the trash! You told me that was a dud, dude." Lucas shouted not helping our case "I could be dead. Right?"

'No, but you will be when I get my hands on you' I think glaring at Lucas

"Look, yes, I found a truck, all right. I towed it back for the parts. I left it here last night. This morning, it's gone. When? Where? I don't know. I swear to God that's as much as I know about him." Cade rushed out

"What he's trying to say is that we found a truck but during the night it must've been towed or stolen because it wasn't here this morning." I add hoping to distract them from Cade saying 'him' but it didn't work

"Mr. Yeager. Excuse me. You just said him" Savoy said taking off his sunglasses to stare Cade in the eyes "Take them down"

Men quickly advanced on me but I was quicker knocking each one out one by one until they ganged up on me and shoved me to the ground.
