Cassie: Hello there. Chapter 2 of Book 2 is just below...go on...Stop looking at me!

*Cassie's POV*

I sat on the large examination table with my legs hanging off the side. I winced as Ratchet accidentally jerked my arm. "Sorry," he apologized.

"It's alright...are you almost done cause Bee looks kinda annoyed that it's taking so long," I replied.

"Well...I'm not annoyed I'm just bored," Bee answered cracking a smile.

"Go bother Prowl or Bulkhead kid. This will take a little time since that brute Megatron basically destroyed the joint," Ratchet replied and continued working.

"Will you be able to repair it," I asked.

"Of course! I'm the 'bot who made ya so I should be able to fix ya," he replied.

"Bee go ahead. I'll meet you on the bridge," I sighed. He nodded and left as I closed my eyes and dozed off.

~A WHILE LATER~

I woke up in my room. I guess that we landed and I didn't hear it. I missed the old base in Jasper, Nevada a lot actually. I heard voices coming from the lobby area but they were not the voices of my fellow Autobots. I got up and walked over to the main lobby and saw...humans...with guns...pointed at me? I was a little taken aback. "Well...seems that the humans got more hostile since the last time," I sighed. I didn't notice a soldier load his gun and take a shot at me successfully landing a hit on my neck, "ow." I pulled the bullet out and starred at its small needle. "What was that fo-," I started to say but my legs gave out and I fell to the ground. What was in that bullet? Bumblebee yelled something and the next thing I know I'm being loaded onto a helicopter. What in the world is going on and why does everyone feel the need to shoot at me?!

~MEANWHILE~

(Bumblebee's POV)

"Optimus! We have a problem," I yelled as I saw the helicopter take off. I ran after it and just missed the runner. Optimus walked up to me.

"What is it Bumblebee," he asked.

"They took her. The humans took Cassie," I replied.

"Then we must explain to them that she means no harm and is one of us," he replied as he heard footsteps. "I believe that the human representative is here," He said turning to face the small organic.

"Yes I am," replied a peeved Agent Fowler.

"I am Optimus Prime. This is Bumblebee and we have come to this planet as refugees. Your kind have just abducted one of our own. If you ask your leader to kindly release Bk-201 ,or as she goes by now, Cassie. Then we will be forever grateful," Optimus explained.

Fowler pondered for a moment, "well I'll try but I can't give any promises. It's a lot harder than you think to get in contact with the President but I'll try."

"I'll go get her back myself," I blurted out.

"No. We must let this planet's inhabitants do this. We want them to trust us and also we don't want to harm the humans," Prime responded.

"I will also tell the President that you all come in peace," Fowler replied as he left.

I started to freak out, "Prime what if they don't release her?!"

"They must. We still have a peace treaty with this planet. She was released from Earth's ownership until they needed her to protect them. As I see it, the Decepticons will also follow her to Earth and this planet will be in danger as well. They will see that we can help protect them along with Cassie," he replied wisely. I just hope that she is okay and they don't do anything to her.

~MEANWHILE~

(No one's POV)

Cassie lay on a small bed in the Sector 7 headquarters that lies within the Hoover Dam. The soldiers would occasionally peak in. There were many whispers around about her and why she was with the aliens but the most puzzling part was why she had a bandage on her arm. Some people heard that it was metal others heard otherwise. The sector had the right to search a person if there was anything suspicious going on. So they decided to do an x-ray. They got a female nurse to undress the girl and slip her into a gown. She was taken to a room and the x-rays were taken. When the scientists looked at the x-rays they were stunned. There were no bones...just metal and they couldn't make out the rest. They made a decision that she was not human and more tests were to be conducted.

For the next several days, scientists studied her, took blood, and took more x-rays and MRI's. Several times the girl woke up and transformed but was shortly put back to sleep. They got orders to release her several times by the President himself, but each time they ignored. The scientists had a girl who was almost all robot and could...transform. It was amazing! They didn't know why her files were classified so only the President could see them. All day they had been trying to hack the network but failed. They were just about to give up when an idea came to them. They could use her as a bargaining chip to get more information. An alarm started sounding when they heard a loud explosion. They ran to Cassie's room and saw that she had broken out. They looked on the monitor and saw that she had already managed to get out of the base and was flying away. "Should we go after her, sir," a soldier asked.

"No...I have a feeling that we will be seeing her again soon," the Agent Simmons, the leader of the girls case, added. They watched the monitor as she flew away.
