Of the metal titans from another planet, only humans remain. Most looked to be young, except for one who looked older.
A single woman was the first to awaken. She was short compared to the men. She had long brown hair with blue tips that she had braided into a braid, and her hairstyle was complemented by two pink strands in the front . She had a lean face and a small, narrow nose, to which her large lips perfectly matched. Her figure was athletic and hourglass-shaped. She wore a simple blue t-shirt with a black and blue leather jacket , with black pants and blue and pink sneakers.
She was clutching her head and you could hear how unhappy she was with her current situation. Arcee got to her feet and looked around, she already knew she wouldn't be the only one unhappy with her current situation. She walked closer to the men , who were scattered all over the , until recently , battlefield. She thought about taking them to where she had been hiding recently, as it probably wouldn't be best if she saw decepticons in these bodies right away.
She walked over to the young boy , who looked the lightest of the group. He had black hair with one yellow streak. He wore a yellow t-shirt and a black jacket with black pants and yellow sneakers thrown over them. He also had a narrow face, but still quite young. Narrow nose and lips. Athletic build and slightly taller than Arcee. Bumblebee.
Arcee walked up to him, got under his arm, and started walking. She thought he would be lighter , or at least that's what she wanted. She walked up a small hill and laid him with his back to the ground. She walked down and over to the next boy.
He had brown hair with yellow tips. He was wearing a blue jacket with yellow stripes, a blue t-shirt and plain blue pants and sneakers to go with them. He also had a narrow face, a round nose and narrow lips. As otherwise, he had a slim build and was taller than Bumblebee. Smokescreen.
She took him under her arm as well and began dragging him over the hill, settling him further away from Bumblebee. She swore they looked lighter than they weighed. She walked down the hill again and she didn't want to , she knew that only heavier men would follow these two young men. She slapped herself for carrying them up over the hill and for not choosing a lower spot.
She walked over to the older man and guessed Ratchet by his appearance. He had red hair with a few gray hairs, to her surprise he had no wrinkles. He was wearing an orange t-shirt and a white lab coat over it, which looked more like a lab coat, but she let it go at that. He was wearing white pants and army boots. His face was older than Bumblebee and Smokescreen and he had a beard , too, like he chopped wood every day and didn't have time to shave. Narrow lips and nose. He didn't have an athletic build, but he still looked fit and tall like Smokescreen.
She grabbed him under the armpit and started dragging him over the hill. She was already fumbling a bit as she carried Ratchet, how she was going to go with Bulkhead, for example, she hadn't thought through yet. She carried him up and set him on the ground, having to rest for a moment as her legs and back didn't quite agree with being dragged several meters times her weight. She went back down and looked at the last four men. She didn't even think long as she picked up the one that looked the lightest.
He wasn't the youngest, but then again, he wasn't as old as Ratchet either. He was lying on his back, holding katanas in his hands. He had hair as white as snow, which surprised Arcee a little. He wore a white jacket with red and green stripes, grey sweatpants and black military boots. He had a narrow face with a small nose and lips and had stubble. She picked him up under her arms and started walking up the hill again, putting him as far away from Ratchet as she could.
She went down to get the katanas, and as she looked at the man, she couldn't decide. Finally, she decided she wanted to get Bulkhead behind her. She walked up to him and he was a tall man with a large frame. He had completely short black hair, a green t-shirt with a camouflage jacket and pants, and military boots. He had a round face with a button nose and narrow lips.
Arcee sat him down with little complication and slipped her arm under his shoulder. She set him on his feet and started to walk slowly, but she didn't notice a tall man with black hair who was wearing a dark blue shirt with a purple jacket , purple pants and black sneakers, and behind him a small boy who looked like him.
Arcee was slowly pulling him up the hill when her foot slipped and she and Bulkhead slowly made their way back down the hill. She grabbed Bulkhead with one hand , so he wouldn't fall, and with the other she grabbed the ground.
"Not Bulkhead," Arcee said, begging him to wake up , but she felt someone supporting him from the other side and started to pull him up. With Arcee's help, she carried Bulkhead up, and as they laid him down next to Wheeljack, she looked to see who had helped her.
Arcee looked at the man who helped her and he seemed familiar, and then a small boy with blue eyes ran up to them. She looked at them. "Soundwave and Laserbeak ?" She said and the boy smiled.
"Yeah , that's us and it's cool " said a happy Laserbeak and bounced around them. Arcee looked at Soundwave.
"Thank you for helping me " Arcee said and Soundwave looked at her , but she couldn't see his eyes because he was covering them with his black glasses.
"You're welcome , do you want to help with the others too?" Soundwave asked Arcee. It surprised her a little because he was speaking in front of her and his voice was harsh and resonant. Arcee finally nodded. They went down, picked up Ultra Magnus and pulled him over the hill as well, returning for the last one, Optimus.
When Optimus was on the ground as well, Arcee let out a sigh, and before she could notice, both Soundwave and Laserbeak had returned to the other Decepticons, who continued to sleep for the time being.
Arcee looked over at Ultra Magnus. He was a tall man with a well-developed physique. He had black hair with a single red strand. Underneath that red shirt, he wore a light blue coat, blue and grey sweatpants, and military boots. He had a thin face and his cheekbones stuck out a little , he had a narrow nose and lips.
Her gaze shifted to the last man and the man , whom she secretly loved. Optimus. He was the tallest of the group. He had light brown hair with faintly blue tips , unnoticeable to the naked eye. He was wearing a red coat, with a red and grey shirt underneath, blue trousers and army boots. He had a narrow face with prominent cheekbones with a narrow nose and large lips.
Arcee was sitting on the ground, and as she looked over the hill, she could see Soundwave trying to wake up some of his team members, and slowly succeeding as some of them began to wake up. She turned back to her team and walked over to Bumblebee , who could tolerate the transformation well.
She shook him, but nothing happened. She tried one more time , gave him a weak slap and that's when he woke up. "Ow, what was that for ?" Bumblebee asked, still not realizing he was human and one more important thing. Arcee smiled , as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Bumblebee wrapped his arms around her shoulders, "Hm... Cee, is something wrong?" Bumblebee asked , since he was the one who usually came to her when he needed a simple hug.
"Nothing, Bee , just look at your hands and listen to yourself," Arcee said. Bumblebee didn't understand what she was saying , when it started to dawn on him. He had been hugged by a woman a moment ago, a human woman. He looked at his hands and was human , but when he realized the last , he jumped to his feet and started jumping for joy. His voice came back to him.
Arcee was happy for him, but in the back of her mind, she hoped his scream would wake the others, but it didn't. She walked up to him and stopped the young boy who was extremely happy "help me wake up the others, I'll take Magnus, Ratchet and Optimus" Arcee said and Bumblebee immediately ran towards Smokescreen.
Arcee turned and walked over to Magnus, who was the closest of the three. She shook him, but nothing happened. She didn't like to do it, but she thought there was enough sleep and it would be good if they got to civilization. She tried to wake him again by shaking him, but nothing happened. She slapped him weakly like before Bumblebee, but still nothing. She grunted in frustration as she slapped him again, waking him up.
His tired upper body shot into a sitting position and he clutched his cheek. He looked at Arcee questioningly.
"You slept a long time and look at your hands," Arcee said as she stood up and stood in front of the two men she could choose from. She was interrupted from her thoughts by a scream, two types to be exact. One scared and horrified by Magnus and one happy Smokecreen. Arcee made her decision and let someone else wake Ratchet up "Commander, you could wake Ratchet up," Arcee said leaving no room for protest as she walked over to Optimus.
She knelt down next to him and blushed a little. Arcee focus, she told herself. She put her hands on his shoulders and shook him. All that happened was that he moved a little, put his hand over his eyes and.
"Ratchet, let me sleep a little longer," he murmured. This surprised Arcee, she never thought Optimus was a sleeper, but just like Magnus, sleep was enough. Arcee shook him again and he just threw her hands away.
She wondered what might work to wake up her leader. Something occurred to her and she knew it was a nasty trick, but it was worth a try. She leaned into his ear. "Optimus, Megatron kidnapped the kids and attacked Jasper Nevada," Arcee whispered and that's when he woke up.
Arcee had enough time to get some distance from him as he shot into a sitting position ready to fight but when he looked back he was just in the forest. He looked to his side to see a woman standing next to him who looked a lot like Arcee.
"Arcee? " he asked and got a quick hug in response and it actually surprised him even more. He knew that Bumblebee goes to Arcee when she wants a hug and he also knew that the femme didn't like being grabbed and the last such tender emotion that he she pointed to when they were in the arctic and thought they were going to die and grabbed his hand.
Before he could hug her back, she pulled away and stood up. Optimus sat there surprised for a moment when he heard an angry shout and knew by the voice and decibels that it was their good doctor Ratchet.
He stood up and walked a few feet forward to see Ratchet looking at Bumblebee and Smokescreen. Then there was Wheeljack, pacing from side to side looking for something. Bulkhead stood there neutrally with Magnus. And Arcee was sitting away from the group, watching something over the hill.
Optimus walked further into the circle and looked at Ratchet.
"Ratchet, what's wrong with you yelling?" Optimus asked, the old man's angry gaze now fixed on him.
"You're serious, Prime. You can't see what we are. We're human and we're weak," Ratchet said, waving his arms like a madman. Bumblebee and Smokescreen giggled.
"Damn it, where are my katanas!" Wheeljack spoke and Arcee watched as the Decepticons were in the same mood as them, except Ratchet was busting out here and Megatron down. Arcee climbed down, removed her katana carrier from her back and walked over to Wheeljack.
"You're welcome," she said as she handed them to him and Wheeljack quickly inspected them and placed them on his back.
"So who woke up first and knows what's up with the Decepticons?" Optimus asked and Arcee turned her back on the group but motioned for them to follow her. They went up the hill and saw the Decepticons arguing.
"I think we should let Megatron calm down first before we show them," she said and Optimus nodded in agreement as they returned to where they had woken up.
"So what are we going to do?" asked a bored Smokecreen. When they looked at the sky, the sun had almost set, so it was not safe for them to travel, such a large group in the dark.
"It will be best if we stay here until morning and then go find civilization so we can return to Jasper Nevada" Optimus said and everyone nodded.
Bumblebee and Smokescreen managed to start a fire, thanks to the movies they saw where people started a fire. Later, some found fun with Arcee.
She was exhausted and tried not to fall asleep, but somehow she couldn't, and resting her head on her knees made it even harder to stay awake. And her good teammates joked. Smokecreen and Wheeljack came up to her and kept poking at her trying to get some sort of reaction from her and they did. She kept beating their hands away and they continued on.
Ratchet and Ultra Magnus sat by the fire, enjoying the warm feeling. Bumblebee and Bulkhead talked as if the children were responding that they were human. Optimus went to see how the Decepticons were doing again and saw that they too had calmed down and were sitting there in the dark saying nothing.
Optimus turned back to his team and watched them for a moment as he saw Smokecreen and Wheeljack continue their fun. He walked quietly towards them. Bumblebee and Bulkhead stopped talking and looked at the leader, and Ultra Magnus and Ratchet also looked to see what he was going to do.
Optimus was standing behind them and neither of them noticed him. "BU!" Optimus shouted, touching their shoulders. Wheeljack and Smokecreen jumped to their feet at the sudden sound and touch, screaming like little children. Arcee also looked at the sudden sound and rubbed her eyes from sleep.
Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Ratchet and even Ultra Magnus laughed at the two men who sat down next to him in embarrassment and gave the leader a somewhat nasty look.
Optimus sat down next to Arcee and wrapped one arm around her shoulders. And to everyone's surprise, Arcee didn't get up and leave. She remained seated and rested her head and the leader's hand.
Optimus smiled a little and when he looked at Ratchet, he saw a smirk appear on the medic's lips. In truth, Arcee wasn't the only one in love. Optimus was also in love and the only one who knew it was Doctor Ratchet.
