Normally, most people find themselves to have pretty average lives, the majority finding this boring. Actually, that could be the truth. Taking risks and having adventures is all about bringing memories, ones that you can carry until the point where you meet death in the eyes. However, there are some, a very rare amount of people, who finds this type of life much because of coincidence, something that will change their futures until the end of time.
Mia was quite the simple girl, spending most of her life to become a famous musician under a well-known Japanese music company. To be honest, she thought that this was her destiny, what she was truly meant to be. Heck, she even met her one true love and remained together ever since, even if they were forced to take time away from each other to pursue their professions but this was a choice that they were glad to make to keep the complex balance between their upside down existence. The female was called in to multiple meetings for the day, getting assigned many opportunities that could take her career to the next level. It was brutal and anyone could agree with so, but it had its moments of happiness and enjoyment whilst doing something that could make anyone's adrenaline soar through the roof.
It was beginning to get late, not only as shown by the setting sun and the amber coloured sky slowly turning to a dark navy blue through a variation of gradients, but from how peaceful the streets were. Usually they were bustling with people coming from all directions during daylight hours. Somehow, the silence was pretty nice and quaint but at the same time, it was nerve racking. This was owed from the fact that the only thing that could be heard is her own breathing and footsteps. However, the tense moment didn't last too long. Her sight was directed towards a golden Lamborghini sitting at the side of the road. For being in Japan, seeing that brand was fairly rare. Mia began to approach the vehicle, looking over the gleaming finish that emphasised that the 'owner' had taken care of it quite well. Perhaps it belonged to one of the producers that arranged the meetings. It seemed that was the only logical explanation to the mystery. With a light breath, she observed the shined paintjob, looking at it thoroughly in fascination and admiration, completely oblivious to the fact that the vehicle moved its' side mirrors to an angle to view the female, as if there was someone inside. But due to the tinted windows, it was difficult to see if there was someone behind the wheel, much to her own surprise there was. It was definite as the owner made his presence to the girl by sounding his car horn which had taken her back from being so close, her own reflection on the windows began to decrease as the windows scrolled down, revealing a black haired tan male with blonde side bangs and chiselled features.
"May I help you?" He asked, raising an eye lid in curiosity.
Mia quickly backed away, frozen in shock as if her entire world had just exploded and came to an end. What made it worse that it was a complete stranger… "I-I…I'm so sorry for snooping around! I-I haven't seen a car like yours around here before…" She quickly replied out in a terrified stutter, her entire form trembling. She didn't have many social skills so keeping calm in such situations proved rather difficult for her. The male simply glanced at her reaction momentarily, frowning in concern in regards to her stutter.
"Whoa, easy there kiddo. There's no need to be scared. I'm sorry; you just seem a little lost. Say, do you need a ride back to your place?" He asked, clearly in some way worried about her safety for some odd reason. I mean, sure there were gangs that travel around at night but it was easy and short enough to travel back to the dormitories by foot. And besides, she had only met this guy. How could she trust him to not take her somewhere else? But even so, his expression seemed rather genuine and trustworthy enough.
Mia was about to speak, ask who exactly he was just to make sure that she was completely safe in his hands, until the sound of multiple engines began to roar in fury from a nearby location. Coming around the corner, it was obvious now that it was a normal vehicle as a glimpse of humans sticking half of their bodies out of the vehicle, armed with weapons like knifes and baseball bats. It was starting…
The girl froze on the spot before going in a defence position, preparing to take on anyone that was bound to take her on for a fight. Even so, the mysterious male wasn't going to take any chances of an innocent young adult getting maimed by a vicious gang. The Lamborghini started its engine, its wheels spun in place before shooting out onto the street and stopping in a jerking motion before proceeding to do donuts on the smooth, dry tarmac, causing a cloud of carbon and dust to cover the area, blinding the hostile beings and causing them to have a coughing fit in struggling to breathe.
The golden vehicle arrived back to Mia before opening the passenger door. "Get in!" He yelled out in a rush, as if the distraction he provided was only going to last for just a few seconds and the girl knew that well. Even though she was prone to fight for her life, she was given the option to save herself from being injured more than she could imagine. She took that option and entered the vehicle that offered to take her to escape from something that was unknown to her.
From the speed that the man was going whilst the distraction was still taking place, they, with ease, managed to lose the group, enabling the rush to decline into a smooth, relaxing pace, the engine hardly making a sound. The female laid back in the seat in silence, taking in all thoughts about what was happening. Perhaps she did choose the correct decision after all. Mia took a moment before exhaling a sigh, speaking quietly to remain the peace but at the same time, making sure that she was audible for the man beside her to hear. "Thank you…"
The man beside gave a softened smile, one that was filled with kindness and trust. If it wasn't for that soft look, it could been mistaken that he could win any fight with the bold muscles inflating his arms. "Don't worry about it, Miss..."
"Mia… My name is Mia…" The man paused for a moment. For someone to give their identity so easily after fright and hesitation seemed rather bizarre but he did assist her in a rescue though, so it was starting to make sense.
"I'm Sunstreaker…" He stated much to Mia's confusion. Sunstreaker? What type of name was that she wondered? Perhaps a nickname is all, she thought to herself, relieving herself of all unwanted curiosity. After all, if she asked further, it may dig herself deeper into more trouble.
"So… What was all that back there? I suppose that's normal around here…" The male said, keeping his eyes on the road as he spoke to the young lady, who he successfully grabbed her attention with his statement. "I'm afraid so…" She said quietly with a sigh, shaking her head in disbelief. "But I am growing into a well-known person soon enough so… maybe after money…" She said in thought to what had previously happened, only to receive a grimace look from Sunstreaker. After all, he despised anyone who would harm others for no reason, even if he was prone to raging on others about one certain thing: his paintjob. But even so, they both decided not to go on with the topic.
After so, the two returned to near absolute silence, all but her giving him directions towards the dormitory building where she and the rest of her friends resided. But soon enough, her curiosity rose once again. A call came along on the com-link within the vehicle, a mechanical like feminine voice rising in an alerted way, as if there was trouble.
"Sunstreaker, I need your assistance. We're under attack and outnumbered!"
The female looked over to Sunstreaker with a surprised look, especially to what he said next. "You'll have to walk the rest of the way… My friends need me…" Mia wasn't at all resolved at what was happening, confusion rising within her thoughts. But with the look that he gave, one that changed so drastically from a fun-loving, kind hearted one, to a more serious, deadly expression. It showed clearly in the eyes. They showed the need to protect the ones he loved, something that she understood. Perhaps a little too much. With a nod, she immediately left the vehicle, feeling the door closing behind her by a faint breeze on her back. As soon as she turned around moments after, he was already gone, no sign or trace that he was even there. Once again, a bizarre feeling…
Back at the base, the battle pursued between two sides of war experienced organisms, two factions known by the names of Autobots and Decepticons. Two sides of Cybertronians fighting out for either peace or destruction. The battle, once again, was ultimately a fierce one but didn't last too long. Most of the Decepticons had seen their demise as soon as Sunstreaker arrived, the few left on the battlefield feeling his gun giving impact to their helms and chassis, turning them to scrap metal. Smoke filled the area as the black and yellow Autobot advanced a taller being, the one responsible for giving the call for help in the first place.
"Optima, I apologise for being late to the party… Just had a minor setback helping out a human…" He explained to the femme leader in the least time consuming way possible, only to receive a forgiving smile from her.
"It is quite alright, Sunstreaker… We have won this battle with minimal damage… However, we fear that Megatron might be planning on setting a full scale war on us… But, about what you were saying about this human, it may be best to bring her to us. If she heard my transmission, we will need to give her answers…" She explained only to receive and grin from Sunstreaker, as if amused to what he was thinking about the plan.
"Unless you plan on adopting her…" He asserted humorously, crossing his arms over his perfect paintjob. The femme giggled in response to his answer.
"Perhaps… But even so, it would allow us to tell her that this is all a secret… To not say anything about what she has seen so far. Hopefully enough, it isn't enough to bring proof of our existence." Sunstreaker listened to the older femme's explanation before nodding silently. He didn't understand her reasoning but she was wise within most bots optics so it may be best to go along with her.
"I'll collect her in the morning…" He said before turning to take a leave back to base along with the rest of the troops. Both Optima and Sunstreaker had the same thoughts. The same thought that this was going to be something big…
