Disclaimer: I own NOTHING!! Except Hana, she's mine. Anyway upon reading the last chapter again myself I must admit that yes, Hana's reaction was a bit much. It was amusing though. I was extremely hyper when I wrote it so that might have had something to do with it. Anyway thank you again to all of those reading this story. I was seriously surprised to see how many had read it already. And special thanks to those who reviewed! Anyway I'll shut up now…so on with the chapter!

Appearances can be Deceptive

That night the humans went to bed at around 10 as two of them had school in the morning. Hana shared Mikaela's tent and had told the two not to worry about their camping stuff as she offered to put it away for them. They greatly appreciated it and thanked her before they all went to sleep. The Autobots keeping watch over them during the night.

In the morning Sam and Mikaela were up by 7:00, both hurrying to get ready for school. They left in Bumblebee at 7:30, giving them a little extra time if there happened to be heavy traffic that morning. They eventually got onto the highway and were driving along, blending in completely with the other cars.

"The weekend went by way to fast." Sam yawned keeping his hand on the steering wheel to hide the fact from nearby drivers that the car was actually driving itself.

"Mmm. Ironhide didn't even get another chance to blow you to smithereens." Mikaela smiled evilly.

Sam gave her a mock glare but when the radio chirped to life he shifted his gaze to the steering wheel and glared at it, clearly not amused.

[History is made by stupid people; clever people wouldn't even try

"Nice Bee'." Mikaela smiled. "But I agree with you Sam. I've been getting kind of anxious because of it. As much as we may try and not think about it, the Decepticons will be back. It's been quiet for a while but I have a feeling that something will happen soon."

"Yeah, I've been feeling that way too." Sam agreed. "But with Bumblebee and the rest of the Autobots protecting us I'm sure we'll be fine." He stated encouragingly.

The rest of the trip was quiet except for the music playing from Bumblebee's radio. They arrived at the school at 8:40, giving them 20 minutes before homeroom. Bumblebee pulled into the parking lot and Sam and Mikaela got out. Sam had been about to shut his door when a certain Jock came up to the car. Mikaela noticed him coming along with his followers and walked around the front of the Camaro to stand by Sam.

"What ever happened to that piece of crap you had?" Trent sneered.

Just then the radio exploded. [I'm withholding my anger, though I'd like to be the strangler of this punk ass little pussy's puny neck/ It's my right to insist that he acknowledge my existence but he just displays complete lack of respect.

Sam glanced to the car beside him in utter shock, One because he had half expected Bumblebee to attack Trent and two because if Trent got the meaning of that he'd kill him. Sam turned his gaze back to Trent preparing to get the shit beat out of him.

"Guess ya still got a piece of crap." Trent laughed.

Sam realized that Trent hadn't caught on to the fact that the song snippet had been directed towards him. For this he was grateful.

"Why don't you come back with me and ditch this loser and his crap car?" Trent asked looking at Mikaela.

"No thanks, and by the way, this car is a heck of a lot better then your truck even with its 22 inch rims." Mikaela stated glaring at Trent.

"What does this geek have that I don't hmm?" Trent shot back.

"He's not a narcissistic jerk."

"Leave her alone Trent, it's her choice." Sam cut in.

Trent came up to him but before Trent could do anything Mikaela got in the way. " Just stop okay?" Mikaela asked seriously as Sam got up. "Let's go Sam." Mikaela then grabbed his hand and led him off towards the school, shouldering past Trent and his friends. When they got to the doors to the school Sam stopped and turned around and shouted back to Trent.

"Oh I finished my book! I'll make sure to send you a copy!" Sam then took off after Mikaela before Trent remembered what he was talking about.

"Phew!" Hana sighed. Then she flopped down onto the grass and stared up at the cloudless sky. "I feel sorry for them for having to go to school on a day like this."

She had just finished gathering up all of Sam and Mikaela's camp supplies and had them all in a neat pile. The two would be back after school to get them. Hana thought about her new friends and smiled. Last night they had talked about anything and everything, from stories about when they were younger to what it was like for Hana to have a brother who was a multi billionaire. They mostly talked about what it was like to know the Autobots though. At one point they had run out of topics, and eventually Sam asked her how she had known which Autobot was Ironhide. He hadn't described them to her at all yet she seemed to pick him out right away.

She had answered that she had known, or thought she knew at least, which one he was from the Autobot's vehicle modes. Bumblebee had made it quite clear who he was, the red and blue truck was the biggest so she assumed that to be the leader, and the search and rescue hummer just didn't seem like the kind of car someone who loved weapons would turn into. So the only other car there had been the topkick. She probably shouldn't have jumped on him as that was disrespectful, but seeing as how he hadn't tried to shoot her with his plasma canons she assumed she wasn't in trouble.

Hana sat up and leaned back on her hands letting the wind tease her hair as she gazed up at the clouds. After she was finished her work she'd have to leave to take the designs back to her brother. Probably help out the crews as they make them too. However after that she was definitely planning on coming back here to the base. Even though she had only met them yesterday she was already getting attached to them. Hana tilted her head around to look behind her as she heard the heavy steps of a Cybertronian.

"You seem to be enjoying yourself." Ratchet stated once he got closer.

"Mmmhmm." Hana replied as she stood up to face the medic. "It's nice out here. I like to get away from the city every once in a while. You know, to see the earth with out all the buildings and stuff."

"Yes. Your planet is a beautiful one." Ratchet said as he looked around at the scenery. His gaze eventually came to rest on the camping gear. "Would you like some assistance taking that to the base."

"That would be wonderful. I was beginning to wonder how the heck I was going to carry it all." Hana explained.

Ratchet then proceeded to transform until a Search and Rescue hummer rested beside her. She smiled and then turned to gather the bags up and started loading them into Ratchet's cab. Once everything was pilled in she went to the drivers side and hoped in, shoving some of the stuff over as she did so. It didn't take them very long to get to the base and Hana quickly unloaded Ratchet so that her could turn back into his mech form again.

"Are you going to continue working on the new designs for the military arms today?" Ratchet asked curiously.

"Yes. It should only take today to come up with them though."

"Then you will be leaving us?" Ratchet questioned.

"Yeah, I'll probably leave tomorrow morning and head back to the arms factory my brother works at. Don't worry though, I'll be back after that. Then I'll make sure to stick around longer." She assured him.

Ratchet nodded. He turned towards the door to the base and opened it. Hana followed him in and to the med bay. She told him tat she would see him later and headed down the large hallway towards the arms room. She finally arrived at the door and went in the room.

'I half expected Ironhide to be in here. Must be talking to Optimus, ether that or taking a nap.' She giggled a little as an image of a snoring Ironhide popped into her head.

Hana shook her head to clear it and set to work. She climbed up onto the table again and picked up the sketchbook that she had left there the day before. She remembered everything that Ironhide had told her about the different properties of each weapon and took note on the mass of each. While drawing out her various ideas she remembered her conversation with the Sec. Def. The two of them and her brother knew that these weapons must only be used against the Decepticons and not used for any other purpose. They also knew that they would have to train troops to use the new equipment. They planned on training Will's team and the raptor pilots who had assisted in the first battle at Mission City. She too had full intentions to learn all about them and as she had said before equip them to her own jet, however she would do that herself.

After about an hour Ironhide had come in to find her working away. Hana hadn't even noticed him until he said something. She explained her ideas to him and he gave her his opinion on them. At some point Hana's hand started to cramp so she took a break. Ironhide had left a while ago so she decided to go see what everyone was doing. She had gone to the med bay first and when she went in, discovered that Bumblebee had returned. Not looking as happy and energetic as he usually did. She listened in to see what Ratchet and the younger bot were saying.

"Bumblebee! Language!" Ratchet scolded the younger bot.

"What? He was being down right insulting and was picking on the kids." Bumblebee explained in his defense.

"What happen now?" Hana asked curiously.

Ratchet turned to look at her, his arms crossed. "A boy named Trent, who does not act kindly towards Sam apparently called Bumblebee a "piece of crap camaro". This angered him as he tells me and in his defense played a song from your kind which does not contain appropriate language." He explained gruffly glancing at said camaro with an optic ridge raised in annoyance.

"What song was it?" Hana turned to Bee' looking curiously at him.

[He has no choice but to scream and raise his voice up at me cause it annoys him to see that I ain't scared/ You ain't no mother…

"BUMBLEBEE!!" Ratchet shouted cutting the song short.

Bumblebee just shrugged his shoulders looking innocent. Hana laughed and then spoke again. "Trent's the one that Mikaela used to go out with, so now that she's going out with Sam he's likely to be pissed." Mikaela had told her about it last night during there long conversation. "Oh right. Bumblebee, may I ask a favor?"

Bumblebee turned his optics her way and nodded. "Could I go with you when you go to pick up Sam and Mikaela from school, and maybe if possible go a little early? I wanted to pick up some food, as I don't think the few cans of pop will last me to tomorrow." Hana explained.

Bumblebee agreed saying it was no problem. Hana then went back to the arms room to finish her sketches. About 4 later she had finished and was preparing to leave. She met Bee outside and once he transformed the two were off. It took her a while to get used to having her hand on the steering wheel when she wasn't actually driving but by the time they reached the other traffic she got the hang of it. Bumblebee dropped Hana off at one of the stores that was only a few blocks away from the school and then headed back to wait for Sam and Mikaela.

"Man I'm hungry." Hana complained to herself. "I'll have to get stuff that doesn't need to be cooked as I highly doubt that they have a microwave."

Hana walked down one of the isles looking at the different items on the shelves. She thought of picking up a fruit tray, which would last a while, but she knew she'd need more then that as she had a biiiig appetite. She grabbed a package of rolls and some other small stuff. Then she turned to head down to the refrigerated section. However when she turned around she accidentally bumped into someone.

"Oh I'm sorry! I didn't mean to run into you!" Hana hurriedly apologized.

"No problem."

Hana took in the appearance of the girl as she left but didn't get to good of a look at her. She noticed that the girl had black hair not quite down to her shoulder and had a red part in the front. The girl was taller then Hana but not by much. Hana shrugged it off and continued on her way. On her way out Hana had grabbed a bag of peach flavored Campinos…for the long trip she'd be taking tomorrow. After paying for her stuff at the cash she left and went across the parking lot towards the sidewalk. She walked along the sidewalk for a few minutes and then stopped at a cross walk. She noticed that the light was still green for the cars so she waited and watched them as they went by. She noticed a police car go by last before the light turned yellow.

"Huh?" As the black and white police car went by she noticed something out of the corner of her eye. She looked at the back end of the car and noticed words written in silver. "To Punish and Enslave". Ether someone really hated his/her job, or that was Barricade. She voted on the latter.

'Hmm. I wonder what he's up too.' She thought as she started to cross the street. 'Well whatever it is I'd best hurry back to Bumblebee and the others. I gotta tell the Autobots. Barricade is back.'

Well that's chapter 3. Hopefully I didn't do to badly. I'm gonna try and pick up the pace so if all goes well. Anyway I hope you all like the chapter and R&R.
