Okay, so the last chapter was a little long, but I hope to have the story finished soon and onto the Age of Extinction story line. I hope I can get the story lined up to where it needs to go in order to set it up for AOE. Keep reading and find out where Nova's adventures take her to next.

The next morning, Nova was brushing her long dark blue hair when she heard a talk show on the TV. "What are you watching?" she asked Sam as he sat on the couch in his pajamas and slippers. "Shh, it's the O'Reilly show. He's interviewing Simmons" Sam said, and Nova sat next to him in her white fuzzy slippers, pink cotton pajamas and a white robe. "Since when did you have pajamas here?" Sam asked looking at her funny. "I can change my appearance at will remember. Hologram!" she emphasized by changing herself into a pair of skintight jeans, loose grey shirt with the words "ARMY" in black bold letters and combat boots. "See, I can wear anything I want. It's pretty impressive." Nova said and changed back into her pajamas. Sam shook his head and turned back to the TV.

"My next guest is a former American Intelligence operative who has dared to speak out regarding our alleged military alliance with what many describe as a group of extraterrestrial mercenaries. He is the author of the bestselling book Code Name Hero. Former special agent, Seymour Simmons"

"Bill, big fan, great to be here"

"Now, Agent Simmons, you would have us believe that it is in our best interest to formally take sides in this so-called alien civil war?"

"Well, the other side wanted to spank us for breakfast, so I wouldn't really exactly call it a toss-up, these Decepticons are lethal."

"But polls show half the world would feel safer with the Autobots completely gone. Get them out of here! We don't need them here!"

"I feel safer when I sleep with a hand grenade, doesn't mean I'm always right."

"That just means you're stupid. Geesh, it's a wonder this guy hasn't blown himself up yet." Wheelie commented and Nova tossed a pillow at him while shushing him.

"Now, agent, here at The Factor we have obtained documents that show you were fired…."

"Down sized bill, budget cuts. Chaz out…."

"Your psych evaluation reports severe delusional tendencies"

"This is ambush journalism. You want the truth about the alien alliance? Buy my book! Buy my book! Before it's too late people... you want a piece of me bill? GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!"

By that time Sam had muted and picked up the phone. "Now, make sure he knows that if he tries to pull anything funny or try and fry me again, I'm going to blow him to pieces. Just so you know" said Nova and walked out of the room with her robe trailing behind her.

Sam and Bee shared a look before he called Simmons.

"What kid?"

"I called you because the Decepticons are back. I want to know why they're killing humans and I need your help."

"They're back? Well that's good for business."

"What if I told you I know a 50-year-old alien secret that nobody ever told you?"

"Do not tempt my addiction. I have gone through withdrawal kid. (Whispers) Dutch is this line secure…What kind of secret?"

"Apollo, moon, aliens, cover up, future tech, assassination, that kind of stuff."

"Oh….Apollo"

"So, should I send Bee?"

"I'll be ready in 10"

And he hung up while Nova was standing off to the side with Bee as they were standing in Holoform mode. "How bad is this going to be?" she asked looking at her boyfriend. "About as bad as usual with Simmons around, are you okay? You have been on edge for the last few days, and it is really starting to worry me. What happened to my Nova Star?" Bee asked and she sighed. "I just have a lot of stuff on my mind." She said hoping that it would drop but he was persistent, so he looked at her like he did not believe her, and she groaned. "Fine, but we can't discuss it out in the open. I'll tell you on the way to pick up Simmons." She said and changed into a pair of jeans, boots, a white camisole, and a black leather jacket over it. The jacket had an Autobot insignia on the left shoulder while her right shoulder had her name written in Cybertronian and on the front it had her name in cursive just over the front pocket with a little star decal next to it.

"Coming handsome?" she asked and the two left together to pick up the former agent.

An hour later

The freight elevator comes up to Sam's floor and Simmons is standing there trying to look all cool. "Tell Megatron "Let's tango" and Nova laughed. He picked up his briefcase and his buddy, Dutch, followed with a similar briefcase.

"So, Simmons, I see you've done well for yourself" Nova commented, and Dutch looked at her funny. "Yeah he made money telling the world about us" Bee said, and Simmons took off his glasses and smiled. "Yes and I have done very well for myself. What happened to your brother's girlfriend?" Simmons asked getting set up in the apartment. "She wanted to get away from the constant danger, so she broke up with him. Dutch is it?" Nova asked looking at the blonde man standing off to the side of Simmons. "Yes." He said curiously and she smiled. "I haven't formally introduced myself, Nova Prime. Daughter of Optimus Prime" she said extending her hand. "It is a pleasure to meet you" he said in his thick accent and Simmons rolled his eyes. "Hey, stop flirting with Dutch, I thought you had a boyfriend already?" Simmons asked with a smile as he was typing in the computer. "I was not flirting, just being nice" Nova said and stuck her tongue out at him. "Still the same kid I met when I was still with S7. Ah the good ole days" he said, and she smiled.

"Yeah, that was when you decided to rip my family from our home, and destroyed my mother's prized flowers, AND my dad's freshly finished lawn. It took him forever to finish that thing and you and your thugs came in and ruined it all" Nova ranted and the whole room looked at her funny. "What? It's the truth. Oh! Also, you tazed me!" she said added Simmons shook his head with a smile before helping Dutch set the rest of the computers up. Sam walks back in the room hanging up the phone and sighing. "I have talked to Bruce, my boss, and he said he would bring over some files after he was released from the hospital. Apparently after Laser-beak decided to blow up my office Bruce needed some stiches and his hand wrapped. What are we talking about out here?" Sam asked and Nova smiled, "Nothing, just messing with Simmons. By the way fro head (Simmons looks over with a look of hurt on his face) I could seriously hurt you now if you ever decided to make a repeat of that night." Nova said as her eyes flashed dark blue. He shook his head before going back to his work. Sam shook his head as he walked away to help with the set up while muttering something about crazy sisters.

Nova went up to the balcony and watched them work as she kept hearing this ringing in her ears.

"What is going on?" she muttered and adjusted her audio settings from her phone before she could hear the voices of Optimus and Sentinel. "Interesting, I didn't know I could do that" she smiled and continued to listen.

Sentinel: So majestic and peaceful this planet. Unlike the final days of Cybertron.

Optimus: I've wondered what might have been if you had fought the final battle, instead of me.

Sentinel: Never mourn the past young warrior, thanks to you our race survives. And you have a family. Nova is a powerful femme

Optimus: Yes, she is. She is a skilled fighter, and I am proud of her for becoming a wonderful leader. (hears gears moving and feels a tug on her spark. He removed the matrix of leadership from his spark chamber.) You were out leader, Sentinel. It is your right to lead us again.

Sentinel: in a world I do not know, I am no longer your teacher Optimus, you are mine.

Optimus puts the matrix back into his spark chamber and Nova breathes a sigh of relief.

The transmission stops and her ears pop before she looks up to see everyone gathered around a crude investigation briefing.

Bee had stood to his full height and was crouching down to the group to hear what was going on. She spotted Simmons walking across the room without his leather jacket on and he started talking. "You've got to break this case down. What we have here is an astronaut epidemic.(goes to cork board) MIA, dead, died in a car accident, killed, DOA, car death, it's like these guys can't drive. They can fly into outer space, but they can't drive a car." Simmons said and then Sam opens the door to the apartment to see his boss with some files and tape across his nose. "Procured your information Witwicky." He said trying to squeeze through the gap in the door. "Thank you, Bruce." Sam said and tried to close the door, but Bruce shoved his foot in the way. "Now, let me see one right now. One time." He said and Sam sighed before looking at Nova on the balcony. "What are you looking at me for? Ask Bee he's the one in full bot mode over there" she called and sighed when she realized what he wanted. "Fine. But you owe me Sam" she said and her holoform disappeared before her bot mode transformed where it was sitting in the corner. She was a thinner femme so she could fit next to Bee. "Happy?" she asked crossing her arms and Bee chuckled. "Oh, you stop it" and he kept laughing at her. Sam shook his head at the two and turned back to Bruce. "Lucky for you I am letting you see two, quick" Sam said and undid the chain on the door so he could let him in. Once Bruce came in the room Simmons and Dutch looked at him as he walked in like he was not supposed to be there, which he wasn't. Sam just continued what he was doing and started reading off the papers that were given to him.

"Lunar reconnaissance orbiter, it says NASA launched it in 2009, see forensics show that Wang may have messed with the code, preventing it from mapping the far side of the moon, which is also the dark side." Sam started to say but then Bruce started geeking out over the robots in the room. Nova rolled her optics and sat on the floor next to Bumble bee with her legs crossed Indian style so Bruce could check her out too. "That is so awesome" he mused before Simmons started to open his big mouth. "They infiltrate us, intimidate us, coerce us to do their dirty work, and once their done, a double tap to the cerebellum." He said and Sam spoke up from a spot next to the window. "So, humans are working for the Decepticons?" "I don't think this is about the Decepticons looking for something on the moon. I think it's about something they want to hide." Simmons said and Bruce started walking around Bee like a boxer facing his opponent. "Come to daddy, come on throw down" he said, and Bee shook his finger at him. "I wouldn't threaten him" Nova said from next to bee and Bruce ignored her. He started kicking and punching the air before Bee engaged his battle mask and spoke up. "Did you eat a lot of paint chips as a kid?" he asked, and Simmons spoke up from his chair "He's a freak." And Nova nodded. Bee started standing up and activated his cannon before pinning Bruce to the ground as he laughed. "I'm ticklish" he said while Bee was holding his cannon on him as it spun but never powered up. Simmons turned to him and got his attention. "Sir, we have a pretty high-level alien intel confab here that I don't think you're cleared for. Errand boy" he said, and Nova sniggered from her spot on the floor. "Yeah, your right (Bruce gets off the floor and starts making his way out) Those are amazing robots, thank you so much for this and…." He never got to finish before Sam closed the door on him. Brains transforms from his laptop mode on the table and starts complaining. "I'm smoking over here, downloading missing Russian cosmonauts. Turns out the soviets cancelled a manned mission to the moon. The moon in 1972, and two of their cosmonauts went into hiding in America and I just found them alive." He said as he humped the printer and it spat out the information he gathered. "You're a genius brains" Wheelie said, and Nova heard the door open upstairs. "Oh, Carly's home" Nova said, and Bee freaked out by standing up all the way, knocking into the chandelier and before he could catch it, it fell to the floor in a loud crash. Nova sat there on the floor shaking her head as he covered his face in embarrassment.

"Hi" was all Sam could say after all that and she looked mad. "Would someone care to tell me what Is going on?" she asked in her British accent. "Who are you?" Simmons asked intrigued. "Who are you?" Carly asked disgusted and a little annoyed. "Who am i? Who is that? Dutch frisk her!" he called to his faithful manservant. "Certainly" he said from his spot by the wall. Before he even got close Carly stopped him, "Don't touch me" she said, and Dutch backed off. "Sam?" she asked looking for an explanation. "Angel, I…I was working, I'm sorry about this." Sam struggled to say as she walked up the stairs to her room. "Great were homeless" wheelie said from off to the side. "She lives here? Wow. (turns to Dutch) you had your chance to frisk her" Simmons said. "I have a girlfriend" Dutch said, and Simmons looked at him surprised. "Oh, really what's her name?" "India" Dutch said slowly, and Nova giggled.

She decided they didn't need her full form anymore, so she transformed back down into her Lamborghini mode and stepped out of the driver's seat before shutting the door. She could hear faint conversation with Sam and Carly, but she didn't want to pry so she stayed out of it. She looked at Bee and told him that she him to turn his holoform on over their bond. He nodded and his holoform flickered to life Infront of his bot mode. Simmons looked between the two of them and smiled. "Are you two dating now? Weird" he said, and Nova rolled her eyes. "Grow up Simmons" she said and the two of them walked away. They stood by the window and Nova noticed a silver car sitting out on the curb in-front of the apartment. "I have a very bad feeling about that car down there" she muttered, and Bee looked outside before looking at her concerned. "What are you feeling?" he asked putting a hand on her arm. "I feel….anger….and when I try and analyze it all I hear is static. Like the Alspark is being blocked. I can't describe it." She said rubbing her head and then suddenly Carly and Sam were downstairs, and Carly was opening the door to the car. Her eyes opened wide when a transmission played through her head. "Do not tell the boy who I am, or your little friend is history" and then the door slammed shut and Carly drove off. "Carly's in trouble" she said, and Bee looked at her funny. "How?" he asked, and she looked at him in tears. "I know who that car is, but I can't tell Sam because they'll kill Carly" she said, and Bee wrapped his arms around her small frame while she buried her head in his chest.

Simmons had somehow made his way downstairs and had draped an arm around his shoulders. Nova spotted a red, and a silver sports car pull up and sighed. "Duty calls." And they let go of each other before kissing quickly and disappearing into their bot forms.

Before Nova could take off with the rest of the group she received a transmission,

"Nova, I need you to return to base" it was Optimus and he sounded serious. "I will be there shortly. (Turns to bee as they are standing in the apartment in bot form) I have to see Optimus. Be careful, okay?" she asked bee and he nodded before she transformed down and went into the freight elevator. As she was leaving Dutch looked up at Bee confused and shook his head before continuing to pack up the computers.

On the way to the NEST base

Nova was listening to some music on low just incase a new transmission was heard over the comms until she encountered a roadblock of black vehicles and a rough looking green truck. She skidded to a halt and had a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach. "I don't like this at all" she said and tried to turn around, but the black cars had surrounded her. The green truck started to shift and transformed into none other than Megatron. "Ole bucket head is still alive then. Great" she grumbled and accessed her comms. "If anyone can hear me, I am going to need back up. Megatron is back" she said and all she got was static. "Slaggit" she muttered so, she used her Alspark abilities and sent a message to her dad. She needed back up and fast. She felt a sense of panic rush through her bond with Optimus and he informed her that he was on the way. She figured it might take him a little bit because she was on the other side of town, so she transformed and activated her battle mask just like her dad. She transformed her left hand into a sword and the right one into a cannon. "Megatron" she said, and he snarled with a grin. "Look at you, the young prime all grown up. I am not here to hurt you femme." He said in his gravely voice, "Really? Because the goon squad makes me feel a little different. What do you want Megatron?" Nova asked not letting her guard down. "I am sure you sensed already that Sentinel Prime is not who he says he is." Megatron said and she raised an optic ridge (eyebrow) "So what? Do you really expect me to believe anything you have to say? You are a Decepticon and the one who killed Optimus two years ago. Why should I trust you?" she asked, and he sneered. "Because I have information about his plan. Those rods you got from the moon; they are not for transporting refugees. You are all fools if you think he is on your side. He will reveal his true colors in time. But be prepared to fight someone you thought an ally. I am sure you called Optimus already so I will make this brief. Watch your back brat, you might just find a sword in it" Megatron snarled before transforming and driving away with the cars behind him. Once they all disappeared, she deactivated her weapons and battle mask and stood there confused. Shortly after he left, she heard the engine and screaming breaks of her dad's alt-mode before the sound of a rushed transformation and footsteps. "Are you alright Nova?" he asked coming in-front of her and she looked up at him, because he was still much taller than her, and she nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine. It was so weird. He had his whole goon squad with him and never even engaged in a fight. I was battle ready, but he was oddly calm." She said and he kneeled to her level and put a hand on her shoulder. "What did he say?" Optimus asked and she sighed. "Just confirming my feelings about Sentinel. He is not an Autobot as he claims. He is a Decepticon and Megatron of all bots was trying to warn us. Weird" she said, and he looked like he was thinking. "No matter what Megatron says, we cannot believe him. My brother has a habit of twisting the truth and sewing doubt in the minds of his enemies. But it does seem strange that he would warn us about his ally. We must not share this with the rest of the team, let us be on guard for now until there is cause to share our feelings. Are you going to be alright?" he asked, and she nodded. "Yes, I will be fine dad. Thanks for coming to my rescue." She said and he nodded with a rare smile. "You are most welcome. I am always here if you need me" he said, and she smiled before they transformed down and headed to Base.

NEST base

Once they were through the gate and into the hangar, Nova noticed Director mearing standing on the metal catwalk that was along the wall where the offices were, and she was looking right at Nova. "Uh, did I pull you away from something important?" she asked Optimus over the comms. "No, nothing is more important than you and your safety. She will simply have to be okay with that. You come first" and after that he transformed and stood at the catwalk before Nova transformed next to him and smirked at Mearing. "Well, hello Director" she said, and Mearing glared at her. "What gives you the right to call Optimus away from base like that? He was in the middle of an important briefing with Colonel Morshower, and he leaves because he said you needed help with a problem. I am sure that was something that could have been handled without interrupting the commander of the Autobots." Mearing lectured with her arms across her chest and Nova looked to Optimus for permission and once he nodded and stepped back, she looked back at the Director and got closer. "To answer your question, ma'am, I have every right to "pull him away" as you say for one, he is my commander and I am obliged to inform him of a Decepticon sighting, and two, I am his daughter and when I need help, I always come first. He values family above everything else. Thirdly, I am a Prime. I deserve respect for that title, no matter your clearance level or rank, I still out rank you. So do not try and be my boss because you will not succeed. The only bot who has any power over me is standing over there. Thank you very much" Nova said before walking off and high fiving Iron-hide as she passed him. All the bots and humans had stopped what they were doing to listen to the femme tear into the director and put her in her place. As soon as Nova was gone the whole room erupted in cheers and clapping before mearing huffed and disappeared into her office. Nova stood at the other side of the hangar where ratchet's med bay was, and she smirked at all the cheering. "Did that feel good femme?" Ratchet asked her as he was lifting her on his hydraulic bed so he can do a check up on her.

"Yes, it did. Someone needed to put her in her place, and I am so glad I got dad's permission to do it. I have been wanting to do that since the day I met her!" she said, and ratchet chuckled before tapping on her spark chamber and letting it open before pulling out his diagnostic equipment. "So, what are we checking on today, Doc?" she asked. "We are making sure there is no damage or side effects of the Alspark radiation to your frame. I want to keep an eye on how much energy you use and make sure that you are not hurting yourself. Using too much Alspark energy could damage some key systems that you might need to finish your mission. The Primes would not be too happy if you couldn't carry out your destiny because you are playing fast and loose with your abilities." Ratchet said and she sighed before letting him do his job. "Let me know when you're done. I'm going to take a nap" she said and off lined her optics before drifting off into dreamland.

Little did she know that she was about to be thrown into a battle for the fate of the world….again.

Alright, I know It has been a while since my last update so I will tell you what I have been doing since.

I quit my job at the nursing home I was at and am in a medical clinic working for a native American tribe, and I am working in the lab. I am one of the Phlebotomists that draw blood and run tests on samples. I am learning so much more than what I was doing in the nursing home, and I am loving the environment. Everyone is so nice and not crazy, well at least not as bad as my last job. And I am going to be going into the lab technician class hopefully in the fall but we will see.

So, if I drop off the face of the earth again, you guys know why. Thank you everyone for being such loyal readers and leaving me some great reviews. I will try and crank out more chapters as the days go on now that I have a space I can write and not be interrupted. Thanks!

This was 7 pages by the way! That's insane!
