Hi everyone! Sorry for the delay. Between writing two stories at once, the holiday weekend, and the fact that I'm moving out of my parents house (finally!) today, I've just been hella busy. Chapters will unfortunately be released between 7-14 days each week. I want to make sure they're written as well as possible with few mistakes as well, so that takes time.

Thank you to everyone who is sticking with me! Y'all are in for a long ride if you can handle the long periods between chapters!

This chapter has a lot of dialogue so I apologize for that. But it's needed.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything Transformers related!

Chapter 11:

"Thank you so much for this, Mr Secretary. I really appreciate the help."

When we had made it back to the Hoover Dam base, Lennox prediction had been correct. We were not able to get into the hangar where the Autobots were. Luckily for us, he does not give up. He considered talking to Morshower, who was his superior, but in the end Lennox decided to go even higher.

And that's how we dragged the Secretary of Defense into this. Though honestly, it wasn't that hard. The moment he saw that I was indeed alive, he was willing to do anything to help. "Of course I can get you in there, Ms Masters. You saved Earth, it's the least I could do." He had said when we came to him. Being the savior of the world was something I'd have a fun time getting used to.

Anyway, because we were civilians, Secretary Keller knew even he would have a difficult time getting us in there without clearance. Sam, Mikaela and Mandy would be too recognizable so they couldn't come with us unfortunately. I was still believed to be dead and we were gonna use that to our advantage.

Lennox was able to procure an army uniform for me to wear, the name Wilson was printed on my chest. He was unable to come with as well so it was just the secretary and I going. I felt odd impersonating a soldier, but it needed to be done. I needed to get to my Autobot family. They needed to see me and understand that I was alive.

Boy were they going to be shocked when they find out just what happened to me when I had died.

"Of course. Now stand at alert. I'll get you in but you need to act the part or we'll both be in trouble." He winked at me. I nodded in understanding before straightening up and clasping my hands behind my back. I pressed my lips together and tried to look as serious as possible.

When we got to the hangar that housed the Autobots. Secretary Keller had me stand back for a moment while he talked to the men guarding the entrance. After they exchanged a few words, he gestured for me to follow him. I approached them, eyeing the soldiers warily. I was so close to the Autobots now, I didn't want anything to ruin this.

Fortunately they let me enter the room with no trouble. The room was clear of any humans, so that was good. Keller informed me that he had someone covering the cameras. They would all be conveniently down for the next hour or so. That meant it would just be Keller and I alone in the hangar with them. We had barely taken two steps in when all the Autobots transformed. Seeing them all again was a huge relief. Even though I was unconscious for most of it, I had missed them so much while I was away. Now that I finally have them in my life, I never wanted to lose them.

Unfortunately our reunion wasn't an immediately happy affair. Once they'd finished their transformation, all four of them powered up their cannons and pointed them threateningly at me. Each of them glared at me with hate and I shivered from its intensity. Seeing Optimus look at me as if I were an enemy was spark breaking. Never before had he given me such a nasty sneer and I hoped he never would again.

I understood why they thought I was a threat. I was clearly a Cybertronian with the face of someone they loved who they believed to be dead. If I were in their place, I would have reacted the same way. Still, I couldn't help but feel slightly hurt by their animosity.

The secretary held up his hands. "Whoa, whoa! Everyone just calm down!" He shouted to both the Autobots. "What is wrong with you guys, this is Jenny. She's alive."

"That is not Jenny" Ironhide spat. "Who are you, Decepticon scum and why do you have her face." He demanded. I took an involuntary step back. I knew 'Hide could be scary but I never expected to be on the other end.

"I am not a Decepticon, Ironhide." I informed him with my own fiery glare. My eyes shifted to Optimus. "It really is me, Jenny. I'm alive and I will explain everything to you if you just calm down and let me. Please, ask me anything you want and I'll tell you the truth."

"That's not possible. Jenny is dead. She was a human as well, which you clearly are not. Stop it with your lies and reveal who you truly are." I heard Ratchet growl. However my eyes never left Optimus. He was studying me sharply and I could see the conflict waging in his optics.

"Please." I begged him quietly. Something in my voice must have convinced him to listen to me. Optimus powered down his weapons. "Okay, if you are truly Jenny, tell me about your first dream," he finally decided.

I smiled, both in relief and in reminiscence. My optics closed and suddenly I was a five year old girl again. "It all happened so fast, at least to me. I had always had vivid dreams, but this… this was something else."

Where am I?

That was my first thought when I opened my eyes. I was no longer lost in the middle of the woods, but I didn't recognize anything around me. The room I woke up in was big, bigger than any room I'd ever been in! That's including the school gym, which I'd always thought was pretty huge. It had nothing on this place though.

It looked like the inside of a spaceship, like the ones I saw in mommas space movies. One glance of the giant window confirmed it, all I could see was an inky blackness dotted with millions of bright orbs. I walked up to the glass and laid a hand on it, shivering at the cool feel. "Whoa." I whispered in awe. It was beautiful.

THUD. THUD. THUD.

I gasped in fear at the sound of loud, thundering footsteps. I looked around for a hiding spot, but the room was completely empty. Staring in the direction of the steps, I watched as a massive shadow appeared on the ground. It only seemed to grow bigger and bigger until it covered everything, including myself. I was nearly trembling in fear when it finally entered the room.

What I saw took my breath away.

I should have been afraid of the gigantic robot in front of me. However, the moment my eyes met his, I knew there was nothing to be scared of. I don't know how or why, but I felt safe in his presence.

The large being stared at me in confusion and curiosity. When he opened his mouth to speak, it wasn't words that came out, but a combination of beeping and buzzing noises. I tilted my head and giggled. "I don't understand." I informed him.

He mimicked my head tilt and spoke some more in his strange language. I wished that I could understand him. He then surprised me when he knelt down in front of me to get a closer look. The robot gently poked me in the side, as if he were testing to see if I were real or not. I giggled again. "That tickles!"

I felt a surge of bravery and jumped on his finger, hugging it with a brilliant smile. I decided whoever this was, he was nice and I wanted him to be my friend. I definitely surprised him but he quickly adjusted himself so that he could catch me with his other hand when I started slipping off. Then he carefully straightened up and brought me to his face. Still I wasn't afraid, even when I was a lot of feet up. He made more funny noises that I didn't understand, but I thought they sounded cool.

I reached forward and cupped his cheek with my tiny hand. It was a tiny dot against his armor, a gentle reminder of his size. I didn't care though, I was absolutely fascinated by him. "Are you my guardian angel?" I asked him, unaware that he was thinking the same thing about myself. I closed my eyes and laid my cheek on his. "I don't know who you are, but I like you."

When I opened my eyes again, I was somehow back in my bedroom. It was very confusing considering I had passed out in the woods but I figured my parents must have found me. I was sad that the robot guy was gone, I missed him already. I hoped I would see him again soon.

I opened up my optics and smiled at the Autobots. By now, they had all lowered their weapons. They knew the story of my first dream with Optimus and they also knew there was no way a Decepticon could know. My story had pretty much confirmed what I was saying as true, I was Jenny.

"But… how?"

The question came from Ratchet. I felt him scan me several times, but from the growing frustration on his face, I knew he wasn't receiving the answers he wanted. My new form had stumped all of them.

I finally shrugged my shoulders. "Short answer is, when I passed out, I met Primus-" The Autobots all straightened up in surprise. "- and he basically gave me a choice. I could let my human body die and become a Cybertronian, or stay as I was."

"And you chose the first option?" Keller asked, a hint of surprise in his voice.

I smiled happily. "Yes. I would choose them over and over again if given the chance. They're my family." I replied genuinely. "There is more though. I didn't just become a Cybertronian. When I pushed the Cube into Megatons chest, the Allspark energy wasn't destroyed. It latched onto the next suitable host. When I found that shard in the strange blue lake eleven years ago, it changed me. I became connected to the Allspark, it's why I was able to dream about you guys. I was able to tap into some of the Cubes power. Well, because I was part of the Allspark already, it made me the perfect host."

All of the Autobots were now looking at me with a mixture of fascination and awe. Keller, however, was still confused. "What exactly does that mean?" He asked.

"It means Jenny has become the new Allspark." Ratchet informed him. I felt him scan me again. "It explains why there's such a strong Allspark energy signature coming from you. I'd thought it was due to your resurrection, however if what you say is true, then it may just be your Cybertronian signature."

I crossed my arms. "I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that that's a bad thing?" I replied, more as a question than a statement.

"It puts you in danger. If the Decepticon picks up your signature, they will come after you. They will want to try and tap into your powers for their own gain. They will torture you and anyone you love to get the results they desire." Optimus relayed gravely.

I'll be honest, I hadn't thought of the consequences I would face as the Allspark. Then again, I was never given the choice. I wasn't necessarily bitter about this, being a Cybertronian was a dream come true. Becoming the Allspark meant I could help save my family's, and now my own, race. However, it did scare me that I'd be putting everyone I love at risk.

Mandy was my biggest concern at the moment. The Autobots could take care of themselves, but Mandy was just a human. If they got to her, I would never forgive myself.

"There is another problem." Keller spoke up. "If the government finds out a human turned into one of you guys, who knows what kind panic would ensue. There wouldn't be an alliance, there'd be war. Ms Masters here would be taken away and experimented on. As much as it pains me to admit, humans are scared of the unknown and they tend to react harshly."

Ironhide growled, his cannons whirring to life. He pointed them threateningly at Keller. "No one is taking her anywhere. We will protect Jenny with our lives. It would be unwise of your leaders to cross us." He warned the Secretary of Defense. "Not only is she important to us as the Allspark, she is also a member of our team. We take care of our own and will not hesitate to kill anyone who tries to hurt her."

Despite the seriousness of the situation, I couldn't help but feel warm inside at his words. It just reminded me how strong a hold I had on these guys. They loved me just as much as I did them. Keller realized this as well and raised in his hands defensively. "Whoa, I'm with you guys. I don't want any harm to come to her. I'm just warning you of that potential danger."

I waved a hand at Ironhide to put his weapons away. I trusted Keller and I knew what he was saying was true. Humans had a habit of shooting first, and asking questions later. They've also been known to label unknown things as dangerous, and therefore needed to be destroyed. I was certainly not interested in ending up in some government lab to be experimented on.

So the problem we would need to solve was how we were going to introduce me to U.S. leaders without revealing the fact that I was once human. "We just need to make sure the humans never find out the truth." I hummed to myself. I had a half an Idea in mind, but was unsure on how to execute it. "I am technically considered dead, right? What if we keep it that way? The fewer people who know what I really am, the better."

Optimus got a certain gleam in his optics that told me he understood where I was going with this. "You wish to keep it that way? The humans will believe you are dead and we will introduce you as a new Autobot?"

I nodded. "I'm sure we could easily fabricate a story. I could have just arrived on Earth and found you guys. I'm sure other Autobots will be arriving in the next few months. I was just the first to arrive. Ooo, I could have my own Autobot name!" I suggested. I frowned though when I considered one thing. "There is the problem of the doctors at the hospital. They saw me come back to life and who knows how many people they've told."

"That I can take care of. I'll personally go talk to the doctors there and make sure they understand your resurrection is classified information and that, should they tell anyone, they will spend the rest of their life in federal prison."

"Perfect." I took a deep breath. That was a human habit that would take a while to get over. It was hard to get used to the fact that I no longer required air to breath. "I trust Sam, Mikaela, and Mandy to keep my secret. I don't know Lennox well, but I feel as if I can trust him as well."

Keller nodded. Then he left the room to get started on dealing with the hospital staff. This left me alone with the Autobots. I smiled at my family. "So, I'd imagine you guys have lots of questions."

Ratchet knelt down in front of me. "Yes. But for now, I'd like to run some tests on you. A human turned Cybertronian is something I've never seen before. I want to make sure everything is working okay." He offered me his palm and I stepped into it. He straightened up and then walked over to a makeshift medical berth that had been set up for them. The other Autobots stayed behind. I couldn't resist glancing back at Optimus. He was staring after me, his optics brightened intensely. It had my spark pulsing longingly. He was so close now, I just wanted to be with him.

Ratchet gently set me down on the aforementioned berth. "First things first, are you able to transform into your bipedal mode? I am assuming you are like a Pretender and that's why you still have your human form."

"That would make sense." I agreed. I knew Pretenders were Transformers fitted with special external armor shells that can disguise their very nature as robots. Pretender Shells allow a Cybertronian to take on the appearance of a native life form itself. The only drawback I feared was my size. What if I became a Cybertronian, only to remain tiny compared to my family. That would suck.

I shoved away my negative thoughts and tried to concentrate on the task at hand. "Okay so how would I go about this? Believe it or not, I've never transformed before." I lamely attempted a joke.

"Transforming is a lot like walking, you just need to will it to happen and then it will. Concentrate." Ratchet instructed. I nodded and shut my eyes to focus. Despite the fact that my eyes were closed, my processor came to life. My mind now acted like a computer. I could see files on all aspects of my life, including a file labeled Allspark. That was locked with heavy encryption that I didn't even know how to begin cracking. It was probably best to leave it be for now.

I finally found a file labeled Transforming. I mentally clicked on it and three boxes appeared. The first box was me in my human form. The second one just had the outline of a Cybertronian but there weren't details on it like the human one. Probably because I didn't know what I looked like as a Cybertronian yet. The final box was blank. That was most likely reserved for my alt-form.

I clicked on the second box and gasped when my body suddenly jerked upwards. When I opened my eyes, I was no longer a tiny human. Instead, I was standing just a little higher than Ratchet, thanks to the extra height the berth I was standing on provided.

"Okay this is awesome." I grinned and carefully stepped off the berth. Without the added lift, I was still slightly taller than Ratchet, so that was cool. I couldn't help but admire my form. Without armor, my protoforn was a silvery grey color. I knew I was essentially naked but I wasn't embarrassed. Cybertronians were more open than humans and besides, this was my family. I trusted them. "How in the world am I able to go from my tiny human form to this?"

"I wish I had an answer for you, but this is beyond even me. However if the Cube was able to change its size at will, it makes sense that you'd be able to as well." Ratchet replied before he scanned me again. "Everything seems to be in order. We'll need to find you an alt-mode and get some protective armor on you." He paused for a moment before smiling at me. "You make a fine Cybertronian Jenny, Optimus will be very impressed."

I felt my system heating up at his words. My cooling fans kicked in, a familiar sound I'd heard from Optimus several times in the past. "Thanks." I mumbled, though I felt genuinely happy. "Hey Ratch, now that we've gotten past all the uncertainty of my resurrection, where is Sunfire? I miss my sparkling." She'd been at the forefront of my mind since I woke up. I needed to see her again.

"She is here, of course." Ratchet opened his nursery compartment and pulled out my little girl. She had been sleeping but her optics flared to life when she was moved. Sunfire looked up curiously before her optics met my own. For a moment, the two of us were locked in a staring contest. My optics grew misty, she was so beautiful.

Sunfire tilted her head. "Creator?" Her voice buzzed pleasantly. I was surprised I could understand her, I knew she was speaking Cybertronian. I felt a familiar longing in my spark and somehow I knew she did too. I reached forward and gently caressed her cheek.

"Yes, sweetspark. I am your femme creator. Call me momma." I spoke back to her in perfect Cybertronian. I hadn't even thought about it, the words just flowed out. I grinned up at Ratchet. "How do I know Cybertronian? I knew very few words before my resurrection."

He, however, was just as confused as I was. "I can only guess. Perhaps it is a gift from the Allspark?" He offered her to me and I took my little girl into my arms. Then I brought her close to my chest, right near my spark. She curled up in my arms, basking in the warmth. My spark melted at the sight.

Who knew something so perfect could be mine?

"Momma, I'm still tired." Sunfire whispered into my chest. I brought her up to my face and held her to my cheek for a moment. Then I handed her back to Ratchet. He carefully set her back in his compartment and she dimmed her optics to slip into recharge. "I will continue to hold onto her until after your introduction to the humans." Ratchet promised me, to which I nodded in agreement. I would need to shrink back down to leave. I didn't want anything to happen to her so Ratchet was the best guardian.

Optimus approached us then. I smiled shyly at him. It was amazing to finally be able to smile at him face to face. I was no longer the size of his finger. He was still several feet taller than me so I had to lift my chin to look into his optics. "Hey Optimus."

"Hello, my angel." He spoke softly. I took a step towards him and threw my arms around his neck, hugging him tightly. Optimus returned the embrace, pulling me as close to him as possible. "I thought I lost you."

My spark broke, his voice was full of pain and I hated the fact that I was the cause of it. I pulled back, though I kept my arms wrapped around him. "I'm sorry Optimus. I promise you that I'm not going anywhere. We will grow super old together, just you, me and little Sunfire. That is,if you want to help me raise her? I don't have any clue on how to raise a sparkling."

"I would be honored."

I laid my head on his chest, just above his spark. I could hear it humming, it sounded like life. In that moment, I was happier than I'd ever been before. I knew Optimus and I had a real chance at a future now. It would be full of danger and uncertainty given the strange circumstances that had caused my resurrection as a Cybertronian. Being the Allspark would have it's own trials.

However I was ready to face them all. I knew as long as I had my Optimus and our Autobot family by my side, I could do anything. For once in my life, I felt as if everything would be okay.

And scene! Finally, omg. This chapter has been difficult to write. Even as I write this author's note, I know I'm going to go through and change some stuff before publishing this. But hey, it's done. Just took me a week to write. Until next time, my friends!
