Just a note, I'll be releasing one of these every week/fortnight probably... depends on how busy I am. Also, if any of you guys have a good ship name for these two just let me know in comments...

It had been two years since they left. One of then stayed behind, to look after Earth. Ratchet. But most were back at Cybertron. Including my partner, Arcee. Since the bots left, Raf and I have been friends, but Miko and I kinda drifted apart. She worked her way around social media and made new 'girlfriends'. Once in a while, I'd go back to base and see what's going on there. Sometimes Raf or Miko would be there too.
I guess it's hard to let go. I mean, they were Transforming robots from a different planet who saved our planet, but most people don't even know who they are. Just me, Miko, Raph, Agent Fowler, my mum and that guy we found at that underground metro line.
We've all taken their leaving hard. Especially Miko. Bulkhead was like her best friend. No, Bulkhead was her best friend. This year is Miko's last year in the US. She goes back Tokyo after she graduates, unless there's something or someone who persuades her enough to stay. As for Raph and I, we're taking up Fowler's offer on being agents, like him.
Right now, things are going pretty well for me. I have a future job of being an agent, Sierra is now my girlfriend.. life is good in those areas. But I'll always miss Optimus and Arcee, Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Smokescreen and Wheeljack. Maybe even Ultra Magnus. I think I might be pushing it on that one.
I had just walked into base, when there I spot Miko trying to see if she can speak to Bulkhead.
"Ratchet, can you please see if Bulkhead is available to talk right now?" she pleaded. Ratchet sighed, then tried to get to Bulkhead.
"Sorry Miko, Bulkhead isn't available at the moment," he replied.
"Hey Ratchet. Miko," I greeted them.

For the past two years since the bots left, I've tried my best to avoid Jack. And so far, it's worked.
"Uh, Hey Jack! How ya doin?" I asked nervously. Not that he noticed.
"I'm good," he replies.
I've only been trying to avoid him because if I don't, I might let something slip. I've kinda liked Jack for a while, but I've never told anyone. Hopefully it stays that way.
"Hey Ratchet, any word from Arcee?" Jack asked. Ratchet started to look like he would explode. Or implode.
"Would everybody stop asking me about the Autobots? First Rafael, then Miko, now you? It gets really frustrating, you know. I told you I'd inform you if any of them contacted me," Ratchet barked. "But, there is something I need you guys to do."
While Ratchet started explaining what we had to do, I just stared at Jack, who was concentrating on the instructions from Ratchet.
"Miko? Have you even been listening?" Ratchet questioned.
"Yes Ratchet, I heard what you said. Let's go," I grabbed Jack's hand, and dragged him out of base.
"You have no idea what we're doing, do you," Jack stated. I nodded, and he laughed. "Typical Miko. I'll tell you on the way there. Hop in."
I got into Jack's car, which is way better than mine. But not as great as the living car I used to have. Bulkhead. I miss him so much. We were best friends. I'll never have a friend as great as him. Never.

I had to explain everything to Miko at least three times before she understood what we were supposed to do. Basically, we're supposed to get Ratchet some parts for some machine he's making from the junkyard.
After that was just an awkward silence. We sat there, not talking at all while I drove. It was just too silent. It's weird. Miko is the last person to be quiet.
Finally, we arrived at the junkyard.
"Just grab what we need," I said. We scavenged around for metal scraps, big enough for Ratchet to use, when two cars pulled up at the front of the junkyard. I noticed the Decepticon logo on both of them, and evidently, Miko had too.
"Just keep out of sight. Maybe they won't notice us," I stammered, but it was too late. The Cons had seen us, and headed straight for us. They transformed, and took us in their hands.
"Requesting a ground bridge," one of them said. Ground bridge... that means the Cons still have a base on Earth? That can't be good.
