Need as much help as possible for information on cities, autobots, decepticons, blah, blah... honestly started reading some awesome Transformer fics' and wanted to give it a go. So... Help?
Everything doesn't belong to me- only new character and the OOC of a couple of characters.
Onwards!
"Fuck you! Fuck him, Fuck her! Fuck it, Fuck all of this!"
Chris looked over the wall of her cubical as she watched the young woman scream out profanity in the work space, her cheeks red with lack of oxygen from yelling for a length of five minutes.
"She going at it again?" Tommy whispered from next to her, fiddling his pen between three fingers, he too staring at the ranting girl.
"When is she not?" Chris sighed looking down at her static bound block computer. Frowning she leaned forward and hit it, nodding when it went back to a clear screen.
"You know I hear you!" Talon screamed, throwing down her work folder and scrubbing her face with her dry fingers, "this is bullshit, I'm getting cramps sitting on my ass all day! We should be out there, kicking some crime out of the city!"
"We're the backwater, sweet cheeks" Taylor sighed laying back in his plastic chair, blowing spit balls through a stray straw, sticking them to the ceiling, "we clean up their paperwork they forget to finalize"
"I'll backwater them" Talon seethed pacing the small room her team was placed in, not a very good one with water stains patting the ceiling and cement as a welcoming mat. She hated sitting on the sidelines, to feel useless when she could be out in the warm sunlight gunning down convicts.
"Isn't it time for you to head out, bossman?" Jesse snickered throwing popcorn at her with poor aim; his black hair splattered against his pale forehead, police suit crinkled signaling days of misuse.
"I'll 'bossman' you, prick" Talon mumbled kicking the file under her desk space, puling at her slacks and adjusting the badge on her breast pocket before grabbing her shoulder bag, "hope you fall into a manhole".
"Hasta luego, to you too, Miss marine" Jesse continued as if he didn't hear a word out of her, flicking off Taylor when he threw a paper clip at him, "don't trip on your way out!"
Muttering curses under her breath she stomped out of the busted door, waving idly at the off duty police officers lounging around. Once she was out of the facility she dug out her phone, passing her thumb over the screen warmly, "hope you got a kick out of that, Frenzy"
"Always do, Tal'" the metallic voice of Frenzy stumbled out of the phone's speaker, the screen coming to life, flickering a bit, "you could always let me mess with them a bit, practicality, yes?"
"You're getting worse each day" Talon scowled, hating to see her friend like this, albeit his robotic origins, "are you sure I can't get anything to help?"
"Not anything you could attain" he said in a scratchy voice as she walked through the less crowded part of Carson City, catching her foot on a crack or two on the worn sidewalk. "How are your eyes feeling today, Tal'?"
"Still seeing some things" she replied waving at Larry who ran a small hotdog stand across the street, ignoring the few who glared at her uniform, presumably drug dealers or thieves, "is there anything you can do to help?"
"Not in my line duty" was the small reply, purring a bit when she rubbed her thumb against him soothingly, "Where you headed to?".
"Going to piss of the chief" Talon snickered as she skipped over to the benches to wait for the bus to arrive, "and I'm hoping maybe you'll give me a hand"
"Whatever you need, Bossman" Frenzy replied already tuning into the internet connection, opening various search engines, "What'd'yeah need?"
"An old police car" Talon stated lowly as others started waiting around her, sticking her phone near her ear and used her free hand to occupy her pocket, "one with spunk that will sure put Mister high and Mighty out of his place. What better way to ask for a promotion than to surprise him with my own car?"
Frenzy paused and Talon worried he fell into recharge like he was doing lately, but then there was a buzzing of sound of activity, "Give me a minute, Bossman"

"-Barricade, hey, buddy, wakey wakey! Barricade, still online? Barricade!"
With a charge his systems started rebooting, years of being offline slowing his down his processes, the shrill voice on his radio connection a rude awakening. Headlights flickered on and off before the light blazed with power, revealing a dark hamper with many other vehicles, rusted and abused with dust settle on hoods and flat tires.
"Still alive, partner? Hey, hey, I hear something, you better not be ignoring me! Barricaaaaade!"
Barricade barked a speechless command through the com link, getting his bearing before hastily reinforcing his firewalls, blocking his location from any unwanted visitors, those adding up since he departed from Megatron's unit.
"Barri-"
Barricade sent a shock through the com link, grunting in satisfaction when the link blinked off for a moment before it came back on with blessed silence. It took him a moment to realize he was in his alt form, luckily the energon kept his numerous gears from rusting or locking up.
"…Barricade?"
Shaking the haze from his processers Barricade tuned into the com, recognizing Frenzy's voice, "This better be important, Frenzy, I don't need any autobots or decepticons picking up on my location"
"The girl is in my care" Frenzy answered, surprising Barricade at the low energy he was emitting, last he recognized of the small bot was his energy and snide comments. Shaking out of his stupor he focused on the actual words replayed to him, memories of before he offlined himself flooding him.
Hiding the human sparkling from the decepticons, deleting its existence from databases and creating a new one to keep it safe. It was a hasty decision made only by Frenzy and himself to ensure Megatron didn't receive the information embedded in the sparkling's DNA. Frenzy had appointed himself guardian of the small being while Barricade disappeared, throw the decepticons off track.
The information on the sparkling's biology could destroy their race, it screamed power which was why Megatron wanted it, too blind to realize it spelled death for all of them.
"I already am aware of this" he replied after refreshing himself, revving his engine to warm his interior, "has Megatron located you?"
"They've been getting closer, passed by a couple of times but I was able to block both our codes from their processers" Frenzy answered, his voice changing in octaves, "the signals been blotchy, I won't be able to hold our location for long"
"How is your charge?" he prompted.
"Our charge, partner" Frenzy replied with a bit of static, "and her name's Talon"
Barricade chose to ignore the comment, "Am I to come to you?"
"Hu, lost some of your spunk, Barricade"
"I am tiring of this nonsense" he snapped reversing from his parked postion, scanning for the nearest exit while downloading the shortest route to reach Frenzy's location, "have you kept track of the sparkling's parents?"
"Still in the autobot's care" Frenzy informed, some clicking sounds from his side of the com coming through and Barricade made out a "chill, Bossman" before Frenzy focused in on him once more, "I think it better to come to you"
"I am not sure if the autobot's still occupy Mission City, it would be wiser to come to you" Barricade corrected, coming out of the warehouse he had been housed at, "They will be on both of you the moment you came into range"
"This will be what they expect" Frenzy reasoned, "go to them and that's what they least expect, the autobots might spot us, but they won't know about her, they think she died at the hospital, all they'll see is roaming decepticons, they won't fire if we don't. They are the safer option, on the other hand if you come here Megatron will surely find us and he knows the girl isn't dead and he'll fire at first sight… right?"
Barricade resisted the urge to ram into the vehicle in front of him as he mused over the tiny bot's words, grudgingly finding truth there, "very well, I'll scout the area while you make your way to me"
"Affirmative" Frenzy replied before pausing over the com, "oh, and Barricade?"
"What?" he snapped, speeding past a small car, cutting off a cab driver.
"Please play nice" Frenzy chuckled, "I like her- don't start- she took care of me… please"
"Barricade en route" he muttered, unwilling to openly submit.
"Frenzy out!" he sang, pleased.

"Still alive?" Talon whispered, tapping Frenzy's alt form with her fingernail, starting to worry at his silence, getting weird looks from the old lady next to her on the bus. She would have flicked her off, lady needs to mind her own business, but she was still in her uniform and that would be bad rep for her, "helloooo?"
"I got you a deal" Frenzy pipped up making her jerk a bit, "how does a vacation sound?"
"Uh…" Talon stumbled nervously, thinking it over, "sure, why not? Need to use up those days anyway" fumbling with her badge she continued, "so, where we headed?"
"Mission City"
