Hello everyone! I'm so excited to finally get some reviews on this. I appreciate you all. If I can reach just one person with my story, then I'm happy. Here's hoping you enjoy this next chapter!

Also, I discovered a little flaw in my last few chapters. I had Jenny, Mandy, Sam and Mikaela as seniors. However, ROTF is set two years in the future. If Sam is going into college, that wouldn't make much sense. So I just went through and edited all the chapters back a year. If you see any other inconsistencies that I might've missed, feel free to point them out to me so I can fix them!

I didn't want to go back two years because sophomore just seemed too young. That being said, my birthday is in June, I graduated at 18 and that's how Jenny would be. She's about to turn 17 because I have this taking place in May. I missed the cut off for school so I was basically a year older than everyone else. I turned 19 a month after I graduated lol.

Anyways let's get to the story, shall we!

Disclaimer: I do not own transformers.

Chapter 12:

Introducing me to the humans had gone better than expected. As long as Optimus vouched for me, the military was fine with my arrival. You could tell they were still slightly stressed out by another titan arriving on their planet. Especially with one who was able to disguise herself as a human. That was a hard pill for them to swallow, just imagine if they knew I had once been human. Luckily, it was easy enough to change my looks so that people wouldn't recognize me as Jenny Masters.

I had chopped off most of my black and red tresses, giving myself a cute pixie hair cut, and dyed my hair blonde. I was afraid it wouldn't look good with how pale my skin was, but it worked well. I was also able to program my eye color, which was interesting to say the least. Ratchet walked me through the process. I went from having green orbs, to a bright blue color that matched my optics perfectly. I figured it might as well to keep up with my ruse of being a Cybertronian from the beginning. It was amazing how changing two simple things had disguised my identity.

Unfortunately I couldn't keep the secret from everyone. In order to have a good relationship with the humans, Optimus decided we needed to tell the President of the United States. As a teenager who hadn't cared much about politics, I knew nothing about this man so the thought of telling my secret was honestly terrifying. Optimus assured me that, should the humans react negatively and come after me in any way, there would be no alliance. We would just procure a ship somehow and leave this would. The humans would be at the mercy of the Decepticons, so I hoped that wouldn't be the case.

Still, I couldn't help but feel nervous as I was escorted through the Hoover Dam, to a private conference room that had been set up. Optimus would be with me as a holoform, while I would be in my human form. Ratchet would be on standby in case we needed him to explain how what happened to be was a unique circumstance.

Optimus also hoped to talk more about the alliance, should everything go well with my introduction.

When we arrived, the door was opened for us by secret service agents. We stepped through and it was closed behind us. The room was small, hardly large enough for the round table in the center. There were four individuals seated at the table, President George Bush, Secretary Keller, Lennox, and a General named Morshower.

They had all stood up when we entered the room and were now staring at us. My spark began to beat faster nervously and I absentmindedly grabbed Optimus's hand. He rubbed his thumb a crossed its back gently to reassure me. However he had to let go when the president came up and offered Optimus his own hand to shake. "You must be Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots. Major Lennox here was just explaining your holograms to me. Fascinating bit of technology. We have yet to make ours solid so consider me impressed. I'm President George Bush, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Yes. It is a pleasure to meet you as well." Optimus greeted. He laid a hand on my back and pushed me forward slightly. "This is Jenny Masters."

I checked nervously and offered him my own hand. "It's nice to meet you, Mr President." I said as he shook mine. He then gestured towards the table and invited us to take a seat so that we may get started. We walked over and Optimus pulled back my chair so that I could take my seat. "Thank you." I winked back at him as he took his seat beside me.

The president retook his own seat so the meeting could begin. Keller was the first one to speak up. "So you all know why we are here today. It's to discuss the classification of Ms Masters here and her change from a human into a Cybertronian. No one outside of this room will have clearance to this information, barring any friends or family that Ms Masters would like to tell. The hospital staff who knew about her resurrection have already been giving confidentiality forms with the threat of federal prison should they ever reveal what they know. As far as the general public knows, Jenny Masters died during the attack on Mission City. Any questions?"

General Morshower straightened up in his chair. "I just have one. I would ask that neither of you take any offense to this question, I would just like your answer to go on record should this ever actually become an issue." He explained and I gestured for him to continue. I had an inkling of what he wanted to ask. "Were you turned into a Cybertronian against your will?"

I vented out a breath of air. "No, it was not against my will. I've always wanted to be a Cybertronian because the Autobots are the only real family I've ever known. My mom hardly wanted me and I never had a good father figure in my life. The Autobots took me in, accepted me as their own, and I know they love me. Becoming a Cybertronian is a dream come true, I couldn't be happier." I replied with a brief smile directed at Optimus. He returned it warmly.

"Good. I'm curious as to how you know the Autobots well enough to think of them as family? I thought their first human contact with civilians was the night Sector Seven took you from Sam Witwicky's house." Morshower asked, shuffling through a pile of notes as he did so. That was undoubtedly my classified file.

"I mean, technically that's true. However, I've been communicating with the Autobots for most of my life. That part is kind of hard to explain." I answered, absentmindedly reaching up to tug on a piece of my hair. However, I met air. I'd forgotten that most of my hair was cut off now I guess. "Ever since I was five years old, I've been connected to the Allspark. This connection allowed me to visit the Autobots in my dreams. I know it sounds a little far fetched, but it's the truth. When I destroyed the Cube, the power from the Allspark needed a new host. I was the closest suitable match. Becoming a Cybertronian was the only way for me to be able to fully contain its power. Otherwise, I would've died in like ten years."

"What?" Optimus' sharp voice snapped after I had said that. I winced, I never told him that part. I'd plan on keeping it to myself. Too late now.

"Sorry, I know I probably should've told you." I reached for one of his hands and grasped it in my own. "Primus gave me a choice. I could come back as a human, but I'd only live for like ten years. Each time I would've used my powers, it would've weakened me more and more. My fleshy, organic body just wouldn't have been able to contain its power. Then he offered me the choice to become a Cybertronian. This way I could've lived indefinitely."

"Why didn't you choose to remain human?" Morshower asked, though not unkindly. It was merely a question born from curiosity. I couldn't say I blamed him for wondering. It wasn't a decision anyone would take lightly. Very few would even give it a second thought.

"Like I said, the Autobots are my family. I want to be with them for the rest of my existence and ten years just didn't seem long enough. Besides, being the Allspark as a Cybertronian means I can do a lot more good than if I'd been stuck as a human. I don't know all of my powers yet, but I know they will help my family and that's all that matters. I don't even slightly regret my decision. This was my destiny, and I fully accept it and I am proud of it." I answered passionately. Optimus, who still held my hand, squeezed it appreciatively. I knew if I were still human, I would have blushed. Instead, I just smiled lovingly at him.

"Good, then that is one less thing for us to worry about. The other thing we need to discuss is your identity. You'll need a new name, of course. Luckily since you will be introduced as a new Autobot, we don't have to worry about creating a human file on you." Secretary Keller spoke up.

I grinned, having already given this some thought. "I already have a Cybertronian name in mind. I want to be called Gemini, then I can still have the nickname of Jenny. People will just think it's G-I-n-n-y, or with an e or something, I don't care. That way if someone accidentally calls me Jenny, it won't be as suspicious, you know?"

Secretary Keller nodded his assent. General Morshower wrote down some notes in my file before he looked up again. "Alright, I've recorded all your information. As we've stated, it will be highly classified and information will be blacked out so it doesn't get into the wrong hands. I will just need each of you to sign non disclosure paperwork, that includes you Optimus Prime." He informed us. We each took turns signing the paperwork before Morshower sealed it into a briefcase that had a thumbprint lock.

"There is one last matter to discuss." The President spoke up now. "I'm sure you've been wondering if the United States was going to form an alliance with the Autobots?" Optimus nodded and informed him that he had planned to bring it up before the end of this meeting. "Of course. After countless meetings, we have decided to form a partnership and create a Human/Autobot taskforce. The Decepticons will no doubt return and I want my people to be ready. Negotiations will take place tomorrow, so decide how much you're willing to share with us. Major Lennox will lead beside you on the human side."

Optimus nodded at Lennox, clearly pleased with this decision. "I look forward to training beside you, Major Lennox. You are an honorable soldier, and great leader."

Lennox thanked him and returned with his own compliments. I, for one, was really excited to see these two train together. Hell, I looked forward to training with them. I knew that I would need to learn to defend myself. I would always be considered a target now. As soon as the Decepticons discover what I am, they will come after me with everything they have.

"Can I ask what will happen to my friends, Sam, Mikaela and Mandy?" I piped up.

"They will be returned to their families under strict confidentiality. As they are all minors, we can not allow them to stay at the base." The Secretary of Defense explained. I felt my spark sink at his words. I would be separated from Mandy after all. I knew it was a possibility, however I also trusted Primus. He assured me I would see my friend again some day, she had her own destiny that intertwined my own.

The meeting finished pretty quickly after that. Optimus exchanged a few more words with the President and Lennox while I quietly conversed with Keller. Finally, however, the meeting was adjourned. I stood up and went to follow Optimus out of the door when Lennox called me back. "Jenny can I talk to you for a moment?"

I waved Optimus out and joined Lennox back at the table. "What's up?"

"I figured you might want to say goodbye to your friends. They're being taken back to Tranquility tomorrow. If you'll follow me, I'll take you to where they've been staying." Lennox offered me. I grinned and practically launched myself at him. I wrapped my arms tightly around his waist and thanked him profusely. He chuckled. "Of course, now come on."

I followed him out the door. Optimus was still waiting for me in the hall. After I briefly explained to him where I was going and assured him that Lennox would bring me back to the Autobot hanger, we were off. I was excited to see my friends again, but I was also really upset to know it was to say goodbye. I worried about how Mandy would fare now that I wouldn't be at school with her. She would have to graduate next year without me. People would know about my 'death' and they would undoubtedly pity her. She would have Sam and Mikaela, but I knew it wouldn't be the same.

The room they were staying in was located all the way across the base. I supposed it was the military's way of keeping them separated from the Autobots. Not that it mattered since Bee would be following them when they left. He would be Sam's guardian, but I had no doubt he would be looking after all three of my best friends. It made me feel slightly better that they'd have him at least.

Still, saying goodbye was going to hurt.

Lennox waited in the hall while I entered their room. Their room had a living space and then two separate bedrooms and a bathroom. I knew they probably expected Mandy and Mikaela to share a room, but I doubted that was what happened. I felt bad that Mandy had been basically alone since I'd left the day before.

"Who are you?" Mandy frowned, having not immediately recognized my new disguise. The three of them were chilling in the living room.

I grinned. "Well, I'm glad it actually works. It's me, Jenny. This is just my new look so people don't know I'm alive." I wiggled my eyebrows at her. Mandy practically squealed and threw herself into my arms. "Whoa! I missed you too sis."

"Where the hell have you been?" She demanded when she pulled away.

"I had things to take care of. Listen, that's not what's important right now. Take a seat on the couch, I have a lot to explain." I replied before leading her back over to Sam and Mikaela. We took a seat on one of the couches while the couple took the other. "So I don't know if you've heard or not, but they're taking you guys back to Tranquility tomorrow. This will most likely be the last time you see me for some time. Since I'm technically dead, I can't go back with you. I'm an Autobot now, I belong here."

Mandy stared at me, shellshocked, with tears in her eyes. "I have to do senior year without you? How am I supposed to graduate without my best friend?" She asked before she latched onto me. "Will I ever see you again?" She sobbed into my shoulder.

"Oh sweetie, of course you will. Before I became a Cybertronian, I asked Primus if I would no longer have you in my life, that was my greatest fear. He assured me that I would. We'll be together again, and when that happens, you and I will cause all kinds of chaos around here."

She sniffed. "You promise?"

"Of course." I hugged her tightly, though I remained mindful of my newfound strength. "Now chin up. You're gonna kick ass next year. And you won't be alone, you'll have Sam and Mikaela. You guys will be like the three musketeers, I just know it."

The two mentioned came up and wrapped their own arms around Mandy and I. "I know I'm not Jenny, but I'll try to be a good girl friend for you." Mikaela assured her. I smiled gratefully at her and she quickly returned it. Sam also promised to be there for her. I knew she would be on good hands with them.

"Besides, Bee will be with Sam. He can give you updates on how I'm doing or you can give him a message for me." I informed her.

Everyone pulled away from the group hug and Mandy wiped some tears from her eyes. "Thanks guys. I'm gonna miss you so much Jenny. You better stay safe out there. I've already lost you once. I couldn't handle it if I lost you while you were halfway across the world or wherever it is you guys end up at."

I promised her I would do my best. Then I hugged her one more time. I tried to memorize as much as I could about my best friend, I wasn't sure just how long it would be before I saw her again. We didn't let go until we heard knocking at the door. I knew that was Lennox's way of warning me that I was almost out of time.

"Goodbye Mandy. I love you."

"I love you too, Jenny. Bye for now."

Turning my back from her and walking away was the hardest thing I'd ever done. Sam and Mikaela called out their own goodbyes, which I returned, as I exited the room. Lennox was leaning against the opposite wall when I came through the door. He stood up straight and asked me if I was alright. All I could do was shake my head. I couldn't form the words. He opened his arms, inviting me for a hug, and I quickly accepted.

Then he silently led me back through the base and into the Autobot hanger. He'd been given clearance following the meeting with the President. Most likely due to the fact that he would lead this new taskforce with Optimus.

Speaking of him, Optimus immediately spotted up upon entry. I transformed into my bipedal mode and immediately threw myself into his arms. Crying as a Cybertronian was similar to that of a human. The only difference was it wasnt salt tears that fell, rather it was coolant. The tears fell from my optics in great big drops. He just held me close, whispering words of reassurance.

The other Autobots gathered around us, standing by as silent pillars of support.

Leaving my human life behind wouldn't be without its consequences. I would never graduate high school or college, nor would I ever have my fairy tale white wedding. I would most likely never see my mother again. My friends would grow old and pass away, and I'd have to watch them die.

However as much as all these hurt, I knew I'd made the right decision though. My family was right here, supporting me as I grieved what I was losing. A part of me will always miss my time as a human.

And I was going to miss Mandy so much.

I must have slipped into recharge in Optimus's arms because the next thing I knew, I was surrounded by stars. Hundreds of millions of glowing orbs were floating around me. They were whispering too, some words were so quiet I could only hear a slight buzzing. Others I could actually just barely make out.

What really amazed me was the realization that they were all in different languages. Some of it was human, some was Cybertronian, and the rest were a variety of different alien languages that I'd never heard before. "Wow, what is this place?" I whispered to myself in awe.

"This is the Well of Souls."

Now that I heard loud and clear. It had startled me and I looked around for the source of the feminine phantom voice. I couldn't see anyone else, however, just miles and miles of floating orbs.

"They're not just orbs, host, they are the souls of every living being who has ever existed."

Holy crap. Optimus had once told me the Autobots had a version that was like our Heaven, he called it the Well of Sparks though. "Why am I here? Who are you? I know you're not Primus, but I've never heard you before. The only other reason why I might be hearing a voice is because you're the Allspark." I concluded myself.

"Yes, I am the Allspark. I brought you here because it is time you start learning how to control the powers you were gifted. You have two very important abilities, the power to heal and the power to bring life."

"Okay, so where do we begin? It's not like there's anyone here for me to heal or give life to." I asked with a raised eyebrow. The whispers around me suddenly became more frenzied and some of the orbs spun sound me so fast it only left behind a trail of white light.

I watched them, memorized by their movements. Then one particular orb dropped directly in front of me and began to glow brightly. So much so, in fact, that I had to shield my eyes protectively from its light.

"On the contrary, you have a very good friend here who has volunteered to be the test subject. I think you'll be quite happy with your results should you succeed."

The light finally faded and its place stood a very familiar, Cybertronian figure. I gasped out loud in disbelief. Floating in front in me was the ghost of someone I very much loved, someone who had died only a few days ago. I never imagined I would ever see him again. But there he was. "Oh my sweet Primus, Jazz?!"

My favorite saboteur grinned back at me.

"Hello there lil lady. "

Yay, it's Jazzy! Haha, aren't you guys happy to see him back? Stay tuned for the next chapter y'all! Leave me a little review if you feel so inclined.

Also ugh, I feel like so much of these past few chapters have been all dialogue. I'm so ready to get back to some action!
