A/N: Here's chapter seven XD

Chapter 7

It's been a week since Epps offered Nathaniel to stay with him and he loved it. He loved not dealing with Galloway every single day and better yet, he knew of his real creators. The entire week, he went to the base right after school where Lennox, Epps and him were trying to figure out his past and see what he can do. Nathaniel was starting to pull in memories from the past and had a stronger communication bond with his creators that he spoke with every single orn. Sometimes twenty times a day...well, fifteen on the creators side and five on his. Epps was teaching him how to fight and Lennox was teaching him weapons and giving him obsticles.

"You think I'll be able to go all robot mode?" Nathaniel asked.

"Not sure," Lennox said. "But you are definitely quick on your feet."

Epps agreed. "Didn't you say your 'desgination' is Nightfire?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Well, since your going to be a bot-in-training, we should call you Nightfire for now on," Epps said. "Also what did you say about your 'creators'?"

"Jazz and Prowl; they said that there is a war and that they are searching for the Allsparkj-whatever that is." He paused before palming his forehead. "Crap. I didn't respond to them at all today."

Lennox chuckled. "Better do that so we don't have big bots coming here and kill everything because you didn't respond."

Nathaniel/Nightfire chuckled. Jazz? Prowl?

It's Sire and Carrier, my lil' Nightfire, Jazz responded in a happy and a relief tone.

Why did you not respond to us earlier? Prowl asked.

Sorry, I was training with Lennox and Epps.

"Nightfire," Epps called to him, making him snap back to Earth. "Wanna go get some food? Lennox is paying."

"Who says?" Lennox turned on him.

"I did."

"Of course I want food," Nightfire said after the two had their bickering.

Training? What type of training? Jazz asked curiously.

Combat plus weapons, I guess that's what you can call it. He started towards the two soliders who were still bickering as they were finishing gathering their things.

Ah, well, your Uncle Ironhide will be proud to here that, Prowl said.

Nightfire smiled at that. He stayed a couple steps behind Lennox and Epps, watching the two closely before shaking his head. Man, they sure act like children. For a few seconds he thought he thought to that himself before he got a very loud reply from Prowl and Jazz.

WHO?
_(Mirage Transition)_

Sam Witwicky couldn't figure out what was going on with Nathaniel. All he knew was that he was staying at Epps for a bit, but he barely seen him. When he does see him it's usually at school and he still won't talk. He got into his car, before pulling out his cellphone to text him.

S: Hey, r u busy?

N: No. Going 2 Subway with Lennox & Epps. Wanna join?

S: Sure. C U there.

With that Sam drove and he was going to find out what the hell was going on with Nathaniel.

The three waited outside for Sam to pull up which didn't take him long. Probably five or so minutes after Nightfire was done texting him. "You don't waste time," Nightfire smiled at him.

"He's getting free food," Epps intervened. "Of course he's going to speed here."

"Who's paying?" Sam asked them as they went inside the restaurant.

"Lennox," Nightfire and Epps said in union, causing Epps to sigh.

After the four ordered their subs and drinks, Sam moved closer to Nightfire, whispering, "Can we talk when we're done?"

"Sure," he sighed. "There's things I got to tell you anyways." They walked outside, being followed by the two adults. Nightfire turned to them. "Is it alright I go with Sam for a bit?"

Epps unwrapped his sandwich and took a bite. "Just be home by eleven." The soliders got in Epps' car and drove off.

Nightfire sighed, "There is a lot I got to tell you."

Sam nodded. "I know. I barely see you." He climbed in the car, prompting his friend to do the same.

"I'm planning to stay with Epps until I meet my creators," the boy named, Nathaniel, said to Sam. Bumblebee clicked into eavesdropping when 'creators' were mentioned. It was a Cybertronian term for parents, the question was: how did this boy know what the term was?

"Creators?" Bumblebee was definitely going to hang on every word to this conversation, but it was hard to hang on to every word and to stay out of site from the jet that was flying ahead. Damn Decepticons.

"Yeah. I-I just found out that I'm not from here."

"Oh...where are you from? Canada?"

"No." Nathaniel looked at him. "I'm from a different planet."

Bumblebee was really hooked on the conversation that he didn't realize he put himself in site of the Decepticon jet and swerved when he was being shot at, startling the boys. "SAM!"

"I don't know. The car just swerved!" Sam held on to the wheel tighter but it was controlling itself. He looked out the window. "WE ARE BEING SHOT AT!" Sam let go of the wheel, and both of them were amazed and freaked out of how the car was driving itself. The car drove to a remoted area outside the city before literally throwing the two boys out. Then it transformered.

It transformered into a robot.

"Starscream!" The black and yellow robot growled.

The jet landed, tackling the bot down, fighting and shooting at each other. Sam grabbed his friend's arm, running for cover. But Nightfire was remembering who that black and yellow bot was, he was familiar. "Give me the boy," the gray jet hissed, before grabbing the other bot by it's neck. Smokescreen, I need you ASAP.

I'm already here,Bee. Smokescreen sped around the corner, transforming before landing on the jet, punching him on the head. Nightfire watched in amazement while Sam was freaking out of what was going on in front of him. This jet, Starscream threw Smokescreen off before taking off himself. "Any dents?" Smokescreen asked Bee.

"No, I'm good." He turned to look at the human whom were coming out from hiding. "Sorry." He looked at Nightfire. "How do you know about 'Creators'?"

Nightfire didn't say anything as he stepped forward toward the two bots and looked between them. "I remember you two."

"How? We've never been on this planet before," Smokescreen said, looking at the boy.

"But I do remember you,"he said. "I was with you both before I was sent away."

Sam and the two mechs stared at him, he didn't realize his eyes were glowing blue. Smokescreen and Bumblebee gasped. Smokescreen looked way beyond shocked, "By the Allspark..."

"Nightfire."

A/N: TA-DA. I'll make the next chapter longer since Nightfire met Bumblebee and Smokescreen
