Hey everyone! Sorry for the wait. And thank you all so much for the reviews. I can see that a lot of you are waiting for the girls to meet the bots and I want you to know that they will very soon. This chapter took me a while to figure out so I hope you all like it. And now without further ado, I give you Chapter 8 of Transformers Animated: Different Angle.

Transformers Animated: Different Angle

Chapter 8: Uh oh!

Disclaimer: I don't own Transformers Animated

I slowly begin to stir, recalling the weird dream I had. I've had many dreams of being in a transformers universe, but this one felt real. I open my eyes, the sunlight shining bright from outside the cave.

… Wait, why am I in a cave? Where am I?

Oh my gosh, it wasn't a dream! It all really happened!

I feel something scratching inside me. Oh right!

I open my door and let Waldorf out, watching him run out the cave. I look over at Kylie as she continues sleeping. Transforming into bot mode, I stretch out my limbs as I try to fully wake up. I step outside the cave, seeing the sun up as its light shimmers on the city.

I let out a vent as I listen to the birds chirp. Today we need to start searching for AllSpark fragments, and I hope we find some before we run into anymore trouble. I look to see Waldorf trotting up beside me, putting his front paws up on my stabilizing servo.

I chuckle. "Hopefully we can find you a home today, Wally," I tell him.

Deciding it's better to start sooner then later, I walk back into the cave to wake up Kylie.

I give her a nudge. "Kylie," I say. When she does nothing, I nudge her again. "Kylie."

She begins to stir as she rubs her optics. "Oh man, I had the weirdest dream last night." she looks up at me.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" She shrieks, making me cringe.

"Good morning to you too," I say, whacking my ear… I mean audio receptor.

She looks down at herself, a sad expression forming on her face. "It wasn't a dream. I really am a robot," she says sadly.

"On the plus side, you don't have to worry about doing your hair and makeup today," I say optimistically.

"But I like doing that," she laments.

I vent. "Well, hopefully we can find a couple of fragments soon and get back home. I thought we should get an early start."

She yawns. "Well, I'm awake now," she says as she slowly starts to sit up. Its not long until she rests her helm in her hand and dozes off again.

I look down at her, shaking my head. "Hey early bird," I say, "You won't be able to find any worms with your eyes closed."

"Just give me a sec," I hear her mumble.

I chuckle as I pick her up from behind. "Come on, on your feet," I say, pulling her up. Finally, she fully wakes up and we walk out the cave, Waldorf trotting along side us.

"So, where should we start?" Kylie asks.

I glance around. "Lets try looking here in the woods. It shouldn't be to hard to find something bright and shiny here," I look down at Waldorf. "Then later we go home hunting for Waldorf here."

Kylie sadly nods at that one.

We start our search, Waldorf trotting right beside us. We look around for a long period of time with no sign of any fragments. I vent. This is going to be a lot harder then I thought. I do know where some might be from the show, but with all these changes happening, I'm afraid taking one of them will only mess up the time line even more.

As we're walking, I look back to see Kylie holding her helm.

"You okay?" I ask her.

"Yeah, just a slight headache," she says.

"Do you feel sick?" I ask her.

"No," she says. "It's almost like… that feeling you get when you don't eat anything for a while."

That's when it dawns on me. "Oh man! I forgot!" I say as I face palm myself.

Kylie gives me a weird look. "What?"

"Oil!" I say. "We need oil to fuel ourselves."

A look of disbelief crosses Kylie's face. "You're joking," she says, looking very worried. "Please tell me you're joking."

"Wish I was," I tell her truthfully, "But seeing how we're now transformers, we cant eat human food anymore. We have to rely on energon and oil. And since there's no energon here, oil is our only option."

A look of disgust spreads across her face. "I think I'd rather starve."

"Kylie, we need it," I say, "We have to hold off searching for AllSpark fragments. Right now we need to find oil."

We start moving again, this time heading towards the city. How could I have not thought of this sooner? We soon arrive at the edge of the city where we transform and take off, Waldorf riding with Kylie. I am cautious though, guessing that the Autobots are probably searching for us. Just like yesterday, there is hardly anyone outside.

"Hey Jacy," Kylie says, "Maybe it will be better if we split up."

I hesitate at this. "I don't know. You're still not familiar with the city. Also what if you run into one of the Autobots?"

"I should be okay. Though remind me again what vehicles I should avoid?"

I mentally shake my helm. "Firetruck, yellow car, police motorcycle, big green SWAT van, and an ambulance. Pretty much anything that has an Autobot or Decepticon logo on it. Jets, helicopters, and tanks you should definitely avoid."

She tries repeating it back. "Firetruck, yellow car, motorcycle, uh… uh… avoid anything flying and tanks?" she guesses.

I vent. "Well, at least you know the important part. Okay, but just because it will help us find oil faster so we can go back to fragment hunting. We'll meet back at the city edge where we came through, okay?"

She nods. "Got it."

We go our separate ways, Kylie continuing straight while I go a different way. I let out a vent.

"She'll be fine," I say as I keep driving. I drive around for quite some time until I come to a construction sight. There I see a few humans working with heavy machinery along with cans of oil on the side. Knowing that the humans are well aware of transformers, I make my way over and approach the nearest construction worker.

"Excuse me," I say from within my truck mode.

The worker turns to face me. I can tell he's confused as he looks around, wondering who is talking to him.

"Who said that?" he asks.

"I did," I say.

He jumps in place. "Whoa!" he exclaims.

"Sorry to startle you, but I was wondering if maybe you can spare a couple cans of oil," I ask.

"Hey, you're one of them alien robots, aren't you?" he asks me, a frown on his face.

"Something like that," I say truthfully.

"And why should we give a couple cans of oil to you? It's because of you bucket of bolts this city keeps falling apart," he says angrily, "Heck, everyone's still recovering from that battle over at Sumdac Tower."

"I'm.. I'm sorry to hear that," I say sympathetically, then ask, "Exactly what did happen at Sumdac Tower?"

He huffs. "D day, that's what happened. Nothing but chaos," he looks up at me angrily. "And that's the last thing this city needs. So why don't you all leave and go back to where you came from!"

I am taken back by his outburst, at the same time understanding why he is upset.

Venting, I drive away. Though feeling down about the situation, I can't help but wonder. What happened at Sumdac Tower?

Third POV (Elsewhere in the city)

Kylie continues driving down the street as she looks around. She lets out a vent.

"Any idea where to look for oil, boy?" she asks Waldorf.

He does nothing as he rests his head on her window dash.

"Yeah, me neither," she says.

She keeps driving around until she sees something at the corner of her optic.

"Hey, what was that?" she asks, going in reverse. Letting Waldorf out, she transforms and walks into an ally, seeing something glowing from underneath the trash bin. Curious, she moves it away. Her optics light up when she sees what it is.

"A fragment!" she says happily as she picks it up, feeling the familiar pulse from the shard. "Sweet! This means we only need to find one more then we can go home!"

She transforms and lets Waldorf back in before driving off, happy about her discovery. It's not until she turns a corner that her excitement disappears. There in front of her is a familiar yellow black striped car and a green SWAT van.

"Hey!" the yellow car says in realization.

Uh oh!

She takes off in a panic, making the other two vehicles jump in surprise.

"Hey, wait a minute!" the yellow car shouts as both chase after her, making her go faster.

"No, no, no, no, no!" she exclaims worryingly as she turns a corner, poor Waldorf trying his best to stay in his seat.

"Hey, stop!" a voice says from the green van.

She doesn't as she accelerates, turning a corner. Just when she thinks she's lost them, the yellow one shows up in front of her, having found a short cut to cut her off.

"Stop!" Bumblebee says as he transforms into bot mode. Kylie slams on the breaks and turns to avoid hitting him, only to skid sideways and knock him off his stabilizing servos.

"Oomph!" he says as he lands on the ground.

"Sorry!" Kylie squeaks as she continues driving.

But Bumblebee quickly gets up and chases after her again. "Hey, will you just stop already! We're not going to hurt you!" he shouts at her.

She doesn't stop as she turns another corner and sees a truck with a bunch of smaller cars on it. Thinking fast, she drives up the ramp of the trailer, and parks herself up there. She watches as Bumblebee and the green van drive from around the corner and pass her without even knowing. Once they are out of sight, she backs up off the trailer, and heads the opposite direction.

"Phew!" she says in relief. "That was close."

She doesn't stop as she continues down the street with poor Waldorf just clinging onto her seat, not at all enjoying the car ride.

"Lets get back to the meeting place where Jacy told us to meet her," Kylie says as she continues. Just then she hears a weird sound getting louder and louder. Its not until she is able to identify it when something swoops right at her. She screams as she spins around and stops, seeing a jet turning around and coming straight at her again. This time it transforms, landing right in front of her. She stares up in fear to see an all too familiar con looking back down at her with a sinister grin.

"Well well," Starscream cackles, "Here I was tracking down an AllSpark fragment signature, and what do I find?" He aims one of his null rays at her. "A pest that needs to be dealt with."

But before he can fire at her, a green wrecking ball slams into him from the side, causing him to fly off and crash into a wall. Kylie looks over and sees a huge round green bot retracting his wrecking ball back. She looks back and sees Starscream quickly recovering as he gets up and sneers at the big green bot. At this point, Bumblebee drives into the scene, backing up his bigger friend.

"Give it up, Screamy," Bumblebee says with his stingers out, "You're out numbered."

Just then something comes crashing down right behind them, making Kylie jump in surprise while the other two stumble and fall. She looks through her rear view mirror and freezes. There standing up to full height is a con she remembers seeing in Jacy's book.

"Oh, I vouldn't say zat, Autobot."

(Jacy's POV)

I continue searching as I drive down another part of the city, only to stop at the sound of a crash. I transform and look over to where the sound came from, seeing smoke and dust filling the air.

"Kylie," I say as I transform and take off, hoping that she really is far away from that area. Only something doesn't feel right. Wait, why do I feel like I'm knocking things over?

….. Dang it!

Sure enough I'm in my jet mode, knocking down street lights, traffic lights, and damaging the side of a building. I transform back into bot mode, looking at the mess I made.

"Oops!" I say. Seriously, I need to figure out this transformation thing.

The loud sound of a honk makes me jump as I turn to see a semi truck coming right at me. I freeze as it swerves out of the way and into a wall. Immediately I rush over to make sure the driver is okay. He gets out and looks right up at me. But before I can ask him if he's alright, he gasps in fear and runs off without looking back.

"Hey, wait!" I say.

"Hold it right there!"

My head snaps up as I look over. My optics go wide when I see a red and blue fire truck and a black and gold police motorcycle transforming into none other then Optimus Prime and Prowl.

Optimus Prime and Prowl!

Immediately I notice the size difference between me and Prowl. He's probably over half my size. I'm guessing I'm probably taller then Prime. I feel my inner fangirl squealing inside of me until I realize something.

They're glaring at me.

"Don't move Decepticon!" I hear Optimus Prime say as he pulls out his ax while Prowl pulls out his gold discs.

Wait, they think that I'm a….

Looking at the destruction around me then at myself, I put two and two together.

Uh oh!

Uh oh indeed! What's going to happen?! Hope you all liked this chapter and hopefully I will update chapter 9 soon. Take care and God bless. Bye!
