Um. Sorry for the lack of updating...Though, I think some of you may already be use to it. Instead of once a week, it might change to one every two weeks. Only because mid-terms are over but Band practice isn't. So just a little heads up.

A thanks goes to lightan117 for messaging me. I'm glad you like the story but I'm so sorry that this took so long to actually get out!

More thanks goes to the faithful reviewers! As well as those who alerted and faved!

Many of you already have guess that Julia has what is equivalent to, Autobot optics. Hence her sudden change in eye color. Which most of you are heading in the right direction!

Can Julia and Will solve their father daughter problems? Or will someone else help solve it? Is it Ironhide? Or someone else?

I own nothing.


-Ironhide's P.o.V.-

I was sitting outside the Lennox residence, thinking about the earlier events that occurred. But my thoughts were interrupted from the slight shouting heard from the household. It was Will who was yelling. Good thing his mate and other child were absent from the house, they had gone somewhere in the time of mine and Julia's absence. At least, that's what my scanners picked up.

*What's going on in there?*

A few moments later, Will stepped out into the backyard and had his head down low.

"Having problems Will?" I asked the man as he sighed deeply before leaning his back on my grill.

"You have no idea, 'Hide." He sighed, again.

"Try me."

"Fine. Julia… I don't know. She came home with a different eye color…Where did you two go? Did she go to the Optometrist or something?"

"I haven't the slightest clue in which you're talking about Will." How could a human change their eye color? What the slag is an Optometrist?

"Then just answer this 'Hide, where did you two go?" He looked over his shoulder.

"We went to the 'music' store." I really should tell him about Mission City…but…Would Julia get punished for it? Wait…what would it matter to me?

"Where else?"

"…Uh…"

"'Hide, where else?" The concern in his voice…He was a caring father alright.

"We went to Mission City…" I sighed in defeat. My scanners picked up Will's increased Heart rate.

"You what?!" He turned around and faced my grill. "Ironhide!"

"Hey look, it wasn't my fault. I tried stopping but she opened my hood so I had to function properly again before she decided to do something else." I protested.

"Well what the hell happened there? My girl has different colored eyes now!" Will frantically threw his arms in the air.

"…She does?" I don't think she has different colored eyes. I, out of all bots, would have noticed that at least. I was the one she was driving in anyways.

"YES! She DOES!" Will hissed.

"Okay, okay, Will."

"Ironhide, what happened?" I should tell him.

So that's exactly what I did. Lucky me, Will managed to stay quiet the entire time I was explaining the story. Can't say he said some kind words at the end, but oh well. I told him the entire encounter with the AllSpark fragment.

Will groaned before putting his face in his palms and shaking his head left to right.

"I'm sorry Will." That's all I could possibly say right now.

"It's okay Ironhide. I should've known she wanted to go there. Earlier, she was looking up something about Mission City. And then she wanted to go out for a while? I should have put two and two together." He continued to shake his head.

"I heard. She's a smart girl, Will. She had already guessed about our existence…"

"I know, 'Hide." He sighed. "So…You think that AllSpark shard that fused with her body, is the reason why her eye color changed?"

"It's a possibility. But that is something we have to ask Ratchet." If anyone were to know, it'd be Ratchet. Our CMO, Chief Medical Officer.

"Maybe…maybe we should tell her about you guys…" Will rubbed the back of his neck.

"So soon Will?" The femme just returned home yesterday. "I don't think it'd be safe to tell her about it now…Maybe we should wait a month or two."

"Maybe you're right…But what about the Decepticons?"

"There is no need to worry about them. I'll annihilate any Decepticreeps that come near."

"I wouldn't doubt that." Will let out a small chuckle. "I'll probably have to report this to the government too."

"In my opinion, I'd say you keep quiet about the AllSpark fragment and your daughter." I snorted. "We have witnessed your race's capacity for destruction…And exposing your daughter to the government wouldn't be the best for her health…"

"You're probably right about that too…If I told them about the AllSpark fusing with her, she would immediately become a live experiment…" I knew Will was right about that. The same thing happened to Bumblebee when we first came to Earth. He became the humans' experiment. The poor kid shouldn't have gone through it, but he was protecting Sam and Mikaela…

"She would become their experiment…Your race is a cruel one, but there are some decent ones…Like you, Sam, and Mikaela. As well as your daughter, so I won't let her go through what Bumblebee went through." I replied sternly.

"Thanks so much, Ironhide." Will sighed with a friendly smile. "Speaking of Bumblebee, I do think it's okay to have Sam and Julia see each other again."

"You're right- Wait, again?" He caught me off-guard when he said 'again'. What did he mean by it?

"Yeah, again." He smiled. "Julia and Sam were friends since they were in Elementary School. Though, I'm not totally sure if they actually remember each other because they were in the same school for at least 2 years." Will tapped his chin in a thinking like pose.

This might make things a bit easier then. If the two know each other, then introductions will be an easy process.

"Maybe inviting Sam over will lighten up the mood between you two." I suggested, seeing as Julia had locked herself in her room, and her father is out here talking with me.

"Good idea, he's a pretty goofy kid but I'm positive that he'd be able to bring a smile on Julia's face." Will smiled. "Then it's decided, I'll call Sam and invite him over." He pulled out his mobile cellular phone and pressed a few buttons.

"Hey Sam, what's up…Great, you wanna come over for bit? I want you to meet someone…No, not my wife…NO, not my mother either…Okay, look, just come over and see for yourself…Yes, you have met her….JUST BE HERE SAMUEL." Will sternly growled into his phone before flipping it close and shoving it back into his pocket.

"I see that Sam is himself today." I let out a low chuckle.

"Okay, I take it back. He'll either put a smile on Julia's face, or she'll put a hand print across his…Or fist print…" Will sighed as he rubbed his neck.

"That would be interesting." I chuckled once more at the though of Julia, slagging Sam right across his face.


Oh-ho-ho. Can Sam possibly get Julia in a better mood? Should Will tell Sam what Ironhide told him? Who knows.

If you haven't guessed, Sam and, more or less, Bumblebee will be making an appearence in the next chapter!

Thanks for reading!
