The Louds and Autobots are back on the Ark, after the Decepticons attack. Ratchet and Red Alert were inspecting Bumblebee for damages. Optimus Prime walks up to the Louds and looks down at them. "I thank you all for not only awaking us, but for finding Bumblebee." Optimus Prime said.

"No sweat." Lynn said.

"I only ask for your names. We would like to get to know you all." Optimus Prime said.

"Well my name is Lincoln Loud and these are my sisters. Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lucy, Lola, Lana, Lisa and Lily." Lincoln introduced.

All of those girls are your sisters?" Arcee asked in surprise.

"Yep." Lincoln answered.

"Man, how often do you humans breed on this planet?" Hot Shot questioned.

"It's uncommon for parental units to breed. But my parents never believed in birth control pills." Lisa said.

"I'm not gonna ask." Prowl said.

"So are you guys from the future or what?" Lori asked.

"We're from another planet called Cybertron." Wheeljack said.

"So, you're all robot aliens?" Lana asked.

"You might say that." Bulkhead replied.

"So were those other guys who attacked. Did they came from Cybertron too?" Lynn asked.

"Yeah they did." Blurr replied.

"They're called Decepticons and they're all about galactic conquest." Sideswipe added.

"That big cyclops robot mentioned some guy named Megatron?" Luna asked.

"Yes, he is the leader of the Decepticons." Optimus Prime replied.

"And he's the reason he started the war on Cybertron." Mirage growled.

"He sounds really mean." Leni said.

"Mean isn't how we would describe him." Ironhide replied.

"More like evil and ruthless." Jetfire added. "He's killed so many of our friends during the war."

"Even when everyone was leaving Cybertron. He attacked transport ships leaving Cybertron." Drift said.

"Sounds like a ruthless dictator." Lisa said.

"Even worse than Adolf Hitler." Lucy added. "And that man is considered to be pure evil."

"We escape from our planet but Megatron followed us across the stars. Causing us to land o this planet." Optimus Prime said.

"How long ago was that?" Lincoln asked.

"I would say about millions of years." Ratchet said while patching up Bumblebee's wounds. "That's what the ship's piloting controls said when we checked them."

"Wow that's a long time." Lana said.

"Even longer than when Royal Woods was even built." Lincoln admitted.

"Yeah, it's our home town." Lola answered.

"I guess things have really transformed while you were all asleep." Luan joked before she laughed. "Get it?"

"That was awful." Red Alert replied.

"She's not that bad Red Alert." Bumblebee said.

"We've endured her terrible puns for many years." Lucy said as she appeared next to Bumblebee's feet, making him and Red Alert yelp in shock.

"How did she?" Red Alert asked.

"She does that a lot robodudes." Luna stated.

"Okay, so we literally know that you all exist." Lori said. "Does this mean we need to leave and forget we ever saw you?"

"In a way yes. Tell anyone we will find you and take you offline." Ironhide said which got the Louds scared looks on their faces. "Nah I'm just kidding."

"Oh, thank goodness." Lola sighed in relief.

"There's no way we'd hurt a bunch of kids. Especially this little bundle of joy." Jazz said while holding Lily in his metal palm.

"Perhaps they can be our guide for this planet?" Ultra Magnus suggested.

"But what if the Decepticons show up and attack them?" Arcee asked.

"We give these kids weapons." Warpath suggested.

"We're too young for having guns." Lincoln reminded.

"Not guns, swords, blades and other weapons." Warpath stated.

"Warpath that's the most stupidest idea I've ever heard." Ironhide said. "We're not gonna these kids weapons!"

"So, what do we do?" Warpath questioned.

"We will protect them." Optimus Prime answered.

"Wait, us? Aren't we supposed to be focusing on winning this war?" Cliffjumper questioned.

"Defeating the Decepticons is our top mission, but these young humans were able to save us from destruction." Optimus said. "The least we can do is offer them our help."

"I'm with Optimus. These kids are lots of fun to be around." Bumblebee agreed.

"Have you heard Luan's jokes?" Jetfire groaned.

"Yeah, and they are a little lame." Bumblebee admitted sheepishly.

"Some people just don't understand comedy perfection." Luan said with a huff.

"So what? We're just gonna watch over these kids all the time?" Arcee asked.

"For the time being. Some of you will be selected to be the Louds' personal guardians." Optimus answered.

"Can I be paired with Lincoln?" Bumblebee asked. "I like him the most."

"If you insist Bumblebee." Optimus Prime nodded.

"Alright!" Lincoln and Bumblebee cheered.

"Arcee, Sideswipe, both of you will look after Lori and Leni." Optimus said.

"This should be fun." Leni said.

"Looks like I'm looking after the girl with a visor over her head." Sideswipe said.

"These are called glasses, not visors." Leni replied.

"This should literally be fun. Besties with a robot." Lori said.

"Bestie? No. I'm you're guardian," Arcee stated.

"Well, I guess we could literally start from scratch." Lori admitted before she took a selfie of herself and Arcee. "Our very first selfie as a duo."

"No selfies! Whatever those are." Arcee said.

"They're photos you take to remember some important moments." Lori said. "They're literally harmless."

"Ok fine. But you can't show anyone about this!" Arcee said.

"I literally cross my heart and hope to die." Lori assured.

"Jazz, you will watch over Luna." Optimus said.

"Stops like a rocking duo." Luna said.

"You're definitely playing my tunes, girl." Jazz replied kindly before they both shared a fist bump.

"Luan, Jetfire will be your guardian." Optimus Prime said.

"Ah scrap." Jetfire grunted.

"Just a heads up. Watch out for her on April Fool's day. Whatever that is?" Bumblebee shrugged.

"Oh, you'll all know." Luan said with a wide grin.

"I don't like the sound of that." Jetfire replied.

"Lynn, your guardian will be Ironhide." Optimus Prime said.

"Oh yeah! I get the Bot with the big cannons!" Lynn remarked. "We're gonna be awesome sports buddies!"

"What kind of sports does your planet have, anyway?" Ironhide asked.

"A lot. I'll explain all of them to you." Lynn said.

"I'll teach you the sports we played on Cybertron." Ironhide said.

"Prowl, you will be the Guardian of Lucy." said Optimus Prime.

"Sigh. I suppose we can find a way to make this work." Lucy said.

"I guess so." Prowl replied. "What are you interests?"

"Writing poems in the graveyard." Lucy replied.

"Interesting." Prowl stated with an uncertain tone in his voice.

"Cliffjumper, I am assigning you to be the guardian of Lola." Optimus Prime said.

"Oh come on Optimus. She's gonna cramp my style." Cliffjumper exclaimed.

"Cramp your style? What do I look like, a homeless weirdo?" Lola asked in offence. "I am a beauty pageant queen and I demand respect!"

"I rather drown in the sea of rust." Cliffjumper grumbled.

"Too bad. You're gonna learn to help me clean my dress and braid my hair, whether you like it or not." Lola replied.

"I have a feeling those two aren't going to get along." Ironhide admitted.

"Too true." Lynn agreed.

"Bulkhead, you'll be looking after Lana." Optimus said.

"Alright!" Lana cheered.

"I'm good with my partner." Bulkhead said.

"Heck yeah, you are! We're gonna do tons of mud wrestling when we get home!" Lana stated.

"Uh, what's that?" Bulkhead asked confusingly.

"I'll explain later." Lana said.

"Wheeljack, I will be assigning you to be Lisa's guardian." Optimus Prime stated.

"Well alright. How hard can this kid be?" Wheeljack said.

"I do dwell in the wonders of scientific properties." Lisa said. "The nature of your Cybertronian species and how advanced your tools are will be quite interesting for me."

"So you're a mini scientist, huh?" Wheeljack asked. "That's pretty nice. You know, I'm something of a scientist myself."

"I look forward to collaborating with you." Lisa said.

"So, who's going to look after Lily?" Lincoln asked, pointing to the baby Loud as she giggled happily.

"She's gonna need someone super strong to take care of her." Lana replied.

"I think I know just the right Autobot for the job." Optimus Prime said. "That Autobot will be Grimlock."

"Grimlock?!" The other Autobots asked in disbelief.

"Why is he getting to be a babysitter?!" Bumblebee questioned.

"Yeah! He's a freaking Dinosaur!" Lori stated.

"Me Grimlock not babysitter or dinosaur! Me king!" Grimlock argued.

"You are a dinosaur. A Tyrannosaurus rex to be exact." Lisa said.

"I'll trade you." Cliffjumper said

"Big dino!" Lily babbled as she waddled up to Grimlock and hugged his foot.

"Aw that's so cute." Lori cooed.

"I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship." Leni said.

"Me Grimlock has weird feeling in Spark chamber." Grimlock said. "What is it?"

"It's called love, dino dude. You're totally gonna like being around Lily." Luna replied.

"Grimlock feels weird about it." Grimlock stated.

"It's better than what I'm feeling right now." Cliffjumper said.

Suddenly, the alarms began to sound off and everyone was shocked by this.

"What's that noise?!" Luan asked in surprise.

"The proximity sensor! Something's just outside the mountain!" Mirage answered.

"Decepticons?!" Lincoln asked.

"You kids need to help and quick!" Blurr exclaimed.

"I'm activating the security footage now!" Ratchet said before pressing a button on the controls.

A holographic screen appeared in front of everyone and they all saw an Afro-haired boy that was very familiar to the Louds.

"Wait that's Clyde!" Lincoln said.

"Another human?" Drift asked,

"He's my best friend." Lincoln replied.

"And he's literally had a huge crush on me for ages, even though I've already got a boyfriend." Lori said.

"That's weird." Warpath said. "So what do we do now Prime?"

"Can we please have Clyde on the team?" Lincoln asked hopefully. "He's a cool guy and he's helped me out on a lot of occasions."

"My brother's words are slightly true. Clyde McBride possesses a few useful traits." Lisa agreed.

"If he's a friend of Lincoln, then we can trust him." Bumblebee said.

"Very well." Optimus Prime replied.

"Optimus, I volunteer myself to be this human's guardian." Drift said.

"Really, Drift? You just wanna go ahead and be partnered with that little guy?" Warpath asked.

"I am certain. I wouldn't trust him with you." Drift stated.

"Very well, Drift." Optimus replied. "Lincoln, I would like you to go with him. Clyde is your best friend and it would be best if you explained everything to him."

"Ok I'll do that." Lincoln said.

Outside the mountain, Clyde was walking around and he was apparently searching for his best friend.

"I know Mr and Mrs Loud said that Lincoln and his sisters went this way." Clyde said. "Where the heck are they?"

But then, Clyde began to hear some engine noises and he turned towards the nearby cave entrance.

"Uh, is someone in there?" Clyde asked nervously.

"Clyde relax. It's just me." Lincoln said as he came out of the cave.

"Lincoln. Were you and your sisters hiding in that cave?" Clyde asked.

"Actually, we got dragged into that cave." Lincoln answered.

"Really? By what?" Clyde asked.

"Well they'll be here soon." Lincoln said.

"Your sisters?" Clyde asked.

"No. These guys are completely different." Lincoln replied. "In fact, there's one right here and he wants to meet you."

"Who?" Clyde asked. Then he hears footsteps coming towards him. Clyde looks at the cave and sees Drift coming out of the cave.

"Greetings Clyde." Drift said.

Clyde had his jaw wide open and was completely speechless by the sight of Drift. "Uh, Clyde? Are you okay?" Lincoln asked before snapping his fingers in front of his best friend's face.

"Giant robot. There's a giant robot on Earth." Clyde said with fear in his voice. "Like the iron giant."

"Don't worry, Clyde. He's absolutely friendly." Lincoln assured.

"Greetings Clyde. My name is Drift. I am your guardian." Drift greeted as he bowed.

"Guardian?" Clyde repeated.

"You see, Drift is an alien robot from a planet called Cybertronian and he and his friends all crashed here on Earth hundreds of years ago." Lincoln explained. "The Autobots are now offering to keep us safe from their enemies, the Decepticons, and we were wondering if you'd like to join us."

"Well ok. I guess. I don't know how Dr. Lopez is gonna react to this?" Clyde said.

"It's best you don't tell her. There's a bunch of people out there who will probably want to capture the Autobots for experimentation." Lincoln replied.

"Good point." Clyde said.

"But wait until you meet my guardian." Lincoln said.

"Is he cool?" Clyde asked.

"Heck yeah, he's cool." Lincoln answered.

"But he is more like a child than a soldier." Drift said.

"We're children too, you know." Clyde replied before they all a walked back into the cave.

On the moon, Knock Out was busy repairing Lugnut, Blitzwing, Shatter and Dropkick as they had just returned to the Nemesis.

"So let me get this straight the Autobots were awaken by the creatures of this planet?" Knock out asked.

"Indeed." Shatter said. "They found Bumblebee and the Ark."

"They call themselves humans." Blitzwing added.

"Meddling organics! I will see to it that they are destroyed for their interference!" Lugnut yelled angrily.

"That goes double for me." Dropkick growled.

"One human insulted Lord Megatron." Lugnut stated. "She will perish!"

"I don't think the Autobots would really let us get close to them." Starscream said while leaning against the wall. "They're always protecting weaker life forms."

"That is their weakness." Shatter stated. "Always looking out for others, beisdes themselves."

"Then we should take it from them." Megatron said.

"Yes! We'll slaughter every last human on that planet and then we'll destroy the Autobots!" Demolisher stated.

"Just make sure you leave Bulkhead. He's mine." Breakdown said.

"If we are to defeat the Autobots, we shall require an army." Shockwave admitted.

"He's got a good point, Lord Megatron." Thundercracker said in agreement.

"I checked the lower decks of our ship. We're still packing a bunch of soldiers in their stasis pods." Sideways informed.

"We'll wake them up so we can begin planning an invasion." Barricade said.

"Excellent." Megatron smirked as he walked towards a blast hole and looks at the planet Earth. "Enjoy your time with your new friends Prime. You will watch them die before I extinguish your spark."
