Chapter 8: The Arrivals

It was the end of summer when Harry heard news about what was going on back in Britain.

The new base, in Diego Garcia, was enormous! It could easily fit multiple Bots of Optimus's size and all the armed forces assigned to help them. They were even recruiting allies from other nations, like the United Kingdom. It was unlikely that the Cons would all land in America and even if they did, there was no guarantee that they would remain where they landed. The group of human partners had been created by Will after Sector 7 was disbanded and replaced by N.E.S.T, which stood for Non-Biological Exterrestrial Species Treaty. The logo of it was and upside down triangle, with a bull in the middle and the letters at the top in bold writing.

Ratchet had already converted one of the hangers as his personal medical wing. He and Remus had been getting on quite well with each other. Remus brewing new potions for the humans while explaining all about Magical healers and the lives of Werewolves, the old Medic fascinated with everything the Wizard said. He was often the Autobot the Werewolf spent the most time with. The two becoming a dangerous combination when people tried to get out of a medical.

Currently, Remus was with Sirius as the full moon was only a day ago. He was on bed rest while he recovered from the transformation. A small bunker had been warded for the Werewolf during his change, that way no one could get in or out unless there was an emergency. They also placed Silencing Charms as Moony tended to be very loud, sometimes tearing the place up even with Sirius in there with him.

Fred and George had ventured to Franklin's Village to look for a building for another Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes, expanding their merchandise since the one back in Britain was doing better than expected. The whole village had been made by the sixth President of Pennsylvania, the man being one of the first Wizards to try and combine Magic and science. He created the village as a way for Witches and Wizards, from all over America, to meet in safety. The whole place protected by many charms so only a Wizard, Squib or a Magical creature could find it. Those without Magic, would simply see a large, open field of wheat.

Ironhide and Jazz were teaching the humans how to take down a Decepticon by going for their week points. Ironhide had been tasked with protecting Will and his family as Lennox was technically the leader of N.E.S.T. So it was only natural that the two worked together to keep the older soldiers in shape and the new ones in line. Harry nearly died of laughter every time they introduced newbies to the Weapons Specialist because he started in his alt-mode, with Will building up the suspense, before transforming. A few people even fainted at the sight of him which led to Ironhide having a few dents in his head, curtesy of Ratchet's endless supply of wrenches. Sirius did a similar introduction to Magic. The Animagus having changed from his dog form to human right in front of them. He then continued to mention that should any of them even think about hurting Harry, not only would they have himself, an overprotective Werewolf and five alien robots after them, but also two certain prankster red heads. One recruit had scoffed, the idea of the teens being a threat unrealistic to him. The joke was on him when Fred and George used him as a demonstration for one of the twins Canary Creams. Even now, the soldier wouldn't touch any food that has been near them, fearing that he would be turned into a bird again.

Bumblebee was staying to watch over Sam and Mikaela, in case any rogue Decepticons decided to go after them. The two of them had another year left in high school before they graduated. Mikaela's dad, now out of prison, meant that they could start up their old mechanics shop again so she was going to work there after school while Sam went on a gap year before going to college.

Poor Optimus had stacks of paperwork he had to do, from both the Government and the war. The datapads he had contained millions of data which he had multiple piles of. All stacked upon his transfigured desk they had made for him, along with very comfortable chair. Harry was lucky he only had to concern himself with the Magical ones; this included getting vows from all those involved, making the base unplottable to most surveillance devices and going over all Magical related needs for the Autobot and Magical alliance.

Harry was sitting in the main-ops centre, surrounded by technicians who were clicking away on their keyboards while he was studying one of his dad's old books from when he had become an Animagus. Harry wanted to find out what his Animagus form was and so did the twins. It was taking a while, but they were slowly getting there and Harry couldn't wait to see what his form was.

A brown owl suddenly came swooping in with a letter attached to its claws. Spotting the only Wizard in the hanger, it dropped the letter in his lap and landed on the table in front of him. The exchange caused a few surprised looks, most still not used to some of their abilities, but they were quick to get back to work once the bird had settled.

Gringotts had been kind enough, for a price, to redirect any letters he got from those he had said could. All the while, disposing of the ones that had any form of Compulsion Charms or Love Potions inside. Seeing that the owl looked knackered, Harry summoned a bowl of water and a few food pellets for it from his room. Once that was sorted, he took the letter from the bird and began to read.

Dear Harry

I am glad to see that your plan worked. I know this because two Dementors turned up in Little Winging and attempted to attack your relatives. They are still alive (unfortunately) thanks to a Squib that lives near you contacting some Auroras; her name was Arabella Fig, do you know her? Both Dumbledore and the Ministry have finally found out you are missing and are in an uproar wondering where their saviour is. Although, I think the Ministry is more focused on trying to draw away attention from the fact that two Dementors got loose from them. Dumbledore is also furious. I was listening in on an Order meeting and he's telling everyone that, apparently, Sirius and Remus have kidnapped you. The twins are also missing, sending Mrs Weasley into a state but Mr Weasley looked strangely calm when I saw him. They wouldn't happen to be with you would they? Anyway, there are a few here that look a bit sceptical at his claims, especially Sirius' cousin Tonks. He's also been asking me and Ron if we have heard from you. Thankfully, he can't use any Legilimency on me because I've been staying close to other members who would question him on his actions. I'll try to keep an eye on them for now and I hope you're okay.

Love Hermione

Harry put the letter down and rubbed his face in annoyance. He knew that Dumbledore was going to be looking for him now but he doubted he would have to worry about him searching in other countries for a while. The Goblins won't tell him anything either as they rather not get involved with most Witches and Wizards, rather sticking to only concerning themselves with a their money. They had refused to get involved in the first war, even with the Ministry trying to threaten them (like that was going to work, they literally held the Wizards fortune in their claws) and then labelling them Dark Creatures, the Goblins would remain neutral unless a Wizard was to kill a Goblin.

He smiled though, glad he had someone keeping an eye on that mess. He didn't know what he would have done if Hermione hadn't been there for him.

Flashback

Harry was sitting in one of the many alcoves in the Gryffindor commons. Almost everyone else had gone to bed with a few falling asleep on the chairs, having been unable to make it back to their dorms after the party had ended. He was shaking still, from the left over adrenalin and fear from the first task. It was almost as bad as the time after he fought the Basilisk. Even after finding out about what Ron was up to, Harry still couldn't believe that it was true and didn't know how he should act towards the red head after the sort of apology. He didn't want the other teen to figure out that he knew their plans.

"Are you okay Harry?" someone suddenly asked him. He jumped a bit, having not realised that someone was next to him. Harry relaxed though when he saw it was only Hermione, the Witch looking at him in concern.

He shifted a bit, trying to get some feeling back into his legs after sitting down for so long and looked out at the Black Lake "I'm fine Mione"

Hermione turned him back to face her and to stare directly into her eyes, which didn't look amused "Harry James Potter, I have known you for four years so I know when something is bothering you. Whatever it is, you can tell me"

Harry tried to see if there was any deceit in her eyes but all he could see was concern. He had been suspicious because if Ron hadn't been his friend, then the same might have been for Hermione. Harry didn't think he could handle another person lying to him like that but seeing the sincerity, he decided to risk it.

"Did you know that Ron, Ginny, Molly and Dumbledore are planning to steal my money " he asked quietly.

She crouched down so that she could hear him better "Sorry, I couldn't hear you. What did you say?"

He repeated the question, her face turning to show a look of surprise as he did "What?"

"Ron, Ginny, Molly and Dumbledore were planning on forcing me to fall in love with Ginny so that when we marry, I would leave everything to her in my will"

The look of surprise she previously had was being replaced by an anger that only Malfoy had ever been able to make her have.

"Are you sure Harry?"

"Yes, I overheard them talking about the night my name came out of the goblet"

"WHY THOSE VILE BASTARDS! HOW DARE THEY DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT!" She practically shouted. It was lucky that everyone had gone to bed and the few that were still there were in a deep sleep. Harry was more surprised that she had swore. He had never even heard her say dam before today! She was now breathing in and out deeply, simultaneously clenching her hands in rage. Her eyes, which had closed when she began her breathing exercise, had once again opened, looking a lot calmer and showing sadness quite clearly in her brown orbs.

Hermione pulled her wand from her robe, whispering to him so no one overheard them even though she was shouting only moments ago "I, Hermione Jean Granger, do by swear on my Magic that I never knew about anything that those Harry mentioned were doing. So mote it be" her wand glowed a bit before going back to normal. As soon as she proved that she still had her Magic with a small Lumos, she ended the spell and pulled him in to a tight hug.

Startled by what she had done, Harry gaped at her. She had just placed her Magic on the line for him. That type of spell was only one level below an Unbreakable Vow and some would consider it worse because most couldn't bear to live without their Magic. This sometimes led to them harming and/or killing themselves. The only reason that Hagrid had never resorted to this was because he still had his Magic, he just couldn't use it thanks to the Ministry having broke his wand "Mione, why-"

She cut him off before he could ask her as she already knew what he wanted to know "Because I would never do something like that to you Harry. You're practically my brother and I promise I would never break your trust like that"

He was the one who hugged her this time. The Wizard knew the twins were always there for him but he was glad that Hermione was actually his friend. She was technically the first, real friend he ever had. He didn't know how long Ron had been doing this for but he doubted a true friend would have done the same.

Once they separated he told her "I'm getting out of here Mione. With someone trying to kill me with this tournament and those four out to get my money, I need to go somewhere safer than Hogwarts"

She nodded in understanding. The Witch would have done the same thing in his situation, despite how much she loved Hogwarts "Do you know where you're going or how you're going to get there"

"I've already talked to Padfoot and he is arranging everything. Moony's coming along to so you don't have to worry about me keeping up with my education"

They decided to move over to the seats in front of the fire so that they could warm up, both sitting in a comfortable silence.

"You're going to have to pretend to be Ron's friend still. He did make that weak apology for accusing you of entering you name. You would have normally forgiven him. If you're going to keep Dumbledore from finding out your plans, then you're going to have to act like nothing has changed"

"Your right. I'm also going to have to start eating around them again. I'll just have to watch what I eat, maybe get some counter potions to the potions they've been feeding me"

"You should ask Dobby, I'm sure he would be more than happy to do that for you"

He bobbed his head in agreement and yawned a little bit, finally feeling sleepy. It seemed that talking about his problems with Hermione had drained the last of the leftover energy from the tournament. He got up to stretch out his sore muscles while telling her "I'm going to head off to bed. Night Mione" he was nearly at the stairs to the boys dormitories when she called out to him "Promise me one thing Harry"

He looked back at her, his head tilted to the side trying to guess what it was "What is it?"

"Promise me you'll find a way to keep in touch" her eyes showing that she didn't want to lose her only friend.

He smiled tiredly at her "Of course I will" he vowed, then headed off to get some much deserved rest.

End of flashback

A klaxon suddenly went off, making Harry fall off his chair in fright at the sudden noise while the owl glanced at him before returning to its food. The hanger door began to open wider for the four running Bots who had just entered, Optimus in the lead.

"What's going on?" Harry asked no one in particular. He watched as people ran all over the place, looking at the different monitors.

"A Cybertronian signal has been detected entering the Earth's atmosphere" Epps said, coming up the steps along with Will and looking at one of the screens.

"Do we know if it is a Decepticon or Autobot?" Will asked.

"Definitely an Autobot. There hasn't even been an attempt to hide the signal. If theses calculations are correct, they will be landing in America within the next 10 minutes" Ironhide told them.

"Then we should probably get to where they are landing before they walk off"

Looking at the screens, Harry decided to help them out seeing as the place that they were going to land wasn't populated by anything. That, along with the fact that he could now make a Portkey thanks to Remus and Sirius' lessons "I can have a Portkey made to take us there. It's basically instant teleportation by casting the spell on to an item that everyone will have to touch, or hold on to someone touching it. But I don't suggest bringing loads of soldiers with us"

"Will you be able to take all of us?" Ratchet asked.

He bobbed his head in agreement. Lately he had been finding that spells where coming a lot easier, only needing a few tries before he had learned it. Harry put it down to Remus' teaching methods, making them easier to follow than the ones in Hogwarts "Yes, just find me something big enough that all of you can touch at the same time"

"Okay, so all Autobots are going along with Harry. I think only myself and Epps out of the humans should go. A lot of the men have a drills today and if it's not a Decepticon attack, there's no point in taking them away from it" Will concluded.

Jazz had left and come back into the building in seconds, a large piece of metal held in his servos. Harry was confused as to why he was here though, he was pretty sure it was his turn to watch the sparklings "What about the sparklings?"

"No worries lil guy. The sparklings are exhausted, 'cept Techstream, so some of the humans are watching them for a bit" he said, putting the piece of metal on the floor so that Harry could easily reach it.

Making sure that all his books were back into his bag which had an undetectable extension charm on it. Perfect for carrying his books in than having to summon them all the time. Once they were all away, he climbed down one of the ladders and drew his wand in order to cast the necessary spell.

"Portus!"

Ensuring that the spell was complete, he told the other humans "Just grab on to one of their feet. There will be an uneasy feeling in your guts but no matter what, do not let go" they both nodded in understanding, grabbing on to the nearest Bot while Harry held on to Optimus. As soon as all the Autobots had a hold of the Portkey, he said "Tranquillity" and felt the familiar tug on his navel that accompanied the activation of a Portkey. The base disappeared from view in seconds.

Twins POV

Fred and George popped back into a strangely deserted base. They had come back earlier than expected as they had found the perfect building relatively easy. Looking around the main operations building, they saw that while there was still people here, the Autobots, Harry, Will and Epps were missing. It was unusal not to see at least one of them in the centre of everything.

Walking up to one of the technicians, George asked "Have you seen where the Bots and that went?"

Without looking up from her computer screen, she replied with "Yes. They're bringing in some new Autobots that landed just outside of Tranquillity. They should be back soon" she missed the identical grins of mischief on their faces once she told them.

"Thanks" Fred said. They both left to start getting something together for the newbies.

"I believe that we have been neglecting our pranking duties Fred"

"I think you are right George and what better way to get back on track than to prank some unsuspecting aliens?"

"Agreed, so what do you think brother mine? Something completely new or the classics?"

"You can never get enough of the classics dear brother" George replied, rubbing his hands together in anticipation.

"Just what I was thinking but perhaps we should upgrade it slightly?" Fred suggested, summoning the items they need for the welcoming party and chuckling along with his brother.

A few people who had just walked into the main-ops centre quickly backed out at hearing them laugh. They all new that whatever they were planning, was not going to be pleasant. It would be best to stay far away from them for the rest of the day.

"I think I'm going to hurl" Epps groaned out from behind his hand.

"Yeah, I hate that too. Much rather flying on my broom instead"

When Will felt that he was no longer going to throw up his breakfast, he said "I heard you mention that before. So Witches and Wizards actually fly on broomsticks?"

"Yeah, there's actually a game for it called Quidditch. The twins and I will have to show you sometime"

"At least we don't have to go far to find them" Epps commented, pointing to where they could see six separate grooves in the ground but no Cybertronians.

"They must have went to find alternative modes" Ratchet said. He scanned to see if he could find any traces of the mysterious Autobots.

Jazz suddenly felt something in his spark that made it hum in joy "Well ah think ah know who one of them is" he was practically bouncing in excitement.

It took a few nano-kliks for the rest of the Autobots processors to click in realisation. Once it did, looks of horror adorned all their faces, confusing the humans "If he's here then that means-" Whatever Ratchet was about to say was suddenly cut off when a red blur tackled him to the ground, screaming out "HATCHET!"

When the dust cleared, they saw that Ratchet was underneath a red, silver and black Cybertronian. The Bot's helm and servos were black as well as his pelvic area and the bottom of his peds. The pieces in between his armour were a very, shiny silver as was his faceplates which had the same blue optics as all the other Autobots. The rest, and making up a majority of his frame, was a bright cherry red. Judging from the hood of the car on his chest and the wheels on his heels and upper arms, Harry guessed they had already scanned their vehicle modes. Whatever car it was, was definitely made for speed. The doors were attached to his back and kept twitching about while Ratchet attempted to push the annoying Bot away.

"Get off me you fragging pit spawn of Unicron!" Ratchet finally managed to get back up but the red Bot was still attached to his side, refusing to let go of the Medic.

"Aww don't be like that Doc. You missed us really" he whined out.

Another voice suddenly interrupted the strange reunion "Careful Sideswipe, he looks like he's about to get out his favourite wrench" they all looked over to see a similar Bot to the one now known as Sideswipe. Leaning against a bolder with his servos crossed and a smirk on his silver face, watching the interaction with aversion. His doors and wheels were in the same place as Sideswipe but his colour scheme was different; being mainly yellow, while other parts were black and silver. The black was on the upper and lower part of his arms with yellow in between them. His knee plates also had black on him while peaking between the parts was the same silver as his faceplate. His helm was also shaped differently to the other one, looking like he had two extended ears.

"Why don't you come and hug him as well Sunny?" his voice muffled out from behind Ratchet's servo, which was pushing at his face in a futile effort to detach him.

"One, I'm not about to ruin my brand new paint job and two, DON'T CALL ME SUNNY!"

"Are you as confused as I am right now?" Epps whispered to Will. He was looking between the two newbies trying not to laugh as Ratchet still couldn't push Sideswipe off.

Harry couldn't help laugh at the two of them which finally made the red and yellow Bots realise that there was others there as well.

Harry suddenly found himself in the air, held by Sideswipe who had finally let go of the irate Medic and rushed over to pick up the laughing organic.

Sideswipe looked down at the tiny, stunned organic. He had black, fluffy stuff on top of his helm and vibrant green optics that looked at him in curiosity. He looked over at the other organics and noticed that he was a lot smaller than the two of them and was wearing different protective coverings to them.

"So this is a human" he poked Harry's stomach lightly. It tickled the Wizard somewhat but he held in the giggles "They're so squishy. Sunny! Come see how squishy they are" he continued to poke Harry.

The yellow Cybertronian cuffed the other one's helm "STOP CALLING ME SUNNY! And I don't want to touch the organic, I might accidentally squish it and get it all over me"

"Put the human down Sideswipe before you hurt him" a new voice said. It came from a black, white and silver Autobot that looked a lot like the Decepticon Barricade. The car doors on his back even having the sign for the police on them. This is where the similarities ended as his glass windows were on the bottom of his legs, while he had one set of red and blue lights on his shoulders. The Cybertronian had a slightly smaller frame than the Decepticon but the same height and his faceplates looked emotionless. In the centre of his helm was a red crest, looking a bit like horns, and the Autobot emblem was in the middle of his chest, in between his two headlights.

With a cry of "PROWLER!" this bot soon suffered the same fate as Ratchet had only moments ago. Jazz knocked him to the ground and proceeded to nuzzle his helm against the mech's chassis. Harry almost missed the small smile the black and white Bot sent Jazz before it disappeared.

"It is good to see you too Jazz" his monotonous voice stated, seeming to be uncaring but he didn't push Jazz off of him.

He stood up with Jazz still attached to him but his face remained impassive "It is also good to see you again Prime" he said, standing ramrod straight in front of Optimus. It was quite a funny image with Jazz still attached to him like a kola bear.

Optimus smiled warmly at him "As it is you Prowl"

"Umm, you want to fill us in here Optimus?" Lennox asked.

"My apologies Captain Lennox" gesturing to the black and white Bot he said "This is my Second in Command and Military Strategist Prowl, Jazz's Sparkmate. Those two" he waved in the direction of the yellow and red Bots, who were still holding Harry "Are the Front-liner twins, Sunstreaker and Sideswipe" noticing that there was three missing, Optimus turned back to his Second in Command and asked "Do you know who else was with you?"

Prowl nodded his head "Yes. Arcee, Elita-One and Chromia have also accompanied us"

Ironhide, who had been glaring at the twins until now, quickly turned to face Prowl "Chromia is here" his voice sounded excited. The only time Harry had ever heard the Weapon Specialist talk like this was about his weapons and using those weapons against a Decepticon.

"Yes. They must still be trying to find an alternative mode"

"And there goes all my work of blocking the bond to surprise the big lug. Thank you Prowl" a feminine voice said sarcastically. The owner of the voice was a small, female Bot coloured blue with some white markings on her. She stood at about 15 feet and instead of two legs, they ended up in one wheel. There was another wheel resting upon her back. Two similar Bots stood behind her. One was a reddish pink colour with black markings but instead of one wheel as her peds, there was two joined together. The last one was a dark purple with white markings and like the blue one, she had one wheel for her peds. The other was split into two on the back of her servos. All of them were the same height and had the bright blue optics of an Autobot.

As soon as the blue female was in front of Ironhide, she used the wheel as her peds to jump up and grabbed his chin plate. She pulled him down to her level to give him a deep kiss.

Harry's vision of the two kissing Bots were obscured when Sideswipe transferred him to only one of his servos and used the other to block his view "Eww! Come on you two, there is a youngling present. We don't want to mentally scar the poor squishy"

Harry tapped one of the digits to get his attention "I would appreciate it if you didn't call me squishy. My name is Harry"

"We should finish the introductions and then head back to base. Don't want any humans seeing us" Ratchet grumbled out. He was glaring at the twins, still not happy about Sideswipe attaching himself to his frame earlier.

"Ratchet is correct. The sooner the introductions are done, the sooner we can leave" Optimus then motioned for the femme who was still kissing Ironhide but now had two legs, the backs of which had half of her wheel on them "This is Chromia, Ironhide's Sparkmate and her sisters Elita-One" he gestured towards the reddish pink bot who said 'Hello' "And Arcee" he concluded for the Autobots, Arcee giving a small wave as he did.

Prime then began to introduce the humans "Autobots, I would like you to meet some of our human allies. Captain William Lennox of the human alliance know as N.E.S.T, one of his men Sargent Robert Epps and our human liaison to the Magical government, Harrison Orion"

Arcee finally spoke for the first time "Magical government?"

"Yeah. Apparently, there's this secret world that we humans didn't know about either" Epps explained.

Prowl's face remained impassive if a bit sceptical. He looked at his Sparkmate for confirmation of this claim only to see that he was nodding along with the human "Jazz, you cannot actually think this is true? Magic is not real"

Jazz simply smirked at him, the kind of one that promised that he was up to no good "Just hold on ta tha thought there Prowler an' try not ta glitch" he then smiled at the human in Sideswipes servo "Hey Harry, why dontcha yah show 'em one of yah spells. Just ta prepare them for when we take them back ta the base"

Harry pulled his wand back out, thinking about which spell he should cast.

"Avis" he said, a flock of birds flying from his wand straight after and startling the new Cybertronians around him.

Jazz looked up at Prowl smugly as the birds flew away to who knows where "So, believe mah now?"

Surprisingly, the Saboteur only got a twitch from one of Prowls optics as a reaction "It could have easily been a holographic projection"

"I assure you Prowl that what he says is the truth" Optimus tried to reassure the Bot but it did not seem to be working. Prowl was a strictly logic based Cybertronian, anything that didn't seem logical to him caused him to glitch.

"I think we should just head back. He might believe once we get there" Harry suggested. Optimus tilted his head in agreement and held out his servo "Please give me Harry Sideswipe"

Sideswipe raised a metal brow in confusion "What's wrong Prime? Don't you trust me to watch a human?" he exclaimed in mock hurt.

A clang rang out when Ratchet hit Sideswipe in the head with his wrench.

"Seriously, where does he keep them all?" Harry thought while Sideswipe moaned in pain "Just give Prime the boy you glitch head, he's his guardian" Ratchet told the now stunned Bot. The new Autobots had all similar looks on their faces as they stared at the boy as Sideswipe handed him over to the Prime. Once Harry had climbed into their Commander's servo, Optimus lifted up a large piece of metal in his other one, the piece looking out of place to the others.

"If you would all grab a hold of this, then we can head to the base. Make sure you hold on tight and don't let go no matter what" even though they looked confused at what Optimus asked of them, they still followed his command and grabbed on to the metal. When Harry saw that everyone was touching it, Will and Epps holding on to Ironhide's and Jazz's peds, he activated the Portkey and whisked them away back to base.

Diego Garcia, outside main building

"And that's just going to be worse every time we take it isn't it?" Epps questioned. He was holding his stomach from the left over nauseating feeling. Will looked more prepared, if slightly green, while the Autobots had mixed reactions. The ones who looked the least affected were Sideswipe and Sunstreaker.

Harry shrugged his shoulders at him "It's different for everyone. Some find it gets easier over time and others learn to cope with it"

"How is this possible? That piece of metal could not have been a teleportation device" Prowl asked. Harry noticed that he seemed to be twitching a bit and that Jazz had moved slightly behind him as if expecting him to fall.

"Easy there Prowler, we don't need yah ta glitch on us"

"That was so awesome! Can you do anything else with this Magic?" Sideswipe asked eagerly, the Bot easily believing him after that stunt. Having triangulated where they were compared to where they had been, Sideswipe knew it couldn't have been a teleporter. Having had multiple experiences with teleporting Con (Thank you Skywarp) the red Bot could feel the differences between the two forms of instant transportation.

Harry was even getting some curious looks from Sunstreaker. The Wizard got the impression that he would be a hard Bot to impress but looked like he at least believed the young Wizard.

Before Harry could respond, Optimus requested "Before you bombard him with your questions, why don't we head inside where no eavesdroppers will hear us" they had to be careful as even after warding the base, the Cons could try and find a way around it. They couldn't take any chances of the Decepticons overhearing them.

Sideswipe practically dragged his twin over to the hanger doors, Sunstreaker protesting the whole way and complaining to Sideswipe about him scratching his finish. Getting closer to the doors, they started to open for the two but as soon as they stepped over the threshold, a pink liquid fell on them; followed shortly by sparkly glitter of various colours. The two bots had frozen in disbelief until they heard the combined laughter coming from behind them. They turned to the source of it to see two, identical humans with red stuff on top of their heads. The pair were rolling on the ground, laughing their afts off at the other twin's predicament.

"Oh Primus no! There's another pair of them!" Arcee said dramatically but it seemed to be the breaking point for Prowl. He twitched and fell to the floor with a load thud, Jazz to busy laughing at the Autobot twins to notice.

Sideswipe and Sunstreaker onlined and offlined their optics owlishly "Sunny... We're we just pranked?" Sideswipe uttered out. His processor was still trying to get over the fact they, the Autobots legendary pranksters, has been pranked by a few organics. Sunstreaker didn't even acknowledge the red Bot about calling him that, to busy building up a rage over his ruined paintjob.

"Welcome to Earth Autobots-" One of the red head organics said. They had stopped laughing but now had matching smiles that screamed of mischief.

"You have just been pranked by the amazing-"

"Brilliant-"

"And spectacular-"

"Terror twins of Gryffindor-"

"We hope you enjoy your stay" they finished together. Before the Cybertronian twins could respond, the red heads disappeared with a pop, leaving only an echo of their mad cackling behind.

Harry watched in amusement from his new perch on Optimus' shoulder. It only took a few more seconds before the now pink Autobots turned around and faced Harry, Sideswipe looking like he was going to burst from excitement while Sunstreaker looked furious.

"Who are they-"

"And where can I find them?! I have some fleshies to roast" Sunstreaker demanded, activating a gun on his servos as he did. The base of it was still yellow and it seemed to be for long ranged attacks. The barrel was silver and you could see it glowing blue as it warmed up, ready to fire at the two Wizards.

Sideswipe cuffed his brother on his helm "Like frag you will! We may have just found our future accomplices and I won't have you squishing them or anything else" he sent his twin a deadly glare that could rival the one Sunstreaker was wearing a moment ago.

Harry suddenly noticed the weird, shiny like quality of the paint "Oh no" he said aloud. If these two were anything like the Weasley twins, then he had a feeling that they were going to retaliate after they found out what they had really done to the paint.

Optimus had heard what Harry had said and it set him on edge. Harry knew the Weasley twins longer than he had and being that they created a majority of their pranks, he must have noticed something different about this one "What is it Harry?"

"It's just that paint is one of their newest inventions. No matter how much you clean it or paint over it, it won't come off without the counter solution. Paint will just be absorbed by it and using spells will only start to make it glow like a neon pink nightlight"

"WHAT!" They both shouted.

"I don't care what you say Sides, those squishys are mine" the yellow twin walked off in anger with his brother right behind him.

Harry watched the twins as they went to find Fred and George. Looks like his brothers were going to have some competition with them around.

"Should we be worried that none of you are going to stop them?" Elita-One asked. When Sunstreaker's paint had any sort of damage done to it, he would come after you like a scraplet would a Cybertronian.

Jazz had one of Prowl's arms slung over his shoulder as he was still unconscious "Nah, the twins will be fine. They're like human versions of Sunny and Sides. Plus, they got their Magic as well" he dragged the police Bot in the opposite way the Autobot twins went "Imma just take Prowler 'ere ta ah berth until he wakes up. We 'ave ah lotta catching up ta do"

None of the other bots notice them leaving, or the smirk that Jazz had on his face plates. They were too busy still thinking about how they had two pairs of Sunstreaker and Sideswipe now, all of them dreading what was to come next.

Harry continued to smile. It would do everyone good with these set of pranksters around to lighten the mood. He laughed at the horror filled looks on everyone's faces though, including Will and Epps from what he could see "I think the term 'we are royally screwed' is appropriate"

With Dumbledore

Dumbledore smashed another one of his useless trackers, the device having been keyed to the boy's Magic but yielding no results. He quickly cast a Reparo so that anyone who came into his office wouldn't notice anything out of place.

He couldn't believe that the boy was gone and since the beginning of summer. His plan to make a few of the lower members of the Orders think that they had been watching him wasn't as option now. Trying to make it seem like he was making sure that Harry was fine, without anyone finding out how the Dursley's treated him. He couldn't have risked Obliviating or using the Imperious on someone like Moody. He was trained to look for things like missing and/or changed memories. With his constant vigilance, it also meant he couldn't get away with using the Unforgivable. The same went for Shacklebolt, Nymphadora, Snape, McGonagall and Remus. Now the others would know he had been lying about it unless he could think of something, and fast.

"I should have realised something was wrong when Black went missing!" It angered him that he failed to see the importance of looking for Black. The elderly Wizard was hoping that he would end up being caught and executed so that Harry had no one to cling on to. He never even suspected that Remus was involved as he had given him a mission of getting the Werewolves on the side of the Light. Again, he should have realised that something was wrong when he never got any reports from him.

If that wasn't bad enough, the Weasley twins had also gone missing and no one had noticed. Molly had thought that they were with Lee Jordan after she destroyed their newest batch of jokes and tricks. The pair had stormed out of the house, with all their belongings, and said they were staying with him. However, when Molly exploded on Mrs Jordan from keeping them from her two months later, it was to find that Lee hadn't seen them since the end of term after leaving a list of things to do to their new shop while they were away.

Dumbledore hated that his plans were all falling to pieces. It had been simple enough to get Molly, Ronald and Ginevra involved with the promise of wealth, fame and the chance to marry and have the child of her hero. Even convincing Nicolas Flamel to give him the Philosopher's stone to mind had been very easy. The only problems he had encountered was when Sirius had first escaped and when Harry had nearly died killing the Horcrux in his second year. He had not expected for Lucius to be as foolish enough to try and get his Lord back in such a way but it thankfully worked in his favour. Now, Harry had a way to destroy the other Horcruxs with Gryffindor's sword that was infused with Basilisk venom.

He tried once again to track the boy's Magical signature, only to get the same result as the last time he did. The only way that Dumbledore could think of why it wasn't working would be because the boy had become emancipated. But he couldn't even check because the Goblins refused to disclose anything about their clients and despite his instance that he was the boy's Magical Guardian clients, they still would not let him see. Even the boy's Hogwarts's letter couldn't find him.

As if that wasn't enough of a problem on its own, the Minister had also decided that he was unsuitable for the job as Headmaster of Hogwarts. Thankfully, he couldn't take that position away from him but that didn't mean that he couldn't recommend someone for any teaching jobs available. With no one else applying for Defence Against the Dark Arts, he had no choice but to employ the toad like woman Cornelius had practically thrown at him.

"I won't let this delay my plans. I will just have to find a way to get the Minister to search everywhere for him. Nothing will stop me from getting what I want" with that thought in mind, Dumbledore began to plan for a way to bring his pawns back under his control.

Finally the twins are here because I absolutely love them. There will be about two more filler chapters before I go on to the second movie. Thank you all for the follow, favourites and reviews I'm glad you all like it.
