a/N: Sorry I took so long but I had to change the story.

Don't own TF

Chapter 2

Epps rubbed his hand behind his neck, before he dropped it to his side. "I'll tell you what you want to know, if you're ready."

Nathaniel sucked in a breath, giving a small nod. "I want to know."

"We found you," Epps started, "several years ago. We were on a classified mission with your father. We came to an abandoned warehouse, and inside there was a strange light that Galloway investigated. It was some sort of liquid metal body that we found." Nathaniel was hanging on to every word. "Galloway touched it. And it must have taken some of his DNA, because it formed a human baby. We had no idea what to do; Lennox and I couldn't take you, so Galloway was up for it. He made us swore that we wouldn't tell anyone, especially you, about who and what you are."

"You just did now, would you and Lennox refuse to tell me?"

"No," Epps said, taking a seat beside the boy. "For us, it's more of waiting for the right time to tell you and see how you're going to handle it. In which, I might add, you're doing better than I expected."

Nathaniel chuckled. "It's actually pretty neat to know I'm a robot, if that's what I am." Epps smiled. "I want to know if I have any robot powers, or if I can turn into one."

"I can help out with that. So would Lennox," Epps said. "We will practice at the base everyday until we figure this out."

_(Smokescreen Transition)_

Bumblebee and Smokescreen had their little investigation on the strange organic planet. They took on their vechile modes, trying to blend in with the life on the planet.

"Are you sure this planet is where the Allspark is?" Smokescreen asked, as he pulled beside Bumblebee on the highway.

"It is what Optimus said." Bumblebee sped up. "Do you have a reading of how far we are?"

"Thirty minutes before we reach our destination," Smokescreen calculated, as he pulled ahead of his teammate.

_(Smokescreen Transition)_

Epps had taken Nathaniel home so he could pack some of his clothes; he agreed to Epps' offer of staying with him for a bit, which he had no issue at all. The next couple of weeks were a based on a tight schedule: school, home, base...not specifically in that order. Galloway was home at the time and put up a stressful situtation which Epps assured him that the boy will be fine.

When they got back to the place, Epps said he was going to stay up for a bit and watch some of the football game that was on. Nathaniel took a shower before heading off to bed. He laid on the bed, staring up at the ceiling. He checked his phone a couple of times, there was a couple of messages from Sam and Galloway. So many thoughts were going through his head, it was becoming , he sent a heartful,mental message to whoever his real family were:

Have you abandoned me?

A/N: How was that?
