Jinx's P.O.V
The drive to Sam's house was uneventful. The team was going to be waiting for Sam as he searched for the glasses, but I didn't really want to do that. I wanted to drive around a bit. So I ended up sending Silverstriker so that he could keep me updated. Silver didn't mind waiting so there was no argument on that. Though because Silver's alt mode is a Can-am spyder with no roof or siding, he had to activate his holoform; which I had completed for my symbiotes while the rest of the team had to wait for Ratchet or Wheejack to finish them. They most likely had to wait for Ratchet though, since we don't know if Wheeljack will be coming to Earth. I say that because I have a feeling that we won't be leaving this planet for quite a while, even after we find the Allspark.
Silverstiker actually has two holoforms. Silverstriker's first holoform is a young male that looks to be in his early to mid twenties, probably around twenty one. The holoforms hair is dark amber almost brown with a scruffy look to it. The holoform has a tanned skin tone to it, not a dark tan but also not pale. His optics...er?... eyes are a really dark blue in color that almost looks onyx black, but more of a midnight blue color. Depending on Silverstriker's preference, the holoform's clothing can change, but as of now, he has black runner/hiker boots, dark denim blue jeans with two silver chains hanging from the left pocket, a silver/grey t-shirt under a black leather jacket, and lastly a black helmet with a tinted visor. (A/N sort of looks like Kiba from Naruto shippuden) Silver's second holoform is a husky that looks like a wolf more than a husky.
After separating myself from the group I released Scarlet. She wanted to stretch her wings, so I allowed her to do so, as long as she stayed in a five mile radius of the team's location. So she ended up patrolling through the sky using her cloaking to go completely invisible as to not be spotted and attract any unwanted attention.
As I was driving around on the the darkened streets, I got a ping on my comm from a very unexpected source at an even more unexpected location. If it was a Decepticon trap I didn't know, but I really had to check it out just incase because if the Decepticons found out about this thing, we were in big trouble. Besides, even if I wanted to turn back (Which I didn't) I couldn't now, as my instincts had taken over, already enroute to the signal as fast as I could. At least I was in control enough to keep to the speed limit as I drove through the darkened back roads.
Silverstriker's P.O.V
We had arrived at the human Sam's house just shortly after carrier had separated from the group. Apparently she picked up a signal and was going to investigate. Meanwhile Sam was trying to tell Mikaela to 'watch' us and keep us here. 'Like she could if she even tried' I thought to myself.
Sam had run into the backyard not even one hundred twenty seconds ago, (two minutes) and Optimus was already transforming, getting impatient and antsy already. I swear, he has as much patients as a sparkling. I'm way younger than him and I have more patients than him.
All the other bots followed Optimus' lead by transforming and are currently in the process of stepping over the large fence. Even Jazz! Mentally shaking my helm, I asked carrier what to do over the bond. I got a response from carrier saying I could transform, but to stay out of sight. She then ended the conversation by abruptly cutting the bond link. If I was in my quad peded form, anybot would have clearly seen the bewildered look on my mussel I'm sure I would have been making.
Mentally shaking my helm, yet again. I transformed into my quad peded cyberwolf form. Stretching as I finished my transformation. My back plates bristling, only to flatten them once again. Standing at my full height, mentally thanking Primus for my shorter height because humans wouldn't easily be able to see me over the various tall fences and hedges in the neighbourhood.
Wandering over to the fence on my left that the rest of the bots had disappeared over, I rested my mussel on the top of said fence to watch the going's on's of the backyard, just in time too, to watch as a rodent sized animal zipped out of the house's back door, making a beeline for Ironhide's pedes. 'Oh this won't end well.' I thought to myself. Sam was yelling at the rodent known as 'Mojo' as he, I suppose it's a he, lubricated on Ironhide's pede.
"Mojo, Mojo, off to the robot, off the….oh god!" Sam practically screeched.
"Ah wet." Ironhide grumbled, making a move to shake off the rodent's lubricants that were dripping off his pede, and in the same move going to squish the rodent under his pede, but Sam got in the way, picking up the rodent before Ironhide could squish it under said pede.
Sam started shouting his helm… uh… head off. "No no no no no, easy easy, hold on! Hold on! This is Mojo, this is Mojo, he's a pet of mine. He's a pet okay? Th...that's all.." Sam started to stammer over his words as Ironhide activated his cannons, twirling them like he does, before pointing them at Sam and the rodent.
"...If you could ju...just put the guns away.." Sam stammered. The hinges in my jaw joint went slack as I just stared blankly at the boy with utter shock and anger. 'Guns? Guns?! Those are cannons you slagging scrap for processor! They could obliterated this whole city! Pit! Even an eighth of this planet! No meer gun can do that!' I thought to myself, silently fuming. I let out a low feral growl as I thought of the insulting world he called 'Hide's cannons. (A/N as you can see, Silver happens to really like cannons. No wonder why he and 'Hide get along so well)
"...Put the...put them away please." Sam stammered as he tried to get the rodent away from Ironhide.
"You have a rodent infestation." Ironhide stated in his gruff rumbling voice.
"A...a what?" Sam stammered his question, honestly confused. His panic rising.
"Shall I terminate?" Ironhide asked with a slight gleam of joy in his optics. 'He just wants an excuse to use his cannons.' I thought to myself with a slight smile on my mussel. 'Though I can't blame him. I want to blow something up too.' My slight smile got a bit bigger as I thought about the sound the explosion would make, and the red hot flames of the fiery inferno of the destructive explosion engulfing an object.
I would have liked to completely have tuned out the rest by now, but Sam shrieks worst than Lupa when somebot scratches her paint; especially when the twins have spent joors upon joors painting and waxing her plating.
Though Lupa's shrieks aren't nearly as bad as Sunstreaker's shrieks, when he get his paint scratched, other paint splatters , energon blaster burns, insecticon oral fluids, and so on, on his plating. Nevertheless, Lupa's shrieks are still quite annoying.
"No. No. No, no. He's not a rodent…" 'Could have fooled me.' Sam continues to try and get Ironhide to put his cannons away.
"He's a chihuahua. We love chihuahuas! Don't we?" Sam asked looking over to Mikaela for assistance. She nodded in agreement, looking intimidated at the sight of Ironhide's cannons.
"He's leaked lubricants all over my foot!" Ironhide boomed, nearly snarling at the end of his words.
"He…..he peed on you?" Sam stuttered out his question. "Bad Mojo. Bad Mojo!" Sam scolded the rodent.
"Bad Mojo!" Ironhide copied scolding the rodent...or Mojo as Sam keeps addressing it as. Even though Ironhide had now put away his cannons, he was still pretty peeved, and of course...Sam still tried to somewhat calm him down.
"I'm sorry. He's got a male dominance thing...that's all it is."
'Are ya sure there kid? Ya don't seem to sure yourself.'
"Ugg…. my foot's gonna rust." Ironhide muttered out a grumble to himself as he walked away shaking his pede trying to get whatever lubricants remained on his pede, off.
'I wonder how carrier's doing.' I thought to myself.
Jinx's P.O.V
I was nearing the location in which the ping I had received on my commlink had originated. Which seemed to be a small power generator plant. I was just entering the supposes front gates to the lot; which looked to be forcefully pushed open by a car, or slammed into at high speeds by a car was more like it. When Silver asked a question over our bond about transforming at the boy's….er...Sam's residents. 'Odd thing to ask.' I thought to myself.
I went to answer Silver's question when I rounded a corner and spotted the source of the ping. Shock and horror filled my spark. I quickly replied to Silver before abruptly cutting the bond commlink.
I rushed over to the slightly smoking frame. Ejecting Duma as I was in mid transformation. Towering over the mech, I rolled him over with both of my front pedes onto his backplates from the position he had been in curled into a ball, trying his best to ignore the pain he was currently in.
After gaining his bearings from his sudden ejection during my mid transformation, Duma galloped over and immediately began repairs. The mech onlined his crimson red optics and stared into my worried violet ones.
"Hey Jinx." He smiled sheepishly at me. I just scowled at him, but my worry was clearly shining in the depths of my violet optics.
~"Don't you 'hey Jinx' me mister"~ I growled. ~"What the fraggin' pit happened to you Barri'? "~ I asked him with a panicked whine to my vocal processor as I spoke. Now it was his turn to scowl at me, not liking his old…... nickname?...I believe humans call it.
"Don't call me that." He growled. "I ain't a sparkling anymore." He continued to growl at me with that scowl of his, one that looked pissed but with nothing behind it. Well... maybe a little bit irritated.
~"Fine… 'Cade… Answer my question."~ I snapped. I was becoming impatient. Which apparently happend to be rather obvious in my optics and tone, unlike his own growling. He exvented air through his intakes in what sounded like a human sigh of embarrassment. This peeked my interest, which slightly cooled my temper. He looked reluctant to tell me by the way he wouldn't lock his optics with mine as they kept looking anywheres but at me. Ohh but he knew so very well that he had no choice to tell me what happened.
Sighing out a long low exvent that got him a smack to the faceplates from Duma, as he was trying to patch up his midsection that was close to some of 'Cade's extra vents. Finally locking his optics with mine, with just a bit of twitching glances in other directions, which I didn't mind, he finally started to speak.
"I kinda got into a brawl with the bug over 'LadiesMan217'. I was obviously going easy on him, despite my initial tackle, letting him win, but he seemed to care for the boy more than I initially thought, and went all out on me." 'Cade finally answered my question.
I just fell back onto my aft nearly crushing my tail and just stared at him with a slack jaw, shocked. I knew Bee could take care of himself, but I didn't know he could be this brutal about it. Though I do suppose he was raised by Ironhide, but still. The wounds 'Cade has aren't that bad at all, especially compared to some other nasty wounds I've seen during the war. But this, is one of the worst banged up conditions I've seen 'Cade in.
Duma finished up with 'Cade's repairs and decided to add in his own thoughts to our conversation that he'd been listening in on as he repaired 'Cade. "Okay.." Duma jumped up onto 'Cade's lap as 'Cade sat up, causing myself to lie down onto my belly as to be more optic level with both 'Cade and Duma. "..You're repairs are done. The welding is still fresh and will be weak until they cool completely. So try to keep to as little movement as possible. Yes, that means no fights and being careful when you transform." Duma said. Giving 'Cade a pointed look, making 'Cade nod in agreement.
"Oh, and…" Duma continued. "You were going after Sam why?" 'Cade looked confused. "Who is this Sam?" he asked.
~"LadiesMan217's real designation or name as the humans call them, is Sam Witwicky."~ I clarified to help sort out some of the confusion. 'Cade looked at me oddly, as if I had just grown a second helm. But….since that wouldn't be the weirdest thing to happen to me, I suppose the look he was giving me was more like as if I had just turned into Megatwat. Anyways carrying on….
"Sam Witwicky?" 'Cade asked. I nodded. 'Cade looked down to his lap where Duma was still seated. The look 'Cade gave him said 'really?' Duma just nodded. "These humans have really strange names." 'Cade stated.
"As for why I had gone after …'SAM'... is because Screamer somehow found out Frenzy and I had found information on a way to find the location of the allspark as well as information on Megatron that related to Sam's ancestor. So Screamer had 'ordered' the both of us to retrieve the glasses from Sam. Actually. Both Frenzy and I had located Sam weeks ago, maybe even months, we really didn't keep track, but we waited for an autobot to show up and find him before we made a move so that we would have an excuse as to why we failed to retrieve the glasses or any information." 'Cade answered Duma's question.
"I suppose that makes sense. Knowing what I've heard from otherbots and what you lot have told me about Screamer, he would have tried to rip you apart if you had defied himmm….. Carrier?... What's wrong?" Duma asked as he looked over at me, also causing 'Cade to look at my shaking frame also with a questioning/worried look.
I couldn't hold it any longer or I'd go temporarily offline due to not inventing cool air to cool my now over heating systems. I sent what I was feeling over to Duma, dropping the barrier I had put up so that he didn't feel them over the bond earlier. The poor mechling could barely handle it. The amusement I had been holding back crashing over him like tsunami, nearly causing him to fall over. They both still looked as confused as ever, 'Cade more so. So I sent them both the videos Silver sent me.
They both opened the first file(the one that had me so amused so much originally) to see what was going on. :. "Autobots recon" Optimus ordered. The teams giant forms moving around a small backyard making everything look so small. Then the video cut to Sam poking his head out a window on the second level of the house. " , ,no,no." Sam stressed pulling at his hair. As the footage moved downward we could all see what Sam was stressing about. The team was transformed down into their alt modes parked in the backyard. "This isn't hiding. This isn't hiding! This is my backyard not a truck stop! Oh. god. Oh!" .:
When the video ended 'Cade decided to share his thoughts with us on the short video. Which, sadly, all three of us were thinking the same thing. "I knew the autobots were idiots, but even I, heck, even Megatron would think they were smarter than that." He stated, trying to hold back a chuckle that was threatening to slip out his vocal processor. "How did they survive in the war this long?" He asked in all seriousness. I slightly glared at him half sparkedly with a smile, because well, seriously, we are intelligent advanced beings, one would think they'd know better.
~"Now now 'Cade. They aren't stupid, just…not accustomed to Earth's culture or the species on this planet."~ Though internally I was somewhat, ok, extremely relieved to have seen Jazz at least in the driveway. I got another ping, another video from Silver. I opened it and nearly fell over with laughter.
~"Wait! Wait! Silver sent another video!"~ I exclaimed to them before sending to the both of them again so we could watch together.
:."Autobots fallback" Optimus commanded. "Thank you. Please for five minutes." Sam says before ducking his head back into the upstairs window. All the while Ironhide and Ratchet are trying to get around each other. "Move!" Ratchet shouts. "Get away!" Ironhide growls. Ratchet and Ironhide start to bicker with each other as Ratchet walks away from Ironhide, not watching where he's going. "What's the matter with you? Can't you be quiet. He wants us to be quiet." Optimus scolds the two older bots in a hushed tone. Just as Optimus says this however, Ratchet walks straight into some power lines, getting electrocuted, static practically jumping to his plating. The sirens of his alt mode go off as he twists and stumbles before falling flat on his backplates in the neighboring house's green house. All power in the neighborhood going out. In the background we could just barely hear a male voice. "Earthquake! Earthquake! Judy get under the table! Get under the table quick!""Wow! That was tingly! You should try that!" Ratchet exclaims as he tries gets up from the ground, groaning as he gets back on his pedes a bit wobbly, pieces of greenhouse falling from his plating. "Yeah, that looks fun." Ironhide grumbled sarcastically, waving off the over charged medic with a flick of his wrist, walking away.:
After Ratchet's ...uh...episode? Maybe? Anyways….. We all just stare at each other for a moment before we all start breaking down into fits of laughter. 'Cade went to lean on a pile of gravel only for it to shift under his weight, causing him to fall backwards. This only caused us to laugh harder, if it was even possible at this point. It took us about five minutes to compose ourselves, that's when Scarlet reached out to me over the bond.
-'What's wrong Scarlet?'- I ask over the bond.
-'I've spotted a convoy of black SUV's headed in the direction of Samual's residents and the team hasn't left yet. I think the SUV's may be the government.'- Scarlet replies. Panic beginning to set in on her side of the bond. She sent her panic over the bond as well as a stream of current time live video Scarlet was seeing.
-'It's alright Scarlet. What's their ETA to the team's location?'- I ask. Sending comfort over the bond.
-'They're about two point five miles from the team's location, traveling at about thirty miles per hour, ETA five minutes.'- (A/N For those who go by Km better, four kilometers away, forty eight km/h)
-'Notify Jazz, he'll get them out of there. Send me a location to rondevu with you guys, I'll be there as soon as possible, just gotta take care of 'Cade here.'- I told her.
-'oohhh! You're with 'Cade? How's he been?.'- she asked.
-'He's doing fine. Now focus!.'-
-'Right, right. I'll send you the rondevu coordinates as soon as I get them.'- And with that said she cut off the convocation. I turned to face 'Cade.
~"Sorry 'Cade. Something came up, we gotta go."~ I apologized, wishing that I could stay longer. I always do worry about them when I'm not in contact with them, even though I know they can take care of themselves. It's just instinct.
"It's okay Jinx. Besides, your team will become suspicious if you're gone for too long." 'Cade says solemnly. I know he wants this meeting to last longer as much as I do. We haven't had as much contact as we would have liked, mostly for updates on how the others are doing and just the joy of seeing family, especially since the Decepticons aren't a really family type of faction. Receiving the rendezvous coordinates from Scarlet, and with Duma doing a once over 'Cade again to make sure his repairs are in order, before saying goodbye to 'Cade, he connects to my frame. 'Cade looks at me before speaking.
"Duma has grown up quite a bit since the last time I've seem him. Ratchet is sure teaching him a lot as well, even berth side manner." 'Cade grumbles out the last part. I chuckle at his comment.
~"He sure has grown. All of them have."~ I sigh, looking 'Cade straight in the optics. ~"Promise me you'll stay safe, you and the other two as well. I worry about you mechs."~ I say.
"Who do you think you're talking to? You know me." 'Cade says with a smirk.
~"Yeah I do know you, and your recklessness sometimes."~ I say smirking right back at him.
"Whatever." 'Cade mutters.
~"Promise."~ I look at him strictly. An incoherent mumble left his vocal processor. ~" 'Cade! Promise?!"~ I yell at him. He flinches slightly.
"Fine! Primus! I promise!"
~"Good."~ I smile at him. ~"Oh, and before I forget. Do ya got any information for meh? Cuz ah got some fer ya."~ I say.
"Yeah I do, and great, just give me a moment." 'Cade says as his optics dim. My optics dim as well a few klicks later and we have exchanged datapackets.
~"Thanks."~
"No problem, well, unless Screamer finds out." 'Cade grimaced.
~"Well if he does, I'll rip him apart before he can even lay a servo on you or the others'll rip him apart."~ An evil looking grin (As much of one I can manage) crosses my face plates as I say this. 'Cade take a few steps back with wide optics.
"You're more insane than when you were younger." I just smile sweetly at him.
~"Aww that's so sweet of ya to say. Still, ya know ya love meh."~ I say walking up next to him and swinging my right front leg over his shoulder in as much of a hug I can manage. 'Cade grumbles once again, but returns the hug nonetheless. Having had enough of the hug, 'Cade squirms his way out of my light grasp. Then he turns to me.
"And what of the plan?" 'Cade asks.
~"What do you mean?"~
"It's still the same as before right? And no one knows about it right?" 'Cade asks, a little bit of skepticism in his voice and optics.
~"First of all who do you take me for? I am on the Autobots special ops team. Secondly, yes, it's still the same as before, unless something goes way out of whack. And thirdly, no one that isn't supposed to know doesn't know."~
"Alright I'll tell the other and we'll go over the info you gave me." With that, we bid each other our goodbye, both transforming ('Cade rather slowly per Duma's orders) splitting up at the front gate entrance, going our separate ways. Hoping to see 'Cade and the other two again soon. I signaled right, taking a ramp onto the expressway to meet up with my team.
