So I'm ridding inside of bee. We are on our way to Vegas. Its optimus, ironhide, captain Lennox and a few of his men. I'm really happy because elita had to stay behind with ratchet on the base. It was something like she wasn't ready to go on missions yet or something like that. Honestly I'm pretty sure optimus made her stay behind for me. Which I'm really happy for cause these last couple of days have been hard what with things "anciently" almost squishing me.

Its ok though because we can stay in Vegas for two days after we find sideswipe. Why? Because the military wants the autobots to learn more about humans. What better way than Vegas. To bad I'm only sixteen and cant do a lot of the cooler stuff here.

I'm so lost in my day dreaming that I didn't notice that bee and the others got off the highway and we are heading to the hover dam. The others head to the military part while me and bee go to the tourists part of the dam. I get out of bee to stretch my legs for a bit. Bee turns on his hologram. We start going for a walk because bee wants too.

There's a new bridge that they build as part of the highway high above the hover dam. I didn't even notice how high up we were when we past that bridge. it's a good thing too because its really up high.

"Sam isn't this a cool view?"

"Besides the bridge it's the sam as last time bee. I don't like it here. To many bad memories."

"I'm sorry sam but ill protect you if anything happens."

"Thanks bee."

"Bee?"

"Yes sam."

"I'm excited to meet sideswipe. Do you think he'll like me?"

"Of course sam. And if he doesn't he has to because your our primes mate."

"Gee thanks ."

"Are you excited about Vegas sam?"

"Yea I cant wait to get on all the rides!"

"Your get on the rides with me right bee?"

"Of course sam."

As we are talking we are walking around. I stop to look at the new angel statues that they have here. it's a memorial. There's also a old couple that's makes there way over. They walk over to us and ask if we could take a picture of them. They hand the camera to bee. But poor bee is so lost. I have to take the camera and show him how to use a camera.

They thank us and leave but before they leave they tell us what a cute couple we make. Poor bee. His hologram turned as red as a cherry. I couldn't help but laugh. We notice optimus and ironhide come over in there holograms along with captain Lennox and his team.

"What so funny sam?" Ironhide asks.

I point to the old couple walking away.

"They told me and bee that we make a cute couple."

Ironhide and Lennox look at optimus with smirks on there faces. Why? Because optimus if throwing a glare in the direction of the old couple. Bee looks scared now instead of embarrassed. I try to change the conversation.

"So have you found a location on sides?" I ask.

"We know that he is somewhere in Vegas but his communicator is damage so we cant communicate with him and vise versa and we also cant get a fix on his locator." Captain Lennox replys.

" Do we know what he looks like? I mean aside from being a giant robot from outer space?"

"No we do not sam. We know he has taken a car form but we just don't know which one."

" So we are going on a scavenger hunt for a giant alien robot?"

They all stay quite at my comment until optimus lets out a chuckle.

I love to hear him laugh. It makes me smile. I start daydreaming about all the times he's rescued me. He really is my knight in shinning armor. Bee has to poke me in the side where I'm ticklish to get me to pay attention to what optimus is talking about. When did he start talking?

"We will spit into groups. Captain Lennox and a few men will accompany him in the south side. Ironhide and his group will take the east side. Sergeant Epps's group will take the west side. And my group will take the north side."

"What about me and bee?"

"Sam you will stay with bee and stay out of trouble."

Stupid optimus. I wanted to come so I could help. Not so that bee could baby sit me. Oh well at least I can go exploring the town with bee. We start heading back to bees true form and start heading to Vegas with the others. Once we hit the highway we all slip up.

"Bee I'm hungry. Can we stop to eat somewhere?"

"Yes where would you like?"

"Anywhere I don't mind."

"There's a Carl's jr. up ahead. Would u like me to stop there sam?"

"Yea that's good thanks."

Bee's view

I pull into the Carl's jr. for sam. She gets out and tells me she will be right back. She goes in through the front door to the restaurant. Sam doesn't know what she wants so she's taking a look at the menu.

There is nobody here besides sam and the workers.

Sam knows I'm her guardian. But what she doesn't know is that optimus has instructed me to make sure she has a good time in Vegas and to inform him if any human males touch or flirts

with sam. He's very protective of her. Of course we all are.

But after what happened at the dinner I can understand why optimus wants me to inform him. Sam told me about what happened. I find it very entertaining that the little snot nosed human child had the nerve to call optimus Sam's father. He's not even old enough to be her father.

I notice that in this restaurant there are all males and they are all at the font counter waiting for sam to order. They cant take there eyes of her. And off of my true form. I'm listening to there conversation.

"that's a nice looking camaro,yours pretty lady?"

She smiles at them in a polite way.

"Yes it is."

"Wow I wouldn't mind taking a ride with someone as pretty as you."

Whatever,like I would ever let you ride inside of me.

"can I get the cranberry apple salad please." sam tells one of the cashiers. She goes to hand them the money but the don't want to take the money.

"its on the house if I can get your number?"

"I'm sorry I cant I'm in a serious relationship." she shows them her ring. I commed optimus as soon as I noticed all the males starring at sam.

Optimus view

I've barley been driving ten minutes since we all spit up before bee tells me what's going on. I hit the breaks from anger. Not a good idea to do on a packed highway going 70. I take the next exit off the highway to turn around and head in the direction of the Carl's jr. they are at.

I channel ironhide and tell him to turn around and meet me there. I get there in no time and so does ironhide. Once parked I turn my hologram on and start to head inside along with ironhide. I inform the men with us to wait outside. I can hear there whole conversation and I can smell all of there pheromone levels.

I'm angry that they would even ask her for her number. Of course I trust my sam and I smirk when I hear her tell them no and show them the ring I got her. I see him grab her arm and speak.

"Oh but he's not here is he?"

"No but I love him, please let go of me your hurting me."

"I would but your lover boy isn't here is he?"

"Yes I am."

They both turn to face me.

"Let her go."

"No. we are friends. Aren't we?" he turns to face sam.

"make him let go please!"

Ironhide takes a hold of the boys wrist and he lets go of sam. She comes and hugs me and hides behind me. My poor princess is scared. Ironhide is about to break the boys wrist before sam asks him to stop.

"consider yourself lucky punk." ironhide tells him as he lets go.

Ironhide head back to his men and I carry sam to bee.

"baby girl I thought I said stay out of trouble?" I try to tell sam not trying to sound mad at her.

"I'm sorry I just wanted some food." she's almost in tears.

"its alright don't cry sweet spark. Just go with bee and get food somewhere else ok?"

"ok."

I'm at bumblebee when he opens the door for sam to get in. I put her down when she calls my name.

"yes sam?"

She gives me a hug and a kiss on my cheek.

"thanks big guy for what you did."

"you don't have to thank me. Just go with me and eat somewhere else ok."

"yes sir." she smiles as she solutes me and hops inside of bee.

She always can make me smile even when she's about to cry. I watch bee drive off with sam. I head back to my men so that we can go look for sideswipe.
