A/N Here's the next chapter, dedicated to FirstWizardAllanon for being the first to favorite this story! Um...in honor of FirstWizardAllanon, why don't we have Optimus Prime do the disclaimer?

Optimus: CarlieHitachiin owns nothing but the story.

Ch. 4- Keep Holding On

The next day, Sari woke up to see a tanned woman with dark brown hair smiling at her. "Hey, sleepy-head."

Sari yawned. "How long was I asleep?"

"About 20 hours." laughed Mikaela. "Are you hungry?"

Sari nodded. "I'm Sari."

"I'm Mikaela." said Mikaela. "My husband is Sam."

They went to the mess hall, where they both grabbed some food and sat down at a table. "So, tell me about your world." Mikaela said.

"Well, it's a lot like this world." said Sari. "I live in Detroit, with my Autobot friends."

"What about your parents?" asked Mikaela.

"Well, Dad passed away two years ago." said Sari. "And I never had a mom, so the Autobots took me in. It wasn't the first time I had lived with them."

Sari went on to explain her adventures to Mikaela, which took them a long time, but Mikaela enjoyed every second of it.

"Bumblebee, he's my best friend. We get into some crazy trouble. Like this one time, he dared me to use the Key and change Bulkhead and Prowl's voices to sound like little kids. It was so funny. But they got really mad. Ratchet was pounding dents out of Bee for a week."

Mikaela laughed along with Sari, and she loved how Sari's eyes sparkled when she talked about her friends. She already felt like she had known the girl all her life. "And then there was this one time, when Bumblebee and Optimus tried to buy me an ice cream, or when we all went to Starbucks..."

The girls laughed together, and Mikaela smiled. "You know, one of the Autobots lives with me and Sam."

"Oh?" asked Sari. "Which one?"

"Bumblebee." said Mikaela. "And Sam and I were talking last night. How would you like to come and live with us while they work on getting you home?"

Sari's eyes widened. "You'd let me live with you?"

Mikaela smiled. "Of course! We'd love it."

Sari grinned. "I'd like that."

Mikaela stood up. "Then why don't we go on home, Sari?"

She grabbed her phone out of her pocket, and dialed Sam's number. "Hey, babe. Let's take Sari home."

Sari tuned out the rest of the phone conversation, thinking about her Autobots. Bee, where are you? she thought desperately.

So far away
I wish you were here
Before it's too late, this could all disappear
Before the doors close
And it comes to an end
With you by my side I will fight and defend
I'll fight and defend
Yeah, yeah
