Sorry that I can't update regularly. It's a combination of school stress, and simple laziness. Reviews help keep me motivated.


"What the frag are they?" Ironhide wondered aloud. The auto-bots took a moment to admire the amazing feats these humans were accomplishing. The blond male was kicking cars out of the air with great strength and the orange-haired female was creating a cloud from a metal rod. The black-haired woman seemed to simply be standing there, but a closer look in the direction she was concentrating in revealed limbs growing out of the ground, shielding the citizens. But the last one, well the last one was more than a hundred yards in the air, warping along with the decepticon and laughing as though it were a park ride.

"Graaaaaahh!" Barricade took advantage of their distraction to tackle Ironhide, and a battle between the decepticon, Ironhide and Optimus began. The twins started climbing a nearby building to see if they could help Luffy. Sound-wave hovered above the city, recording the battle for future reference. Even he was amazed at these fleshlings, despite how disgusted he was towards their entire species.

Meanwhile, Luffy had managed to smash his way into Skywarp's cockpit, his eyes lighting up at all the shiny buttons and switches just begging to be tampered with. Skywarp suddenly felt dread wash over him. "Don't you DARE, fleshling!" His warning fell on deaf ears, however, as Luffy started pulling levers and pressing coloured buttons. Including the red ones; especially the red ones. "What's this do? and this? ooh can I fly? where's the weapon stuff?" Pretty soon, the poor jet was spinning out of control. His sensors going hay-wire.

The twins paused, having been climbing a nearby building to get Skywarp in range of their weapons, to watch as a set of flares (meant to counter heat-seeking missiles) were launched. They flew around randomly, and one collided with a distracted Soundwave, destroying his right optics. The twins cheered as the saw the blast. Quickly disabling the pain receptors around his optics, Soundwave sent out an encrypted beacon; requesting backup. Then he dropped down to aid Barricade, who was being pinned down by Ironhide's cannon-fire.

Once he lost interest in the fleeing civilians, Shockwave started firing at Sanji, who was moving around, avoiding the shots with ease. "Is that the best you've got? I'm gonna melt you down, and turn you into cutlery and pots!" Sanji taunted. Robin, seeing that the boys were having no trouble, perched herself on a piece of nearby rubble to read. She occasionally glanced up, or used her powers to block incoming debris.

Nami had just finished growing her thunder-head when Starscream arrived. Starscream paused to take in the situation. Soundwave and Barricade were engaged with Optimus and Ironhide, and appeared to be losing. Shockwave was literally being kicked around by a blond male fleshling. And to top it off, Skywarp appeared to have lost control of himself; and was flying erratically, narrowly missing several buildings of crashing right into the ground. Furious, Starscream. "What the pit is going on here? Why are you all being defeated by these inferior fleshlings? It should be a simple task to crush them!"

"What_do_you_think_were_trying_to_do?" Skywarp asked haltingly between swerves and barrel rolls. "That's_it!_Get_the_frag_out_of_me!" Finally, Skywarp managed to eject the mad squishy, immediately rushing to Starscream before he could get back on. Nami smirked. "The weather forecast today is thunder and lightning, make sure not to touch any metal." The low cloud she had made released its charge, electrocuting both seekers. "Oh, that's right. You are metal." Nami laughed.

The battle lasted only minutes after that. "Decepticons, retreat!" Starscream called, painfully transforming into his alt mode. The others were all to happy to follow that order, breaking away at the first opportunity.

Sunstreaker and Sideswipe walked back to the others, laughing along with Luffy about his doomed attempt at 'flying' a jet. They had caught him out of the air after he was thrown out by Skywarp. "And what did you do to get him to start flapping his wings, anyway?" Sides asked. "How should I know? Shishishi. Oh, hey you guys." Luffy jumped down to greet his friends.

The auto-bots just watched them curiously. They were the strangest humans they had ever come across. Little did they know that there was to be more of them to come. "Alright, I think we need to will all need to provide some explanations. But that can wait until we are all somewhere secure." Optimus said, quickly gaining everyone's attention. They agreed to meet up at the Thousand Sunny, with Robin guiding the Auto-bots and Nest, and the Luffy Sanji and Nami going ahead to inform the others. Plan in place, the bots shifted down, taking a few minutes to rest before heading out. Finally, Optimus opened the passenger side door. "I think it's time we get going. Are you ready, Ms. Nico?" Robin smiled slightly. "Of course. And please, call me robin."
