"Missing? what do you mean missing?!" I exclaimed, jumping off my bed. "You want me to spell it? We lost his signal... we can't find him on the radar... no radio contact... he doesn't even respond on our bond..." Sunstreaker said. I paced around, panicking. "We have to find him," I said. "Optimus is on it, Skylar... don't worry, we will find him," he assured me. "How do you know that for sure! What if they will do the same thing to Sideswipe as they did to you? What if humans got him instead of the Decepticons!" I asked, my eyes getting teary.

"Hey... Skylar!" sunstreaker grabbed my arms "The humans that got me are dead... when I escaped I killed them all... " he said. "I promise you... nothing will happen to him, I will find him," he assured me, looking straight in my eyes. Sunstreaker froze as I hugged him, nuzzling in his firm chest. "Please, Sunstreaker... he means a lot to me..." I whispered. He embraced me, making circles over my back. I buried my face in his neck "Don't worry... Sideswipe is tough, he'll be okay," Sunstreaker mumbled.

I pulled back, looking at Sunstreaker. "Come... we need to go to the main hangar, maybe they have some information," he said, gesturing to me to follow him. Sunstreaker grasped my hand, taking me to the main hanger. His holoform disappeared when we walked in, leaving some golden sparkles behind. The yellow Lamborghini transformed into the familiar 80 ft yellow Autobot. He snitched me off the hallway, holding me in his servo.

"Any information?" Sunstreaker asked. "I am trying to find his life signal..." Ratchet replied for Optimus. "We are on it... still no contact over your bond?" Optimus asked. "No... maybe he's unconscious, I feel nothing, not a single response... there's just emptiness," Sunstreaker replied. "I fear we have to wait until Sideswipe contacts us," Optimus said. "Since Skylar was Sideswipe's charge, she's now your responsibility, to protect and keep an eye on her... until we found your brother," Optimus said. Sunstreaker gave a brief nod "We let you know when we have more information," Optimus said.

Sunstreaker turned around "Do you really want to keep an eye on me?" I mocked sadly. "How hard can it be?" Sunstreaker asked mockingly. "You will do whatever I ask you... no matter what it is," he said. I shot him a glare "What makes you think I will do whatever you ask?" I asked. "Because... you know what I am capable of... even if I ask you to prank Optimus you would do it..." he replied.

I huffed "Just put me down... I am already done with you," I grumbled. "have you eaten or not?" he asked. "It sounds like you feel forced to ask me," I said. Sunstreaker rolled his cold and soulless icy blue optics. It still caused me nightmares, the way he can look at me...

I had talked to Jazz a couple of times, he loved music and he's a good company. Even though he's small, he's a good fighter. Jazz told me things about Sunstreaker "Sunstreaker knows to his core of his spark that he is better than any other Autobot, and he makes sure everyone else knows it, too. His sociopathic tendencies, combined with his incredible vanity and arrogance, usually result in tension between himself and the other Autobots. He is generally unwilling to help those who are having trouble and is quite audible when it comes to complaining about the shortcomings of everyone else. Even though he's like that, he's very skilled.

Sunny is a complete egotist, he thinks he is the most beautiful thing on Earth. Loves his sleek styling, contemptuous of other Autobot race cars. He fires laser-guided ground-to-air rockets and high energy electron pulses at 300 bursts/sec. Tough polymer-steel skin resists artillery. Not a team player. Can be baited into dangerous situations, but is a very calm, competent, and ruthless war machine.

A lot of Autobots I spoke with told me talking to Sunstreaker is a creepy experience. Even when he's pretending to be cool, there's something going on in his mind. It feels like he's sizing you, thinking of ten different ways to kill you, but it also makes Sunstreaker one of the best fighters the Autobot has. I am still learning more of him every day, he's very complicated. "weren't you planning to order pizza?" he asked. "I am not hungry anymore," Sunstreaker," I snapped, glaring at him. "Do you really think I am able to eat now Sideswipe is gone?" I grumbled. "You should eat... it will not bring back Sideswipe," he stated.
