YAAY! I got hits! ... OMG! I got Reviews! WEEE! Thank you so much to everyone who commented or took time to read thus far - yeah I know your all thinking... 'Wow.. Excited much?' But seeing as this is the first fan fiction I've had the nerve to make public. I was a bit hesitant about weather it was good enough and still am…. I've never really shown my work to others except a few close friends... and their badgering for me to post it finally got to me… Anyway … this is the movie verse. But I'm mixing and matching the looks of some characters from different series ... Just cause I like the look of one version better over another... I may also be giving a few of them different alt modes to update them a bit. If all this gets confusing please let me know and I'll try to clear it up ASAP!

Well this popped into my head… quite literally... I would be doing something and suddenly Optimus would be commenting... I'd have this mental conversation. o.o dose that make me crazy? I've been a Transfan forever. When I heard about the movie I spazzed and was literally squealing when I heard Optimus' voice…

Optimus: cough still do.. -Every- time.

MiniMedic: SQUEE! pounce Owww…

Optimus: looks at me knocked out RATCHETT!

Ratchett: Slag! AGAIN! picks me up muttering heading for the medbay

Chapter 2

Jazz ta Prime


Prime here

Ah'm in good o'l Louisiana... Dang this place is a mess.. After that little whirlwind blew through.. But their doing a bang up job piece'n it back ta'gether.


Indeed.. Many of the residents suffered greatly. I will admit I find my-self amazed time and again at humanity's perseverance and resilience. Your condition?


Right as rain Boss man! Though I could use ah cube or two'o energon and a nice recharge.


As could I my friend...
My systems rumbled in agreement it had been a good 48 hours drive from Nevada to the east... and I hadn't recharged in eight earth days. Granted that wasn't long for us... But after first arriving here we had decided it would be better to try and get accustomed to a more Earth friendly schedule. Recharging every two days or just a little every night, keeping alert instead of recharging for what would be a lengthy amount of time on our new home.

I avoided a would be accident almost slamming to a stop to avoid a blue pickup who'd cut me off.. What was it with people in this state not knowing how to drive?.. Did they not study the laws required? Sighing I switched lanes opening a com link to all of my mechs. Prime here... Report Condition and location.

Bumblebee reporting in sir... Hide, Lennox, Sam and I are about 7 clicks from New York. Our condition is well... The yellow youngling sounded amused.

Sorry Prime we'd be there already if we didn' have ta stop every few breems. Hide sounded irritated

'Hmmm probably irritated for the same reason Bumblebee sounds amused' I thought chuckling lightly. Feisty youngling, a trigger-happy weapons specialist, throw a few humans into the mix and you have a very interesting road trip.

Primus... The organics need so much slagg'n maintenance. They're as bad as sparklings. My weapons specialist grumbled. Oww! Slagg'n glitch Lennox what was that for!? Don't make me shoot you… A few moments later the gruff mech snorted. Lennox would like it known he is not a sprarkling…. There happy now human? Good… now don't ever kick me there again… then mumbled. How ever sparkling like his tendencies may be.

Dude I told ya I can't frick'n help it if I gota pee! Or eat... Or sleep! Though Lennox and I've been doing most of the eating and sleeping in Bee or you. So ya cant really complain bout that… Sam's voice came though Bees com link sounding a bit miffed.

Ratchett here... Our condition is well... As well as I can be with the Twins. The medic grumbled slightly. Our position currently is the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee we will be separating shortly. Ironhide we aren't in That much of a hurry …and it is perfectly acceptable and normal for humans to do such actions every few breems.. Not allowing them to do so would cause harm not to mention embarrassing accidents. Would you want our human friends malfunctioning because of your selfish actions? Ratchett's lecture on our friend's behalf cut though the lines and I would have smiled if I could have at the black mechs response.

Ah.. ya know I wouldn't ever want'a hurt'em medic.. Ironhide replied his tone somewhat softer. Annabelle' d cry…and Sara'd off line me… even if she's asked me ta shoot e'm on more than one occasion. Ironhides rumbling laughter filled the link. What was it ya did Lennox.. You forgot someth'n… your anniversary. He sounded highly amused at the memory.

Ohh... Ouch man... ya forgot your anniversary... I did that back when Makayla and I were dating... I though she was going to kill me. Bee literally picked me up cause of the hostile signs she was giving off. Sam commented through Bumblebee's link.


Now Sam...
Bumblebee scolded. How was I suppose to know you two weren't a threat to one another... The energies you were both emitting were tense, hostile and all together not pleasant... Having researched the mating habits other creatures on this planet. Showing hostility in those situations often ended in serious injury or termination of one of the parties involved.


The boy sighed and half laughed at his guardian. Bee ... My ex-girlfriend is not a black widow ... And the thought of you watching animal porn is just creepy...


Dude that is creepy...
Sideswipe commented teasingly. Bee you're such a perve...


Gee... Wonder where he learned
that from... Sunstreaker laughed along with his twin.

I am not! Bumblebee protested as Sam and the twins cackled. You two have no room to talk… I'm only watching out for Sam and researching other creatures on this planet is crucial to that... Did you know a bite from a certain spider... a creature two millimeters big can terminate him? Or snakebite could terminate him if he doesn't receive the appropriate medical attention in a timely manner... Not to mention the various illnesses just floating in the air… he can offline from lack of recharge or proper fuel… Primus too much radiation can kill him... But not enough of a certain kind can make him malfunction…

Ok ok slag... Bee clam down.. Don't blow a gasket. We know you're just looking out for 'em. Sideswipe chuckled.

I 'cleared my throat' or vocal processor, a human custom we had learned to get someone's attention... Amazingly it worked though the action accidentally scared the poor motorcyclist beside me half out of his processor. I am about 9-clicks from my location of the Heartsfield Airport in Georgia. I want everyone to keep a your sensors open and be careful.. The fragment of Decepticon transmission we intercepted said they would be attacking somewhere along the eastern US boarder within the next few earth days. Do not engage the enemy unless it is absolutely necessary... And I mean it... If you hear anything, get any sign of Decepticon activity you are to report it imminently. We will all convene at your location then plan the best defense from that point. Compute? My spark nearly burst with pride as a chorus of yes sirs followed my question.

Got ya Big guy.. But what I don't understand is why we all split up.. I mean wouldn't it be safer if we all stuck together? Sam questioned ingenuously over Bumblebee's com. what I would give to be so young and innocent again.

Because Sam we don't know where they will strike... So we have opted to cover all our bases so to speak. Bumblebee answered his young charge. New York is an important hub of this nation not to mention highly populated... While New Orleans is still a sore spot… and Washington DC for obvious reasons.

Ohh.. And Heartsfield is one of the major airports in the world.. The boy reasoned.

Correct.. Not ta mention an elite military training facility is located in South Georgia as well…Ironhide commented.

But the Smokey mountains.. And no offence but.. Why are the Sunstreaker and Sides the ones going to the capital? Samuel questioned after a brief silence.

Why the two idiots are going to the capital of this nation... as imprudent as they are, these two slaggers are some of the best fighters in our army… and don't puff up your ego's you sons of glitch's… You don't have half a processor between the two of you. Ratchett growled a moment before continuing. As for the Smokey Mountains... Nuclear weapons from Earths cold war were stored here in bunkers… after a treaty was formed and humans realized the dangers of nuclear power..… As well as various dangerous other chemicals... Although they are not that dangerous to mechs it would be extremely damaging to the ecosystem and inhabitants such as yourself. Ratchett answered the youngling patiently.

Yeah and nuclear radiation would just open up a whole new batch of problems for humans … besides death, a painful one for thousands… radiation poisoning, birth defects for generations to come… polluted recourses….Sideswipe commented seriously.The conversation halted in a shocked silence.

Who the slag are you and where the pit is sideswipe? The medic questioned astonished.

What?! I'm the smart one of the two of us remember? The red mech exclaimed defensively.

And I'm the good-looking one! Sunstreaker chirped smugly.

Are not.. I could hear Sideswipe frown. 'Oh sweet Primus here they go'.

Are too!

Are not!

Oh for the love of Primus. Ratchett groaned in protest.

Are too..

Are not not not!

Are too too too!

Are not!

Are too you pit fragg'n son of a glitch!

Are not! And if I am you are too fragger!

SHUT UP! Or I swear to Primus I'll wield you both together and blow you up myself! The medic bellowed heatedly ending the foolish bickering. Primus Optimus... What have I done to deserve such punishment... To be stuck with these slagg'n idiots.. I mean I know you hate your routine checkups but slag.

Punishment my friend? What ever are you talking about? I chuckled turning onto a less populated side road. I have the utmost faith you could handle them. I'm dong you a favor. I purred teasingly... If it had been Ironhide you'd end up with all three of them in your medbay by daybreak... and Jazz... well you know the trouble the three of them can get into… Jazz snickered. Bumblebee and Sam surely don't need the twins influencing them...

Very funny Prime.. Ratchett muttered acidly.. slagg'n glitch you just have to be right don't you..

Why Ratchett you know I'm only doing what's best for the team. I chuckled… I could allow myself a little fun every now and again couldn't I? But there was a time and place for everything. Shifting to a more serious state I addressed my soldiers. All right team… I suggest we all get a decent recharge for the night after scouting and securing your positions. I doubt the Decpticons will make their move just yet. We can all head to our posts in the morning. Stay safe my friends. Prime out.

I tiredly pulled into a small tucking station... having learned long ago that I could recharge safely in such places without rising suspicion. Sighing and easing back into my shocks I started shutting down my systems for a blissful recharge.

My sensors indicated the approach of a human... resisting the urge to groan in protest I fully came back online. Watching curiously as a small femme approached me hesitantly. Humans didn't take much interest in me except the occasional 'trucker' as they were called or unless I was in an area unnatural for my alt form. "Hello handsome." Her voice was soft and slightly high-pitched but not unpleasantly so. She approached me tentatively studying my form. Resisting the urge to shift uncomfortably under her intense gaze I decided to return the favor.

The femme was small of stature and frame dressed in black and navy blue external coverings... a jacket and jeans as they were called on the web. Waist length auburn hair was tied back from her slightly long oval face and almond shaped grayish blue optics. Something was different… on closer inspection I noticed the femme's right optic malfunctioned, shifting in an odd direction for a moment before settling back to follow the slightly brighter one. My sensors being not quite as detailed as Ratchett's only showed that the optic was damaged but not the cause. Reaching out a small long fingered hand the femme lightly touched my carcass, tracing the flame design from the 'headlight' to the door. Had I not seen the movement I doubt I would have felt it. The touch was light but steady... no this femme was definitely not a 'trucker'.

My sensors picked up another human close by as I adjusted them to the fading light. The femme wasn't aware of the other. Tall and broad the dark skinned brawny male came to stand calmly by the truck beside me leaning heedlessly against it watching the femme with a fond expression, well his body language wasn't threatening at least.

"Looks like someone's in love" the deep warm voiced man laughed startling the girl. In one fluid motion the femme turned knees half bent as if expecting an attack then relaxed on recognizing the man

"Can you blame me?" The girls soft voice replied her smile reminding me of Sideswipe after getting caught in a prank.

"Some piece of work." The man commented coming up to stand beside her placing a hand firmly my armor... "You know they say the truck picks the person... Not the other way around."

"Really..." the girl vaguely smiled admiring my paint job... 'Primus Sunstreaker would be jealous' I thought amused. But now I could perceive just why the yellow mech was so obsessive about his paint job… the attention was quite flattering.

"He is a beauty isn't he…lets go... So we can get you home at a decent hour." A wiry tall male shook me from my thoughts as he jumped up opening my door. "Good thing the keys are in the ignition. We looked all over for a set in the office." Turning my 'key' I could feel his rough manner but the male knew what he was doing. Apparently I had been mistaken for a company truck. I mentally sighed... Was I going to get any recharge at all? Hoping to discourage the human I refused to start my systems. "Must be cold start," he growled. As Jazz would often comment 'persistent little bug'ers aren't they!'

My attention turned to the small femme who had moved to my right standing at the 'passenger' side with the taller dark skinned male. Tracing my Autobot insignia with a gentle touch she whispered and I was surprised that her words were directed at me. " We've got one last delivery to make. Mind helping us out a bit?" the femme smiled. "What'd ya say big guy?"

Taking in my surroundings I noticed that there was no trailer near... and the male had said something that implied they would be finished soon. Looking down at the girl and mentally sighing I started my systems.

The female yelped startled, smiling she was lifted by her friend into my passenger seat. The males gentle manner betraying ones first impression, very much reminding me of Ironhide.

"You be careful now." The dark male advised as the femme' shut my door and buckled herself in.

"Thanks big guy." She whispered happily patting the dashboard with a light hand.

'Your welcome little one.' I mentally smiled allowing her companion to guide me onto the road. The sunset and night fell as we headed on our way. I directed my sensors onto the humans.

The male though coarse with my controls was firm and steady. Yawning the femme's systems were slowly starting to enter recharge however much she was fighting it. I chuckled being reminded of a very young Bumblebee and turned my heating systems up slightly. Responding almost immediately she turned sideways propping her back against my side paneling and loosening the safety belt. Soft hair and skin brushed against my sensitive interior as she curled her head into my warm leather dozing peacefully. 'Works every time'.

A few moments later we turned onto a more dangerous road... curvy and small, having a sharp drop to my left and a rock wall to the right... The temperature and humidity changed quickly my readings indicating it was about to rain. This was not a road I would like to traverse under such conditions with delicate cargo. Shifting I gently tightened the safety harness around the girl. 'My apologies little one.' I thought as she grumbled in protest.

"What'd you tighten my seat belt for..?" she frowned drowsily at her companion.

"I didn't. It must have slipped while you were asleep." He replied as she yawned her systems staring to enter recharge once again. Rain fell against my armor plating as the male reached over tuning on the radio, heavy metal blasted through my speakers. I mentally frowned... What was he thinking? The femme obviously needed recharge. Did he not realize this type of music would hinder it? 'Hmmm... What would be appropriate...' amused I switched through the airwaves to a light classical station though the action had the opposite effect intended.

Sitting up the femme stared at her companion as if he had grown two heads… "Hu... Weird." The male commented reaching over and switching the station back. He smiled happily screaming along with the music.

"I knew it was too good to be true." The female sighed. Then I changed the station back to classical. "Hm?" The male immediately switched stations and again I countered as the femme, sitting up staring at the radio, watched wide-eyed as I switched it back. Her companion snorted in protest.

Click rock… click classical... click rock… click classical. "What the hell!" he yelled in frustration as I resisted the urge to snicker... No wonder Bumblebee had so much fun with this.

"I knew I liked you..." the girl grinned whispering. "I like Bach " she informed the male.

"Well I don't," he grumbled. "Damn thing must be busted." I winced as he slammed his fist into my sensitive insides

"Hey... Hitting isn't going to fix it and you should probably keep your eyes on the road." The human femme advised calmly coming to my defense. Rain came down harder as we approached a bright yellow SUV in front of us, my sensors indicating several humans inside.

"I don't like these roads..." the male cursed under his breath reducing our speed. I whole sparkingly agreed. . Just then my sensors spiked in warning a Decepticon was approaching and fast. I barely had time to brace myself, as I was rammed form behind.

Long time no see old man! A deep menacing voice crowed over my com. My spark skipped a beat...Motormaster…haha it's been a while Prime.. what a nice surprise... The first mech I get to trash on this pathetic little mud ball is you... He practically purred in sadistic delight. My sensors automatically honed in on him. Motormaster's alt form was a newer model simi with full trailer. Slag it this was not good. I was snapped out of my thoughts as I heard the humans conversing worriedly. The femme yelped as I was rammed again, slamming on the brakes I narrowly missed the vehicle in front of me. Slag that hurt…

"Shit! They're doing it on purpose!" the male exclaimed gripping my steering wheel tighter.

"What?! Why?!" I heard the girl panic wincing as her nails pierced my interior. Turning my scans on them briefly they were frightened but unharmed. I couldn't transform with the humans inside… and I couldn't eject them on such a narrow path without fear of their getting crushed, knowing Motormaster he'd do so out of spite alone. Slamming into me the Deception's taunting was getting annoying.

I was distracted briefly as the femme tried to unbuckle her safety belt and quickly locked it in place. It was hard enough trying to come up with a plan under such conditions, while under attack, without her fidgeting. What's the matter old man? Too rusty to play? Motormaster snickered and I growled in response.

What's the matter with me... Don't you mean - you- Decepticon? Don't have the lug nuts to face me in a fair fight? I countered trying to buy time as I sent out a distress signal over a privet link. This seemed to amuse him more

Why fight fair when playing dirty is so much fun! Motormaster sneered ramming into me again. Movement inside startled me as the femme was trying to wiggle out of her seat belt.

'Slag it youngling!' I mentally reproached as I tightened it gently but firmly holding her in place.

"What the hell?!" she panicked as we were hit again. This time I couldn't avoid crashing into the small vehicle in front of us. My reflexes alone saved them as I turned sharply tumbling off the cliff.

Falling I could transform and save myself the damage... But I couldn't risk the lives of the innocents. Hitting the side of the rock wall I groaned as metal alloy ripped and dented… The girl wiser than her companion curled into a ball making it easier for me to cushion her impact. Tumbling in darkness I couldn't focus but managed to shift my weight so I was right side up... Then I landed. My windshield shattered as pain shot though my body and I off-lined.

TBC

AN hehe the thought of Sunstreaker and Sideswipe terrorizing the poor Secret service agents made me crack up.. I might do an off shoot of the twins little misadventures

Thanks for reading! Reviews appreciated

Much love
