"If that is her wish."

It was then that she turned towards Optimus, smile still in place as she spoke the words that cemented her fate with him. "Yes."

Soon after, men from Sector Seven showed up along with the military to help with the clean up, damage and treating those that were injured. As for them along with Lennox and his team, Kagome and Sam, they were taken to a remote location, where he was repaired.

Kagome and Sam were reunited with their families as well as introducing them to the Autobots and the humans that had helped in defeating Megatron and the Decepticons. To say that there had been mixed reactions, would have been an understatement.

Souta had eagerly and enthusiastically greeted all of them, and apologizing for all the disses he said about how he had been a crappy car. The kid had spunk, it was no wonder Kagome often called him a brat, even in terms of endearment.

Her parents were more concerned how this would affect Kagome being involved with them. It didn't help that, despite the clean up and patch job, she still sported scrapes and bruises. The bandages didn't help either. But Kagome fought her point through with her parents until they finally agreed.

Though they had told her that because she missed her final in math, she would end up having to take a supplementary course during the summer. She agreed instantly, then questioned if Sam was in the same situation. The boy's mother absently commented on that Sam was in the same situation. It meant that Kagome would end up spending a few hours during the week busy in school, which would allow him some time to work on a plan. Something that would enable him to be closer to Kagome if all went well.

And as for that surprise Kagome had for Sam after the whole ordeal, was hooking him up with a fellow classmate, one Mikaela Banes. It turned out Sam had had a crush on the girl for some time, so it all turned out well. He also enjoyed the fact that Sam was now occupied with his own female and no longer hanging off of Kagome.

Because Sam had been involved, he would be assigned a new guardian. As for himself and Kagome, he was enjoying the perks of being able to talk properly with her, and openly.

"Don't think for a second, that I forgot those perverted things you did!" she leaned back against the windshield, getting more comfortable as she lay across his hood.

"I didn't initiate all of them."

"What are you talking about?"

"Well~"

As he went on to list all the situations she considered his fault that were in fact her own, he could feel the energies of hers waver in her embarrassment and could only laugh as she curled up on herself.

"I can't believe you-you... Oh god!" she whined as she buried her face into her knees, now sitting atop his hood.

"I'm not complaining. Knowing all this, would you change any of it?"

After a few moments, where she continued to grumble how he was a pervert under her breath, she propped her chin atop her knees. She let out a hum as she leaned back onto her elbows. "A male is a male, no matter the species... and to be honest? No, I wouldn't change a damn thing."

"Neither would I. I'll admit, I was worried when you were the one to 'purchase' me instead of Sam, but the unexpected wrench in our plans worked out well in the end."

"Excuse me~! How was I supposed to know that the seemingly innocent car at the dealership was in fact an alien in disguise and on a mission. And lets not forget a pervert!" her last words were hissed out, but held no anger.

"I'm not blaming you, neither are the others. We discovered something unique through you."

"Yeah, yeah... If you believe that. Me a miko? From what we researched, it sounds like a lot of fairytale stuff to me."

"And I bet a year ago you would have described little green men when asked about aliens."

She took a few moments to reply. "You have me there." she turned her attention towards where the others were, Optimus standing near a cliff's edge sending out a signal to call upon other Autobots that were looking for a place to finally call home. "You think they'll come?"

"Why wouldn't they? Our home is a lost ruin, they have more than likely been searching for a place to finally settle down."

"It would mean in disguise though, and not freely."

"Give it time, with the except of a few, humans are not ready for such a truth."

A comfortable silence fell on them as they basked in the setting sun of a warm summer day. Speaking of which...

"When are you going back to the beach? I'd really love to see you in some new bathing suits!"

"Pervert! I think I liked you better when you couldn't talk!" she slapped a hand down against the hood, her energy once again brushing against his Spark at her embarrassment.

Going with her words, he pulled a song to play. The radio played through a few songs quickly before it played the one he felt best fit the situation, as well as the fact that it hinted to a few things, sounded through his speakers.

Kagome blushed when the lyrics of SEX from Nickelback echoed around her. Whipping her head in the direction of where the others were, she wanted to make sure they were not paying any attention to the two of them. The music itself wasn't very loud, per say, but it could have well been blasting.

When she felt she could go for it, she rolled over and tried her best to glare down at the car beneath her. "Oh…! You are…."

"Desirable? Sexy? Irresistible?"

Her cheeks reached a new peak of blushing. "No! I was going to say unbelievable!" she let out a whimper as her body slouched until her brow was pressed against the warm windshield.

"This was not what I was expecting when I bought my first car…"

"Would you change it if you could?"

Opening her eyes, Kagome could only blink when the setting sun made it almost impossible to see through the windshield. She barely made out the dashboard. Going over his question, the serious tone he had used, she went over everything that had happened since she bought him, thinking he had been an innocent car.

"No… No I wouldn't." she smiled as she closed her eyes, and unexpectedly pressed a kiss to the windshield without any thought passing through her mind.

Rolling over again, she relaxed against the hood humming when Bee revved his engine and caused the metal to warm beneath her.

"You're still a pervert though."

Bee purred out a quick response. "Only for you."

Rolling her eyes, not really believing his words, Kagome shook her head. Aliens disguised as vehicles, an all powerful ancient alien artifact hidden away by the government, a war for their world fought by aliens happening in a downtown city. It was all… unbelievable and…

"...totally unexpected…"
