Normal POV

Fury walks into the main room and up to Sledge and Megatron.

"Well done, Fury, you got the yellow energem," Sledge says.

"Yes, here you go master," Fury says as he hands the energem to him.

"Sledge, since I accepted your offer in lettings me store all the criminals from your ship and add the weapons to mine. I suggest that you have Fury go out and locate more of these energems so I can use one to power my ship's fusion cannon," Megatron says.

"Lord Megatron, we should deal with Bulkhead and Wheeljack and make sure they don't get away," Starscream says.

"We don't have to worry about that," Breakdown says as he pulls up the ships camera's on the screen.

They watch Wheeljack walk around the ship with Tracy on his shoulder. The group hears Tracy telling Wheeljack about how she was treated as a teen.

"That human does give off a vibe of hurting others," Breakdown says.

"Yes, but it looks like Wheeljack may be turning into a softy," Starscream chuckles.

"Starscream, did you hurt the human?" Knockout asks. noticing the makeshift bandage on Tracy's arm.

"Yes, it is not like the human is going to die," Starscream replies.

"We may not know a lot about human biology but her face looks pale. She may have lost too much of that red liquid from her body," Knockout says.

"She won't die," Starscream says.

Wheeljack's POV

My holoform looks over at Tracy, and I decide to go back to the Jackhammer when I see her face is pale, and she is shivering.

I'm sorry partner, I know you want to get that energem back but you need to see Ratchet. I think too much of that red stuff has leaked out of that cut,

I turn on the heat hoping it would help warm Tracy up. I make a quick u turn and sped back to the Jackhammer. My holoform takes Tracy out of the car. Then hand her to Bulk so I can transform.

"Jackie, did you find the crystal?" Bulk asks.

"Not yet, but I couldn't risk Tracy going offline," I reply.

"I like seeing this side of you, Jackie," Bulk says.

"Don't get used to it, Bulk." I say sitting down in the driver's seat.

After I turn on The Jackhammer's engine, and glance over my shoulder, I see Tracy shivering worse than she did before. When we arrive at the base, and run inside Doc(Ratchet) doesn't even bother asking us what happened. He just told Bulk to get Tracy to medical bay.

"I'm sorry Wheeljack," Ricky says.

"Why are you apologizing, kid?" I ask.

"Because, if I tried harder to convince her to come with us, she wouldn't be in her current state," Ricky says.

I see tears start to from in his eyes. I put my hand on the floor and Ricky climbs onto it. I set him on my shoulder. He scoots over to nuzzle into my neck.

"I find out that I have a sister, and I don't want to lose her in the same day," Ricky says as a few tears start to roll down his cheeks.

A few minutes later, Ricky powered down, I mean fell asleep, so I carefully placed him down on the couch when the other humans had a tv set up. I turn on my holoform and walk up the step. I'm guessing that Jack's mom must have brought some things, since there is a blanket sitting on top of the couch. I unfold it and draped it over him.

Don't worry Ricky, I know Tracy will pull through. That girl is too suborn not to, she and Bulk are alike.

Ratchet's POV

"I can't believe I had to use ten stiches to close the cut on Tracy's arm. It didn't look that deep," I say putting the needle in the trash.

"Ratchet, I've contacted agent Fowler. She needs some IV antibiotics to prevent septic shock or any bacterial infections." June says.

"I'm glad she doesn't need a transfusion," I add.

"How is she doing, doc?" Wheeljack asks as he enters the med bay.

"She's going to be fine, but why did you wait so long to bring her here?' I ask.

"Starscream took something from her the cons were tracking," Wheeljack says.

"Why didn't you bring her here and then retrieve what Starscream stole?" I ask.

We hear a low groan and turn around to see Tracy start to come to. Wheeljack turns on his holoform. It stands next to the bed.

"Ratchet, don't yell at Wheeljack, this was my fault. I was so focused on getting the item back that I put my health at risk. I guess my stubborn streak got the best of me," Tracy says as June helps her sit up.

"Tracy, we are glad that you're alight sweetie, but in the future try to not act like your father," June says.

"Great, so Matias is my dad, and that is one of the qualities I got from him great," Tracy mumbles.

Tracy's POV

"What was that?" Ratchet asks.

"Nothing. Can I leave now?" I reply.

"Not yet. We need to wait for Agent Fowler to return with your tetanus shot," June says.

"I got one when I turned 12, so I can't get sick from that cut Starscream gave me," I say.

"I also asked him to stop at the local diner to get some food," June smirks after hearing my stomach growl.

"Yeah, I haven't eaten much today," I say, blushing.

"When was the last time you ate?" Ratchet asks.

"I had breakfast this morning before my friends, and I left Michigan. I did have some trail mix while we were stuck in that traffic jam while we drove through Denver," I answer.

"That would explain why your blood sugar is low," Ratchet says.

"Didn't you stop for lunch?" June asks.

"Yes, but I wasn't hungry. I guess I got frustrated that we kept running into construction no matter how many times we reset our GPS in our cars to give us a new route to get around it. We just drove into another construction zone, or everyone else on the road forgot how to drive, and we got stuck in a traffic jam due to an accident," I reply.

"Tracy, I can understand why you got frustrated, but that isn't an excuse not to eat," June says.

"I know," I sigh.

Wheeljack's POV

An hour or so later, Ratchet let Tracy leave the medical bay. She is riding on my shoulder. As we enter the main room, Bulk walks up with Ricky sitting on his shoulder. Doc is there too. His human partner, Tracy's uncle Matias and Jack's mom, June, are on his shoulder.

"I'm glad both of you are safe," Matias says.

"Thanks, Wheeljack was about to give me a ride to my apartment," Tracy says.

"Patricia, you can't go back because the elevator isn't working, remember?" Matias says.

"I know, but I need to stop by the museum first," Tracy says.

"Why?" Ricky asks.

"I need to get my schedule from my boss," Tracy says.

"Don't forget your crutches, and this to keep that cut on your arm clean," Matias says.

"I can't get sick from the cut, so I don't need that. I already know that I need to keep the area dry for 24 hours. That's why it's wrapped up," Tracy says.

"True, but afterward, you need to keep it clean to prevent it from getting infected," Doc says.

"I suggest that you go see Hazel at The Compassionate Couch to talk about the accident," Matias says.

"Uncle Matias, how is talking about it supposed to stop the nightmares or flashbacks? It's not like Hazel will listen to me anyway." Tracy snaps as she quickly stands up.

Tracy's POV

I realize that I move a tad too fast when a dizzy spell hits me like a truck. I'm able to catch myself by grabbing onto the handle of one of Wheeljack's swords.

"You okay, partner?" Wheeljack asks.

"Partner?" Ratchet, June and my uncle said in shock.

"I'm fine, Wheeljack. I moved a bit too fast, that's all,"

"Wheeljack, I'm glad you've decided to become Tracy's guardian," Optimus says as he enters the room.

"Let's not jump the gun here, chief," Wheeljack says.

"True, besides by 'partner' all Wheeljack meant that we are friends and teammates, right?"

"Right, that's what I meant," Wheeljack says.

"Regardless of the term the two of you go with, the matter of your and Richard's safety remains," Optimus says.

"Optimus, please call me Ricky. I don't like Richard, especially after Vince and his friends kept calling me Mouseard," Ricky says.

"Wheeljack, you will keep an eye on Tracy and Ricky," Optimus says.

"So, that means I can come with you if Wheeljack has to follow Optimus' order, right?" Ricky says.

"Fine, you can come," I sigh.

"Rickard, Patricia, before you leave, there is something that I need to tell the two of you," Uncle Matias says.
