Chapter 1 Jazz
Ok I found this just sitting in my computer while I was going through some old files and decided to put it up here. Since it's about two years old I doubt it will ever be continued either but you never know. Anyway just see what you think and let me know.

"Karin? Come on its time to wake up." An overly cherry voice called.
"Umm, five more minutes," Karin slurred snuggling deeper into the duvet.
"Come on 'Rin you've been recharging long enough." Another voice added as someone started jumping on the bed while the first voice chuckled. Karin slowly opened her eyes to see the laughing one grinning down at her from where he sat on her midsection.
"Morning Jazz," she yawned, then blinked. Her eyes widened as she looked at the black robot again.
"Ah hell no!" Karin quickly shot up, knocking back Jazz as well as the red robot that was jumping on the bed and accidently covering them with the duvet.
Karin sat with her mouth open in surprise as she took in the three other figures in her room. Sat cross-legged under the window was a robot with two fins on either side of his head tinkering with some machine on his lap oblivious to all else around him. On the other side of the room stood a yellow robot admiring his reflection in the floor length mirror while a robot pterodactyl sat perched atop its wooden frame watching her curiously.
Karin's shoulders slummed. "It wasn't a dream," she muttered to herself as two forms poked their heads out from under the duvet.
"Well good morning to you too," Jazz frowned as Sideswipe snickered.
"Nice bed head."
Karin didn't comment, instead opting to flop back down on her bed and look up at the ceiling recalling the previous night's events. She thought lightning had stuck in her backyard in the middle of the night but then she found five robots lying there looking dazed and confused.
"Karin get up now. Swoop want to go fly." The pterodactyl announced as he glided over and perched himself on the pillow beside her head.
Karin turned her head to look at him. "Are my parents still here?"
"Your parental units left little under a groon ago leaving a note on your table," Wheeljack replied not looking up from his work.
Karin sat up leaning back on her elbows raising an eyebrow at him but did not bother to question the odd terminology. "And they didn't notice I had some miniature robots running around in my room?" She asked sceptically.
Sunstreaker turned away from the mirror giving her an irritated look. "We had to hide under your bed. Do you have any idea how much dust was under there falling on my finish," he stated irritably. Karin rolled her eyes.
"Sorry Sunshine, I'll get right on to that once you lot are back... where did you lot come from exactly?" Karin asked as she made to get up stretching her arms out in front of her.
"Oregon," Jazz stated. Karin stared at him with a "what the hell?" look.
"Oregon, as in America? How the hell did you get over here?"
"Wheeljack made a warp gate," Sideswipe shrugged.
Karin ran a hand through her hair. "I must be out of my mind," she muttered before turning back to them.
"Alright let me get this straight. Five two foot tall robots in Oregon, built a warp gate and then ended up in my back yard here in Ireland," Karin stated looking at them.
"Well it was 'Jack that made the warp gate, but ya that's it," Jazz replied crossing his arms.
Karin's shoulders slummed. "This is some kind of joke right? Like a prank or something."
"Look human this isn't a joke," Sunstreaker growled.
Karin huffed in response, "Can you prove that?"
"Were Autobots! We don't have to prove anything to you!" Sunstreaker snapped.
Karin threw her arms up in the air. "Ow this is a ridiculous, there's no such thing as Autobots that's just fiction, a cartoon," Karin stated.
The robots stared at her with disbelieving optics before Jazz spoke. "What do you mean Autobots are fiction?"
Karin gave him an odd look before moving over to her desk and opening her laptop.
"I'm saying Autobots and Decepticons are fictional characters made like 20 years ago," Karin explained steeping back so they could see that she had clicked on to Wikipedia and had a page dedicated to the various cartoon series open.
The Autobots stared at the screen as Jazz climbed onto the desk chair and started looking through the page.
"'Jack what did you do!" Sideswipe yelped in panic, flailing his arms around as the inventor looked thoughtful.
"It seems my warp gate not only brought us to a new location, but a different dimension as well, fascinating."
Karin looked down at them with a furrowed brow. "Wait a sec, are you saying that you guys really are... but I thought Transformers where meant to be huge, you lot are tiny?"
"A side effect perhaps? You said we are fiction here so maybe this is the size where meant to be in your world, as toys," Wheeljack offered as solution.
Karin thought that over in her head deciding it made sense and leaned back against the desk.
"So you believe us now?" Sunstreaker sneered at her.
Karin looked at him for a moment considering his words. In truth she wasn't too sure if she did or not, but none of her friends or family were even remotely techie so it couldn't have been them.
"Transform."
Sideswipe and Sunstreaker exchanged a look. "Why?" Sideswipe asked.
"Cuss if you can then I'll believe this is all really happening and isn't some prank or elaborate dream I'm having," Karin explained.
The twins shrugged but then complied transforming into red and yellow Lamborghini's.
"Well at least I know I'm not going completely crazy," Karin said as they transformed back to their bi-pedal forms.
Shaking her head Karin walked over to her window opening the blind to let in the morning light. Turning around she saw that Jazz was on YouTube looking up music videos as Wheeljack had returned to tinkering with his machine. Sunstreaker was once again frowning at his appearance in the mirror, Sideswipe was looking through her game collection and Swoop was looking out her window at the birds flying around the large pine and oak trees.
"Here, don't go too far and don't go attracting attention to yourself, if anyone sees you come straight back alright," Karin instructed fully opening the window as Swoop quickly glided out over the green fields.
"So how do you guys plan on getting home?"
"I'm going to try and reopen the warp gate again, hopefully it will take us back to the Ark," Wheeljack said not looking up from his work.
"You don't sound too confident this will work 'Jack," Jazz observed turning to face the engineer.
"In theory it should work, but there is always the chance we could pick up the wrong frequency and get pulled into another dimensional warp."
"The wrong frequency?" Karin asked nervously.
"Imagine that all of the dimensions are running parallel to each other, but they are all connected by strings, creating bridges between these worlds. What we're going to do is grab hold of one of these strings, hopefully the right one, and it should take us back home," 'Jack explained.
"What if you grab the wrong string?" Sideswipe asked.
"Then we might never find a way back," Wheeljack said with a sound similar to a sigh.
They all sat in silence letting that sink in.
"We have to at least try, don't we?" Sideswipe said.
"Yep. that is why I need to finish repairing this."
"Well, look on the bright side, we don't have to worry about those miserable slaggin Decepticons while were here," Jazz said cheerfully.
"Ya as long as the Decepticons don't make their own warp gate," Sunstreaker huffed.
"Pessimist," Karin muttered, causing him to give her a glare.
"There's a million to one chance of them getting here Sunstreaker, besides why would they bother? They already have Skywarp." Wheeljack said absently.
"So there was a million in one chance of you landing in my back yard. Huh, lucky me," Karin muttered heading for the bedroom door.
"Ugh 'Rin," she turned around to see Sideswipe waving a piece of paper.
"Oh! Thanks 'Sides," Karin grinned taking the note from him as he scurried back over to her games.
"I didn't think girls liked these kinds of games," he commented looking at the games that ranged from Dragon Age to Need for Speed.
"Some of us do 'Sides. My brother has some more down the hall if you don't want to play these ones, just don't scratch them," she warned reading over the note.
"Well guys you have two weeks to fix that doohickey of yours," Karin said opening her door, Jazz following her out.
"Why what happens in two weeks?"
"My brother will be back from summer camp and my parents will be back from their second honeymoon," she replied walking over to the wooden staircase as Jazz looked through the banister to the first floor.
"Want a lift?" She asked with a chuckle holding out her arms. The Autobot looked down at the lengthy staircase for a moment then hopped into her arms.
"So you have the house to yourself for two weeks huh?" He asked a smirk slipping onto his face as Karin placed him on the kitchen counter.
"Ya?" She said raising an eyebrow at him as she flicked on the kettle and put two slices of bread in the toaster.
"Femme how old are you?" He asked placing his hands on his hips.
"You know girls normally take offence at that question," Karin pointed out mirroring his stance.
"Ya, when their old, but your what seventeen?" He ventured looking at her tipping his hand in a so-so gesture.
Karin huffed narrowing her eyes, "Nineteen actually."
"And your parents let ya have free reign in this big house, for two weeks?"
"They happen to trust me not to do anything stupid. Although maybe not their best move seeing as I'm talking a miniature alien robot standing on the kitchen counter," she mussed.
"Ya true babe, but not what I was referring to."
"What?" She asked with a smirk of her own. "Think I'm going to have a raging party or something?" She asked pouring a mug of tea and buttering her toast.
"Well ya, isn't that what teenagers do when there folks are away?" He asked shrugging.
"When the cats away the mice come out to play," Karin laughed, "I live in a small area outside of town Jazz and my parents know everybody I would never get away with it even if I was bothered too,"
"They can't know everyone," Jazz said.
"Believe me they do. My dad's a contractor and has worked in nearly every building around and mom has run the hotel management in town for the past twenty years. Plus her best friend is the biggest gossip there is," Karin shrugged.
"Fair enough, what about a boyfriend?"
"Why all the questions?"
Jazz shrugged, "Is that a yes?"
"That's a no," she replied with an eye roll.
"He turned out to be a jerk?" Jazz guessed.
"No, there never was a he," Karin replied taking a bite of her toast.
"She then?"
Karin laughed, "No Jazz, there's never been anyone."
"What? Why? I thought you teens are normally all over each other."
"Well for one all the guys around here are complete jerks and any of the somewhat decent ones are taken. And they all happen to want the pretty blue eyed blonds," Karin shrugged. "Besides, I don't want to waste my time on a high school crush, it would never last."
Jazz frowned. "Ya but Hey! What's thaahh!" Jazz had turned around when he felt something at his back and now sat frozen staring at the large canine behind him with its two black paws on the counter.
"Karin..."
"Relax Jazz, I think he likes you now," Karin said then stiffed a giggle as the Alsatian gave Jazz a slobbery lick.
"Ugh yuck!"
"Down Griffin leave Jazz alone," Karin ordered with a laugh, Griffin barked happily running over to Karin's side and jumping on her.
"Ahh! Claws you big lug sit down!" Karin yelped hopping back from the dog.
"Don't bother giving me those big brown eyes; I'm immune to your charms," Karin said rubbing the red claw marks on her legs; Griffin bowed his head shamefully giving a pathetic whine.
"Ugh fine," Karin huffed giving him the rest of her breakfast. "And don't say I never give you anything, manipulative pup," she said scratching behind his ears as he barked happily.
"That's what attacked us last night?" Jazz said surprised, looking down at the playful brut.
"Griffins a guard dog, so as you can imagine he wasn't too happy that intruders got into his territory without him knowing. Did ya 'Griff?"
"Huh, sorry buddy didn't mean to trespass on ya." Griffin looked up at him and barked in acknowledgment.
"Ha! He's pretty smart for a dog," Jazz laughed as Griffin started sniffing his foot pedal.
"He's just a big softy really," Karin said putting her mug in the sink. Stretching her arms above her head Karin turned back around to Jazz.
"I better go get dressed," she said looking down at her purple spaghetti strap top and shorts night clothes. "You coming back up?"
Jazz smirked, "Sure if I get to see you change."
"Perv," she said going to swipe at his helm which he expertly dodged by jumping off the counter and climbing on top of Griffins back.
"Yeha! Giddy up little doggie!"
Karin laughed heading up the stairs with Griffin carrying Jazz hot on her heals.
Swoop had returned and was now sitting on the bed beside Karin who was now dressed in a pair of old jeans, black camisole, and converse.
"Well 'Jack what's the verdict?" Jazz asked the inventor. Wheeljack put down what he had been working on which looked a bit like a ray gun with three spikes on the end.
"I think I've got it but I don't have a lock on the base yet."
"And how are you supposed to get that if it doesn't exist in this world?" Sideswipe asked, he had taken a liking to Griffin and was lying against him with his servos folded behind his helm.
Switching open a panel on the machine Wheeljack revealed a screen showing a line graph.
"This is what the dimensional fields looked like the first time we passed through, now look at this one." He instructed pushing a few more buttons causing a second graph to appear, only this time the lines where moving around, some would freeze for a moment then move up and others would move down, others weaved in and out of each other than off in different directions again.
"If I'm right, then when the fields match up in the same pattern as the one that brought us here I should be able to open a gateway back home for us," Wheeljack explained.
"How are we going to know when that will happen?" Sunstreaker asked crossing his arms.
"I've set the warp gate transmitter to let off an alarm before the fields a line; it should give us enough time to open the gate."
"And you're sure this will get you to the correct dimension?" Karin asked.
"This is the only pattern we have to go by; it's our best bet."
"And it won't explode?" Sideswipe asked suddenly causing the other bots to step back and Karin to look at them curiously.
"Why do ye always think my inventions are going to explode?"
"Because they always do 'Jack."
"Me Swoop not explode. And Wheeljack built me."
"Good point Swoop bud," Jazz laughed.
"Ya but Ratchet helped build the Dinobots so they don't really count," Sunstreaker pointed out. Wheeljack was about to retort when Karin stood up.
"Alright guys knock it off your meant to be friends," Karin said placing a hand on her hip, Sideswipe and Sunstreaker both looked down slightly ashamed.
"Look you guys can stay here until you can open this gate of yours and then you'll be back home ok? No worries right," Karin stated.
"Question. What are we supposed to do till then?" Sideswipe asked.
"Um well what do you guys like to do? I rather if ye stayed here to keep ye safe but..," Karin trailed off rubbing the back of her neck.
"Don't worry about a thing baby girl we can keep ourselves occupied," Jazz said standing up with a smirk.
"You sure? Don't you guys need to eat or something?"
"We refuel on energon but since we don't need to currently use any energy we will be alright until we return home," Wheeljack explained.
"Huh? Alright then but what do you lot plan to do while you wait?" Karin asked looking down at them.
"I think we're going to have a go at some of those games of yours," Sideswipe said as he and Sunstreaker made their way over to her pile of games.
"Me Swoop want to see," Swoop said following them.
"I'm going to run some more tests on this to make sure this stays fully operational,"
"And you Jazz?" Karin asked.
"Ow I'm sure I'll find something to occupy my time," he said ginning wolfishly up at her causing her to narrow her eyes playfully.
"Griff if he does anything out of the way you know what to do," Karin grinned down at the Alsatian before turning on her heels and heading down stairs.
"Hey hey wow! Where are you going?" Jazz asked running after her.
"I've got to go and clean out the garage," Karin replied with a small pout.
"Why?"
"End of the year prank at school," she stated simply.
"What did you do?"
"Drove the teacher's nuts. We all brought in alarm clocks, set them to go off one at a time with a two minute gape in between and hid them everywhere in the school, lockers, air vents, above ceiling tiles and in teachers' desks. Then we filled the halls with bouncing balls and then me and my friends dressed up as packmen and ghost's then ran around the school screaming while the others chased us saying 'waka waka'. It went rather well until we tripped on the bouncing balls and landed in a heap in the hallway, right in front of the principle,"
Jazz laughed outright at the mental image he had gathered.
"So your parents are punishing you for that?" He asked.
"I think mom just needed an excuse to get someone to clean that place up, it's a complete tip and she refuses to set foot in there claiming it's a death trap," Karin said rolling her eyes continuing on her way as Jazz looked down on her through the railing.
"So she sent you to do it?" He asked with a smile.
"Yep, I feel so loved," Karin replied sarcastically in a sing song voice.
After the bots had grown tired of their various activities, and certain bots were done snooping, they decided to go and look for Karin.
"Huh, this must be what it's like for the humans when their around us," Sideswipe stated as they followed Griffin through the kitchen and into the porch where a door connected to the garage.
"She wasn't kidding," Jazz mussed once they reached their destination. The room was filled with boxes, paint cans, old twisted bits of metal and tools with an old red Honda Accord parked in the middle of all the chaos.
Karin was kneeling on top of a stool trying to reach a shelf above the work bench.
"Karin?!" Sideswipe called.
Karin jumped in surprise with a short squeak before latching onto the stool as it wobbled uncertainly.
"Holy crap Sides'! Warn a girl next time," Karin said running a hand through her hair. Sideswipe gave a nervous laugh.
"Sorry 'Rin," He apologised. Karin shook her head with a smile as she sat down on the stool.
"So got tired of the games did ya?"
"Just came to see how the clean-up was going," Jazz said as he climbed into the Honda and started fiddling with the radio.
"This mess isn't going anywhere!" Karin grumbled with a sigh turning to glare at the room as if in hopes that her disapproving gaze would make it disappear.
"We noticed. What is all this junk anyway?" Sunstreaker said walking over to a box that was on the floor.
"No idea, my mom has issues with letting things go," Karin replied with a shrug.
"Clearly," Sunstreaker muttered pulling out an old school book from when Karin was five.
"Watch out for the dust bunnies Sunny," Sideswipe laughed before running under the car, avoiding the old copy that was hurled at his helm.
Jazz had found a station he liked and was dancing around in the front of the Honda while Wheeljack was inspecting its engine.
Karin left them at it and went back to sorting out the mess around her. Unfortunately that didn't last long as Sideswipe was determined to have some fun.
Swoop was poking through some of the boxes on the shelves and Sunstreaker had found an old art book to look through. If any of them had been paying attention they would have noticed the mischievous glint in Sideswipes optics.
"Karin do you have any art supplies?" Sunstreaker asked looking up at the human.
Karin scratched the back of her head thinking. "Umm ya, I think there up in my room... but I'm not sure where exactly."
"There under her, what's the word? Oh ya, panties drawer," Jazz smirked as Karin turned several shades of red.
"JAZZ YOU WENT THROUGH MY STUFF!" She shrieked making to grab him.
"Heh can ya blame a guy? Hey wow!"
"Get back here you perverted little robot!" Jazz laughed outright as they ran around the Honda.
"What's wrong Karin? 34C an't bad!"
"Jazz!"
"What 34C mean?" Swoop asked cocking his head to the side.
"It's the size of Karin's chest," Wheeljack explained when Sunstreaker shrugged.
No one had noticed when a trip wire suddenly appeared in front of Jazz and Karin until it was too late.
"Hey! Wow!"
"Ahh!"
"Timber!" Sideswipe laughed as Jazz slipped on an oil spill and rammed into wall causing a loosely closed paint tin to wobble uncertainly on its shelf overhead.
Jazz wobbled on his peds turning around to see Karin who had landed on her front lean up on her forearms. They both looked at each other, then slowly brought there gazes up just in time to see a tin of green paint fall off the shelf and land straight on top of Jazz.
"Sunny, I think we found you some paint supplies," Jazz said after a pause, taking the tin off to his helm giving his laughing companions a glare. Even Karin who was splattered with paint was trying and failing miserably to stifle her giggles.
"Alright let see how they like it," he said quietly so only Karin could hear. Her eyes glowed with laughter as she sat up on her keens. Jazz transformed into his alt mode and backed into a puddle of paint before spinning his tiers.
"Jazz!"
"My paint!"
"Me Swoop green now,"
"Paint fight!"
Karin sat breathing heavily against the Honda. Sideswipe was leaning against her side and Jazz was sitting on her lap.
"Sorry 'Rin the place is a bigger mess than before," Sideswipe said sheepishly.
"The place needed a bit of colour anyway," Karin replied patting his helm.
"Me Swoop all colourful now," Swoop said as he perched himself on Karin's shoulders.
Karin grinned before looking down at Jazz.
"Hey, you lot are water proof right?"
Jazz tilted his helm to the side as he looked back at her.
"Course we are."
"Good," Karin said as she quickly stood up holding Jazz and Sideswipe like ragdolls.
"Jack, Sunny ye come too." The two bots gave each other cautious looks before following her.
Karin led them into a white and blue tiled room. She set the bots down and Swoop changed his perch from Karin's shoulder to the bathroom sink. Karin then leaned over a large white bath tub and turned a leaver. Water gushed into the tub and then she turned to look at her guests.
"Get in."
"What?" Sunstreaker blurted.
"Do you want to get that paint off or not?" Karin sniped.
Reluctantly the five Autobots climbed in, the water staining almost instantly around their peds. Karin had some sponges and soap along the side of the tub as she helped the bots wash some of the harder to reach places.
"There all done!" Karin proclaimed still kneeling beside the tub.
"Not quite," Sideswipe said sharing a look with Jazz. Quick as a flash both bot reached up grabbing Karin's arms and pulled her in with a resulting splash.
"Guys!" Karin laughed shrieked as Sideswipe, Jazz and even Sunstreaker started to climb on top of her. Wheeljack and Swoop had climbed out of the tub and where now drying themselves off.
"Karin you're still covered in paint," Sideswipe laughed tickling her sides.
"Ahh! I know I know! Ahh stop, stop, stop!"
Ring! Ring!
"Shit!" Karin said bolting up and stumbling out of the tub. Jazz was holding onto the back of her top and was dangling after her as she slipped out into the hallway leaving a trail of water behind them.
"Hello?" Karin answered breathlessly. Jazz had now climbed onto her shoulders and was listening in.
"Karin? Are you alright?"
"Mom! Ya, I'm grand why?" Karin asked pushing some wet hair out of her eyes before casting a glance at Jazz.
"You just sound a bit... frazzled. What are you doing?"
"I was cleaning the garage," Karin said in a deadpanned voice.
"Ahh, I see. Have you made any progress?"
"Well it has been given a makeover; let's just leave it at that," Karin said leaning against the wall, Jazz gave a small smile.
"I'm not even going to ask."
"That would be for the best ya. Anyway how's the trip going?"
"Lovely only I can't find a comfy pair of shoes over here. It's Paris for goodness sake you would think they would have a decent pair of shoes."
"Mom you know I won't have a clue what you're talking about if you keep going on about shoes," Karin cut in with a roll of her eyes.
"Ugh, what sort of a daughter have I?" She said in mock frustration.
"Ya ya I thought we had established that a long time ago."
"Alright. Ow by the way I found this adorable little outfit for you," Her mother squealed.
"Lady in nineteen years old! I'm well able to buy my own cloths."
"And I got you something from Victoria's secret too," Jazz was muffling his laughter at Karin's horrified expression.
"Mom can you put dad on the phone," Karin quickly cut in.
"Hum? Ow sure."
"Karin."
"If you love me you will make sure those things don't make to this house," Karin ordered in a deadly serious tone causing her father laugh and Jazz to snigger.
"Now don't be mean Karin."
"I am not being dressed up like a Barbie doll!" Karin hissed.
"Karin, just humour her."
"Ugh, you so owe me old man," Karin growled after a moment causing him to laugh.
"Has everything been alright at home? Anything strange happen?"
"Not really, just your average robot alien invasion," she replied offhandedly with a shrug. Poor Jazz looked as if he was about to get a spark attack until he heard laughter on the other side of the phone.
"I'm sure you're right on top of that."
"Of course I am, I better go one of them is trying to pull out my hair, bye!" She said hanging up turning her head to look at Jazz who smiled sheepishly as he let go of a fist full of her tangled hair.
"I thought you were gona sell us out there," he said with a sheepish laugh.
"Like I said before this stuff just doesn't happen. Besides; no one would believe me anyway," she said with a shrug as she turned back towards the bathroom. She gave an annoyed sigh at the puddles of water she had left in her wake.
"Sooo Victoria's secret?" Jazz asked with a sly grin.
"One word and you're spending the night in the dog house," Karin replied with a glare. Jazz made a show of zipping is mouth closed and throwing away the key but wore a large grin on his face the whole time.
They walked into the bathroom and stopped to see the mess that remained. There was more water on the floor then in the tub and the curtains also seemed to have gotten a good soaking.
Sideswipe and Sunstreaker were just finishing drying themselves off while Swoop and Wheeljack had pulled out the contents of the press under the sink. Swoop had a container of exfoliating cream and was picking bits of fine sand grains out of it with his beak. All that was going through Karin's head was that she hoped it wasn't from that expensive gift set her mother's boss had given to her for her fortieth birthday last month. That was until she saw what Wheeljack had.
"Guaranteed all night protection," he read aloud causing Karin's face to turn red.
"Tell me what purpose this serves," Wheeljack asked without guilt as Jazz tried not to laugh.
"Well 'Jack, Jazz seems to have plenty of knowledge on human female possessions so I'm sure he can explain it you while I have a shower. Ow and you can get Sunny those art supplies too," Karin replied with a pursed lip while kicking them out of the bathroom and locking the door before peeled off her wet clothes and steeping into the shower.
Once she was finished and was sure she had all of the paint out of her hair, Karin stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around herself before poking her head out the door.
"Ruff!"
Karin raised an eyebrow in surprise when she saw Griffin with Jazz perched on his back holding up a pile of clothes.
"Special delivery!"
Karin laughed taking the clothes from him.
"Hum service with a smile too. I'll be out in a sec kay," Karin said closing the door again.
"Jazz you little perv I need a top too," she said poking her head out the door again with a glare.
"Top? What is this top you speak of?" Jazz asked making a show of looking confused. Griffin let out a growl before doing a quick bucking motion causing Jazz to fall off and land on his arft.
"Ugh! Hey man that's not cool!"
Griffin barked in response.
"I was too gona give it to her alright! I was just messing around a bit first." Jazz retorted to which the dog gave a sniff and a snort shaking his head.
"Ya Ya, I know," Jazz huffed standing up and pulling a jumper out of seemingly nowhere and handing it to Karin who looked at him in surprise.
"H...how did you?"
Jazz chuckled. "Subspace, it's like a mini black hole," he explained. Karin nodded her head in understanding.
"Huh cool," she said pulling the jumper over her head.
She had been slightly surprised when she found that Jazz had brought a pair of black cargo pants and a violet V-neck top. At the way he acted she had expected him to have brought some skimpy outfit that her mother insisted on purchasing. Karin decided to ignore the fact that Jazz had once again been through her underwear drawer but had opted to ask why he seemed to know more about human females than an alien robot should.
"Humans are interesting. Besides babe, what else am I meant to do when stuck on monitor duty?" He asked with a shrug.
"Your job maybe," Karin said with a roll of her eyes as she brushed her wet hair.
"I'm a master at multitasking.."
"I suppose you were listening to music as well while you were monitoring for Decepticons and researching humans."
"Aww you know me so well babe. But seriously we really only had interactions with the males of your species, so I decided to see the differences."
"Including lingerie?"
"I'm very thorough with my research."
"Ow? Just how thorough were you?" Karin asked turning to look at him the corner of her lip rising as he leaned on the doorframe. His visor brightening slightly as his signature smirk grew.
Crash!
"Karin! Jazz! Help! Sunny's trying to scrap me!"
"Don't call me Sunny! Now get back here you lousy piece of slag! I'm gona turn you into spare parts!"
The sound of revving engines filled the house as two Lamborghinis raced up and down the hall until the red one transformed and climbed out a nearby window quickly followed by his twin.
Jazz looked after them with an irritated frown while Karin rolled her eyes with a smile.
"Should we be concerned?" She asked as she hung up the wet towels and picked up the discarded clothes.
"As long as they are not seen by anyone; no," Jazz answered watching as Griffin jumped out the window barking after the twins.
"I'll just tell them there my brother's toys," Karin shrugged as she walked down the hall.
"Your brother that is away at summer camp?"
"I was suffering from a severe case of boredom," Karin answered with an over exaggerated nod, as she dumped her clothes into the washing machine and walking into the kitchen.
"Where are Swoop and 'Jack gone?" She asked turning to him with a quirked eyebrow.
"There around somewhere," Jazz replied off handily. Karin dismissed it picking up a shiny red apple and biting into it before smiling at Jazz.
"So clean the garage or movie marathon?" She asked Jazz matched her smirk with one of his own.
"Anything but some sappy romance story," he answered.
"Ahh a robot after my own heart," Karin said letting out a breathy sighed as she headed into the living room with Jazz hot on her heals.
"Were Cybertronians there's a big difference," he pointed out folding his arms as he inspected the DVD collection before picking an action movie and handing it to Karin.
"Right, you have personalities and don't run on batteries," Karin replied off handily flopping down onto the couch. Receiving a dry look in response
"You know I'm just kidding," she said waving her hand at the look. "There's no way you guys could be just robots you're too... human, I guess if that makes any sense," Karin said looking a bit confused herself but shrugged it off.
Jazz grinned pulling himself up beside her. "Nope, but I think I get ya."
"Well isn't that all that matters," Karin grinned as the movie started.
Gods what am I doing? She wondered to herself looking down at Jazz out of the corner of her eye.
I'm watching a movie with a miniature alien robot as if I do it every day of the week! God I must have hit my head on something, but still... I haven't felt this... comfortable in a long time, I already like him and the others as much as I like the people I've been friends with since I was a little kid. Karin mentally shook her head a smile pulling onto her face.
Well, at least they will make the next two weeks interesting, if there even here that long. Karin thought finding a more comfortable position as she decided to make the most of it and enjoy the movie with Jazz, ignoring the sounds of the other Autobots that had taken up refuge in her home.
