Rafael Esquire ran for his life through the sewers. Today had started off so ordinary for him,just any other thursday. Nine hours of school, then playing with his now ruined RC car by the outlet pipe on his way home, then he just had to go and stick aroundan extra five minutes. Now it was the coolest, and frankly most horrifying day of his life. First he found out Jack was a spider robot thing and Sari was a flying orange robot, the blue motorbike they were on turned into a large blue robot and they were fighting purple car robots, now he was being chased by a red and a blue robot the size of grown men through the sewers. He made a split-second descision and turned right and ran towards the end of the tunnel. He heard gunfire behind him, odd puling gunfire, but gunfire none the less.
"Rafael, wait!" Somebody called, he ignored it, for all he knew, he'd found two waring types of terminators! As he ran into the light, he saw it, the blue robot from before was struggling against five of the purple robots and a yellow one was fighting off two of the purple ones at once.
"Whoa...HEY!" Rafael shouted at the purple robot. "Leave him alone!" The purple ones who were fighting the yellow one suddenly took aim at him. "...Please?"
Before there was any time to react, purple and blue bolts of energy struck it in the head, making it fall over with a loud metallic clank.
Rafael spun around and saw Sari and Jack. Both looking completely normal asides their palms. Jack had a purple orb in his and Sari had a blue one, it looked to be merged to their skin.
"Rafael, now is not a good time to play sightseeing." Jack cautionted as a massive green robot jumped over a dune and slammed into the purple ones. "Great...how am I supposed to explain this to mum?"
"Explain what?" Rafael shivered with fright. Jack sighed as he rubbed his eyes with his thumb and index finger, Sari on the other hand gave a look of uncertanty and embarrisment.
"Look Rafael, I can't tell you much but I can tell you I'm not entirely human,let's just leave it at that, please?" Jack asked, pleedingly.
"Yeah, you two should get going, Sari, you're playing escort." The blue robot explained. "And make sure no more Decepticons try to nab them."
"Well, you have fun with that." Jack stated as he did a mock sulute and began to walk off into the sewers. "Also, if you see Megatron, tell him the answer is still no, I'm not joining the Decepticons!" Rafael gave them all an odd look. He then turned to the yellow robot. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, just a few scratches." It answered using beeps and blips.
"Well, as long as you're not hurt too bad." Rafael smiled, leaving the others dumbfounded.
"Did he just understand bumblebee?" The green robot asked in a state of awe.
"Shouldn't I be able to?" Rafael asked.
"Well, considering that was cybertronian Basic, yeah." Sari said as she watched Rafael with curiosity. "Arcee, can we get a lift?"
"Bumblebee can take you, I'll check on that other one." Arcee answered Back before transforming and driving off.
By the time Jack had gotten back to his house, it was seven o'clock, meaning he'd barely gotten back in time for dinner. As he opened the door he found his adoptive mum June waiting for him.
"Jack, what happened?" She asked in a stern tone.
"Nothing mum." Jack told her.
"Really, then why do you smell like sewers and that blue stuff?" June asked in a serious tone as she crossed her arms. Jack huffed with agitation, he needed to take another shower when this was all done.
"Decepticons again." Jack answered bluntly. "and before you panic, I had help."
"O really, from who Jack? Who did you get involved?" June asked crossly.
"Mum, Autobots." Jack told her. "There's autobots on Earth, Sari...Sari's like me just...less spidery."
"Jack..." June sighed.
"No,mum really, there area autobots on earth!" Jack insisted to her. There was a knock at the door. "Here's one now."
June eyed him suspiciously before she opened the door, in the driveway was a blue motorbike and a helmeted driver, a woman in a one peace suit was at the door. "Jack, who's this?"
"My name's sadie." She answered. "You're Jack's mother, right?"
"Yes, that's right." June answered warily as Jack walked up behind her.
"It's Arcee, right?" Jack asked,then he saw the motorbike. "Yeah, so, holoform then?"
"Holoform, I take it your mother is the former decepticon then?" Arcee asked as she used her holoform to look in June's direction.
"No, I'm not an robot thingy." June explained defencively.
"Uh,look, if this is about the thing by the offramp, I'm so, so sorry for getting in the way." Jack explained.
"Don't be." Arcee told him curtly. "We kinda need to have a word with you and your mother."
"I..I don't know my real mum." Jack explained. "But she does."
"She called herself Airachnid, she just wanted Jack to be safe, that's all I know of her." June explained.
arcee's holoform mimiced a sigh. "Fine, look, both of you need to come with me, alright?"
"How do we know you're not one of these decepticons?" June asked warily.
"If I was, you'd be dead by now." Arcee's holofrom told june with a flat tone.
"Mum, she's an autobot, we'll be fine." Jack told her. "Er..Arcee, will Rafael be safe?"
"He is, we've got Bumblebee pulling curbside duty outside his house." Arcee's holoform explained. "We need to go now before Ratchet blows a gasket at me for taking so long."
"Well, if we must." June answered uncertiranly. "Jack, I'm trusting your choice here, alright?"
"Mum,we'll be fine." Jack told her. "Just, don't get the green one mad, he did a number one the cons."
"Noted." June gulped. "Just give me a fewminutes to get ready."
