The Autobots have been on Earth for a very long time, protecting the energon rich planet and it's inhabitants from the shadows. Since their home planet Cybertron was all but dead, earth had become their adoptive home world.
Exploring the watery globe was a pastime the Autobots tended to do when off duty or not in a skirmish with the Decepticons. The different cultures and organic life was something of a wonderland. Interacting with humans was strictly off limits of course but that didn't do much to dissuade them from appearing in places that allowed vehicle mode. The human holograms each Cybertronian possessed helped with interaction when their was no other alternative.
No other Autobot was invested in as much time with human culture than Jazz, second in command. He found humans spectacular. He could relate to them in more ways than one and that is what really drew him in. Being second in command of a faction didn't leave him much downtime but when he was able to slip away for even a few hours, one could find him at drive in movies, parks, the beach, road rallies, desert driving, country roads, concerts and Optimus had even heard of him relaxing in the waterfalls of Colombia.
He stuck to the rule of no interacting with humans (minus the government, senate, White House FBI, CIA, Military and NEST) but it didn't stop him from observing them at close distances. The little squishy creatures had him hooked.
However, it wasn't until the Christmas time had rolled around in New York that he met the first human to ever make him break that particular rule.
Decepticon activity was usually kept down during the cooler months and that meant Autobots were allowed time off. Most went off to the sunny beaches of South America or the lush watery life of the Caribbean. Others stayed in the base or ventured out to the colder parts of the world. Jazz and his friend Bumblebee had decided to head over to New York City and explore the land where dreams came true.
Some parts were of the city like Queens were too icy or packed with snow to risk driving in. So they opted to roam around Manhattan to see the gorgeous lights. Bumblebee was absolutely stunned at the display of glitz and glamour. The people around them were doing all sorts of things, so many bags filled their hands. The young scout quietly laughed as they bustled in and out of so many stores.
The two continued to talk and gaze at the wondrous sights until a strange signal appeared on Jazz's scanners. He seemed confused at the disturbance and opted to leave it be but as it grew more apparent he had no choice but to pursue it.
"Hey Bee, you picking up that signal?"
A few beeps of confirmation and the two turned a block to begin the chase of the rapid moving signal. Jazz decided to contact the base just to make sure that if cons were behind this then things in the city would be getting rowdy.
:Jazz to base:
:This is Ratchet. What do you want?:
:Always the happy mech doc...Bee and I picked up a signal and are currently in pursuit. Might be Decepticon:
:A signal? Record the signature and send it to me for analysis. If they are Decepticon do not engage with humans around! Especially in that city!:
:Gotcha doc bot. Jazz out:
Ending the conversation, the two Autobots finally made it to the source of the signal. They parked a few feet from a beautiful white building so tall that it seemed to reach the clouds! The windows were so tall and immaculate that Bumblebee could only assume the richest of human society could be there.
There was a red carpet that was laid down the steps and countless people were going up them. Cameras flashed and extremely fancy cars were pulling up. What was going on here? It was as if celebrities were somewhere around.
Jazz gazed curiously as luxuriously dressed fleshies came out of the 'million' dollar cars. The mech found himself invested in what they were wearing. Something big must have been going down if people were appearing so well put together.
"Wonder what could be going on..."
Suddenly the signal had come into full view as a jet black limousine pulled up. It was definitely coming from there!
The white and gold tuxedo wearing chauffeur exited the drivers seat and proceeded to open one of the rear doors. Bumblebee went deathly silent as a white heel stepped out the vehicle, his engines slightly revved as a curvaceous figure fully appeared.
A pearl colored evening gown tightly gripped the hourglass shape of the dark brown skinned female. The elegant body hugging, off the shoulder evening dress went extremely well with her matching elbow length gloves. No curve went neglected in the outfit. Jazz's gaze went upward toward her long, raven Gilda styled curly black hair.
Jazz had seen PLENTY of attractive females of this species but this one...was like nothing he had ever seen before. As she turned around to smile at the cameras, his non existent breath had left his frame. Chocolate eyes hit his very core, she held such a seductive look! Her makeup made her seem angelic in that winter snow. What a show stopper!
Behind her came out four gentlemen dressed just as nicely in fancy suits and ties. They all seemed to laugh with one another as they climbed the carpeted stone steps.
Out of all things he didn't fail to notice that the signal was coming from the woman who had captured both mech's sparks for a moment.
:Ratchet we just found where the signal is coming from...and boy is she a character:
