They're what?" Robert Epps nearly shrieked as a groggy William Lennox dropped the latest bombshell on him. "No! No Way! You're telling me the government is letting them do this again? Even after what happened last year?"
"They're giant ass alien robots." Mumbled another NEST operative as he dazedly tried to find patterns in his coffee froth that Bean had poured him, "They can do whatever they want, with or without human permission."
"Am I the only one who remembers last year?" Epps grumbled slouching into his chair, clutching his morning coffee to him with a laser like glare as another soldier tottered into the Rec-Room and tried to swipe it from the table. "Disappearing holoforms… during the rollercoaster rides at Disneyland? Ringing any bells?"
"Painfully yes," Lennox frowned mournfully, "But Oprimus assures me that this year will be different. A new mech called Prowl landed two days ago and managed to sneak into the base. This new mech is apparently the key to law and order in the ranks with an added bonus of keeping Jazz's illegal music downloading in check."
"Thank God." Epps sighed, relaxing fractionally, stifling a chuckle as a nearby NEST operative grumbled about the amount of lawsuits Jazz had picked up over his music downloading spree a few months ago. At last count Jazz had collected one hundred and twenty nine lawsuits for illegal downloading, and the number was apparently growing, judging by the amount of swearing towards the Autobot TIC that Agent Simmons was doing as he examined the mail slots. "But I refuse to be a chaperone this year, or at least, if I have to do it, I'm not taking Bluestreak again. He was a nightmare at Disneyland. He chattered nonstop and would blink out of existence every time something startled him. Space Mountain and various villains from the Disney Parade for example… and don't get me started on Jazz's obsession with the glassblowers' figurines and that giant Minnie Mouse he somehow acquired."
"Sorry Epps." William grinned, brightening as the coffee worked its magic, "It's drawn from the hat and you know it."
"Says you who always gets to partner up with Ironhide." Robert snapped back, taking another gulp of his coffee and waving to Bean for another, the cheerful coffee making transformer scuttling and leaping between tables as he brewed the caffeinated beverage in his detachable stomach pot. "Could be worse though, I seem to recall he spent all day with Optimus and Ratchet on the 'It's a Small World' ride…"
===In the Autobot's Rec-Room===
"I want to go to Disneyland again!" Bluestreak called over the mass of Autobots that were gathered neatly at the various tables, facing a giant screen on the wall to debate where they were going this year for their Vacation.
"No way!" Ratchet snapped from near the front row as they watched their Prime write the suggestion down, while erasing various other suggestions on the giant blackboard like screen on the far wall, "I refuse to go near that 'Small World' ride ever again! I had night viruses for weeks!"
"Very well." Optimus rumbled, sweeping his hand over the Disneyland suggestion, effectively wiping it from the board, earning a groan of disappointment from Bluestreak and Bumblebee, leaving only one suggestion on the board. "So we are all in agreement then? All in favour of Sideswipe's suggestion of a Surfing and Hula Contest in Hawaii say I."
"I." the gathered Autobots chorused as Sideswipe shared a high five with Bluestreak and Sunstreaker.
"I call telling the humans!" Jazz piped up, raising his servo in the air from beside an exasperated looking Prowl who Ironhide was bringing up to date about the previous 'Autobot Vacations', "I can't wait to get an image capture of their faces!"
