"Hey Bumblebee, can you pick up a friend of ours?" Miko asks running up to me with Jack behind her
"Miko, we can't just bring people here!" Jack groans and I chirp confused. The rest of the team walk up to us and I could tell Ratchet was about to start lecturing her
"Miko, Jack is right." Optimus agrees
"She's cool though! She won't say anything!" Miko whines
"Bumblebee, take Miko to her friend's home." I nod and transform into my alt form allowing Miko to get in. We drive to her friend's house and Miko runs into the house dragging out a…wow…she's beautiful.
"Lydia, this is Bumblebee." Miko says gesturing to me. I chirp a welcome to her
"Did that car just tell me hello?" Lydia gasps. I beep and chirp again "Wow. Uh, hello Bumblebee I'm Lydia." I beep happily in answer
"C'mon Lydia, Bumblebee and I wanna show you something!" Miko orders pushing Lydia towards me
"O-Ok…." Lydia climbs in along with Miko
"Let's go home Bee!" Miko laughs and I chirp driving back to base. Ratchet was the first to see us
"Bumblebee! Optimus told you not to bring that other human here!" he yells
"Whoa, back of the little guy. Let me talk to this Optimus person." Lydia says defending me and Miko stands behind Lydia. I return to my bipedal form and chirp my excuse. Optimus, Bulkhead, Wheeljack, Sonicboom, and Arcee walk into the room
"Bumblebee, you disobeyed an order. Why did you bring this human here?" Optimus asks
"Don't be mad at Bee! It was my idea!" Miko quickly says and grabs my leg
"Optimus, Lydia won't say anything." Jack says
"I'll watch her Optimus. It doesn't seem like she'll do anything." Sonicboom offers and Ratchet shoots 'Boom a look. I give Optimus a pleading look and he sighs
"Alright Sonicboom, keep her safe and make sure the Decepticons don't harm her."
"Sweet!" Miko shouts and I chirp happily. Lydia smiles
"Nice ta meet you Sonicboom." She says
"You too." Sonicboom laughs smiling. I growl lightly, too low for anyone to hear or at least I thought no one could hear.
I glanced back at Bumblebee hearing a low growl but he just chirps curiously at me
"PRIME!" a voice yells
"Yes Agent Fowler?" Optimus asks. Joy. A government agent like Twitchell. Annoying assholes.
"Who is she?!" Agent Fowler demands motioning to me
"My name is Lydia Gummer, eldest daughter of Bertram Gummer and god-daughter of Earl Basset, Val McKee, and Miguel Sanchez. Born and breed Perfectionite." I say and Agent Fowler looks at me shocked
"You're from Perfection?" he asks
"What's so surprising about Perfection?" Miko asks
"Perfection isn't a normal town Miko. We have creatures there that cause a lot of problems, but also protect us." I explain
"What kind of problems?"
"Dangerous problems. The things that live in Perfection are a protected species, but are a danger to mankind." Agent Fowler says
"Hey! A few of them are my babies!"
"Your babies?"
"A grablite, a graboid, a shrieker, and an ass-blaster have taken one of my brothers and me as their parents. After a while we took them as our kids. No big deal."
"You just 'adopted' monsters as your children?"
"Yes, my brother Grady and I adopted monsters as our children." He stares at me like I was crazy
"How can you just 'adopt' man-eating monsters as your children?"
"Pretty easily. They really adopted Grady and I as parents. It's not a big a deal as you're making it."
"They could eat you at any time!"
"No, they protect us. Once an ass-blaster almost got Dad and me, but El Blanco ate the ass-blaster."
"El Blanco?"
"The giant or largest known, albino graboid that Uncle Miguel named before he was killed by the first known ass-blaster."
"You've been through a lot huh?" Raf asks and I smile
"You don't know the half of it." I laugh and he smiles
"Tell us stories like Bulkhead and Wheeljack tell us stories about the wreckers!" Miko says excitedly
"Later on young'uns, plus you could just get some old magazines that cover our very first interaction with the graboids." I say and Optimus looks at me intrigued. Guess I'll be tellin' everyone the stories.
