The Children Chapter 4

The Lost But Found

A large pain awakened Penny that originated from her midsection.

"Sideswipe!" she groaned pushing the small robot off of her

"You can't go around jumping on people like that" Sideswipe had obviously not heard her he had a very excited look on his face and Blaster was also missing.

"Penny!" Sideswipe said happily he then pointed to her shelves

"Look" She glanced over and saw Sunstreaker was glowing very lightly. She got up and walked over to him. She put her hand close testing the temperature to see if he was hot. He was emitting some heat but not enough to burn anything.

"Sideswipe, Where's Blaster?" She asked turning she wanted his advice before touching Sunny.

"He said something about a surprise for you." A surprise she thought what was Blaster doing? She turned to leave her room and suddenly had a mech at her feet.

"Where are you going you have to wake up Sunny!" Sideswipe said pulling on her pajama leg.

"I don't know how to Sides" She said picking him up

"Yes, you do!" He replied trying to squirm out of her grasp

"You woke me up before you left to go to school!" Penny stared at him surprised.

"What do you mean?" She put him on the floor so she wouldn't drop him

"Your arm brushed against me when you put Sunny back up!" Penny's eyes widened she walked over to the shelf and slowly extended her hand. She wasn't very sure if she should touch him or not though the annoying pulling on her PJ's made her reach forward. Her hand grasped around Sunny's waist and just as she was expecting nothing happened.

"See Sides, I'm sorry but I don't have any special power that wakes you guys up I'm sorry" She said looking down at his disappointed face. Suddenly it brightened.

"I know maybe you have to hold him longer!" Penny sighed.

"Okay, fine after my shower I'll carry him around until I get to school but then I have to put him down deal?" Sideswipe nodded though obviously still upset about the first result. Penney grabbed her clothes and entered the bathroom-leaving Sideswipe to go bug Blaster.

Penny was happily in the shower when she was interrupted by a loud crash. She quickly finished her shower and got dressed almost leaving the room but then remembering her promise and grabbing Sunstreaker. She dashed down the stairs to find all her kitchenware covering the floor and two very suspicious looking mechs in the middle. She let out a long sigh and then started picking up the plates closest to her.

"What were you two doing?" She asked lifting them out of the mess and onto the counter.

"Blaster wanted to make you breakfast." Sideswipe said pointing at the stove, which clearly had freshly made pancakes on it. Blaster hit him

"It was supposed to be a surprise!"

Penny smiled at the little robots sitting on her counter then bent down and finished cleaning the floor.

"Thank-you Blaster" Penny said taking the pancakes to the table then giving him a hug.

"Why are ya carrying a glow-in-the-dark toy around?" Blaster said glancing at the still present Sunstreaker in her hand. Before she could respond Sideswipe butted in.

"That's no toy it's my bro!" Blaster just looked confused glancing at Penny for an explanation.

"Sideswipe thinks somehow I can make this toy come to life" Blaster nodded with understanding.

"You probably could," He said with a smile on his face

"You did it for me and Sides" Penny just stared at them she didn't do anything for them but, if they insisted on believing that she wouldn't say anything. She ate the pancakes that surprisingly well made and grabbed her school bag.

"Come on you two, I can't leave you here" She said opening her bag.

"We have to climb in there!" Sideswipe said looking at the small bag with disgust.

"No" Blaster said with a smirk "You do you're the one who turns into a small car" Penny just sighed would these two ever get along? Then she realized she had left Sunny on the table.

"Wait here." She told them "And Sides please just get in the bag"

Penny grabbed Sunny and ran up to her room she was about to place him on the shelf when the light that had been originally emanating from him grew brighter so bright Penny couldn't see. When she opened her eyes there clinging onto her arm was Sunstreaker.

Penny walked down the stairs with the small yellow robot at her heels. When Sideswipe saw him he ran and pounced on his brother knocking them both down the stairs. Penny walked over to the closet and got a bigger backpack transferring her stuff into it. Then shoving the two metal monsters in

"You guys have to stay quiet" She said in a stern voice having both of the pranksters were going to be a real problem. She then picked up Blaster who turned into a tape deck in her arms and headed out the door to school.

Finally, Penny thought exiting her last class and heading to her locker she had to leave her new house mates in there. But, when she rounded the corner a huge crowd was gathered around it.

"What going on?" She asked the nearest person in the crowd.

"There is some people stuck in a locker they're going to cut it open and get them out!" The blond girl responded.

Penny's eyes grew wide and she began pushing through the crowd. As she expected when she got to the front the janitor was in front of her locker and arguing could be heard coming from within it.

"Um, sir that's my locker" She said talking to the janitor "Those are my friends walkie-talkies no one is in there" When she got her hands on those three they were going to wish they were still stuck in her locker. The janitor looked up at her.

"Are you sure about that miss?" He asked her with an unhappy look on his face.

"Yes" She said moving in front of him and inputting the combination. She heard small transforming sounds coming from within and when she opened her locker the only things that could be seen were two small Lamborghini's and a tape player. She let out a long sigh of relief and stepped back to let everyone see. The janitor nodded and went on his way then the crowd slowly cleared.

"You guys are so dead" she said stuffing the cars in her bag.

"Hey, it wasn't my fault" Sunstreaker said annoyed about being crammed into another small space.

"I don't care whose fault it was I just want to know why you guys were arguing!" She responded hoisting the bag up onto her back grabbing Blaster and leaving.

When she got far enough and the complaining coming from her back got too much to bare. She unzipped her backpack and allowed the two to drive around her. If anyone saw she would just say they were remote control.

"I bet I can beat you back!" Sideswipe yelled to his brother.

"Doubt it!" Sunstreaker yelled back

Penny shook her head they were acting like kids.

"Blaster can you make sure that the twins get home I want to stop by the toy store and see if there are any Ironhide's left" Blaster transformed and Penny gave him the spare set of keys he then ran of after the two speedsters.

Penny turned to the store and entered it she was a bit nervous because of the last incident that had happened with Blaster. She looked over at the cash to see that Paul was no longer there. In his place stood a woman with long curly blond hair.

"Excuse me, but do you know what happened to the guy who used to work here, Paul?" The women looked up at her surprised that a girl of her age would come in a toy store.

"He quit, apparently went crazy or something the last thing he said to his boss was about tiny ro bots coming to life" Penny felt a bit guilty about this if she hadn't gone to get Blaster fixed Paul probably would still be here. She walked to the back where the transformers are usually kept and searched the shelves.

"Nope, gone" she said to herself glumly she walked to the front of the store again and was about to leave when the lady spoke to her.

"You were looking for that new transformer thing right?" Penny turned and nodded.

"I have one over here that we forgot to put on the shelf if you want it" The women bent down and pulled one out Penny reached forward and took it looking at it something made her shake her head and refuse it something just wasn't right unlike the others this one just didn't sit right.

"Sorry, I don't want him anymore but thank-you anyway" She said giving the women an awkward smile. The women just nodded and put the toy where she has found it.

Penny walked out of the store and started her walk home. That was stupid she thought the next shipment that comes in would probably be sold out the minute it hit the shelves. As she walked she saw something shine on the side of the road and if by miracle there sat an Ironhide he looked to be in perfect condition his gun was even tied around his hand using elastic. She picked him up and looked him over the same feeling she had when she picked up the others ran though her. This was the one she thought but then placed him back down she wasn't going to take it she was not a thief. She placed him back down and walked away. As she walked the urge to go back and pick him back up grew stronger but she refused to turn and take him eventually she reached her street. She walked down it and began to have a weird feeling that she was being watched. She looked around was she just being paranoid or was someone there.

Suddenly a small red robot jumped out in front of her and pointed his gun at her! She looked at him gun pointed but, he didn't fire instead he started shaking his hand up and down.

"How do you get this darn thing off!" he said as the gun snapped back up and into his hand.

Penny laughed at this tiny version of Ironhide. She walked over and broke the elastic and untangled it out of his finger joints. She thought about the whole situation and it reminded her of the toy that was sitting on the side of the road. She shook her head at the thought he couldn't be the same toy could he?

"Thanks miss, I appreciate it but now I got ta go" He went to go leave but she grabbed his arm.

"What you don't want to see your comrades" She asked him with a mischievous smile on her face. He just looked up at her surprised at the statement she had just made.

Penny walked up to the house and inserted her keys onto the lock and opened the door. She sighed when she was greeted by Blaster yelling at the twin's for hanging on the chandelier. She ran in and yanked the two off of their perch and placed them on the floor.

"Hey, Ironhide!" Blaster said letting Penny pick him up and place him on the floor.

"Your all actin like sparklins!" He responded his mouth gapping open. He almost turned around and left but Penny picked him up.

"Put me down!" He said kicking at her. She had to struggle to keep a strong hold on him.

"What's wrong!" She said placing him on the counter. She looked him over worried that she had hurt him in some way. He just looked down at his leg it seemed to have some type of imprint in it but, when she went to look at it he covered it with his hand glaring at her.

"I'm going to have to leave soon" She told them looking at her watch it was getting close to the time she would have to leave to go to work. Sunstreaker pushed Sideswipe forward as if encouraging him to say something.

"Penny don't you have a day off at some point?" He asked after several prods in his back.

"Yes, my day off is tomorrow no school no work" Penny answered smiling at the two small mechs.

"Blaster can you explain everything to the others?" They probably didn't know they were going to get put in a small bag and then forced to wait under the chief's island. Blaster gave a nod and started talking about what they were going to have to do.

Penny walked up the stairs and got her stuff. She found the biggest bag she could now that a three robot's were going to have to fit in there she was going to need a lot of room.
