I DO NOT OWN TRANSFORMERS

Lumina awoke in the late of night. She was lying on an examination table with monitors lit up around her. They had various things on them such as her vital signs and the information concerning her health. Lumina tried to move, but found it to be extremely difficult because of how banged up she was. She looked around and saw Bumblebee and Sari watching TV.

Bumblebee sat staring at the screen as if he was on some barren planet, "Isn't there anything else on?"

Sari shushed him with a wave of the hand and continued watching the program, which was a sci-fi movie. It was way too cheesy even for Bumblebee, so he got up too get a glass of motor oil when he saw Lumina watching them.

Lumina stood and waited to see if Bumblebee would make a move. They eyed each other and when he didn't move, she transformed into her animal mode. This took Bumblebee by surprise, causing him to stumble over the couch when he backed up. Sari spun around to see what all the commotion was about and saw Lumina.

"Woah!"

Bumblebee got up and grabbed Sari. He rushed into his room and put Sari down. He peeked around the corner and being satisfied, turned to Sari, "Whew! What was that bot's malfunction?"

Sari sat on the edge of Bumblebee's bed and answered, "Maybe it's because she doesn't know the whole situation or how about she mistook you for some else."

Lumina, knowing that she was alone, began to exlore the living room. When she had her fill, she moved on to the empty corridors, following any scent with her wolf nose. Lumina came to Prowl's room and transformed into her robot mode, for easier accessibility. The door opened with a faint whirring noise, and Lumina snuck in.

Prowl had been in deep meditation when he heard the door open. "Who could that be at this hour?"

He waited, but the person didn't move. Prowl was becoming irritated and he stood. He move in to the shadows to apprehend them, but there was no one there.
Lumina had left when Prowl stood and moved on to the next room, which was Ratchet's, who was snoring in his sleep. When Lumina entered, what she saw fascinated her. All the data bits and information on medical supplies and remedies were organized so she was careful when she looked through it.

"I suppose he's a medic bot then," Lumina whispered as she read some entries in his logbook.

She continued to wander the corridors. Lumina stopped and snuck a quick peek into Bulkhead's room, but seeing nothing of interest, moved on. That's when she came to the only room whose lights were still on. The door was ajar slightly and she peered through to see who was inside. She saw a person sitting in a chair looking over some earth books. Lumina was about to go when she saw his face and stopped, "It's him!"

Optimus sat in a chair reading a book .He heard a gasp and looked up, but shrugged it off and returned to reading.

"How is it that organics read these things? The print is too small and the pages are so fragile!"

He moved on to another. Optimus turned the page and closed the book. He put it down and sat in thought for a few minutes. He decided to turn in for the night and walked over to turn the lights off when the gleam of yellow eyes in the doorway stopped him.
Lumina tried to run, but Optimus was already out the door and in her way.

"Wait! I mean you no harm," he said, hands raised so that she could see he had no weapons.

"Who are you? Lumina asked calmly.

"My name is Optimus Prime and I lead this small group of Autobots here on Earth. And you are?"

Lumina was hesitant but introduced herself and explained how she had arrived on earth. When she finished, Optimus nodded in understanding and told her how he had found her in the crater and brought her here so that Ratchet could help her.

"Well then... this whole little escapade we're in right now does seem a little awkward," she said.

"Yeah, I guess so," Optimus agreed, scratching his head.

Early the next morning, Lumina was introduced to the rest of the team and she apologized to Bumblebee for spooking him. All turned out well and Lumina spent her time getting to know them and the world around her while she recovered.

One question remains: What will she do now: stay with the autobots or continue on with her plan for revenge?
