"Well, it's starting." Opptimus looked up from his spot to see the human charge and his team staring down at the TV that shows a location of a New York where it counts down to three minute. He looked down at the time to see that it was almost midnight-much to his surprise.

"What is going on?" Optimus asked as he decided to not be left out from the event that was about to start. Ratchet looked up from his spot and pointed at the screen.

"It's the event for humans to celebrate the end of the year and to the start of the new year. Hence, the time."

Optimus nodded his head as he stared down at the screen as he heard warbled cheers and hoots as he saw the screen showing the small ball going down slowly.

"Odd thing to have it as a tradition..." Optimus was confused of how much a big of a deal of this New Year. Sure it ends the year but what's so special about it? He was confused as the time went down to two minutes.

"Ya can't blame it on the humans, Prime." Bulkhead replied staring at the screen with intent, "It's pretty much of a big deal for them. You heard of how 2012 was like a chaos right? With the end of the world and all that."

Optimus knew what Bulkhead was talking about. There was a riot on about the Mayan empire building a calendar that ended at the December 21 and everyone believed it to be the end of the world-only it was proven that it was more of a New Year for the Myans. Optimus was sure human's are quite an amusing bunch-he even checked the weather to only see that Unicron's still asleep and won't be causing so much trouble for millions of years.

Humans, and their wild imagination.

"It's starting!" The human charge screamed as the others started to countdown. The clock had strike at 10.
