Sorry for any typos or stupid errors!

We didn't manage to get out to retrieve Sam's grandfathers glasses. I was worried and hoped that Optimus, Ratchet, Ironhide or Jazz would find them. If I knew where they were. Last time we was in this damn S7 vehicle, Optimus Prime had stopped them in less than a heartbeat. Its been over two hours and I didn't even know where we was going and Optimus and the others hadn't shown up. Maybe they was looking for Bee? Or the glasses. Or maybe they didn't care about us and what was going to happen to us? No that was stupid thinking. Them 'Bots had come all the way from Cyberton wherever that was, just to stop Megatron from getting his hands on the cube. Of course they cared. I don't really know why, technically were just small aliens to them. They shouldn't care, but I think they do.

I rested my head in my hands and watched out the window, just as I thought I could get some rest as day light was showing up i was jerked away by a pair of hands. Sam had awoken my small slumber and I followed him and Mikalea into a chopper.

When we climbed in there was two other people around our age maybe older sat next to each other. One was tall and blonde and fairly tanned the other was a little on the over weight side and wore glasses. The chopper opposite us was full of men all in the same uniform, some said U.S.A.F on the back. Us Air Force soilder was here!? That didn't make much sense at all.

We climbed in and sat opposite the two people. Some S7 guy handed is three a headset to where while in flight. I didn't know why we needed to be in a helicopter, maybe we was flying over water or it was quicker than a car.

I smiled a little at the blonde opposite "Hi" I said through the little mic and it sounded so weird to hear my voice through the headset.

The girl smiled and replied "Alright" She was Australian and I grinned a little I loved Australian accents.

"Im Clara"

"Maggie" She smiled "Your British?" She asked.

"Yeah..I am. Your Australian?" I asked.

She nodded and smiled.

Sam then butted into our conversation "Your accents sounds completely the same"

I groaned "They do not!"

Maggie smiled "Loads have people have thought I was English. Its annoying"

The guy next to her laughed a little "Glenn! Shut up."

I looked at 'Glenn' "What's he laughing about?"

Maggie rolled her eyes "His always saying I am British, he apparently likes the accent"

Glenn glared at Maggie a little "Maggie.." He looked at me "What- Its a cool and weird way to say things. Like the way you Lego and aluminum"

I winced a little "Why do you say aluminium like that? It sounds so weird...and you say Lego like laygo..its does not sound right."

Glenn laughed "Well aluminum only has one 'i' so I don't know why you say" Glenn put on his best British accent "Aluminium"

We all burst out laughing as Glenn tried to say Aluminium how I say it.

"So, What'd they get you for?" She looked at us three.

"I bought a car. Turned out to be an alien robot." Sam replied.

"Wow..." Glenn said quietly.

"Who knew?" Sam laughed.

"How about you?" Mikalea asked.

"Well I was, well a team was detecting hacks. I found this strange noise for whatever hacked air force one. Took it to this genius hacker here. And we kinda got caught" Maggie shrugged.

"Did you find anything? In the noise, the er alien speaking?" I asked.

Glenn nodded "It was something about Project Ice-man. And Captain Witwicky"

Sam shifted a little in the sit next to me "Your Grandfather"I said.

"Your Grandfather was Archibald Witwicky?" Glenn asked, Sam just nodded a little.

We nodded not long after and was back in another car. I had no idea where we were. I only saw one sign that said Misson City 20miles but we had turned to other way.

The car stopped on a bridge or something? Stepping out I realized we was at Hoover Dam! Me Sam and Mikalea ran to the path and looked down. If you fell that would sure be a long way too.

As Sam was talking to Mikaleam, Glenn and Maggie. I saw something hanging from Mikalea's bag. I quickly grabbed it and moved away from the group of people. I looked on my hands and recognize that stupid head from that Mini Bot "How...did you even survive?"

It growled a little "The names Frenzy, fleshy"

"Well that's rich, you just called me fleshy" I pouted.

Frenzy squirmed a little "Un hand me, Human!"

"Sure fine!" I hang him over the edge of Hoover Damn and watched his head roll down the side of the wall. "Bye Frenzy" I shrugged and made my way back to the others.

We was then lead down some stairs and was now going in Hoover Dam. I looked up and frowned as we walked over to Seymour Douchy Simmons.

"Hey, kid. I think we got off to a bad start, huh? You must be hungry?You want a latte? HoHo? Double venti macchiato?" I raised my eyebrows a little as he spoke nicely all of a sudden.

"Where's my car?" Sam asked.

"Son, I need you to listen to me very carefully. People can die here. We need to know everything you know. We need to know it now." Some other guy spoke to us.

"Who are you?"I asked.

"Tom Banachek, Im with Sector Seven Advanced Research Division" He said simply.

I nodded a little "Well I know what S.H.E.I.L.D stands for"

Sam gave me a weird look then turned to Banachek "Okay. But first, I'll take my car, my parents. Maybe you should write that down. Oh, and her juvie record. That's got to be gone. Like, forever." Mikalea looked to Sam and smiled.

"Come with me. We'll talk about your car." Banachek turned and stared to walk.

"Thank you." Sam said and gave Simmons a glare as we walked past him.

As we then entered what as what I thought was Hoover Dam, turned out to be Sector Seven as we got lower under ground.

"All right, here's the situation. You've all had direct contact with the NBEs." Banachek spoke to us all.

"NBEs?" One of the soilders asked.

"Non-Biological Extraterrestrials. Try and keep up with the acronyms." Simmons said.

"God I wish Simmons would just disappear" I complained receiving a laugh from the same soilder that asked what a NBE was. "Hi..I'm Clara" I smiled, might as well introduce myself.

"Robert Epps. Or just Epps" He smiled.

Whoever was walking with Epps, another soilder with dark hair and bright eyes then spoke "I'm Major William Lennox, Miss-?"

"Harper...erm Sir" I laughed a little.

They both laughed as I was unaware as if to say Sir or not.

"What you're about to see is totally classified." Someone spoke, I think it was Simmons.

Looking up I froze im my tracks. Stood frozen infront of us was no over than Megatron! He was more evil looking more that Red-Eyes or whatever his real name was.

"Dear God. What is this?" Epps said from behind me.

"We think when he made his approach over the north pole, our gravitational field screwed up his telemetry. He crashed in the ice, probably a few thousand years ago. We shipped him here to this facility in 1934." Banachek said.

"We call him NBE One." Simmons said proudly.

"Well, sir, I don't mean to correct you on everything you think you know, but, I mean, that's Megatron." Sam said.

"He's the leader of the Decepticons." I nodded at a annoyed looking Simmons as Sam corrected him.

"He's been in cryostasis since 1935. Your great-great-grandfather made one of the greatest discoveries in the history of mankind." Banachek said to Sam.

"Fact is, you're looking at the source of the modern age, the microchip, lasers, spaceflight, cars, all reverse-engineered by studying him." Simmons walked up close to me and Sam "NBE One. That's what we call it." He snirred.

"And you didn't think the United States military might need to know that you're keeping a hostile alien robot frozen in the basement?" A voice I didn't recognize spoke. I looked towards the only of the voice and widened my eyes. That was the Secrecty of Defense!

"Until these events, we had no credible threat to national security." Banachek said.

"Well, you got one now." SoD said annoyed.

"So why Earth?" Lennox said looking up to Megatron.

"It's the All Spark." I said not realising I actually spoke allowed.

"All Spark? What is that?" SoD asked.

"Well, yeah, they came here looking for some sort of cube-looking thing. Anyway, Mr. NBE One here, AKA Megatron!" Sam glared at Simmons causing me to laugh "That's what they call him, who's pretty much the harbinger of death, wants to use the Cube to transform human technology to take over the universe. That's their plan." Sam nodded like it was simply and it didn't matter.

"And you're sure about that?" Banachek asked.

"Yeah." Me and Sam said in unison.

Banachek and Simmons shared a look and Sam said "You guys know where it is, don't you?" He smiled a little.

"Follow me."

"You're about to see our crown jewel." Simmons said as we followed them into a bigger room.

I widened my eyes. They before is was this giant cube! It was the All Spark! It was so big Prime would look like an ant next to it. It had all weird symbols and lines all the way around it. I pressumed it was something to do with Cybertonian?

We stood in a smaller room, looking through the window at the cube. I looked at Sam as he looked more amazed than I did.

"Carbon dating puts the Cube here around 10,000 BC. The first Seven didn't find it until 1913. They knew it was alien because of the matching hieroglyphics on the Cube as well as NBE One." I looked at the wall at the 'First Seven'. 7 black and white pictures all lined up. "President Hoover had the dam built around it. Four football fields thick of concrete. A perfect way to hide its energy from being detected by anyone or any alien species on the outside." Banachek informed us.

"Wait, back up. You said the dam hides the Cube's energy. What kind exactly?" Maggie asked.

"Good question." Banachek said.

We followed them through what looked like a vault door. As Me Sam and Mikaela stepped inside the doors was shut behind us.

"Please step inside. They have to lock us in." Banachek informed us.

"Oh, wow. What's that? Freddy Krueger done been up in here or something?" I hear Epps say. I looked to the wall where he was and saw three long marks where a blade or something had been.

"Oh, no, man. Freddy Krueger have four blades, 'that's only three. That's Wolverine! Right? That's Wolverine!" Glenn laughed looking around at everyone, I smiled a little as no one found it fuuny.

"That's very funny." Simmons said. "Anybody have any mechanical devices? BlackBerry? Key alarm? Cell phone?" He asked.

"I got a phone." Glenn said and just handed it to Simmons.

"Nokias are real nasty. You've got to respect the Japanese. They know the way of the samurai." Simmons said as he placed the Nokia inside this clear cube box, that has scratched and dents in it.

We was all handed these funny little goggles and we put them on. I looked beside me at Sam and Mikaela and laughed "We look like- You know the goggles from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory!" Sam and Mikaela both smiled and looked at eachother and laugh.

"We're able to take the Cube radiation and funnel it into that box." Banachek said.

Simmons pulled down a lever and energy ran through some lead (From the All Spark) And into the phone. The Nokia shook then transformed into a horrible little Decepticon!

"Mean little sucker, huh?" Simmons asked. The Nokia shot at the glass and growled at us in Cybertronain.

"That thing is freaky!" I heard Maggie say as it hit the glass by her.

"Kind of like the itty-bitty Energizer Bunny from hell, huh?" Simmons said.

I slumped back a little and Sam raised an eyebrow at me "What's wrong?" He asked.

"If that's what the All Spark can do to a Nokia. Think of what will happen if Megatron or any Decepticon gets there hands on it. All earths machines will be that" I looked at the Nokia that was having a fit.

Sam smiled "Clara don't worry. We are going to give that cube to Optimus. Or he can come to us and then he will sort it out, right?"

I nodded "Yeah..yeah"

"He's breaking the box. " Simmons yelled then killed the angry Nokia.

The lights then started flickering and I heard explosions and shouting. The lights flickered on and I looked at Sam and Mikaela "What was that?"

"Gentlemen, they know the Cube is here." Banachek said.

"Banachek. What's going on?" SoD asked.

"Well, the NBE One hangar has lost power..." He said.

"What?" I heard multiple people say.

"...and the backup generator Is just not gonna cut it." He said.

"Do you have an arms room?" Lennox asked.

"I'll bring security to the..." Banachek was about to say when the lights flicker more and the room vibrated.

"Get everyone to the NBE One chamber now!" Someone shouted as we was pushed and followed the Soildors to what I presumed was the Arms Room.

"Oh God I hope Frenzy didn't do this..." I mumbled.

"The lights are out! Move it! Move it!" I heard someone yell. As all I focused on was running.

"Let's go!" We ran into the arms room which was full of ammo. I caught my breath as I stood with Sam and Mikaela.

"That's good. Get all the ammo you got. Everything you can carry. Bring it." Lennox said to his team.

I looked to Sam "Bee! His gotta know what to do! We have to find him" Sam nodded and me and him rushed over to Simmons who was loading a weapon but as the lights flickered again and more loud noises Simmons dropped it.

"You got to take me to my car. You have to take me to my car." Sam said.

"He's gonna know what to do with the Cube." I quickly added.

"Your car? It's confiscated." Simmons said. He seemed a bit more panicked that snobby now.

"Then unconfiscate it." Sam said.

"We do not know what will happen if we let it near this thing!" Simmons yelled.

"You don't know." I said.

"Maybe you know, but I don't know." Simmons mumbled.

"You just wanna sit here and wait and see what happens?" I asked him.

"I have people's lives at stake here, young Lady" He snapped.

"Take him to his car!" Lennox pushed into Simmons.

"Drop it." I looked around and saw the soilders and S7 agents pointing weapons at each other.

"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Drop your weapon, soldier." Simmons said to Lennox as Lennox had a gun pointed at him.

"There's an alien war going on and you're gonna shoot me?" Simmons said.

"You know, we didn't ask to be here." Lennox said.

"I'm ordering you under S-Seven executive jurisdiction-" Simmons was cut off

"Seven don't exist." Epps spoke.

"Right. And we don't take orders from people that don't exist." Lennox spat.

"I'm gonna count to five. Okay." Simmons said.

"Well, I'm gonna count to three." Lennox pushed the gun closer to him. Wow! I was so on Lennox's side.

"Simmons?" SoD called Douchy.

"Yes, sir." He said.

"I'd do what he says. Losing's really not an option for these guys." SoD added.

"All right. Okay. Hey, you want to lay the fate of the world on the kid's Camaro? That's cool." Simmons pouted a little.

We followed Banachek down the halls and rushed into the one we could heard Bee's cries in.

"No, no!" Sam yelled.

I ran up to one guy and yanked the ice gun out his hands "Stop! You Idiot!"

"Stop! You got to stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!" Banachek ordered.

"No, no, stop, stop, stop!" Sam said "Let him go! Let him go!"

Bumblebee sat up with a groan and looked down to me and Sam. "Are you okay?" Sam asked.

"They didn't hurt you, right?" I asked.

Bee protection helmet flung down and he aimed his weapons at the S7 guys that was freezing him.

"Listen to me. The Cube is here and the Decepticons are coming." Sam said but it seemed Bee wasn't really listening.

"No, no, don't worry about them. They're okay. Right?" Sam said gesturing to the S7 guys and soilders behind us.

"They're not gonna hurt you. Okay, Bee?" I said. Bee looked down to me and hesitated a little.

"Just back up a little bit. He's friendly. He's fine." Sam said as Lennox and Epps back up a bit.

"Okay, come on. Put the guns down. They're not gonna hurt you, Bee" I said looking up to Bumblebee's bright blue eyes.

"Here, come with me. Were gonna take you to the All Spark." Sam said. That got Bee attention as he stood up and nodded.

Everyone literally ran to the All Spark chamber, heading for the cube.

Bee walked up to the All Spark and made an 'Ooo' Noise. I smiled up to Bee and stood next to Sam who smiled as Bee was really interested in it.

Bee reached out and touched the cube. It lit up blue a little and sparked. Then all of sudden it started shrinking in a weird sort if way. It spilt into small cubes and folded into itself. I smiled as it shrunk until it fit into Bumblebee's hands.

"Oh, my God." I heard Sam say.

"I wasn't expecting that" I smiled.

"Message from Starfleet, Captain... Let's get to it." Bee said to us.

"He's right. We stay here, we're screwed with Megatron in the other hangar." Lennox said. "Mission City is 22 miles away. We're gonna sneak that Cube out of here and we're gonna hide it somewhere in the city." Lennox said.

"Good! Right." SoD said.

"But we cannot make a stand without the Air Force." Lennox said.

"This place must have some kind of radio link!" SoD said to Simmons.

"Yes. Shortwave, CB." Simmons spoke.

"Right, yes." SoD said, agreeing.

"Sir, you got to figure out some way to get word out to them. Let's move!" Lennox called to us.

"In the alien archive, sir!" Simmons said to Sod.

"The alien..."

"There's an old Army radio console." Simmons smiled.

"Will it work?" SoD asked.

"Anything's possible! Did you see that...Pssh!" He smiled as he showed what just happened to the cube with his hands.

Sam grabbed my hands and we ran over with Major Lennox over to Bumblebee who was back into a Camaro.

"All right, Sam, Clara, get it in the car!" Lennox handed the cube to me and I just stared at it.

"Mr. Secretary! Get our birds in the air. When we get to the city, we're gonna find a radio, and I'll have Epps vector them in, okay?" Lennox shouted to SoD.

"Affirmative!"

Sam pulled me inside the Camaro and I signed a little sitting in the back with Mikaela. I placed the cube next to me and put the window down, trying to catch some air.

"Warning! NBE One cryo-containment failing." I heard someone say through speakers.

"Come on! Get out of here!" Lennox shouted.

Bee drove off down the hallways. The Soliders got into some S7 Vehicles, I heard Lennox's voice talking to the others "Set a perimeter around the yellow vehicle!"

"The Cube's okay?" Sam turned around and asked.

"Yeah, it's fine." Mikaela answered.

"Well, put the seat belt on." Sam said. I laughed as Sam said about putting the seatbelt on it.

I looked out the window as we exited S7 and I heard a terrible voice shout out "I am Megatron!"

I felt sick as his voice ringed in my ears all the way down the road.

Thank you! Please review! :) It will be highly appreciated!

Also, we all know what happens to Jazz in Mission City :( *Cries* I'm thinking of changing that one little thing of said Bot dying. What do you think?

love me! X
