Chapter 1

*Ring, ring, ring, ring* "And remember class there may or may not might be a pop quiz tomorrow. Be prepared" Said Mr. Hosney.

Finally class is over I thought. I rose out of my desk and headed out the door to my locker. I passed by everyone. I didn't have any friends, but then again I didn't want any. I saw them as a waste of time. I couldn't wait to go home so I could sleep away the day with no care in the world.

For all of you who don't know me, my name is Shade. You can call me by my nickname, Shadow. I am 5'6 tall and have short raven hair. I am wearing a black t-shirt with short black pants; I have dark brown eyes and wear an eye patch on my right eye. Do not ask me why I have an eye patch over my right eye, I won't answer that but because of it, many people try to avoid me, which I have no problem with. I am not a "human" but a dandroid. My home planet was lost years ago due to a war for its rich resources. My species have great powers that allows us to so a lot of things that seem to be possible in comic books. And that is all I'm going to say for the time being.

As I was leaving the school campground towards the parking lot, a flash of yellow caught my eye. A yellow cameo with black racing strips leaving; it must be that Sam Witwicky. I moved here from Florida a couple of years ago, and now live next door to the Witwicky household. I have only met them once, when I first moved in, and that was because Mrs. Witwicky wanted to give a warm welcoming into the neighborhood along with her husband and son.

That was the funniest day of our lives. Sasuke who is ,my African parrot, I let out of the cage decided to have some fun. When the Witwickys were not looking, he swooped down in front of Sam scaring him. He screamed like a little girl, running around all over the front yard like there was no tomorrow. Of course Sasuke got a kick out of it; he was laughing his feathery little tail off. The Witwickys were curious about how a bird was able to do that and I said that I taught him.

Back to the present, I had just gotten home from school to a small one story house with many different colored flowers in the front. When I entered the house, I was greeted by Sasuke.

"Finally you arrived home. Do you know how boring it is to stay in the house with nothing to do but watch the neighbors?" says Sasuke.

"Oh, stop your whining and let me get my tail out and wings to stretch out. It is difficult to hide them from the huma…?" Before I got out the next words, I can feel my body almost floating in the air which usually means another vision; I see space with five meteors heading towards earth. One of them seems to contain the relic which we left long ago.

"Hey, are you ok in their? Your mind seems to be wandering when I am talking to you" says Sasuke.

"Oh, shut up and get ready for tonight. I see about five meteors are going to drop down, and one of them will be carrying our old friend the relic" I say.

"What, after all these years of waiting it finally decides to drop down now?" Sasuke says.

"Yes, but we must be careful, we don't want anyone to see us and I don't trust that cameo those Witwicky's own. There is something about it that seems familiar to me, oh well. We will see how things turn out" I say.

-Location: Nest Base-

All military personal were running around rounding up their military vehicles and weapons to get ready to leave. "Is everything prepared for departure?" says Will Lennox.

"Yes, we are just waiting for the boss bot to give the ok" says Robert Epps.

"Ok, I'll let him know everything is ready" says Will.

Will walks into the hanger where all the Autobots are talking to each other, he walks up onto the platform for the giant form of Optimus awaits. "Hey Optimus, everything is ready to go. We're just waiting for you guys" says Will.

"Thank you Will, we are also ready." says Optimus.

"How many are dropping down today, Optimus?" asks Ironhide. "Our scanners pick up five Autobots signals." Answers Ratchet.

"Autobots transform and Roll" says Optimus. All the Autobots transformed and left to get on the planes waiting for them.

-Back to Shade's house night time-

"Are you ready yet? We don't have much time before the meteors break the atmosphere" says Sasuke.

"Will you wait for a minute? I am trying to find my hat" I say.

"Why do you need a black hat in the first place? We are just going to retrieve the relic before anyone else does." Sasuke says.

"It's part of my disguise, bird brain. We have to become one with the environment so that we can leave undetected by the neighbors. Don't you watch TV? It says so on one of the spy channels" I say wearing long black pants and a long sleeve black sweater.

"I don't watch any of your crazy TV shows. Plus, I want to change back into my true form. I've never been able to do so ever since we landed on this planet! Sorry if I'm a little desperate" says Sasuke with a sad little look on his face which almost made me feel bad. Keyword almost.

Yep, if you haven't guessed, Sasuke is also a dandroid but he does not change into a human like me but one of the many species of bird on this planet.

"Fine, let's go! Last one there is a rotten egg. But make sure to do transform when we get out of the town" I tell Sasuke.

"Ok, but exactly where are we going?" asks Sasuke.

"We are going half around the world to the dessert region of Africa!" I excitedly shout out. "Meaning we get a lot of time to stretch out our wings! Aren't you excited?" I exclaimed.

"Then what are we waiting for let's go!" shouts Sasuke as we were nearing the back window that I have left open.

And off we went jumping out the back window spreading out our wings, Sasuke with his little grey wings and mine which are jet black, blending in with the night quite beautifully if I say so myself. As we took off, making sure everyone was asleep, but what we didn't know was that we were being watched by someone we never expected.

-Change POV-

I was parked in the drive way getting ready to recharge after I scanned the area making sure it was safe, when I hear a noise in our new next door neighbors. But what is saw, I was not quite sure but two black figures one which looked like a regular bird but the other I have never seen in all of my existence. It looked to be human but with wings and a tail, and it looked to be flying off out from the neighbors back window.

: Hey Optimus, this is Bumblebee:

: What is it Bumblebee: I hear my leader's baritone voice

: Well, I'm not sure but I saw two black figures jumping out of Sam's next door neighbors back window. One seemed to be a regular bird but the other I could not tell. It seems to be human but it had wings and a tail. Sir, what should I do if it comes back?

: That is interesting, I have not heard of such a thing before. Maybe our human allies know more about this, but for now do nothing but to keep your optics open:

: Yes, sir. Bumblebee out: cutting off the comm. Link. I just laid their thinking about that person that I saw. I wonder what that was, but who that was as well. Why did that person come out of the neighbors place? I'm just going to have to wait for them to come back. There I stayed waiting for recharge to take over.
