N.O.A.H.

PART 1

The setting sun burned the sky a golden red orange with a tint of pink, the light bathed all of Detroit with its beautiful colors. On a building's rooftop, two dark figures in full body black and silver jumpsuits and masks looked over the city.

"Have you ever seen a more beautiful sunset?" One of them said in awe.

"Focus Number Six Two Nine, we're suppose to be looking for the unit, not to watch the sunset." The other replied harshly.

"Sorry Number Two One Four, I got sidetracked." Number 629 said.

Number 214 smacked his forehead with his hand in disgust.

"God! You're a lousy excuse for a Ninja Drone, you know that?"

"Don't blame me, I have some faults in my programming."

"I don't want to hear about your faults, we're suppose to look for that unit! If Command Drone Seven Three Eight finds us screwing around instead of working, he'll report it to the master and he'll disassemble us!"

"What are you idiots doing?!" Boomed a voice from behind.

The drones turned around and were soon facing a large muscular figure wearing a similar jumpsuit as they were.

"C-Command Drone 738 sir. I-I thought you were on the other side of the city searching for the unit, sir." Number 214 said.

"I was, the search was futile! You two are suppose to be searching this part and I find you two screwing around?! I oughta decapitate you malfunctions right here!"

"It wasn't my fault sir, it was Number 629's! He held up the search watching the sunset!" Number 214 said, pointing at his partner.

"Hey don't pin this on me!" Number 629 replied.

738 pinched the bridge of his nose in complete disgust.

"Ugh…if you want something done right, you'll have to send out your most trusted hounds."

Suddenly a large pack of robot dogs in the form of Rottweilers emerged from behind the Command Drone, the two drones shivered in fear at the sight of the army. The alpha droid's eyes glowed blood red and bared its razor sharp metal teeth dripping with dark oil.

"Yes, yes! No! Headshot, headshot! Get over here so I can kill you! Slaggin' bastard!" Bumblebee shouted out loud.

The yellow bot and Sari were playing 2 player mode on Halo 2, and Bumblebee was getting his butt kicked really hard on his side screen.

"Aw Primus dammit!!!" He shouted as his guy got killed, again.

"Jeez, Bumblebee, this is the twelfth time you got killed, and one second before the next stage. Is there something bothering you?" Sari asked her friend.

"It's nothing, Sari." Bumblebee said, almost emotionless.

"Don't lie to me Bumblebee, you losing 12 times in a row isn't a coincidence. What is it?"

"It's nothing! Shut up, drop it, and just keep playing!" The bot snapped.

The techno-organic teen recoiled a bit at the yellow bot's attitude, Bumblebee never snapped at her, not even once. Suddenly Optimus Prime and the others walked into the room.

"Bumblebee?" The red and blue bot said.

Bumblebee threw his controller on the floor and looked over the head of the couch to face his comrades.

"For Primus sake! What the frag do you want?!" He yelled.

Everyone's optics widened at the little bot's tone, then went back to being serious.

"We need to talk to you about your recent behavior." Optimus said.

"Oh greaaat, Captain Elite Guard dropout and the bring down brigade are going to preach to me about my attitude." Bumblebee said in a rude sarcastic tone.

"See? This is what I'm talking about." Optimus said. "Ever since you found out…the truth, you've been kind of…well…uh"

"Yer attitude is spiraling out of control and you need to be corrected!" Ratchet added.

Sari suddenly realized what all this meant and tried to speak to her friend.

"Is this what's causing your bad moods, Bumblebee? Is it because about"

Bumblebee stood up and walked away, not even letting her finish her question.

"I don't need your pity, I don't need any of your slagging pity!" He said to everyone in the room."Come on little buddy, we're just trying to help." Bulkhead said.

"Hey, I don't need any help from you! You wouldn't understand what I'm feeling right now!" Bumblebee snapped at the big bot.

"I do understand, Bumblebee."

The yellow bot stomped up to Bulkhead and looked up at him with optics that had anger and hurt in them.

"In case your memory core malfunctioned, here's a refresher! I was tricked, I was lied to, I was taken advantage of! And for what?! To prove that I had what it takes to be a hero?! I'm a malfunctioned idiot, and I don't need some wide-loaded, oilholic, van raping, butter servoed walking disaster who can't tell the difference between a closet and a refrigerator to remind me otherwise!"

Everyone was silent with shock as Bulkhead picked up Bumblebee by his head and lifted him to his face.

"What did you say?" Bulkhead snarled.

"You heard me! I called you a wide-loaded, oilholic, van raping, butter servoed walking disaster who can't tell the difference between a closet and a refrigerator!" Bumblebee replied.

"This is going to be a disaster." Prowl mumbled.

"I'll have you know that the whole van incident was an accident!" Bulkhead said to the bot.

"Yeah, while you were drunk on high-grade!" Bumblebee replied.

The green bot scowled and dropped him from the level he was holding him and Bumblebee landed on the concrete floor hard.

"THAT'S IT!!! YOU WANT A FIGHT?!! YOU'VE GOT A FIGHT!!!" He yelled, bringing out his stingers.

"BRING IT ON, AFTPIPE!!!" Bulkhead replied as his hands became wrecking balls.

"Bumblebee, Bulkhead! don't do this!" Optimus said to them.

But the two were already fighting tooth and nail, electrical zappings, destruction, and flying chunks of debris followed in the wake of the brawl. At the point Bumblebee and Bulkhead were to strike each other with ones weapons, the other Autobots stepped in to put a stop to it.

Optimus and Ratchet pinned Bulkhead to the floor while Prowl restrained Bumblebee, Sari ran in between and put out her arms at them.

"Stop it! Stop it both of you!" She yelled.

"You both are acting like a couple of sparklings!" Optimus added.

Bumblebee jerked out of Prowl's grip and stomped towards the door.

"You know what?! Screw all of you! I don't have to put up with this what humans call 'bullshit'! I'm outta here!!!" He screamed at his comrades.

He transformed into his car mode and drove away at lightning speed.

"Bumblebee, get back here now!" Optimus called out.

But Bumblebee didn't listen. The bot leader was about to pursue the youngster, but Ratchet held him back.

"Let em go Prime, he needs to blow off some steam for a while." The medic said.

A female silhouette was running for her life as the Rottweiler Droids closed in fast. She ran into an alleyway and hid behind the corner wall to escape their visuals, but the droids were fixed on her scent and turned into the alleyway. But as they turned the corner, they lost the girl's trail. Ninja Drones 214 and 629 then appeared before the droids.

"Has the target be apprehended?" Number 214 said.

"Target capture failed." One of the droids said in monotone.

"Damn! Keep searching, she couldn't have gotten far." Number 629 said.

The drones and droids then set off to another part of the city to continue the search. On top of the building roof, the female looked out at the figures leaving the scene, she suddenly felt a wave of dizziness overtake her and toppled off the building.

She luckily but painfully landed on a dumpster lid and bounced onto the ground. The girl slowly got to her feet and gripped her left elbow in pain, she then staggered into a twisted alleyway moaning painfully. Meanwhile, Bumblebee was speeding along the street, still angry. No other cars were on the road so he could go as fast as he wanted and not care about getting pulled over.

"They don't give a circuit board's plastic and gunk shoots about my feelings! No bot does!" He yelled to himself.

As he came over a hill, a girl suddenly stepped onto the street right into his headlights.

"HOLY SLAG!!!" Bumblebee screamed in surprise.

He slammed his brakes so hard that he began to skid out of control, and straight for the girl.

"GET THE SLAG OUT OF THE WAY!!!"

But the girl didn't move, she just stood frozen with horror in her eyes. Bumblebee then felt the dreaded th-bump under him and crashed into a building wall. He transformed into robot mode and rushed over to the figure sprawled on her side completely motionless as his anger was replaced with fear.

Bumblebee looked over the girl before him, she looked to be about 17-18 years of age, had long sky blue hair that reached her thighs, was smeared with grime, and was wearing a torn short sleeve gown fashioned from rags and wore no shoes. Bumblebee saw some blood on the pavement and immediately began to freak out.

"Oh frag, oh frag, oh frag! I hit a human! Prime is so going to offline me if he finds out! Oh man, what've I done?!"

Bumblebee suddenly felt some relief wash over him as he heard the girl moan softly.

"Oh thank Primus, she's not dead, there's still some hope." He thought.

He gently slid his hands under the girl and picked her up, and nearly dropped her when he got a better look at her whole figure. What Bumblebee saw was the girl's left elbow was torn up and revealing crackling circuitry covered in blood, her right knee was also torn and revealing crackling circuitry.

The yellow mech was in such deep shock that his systems literally froze, everything around him seemed to stop as his optics lay fixed on the girl, unable to move, unable to speak. Bumblebee's systems started working again when he heard metallic barking heading in his direction, and it sounded dangerously aggressive.

He backed into a dark alleyway, went into car mode, and gently placed the girl in his backseat. The mech remained mute as an ant and kept his headlights off as he saw the causes of the barking come into his view, they looked to be robotic dogs about the height of a car door handle with dark red eyes, razor sharp teeth, and high beam lights coming out of their shoulders.

"Target out of reach, continue search." One said in monotone.

As soon as the droids left and were out of sight, Bumblebee inched slowly out of the alleyway and sped off as fast as he could. He looked back at the girl making sure she was still alive, his guilt grew more painful as the horrible moment replayed in his memory core.

He had to help her, but he'd be in mega wicked huge trouble if he told Optimus what happened, but then he'd be a real jackass as humans called each other if he didn't take responsibility. Finally Bumblebee worked up the courage and called Optimus.

"Boss bot? Boss bot? Prime? Are you there?"

"Bumblebee? What is it?" Prime replied from the radio.

"I'm heading back to the plant, I need Ratchet's help."

"What? What happened? Were you attacked?"

"I'll explain when I get back…promise me one thing."

"What's that?"

"…that you won't offline me."

Bumblebee then ended his call and sped even faster. The yellow mech finally arrived at the base and transformed with the girl in his hands, but was hesitant to go in, not knowing what to expect from the others.

"Where's that kid? I swear if he's caused any trouble!" He heard Ratchet say.

Bumblebee tensed at the unpleasant tone of his voice, now even more scared to go in. He gazed down at the girl in his hands, feeling even more horrible than ever. He brought her against his chest plate, breathed deeply, and finally walked into the door. It didn't take too long a second for everyone to notice Bumblebee coming in and approached him.

"Bumblebee, what in sparks name happened?" Optimus questioned the mech.

"What kinda trouble did ya get into this time?" Ratchet added gruffly.

Bumblebee didn't answer, he only stared at them with meteorite sized optics that pleaded for help. This caused the rest of group to grow concerned of the yellow bot, no one knew what to do.

"Bumblebee, what's wrong?" Sari asked worryingly.

Bumblebee then brought his hands out to reveal the still unconscious girl to his comrades, gasps of complete shock echoed in the room, then all was silent. Everyone stared at the mysterious girl with widened optics, completely shocked and baffled. Bumblebee looked towards Ratchet with huge optics that were about ready to spring a leak.

"Please…help her." He whimpered.

Ratchet was unsure of what to say to the yellow bot, he didn't even know if he could help her or not. Finally he brought his hands out that were asking for the girl.

"I'll do what ever I can, kid." The old bot said.

Bumblebee gently placed the girl in Ratchet's hands and the medic headed towards his lab, Prowl followed him, wanting to make sense of all this. The others could do nothing more than to wait and pray.

"Bumblebee, where did you find her?" Optimus asked, still getting over the shock.

The little bot stiffened with fear, he knew what was going to be coming to him.

"Uh…in the road." He said.

"Did you see who attacked her?" Bulkhead asked.

"I didn't any one attack her, she was like that before I r"

Bumblebee then stopped himself before saying the rest. But by the way the others were looking at him, they wanted to hear the rest. The mech shook with panic as all sights fixed upon him like dogs staring at a hunk of meat.

"Bumblebee?" Prime spoke.

Bumblebee finally couldn't take it anymore and his guilt exploded in a loud outburst.

"Alright! You want it I'll give it to you! I ran her over! Ok?! I ran her over! I never meant to do it! She ran out in front of me and I couldn't stop in time! Are you all happy now?! Are you?!!"

He then fell to his knees, head hanging low as his body shook with sobs. Everyone in the room was horribly shocked by what they just heard, but Optimus was in the most deepest shock of all. He couldn't believe Bumblebee would ever do something that would threaten the life of a human. He opened his mouth and was about to yell at him, but the little bot said something that stopped Prime from doing so.

"Please don't kill me, Prime. It was an accident. I was so mad from earlier and I wasn't thinking. I never meant to do it, honest I didn't. Please…please forgive me."

Optimus stood in stillness for a short time with a serious expression glued on his faceplate. He then approached the bot, crouched to his level, and put a hand on his shoulder. Bumblebee winced at his touch then looked up at him with light teal liquid coming from his optics

"Bumblebee. You know Autobots are programmed to protect life. Right?"

The yellow mech nodded as a response.

"Your actions were reckless and could have cost the life of a human. I'm honestly disappointed beyond a number of reasons."

Bumblebee's optics grew wider as the leaking process flowed heavier when he heard the disappointment in his leader's voice.

"However…you did take responsibility and seeked medical help for her, and I'm proud that you did."

The bot's optics beamed with hope of forgiveness as the leaking process died down.

"So…do you forgive me?"

"I forgive you." Optimus said. "But a punishment will be decided once we get this whole thing straightened out."

"Slag."

The hours seem to tick by slowly as everyone waited anxiously for Ratchet to bring the news of the mysterious girl's wellbeing. Bumblebee rapidly paced back and forth with extreme anxiousness, driving everyone crazy.

"Bumblebee, calm down will ya? You'll wear a hole in the floor if you keep doing that." Sari said.

The bot ceased his pacing and popped a squat on a large tire, sighing and propping his head in his hands.

"Don't worry, little buddy, I'm sure she'll be ok." Bulkhead said, attempting to perk him up.

The yellow mech didn't say a word, he didn't even look at him. The green giant (and I'm not referring to the vegetable mascot) looked away into a shaded corner, feeling unsuccessful to cheer his friend up.

"I'm sorry." Bumblebee uttered.

Bulkhead looked back at him with his brow ridge raised.

"I'm sorry…for picking that fight. I was just really angry and…I owe you an apology."

Bumblebee suddenly felt a hard pat on his back, he looked up to see Bulkhead towering over him with a smile on his faceplate.

"I forgive ya, little buddy."

At that moment, Ratchet came out with Prowl following him.

"What's her status, Ratchet?" Optimus asked.

"She'll be ok. I was able to repair her injuries, but it wasn't easy. Her wounds were severely bad that I had to sew them closed, and it's a slaggin' pain handling a needle that's practically impossible to see with a Cybertronian eye."

"What was the cause?"

"Her injures seemed to have been caused by something aggressive. Judging by the tears in her clothing, my guess is she was probably in an intense battle."

Suddenly he threw a wrench from nowhere at Bumblebee and it hit him square between the optics.

"OW!!! What the slag was that for?!" He demanded.

"For running her over!" Ratchet replied unpleasantly.

"You heard my confession?"

"How could I not hear it? You were screaming it at the top of your vocalizer!"

"So, is there anything else we need to know about?" The fire truck asked him.

The ambulance said nothing for a nano-click, to be honest, he was just as clueless as the rest of them.

"I…honestly have nothing that could make any sense of this. But…she's just like Sari, both organic and robotic."

"You mean she was a protoform that was touched by a human?" Sari questioned.

"I'm afraid not." Prowl spoke.

"What do you mean by that?" Bulkhead asked.

"I scanned her form and compared it to Sari's, there was no match. Whoever or whatever this female is, she's not Cybertronian, her circuitry is too earth based to be one." The motorcycle explained.

"And that's not even the weird part of it." Ratchet added.

"How so?" Optimus questioned.

"I think it's easier for me to show you rather than explain it."

He led everyone into the lab where the girl lay on the medical berth still unconscious, her injured elbow and knee were bandaged and she was covered with a blanket to prevent her from getting cold. Ratchet pulled up his recent scans on the monitor and selected the one he took hours ago.

As soon as he pulled up the scan, the other's mouths hung open in utter shock, Bulkhead's jaw basically detached itself from his face and fell on the ground.

"Hey, I'm just as shocked as the rest of you." Ratchet said.

"I…I don't know what to make of this." Prime said dumbfounded.

"Well, I can try to explain it as best I can."

The picture of the scan Ratchet pulled up was an X-ray of the girl's internal systems. All her organs, including her skin and brain were completely organic. But her skeletal system was all circuitry in the shape of bones with fluid filled elastic material acting as joints and muscle cables covered it all.

Microscopic tubes carrying blood were spread throughout her body, the main tubes were connected to her heart. The nerves were merged with the circuitry and anything else organic, so she was able to feel sensations, including pain. When Ratchet finished explaining, everyone was just still as statues with dumbfounded expressions.

"So…who does she belong to?" Bulkhead asked, breaking the silence that followed after the "biology lesson".

"Yer askin' me when I clearly don't have a clue myself?" The med-bot replied negatively.

"I think I may have a possible suspect." Prowl said.

But before he could give the name, a stressed moan from the girl caused everyone to freeze stiff. She was waking up and this scared the whole team. How will she react to seeing 5 giant robots staring at her? The girl's eyes slowly opened, revealing an aqua green color in them, and blinked twice to clear her vision.

They suddenly grew to the size of golf balls when she saw the Autobots staring down at her. She slowly rose into a sitting position, eyes locked onto the robots in a tranced gaze.

"What do we do now, Boss bot?" Bumblebee whispered to Prime out of the side of his mouth.

"Don't move. We don't want to risk scaring her in her condition." Optimus replied ,whispering out of the side of his mouth as well.

Just then the girl slowly opened her mouth, but instead of words coming out, she let out a scream so loud it could be heard from a 1,000 mile radius. Everyone's hands flew straight to their audio sensors to block out the deafening sound, windows shattered and nearby machinery malfunctioned at the shrill pitch of the scream.

"So much for not trying to scare her!" Bumblebee yelled over the scream.

The girl then leapt off the medical berth and dashed out the door at a breakneck speed.

"Whoa, she runs pretty fast for someone who just got stitches in their limbs." Sari said as she uncovered her ears.

"Don't let her escape! We may need to question her!" Optimus ordered.

The girl made it out of the hallway and ran for her life towards the exit, but before she could even make it, the rollup door dropped to the ground preventing any means of escape. She turned around and bumped hard into Prowl's leg, nearly falling down.

"Stay." The bot coaxed as if he were commanding a dog.

The girl's fear was immediately replaced with dangerous rage as she drew her fist back and rammed it through the ninja's left leg, practically breaking it in half. Prowl let out a yell of pain and grasped his injured leg, giving the girl the opportunity to pick him up and throw him through a wall, taking him out of commission.

"Whoa! She can lift a robot 5 times her size?!" Sari said surprisingly.

The girl then dug her fingers into the concrete floor and ripped a giant chunk of it out of the ground and threw it at them, they were at least lucky enough to dodge it.

"Slag! She can do it with giant chunks of concrete too!" Bumblebee said, now scared out of his processor.

The girl ripped another chunk out of the ground and threw it at them, just barely grazing their heads. Ratchet was now starting to get really pissed and brought out his magnets, levitating 5 slabs of nearby metal and using them to create a box, trapping the girl inside.

His victory however was cut short when her fists shot right through the thick metal and ripped it away, breaking his magnetic hold. She then tossed it straight into Ratchet's face, taking him out. Optimus shot his bolos entangling the girl, but she broke the cables like they were nothing but tissue.

She then ripped a claw crane from the conveyor belt line and began swinging it around like a rabid maniac, taking out Bumblebee, Optimus, and Bulkhead. The girl nearly trashed half the room before a blue orb knocked the crane out of her hands, she turned to see Sari in a battle position forming another orb bigger than the last one.

Sari shot the orb at the girl, but she deflected it with a mere backslap sending it back at the teen, blasting her instead. Sari was propelled into the ceiling and bounced back down on the floor, the girl then pounced on her and pinned her down with brute force.

Sari's eyes widened with horror when she saw a shard of metal in the girl's hand and realized she was going to stab her to death. The girl drew back the shard and prepared to end the techno-organic's life, but she didn't do it. Her eyes stared into Sari's in a glassy trance of shock, the teen couldn't help but notice the way of her stare, it was almost like she somehow recognized her.

The girl snapped out of her trance and tossed the shard aside, she lifted Sari over her head and flung her into a wall.

She then jumped up a pyramid of boxes, jumped through a shattered window, and ran away into the darkness.

Moments later, everyone was trying to recover from getting beaten senseless. Ratchet had just finished repairing Prowl's leg while the others were cleaning up the mess left from the whole ordeal.

"I can't believe one human kicked all our skid plates." Bumblebee said.

"I'm starting to think she's not as human as she seems to be, little buddy." Bulkhead replied.

"I just don't get it." Sari said out loud.

"Don't get what?" Bumblebee asked.

"She could've killed me when she had the chance, but she held back. And her stare, there was something…bizarre about her stare. It was so…deep and glassy. Almost as if…she knew me from somewhere."

"Ok, this is now getting too weird. How could she possibly know you?" Bumblebee said.

"I-I don't know." Sari replied.

"Alright, this is getting way out of hand." Optimus said. "We need answers and there's only one person who can give them to us. Transform and roll out, Autobots, we're going to pay a personal visit to Professor Sumdac."
