AN: Maybe Kanaye was introduced a bit quick, and does it look like he's up to no good, trying to get her to go with him.

But understand he's lost his sister tragically long ago. Because he didn't believe she was dead, he has been trying to find her for years. He's very, very happy to finally have find her and he can't wait to bring her home and show the other Azori'jins he was right al along.

Don't worry, the following chapters won't just be about her being on Azoria. I'll tell it from the Transformers point of view. And it will like only be a chapter before she's back again.


On our way back home I couldn't talk to Dad about my encounter with my brother. Everybody was busy fixing up the injured Autobots. Dad can really do anything. He's not just a leader, also a doctor, a mechanic, a scientist and a warrior.

I stayed out of everybody's way and lay down in the repair-bay so I could see all what was going on.

Dad was fixing others and he wasn't even fixed himself. I wished I could do more around here. But as long as I was just a dog, I couldn't do a lot. Kanaye could teach me a lot about being an Azori'jin.

Al seemed like a dream. Maybe it was a dream. What if I had been shot by Starscream and had been unconscious all the time…

A shadow fell over me and I looked up from my thoughts . It was Hot Rod. Nah… I was definitely not dreaming.

"Are you alright, Lucky?" he checked up on me with his cheerful smile.

I barked and waggled my tail. I was gonna miss him sooo much! When he saw I was fine he went back to help the others.

Back on Earth it took me a while to get Dad all to myself, but I finally managed to get him away from everybody to go for a drive.

"What's bugging you, Alyx?" he asked me even before we had left Autobot city and I was still in my dog-self.

I shrugged my shoulders and as soon as we were out of sight I transformed to my own self.

"Were you traumatized by the battle on the asteroid?"

"No," I grinned. "Ran into Starscream, just after you dropped me off"

"WHAT?! Starscream? What did he want?"

"He's on to me, Dad."

"Oh no… Why did you not call me for help? Did you shortcut his circuits?"

"No, I couldn't do anything, I had to run for it. And then he fell to the ground. Someone else had disabled his movements or something like that."

"Who?"

"Another Azori'jin, Dad, just like me."

Prime hit the brakes. "An other Azori'jin?! In this solar-system?"

I nodded. "But don't worry, he won't cause any trouble. He's my brother. Or he said he is. And I can remember him vaguely."

"Your brother??"

"Turns out he's been looking for me for years."

"Hmmm." He drove off again.

I looked out of Dad's windows for a while and then I finally said: "He'd like to take me home with him."

Dad didn't reply for a while. I listened to the sound of his powerful engine.

"Do you want to go?"

"I need to go! Starscream is on to me! He wanted to use me to take Megatron's place as leader of the Decepticons. And I'm sure he'll try to get his hands on me again."

"I'd be surprised if he didn't."

"I won't go any longer than necessary. And I'd love to see where I came from! I can learn lot's of things I'm supposed to be able to do. And when I do, the Decepticons won't be a threat to me anymore. And I can tell all my friends who I am. And we might even be able to change Kup's view on Azori'jins." I enthusiastically told him.

"Sounds really great," he said.

I could hear he was somewhat shocked.

"It's not that I really want to leave … I have to … I'll miss you terribly…"

"You can always come back, right?"

"Of course I'll come back! I couldn't possibly stay away for ever. I just …" I looked down, hoping he wouldn't be too disappointed… after all he had done for me.

"What is it? You know you can tell me anything that's bothering you."

"Promise you won't get mad." I nervously fumbled with my fingers.

"Why would I…. never mind… I will not get mad at you." He said. "Well, unless you did something reckless or stupid of course…" he added to that just in case.

I grinned. "I didn't do anything. It's just that I don't want to be just the dog anymore. I want my friends to know who I am. I'd like them to stop bringing me doggy-biscuits. And I know you're trying to find a way to solve that… But I think I found a nice way to solve that too, with Kanaye's help."

"The Azori'jins can definitely teach you a lot more about yourself than I can. I'd say, go for it!"

"Oh, thank you Dad!" I said most grateful.

"Can I meet this Azori'jin?" He wanted to know.

"Yeah! He wants to meet you too. He was kinda shocked I called you Dad. But after I told him about you, he was alright with it."

I took out the device he had given me. "Want me to contact him?"

Dad nodded.

Half an hour later we were sitting at the lake where Hot Rod and Daniel liked to fish. They weren't around and they weren't gonna show up, Daniel was at school and Hot Rod was helping Kup with some technical computer stuff I didn't understand.

Prime gazed over the water that reflected the blue sky above. I looked up to him. He didn't seem completely at ease. Probably because of what Kup had told him about Azori'jins.

It was just a feeling I had around Kanaye that made me know his intentions were right.

Not to far from where we stood, a dolphin jumped out of the water a few times. It came towards us and jumped right out of the water over the land. Before it fell on the ground it transformed into Kanaye.

I let out a sigh. "Oh, it's you…"

"What amazing animals live on this planet!" Kanaye said enthusiastic.

Prime gave me a wondering look.

"That's Azori'jin." I told him.

"I can program our language in his mind so he can understand us. It won't do any damage."

"Can he program our language in your mind?" I asked Dad.

"I believe he already is…" He sensed the presence in his mind immediately as well as the added programming.

"KANAYE! You don't just mess around in his head like that! You will never win his trust if you do that just like that!"

"It's just a language?"

"Next time ASK!"

He shrugged his shoulders. "Very well."

Dad looked from me to Kanaye and back. "You do look a lot alike," he concluded.

"That's Optimus Prime," I introduced him to Kanaye. "The one I call Dad. Dad, this is Kanaye, my big brother."

"Pleased to meet you," Kanaye said with a light bow.

Prime knelt down on one knee and held out his finger – hand was too big - to Kanaye. "The pleasure is all mine."

"I'dlike to shake your hand… don't be alarmed." Kanaye said as he took his organic metal form. It really did look like a thick liquid running all over his body. When that transformation was done he started to grow larger and larger.

Me and Dad gazed at him, completely surprised. He grew until he had reached the height of Dad's shoulder. Dad got up and took the hand Kanaye held out to him.

"You have to teach me how to do that!" I exclaimed. "I want to be able to do that!"

Dad had a lot to ask Kanaye and Kanaye him. They talked until the sun started to set. I would leave tomorrow. Why wait? There was a whole new world for me to explore. We had a long trip ahead. Luckily Kanaye had a fast ship that could travel in sub-space.

Prime, Ironhide, Bumblebee, Spike and Carly were there when I said goodbye.

I gave them all a hug… Dad last… He picked me up and put me on his shoulder so I could give him a most personal hug right on his face.

"I wish I could say goodbye to the others, too…" I wiped away my tears, but I could not stop them from rolling down my cheeks.

"I'm sure they will miss you. And when you come back, I will introduce you to all of them as you are," he said.

"Promise?"

"Promise!"

I gave him a smile through my tears and he put me back on the ground. I must have looked back ten times before I completely got onto the ship. Kanaye just let me take my time.

And when we finally took off I must have kept waving until Earth was just a small ball in the darkness space.

"I'm so gonna miss you guys…" I whispered as I leaned my head against the small window next to my seat. "But I'll be back!"
