Dear Book,

Ok things are starting to get weird, or, I'm just going crazy. I'm pretty sure it isn't the latter. Well I guess that it all could just be my imagination.

First, Sam acts weird and distracted. Then his car seems to move on its own. Now there are these 2 guys that are supposed to be working with my dad. Will Lennox and Ian Howard. Those 2 seemed like regular military men but then after they left, it got strange. They went right to Sam's house and stayed there for a while.

Does Sam know those two? What the heck is going on in this town? I think that those guys might be hiding something from me. I gonna get to the bottom of this.

But not right now. Tonight is the Meteor Shower. I am sooooo excited. It is going to be amazing. The shower will be spectacular. The meteors are flying right over Tranquility so we will have front row seats. The weather has been forecast to be clear, not a cloud in the sky.

Today, I am going to be meeting Sam's girlfriend, Mikaela. I want to meet her and I might get another friend out of this. I just wonder if she will act strange like Sam is.

So, Sam, Mikaela, Ty and I will be watching the shower up on the lookout. Sam said that it is a few miles outside of town so we have to drive there. Sam and Mikaela are driving up in his Camaro. Dad is letting us borrow the family jeep, which I get to drive. Yeah.

Well time to go see Sam. I slept in and I was supposed to meet Sam at 11:00 am and it is now 2:14 pm so I gotta go.

Type up here later.

Koda

Stretching out her arms, up over her head, Koda yawned as she finished up on her laptop. She got up out of her chair, making sure she signed off on her computer. She opened her bedroom door and headed off down the stairs. When she go to the bottom. Ty was in the living room playing Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. Ty had on his basic outfit of a blue t-shirt, jeans and socks.

"Good Morning, sleepyhead. Ha ha, or should I say Good Afternoon. You sure slept in late." Ty paused his game and turned around to face Koda. He notice that she seemed to be ready to head out. She was wearing cut off jeans, a black muscle shirt and a red hoddie, unzipped.

"Hey Ty. I may have slept in but I am fully awake. I'm gonna be out for a few hours."

"Let me guess, to hang with Sam again."

"Yeah, so?"

"He's been waiting outside for about an hour now."

"What? Oh man I have to go." Koda went to the front door and put on her black running shoes. She reached for the doorknob when she stopped, suddenly remembering something. "Ty, don't forget about tonight and I'm driving!"

Ty instantly got up off the couch and gave Koda funny look. "Hey, I thought I was driving. I was the one who was providing the jeep. I asked Dad if we could use it."

"Yeah but Dad said that it would give me more experience if I drove. So bottom line, I'm driving."

"Fine, but only if you get back on time. 7:45pm sharp. Any later and I get to drive."

"Fine. But I won't be late."

Koda gave a sigh and headed out the door. Outside she saw Sam with his Camaro parked on the road, and next to him was a girl with long black hair. She was wearing a white tank top with red short shorts and black gladiator sandals. "Hmmm, I guess that must be Sam's girlfriend, Mikaela. She looks Hot. How does a guy like him get a girl like that? Well I shouldn't really make him wait that long." Koda walked up to Sam and the girl. "Hey Sam. Sorry to keep you waiting."

Sam looked up from his conversation and turned to see Koda. "That's alright Koda. Anyways I would like you to meet Mikaela Banes. Mikaela, this is Dakoda Ray, She just moved in last week. She also has an interest in cars." Koda and Mikaela shook hands with each other.

"It's nice to finally meet you Mikaela, Sam has told me a lot about you. And call me Koda."

"Yeah nice to meet you too Koda." Mikaela gave a bit of a look that could kill someone. Sam glanced at her and the look was wiped off her face and she gave him a little smile. "Sam told me about you. And will not stop mentioning that you like cars. Seems like he's trying to set us up to be friends."

Koda was a bit nervous after the look that Mikaela had given her but she shook it off. "Maybe, but I do like cars, I mostly prefer trucks, unless the car is a sweet sports car, or fancy, or fast, like a corvette or Sam's Camaro. Which I must say again Sam, is a SWEET ride."

Mikaela gave her a smug look and smiled. She walked up to Sam and draped her arms around his shoulder. "Well, I like Sam's fast ride." She wrapped an arm around his neck and gave him a peck on the cheek.

Sam thought that they things seemed a little tense between the girls so he stepped in. "Well guys, maybe we should head out. Koda, we wanted to show you the spot that we picked out to watch the meteor shower." Sam suggested, but Koda noticed that Sam seemed a little unsure of things, but she ignored it. So they hopped into the Camaro, Koda sitting in the back seat, and they headed out. While they were driving, Koda noticed that Sam seemed a little uneasy and uncomfortable. It also seemed that the car had a feeling of being uncomfortable around her.

"Sam, How long have you and Mikaela been going out? And how did you guys end up going out? I don't mean to impose or anything."

Mikaela turned around in her seat and gave Koda a sneer look. Sam saw that there was some friction starting between the two so he began to speed up the car. Sam was trying to think of a way to break the ice between the two girls, he couldn't think of anything. Koda noticed that Sam was looking funny. "Sam, are you ok? You seem a little pale."

"Uh, no, I'm fine. I, uh, was just wondering, if, uh, you were going to like the look out." Mikaela butted into the conversation. "That is where Sam made his first move on me. It's our little place that just we go to." Sam leaned over and whispered to Mikaela. "Mikaela, what are you doing? Come on, be nice to her." Mikaela gave Sam a pout and then apologized to Sam. Sam then noticed that they were making their way up the hill towards the lookout. "Hey Koda, we're almost to the spot, it's just up ahead."

"Ok Sam." Koda looked out the window and saw the large cliff that was overlooking all of Tranquility. "Wow, this is amazing!" She then glanced over at Sam ad Mikaela and they both looked at the smile on her face. "What? I just think that it's an awesome place to watch the shower." Mikaela looked over at Koda and gave her a look of warning to not butt in on her and Sam. Sam sped up the hill and parked the car on the hilltop. They all got out of the car and Mikaela walked over to Sam. "Hey Sam, do you mind if I could talk to Koda alone? Just for a minute?" Sam looked at Mikaela, guessing what Mikaela was going to say to Koda. "Ok, but be nice. Don't saying anything bad to her." Mikaela nodded. "Ok, I won't."

Then Mikaela walked over to Koda while Sam leaned into the car and began to chat with Bumblebee. "Hey Bee, I know that there is some friction between the 2 girls but I am not too sure what to do about it." Then a song came out of the radio. "Don't worry, be happy." "Ha ha, very funny Bee." Sam then glanced over at the girls and lowered his head down so that neither would hear what he said. " Look, Bee, I also have another concern. I haven't told Mikaela about what Ironhide and Lennox came to talk to us about last night." The radio stayed silent. "I know that you are a little nervous around Koda, but I don't believe that she has anything to do with the 'Cons. So just relax Bee. If she did, I don't think she would have a family with her. Ironhide never mentioned any suspicion of her family so that means that there is something else going on." Out of the radio came an unknown sound clip of a man and then a second one followed, that of a woman. "Don't worry about the past, focus on the future. Friends stay together and trust each other. Are you people friends?" Sam smiled at that response. "Yeah Bee, your right. She is my friend, so I should trust her." Sam then watched the two girls talk.

Mikaela had walked over to Koda to confront her about Sam and the discussion had gotten pretty heated. Mikaela was accusing Koda of a bunch of things ad Koda just stood her ground. "Look, just stay away from Sam. It's that simple." Koda was offended but didn't back down. "Hey, I have no interest in Sam, we're just friends."

"Well it doesn't look that way! I've seen you look at him and the way you act around him!"

"Yeah, well I act that way because I am just getting to know him. I act nervous when I get to know people. I'm just shy, that's all."

"I don't believe it."

"For the last time, We're just friends! I'm sorry if you feel like I'm trying to take him away from you but that's just not the case. Believe me, I would never do that to someone, I'm just not that kind of person. Come on. If you get to know me then you would see that. Please?"

Then Koda and Mikaela heard an un familiar country song from the car radio. "Can't we all just get along? If we don't, then that would be wrong. Come one, come all, just get along." Mikaela looked at the car and Sam and then back to Koda who had a solemn look on her face. Mikaela then looked down towards the ground and said something that surprise Koda. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to say what I did. I just get jealous of people sometimes. Can you forgive me?" Mikaela looked at Koda showing that she was truly sorry. "Ok, I forgive you. And trust me, I think same is cute but he's not my type. I'm more into the cool, artistic type, and someone that can put up a good fight and likes weapons. I hang out with Sam a lot because he is the only friend I have out here." Mikaela gave a smile and giggled a bit. " Yeah well, maybe you can have another friend now?" Koda then smiled at that statement. "Yeah, I'd really like that. Friends?" "Friends." The two shook hands and then Mikaela got a shock through her hand.

Sam walked over, hearing that last part of the girls' conversation. "Well, looks like we're all made up. Are you two ok?" The girls both looked at Sam and Koda spoke up. "Hey Sam, were you eavesdropping on our conversation? That is just wrong." Mikaela then came into the conversation. "Yeah Sam, men aren't suppose to listen to girl talk." Then the two girls looked at each other and started to laugh. "Mikaela, I think Sam's right, we will make good friends." Then all three of them walked out to the edge of the cliff, sat down and enjoyed the view.

As it began to get late, The group got up and were ready to leave. Sam went to the driver side to start the car and then encountered a problem. "Uh, guys? We got a problem. The car won't start." Mikaela got up and walked over to Sam. Koda got up to follow her but was then stopped. "Koda, I think I know what the problem is but I need to talk to Sam about it. So you just wait there, ok?" "Koda nodded. "Ok."

Mikaela brought Sam over to the side of the car. "Sam, are you and Bumblebee trying to pull something, or is this the real deal?" Sam looked at Mikaela and then at Bee. "Mikaela, this is definitely not on purpose. I'm not sure what's wrong." All of a sudden, Sam's cell started to vibrate and he took it out. It was a text message from Bumblebee. "Energon energy levels are low. My reserves will be enough to get back, but I need an energy boost to start up." Sam just looked at the text, not believing that he forgot to refill Bee's energon. He leaned over and whispered to Mikaela. "We need an energy boost but I don't know from where. Do you have any idea?" Mikaela wasn't too sure. "I could call someone from the shop to come give us a boost but I don't know if it will work."

Koda was curious about what the problem was and decided to investigate. She walked over to Sam and Mikaela and tried to give her input. "Hey, do you know the problem? If not, do you mind if I take a look?" Sam was a little worried if Koda looked under the hood. "Um, no. You don't need to take a look. The problem is that the car is just low on power. We just need a boost. Mikaela was just going to call someone to come help." Koda looked at Sam, not totally believing what he was saying. "Well, I think I might have a way to restart it. If I can, you might want to stand back." Sam and Mikaela just looked at Koda. "What do you mean?" Koda was just thinking to herself, wondering if she should really do what she was about to do. 'Ok, should I really do this? What if it doesn't work, or what if thy think I'm a freak? Well I am able to control my power most of the time and I can send out a large burst when I touch electronic devices. Well, I'll just give it a try.' Koda walked up to the hood of the car. "Sam, Mikaela, just promise me that you won't freak at this but I kind of have a special power. I can try to start the engine with it. So for safety, back away from the car."

Sam was now doubting what he had told Bee earlier. If Koda had this 'special power', he wondered if it could have something to do with what Ironhide had warned him about. He was also worried because he hadn't told Mikaela. Sam then brought the safety of Mikaela to the front of his mind. He backed away from the Camaro with Mikaela while Koda did what she planned to do.

Koda set her hands on the hood of the car and then sent an electric pulse through the entire body of the car. There was a pulse of energy that momentarily hung in the air and then disappeared. There was tense silence for a few seconds. Sam and Mikaela just looked at Koda, both with worried looks on their faces. Koda looked at them, her eyes glowing red for a brief second and then the glow faded. All three were scared and surprised a moment later when they heard the roar of the engine start up. A bit of relief flew over Sam as he stood there holding Mikaela in his arms. They both walked over to Koda and looked at her with shocked expressions on their faces. Sam was first to speak. "What is the world was that?" Koda laughed a bit at his reaction. "I told you that I have a special power. I can control electrical currents from my body, and I can also amplify them."

Sam and Mikaela were both just surprised. They then all just began to laugh. Koda then looked at her watch and notified Sam and Mikaela of the time. They all then got in the car and left the hilltop to return to town. The ride back to town was a lot less tense than the ride there. "So Sam, Were going to meet up on the hill at 8:30pm right?" Sam looked over to Koda. "Yeah and your going to bring your brother Ty right?" Koda nodded and then saw that they had arrived back into their neighbourhood. Sam stopped at Koda's house. Koa got out and they said goodbye and then Sam headed back to his house down the street.

At Sam's house, they went to his backyard and got out of the Camaro. Bumblebee transformed and then sat down in the yard with Sam and Mikaela. Sam wanted to tell Mikaela about the encounter that he had with Ironhide and Lennox but didn't know how to tell her. But Mikaela made it easy for him. "Sam, is there something that your not telling me something about Koda?" Sam was still not sure how to tell her. "Well Mikaela, I thought that she was normal when I first met her, but last night, I began to have doubt. Last night, Bee and I had a visit from Major Lennox and Ironhide. He said something that has left both Bee and I questioning Koda since yesterday." Sam saw the questioning look on Mikaela's face and wasn't sure how to put it so he just said what Ironhide said. "Ironhide said that she may not be human. He met and talked to her and thinks that she has something to hide. He also believes that she may have a connection to the Decepticons. I didn't totally believe what Ironhide said until what happened up on the hill. Now I don't know if I can trust her anymore."

Mikaela just stood there, trying to take it all in. "So what your saying is that she could be one of the 'Cons? Come on Sam, I wouldn't go that far." Sam just looked at her surprised. "Well can you explain what happened up in the hill?" Mikaela already had an answer to that. "Sam, don't you think that the energy pulse that came from her hands looked familiar." Sam didn't understand what she was talking about but then began to remember the last time he had see an energy pulse like that. "You don't mean… the Allspark?" Hearing this, Bee's door wings and antenna perked up. Mikaela glanced over at Bee, giving him a nod. She then turned her attention back to Sam. "Yeah, I can't very well believe it myself but it does look like that. I don't know how she could have a power like that but it is something to consider." Mikaela, Sam and Bumblebee stayed in the backyard, wondering about the girl down the street who has a power just like the Allspark.

Down the street, Koda had walked into her house, seeing that Ty was still on the couch playing video games. "Hey Ty, have you been on the couch all day?"

Ty paused his game and looked up. "Oh, Hey Koda. Your back early." Koda just looked at him. "Ty… I've been gone since 2:15, it is now 6:53. It takes half an hour to get to the lookout."

Ty was unsure of what to say so he just went back to playing his game.

"I'm gonna go eat supper. And then I am leaving. And I'm driving." That got Ty's attention. "Hey?" Koda just looked at him and smiled before walking into the kitchen. "We had a deal."

Later that night, Koda and Ty headed out in their jeep, a little later than Sam and Mikaela. Koda was sitting in the driver's seat, staring at the road ahead of her, sometimes glancing over at the sunset to the west. "Ok Ty, do not embarrass me in front of Sam and Mikaela. If you do, I will fry your game system like I did to your ipod." Ty just looked at Koda shocked and then that look was replaced with anger. "You did that? You totally owe me a new ipod." Koda just began to laugh. "Ha ha. Yeah sure. Maybe." Then she turned her attention back to the road and they continued on. Ty then decided to speak up. "Hey Koda, what is going on with you today?" Koda just looked at him. "What are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about you and the meteor shower. You seemed so pumped for that pat week and now you just seem different."

"I am still pumped about the meteor shower."

"I mean that you seemed a little drained after you came home today."

"Oh that. Well, I used my power a little bit today to jumpstart Sam's Camaro. I guess I used more than I thought I had."

"That would explain it. So, how is it going with trying to control your powers?"

"Well, I have been able to control it more now than before. I have had a few problems with it as of recently. I have had several energy surges when I touch electrical devices. I actually accidentally fried your ipod's circuits. I just meant to erase the music."

"Oh, sorry for getting mad at you but you still owe me a new one."

"Ok."

The two siblings had almost made it up to the hill as it became total nightfall. Koda put the jeep into a faster speed to make it up the hill. As they got to the top, they spotted Sam and Mikaela. Koda parked the jeep next to Sam's Camaro and they both got out of the jeep. Koda and Ty then walked over to Sam and Mikaela. "Hey Sam, Mikaela. Are you guys psyched for tonight? I know I am." Sam and Mikaela both smiled at Koda. Then Koda remembered that Mikaela hadn't met her brother yet. "By the way Mikeala, this is my brother Ty. And Ty, this is Mikaela." While the two shook hands, Koda leaned over to whisper into Ty's ear. "And Ty, she's taken." Ty just looked at Koda. "Ah man. She is hot." When Mikaela heard that, she just laughed. All four of them then gathered at the edge of the hillside and began to watch the night sky.

At the bottom of the hill, Ironhide and Will were waiting patiently for what was to come. Will sat in Ironhide's driver seat eating a burger. He looked out the window to the top of the hill, seeing the 4 teens sitting there. "Hey Ironhide, who do you think is coming in tonight? Is it Bot or Con?" Ironhide spoke through the speakers. "I am still uncertain of who may be coming in. What I do know is that they are going to soon be descending into the Earth's atmosphere."

"Well, we gotta be prepared in case there is a battle. Good thing we got Bee here as well. Also Ironhide, you did inform Optimus of the suspicion you have about the girl, right?'

"Yes Will, I have informed him and Ratchet has been going over the scans that I had done but he wants to scan the girl as well. The problem is, he would need to be in contact with her to do so."

"Are you saying that we should bring her back to base?"

"Yes I am. But we would need to take precautions against it."

"So your saying that you want to reveal yourselves to her and get her involved in this war? I don't know if that's the right thing to do. She is just a teenager. She is the same age as Sam and he's only involved because of what happened last year. I think that it wouldn't be a good idea to get her involved."

"Well she may be a danger so we have to take that risk."

"Yeah well, back to the matter at hand. Why didn't you tell Sam and Bumblebee about the real reason for the meteor shower tonight?"

"I have informed Bumblebee over our internal communications but I thought that Sam had enough to worry abut so I decided to, how do you humans say, leave him in the dark. What I do know is that if anything happens, Bumblebee will keep the humans safe."

"Ok, if you say so." Will then looked up to the sky and saw the first of several lights begin to streak across the sky.

Up on the hill, Koda was excited to see the meteor shower begin. Ty saw the excitement on his younger sister's face and was glad that she was happy. He smiled at the joy that she had. "Hey Koda, you have been looking forward to this for so long. I am glad that we could see it together." Koda turned to look at her brother and smiled. "Thanks for coming Ty." The two siblings then hugged each other. Sam and Mikaela had gone to sit of the hood of the car. The were enjoying the shower but Bumblebee was a little uneasy because he knew the truth about the shower.

The lights were streaking across the night sky and then all of a sudden, there were several larger lights falling. As they fell, the lights got larger and Koda and the others could make out that it was large fireballs and they were headed right for them. Sam recognized these shapes as well as Mikaela. They both knew instantly that they were Cybertronians that were entering the earth's atmosphere. Sam and Mikaela acted immediately. Then they drew attention to Ty and Koda who knew nothing of the otherworldly beings. Sam ran over to the two who had got up from where the were sitting. Koda ran over to Sam with Ty right behind her. "Sam, what's going on?" Sam knew that there wasn't time to explain, he just knew that they needed to get out of there. "Look you two, I can't explain what's going but I can say that we need to get out of here, NOW!"

Down the hill, Ironhide and Will were getting into action. Ironhide had started to drive, speeding up the hill, while Will consumed the last of his burger. "Ironhide, it's time to get into action. Are you ok with revealing yourself to them?" Ironhide was sure that the danger was his top priority. "Yes I am sure. Will, Your job will be to get Sam and the others out of there." Will nodded. "Right." And Ironhide continued up the hill.

Sam and the others had gone to Koda's jeep in order to get away. Sam was leaving Bee behind so that he could take care of it. As they started the drive down the hill, Ty and Koda were calmer than he thought they would be, but they were still a little scared. As Koda drove, the fireballs that had been heading straight towards them had crashed into the hill side.

Al of a sudden, Koda saw a large black pickup truck drive by them up the hill. "Wait a minute, is that… Will? And Ian?" Ty looked at her. "Koda, you mean dad's military friends?" Koda just nodded. Then she made a drastic move and stopped the Jeep. Sam just looked at her. "Koda, what are you doing?" "There,s something going on here and they know what. I also think that you know as well. And I'm gonna find out." Koda turned the jeep around and headed back up the hill at full speed. When they got to the top, they didn't believe what they saw.

A/N: I hop you like this. If you want, leave a review and tell me who you want to be to have crashed on earth. You can give the name of a bot or a con, or both. There may be more than one.
