Transformer Power
Summary: What if Sam and Mikaela weren't alone on their adventure with the autobots and had another teen with them. One that knows about the Autobots for a while now, Zack Taylor. (black ranger from Power Rangers 2017)
This is a Zack x Mikaela fic. Zack will basically have a power suit like in Power Rangers (with some adjustments), made by an Autobot who is bound to him through a device on his wrist (symbiotic relationship) if I decide to continue the fic for the second movie, he'll gain an upgrade where he can make a zord with his bot.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything from either the Power Rangers or Transformers franchise.
Sam and his friend Miles are driving in Sams new car to a lake where most of their class has gathered for a party.
"Are you sure we're invited to this party?" Miles asks Sam Witwicky.
"Of course, Miles it's a lake. Public property." Sam replies as they pull up to the patch of grass encircling the lake.
"Oh my god dude, Mikaela is here. Just don't do anything weird alright?" Sam says excited seeing the hot Latina from his class he has a crush on a few feet away from them.
The two of them make their way over to their class members, who have mostly gathered around the school's jock and his rather fancy truck.
"Hey bro I see you got a car. So, what are you guys doing here?" He asks trying to scare them away.
"We're here to climb this tree." Sam tells him as Miles is already dangling from a tree, almost losing his flipflops.
"Yeah, I see that, looks fun. Hey, I recognize you, you tried out for the football team last year right?" The jock says.
"Oh no no no, that wasn't like a real tryout, that was research for the book I was writing." Sam replies nervously.
"Oh yeah? What's it about? Sucking at sports?" the jock asks challengingly.
"Oh, no it's about the link between brain damage and football. It's a good book, your friends would love it. It's got mazes in it and little coloring areas, pop up pictures, it's a lot of fun." Sam counters.
"That's funny." The jock says slowly getting closer to Sam to threaten him until Mikaela stops him and they decide to go to another party. "Hey how about you let me drive?" Mikaela asks her boyfriend.
"No, no this is not a toy, these 22s I don't want you … No, why doesn't my little bunny just hop into the backseat?" The jock tells her, pissing her off and she replies, "Oh god just don't know just how much I'm not your little bunny." Walking off.
Sam who went back to his car sees Mikaela walk off by foot and decides to take this chance to get closer to her and throws out Miles, despite his complains.
Sam then rushes after Mikaela in his car, catching up with her and offers he a ride, to which she agrees despite him constantly rambling. The two of them drive for a while until the car has a mind of its own and pulls up to a cliff overlooking the town, looking like a romantic spot. Mikaela tells him to pop the hood and looks over his car, being handy with the mechanics since she had to help her father steal some cars and take them apart.
After not finding anything wrong with the car she decides to walk the rest home, thinking over her current boyfriend situation and how no one thinks she can handle cars.
While she walks back home Sam gets his car to work after 10 minutes, basically throwing a tantrum because it broke down and drives back home.
Meanwhile at the lake a teen of Asian decent arrives with what looks like teched out rollerblades and stops at the grumbling blonde guy walking home by himself.
"Hey man, I'm new in town is this were the kids hang out?" Zack asks.
"Oh, sorry I forgot to introduce myself, Zack Taylor. I used to live 2 towns over." Zack tells him shaking the blonde's hand.
"Miles Lancaster. Nice to meet you." Miles replies.
"So, Zack is there a reason you're walking home by yourself looking all grumbly like that?" Zack asks rolling next to the now walking teen.
"My buddy ditched me to drive after Mikaela Banes, a girl who's way out of his league." Miles tells the new kid.
"Hmm interesting, well I'd offer you a ride, but I've only got these." Zack tells him tapping his rollerblades.
"Yeah, they look wicked though, gotta give you that." Miles tells him impressed by the gear.
"Thanks. Anyways looks like I arrived to late. Well see you around Miles." Zack says waving the teen goodbye and takes off in the other direction, towards where Miles pointed his friend drove off to.
After about 5 minutes of rolling down the street he sees a yellow and black car come towards him with a annoyed looking teen sitting inside, when he suddenly feels the device around his wrist start to vibrate.
"What is it Kitt?" Zack asks the device when suddenly its shape starts to change and a little robot head forms on top of the watch like device.
"That is one of my comrades." An artificial sounding voice says.
"another Autobot are you sure?" Zack inquires.
"positive, it's human companion seems to be unaware of our existence though." the voice says with a blueish light coming from the device, scanning the car and communicating with it.
"What's he doing with the guy then?" Zack questions his friend.
"unknown, but the Autobot requested my assistance and wants us to meet it tonight." The voice replies.
"Alright, been a long time since you last saw another autoboot right?" Zack asks while he's still rolling down the street, faintly able to see a girl walking down the street in the distance.
"Yes, close to 100 years." The voice replies.
"Well I certainly am glad we met and not just because I need you to stay alive." Zack tells him.
"I feel the same partner, might I ask what your interest in the female we are approaching is?" Kitt asks.
"she might be someone I liked many years ago but lost contact with." Zack replies.
"Is she the one you told me about at this what did you call it? Juvie camp?" Kitt questions him.
"Yes it might be her. Now let's speed this up alright?" Zack tells him.
"Roger." Kitt agrees and the wheels on his Rollerblades start to spin at high speed and Zack takes off down the road about as fast as a scooter.
"Alright slow down." Zack says once he's closed in on Mikaela and continues catching up to her with his skates behaving normally.
"Hey, I'm new in town. Know the way to the closest motel?" Zack yells to the girl who turns around to look at him, making Zack stare at her for a second, shocked by her beauty.
"Hey, I'm Zack. Nice to meet you." Zack says rolling to a stop next to her.
"Mikaela." She replies uninterested.
"So, is there a motel somewhere around here?" Zack asks her.
"sure, down the street to your left where those buildings are and then it's the building to your left." Mikaela explains pointing at the group of buildings not too far from them.
"Sweet. Are you headed there too?" Zack asks joyfully.
"Yeah I live near there." Mikaela says not wanting to reveal too much about her to a stranger.
"Cool, want to walk together then?" Zack offers.
"Sure, why not." Mikaela agrees offhandedly, and Zack presses a button on his skates, making them disappear into the boot or at least making it look like that.
"Cool Skates you got." Mikaela says after seeing the function.
"Thanks, I build them together with a buddy of mine." Zack tells her as they start walking down the road.
"So, you're new here, what's brought you to this town?" Mikaela asks.
"Chance?" Zack replies unsure.
"Seriously that's what you're going with?" Mikaela asks.
"Yeah, I mean I wanted to get away from my old town and just went down the road till I found someplace new to stay at." Zack informs her.
"What about your parents? They just went along with that?" Mikaela asks him disbelieve plastered over her face.
"My mom died a while ago and my dad died when I was young, that's the reason I wanted to get out of my old town." Zack tells her saddened.
"I'm sorry." Mikaela says.
"It's alright, anyways is there anything to do around here as a adventurous teenager?" Zack asks her trying to lighten the mood.
"Not at the moment but on the weekend a lot of kids from school meet at the lake up the road or at the cinema." Mikaela informs him.
"Cool, I just drove by the lake seemed peaceful." Zack says looking back where he arrived from.
"Well it won't be when there are 100 kids playing in and around it." Mikaela tells him.
"Guess not." Zack nods as they arrive at the group of buildings.
"I guess that's the motel then?" Zack asks pointing at a broad building to his left.
"Yep. Well enjoy your stay, I'm gonna head home maybe I'll see you around… Mack?" Mikaela says.
"It's Zack and yeah, I'm looking forward to it." He replies waving goodbye as he walks towards the motel.
"Zack huh? I feel like I've heard that name before, hmm doesn't matter." Mikaela wonders to herself before she heads over to her house.
Later that night
Sam awoke to the sound of his car being started and ran downstairs, following the car which was driving away by itself.
Behind some tracks he sees the car disappear until he comes closer to the junk yard, he saw it disappear into.
Once he's at the fence he peers over it, with it being only about as high as his chest and sees a huge robotic figure with his car's colors shine an enormous signal into the night sky.
Being freaked out he records a quick message for the case that he doesn't come out of this alive and then walks onto the junk yard, making the guard dogs chase after him. The dogs break free of the chains and chase him into an abandoned silo. Once there his yellow car tries to get him to follow it but he flees, running right into a police car with two officers who arrest him.
The car disappears quickly, going back to its original spot shining the light into the sky when Zack arrives with his wheels spinning wildly, giving him about the same speed as a car.
"YO." Zack yells up to the robot.
The autoboot looks at him confused until the watch like robot peeks out from under his jacket, forming a small humanoid being on top of his wrist.
"Autobot what are you doing with the human?" the yellow Autobot asks them by using a multitude of radio scenes.
"He and I are bonded. I'm using his energy to survive while he needs my help in containing a genetic illness that would kill him otherwise." Kitt tells him.
"That's new yo, I've signaled the others they should be here in a day. I'm Bee, who are you?" Bee asks.
"Kitt. I was cast off from Cybertron and came upon this planet a hundred years ago. Zack, my human partner found me and with my instructions we were able to build a machine that allowed us to communicate using a voice from a TV show and would sustain us both." Kitt explains.
"So, you're basically a new one. Well I'm sure Optimus will be interested in meeting you human, I've got to go, I need to protect Sam." Bee tells them.
"Wait a second, why do you need to protect the goofy kid?" Zack asks him.
"He holds the key to the all spark." Bee replies and then takes off transforming back into the car they saw yesterday.
"What's an all spark?" Zack asks Kitt.
"The all spark is the origin of life on Cybertron, basically it gave birth to us Autobots. The good and evil ones." Kitt tells him.
"So those stories about Megatron when I was a kid were true?" Zack asks stunned.
"Correct." Kitt replies.
"Well I guess this won't be like a vacation and more like an adventure." Zack says heading back to the motel.
"Affirmative." Kitt agrees.
The next day
After getting arrested and getting into trouble with his parents Sam tries to forget any of it ever happened and continues with the day like any other, that is until his car drives onto his father's lawn by itself and revs its motor.
Freaked out by the car he flees the house on his mother's bike but the car follows him all across town.
Along the way Sam crashes the bike, running into Mikaela who was talking with some friends nearby, but he continues to run away, getting back on the bike and telling her "I'm not OK. I'm getting chased by my car." After she asked if he's alright.
Mikaela looks after him worried since he seemed terrified and takes off, following him on her scooter.
Sam tries to hide under a bridge where many abandoned cars are rotting away when suddenly a police car pulls up. Riding towards he he yells for help but the car doors open once he's next to it and throw him off the bike with a painful grunt.
"Officer listen to me, I've been followed here on my mothers' bike. And my car is right there and has been following me here." Sam tells the officer in the car.
But instead of helping him the car revs its engine, making him fall over and then continues to push him into a corner until a headlight shoots out examining him just before the whole car turns into a humanoid robot like he saw his car do yesterday. Sam takes off running but the robot catches up, slapping him into a car windshield.
"Are you username Ladiesman217?" The robot asks threatening to squash Sam.
"Yeah." Sam answers scared.
"Where is the ebay item 21153? Where are the glasses?" The robot yells demanding to know.
"Sam then runs over the roof of the car he's lying on and runs out form under the bridge, seeing Mikaela approach him on her scooter he frantically yells "Get back! Go!" and tackles her off her scooter.
"What is your problem Sam?" Mikaela asks pissed off, hurt by the fall.
"There is a monster right there that just attacked me." Sam tells her pointing at the approaching robot.
His yellow and black car then speeds towards them, does a donut throwing the other robot off its feet and opens the door for them to get into the car, stopping at their feet.
"OK, you have to get in the car. Get in!" Sam yells and throws her into the car, jumping in behind her.
Bee then flees from the enemy robot which turned back into a police car and the two of them have a car chase until Bee hides at a power station, racing past the enemy and throwing out Sam and Mikaela before he transforms himself into his humanoid form and starts to fight with the Decepticon, who releases a smaller bot which is going after Sam and Mikaela.
While Bee and the Decepticon fight Sam and Mikaela run away from the smaller bot, only for it to grab Mikaela's pants leg and start to pull her in only for her jeans to come off because her belt buckle broke during the fall.
Mikaela tries to crawl away while Sam continues running, looking for something to get help or attack the bot with.
Suddenly Mikaela hears a loud yell coming from the bot attacking her and feels it letting go of her pants. She quickly turns around and pulls up her pants, crawling away from the now squirming bot held down by the new human looking black robot.
"Woah, close one." She hears the black one say, sounding oddly human as he removes his foot from the smaller bot still trying to attack her before he smashes it back down with four saws having appeared at the bottom of his foot which start cutting at the trashing robot. Once he dismembered the robot and beheaded him only the head continues crawling to her and the black bot says "determined one aren't we?" sarcastically before Sam rushes at it and kicks its head a few feet back. The head lands unknown to them near Mikaela's bag which she dropped during their run and it takes on the form of her mobile phone, throwing the real one in high grass nearby.
"What are you?" Mikaela asks the black bot as Sam stands beside her, tugging at her hand to lead them further away but Mikaela sits still, feeling something familiar about the black bot before them.
"Uhh that'd take a while to explain, it's easier I showed you who I am." The bot says as its helmet disappears, and she sees Zack smirking at her.
"Zack?" Mikaela asks stunned.
"The one and only." He replies cockily as he extends his hand to pull her up, which she gladly accepts.
"How is this? What is going on here?" She yells confused while Sam asks, "You know this guy?"
"Yeah we met yesterday." Mikaela replies.
"I think we should talk about this once we're at a safe distance from the ones trying to kill us." Zack advises as behind him bee walks over to them and tells them that he's an alien over the radio with the phrase "came raining down like visitors from heaven." After Sam asks what he wants.
He then turns back into his car form and opens the passenger side door for them.
"He wants us to get in." Sam whispers to himself while Mikaela picks up her bag.
"And go where?" Mikaela asks worriedly as Sam climbs into the car getting in the driver seat.
"No clue but trust me alright?" Zack asks her offering her his hand, having lost his armor.
"After a brief moment of hesitation, she takes his hand and lets him lead her to the car.
"Are you sure we're allowed to sit in it? I mean it is driving by itself." Mikaela asks Sam peering into the car.
"Come on, if you're scared of sitting in the seat just say so." Zack tells her, sitting down in the seat and pulling her onto his lap, clasping the seatbelt around them.
"Go Bee." Zack tells the car, making it rev its motor once before speeding off with the three teens inside.
"So, who exactly are you and why is Mikaela in your lap?" Sam asks Zack obviously more annoyed about the latter.
"I'm Zack. I moved here yesterday and she's sitting in my lap because she's scared by your car Bee." Zack replies.
"He really is no danger to you." Zack tells Mikaela soothingly, feeling her shake in fear as Bee is driving them away now going through a tunnel.
"I hope so, but what I really don't get is why is he turning back into this piece of crap cameo when he really is this amazing robot?" She asks, causing Bee to stop and open its doors, signaling them to get out.
"Fantastic now you've pissed him off. That car is sensitive. 4000 dollars just drove of" Sam says annoyed as they get out.
Bee turns around and scans an incoming sports car before transforming into it, still having his signature yellow and black stripes.
"What?" Sam asks stunned as Bee stops next to them and opens his doors.
Sam hops in and Zack sees that it only has two seats, so he gets in as well, pulling Mikaela into his lap, telling her "Trust me. No one will hurt you." Making her relax a bit.
Bee then continues to take them all over town, stopping at city hall. Bee lets them out and once they're out they look up into the night sky, seeing 4 fire balls heading for them. Mikaela instinct tells her to run away but Zack takes her hand, intertwining their fingers telling her "It's alright. You're safe here."
Mikaela seems to think about it for a second before she moves to stand next to him, hiding behind his shoulder once the fireballs are heading over them.
After the fireballs have passed Bee honks once and Zack tells both Mikaela and Sam "He wants us to get in again."
"How do you know?" Sam asks annoyed at him for stealing his thunder in front of Mikaela.
"I have one too, mine's just different." Sam replies outstretching his free arm and Kitt pops up in his humanoid form saying "Nice to meet you."
"It's alright he's my friend." Zack tells them feeling Mikaela pull hand from his grasp and seeing Sam jump back surprised.
"Woah." Sam says and gets back in the driver seat.
"You can trust me. I will never hurt you." Zack tells Mikaela firmly, looking into her eyes unwavering.
She looks at him and believes that he's telling the truth, so they get in Bee again, who takes them to a deserted Alley, where they see a truck pull up in front of them and 3 other vehicles behind them as they get out of Bee.
The truck transforms into a blue and red robot easily towering over Bee.
The other vehicles follow his lead, and everyone transforms into humanoid looking robots.
"Are you Sam Witwicky? Descendant of cpt. Archibald Witwicky?" Optimus Prime, the red and blue colored one asks him.
"Yeah." Sam says staring at him not believing what he's seeing.
"My name is Optimus Prime. We are Autonomous Robotic Organisms form the planet Cybertron but you can call us Autobots." He introduces himself.
He then continues to introduce his second in command Jazz, who is a silver bot of smaller size, doing a backflip before he lands on a abandoned car.
"Wait then how do you know our language?" Sam asks.
"We've learned Earth languages through the world wide web." Optimus explains.
"This is my weapons specialist Iron Hide." Optimus tells them motioning over to a black bot, showing off his cannons.
"Our medical officer Ratchet." Optimus continues and the yellow one sniffs the air saying, "the boys' pheromone levels signal that they both want to mate with the female."
Sam grimaces and Mikaela takes her hand back from Zack who shrugs apologetically.
"You already know your guardian Bumble Bee." Optimus says and Bee plays a song doing some shadow boxing.
"His vocal processors were damaged in battle, I'm still working on it." Ratchet says shooting a laser at Bee's throat.
"And what about him, who is he?" Sam asks pointing at Zacks wrist.
"I am Kitt." The bot says transforming to stand on Zacks wrist.
"I've never heard of you." Optimus says looking at the tiny Robot.
"I was damaged at birth and discarded. I landed on this planet and befriended Zack, who is now my partner." Kitt replies informing the Autobot leader.
"I see." Optimus says nodding his head while Ratchet looks at the wristband connecting the two interested.
"What is this device?" Ratchet asks.
"We build it together, it allows me to live off his energy and me to help him in battle and stop his disease from spreading." Kitt explains making Rachet hum thoughtfully while Mikaela looks at Zack and Kitt, hearing about his disease for the first time.
"What are you doing here?" Sam asks Optimus, getting back on topic.
"We are here looking for the all spark. And we must find it before Megatron." Optimus tells them, starting a 3D illusion, explaining them the situation, which is that if Megatron gets the all spark instead of them it will mean the end of the world as they know it and how the glasses of Sam's great great grandfather are connected to this.
"Sam Witwicky you hold the key to earth's survival." Optimus says making Mikaela look over to the boy saying, "please tell me you still have those glasses."
