When time began billions of years ago...

There stood 2 gods...

Unicron and Primus..

Primus stood for peace, unity and freedom, while unicron stood for destruction, evil and tyranny

For many mangy years they fought for control of the galaxy as the stars and planet's formed around them

Parts of them shattering off as they fought shards of their power shattering throughout the galaxy and landing on distant planets

Eventually Primus sacrificed his body and his energy to stop Unicron and banish him into a deep void where he can never be found...

Primus with all his remaining energy became the planet cybertron, his heart became the planet's core... the allspark...

Primus used what was left of his energy to create 13 robotic life forms

They were the original 13 primes. They started out as primal as primus gave them more robots to reproduce with and build up their society, and when primus saw they were ready... he gave the primes infinite wisdom

They developed proper languages and cities, entire nation's on cybertron's surface

2 groups of these life forms existed. Autobots and decepticons...

As the ancient age of cybertron ended and the prime's descendants moved on a vile and evil rage known as quintesseons invaded cybertron to absorb it into their empire

But they failed when the nations of cybertron United and fought tooth and nail to ensure their planets survival and freedom

Soon the quintessons fled the planet as the overwhelming force of the Cybertronian's armies and sheer courage decimated their invaders on the battlefield

A prime named Alpha Trion led this fight. His wisdom and strength inspired both Autobots and Decepticons to stay United

But soon after the invasion

A new problem began. Cybertron United under 1 government. They disarmed all decepticons and put them in internment camps

The decepticons were seen as 2nd class citizens due to them being primarily military bots before, during and after the invasion.

In these internment camps horrid living conditions were the norm

Decepticons we're used as cannon fodder for the Government of cybertron as Autobots lived cleanly and safely within the large advanced cities

These decepticon ghettos would be the birth place of Megatron who would soon lead a revolution that would soon become the Great War of Cybertron... in his quest for equality megatron became corrupted by bloodlust and resentment

And his revolution soon turned into a struggle between good vs evil. As the once United revolutionary force of both autobots and decepticons to stand up against the oppressive government split as the government collapsed entirely..

The war took many twists and turns as the autobots and decepticons fought for control of their planet. The war went on for millions of years until cybertron's supply of energon began to run low, energon being the life blood of all cybertronian life and a powerful resource that powered their technology

Cybertron was dying

An expeditionary force led by Autobot commander optimus prime and his team went to earth where it was believed centuries worth of energon was stored by primes who explored the galaxy and created caches of energon in the event of a catastrophe

Optimus prime was pursued by Megatron and his decepticons

Until they touched down on earth in the prehistoric days in a land which would become modern day Australia deep in the wilderness of what would become the state of Queensland. The crash of both of their large ships sent them into stasis lock for centuries until in during the Cold War secret weapons testing awakened the autobots' computer Teletraan 1

This led to the world and the canine race learning the history of the transformers.

The decepticons began manipulating the Aussie government to join their side with promises of great power in the empire they wanted to establish. As the Us, Aussie army, and the Autobots banded together to lead a coup that would give control to the us.

After the coup the us president became head of state after the uk realized they had too much to worry about

Optimus prime made sure that everything went peacefully and all those who tried to betray earth would face proper and humane justice as the us constitution became the rule of law

Optimus prime also ensured Australia's freedom, dignity, and culture remained intact despite the governments transition into a Puerto Rico style commonwealth leading him and his team to become beloved and admired around the world for their diplomatic and peace talk excellence and optimus prime's genuine, soft, and kind nature.

This coup on the army's end was led by Mort Cattle. The soon to be father of Chili and Brandy Cattle

Soon the new government and department of defense created a new branch within the military

It would be called "N.E.S.T"

This new branch utilized technology more advanced than any other nation. Weapons and equipment Powered by energon to give humanity a fighting chance against the cons with the help of the autobots...

It is now the year 1984..

Bandit Heeler has just Graduated and is gonna turn 18 in a matter of weeks. His and his little brother stripe's goal is to Join nest and become infantry soldiers who are trained to fight decepticons head on. It's one of the most dangerous jobs in earth. Their father Bob Heeler was a soldier within nest and got the chance to meet and befriend optimus prime himself. And Bandit's older brother Radley Heeler is a nest soldier currently serving and is deployed.

This is their story... welcome to Heelers in Disguise...

Heeler household July 1984*

Everyone is sitting at the table in the morning as Chris cooks

"So boy. You've graduated high school" said Bob with pride in his son. "Yeah dad I did finally," Bandit said with a smile. "I'm not too far behind dad," Stripe spoke up wagging his tail.

Bob smiled and patted both of his sons on the head

"I do wish Radley was still here with us." Said Chris a bit sad and missing her oldest son who was deployed overseas at an autobot base. "I know hun but he's serving our country and we should be proud of him," Bob said looking at his wife. "Yeah... you're right!" Said Chris with a small smile, wagging her tail cheering up a tad

Bandit wanted to join nest but knew his parents would be against it. Same with stripe

"Um.. Mum, Dad?" Bandit said looking at his parents. "Yes mate?" Bob asked while looking at his paper. "Yes sweetie," Chris said . "I-I want to join Nest," Bandit said nervously. "What?!" Chris shouted before lightly burning herself on accident. Bob jumped up quickly and helped his wife to the sink and ran cold water on her hand.

"Dang..." said stripe absolutely bewildered "ouch... but more importantly are you serious?!" Chris asked angrily shaking her hand off, the burn not being anything to worry about long term. "M-mum. I'm serious. Infantry." Said Bandit. "Bandit! Do you not realize how many infantry troops die a year? We're in an endless war with aliens! We're here everyday hoping the notification officers don't come to our door and tell us Rad isn't coming home! I can't lose my sons!" Said Chris with less anger and more concern and anxiety

"Now let's be opened minded with him dear let's hear him out," Bob said calmly taking a sip of coffee and placing his mug down. "I... ok.." Chris managed to utter before relenting. "Look... I-I understand. I miss Radley too. And I'm scared for him too like we all are... it's just I wanna do something with my life that means something. To be part of something bigger than myself. I wanna help protect earth..." Said Bandit.

Bob took a breathe and lightly exhaled calmly

"So... you wanna join nest. The most dangerous job on this planet. Hehe. Takes me back. I admire your goals son." Said Bob calmly with a small smirk and nostalgic chuckle

Chris teared up but understood her sons wishes. Bob helped finish breakfast just as a moving truck next door was pulling in.

"About time someone moved into that house. We should go greet them. It's our neighborly duty" said Bob being a man of integrity and respect. "Yea... we should.." said Chris with a sad tone of voice causing bob to hug her. "Our boys have big dreams and big goals. They're heelers... they won't fail.." said Bob comforting his wife as they prepare to greet the new neighbors

"Hey Bandit! There's a girl next door," Stripe said looking out the window. "A girl?" Bandit asked curiously as he approached. "C'mon boys let's go greet our new neighbors up close!" Bob called out. "Comin' pops!" Said Stripe

Bandit then joined his family and went next door to meet the new neighbors.

Bob approaches who he assumes to be the dad of the family

"Hello there!" Said Bob kindly. Richard a black and white husky looked at Bob and smiled "hello there! Good morning! We're new to the neighborhood! Seems lovely so far!" Said Richard happily as both men shook each other's hands. "Hello!" Willow a red and white husky who was also Richard's wife said as she came out from the house.

"Hello there! Welcome to the neighborhood!" Said Chris kindly shaking willow's hand. "I'm Bob! Bob Heeler!" Said Bob. "And I'm Richard Husker!" Said Richard. "It's nice to meet you," Willow said with a smile. "Emily! Come meet our new neighbors!" Willow called her daughter. Emily then came from the house. She was a black and white husky with one blue colored eye and the other brown. This got Bandit's attention.

"H-hello!" said Emily kindly but respectfully. "H-hi!" Bandit said nervously as his heart fluttered upon seeing Emily.

Her younger brother Prince comes out of the house "sup!" Said Prince in a chill tone. "Hi! I'm stripe!" Said Stripe. "I'm Prince!" Said Prince. "Looks like someone made friends," Chris said to her husband with a smile. Bandit kept eyeing Emily which made Her blush a bit.

Emily approached bandit curiously and shyly

Bandit blushed looking at her. "What's your name?" Emily asked. "Uh B-Bandit," Bandit said still blushing. "Well it's nice to meet you bandit!" Said Emily happily. "It's nice to meet you to Emily!" Bandit said with a smile.

"Where are ya comin' from mate?" Bob asked. "Los Angeles! I got a job out here and we decided to move here!" Said Richard. "We'll you sure picked a great city to live in," Bob said with a smile. "Hey stripe! I want to show you something follow me," Prince said taking Stripe into the house

"What do you wanna show me?" Stripe asked curiously. "Here! Come look!" Said Prince leading stripe upstairs to the bedroom. Stripe then walked into the room and saw Prince opening a small box.

Prince pulled out a small metallic purple hunk of metal

"This fell off a terracon during a battle! When me and my dad went into town to help cleanup! I nagged it! I think it's part of the symbol cuz it's purple and it looked like it used to glow!" Prince explained excitedly. "Woah..." said Stripe in awe. "Do you want to hold it?" Prince asked as he looked at Stripe. "Yeah sure!" Said Stripe

"Jeez! This is heavy!" Said Stripe. "I know right! For a small hunk of metal it feels like a bowling ball!" Said Prince with wonder. "Yeah it does," Stripe said still holding it

Throughout the day the families got to know each other nana and willow even baking together happily. Emily, Bandit, Stripe, And Prince quickly became friends

Stripe and Prince Rode bikes together while Richard and Bob got to start a barbecue together. Bandit and Emily sat out on the deck. "Did you just graduate?" Emily asked looking at Bandit. "Yeah! Thinking of joining the military." Said Bandit. "I did too right before we moved! I kind of wanna join too. Enlistments are at an all time high. Everyone wants to be a hero I guess!" Said Emily chuckling. Bandit chuckled "someday I'm going to save so many lives," Bandit said looking up at the dusk skyline.

"Yeah. What branch do you wanna join?" Emily asked tilting her head causing bandit to smile. "Nest? That's the most dangerous branch!" Said Emily surprised. "Yeah! My brother Rad is actually part of nest! My dad was too he barley retired!" Said Bandit. "Oh wow! Did they get to use that maneuvering gear and those energon swords?" Emily asked. "Yep! My dad even knows optimus prime!" Said Bandit. "That's so cool!" Emily said wagging her tail, Emily then accidentally touched Bandit's hand.

When they're paws touched a bit of blue lightning formed around their hands for a second as Bandit's eyes widened

Strange symbols and visions flashed... but he couldn't make it out, this all unfolding in seconds

Bandit sat eyes wide and his teeth gritted in a utterly shocked facial expression. Emily didn't look surprised

"...I saw it too. Everyone I meet who doesn't share my blood... when I touch them for the first time it happens." Said Emily in an almost shameful time of voice

"I.. um..." Bandit said confused. "I know it's hard to understand... there's something about my family. We're different... the government is watching us 24/7..." said Emily whispering "Well, you can trust me I won't tell," Bandit said with a small smile rubbing the back of his head

Chris was in the kitchen cutting some veggies when she looked out the window and saw a black car

It was Radley. He got out of the car with crutches some soldiers helping him out as he thanked them. And they drove off

"Oh my!" Chris said going outside. "Dad! Radley's back!" Bandit called out Excitedly

Chris ran out of the house and hugged Radley tight but carefully, tears pouring down her eyes as Radley hugged her back as she cried softly tears of pure joy and relief

Bob then went to see his oldest son with a tearful smile. "Don't you ever leave me again... Never..." said Chris holding her son. "I won't mum... I...I promise!" Said Radley shedding some tears holding back sobs

Richard and willow smiled at the happy reunion, Stripe and Bandit also rushing to Rad hugging him

Emily and Prince both smiled seeing their new friends getting reunited with their brother. He had a broken leg and shrapnel wounds and scars all over his body

Radley using crutches was helped inside

"How are ya feeling mate?" Bob asked patting his son on the shoulder "Like a mess pops. But hey! At least I'm getting an honorable discharge!" Said Radley with a chuckle happy he didn't get in trouble and get a dishonorable one. "Oh honey you must be hungry! We were just having a Barbie with the new neighbors," Chris said. "Oh alrighty!" Said Radley waving at the new neighbors as Chris took him inside to change out of his uniform so it wouldn't get dirty.

Bandit then went back to Emily. "So that's your older brother huh?" Emily said crossing her arms

"Yep!" Said Bandit Proudly but with a tad of sympathy.

Radley looked happy but bandit saw in his eyes there was something wrong

"Hopefully he gets lots of cuddles to help him heal!" Said Emily with a chuckle. "He will!" Said Bandit chuckling then going back into his more sympathetic mood.

"Something wrong Bandit?" Emily asked. "Nah nah. Just sucks to see my bro so hurt. But he'll be fine! Mum's cuddles always do the trick!" Said Bandit wagging his tail. "You guys share a bed still?" Emily asked curiously. "Yeah most nights cuz my dad works nights and is gone days at a time. So we always have a lot of room. Us heelers need big beds!" Bandit explained chuckling. "Yeah we do too! It's not that bad for us cuz I'm super skinny and Prince is pretty small! My dad does take up a lot of room tho!" Said Emily with a giggle "H-hey!" Said Richard chuckling

It wasn't unusual for families to cuddle at night. It's a norm for the dog species. Cuddles are the main alternative for "reproductive activities" in this world to put it lightly (more will be explained about this in the author's note at the end, if your familiar with the main ab books I'm sure you know the whole thing already lol carry on readin now :) -Abhq)

Bandit laughed at that knowing the feeling of when his dad took up the bed as well.

"Aren't cuddles the best? I don't know how coomers do it. So gross..." said Emily. "Yeah I know right! Cuddles are pure! And they're good for the body!" Said Bandit

Radley came out with his crutches out of uniform

Prince and Stripe were playing with some water guns until Prince accidentally bumped his sister into Bandit causing him to hold her. "Sorry sis!" Prince said running off.

Bandit and Emily giggled awkwardly

"I'm sorry about that," Emily said. "Your fur is pretty soft if you don't mind me saying," Emily said blushing while looking down.

Bandit blushed getting super red

"Yeah it is isn't it!" Said Bandit with a awkward giggle. "So who do we have here?" Rad asked teasingly with a smirk

"Uhhhh... nothin'" said Bandit extremely awkward. "Right..." Rad said with a chuckle. All 3 chuckled as rad sat down. "Where are my manners.. You must be Emily!" Said Rad respectfully. "I am and you must be Bandits older brother Radley," Emily said looking at Rad. "I am and you don't have be formal with my name it's just Rad," Rad explained with a chuckle.

"Alrighty good to know! Hehe" said Emily with a chuckle. "Dinners ready mates!" Bob called out to everyone.

"God it's been so long since I've had some barbecue.." said Rad's mouth watering. Everyone ate and talked getting to Know each other. "To new Neighbors and new friends," Bob said giving cheers.

Everyone enjoyed their day with their new friends.

The world around them was going crazy. As a global alien war was raging on. But days like this reminded them that dogkind was worth fighting for

Soon night fell and everyone went home

The heeler brothers and Chris sat in the living room watching tv as bob showered upstairs getting ready for work.

Rad sat next to Chris her snuggling up to him and his brothers snuggled up to his other side soothing his aching muscles and sore body.

Bandit couldn't stop thinking about Emily as he sat there with his family. Bandit then stood up and went out to the balcony. He noticed was already out there watching the stars. He smiled seeing her beauty as the wind was hitting her fur. It was then he knew he would want to protect her always even if it meant risking his life for her.

(The next day...)

Chris wakes up to all her sons cuddled up to her, She smiles and kisses them on their snoots

Rad is barley waking up and snuggling her

"Morning sweetheart... how does it feel to be back home and in a nice warm bed?" Chris asked nuzzling him. "Good... peaceful..." said Rad with a small smile and a yawn

Bandit then got up and stretched. "Morning dear." Said Chris happily. "Morning mum!" Said Bandit

Stripe was still knocked out. Even though he was a teenager he had a ton of energy and got tuckered out quick

Chris smiled and kissed Stripe on his head. Rad whines a bit when he tries to sit up

"Easy does it now honey... easy does it" said Chris helping him. Stripe starts to wake up a bit. "W-what's going on?" Stripe asked.

"Nothing dearie. Rad's just a little sore" Sajd Chris petting stripe's head as he snuggles her. "Oh I'm sorry about that Rad," Stripe said looking at his oldest brother. "It's okay mate," Rad said now being able to sit up. Bandit then stood up from the bed. "I'm gonna go for a run," Bandit said while stretching. "This early?" Chris asked looking at the clock. "Yea! Gotta stay fit! I'll be home in time for breakfast!" Said Bandit. "Alrighty then sweetie. Be careful!" Said Chris

"I will mum," bandit said as he left the house. Bandit was starting on his run until he noticed someone was running behind him. "Hey Stranger," Emily said. "Morning!" Said Bandit with a chuckle. Emily then ran beside him. "Training I see," Emily said

"This compared to infantry training? We'll have to see! I usually run in the mornings to keep myself healthy and active." Said Bandit with a smile. "Same here!" Emily said.

Multiple black cars zip past them catching them off guard

"What the..." said Bandit. "Watch out!" Emily said as she pushed Bandit out of the way making them both fall on someone's lawn. Emily landed on top of Bandit as the cars flew past them. "S-sorry," Emily said still on top of him

They both share an awkward laugh

Back at home*

Chris hears a knock on the door and she answers it to 2 men in suits standing at the door

Chris opened the door. "Can I help you?" Chris asked looking at the two men. "Good morning ma'm... I'm Agent Simmons with N.E.S.T. This is my fellow Agent Fowler. We've come here for Radley Heeler." Said The older taller agent. "Yes sir he's here. He's really hurting right now so he's in bed." Said Chris "oh! Understood!" Said Fowler in a friendly tone in stark contrast to his fellow agent's more stoic tone

These 2 agents weren't aggressive or evil in any way. They're only goal was to check up on him.

"But he's this way," Chris said letting them in. The two agents looked at Stripe and whispered to each other. "another potential candidate," Fowler whispered. The two agents then saw Rad And began to speak with him.

A large red and white truck then pulled up

Bandit and Emily arrived back due to their curiosity about the cars. They stopped in their tracks when they saw the truck

"...no... WAY... O-optimus prime?!" Emily exclaimed in absolute awe. "Optimus?..." Bandit asked as they got closer and saw the Autobot symbol.

Bandit smiled and wagged his tail excitedly. He hasn't seen optimus in weeks

Bandit lightly touch's the truck.

The autobot symbol above it's grill glows

It begins rapidly shifting as Bandit and Emily jolt back being startled

The truck rapidly shifts and transforms as gears and pistons shift in place and metal parts go into place, his robotic head and snout pop out as his pointy ears form on the side of his head

The wheels on the sides of his legs whirled with a satisfying sound as they shifted into place

Before they knew it a nearly 40 foot tall robot stood before them

He looked down at them and gave a small humble smile that gave them a sense of security

"Hello My canine friends" Optimus prime said softly. "H-hi" Emily said with a nervous smile. "I hope I didn't scare you." Said Optimus. "N-no your fine! I'm... I'm a huge fan!" Said Emily respectfully and very nervously. "Well optimus. This is Emily! She's new to the neighborhood!" Said Bandit. "Nice to meet you Emily. Me and my team of autobots are in charge of protecting this community while we aren't on missions." Said Optimus kindly

"Oh I know and Bandit and I are actually going to try get into Nest," Emily said with a smile "Are you sure? It's a very dangerous job. You'd likely be fighting alongside us. It's a very hard title to earn." Said Optimus

"We we can do this Optimus! Under your command our forces can achieve anything!" Said Bandit. "I will always admire your species' courage and determination. But do understand, to become a warrior takes great spirit and patience!" Said Optimus prime. "We will do anything to protect the dogs we love," Emily said. "Thank you Optimus!" Said Bandit

Optimus wagged his large tail (yes they are Bluey dawgs but transformers lol)

"Careful with that thing optimus!" Bandit exclaimed as the wind from his tail started pushing things and a few agents lost their footing, holding on to their cars to keep standing

"My apologies!" Said Optimus rubbing the back of his head much now bandit did

Meanwhile in the room with the agents and Rad*

"I'm tempted. But I can't leave my mum here again. Especially since my brothers wanna join." Said Rad. "Sector 7 isn't as dangerous or as time consuming as you think. You'll only be deployed when your called upon, very rarely. You'll get paid quite handsomely... Isn't this everything you wanted to work for?." Simmons said and asked

"I'll think about it..." said Rad. "Alrighty. You know how to contact us." Said Simmons as they shook each other's paws. "Thank you for having us mrs heeler." Said Fowler to Chris as they respectfully dismissed themsleves

Bandit and Emily were still outside and in awe of Optimus prime

"How long are you gonna be chilling here prime?" Bandit asked. "Well. I came here for a reason. Unrelated to the agents inquiry." Said Optimus.

Emily was about to ask a question until the agents came out of the house.

"Hello kids." Said Fowler respectfully as they walked past them.

"Hi" Emily said with a warm smile "hi," Bandit said with a smile.

The agents left but optimus stayed.

Bandit and Emily both looked at Optimus

"You see.. I came here to discuss the fact you wanna join nest, I knew since before I arrived. Your father told me. He wanted me to tell you the reality of this line of work of planetary defense..." said Optimus. "I know my dad worked hard to get where he was and I want to do the same," Bandit said.

"I understand... but are you sure you really wanna go through with this... we are sent all around the world non stop for possibly months at a time. The decepticons are a cruel and unrelenting enemy. They don't stop until their enemy is either crushed or enslaved. Your brother has seen the some of theworst of it. But I won't elaborate further..." said Optimus with genuine concern. "We both are sure of this," Emily said while placing her hand on Bandit's shoulder

"Truthfully... this should be our fight only... just us autobots and decepticons... humanity just had to get involved.. and I understand. It is your planet. And a planet you have let me and my Autobots call home..." said Optimus Bowing his head with guilt

Emily and bandit gave optimus a sympathetic look

"We fight for what believe in mate we will stand by you," Bandit said. "You, your autobots and our soldiers keep us safe everyday from decepticon tyranny. You guys fight hard and well. Tooth and nail every waking moment to ensure our freedom. I remember the first words I can ever remember hearing you say..." said Bandit. "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings..." said Optimus clenching his paw into a fist and lifting his head up remembering little bandit hear him say those exact words

"He said it..." Said Emily almost fainting from fangirling Bandit catching her all 3 of them sharing a chuckle

After some more talking bandit and Emily headed inside. And as optimus was about to return to base. Chris walked out of the house

"optimus..." said Chris. "Yes Chris?" Optimus asked. "I need you to make me a promise..." said Chris

"What promise do you need me to make?" Optimus asked curiously

Chris looked up at him with a haunting look and glimmer in her eyes

"That my boy comes home alive..." said Chris a tear coming down her face

This sent chills down the Autobot leader's spine

"I-I... I promise you Chris. I'll do everything in my power to make sure bandit comes home safe. Along with our comrades... you have my word... I promise." Said Optimus

They gave each other a respectful nod as Optimus transformed and drove off...
