Normal point of view

To say that Sunny and Sides were up to something was an understatement. I've only seen them a few times in the last two days. It seems like they're trying to avoid me, and when they are around me they only ask about the wedding. My mom was right, planning the wedding takes a lot of work and compromise on both parts. But it'll all be worth it when it finally happens. Anywhoo, Bee and I bridged back to Burque to pick up my parents and my friends. I'm not sure how they convinced their parents to let them spend Christmas with us but I don't care. I'm just happy to see them again. Bee would be picking up my parents and my brother from my house and I would be picking up my friends at Terrin's house. As soon as I got there I schooled my face. I used a slight variation of my holoform, making myself look more responsible and political so Terrin's parents wouldn't recognize me and freak out.

Me: "Hello . I was sent by your brother to collect your daughter and her friends."

Mrs. Lennox: "Yes, can I see some I.D?"

I showed her my I.D letting her look at it thoroughly. After a few minutes she smiled and called up to Terrin and the others.

Mrs. Lennox: "Terrin, girls it's time to go!"

Terrin: "All righty then. I love you mom. See you soon!"

Mrs. Lennox: "Don't stay up too late or eat too many sweets! I love you too! Have a safe trip!"

She called as I allowed the three to put their suitcases into my trunk. Once they were in I commed Bee, making sure that the radio was off.

{Me: "Okay I got the girls. Do you have my family?"}

{Bee: "You know it! Race you back to base!"}

{Me: "Oh no you don't! You can't goad me into racing you! Besides what would my parents say?"}

{Bee: "It was their idea! C'mon, Please?"}

{Me: "Hold on a sec...my passengers are unusually quiet."}

I said as looked to see my friends absent mindedly looking out the window. They looked worried.

Me: "Okay spill. what's wrong with you three?"

Lilith: "We're worried about our friends. We haven't seen them in a long time, and we hope that they are alright."

Me: "Aww. We missed you too!"

I said as I let my normal holoform show. We were on the forty leaving Burque. Anyone who would see me probably wouldn't recognize me, and if they did they would think that they were seeing things.

Sheila: "Oh my God! Ara! It's you!"

Me: "The one and only. Who else did you think Lennox would send if he didn't come and get you himself?"

Terrin: "Wait-"

Me: "Terrin, you had a crush on Cooper when we were in fourth grade."

Terrin: "So it IS you! So what my uncle said was true... you really did die and come back as something else."

Me: "Yeah, well take a good look around, cause you're sitting in it!"

Sheila: "You came back as a car!?"

Lilith: "Oh God it's just like Christine! I don't wanna die!"

Me: "No you're not gonna die. And you are only half right. Tia and I came back as Cybertronians, of which can transform into cars and such to blend in. Right now you're seeing my holoform. "

Terrin: "Okay so Tia is okay. Wait there are more of you?"

Me: "Yes in fact if you look outside to your left, you'll see a yellow Camaro. He's currently driving my parents and brother."

Sheila: "No way!"

Bee: "Way!"

He said as I turned on the radio.

Me: "What?"

Kyler: "He said that he is way faster than you!"

Me: "Uhhh no. Bee don't lie to yourself."

Bee: "I am so much faster than you!"

Me: "Says the Chevy to the car named after an animal that's known for speed."

Bee pulled ahead of me, trying to goad me into a race.

Bee: "Who's that trying to talk to me? Standin' over there like a wanna be?"

Me: "Oh Hell no! Ladies brace yourself!"

I said as I sped up. It wasn't hard to pass him. as soon as I did though he began to pace me. I easily passed him and kept going, scanners checking for cops as I went. Just when I thought that I was ahead he passed me. What's worse is that we entered a tunnel, so I couldn't get in front of him. Wait a minute...

Me: "Girls have any of you played the new Mario Kart?"

Lilith: "Uh yeah! The graphics are amazing! And the new courses are freakin awesome! I don't know what caused them to think of anti gravity but it is so cool to drive with! I wish I could that do in real life!"

Me: "Wish granted! Hold on tight!"

I said as I drove up the wall onto the ceiling. I accelerated as fast as I could so that I wouldn't land on Bee. Right before we left the tunnel I landed in front of Bee with a thud. As fast as I could I turned around and began driving in reverse.

Me: "And the crowd goes I'm superstar and I got a cool car and the girls like me better than whoever you are!"

Bee: "Oh hell no!"

The look on his face was priceless! My family was trying desperately in vain to hold in their laughter. They knew that I raced, I stopped by time to time to say hi and such. So I've already been scolded. I whipped myself back around just barely missing a semi.

Me: "Catch me if you can Bee!"

I said as I took an off ramp to the dirt road that lead to our ground bridge site.

Terrin,Sheila,Lilith: "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!"

Me: "The finish line! Relax the portal won't hurt you."

I said as I flew through the ground bridge. Once on the other side I slowed down so that I wouldn't get yelled at by Prowl, or anyone else for that matter.

Me: "Welcome to the Autobot base. This is where Tia and I live, train and do anything else one might do with their free time."

I said as I drove into the rec room. Bee pulled up behind me and Revved his engine.

Bee: "Nicely done...young grasshopper!...I...can't believe that I lost."

Me: "Three things caused that to happen. 1) I'm a Californian. We know how to drive and drive fast. 2) I am just as big and loud as you, actually I'm louder than you. 3) You know who I hang out with. You shouldn't be surprised by the tricks I learned from them. And from all of the fast and furious movies."

Bee revved his engine loudly, trying to show that he was louder. I shot back with my signature roar, one that shook my frame violently. Mikaela walked up to us laughing.

Mikaela: "Bee, you'll get her back. Don't worry you just had an off day."

Bee: "I know...Gonna sulk...car wash yeah!"

He said as he dropped off my parents and drove away. No doubt he'll want to race me again, and I'll be ready.

Me: "Hey Kaela. I want you to meet some friends of mine. Terrin, Sheila, Lilith, this is Mikaela. She has saved the world twice and is a master prankster."

Terrin: "You saved the world?"

Mikaela: "Well, yeah I helped. Now I'm the bots cosmetic surgeon."

Lilith: "But you're so young! How old were you when this happened?"

Sheila: "I don't remember anything major happening lately."

Mikaela: "Well It happened a few years ago. Actually I wasn't much older than you guys when I helped the bots the first time."

Terrin: "Wow! Wait a minute, that was like a few years ago, and Uncle will became Captain...then he became Major...Oh I'M GONNA SLAP HIM WHEN I NEXT SEE HIM! Ooooo that, that, piece of flying spam! He went so far as to nearly beat into me not to lie when I was little and he's made a career of it!"

Me: "Ter, it's not like he had a choice. No one can know that we exist. The amount of paperwork and meetings it took to allow you guys and my parents to know alone, has nearly given him an ulcer."

Sheila: "Wait so, we're not supposed to know you're alive and well? How screwed up is that?!"

Me: "Very. But it's out of my servos."

I said as I let Mikaela into my drivers seat. I gave them the grand tour while explaining all I could about Tia and I. Mikaela usually brought up things I forgot, including the fact that she, Tia, and I were going to be married. I'm not sure how I forgot that little detail. We were passing the training room when I heard a very loud and angry grunt. Followed by two peoples screams of terror and pain. And the strangest song was playing.

Lilith: "Is that the song from Paul Blart Mall cop?"

Tia: "I WANT THE NAMES OF THE SLAGGER'S WHO DID THIS TO ME! NOW!"

Skids: "Please! It wasn us!"

Mudflap: "An I don think it was those other twins either!"

Tia: "THEN WHO DID IT?! SANTA CLAUSE?!"

Skids: "Who's tha dude?"

SMACK!

Skids: "Ahh-ahahahhhhh!

Tia: "TELL ME WHO DID THIS OR YOU WILL SUFFER A WORSE FATE!"

Mudflap: "Buh, we can't tell! He'll-"

Tia grabbed him by the throat and lifted him off the ground.

Tia: "I. WANT. NAMES. YOU HAVE TO THE COUNT OF TEN BEFORE I CRUSH THEM OUT OF YOUR WINDPIPE! NINE!"

Skids: "All righ, all righ, all righ! It was Jazz! He did it! Said something bout dressing you down fo failing two exercises back ta back."

Mudflap: "Yeah! Yeah! An Mirage helped!"

Tia: "Those fraggers! Ooooooooo! That dose it! You two get outta my sight before I take my rage out on you! NOW!

She screamed as she threw Skids down, I let the girls out and transformed. I wrapped her in a hug. She seemed really mad.

Me: "You okay?"

Tia: "I've been better. Jazz decided to set my speakers to play only one song, and I think it's time I get a little revenge on him."

Me: "Here, let me open the back of your helm and see what he did, with any luck we wont have to see Ratchet for this. What song is it?"

Tia: "Rasheeda; My bubble gum."

Me: "Yikes! Well at last he has a sense of humor, and decent rewiring skills. Why don't you talk to the girls while I try to undo this."

Tia: "Oh hey guys! How long have you been standing there?"

Sheila: "Oh for like two minutes?"

Lilith: "Tia? Oh my God! You're huge!"

Tia: "Yeah I am. Don't worry I'm not always this big, only when I'm in my bipedal mode. I'll give you a hug when I can transform into my pretender mode. I take it that Bella told you guys everything?"

Terrin: "Yeah pretty much. Mikaela told us that you and Ara are engaged!"

Tia: "Mmhmm. Indeed we are. You'll meet them soon."

Me: "Got it! Okay Tia. Try your speakers now."

She did so and a random song rang out.

Tia: "YES! Thank you coach! I will take my revenge tonight. Thanks to a friend."

She cheered as she transformed down into her pretender mode. She ran up to them. While she was engaged in conversation I figured that now would be a good time to tell Elita about my calculations. While I was driving through Burque, I did some calculations on how long it would be before the Decepticons would attack again. If I was right, then they would attack either today or in the next few days because they know that we would be celebrating the holidays and that we would be vulnerable.

{Me: " Elita...I hate to bother you but can I speak with you for a minute?"}

{Elita: "What seems to be the problem?"}

{Me: "I fear that the Decepticons may attack soon, they have been unusually quiet, and they know that we are adapting to our allies' culture. According to my calculations, they should attack either today or in the very near future."}

{Elita: "Okay. I will keep that in mind. Meanwhile you should try and enjoy your free time with your friends. Remember to enjoy the small things when you can."}

{Me: "Thanks. I will. Arabella out."}

When I looked up I saw that Tia was introducing Arcee and Chromia to the girls.

Terrin: "So what do you guys do, aside from beating up your enemies?"

Arcee: "We train, pull pranks, and tell stories. There is still much to learn about this planet, and its inhabitants."

Chromia: "Indeed. Like for example why Tia calls Arabella coach and what cheerleading is. I have heard Sam on occasion talk about cheerleaders."

Mikaela: "Oh he has, has he? What did he say?"

Chromia: "Only that they are mean and tend to be stuck up. I am not sure why he sees fit to group a whole group of beings together by that information."

Mikaela: "That better be all that he said."

Lilith: "The reason why Tia calls Ara, coach is because she like I were a part of her cheerleading team when they were human. Cheerleading is a sport where girls and boys act peppy and shout chants about their home team to try and get the crowd hyped. We are an exclusive club team, meaning that we don't belong to a school. We compete with other teams like us."

Tia: "And if I'm right you guys are kicking ass and taking names. Who's the new coach?"

Terrin: "You're looking at her."

Me: "Are you serious? No way!"

Sheila: "Way. She stole the position from Lauren too."

Me: "Thank you. That makes me feel better. How are the mini's and the she devil."

Lilith: "Oh the mini's are fine, we miss you two greatly but we're still doing okay."

Sheila: "Unfortunately without you at school to bust her chops, Lauren has taken over and established her dominance. And he talks bad about you. She's lucky that you're "dead"."

Me: "You know you're right. She's lucky that Autobots aren't allowed to harm humans. Boy if I could, I would so... aggh!"

Arcee: "So I presume this "she devil" is a cheerleader?"

Me: "No, she would give the sport a bad name. Though the title of 'head bitch" fits her perfectly."

Chromia: "So I take that your battle skills spawn from those of your cheerleading skills. That is interesting. Though many have likened dance to that of battle maneuvers."

Terrin: "You can still do all that stuff? No way! I don't for one minute believe that either of you could do the splits let alone herkies or back handsprings!"

Tia: "Prepare to be proved wrong!"

Sunstreaker's point of view

We had all of Bella's presents wrapped and ready to go for tomorrow. With our extra time, Sides and I decided to make the base more "festive". Ironhide was easy. He's a heavy recharger and he only rolled over once when Sides and I were painting him. Once he was rolled over we gave ourselves access to his processor and cpu. Again, he made it too easy. Once we finished up in his helm, we set to work tampering with his cannons. In all it took about two hours to decorate the big guy. We next went to Ratchet's Medbay. Thankfully he was in a meeting with Will, and Optimus and they hadn't gotten out yet.

Sides: "Hurry up Sunny! They don't have to be perfect!"

Me: "Say's you! You always do things half aft!"

Sides: "You forget that those are his throwing wrenches. Do you really want them to be perfectly candy striped when they hit us?"

Me: "Touché! That being said, who says that he will throw them at us? He may thank us for getting him into the spirit of the holidays!"

Sides: "You wanna tell him that to his face?! Cause he's rounding the corner!"

Me: "Slag! What are-"

Sides: "Oh slag! Hide!"

Me: "Duh! Of course we shoul-"

[Sides: "No IRONHIDE! Let's get into the ducts!"]

[Me: "Quick! I can hear them closing in!"]

I hissed through the bond as we squoze into the duct over head. Not a second later we could hear Ratchet chuckling about what we did to Ironhide.

Ratchet: "So let me get this straight, you can't say any other words outside of Ho?"

Ironhide: "Ho! Ho, Ho, Ho!"

It was hard not to laugh. He looked just like Santa, and as we programed, he could say nothing outside of ho ho ho. Ratchet was trying, and failing in his attempts not to laugh at him.

Ratchet: "Okay...okay...okay. You're right this isn't funny. Now let me get my tools and I'll- OH THOSE FRAGGING SLAGGERS!"

Ironhide: "Ho Ho Ho? Ho HO Ho Ho Ho!"

Ratchet: "I call Sunstreaker! I know his painting skills anywhere!"

He shouted as they left the Medbay to hunt us down. We began to crawl quietly through the ducts watching through the grates for Hide and Ratchet.

[Sides: "Okay, so where should we hide?"]

[Me: "Simple. Where Bella is. She'll give us an alibi if needed."]

[Sides: "Good idea. Hey you notice that she has a purple ring around her optics?"]

[Me: "Yeah, I like it though. It's pretty. If I could mix paint to match it I would."]

[Sides: "What would you name it?"]

[Me: "Ara-lectric lavender."]

[Sides: "Ooooo! That's pretty."]

He said as we discreetly crept out of the air ducts in the training room. Bella was in he middle of a dance. She was twirling around and flicking her wings. They look really shiny, almost like she had them polished four times over. Her wings, I've never seen them move like that before.

Bella: "I beg of youu-huuu! Don't go wasting your emotions. Lay all your love on meeeee! Don't go sharing your devotions! Lay all your love on meeeeee!"

She was singing. It was so enticing. I looked at Sides and I saw that like me, his jaw was open and he was staring with a happy look on his face plates. Then the most wonderful smell hit us. It smelled like honeysuckle and magnolias and lavender and cookies and pie and polish. In all it smelt like pure joy and happiness. We continued to watch her as she flicked her wings left and right. Almost like she was trying to make people pay attention to them. It was working. Her wings look gorgeous as does she. As soon as she finished she bowed to her friends. I remember them. They encouraged Bella to talk to us, all those months ago.

Terrin: "Okay...I stand corrected. You two can still do tumbling. And you're still better at it than most professionals."

Me: "You should see them on the battlefield. It's intense."

Sheila: "SWEET JUJUBEES!"

Lilith: "Where, the heck did you two come from?!"

Sides: "Kaon. But more recently the air ducts, and if anyone asks we were here with you the whole time."

Terrin: "Your voices sound familiar..."

Bella: "Ah, there you are! Ladies these are my fiancé's. You have met them prior to now, but in a different form."

Sides and I projected our holoforms. The looks on their faces were priceless!

Sides: "Nice to see you again, Sheila, Terrin, Lilith."

Sheila: "No. Fucking. Way."

Terrin: "Ara, I now officially hate you. LIFE IS SO UNFAIR!"

Bella: "It's fair, just not towards you right now."

She said as she gave us a hug. We couldn't help ourselves. we began to cuddle her, while kissing her up and down her face. She just smelled so good and her wings were so shiny and... we needed some love.

Lilith: "Uh, is this normal for them to do that?"

Tia: "Meh, it's just pda. They are like super protective of her but what can you expect? They found their literal soul mate, as have I."

Terrin: "Now when you say that-"

Tia: "I mean it literally. When our species sparkmates or marries, it means that our souls intertwine for the remainder of our lives. And since Sunny and Sides are literally two halves to one whole It's rare that they would find someone they both love and who loves them back."

She said to the three stunned girls. As soon as she said it, Jolt walked into the training room.

Jolt: "Uh, you three do know that Prowl has rules for public displays of affection right?"

Tia: "Awww! But I wanted a hug!"

Jolt: "Rules are meant to be broken from time to time right?"

He said as he pulled her into a snuggle.

Terrin: "And you would be?"

Sides: "That is Jolt, our junior medic and Tia's Sparkmate to be."

Lilith: "And what do you two do?"

Me: "We are the finest front liners of the Autobot faction."

Bella: "And the greatest pranksters, but I'm biased."

Sides: "We're also-"

Ratchet: "IN A LOT OF TROUBLE!"

He shouted as he threw a candy striped wrench at us. We dodged the first and ran as he threw the second.

Ratchet: "HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU TWO TO STAY OUT OF MY MEDBAY?!"

Sides: "Awww c'mon Ratch! Lighten up!"

Me: "Idiot! Why would you-"

CLANG!

Me: "Owwwww! My helm! My paint!"

Ratchet: "You have bigger problems to worry about than your fragging paint!"

He shouted as Ironhide rounded the corner, with Will and the others in tow. Great.

Ironhide: "Ho Ho Ho...HO HO HOOOO!"

He shouted as he aimed his cannons at us. As we had planned when he fired all that came out was confetti, and candy. Hide looked at his cannons in awe, that awe turned into rage quickly as he tackled Sides and I to the ground.

Sheila: "Uhhhh. Is Santa going to hurt them?"

Bella: "I'm not sure. Ratchet might though."

Terrin: "What was the reason for the prank?"

Sides: "Tis the season not to have or need a reason!"

He shouted as Hide hefted us over his shoulders.

Ratchet: "I better knock those dents out, and I might as well give you a service while I'm at it."

Me: "But we feel fine! Please put us down! Let us go!"

Sides: "Noooooo! I don't want a check up!"

Will: "Aw stop being sparklings! Take your punishment like a mech!"

He shouted at us as Ironhide carried us out. Bella wouldn't be able to save us, so we might as well go out fighting.

S.S: "NOOOOOOOOO! PUT ME DOOOOOWWNNNN! NOOOOOOOOOO!"

Normal point of view

Tia couldn't help but snicker as the twins were carried out screaming and fighting. Poor guys but who am I to stop Hide and Hatchet when they're angry? I don't want a forced check up, that's for sure.

Will: "HU-AH!"

Terrin: "HU-AH!"

She greeted back. I couldn't help myself.

Me: "Pfffft! (Snicker) Ya'll really need to stop doing that!"

Will: "My base, my family. We'll sound off when we want."

Me: "Fine who am I to stop you two from sounding crazy?"

Prime cleared his throat indicating that A) He was in the room, and B) That he thought now was a good time to introduce his team.

Me: "My apologies sir. Ladies This is Optimus Prime, Leader of the Autobots. Sir these are Tia and I's friends, Terrin Lennox, Sheila Bates, and Lilith Fergusson."

Prime: "It is quite nice to meet all of you. As you have met our weapons specialist and our CMO I shall not introduce them at this moment. However Please allow me to introduce you to my team and its female branch."

The introductions went well. Their faces lit up as each new mech or femme was called out, ending with Jazz and Mirage. The two thought that they would try and be smooth. Those shameless flirts!

Jazz: "Mah, mah Tia! Ya never said tha your friends would be this beautiful!"

He said looking at Terrin, who was blushing furiously.

Mirage: "Ciao splendida creatura. Si prega posso avere un bacio?"

Translation; Hello gorgeous creature. Please may I have a kiss?

He said to Sheila, while his holoform gently grabbed her hand. Will's face couldn't have been redder. He knew how they can be. I think his over-protective-father mode was in full force. He was about to say something when Sheila spoke up.

Sheila: "Che bel nome. Puoi baciare me, se volete."

Translation; What a lovely name. You may kiss me if you like.

Sheila, was born and raised on a military base in Italy, until she moved to Albuquerque in the 5th grade. Her mother is Italian and so naturally, like what my mom did with my brother and I she taught her daughter to speak her native tongue fluently.

Mirage was taken aback, by this, but not for long as he dipped her into a quick kiss soon after. She giggled when she stood up.

Mirage: "Maybe there is more to this planet then I previously thought."

Tia: "Oh for the love of Primus!"

She shouted as she pushed him out of the way.

Will: "And on that note, I say we head to bed. Santa needs to drop off his gifts."

Terrin: "You're just saying that because-"

Will: "Maybe I am, maybe I'm not...lets go, everybody out and to bed!"

Third person point of view

T'was the night before Christmas...well technically it was after midnight so it was the morning of Christmas...and all through the base not a being was stirring with the exception of three moving at a quick pace. Tia had gathered her supplies and with a quiet and gentle hand, mounted Jazz by his aft to the ceiling making him look quite grand. She carefully glued and stuck crystals here and there, unaware that in another part of base some one was stirring. Bella was awake, but in a trance, her optics looked purple at first glance. She had spent weeks picking out gifts for her loved ones, and was almost done, all that was left was a cute gift and a shiny one. So she carefully crept into Will's quarters and took the heavy man from his bed. Dressing him up in a cute guise that would surely make him turn red. With the Major wrapped and stowed under the tree, she saw the last of the three. Sunstreaker gleamed in the night, his armor showed his pretty gold color just right. He was stowing gifts just as Bella was. Unfortunately for him his back was turned and he did not see his beloved as she turned, with a loaded stasis gun. With a few quick darts he crumpled to the floor, and Bella ran up happy that she could wrap one gift more. With Sunny in a large silver box tied with a big red bow Bella crept back to her room, where into recharge she would go.

Authors note: Hey all! Sorry if this chapter is rushed, but ah... I was on vay-cay and I saw the greatest things. So I was in Phoenix, specifically Scottsdale. I saw TWO corvettes... one yellow and one red following each other. And then not a minute later I saw a YELLOW LAMBORGHINI! I squealed and nearly cried, everyone in the car with me just stared at me as I fan-girled. So it's easy to say that the twins reside in Scottsdale...it makes perfect sense. The weather is warm and there is a car wash or detail business on nearly every corner! (let me know what you think of what I saw... I'm seriously not lying!) Ah enough about that. I hope you like the chapter please let me know what you think of it. Please Rate,Review,Follow, and Favorite if you can and want to!

Lack of Peace, plenty of love, and long live the terror twins for causing the first two sayings!

CLYL! ❤💛💙
