It will take place during the More Than Meets The Eye timeline in the IDW Transformers Comics. If yall haven't read them I strongly encourage you do cause they are awesome! I kid you not!

I'll have the first chapter posted this coming week so be looking out for it! For now, enjoy this chapter!

We pull up at my house after a long silent trip back. Jazz parks inside the garage while the twins stay outside. I can practically feel the tension rolling off Jazz, not that I blame him. I made the stupid idea to sneak off and now I gotta face the consequences. We go to open the door but mine is locked. "I'd like Ta talk wit Averie." He says sternly but respectfully to my mom.

Mom nods and before leaving says,"Go easy on her. As the adult I should have said no so don't blame her."

When she goes into the house Jazz opens his door so I take that as my Que to get out. He transforms after I'm out and kneels down and just stares at me.

I shift under his intense gaze and finally say,"Go ahead. Yell at me. I deserve it."

I hear him sigh through his vents and he says,"What we're Ya thinkIn'? Ya know it's dangerous for Ya Ta be caught alone. What do ya think would a happened with Starscream if we hadn't of gotten ta ya in time? What's worse is ya could have gotten your mom killed, and for what?."

I flinch at the mention of my mom. It honestly never crossed my mind that we would run into a Con and that she could have been hurt or worse...now I feel even worse. "I'm sorry." I mutter quietly.

Jazz sighs and asks,"Why did ya do it Sweetspark?"

"I-I just wanted it to be me and mom. We haven't had that since I met you guys and I missed it. I didn't think we'd run into Starscream." I explain.

"Do ya have any idea how worried and scared I was?" He asks.

My eyes water as I look at him pitifully and say,"I'm sorry."

He sits down and grabs me and brings me to his face and gently hugs me. "I was so scared. I didn't know if I'd make it in time, and I can't bear the thought of loosing ya. My spark couldn't take it. I love ya so much darlin'. So so much."

I hug his face as best I can and say,"I love you too."

I can feel him smile at that. He pulls back enough to look at me and says,"Don't ya dare scare me like that again."

"Does this mean I'm forgiven?" I ask.

He leans in and gently kisses the top of my head and says,"Always darlin'."

I lean in and place a kiss on his chin and give a smile. "I'm sorry you had to save me again."

"Darlin' I'll always come Ta your rescue." He says softly.

"You ever get tired of having to stay with me all the time?" I ask.

"Of course not darlin'. " he replies softly.

"So, I never did ask what you think of me changing...you like or hate the idea?" I ask.

"I hate that Ya have Ta go through dis, but there is one positive...I get Ta love Ya properly." He says.

"And what exactly do you mean by that?" I ask a little weary.

His optics widen at how that sounded and starts stuttering,"No no! I didn'...I mean...I...ah frag." He drops his head in embarrassment.

I let out a laugh and reach out and pet his cheek. "It's ok. I know that's not what you meant. I didn't mean to embarrass you."

He purrs at my touch and says,"What I meant Ta say was I could give Ya proper kisses and hugs. Do Ya think I'm selfish fur thinkin ' this is somewhat a good thing?"

"No your not. Honestly being able to properly hug and kiss you sounds nice. I just wish I didn't have to go through the pain to do it. I've been human all my life. How am I supposed to live as a completely different species?!" I exclaim.

"Ya won't be alone in dis darlin'. All of us will help ya and show ya the ropes. I'll help ya every step of da way. I promise." He replies.

I've been so stressed out about this whole thing but knowing that the bots, especially Jazz, have my back makes it easier. Oh, speaking of.

"Jazz?" I ask.

"Yea Sweetspark?" He asks.

"Thank you for saving me from Starscream." I say.

He lets out a light growl at the Cons name. "Should a ripped him apart. How dare he say that."

That last part he says so quietly that I'm probably not supposed to hear, but I do. "What did he say?"

Jazz seems to go into a daze, and looks to be thinking of something.

~Jazz & Starscream's Fight~

After getting the call from Averie's mom Jazz and the twins were quick to respond and made it to their position in record time. The sight that greets them when they arrive nearly makes their energon boil. Starscream is chasing after Averie, while looking very malicious.

The twins go to chase after him when they are stopped by Jazz. "You two go and check on her mom. Starscreams mine." Jazz orders with a growl. The twins notice he spoke without his accent, which shows just how angry Jazz is.

Not wanting to get him angry at them they obey and run towards the car.

Jazz then makes a quick dash towards Starscream and just as he's about to grab Averie he tackles him to the ground.

Starscream is stunned by the surprise attack but then smirks when he sees who his attacker is. He stands just as Jazz does and says,"Well if it isn't the saboteur, or should I call you the Guardians bodyguard?"

Jazz just hisses in reply, too angry to form words.

"Your quite protective of the fleshing, more so than the others. Don't tell me that you've developed feelings for the little Guardian?" Starscream asks snidely.

Jazz snarls threateningly at the seeker in warning.

Starscream just laughs mockingly at the obvious answer. "Oh this is too good. Even for you sentimental Autobots this is too much. I'm sure Megatron would be very interested in hearing this little news."

A loud and menacing snarl is Starscreams only warning before he is tackled to the ground. Before he has a chance to recuperate he is then continually punched in the faceplates over and over until his face is a mess.

Starscream has no choice but to take the beating given to him by the enraged saboteur. After a little while Jazz begins to lose one force behind his punches so Starscream uses that opportunity to shove Jazz off him, making him fly a few feet away.

Starscream quickly stands and jumps off the ground while transforming and flying away.

Jazz snarls at the loss, but once the seeker is out of sight he turns his attention to something more important. To the one who holds his spark,and nearly scared it into stopping by running off.

~AVERIE POV~

My face scrunches up as I see the look of trouble that crosses Jazz's face. He still hasn't answered so I ask,"Jazz?"

He snaps out of his daze and says,"Yea?"

"I asked what did Starscream say?" I ask.

He shakes his head and says,"Nuthin darlin. Forget I said anythin'."

"Jazz?" I ask apprehensively.

He leans down and places a gentle kiss on top of my head and says,"It's okay Darlin'. Don't worry 'bout it."

I huff at his evasion but decide to let it go. Without warning a sharp pain attacks my head, which makes me grit my teeth and hiss.

Unfortunately Jazz hears the noise and immediately goes into worry mode. "What's wrong? Ya okay?!"

Hoping to evade I say,"I'm fine."

"Av.."

"No really I'm fine. It's just all the excitement of the day has caught up with me is all. I'll be fine once I calm down." I retort.

Jazz gives me a serious look as he says,"You remember what Ratchet said don't you?"

"Yeah but I'm not hurting that bad. It's just a headache." I argue.

"But isn't that how your pains always start, is a headache?" He asks knowingly.

"Please don't tell him. I don't wanna cut my trip short. Please." I plead while giving my most pitiful face.

Jazz sighs at my begging and says,"...should you start hurting more or your headache doesn't go away I'm calling Ratchet. Deal?"

"Deal." I reply.

~TIME SKIP~

After my talk with Jazz, Sides and Sunny came back into the garage where we hung out for a while. Afterwards I apologized to my mom for putting her through that. Being a mom she was quick to accept and forget the incident. It's past midnight as I wake up from sleeping...natures calling.

After taking care of business I walk back towards my bed when I'm suddenly hit with another headache. Thinking it will dissipate like the others have eventually done I wait for it to pass...but it doesn't. The longer I sit on my bed the more it starts to hurt.

Suddenly a sharp pain travels from my head to my chest,making me let out a gasp of shock and pain. The only thought I have is to get to Jazz. Normally it would be my mom, but I know this is a problem she can't help me with.

I slowly walk across the floor towards the door when another attack hits, making me fall to my knees.

"Ahhhhh." I whine, too quietly for anyone to hear. The pain takes my breath away, so yelling for someone seems impossible right now. As the attacks continue to hit I try to think of a way to get someone's attention.

I crawl the few inches to my door and then proceed to bang my fist on it. The noise is loud enough to stir my mom from sleep and I see her walk up the stairs to investigate. When she sees me she quickly runs over. "Averie! What's wrong?! Do I need to call 9-1-1?"

I take a deep breath and manage to mutter out,"Tell...Jazz."

She nods and runs down the stairs to do as I've asked. After what feels like forever she runs back up and says,"He said to get you to him and he's gonna get you back to the Autobot base so their medic can help you. Come on sweetie." She grabs my arms and helps me stand up.

We make it down the steps as best we can, with me grabbing the railing for dear life. We make to the garage door but as mom opens it I let out a pained gasp. "Ahhhh!"

"AVERIE!" The twins and Jazz yell in worry. Jazz opens his door as he says,"Get her in!"

Mom quickly places me in his passenger seat and then gets in the drivers seat. After the garage door is opened all three bots drive towards what I assume to be a military base so we can be picked up.

I hear everyone giving me words of comfort and reassurance as we drive towards pickup.
