This is my first Transformers fic so I'm sorry if any one is OOC.
To be like them
Chapter one
Waking up back on Earth was a shock to Starscream's processors. The last thing he remembered was leaving the planet. He got up off the cold ground and studied his surroundings. He was standing in the middle of a grassy field; a few trees dotted the area around him. The very first thing he noticed that the pine trees around him were bigger than he was. This of course struck him as well odd.
He staggered a few feet forward legs feeling like jell-o. He walked over to a small pond and stopped. He looked down at it and reflecting back at him was not himself but the face of a human.
He back away screaming as if the pond had some how changed him. After he calmed down a little he looked down at his hands which were indeed those of a human. He took a few deep breaths and walked back to the pond and studied his new self.
His knew body was fair skinned, he had short light blond hair, and his eyes were a vibrant shade of blue. He appeared to be a human in his mid twenties to early thirties. He also quickly noticed that he wasn't a very big human by any sorts, and that he was wearing clothes. How he got clothes perplexed him as much as being human.
He heard what sounded like engines of vehicles off in the distance. At first he worried it was an Autobot attack but soon figured it was just a nearby highway as humans called it.
Since he truly didn't know where to go or even where he was for that matter he decided to follow the sounds to the highway.
The walk to the highway felt like it took eons given the fact he was used to flying everywhere. Finally he made it to the road.
He looked around and weighed the possible options he had at hand. He could commandeer a human vehicle but he wasn't exactly sure that he knew neither how to drive nor how he would get rid of the human occupants. He could walk to a nearby town but there was no roads signs to aide him. He decided that walking some where or any where was better than standing there feeling lost.
He decided to cross the road because there was more room to walk on the other side. As he began to cross he saw a car coming, he didn't think anything over it till he realized. Organic body plus car equaled death. And a painful one at that. "Slag!" he screamed as dove out of the way of the car. Thankfully the driver had slowed down some and missed him.
He rolled over off the road and onto the ground. He mumbled a few choice curses as he stood up dusting himself off.
The car had come to a stop and pulled off to the side. Driver side door opened and a brown haired teenage boy steeped out of the car.
"Sir are you all right?" asked the boy
He felt like he had seen the kid some where before. He shielded his eyes from the car's headlights which appeared to have gotten brighter. "Yes." He answered as he unshielded his eyes as the car's lights dimmed as strangely as they had light up.
"A-are you sure?" the kid asked walking closer voice trembling a bit. "You don't sound well are… you drunk sir?"
Offended a bit by the remark about his voice he glared at the kid without thinking. "I am not drunk." He said making sure the stupid human heard each little word.
"S-sorry." He stammered. "So… do you like need help?"
"Yes I'm lost." He admitted though he truly didn't want to.
"Oh umm… how about I give you a lift to the police station? It's a long walk back to Tranquility from here." He said pointing at the car behind him.
"All right." He said coldly as he walked closer to the car.
Before he got to close the boy turned to him hand extended in a human greeting and said. "I'm Sam Witwicky."
"I'm…" he paused as he tired to think of a human name. "Steven Star." He said trying to cover the hesitance in his voice as he shook his hand remembering some of the things that he had learned about humans over time such as greetings.
"Cool." He said nodding as he opened the driver side door.
He heard the sound of the doors unlocking as Sam nodded to the other door.
"Get in."
He walked over to it but when he tried to open the door it suddenly locked on him.
"Sorry." Said Sam hitting the door lock button again though the same thing happened.
Suddenly the door flung open sending Starscream back onto the dirt with a loud thud.
"Bumblebee!" yelled Sam as he got out of the car to check on the fallen man.
Starscream slowly stood back up. He glared at the car. "That was very rude for an Autobot."
Before Sam could question what was going on Bumblebee transformed into his robot form.
"Bee no! Some one will see you!" yelled Sam in protest as he jumped around the car waving his arms as if the mech didn't see him.
"Starscream." Said Bumblebee glaring at the 'human'
"Who?" asked Sam who had stopped his 'listen to me' dance and looked up at him.
Starscream crossed his arms across his chest and stood there smiling smugly.
"He's a Decepticon." Bumblebee said answering Sam's question.
Sam looked at the blond human than back to the car turned robot. "He doesn't look like a Decepticon."
"Looks can be deceiving." Starscream said pointing to Bumblebee. "After all your car doesn't look like an Autobot all the time does he?"
Sam glared at him, he hadn't known Starscream long and he already didn't like him. "This guys a real asshole."
"Mind your language Sam." Said Bumblebee before he focused his attention on Starscream. "Why are you back on Earth? And why are you human?"
"Why would I tell you?" he asked smugly
Bumblebee drew out his arm cannon and pointed it at him.
"I thought you Autobots had a 'don't kill humans' policy."
He paused and with drew his weapon. "I ask you again. Why are you back on Earth and why are you human?"
"And I ask you again why would I tell you?"
Bumblebee decided that there was no reasoning with him. "Sam."
"Yeah?" asked the teenager who felt like he had remained silent for far too long. "Call Optimus and tell him we're returning to base, with a Decepticon prisoner."
"Right." He said nodding as he pulled out his cell phone and pressed a few buttons.
Starscream figured that the Autobots must have created a way to communicate with the teenager via his cellar phone.
Sam walked away from the two while talking. He soon walked back all Starscream heard was him saying. "Yeah I understand I'll tell him. See ya in a few bye." He closed the phone then looked back at Bumblebee. "Optimus says to bring him in."
Bumblebee changed back into his car form as Sam said to Starscream.
"Get in the car."
"Do not order me human." He snapped glaring at him.
"And you are?" he asked a bit too sarcastic for Starscream's liking.
Realizing as long as the Autobot was there that he was way out matched for now, he got into the car.
As the Camero pulled back onto the highway going back the way it came Starscream dreaded what awaited him once he got to the Autobot base.
Next chapter coming soon, hopefully.
