Alexandra's POV

The next morning…

"…wake up…I think it's 9 already…" my twin groaned, still half-asleep with her eyes closed and her voice muffled by her pillow.

"Already? What time did we sleep last night? I think it was 6 or 7 or something…so much for sleeping at 4…" I moaned as I lifted my head off my own pillow.

"Oh, shut up already…I wanna go back to sleep…" Van whined, turning over.

"Rise and shine, ladies!" Tori and my stepdad knocked on their door.

"Ughhhh…okay, okay. I'm up," said Tori, mildly annoyed, sitting up and getting off her bed, rubbing her eyes as she looked around lazily. "Wait…WHAT THE FRAG?"

"What is it, Tori?" I stood up wobbily and looked at our room that looked as if it was missing some things PRETTY important, "WHAT THE PIT HAPPENED TO OUR TRANSFORMERS STUFF?"

"Primus! Where did all your stuff go?" Vanessa sat up on the bed, a worried and confused look on her usually smiling face.

"Our wish…" I suddenly whispered, my eyes snapping wide open. Huh…I was always the smart one in the family…even though technically, there was only one competitor.

"Oh My Primus. Check google for any transformers related stuff now!" Tori rushed to her white Macbook laptop and turned it on. All of us waited impatiently. When the familiar Google logo popped up with its searchbox, I hurriedly typed in "Transformers". However, we came up with nothing but vacuums and other stupid, unhelpful electrical appliances and household products.

"Okayy…search for giant alien robots," Vanessa tapped her foot nervously. The whole thing had only 3 results which we were interested in. One of them was called "Sector Seven", which only showed one word ""Login". The second was , which the girls, of course, knew it was Leo Spinz and his friends' website. The last was called , which was "Robowarrior" aka. Simmons.

Tori gasped as she looked towards the latest Time magazine which we had threw on our couch last night, which was supposed to state 2 October 2011, "There is nothing listed that has happened anywhere near today in the Time magazine! Plus the date at the top says 10 September FRAGGING 2008!"

Vanessa widened her eyes in fright and said, "But I'm still 16 and you're still 17."

I, then, went on Prowl mode and said, "Yeah, Primus did this for a reason, maybe we have to help the transformers like we asked. First, we need to contact Sam Witwicky and tell him about what we know and how we know this stuff since he's probably going to the most understanding about our whole situation. Hopefully, he will believe us and nobody won't think of us as enemies or Decepticon pretenders or anything of that sort. But we can never be sure, we might get interrogated or something. Scratch that…course we will. Simmons might be stupid and idiotic, but even HE can't be that stupid and idiotic. Pack some essential stuff and extra clothing in a gym bag quickly. We probably won't get to leave for a while. AND DON' T FORGET YOUR ALLSPARK SHARD NECKLACES! At least we still have those…for some reason"

Suddenly, they noticed that the Allspark shards hanging on their necks seemed heavier, if that were possible.

No one's POV

Meanwhile as the girls packed, in some other part of Nevada, Optimus Prime and some of his comrades were preparing to go to the girls' residence themselves.

"I have sensed a very strong Allspark energy signal in a city called Reno," said Ratchet, "We must get to them before the Decepticons do. It will be easier for us than for them as we are closer."

"Yes, I strongly agree. We must find those shards. Sideswipe, Sunstreaker and Bumblebee, you come with me to find those shards. Do not forget, that if we can sense the energy, so can the Decepticons. Be alert of your surroundings," Optimus Prime commanded as he transformed into his alt mode, a red Peterbilt 379 with custom blue flames at the bottom, driving himself out of NEST's gates.

Sideswipe and Sunstreaker nodded, them too, transforming into their own alt modes, two red and yellow Lamborghini Gallardos and following the Prime out of NEST's gates with Bumblebee following shortly behind.

Alex's POV

"Okay, let's see what we already have," Victoria said, "I have my iPhone 4…hey! This is sooo cool! Since now it's 2008, I have a phone that hasn't come out yet! This is sooo cool! Anyways, back to the main topic, I also have some extra clothes, my $300 leftover from the mini shopping spree we went on yesterday in my wallet, my Macbook, girl stuff…yeah, that's about it."

"I have pretty much the same thing, except with obviously, an iPhone 3G and $200 instead of $300." Vanessa said quickly.

"I have yeah, same thing as Victoria, except for a pocket hairdryer, lipgloss, mascara, an iPhone 3GS and some nail polishes, more clothes, plus I was thinking about a curling iron ya know? You never know when you might need one, it's a TOTAL lifesaver!" I looked happily at the other two, who were face-palming themselves.

"Come on, Alex…you know you don't need, the makeup, nail polish, hairdryer OR the curling iron…" my twin started.

"No no no no no no," I replied, "I need them all and will keep them in this bag that I WILL CARRY. Do I make myself clear or do I need to repeat that statement which I just made?"

"Please, Alex?" Vanessa turned on her cute, pitiful puppy eyes to me. I went all into "aww" mode…slag her and her irresistible, incredibly innocent and cute puppy eyes…

"Oh no! Not the puppy eyes! Come on, Van! …oh, fine…but I'm DEFINITELY keeping my leggings and my extra bag!" I sighed in defeat.

"Okay, everyone! We pretty much got everything we need! Let's get a move on, people!" Tori cheered as she walked towards the door.

"Uhhh aren't you forgetting something, Tori?" I motioned towards my pyjamas as well as hers and Van's.

Victoria face-palmed herself as the girls went to the twins' closet and got out an outfit each which were suitable and comfortable enough for the trip.

They ran downstairs, not even bothering to brush their hair, Vanessa and Victoria because there was no time, me because it actually looked like a bedhead for once after I slept! Woot! It looks like a bedhead! IT LOOKS LIKE A BEDHEAD! YAY!

Our parents looked towards us. "Finally!" Vanessa's stepmom exclaimed, "I thought you had forgotten and went back to sleep!"

"Oh…okay, sorry mom, anyways, we have some friends to meet today. Sorry, forgot to tell you guys! We're having a road trip with Zoe. Her big brother and her little sister Cathy will be accompanying us. So we probably won't be back for a few days." Vanessa lied smoothly as my twin and I smirked at her evil side peeking through. Zoe was our former classmate and her family had actually just moved to California a week ago. Plus, we didn't really know her or her family that well, but it wasn't not like our stepparents would know that.

"Sure! Off you go, you don't want to keep them waiting!" our stepdad winked at us. "Have a nice time!" our stepmom and Vanessa's stepdad added.

"Oh, we will!" we smiled, smirking inwardly at Van's incredible, totally awesome skill at lying. Though I was TOTALLY better. Just saying.

No one's POV

Near them, actually, more like right next to the girls' houses, were four cars parked not-so-inconspicuously. The Lamborghinis were attracting quite a lot of attention, the Peterbilt and the Camaro, a little less, but only a little. Sideswipe and Sunstreaker smirked, enjoying the attention that they were getting but when they got touched, not so much. Sunstreaker couldn't resist the urge slightly electrocuting the next unlucky person who touched his precious alt mode which he always kept pristine and clean, in top condition, not settling for anything below that standard. Sideswipe laughed softly, attempting to keep his alt mode from shaking a little.

Victoria's POV

As we headed out the door, we noticed a red and a yellow Lamborghini Gallardo, a yellow Camaro with black racing stripes and a red Peterbilt truck with customized blue flames on the sides. It couldn't be…could it? Could it be Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Bumblebee and Optimus Prime? ZOMG. We froze and Vanessa whispered so softly that the Autobots almost couldn't hear, "Autobots?"

It was then the Autobots' turn to freeze. They probably didn't know how we knew them or how much we knew about them, don't' blame them I guess. Bumblebee revved his engine as the people backed away, not knowing if there was anyone inside as the windows were tinted almost pure black. Suddenly, the Autobots' attention shifted to our chests. I don't know how I know but I kind of felt their gaze so I crossed my arms, blocking their view of my chest and the Allspark shard laying on it. I was seriously doubting our opinion of them. Maybe they were Decepticons with the Autobots' alt modes to trick us? I seriously didn't know and hoped I wasn't right. They probably were the Autobots, but we could never be sure. Alex, smart girl she was, went right up to Sunstreaker and stroked his alt mode, getting a slight electric shock and an annoyed rumble shortly followed by a string of curses from Alex that would have made Ratchet wash her mouth out. Then we knew that it had to be the Autobots because no one really did that, unless he was Sunstreaker.

Alex's POV

"Should we get into their alt modes?" Van looked questioningly at Tori. Suddenly, a blonde-haired guy who looked like he was 18 or 19 stepped out of Sunstreaker. He had eyes so bright blue that it looked unnatural. He was so fragging hot, really really hot, especially with his toned chest which showed under the white kinda-tightish t-shirt he was wearing and everything. I shook my head, attempting to clear my head…WHAT THE FRAG IS HAPPENING TO ME? I never, ever, got distracted. This is so slagging unlike me. Those who distracted me, got the slag beaten out of them. And this guy, whoever he is, was SOOO gonna get it, hot or not.

"Who are you?" the man inquired with no emotion in his voice, merely having his eyes glare slightly at me. I glared right back, even harder and colder (I hope).

The red Lamborghini (Sideswipe? I don't know. Sunstreaker was here so…) revved his engine, as if warning the guy. if he revved so he could warn the guy, he was right to warn him. We were a trio not to be trifled with.

"She's Alexandra, I'm Victoria and the girl standing beside me is Vanessa," Victoria answered, also unfazed by the man's cold manner. I am so grateful that I taught her how not to show her emotions and that she had remembered and taken my advice.

"Sorry but we need you to come with us," another man, looking slightly younger than the blonde one stepped out of Bumblebee, with a happier demeanour.

"Okay…who are you?" Tori asked suspiciously as I eyed the two men carefully, analyzing which way to attack them was best if they decided to kidnap her and her friends are something.

"Just come with us," the blonde man said coldly, "Did you not hear me before? Are you stupid or something?" Who did this guy think he is? He just made a very big mistake, whoever he is.

Rule 1 about me: Do NOT call me a dumb blonde. Because a), I'm not one, b) you will, I promise, get the SLAG beaten out of you, and finally c) you do NOT want to make an enemy of me. Seriously. I mean it. It's really for your own safety. If you want me as an enemy, fine, but don't go crying to mommy when you try to anger or annoy me and I beat the slag outta you.

I know I'm a combination you don't really see everyday. I'm kickbutt, sarcastic, pretty protective of my twin and Vanessa, immaculately neat, pretty, loving cars and transformers, but it's me and that's all that matters so get over it or get used to it. Just another little tidbit about me. Right, back to reality.

Vanessa's POV

Oh. My. Primus. That guy did NOT just call us stupid. Autobot or Decepticon, I will personally beat the FRAGGING PIT out of him and make sure no one recognizes him afterwards. I know I'm not usually violent but this is way, WAY over the line. Seriously! I clenched my fists, glaring at him as hard as I could, noticing Tori and Alex do the same. We got ready to pounce on him, ready to beat him mercilessly for what he said.

Tori made a signal that only Alex and I would understand. She was using one of our many battle strategies (What? We make them up in our free time when we're bored) that we had created, which of one called the "Three=One" attack, in which one of us would say to count to three, but really, three meant one in this situation as when she would only say one before we attacked the victim instead of one, two and three.

"On a count of three," Tori's eyes gleamed mischievously and narrowed her eyes at the boy, "One." We ran towards the boy, yelling all sorts of insults and obscenities at him, determined to make him pay and apologize after we beat the slag out of him.

Tori and Alex both say I look REALLY innocent and cute, which sounds kind of ironic and deceiving when you actually know the REAL me, who's almost just as insane and fun as the twins, maybe not so sadistic and violent though. Apparently, I manipulate people with my sweet charms and looks. Nice…I guess that's what happened with our parents. (cute grin)

As we ran towards him, screaming battle cries, he fragging DISAPPEARED, man! Seriously? Holoforms already? Oh right, now I remember, Chromia and Arcee had them in the second movie. Hahahaha! Just wondering how Alex would feel if this guy was the actual ONE and ONLY Sunstreaker! Hahahaha! Bet she's thinking about how hot he is. He is hot, just not my type I guess. Okay, back to us.

He fragging DISAPPEARED! No joke! We were like, standing there with our jaws hanging open. Alex screamed, like, really loudly. Which hurt all of our ears, because I saw the Autobots slightly shy away from her. Huh, didn't blame them.

"WHAT THE FRAG HAPPENED BACK THERE? WHAT'S WITH THE STUPID DISAPPEARING TRICK?" she screamed, glaring at every one of us, mostly at the yellow lambo the guy came out from.

Suddenly, a custom black and white cop Mustang car came out of his hiding place, which was behind me and transformed. I was kinda surprised, but not really. I mean, I knew he was Barricade. There's only one cop car around who would have "to punish and enslave" with the Decepticon insignia on his car. However, we still froze for a split second and that's all the Autobots needed to shove us inside them with their holoforms. Me inside Bee, Tori Sideswipe and Alex Sunstreaker.

Sunstreaker's POV

Who did this femme think she was, talking and glaring at me like that? She was testing my patience! It wasn't exactly my fault…okay fine, maybe it was but still, I had a short fuse and that girl set me off pretty quickly. I blame her.

Now I was what the squishies called it, majorly pissed, as Barricade had snuck upon us without ANY of us realizing and now I had to have the disgusting organic inside of me, who was still shrieking at me.

When Barricade attempted to pounce on Bumblebee and the girl, he was forced to transform and the brown-haired girl flew out of him, crashing into the building opposite. The squishy inside me began screeching at me, banging and punching my door, making me slightly annoyed. "Be quiet, human!" I said harshly, attempting to get her to stop destroying my door.

"LET ME OUT, YOU SLAGGER!" she screamed, now kicking against my door. Oh, Primus, did this girl never quit? I decided that the only way I could get her to stop screeching and kicking me was to open that door so I did. In result the girl, getting momentum from her next kick, rolled onto the pavement and glared at me ferociously. I smirked, not that she could see it.

I began to transform but something told me to stay in my alt mode.

It was very strange after that. She began moving on her shoes with her ankles. It was not until then I noticed that her shoes and wheels installed in them. Hmm, interesting, wheels just like me and Sideswipe's. I did not just say that. Her wheels are primitive and basic compared to Sideswipe's and mine.

She skated towards Barricade, who was getting ready to shoot Bee again. Even Optimus was surprised at the femme's bravery and my leniency at letting her go. Optimus began to transform, wanting to help the human. However, it seemed like she could help herself just fine, pulling some delicate wiring out of Barricade and ripping them open. Energon leaked all over her, splattering onto her coverings and onto her face. Barricade yelled and cursed at her while Bumblebee used that moment when Barricade was distracted to shoot him with his cannons. After that, Barricade transformed back to his alt mode and drove away quickly. As Ironaft would say, Deceptipunk…

Oh frag oh frag…the femme was covered with energon. She was probably going to get poisoned and offline a minute later or something. We need her and her shard. Frag.
