A/N This plot bunny has been in my head ever since I watched the first ep of Robots in Disguise 2015, I had to let it run free before it drove me insane
Time
I was always the quiet forgotten one in the family, but with a family my size I suppose being the youngest it came with the territory. Still I don't feel my childhood lacked anything, after all I had the coolest best friend in the world for a while.
He was brave and was awesome at video games, he always knew what to say to cheer me up when I was down and I even helped him through some hard times and in the end my friend became a great hero. But then my friend had to leave, it was time for him to go home. I had never been more sad in my life and I missed him so much.
Life after the Transformers and their war was peaceful for me after they left. I stayed in contact with all my friends I made during that time. Jack went on to collage and Miko went back to Japan eventually. Honestly I don't think Miko could stay after they left and after a while I just stopped hearing from her all together.
I threw myself into my studies by that point, I guess you could say I kept my mind busy so that I wouldn't miss them. All that studying paid off cause now I own and run one of the best tech companies in the world, based right here in Crown City.
Lately however I have read rumours on the web that sound all too familiar. Of giant robots being seen on the outskirts of town. At first I wasn't sure what to believe but now sitting at my desk in front of the computer and what I see on the screen. I look out the window of my office and can see the sun setting, my work day is coming to an end. I can make a quick visit on the way home.
It's a different alt mode that's for sure but it moves and handles just like he did, I make a call to my secretary and tell her I'm leaving early.
I managed to track the car to a scrap yard outside of town and now that I'm standing outside the gate I find myself nervous. If I'm wrong I'm going to look the fool, but if he is here I want to see them.
A shaky hand knocks on the gate.
"We closed an hour ago" came a voice from in, more than likely the owner.
I try to sound as confident as possible. "I'm not here as a customer, I came to see Bumblebee"
I hear a crash from behind the gate as well as hushed voices so I continue. "I'm not from the government and I'm not a Decepticon. I'm an old friend"
"Identify yourself now!" comes a female voice that I instantly recognise as Cybertronian, they always have that small hint of static to their voices.
"My name is Rafael Esquivel, though Bee knows me better as Raf" I reply, half way through the sentence however I hear the gate beginning to open.
