"Well this officially reeks," Niño juggled a toilet paper ball.
"Hey Sexton," a police officer walked over to his cell and opened the door, "Your bail's been paid. Guess even guys like you have friends. Who knew?"
"I didn't. I don't know anyone with that kinda scratch. Who paid?"
"Can't say. Anonymous." The guard walked Niño out. Just then a mail-bot walked up.
"Niño Sexton?" it asked.
"Who want to know?" The bot shoved the package into his arms.
"This is from a friend," the mail-bot then walked off. Niño took a peek inside to see his very own orange and black colored cyber suit.

"Bumblebee, slow down. And try not to call attention to yourself," Prowl tried to convince Bumblebee. Bumblebee meanwhile was skating using his motorized wheels like a professional ice-skater.
"As much as I'd like to do that, I'm having too much fun doing the opposite," Bumblebee did a figure eight on the sidewalk.
"The point of the exercise is to blend in."
"Right, cuz nothing says 'blend' like a guy in a ninja suit." Prowl activated his holograph generator. The holograph wrapped around him and made him appear to be in a motorcycle police officer's outfit.
"Happy?"
"Look, the point of this is simple. 'Why hide when you can accelerate?" Bumblebee sped forward, but wasn't looking so he bumped into a very large, muscular man.
"Hey!" he barked, "You little punk! I'm gonna rearrange your face!" he picked up Bumblebee by the collar and raised a fist, but Prowl, still in his officer's suit, put down the hand.
"It's okay, I'll take care of him," he said.
"Nah, it's okay," the man's red face softened, "I've been feeling bad all week. Ya know? It's just been one of those days. I was just ready to EXPLODE!"
"I understand entirely."
"Look, it's okay. He's just a kid. Say, you okay?" the man brushed some dust off Bumblebee's shoulder. Bumblebee nodded in disbelief. He was still stuck on the "face rearrangement" threat.
"Okay, take care," the man said then walked off.
"So, did you learn anything from this?" Prowl crossed his arms. Bumblebee shook his head.
"Nope. Not a thing."
"The point is that there will be times when you can't accelerate, and you'll have to—" Prowl's lesson was interrupted by police cars flashing by with sirens blaring.
"Oops, looks like we'll have to finish this lesson later," Bumblebee sped off on his motor wheels.

An orange and black blur ran through town, going into and out of banks in seconds. And when it would leave, hundreds of dollars worth would be gone.
"Hey! Where's my money!" one customer demanded.
"It just disappeared! In a nanosec!" the clerk answered. Niño Sexton stopped outside the bank, carrying bag loads of money.
"Nanosec eh? I like the sound of that," the newly named Nanosec sped off. He looked back to see some police cars following him.
"Goodness, the police? How ever shall I allude them?" he asked sarcastically, "Oh yeah, like this." He kicked it into overdrive but was stopped by a yellow jacketed Autobot.
"You again?!" Bumblebee and Nanosec said at once.
"Definitely lose the suit. It looks totally ridiculous," Bumblebee said. Nanosec didn't bother to exchange banter and ran off.
"That's fast…" Bumblebee gasped.
***************************************************************
Nanosec slowed to a stop.
"Why this stuff gotta be so heavy?" he asked aloud. He set the bags down to take a breather. Just then, two shuriken smacked him in his backpack knocking him down. He looked up to see Prowl standing on the high-rise road above.
"Word of wisdom: super speed doesn't equal super strength," Prowl leapt down and kicked Nanosec down. He placed his foot on his chest. Nanosec struggled, but Prowl pressed harder.
"Staaay."
"I don't do stay!" Nanosec said defiantly. He kicked Prowl's calf. Prowl jumped up and grabbed his leg. Nanosec picked up the bags and once again ran off.
***************************************************************
"Step aside ninja-man!" Bumblebee sped past Prowl on his motorized heel-wheels, "This calls for speed! Not stealth." He chased after Nanosec and managed to keep up. "I'm the fastest Autobot alive and no two-bit crook is gonna take that away from me!"
"We'll just see about that!" Nanosec ran over some train tracks just as the road-blockers lowered.
"I can make it! I can make it!" Bumblebee repeated this in his head. He saw the train coming and tried to skid but he was moving too fast. "I'm not GONNA MAKE IT!" He tripped on the train track and fell to the ground. He stared in horror at the oncoming train…
