Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN TRANSFORMERS OR WINX CLUB. THOSE HONORS GO TO HASBRO AND RAINBOW. PLEASE DO NOT SUE ME!

Somewhere in town, a smaller version of the muscle car raced around while being controlled by a kid with square glasses, brown spikey hair, and an orange sweater vest over a faded yellow long-sleeve shirt with Blue jeans and sneakers. His phone rang and he didn't skip a beat answering it, and controlling the car at the same time. "Hi momma…I'm racing…right up the street…kay, five more minutes?" asked the kid and he hung up, while continuing racing.

On the interstate, and in a gorge somewhere

Jack rode Arcee while he checked behind them for cons. He looked up the road, spotted a road closed sign, and braced for impact. Arcee missed the sign, drove off the edge of the interstate, and into the area the kid was in. the boy looked up, saw a blue motorcycle jump down where he was, and when it landed, he dropped his controller. "Whoa!" said the kid. Jack looked up, and smiled. "You have no idea" said Jack and got off of Arcee. The cars that were following them drove down the grassy ramp, jumped off, and transformed into twin robots with triangles as faces. They had charged their plasma guns, and turned towards the motorcycle. Arcee transformed into her bot form from behind the boys. "This ends here cons" said Arcee and ran towards one of the cons, while the two boys ran off to the side to get out of the way. She dodged their lasers, and jumped while kicking one in the face while bringing it to the ground. She kicked the other in the chest, and it too fell to the ground. Jack and the shorter kid watched on in shock, and Raf, the shorter one, looked at Jack. "What are they?" asked Raf. "Talking cars that turn into robots, or the other way around" said Jack as they watched on. Arcee landed a few blows to the con's chassis, Faceplates, and other various parts of his armor. While she punched the con in the face, she said "this….is….for…..cliff" and when she stopped, she saw the con roll its head back her way. She backed away, and when the con fired at her, she did back flips until the con got her in the chest. She landed on the ground while skidding a few feet on her back. The boys heard an engine, and a black and yellow Chevrolet Camaro jumped off the road, and transformed into a medium sized bot with doors for wings. He landed on a con, and punched the other in the side of the face while sparks flew. Arcee gets up momentarily while holding her head, and walks to the bot that had his foot on one of the cons' chest. He stepped off of the con and heard a 'crunch' sound. He lifted his foot up, and saw a crushed toy version of himself. –Sorry- said the bot in beeps and clicks while the kid smiled. "It's okay, really." Said the kid and the bot was shot back by the con. He flew backwards, and turned over to land on his chest. He tried to get up but the con held him down with his foot. They both held guns to him, and when they let him turn over, and the kid named Raphael, butt in. "leave him alone!" said Raf, and all three of them looked at him. One of the cons pointed his gun at him, and he got real quiet. "Please?" asked Raf and the cone started walking towards him while the other one kept his gun on the bot called Bumble-bee. Jack kneeled down to his level, and put a hand on his shoulder. "Bad call" said Jack and they ran off. The con followed slowly, and they ran off around the corner. They came up to a pipe in the wall, and climbed in. the con reached in, and jack yelled "come on, keep moving!" said jack, and they ran away from the approaching black claw and just as it was about to reach them, Bumble-bee pulled the con away. He beat him while the kids looked at each other, and he looked in the pipe. –You guys okay? - He asked and Raf nodded. "Yeah, thanks" said Raf and Bee dissapered. Jack pulled Raf along the pipe, and Raf looked up. "what did we just see?" asked Raf, "I don't know, but I don't wanna find out" said Jack and they ran down the pipe.

Bumble bee punched the con in the face, while a con elbowed him in the back of the head, and kicked his back. Bumble-bee skidded forward, and headed to the still dizzy Arcee. She helped him up, supported him and then stood ready to fight. The cons stood with their triangle guns, and all of a sudden they heard a loud horn come from behind the bots. They watched as a green heavy-duty truck came driving up, jumped, and transformed into a large green bot with black shoulder plates. "who's ready to rumble?" asked the bot called Bulk-head. The cons transformed and drove away in fear. The bots relaxed and Arcee looked over at him while putting a hand on her hip, and while bumble-bee stood there catching his breath. "so, what kept you?" asked Arcee and Bulk-head shrugged his shoulder plates. "traffic" said Bulk, and Bumble bee looked at him.

Autobot base

Bloom walks around the platforms of the base, heels clicking against the metal, and with every step, she could tell Ratchet was beyond irritated. "For Primus sake, will you take those things off" said Ratchet and Bloom took the heels off while she listened to the story that Arcee was telling. "And the cons would have been scrap if I wasn't distracted by the humans." Arcee said with her arms over her chest. Bloom's ears perked up and she turned around in her desk chair. "Humans?" asked Optimus lifting an optic ridge. Bumble bee clicked and Optimus looked at the screen again. "Two boys" said Optimus obviously concerned. "I guess the second one caught us in action….I don't know, was a little busy at the time trying not to get my face blown off." Said Arcee and Bloom giggled. "If the decepticons are targeting us, then anyone perceived as our allies, may be at great risk." Optimus said and Bloom noticed a tarp in the corner. She walked quietly to the tarp, and inspected it. "Hey ratchet, what's this?" asked Bloom holding onto the tarp material. Ratchet looked over and his optics widened. "Yip, yip, yip! Don't touch that, it's a surprise" said Ratchet, and Bloom walked away. "I wonder" Bloom said walking away. She walked to her dad, and knocked on his pede. "Hey dad, can I get a lift?" asked Bloom pointing up. He looked down at her, kneeled to her level, and she stood on his servo. He stood back up, and Bloom put her hands on her hips. "Is there something your hiding from me? Because doc bot won't let me see what's under that tarp. If it's for my birthday, it was last week" said Bloom and Optimus looked at the calendar on the computer. "We must have been doing a mission that day. I'm sorry starlight" said Optimus and Ratchet walked over. "I guess we took that time to perfect your present, were sincerely sorry little one. We'll have it ready soon. Now off you go. You have school tomorrow." Said Ratchet and Bloom yawned. Optimus walked to her quarters, and opened the autobot sized door. He let her get into the bed, and she hugged his finger goodnight. "Night Dad" Said Bloom and Optimus left the room.

The next day at Jasper high school

Bloom was dropped off by Arcee, and when she got off, Sadie replaced her. "Be back at 3. Make sure that Jack Darby kid comes with you." Said Arcee and Bloom nodded. "Got it" Said Bloom and Arcee stopped her by saying: "Do you have your earpiece?" Bloom touched her ear, and felt plastic wrapping around it. "Yes I do. I probably slept with it on last night. Later Aunt Cee" said Bloom and she ran off into the school with her purse hanging off her shoulder while her Backpack was rolling behind her.

In the halls

Bloom walked up to her locker, put in the combination, and started to get her books when a boy with blonde hair walked up, and smiled creepily at her. "Hey there babe, Wanna hang out after school?" asked Vince and she looked at him while he wore a pair of blue jeans, white t-shirt, orange and yellow football jersey, and had his blonde hair spiked. "I don't think so jar head." Said Bloom and she walked off not after Vince grabbed her arm. She let her purse fall to the ground, and she took his arm, and flipped him over her, and onto his back. "Next time you mess with me, remember I'm a 3rd degree black belt in ju-jitsu, and in karate" said Bloom and she walked away with her recovered purse. Vince got up with more than just a bruised ego.

After school

Bloom stood outside the school, patiently waiting for Jack to walk out. She looked at the entrance, and she spotted Jack walking out of the school and pass a girl of Asian origin, black hair in pigtails, pink stripe on bangs, purple t-shirt underneath a blue and yellow tank-top with a green monster on it, blue jean shorts with a large yellow belt, purple and blue tights underneath, and brown combat boots with purple laces. She was sitting on the wall drawing Arcee, and she saw Jack walk over to the kid next to the tree. She got off her perch on the grass, and followed Jack over to the curb. The girl on the wall sat with her legs crossed while she drew Arcee in her sketch pad. The two walked to the boy and Jack looked nervous. "Look Raf, let's just keep this between us, and pretend nothing happened." Said Jack and Bloom giggled.

"You'll never forget what happened. I live with them, and I forget their even robots. I just think of them as my family." Bloom said holding her sketch book in her arms. Jack looked at her, and raised an eye-brow. "Who are you?" asked Jack and Bloom smiled. "I'm Bloom. Don't worry about how I know them." They all heard a horn beeping and Raf grabbed Jack's sleeve. "Jack look!" said Raf, and Bloom smiled. "Hey bee" Said Bloom and the car beeped at her. –Hey Bloom, I thought Arcee was picking you up? - asked Bumble-bee and Bloom shook her head. Raf looked at the car, and at the girl. "You understood him too?" asked Raf, and Bloom froze. "What? You understand him?" asked Bloom amazed. Bumble-bee opened his passenger door. –Get in kid and Bloom - said Bumblebee and jack looked confused. "It wants us to get in" said Jack and Raf shook his head. "no, just me and Bloom." Said Raf. "how do you know that?" asked Jack. "it said so" said Raf, and Bloom walked to the driver's side. "yours is over there" said Raf pointing to the blue motorcycle in the parking lot. "She's not gonna bite Jack." Bloom said buckling in. "How's it going?" asked Raf as he climbed in. Bee closed the door, and drove away. "Wait! Stop!" said Jack and then he looked over at the motorcycle, and then walked away. The girl on the wall was busing herself by drawing the bike in her sketch book. "coolest…bike….ever" said the girl sketching her crude version of Arcee. Her phone went off, and she pulled out her pink flip phone. She opened it and saw a picture of a couple. "ugh, host parents….ignore" said the girl and she hung up. She picked up her sketch book again and finished her drawing. She looked at the bike again, and it was gone. She turned around and saw the bike drive away. The girl turned around on the wall and ran after it.

Arcee pulled into an alleyway infront of Jack and stopped. Jack looked up and stepped back. "Relax, I just wanna talk to you" said Arcee and jack rolled his eyes. "Don't you mean you and your new friend?" asked Jack and the Holo-form dissapered infront of his eyes. He backed up and Arcee rolled forward. "Kid, there's a lot you don't understand" said Arcee. "I get it, I get it. First rule about robot fight club, is don't talk about robot fight club." Said Jack. "What you don't understand is that I don't want a bunch of talking robots following my around all the time to get me killed." Jack said and Arcee transformed behind him. "Look, Jack is it? Your personal safety is exactly why Optimus Prime requests your presence" said Arcee leaning closer. "Wait, Optimus who?" asked Jack a little freaked out. "You may be in danger because you are one of the few, one of the only that have ever seen us" said Arcee and there was a girl's voice from behind Jack. "Dude, what are you waiting for? Go with!" said the girl, and she looked defeated. "Scrap" said Arcee and she transformed back into her vehicle form. The kids got on, and they rode all the way out to the desert.

Desert

Bumble-bee and Arcee drive down the road and on Arcee is Jack and the girl from earlier. She flings her arms up, and screams "whahoo!" jack looks back at her annoyed. "And why exactly are we taking her?" asked Jack to the motorcycle. "rules" said Arcee, and they continued to drive until they got to the side of a cliff, and they all braced for impact, (except for bloom who was relaxing inside Bumble-bee) and the bots just sped forward.

Inside the autobot base

The kids look around as they drive into the base, and they get off/out of the bots. Miko (Asian origin) Raf (short kid with glasses) and Jack (previously described) walk away from the transforming bots, and look at the large orange and white bot at the computer. He walked over to a large green one and looked confused. "I thought there were only two, except Bloom of course" said the bot and the kids looked at her. "I told you I lived here" said Bloom walking to the stairs. "haven't ya heard? Humans multiply" said Arcee walking off. "I'm Raf" the kid said to Miko before she walked away, obviously too interested in the big green bot. "I'm Miko, who are you?" asked Miko to the bot. "Bulkhead" said the bot, and Miko smiled. "are you a car? I bet you're a truck, a monster truck!" said Miko with tons of energy. "do you like heavy metal? How much do you weigh? Ever use a wrecking ball as a punching bag?" asked Miko, and poor Bulkhead just looked at her.

"So if you guys are robots, who made you?" asked Raf adjusting his glasses. "Puh-lease" said Ratchet, and the room started shaking. Bloom held onto the rail, and saw her dad walk in. "we are autonomous robotic organisms, from the planet Cybertron. Also known as Auto-bots" said Optimus.

Jack stepped up on the autobot symbol, and looked up at him. "why are you here?" asked Jack and Bloom walked up to them. "to protect your planet from the decepticons" said Optimus and he looked at Arcee. "the jokers who tried to bump us off last night" said Arcee clarifying. He looked back at Optimus and Bloom leaned against his foot while looking at the kids. He looked down at her, and she smiled. "Oh, please continue" said Bloom yawning. "okay, why are they here?" asked Jack and bloom fell over when Optimus kneeled down to his level. She got up shortly rubbing her butt, and stood away from the bot. "a fair question jack. In part they are here because our planet is un-inhabitable, ravaged by centuries of civil war." Said Optimus. "Why were you fighting a war?" asked Raf, and Optimus looked at him now. "Foremost over the supply of energon, the fuel and lifeblood of all autobots, and decepticons alike" said Optimus. "The combat was fierce and endured for centuries. In the beginning, I fought alongside one I considered a brother" said Optimus and Bloom rolled her eyes. "ya that was before uncle Megatronus got all evil" said Bloom under her breath, quiet enough so no-one heard her. He continued. "but in war, ideals can be corrupted, and it was then, that Megatron lost his way" said Optimus and Miko sighed. "is there gonna be a quiz" asked Miko twirling her hair. Bloom looked like she was about to rip her head off. "I can't believe you just interrupted him. Are you nutso?" asked Bloom standing infront of her. Optimus picked her up by her collar, and moved her away from the girl. "So how does megatron, or any of this have to do with us?" asked Jack a little concerned. "Megatron has not been seen or heard from in some time. But if his return is eminent, as I fear, It could be catastrophic." Said Optimus and Bloom looked up at him worried. He put his hand down for her to climb on and she sat in it with her arms around her legs.

On the nemesis

Sound wave walks up behind Star-scream and plays some kind of transmission on his view screen. "those transmissions sound like their coming from deep space. I would hate to waste the energon, unless you are absolutely sure?" asked Star-scream making a fist. Sound-Wave nodded and scream looked disappointed. "then lock onto transmission coordinates, and activate the spacebridge," said Star-scream to a vehicon at a computer on the bridge.

Deep space

The Space-bridge, a metal ring floating in the middle of space, lights up with a blue-green light, and a silver and blue plane flew through. It transformed into the leader of the Decepticons. His armor was bulky but slender with curved spikes on his shoulders, and large cannon on his right arm. "DECEPTICONS! I have returned" said Megatron as his red optics glowed evilly.

Nebraska-Energon mine

The ship hovers over a hole in the mountain, and lowers a long yellow tube to the ground. Star-scream and megatron walked through the mine of blue crystals as Star-scream talked. "of the energon deposits we have located while you were away lord megatron, this one by far is the most significant" said Star-scream to his master. "the drones have been mining without pause during your absence. You! (drone looks up) fetch me a sample. (drone runs away)" said Star-scream, and Megatron walked up to the ledge beside him. "Star-scream, now that I have returned, I will issue the demands" said the decepticon leader with his hands behind his back. "Yes lord megatron" said Star-scream, and he felt a little disappointed. "then as your humble servant, shall I ready the space bridge to bring forth the decepticon army you surely have gathered your three year journey in space" said Star-scream sarcastically. "my army will come, but my time away has yielded more intriguing means of materializing them. The solidified form of the matter the ancient texts refer to as the blood of unicron." Said Megatron and he held up a purple glowing crystal in his hand with jagged edges and an eerie glow came off of it. "Unicron the destroyer? But it is said that his blood is the anti-spark" said the silver seeker next to him observing the stone. "plucked from the cosmic shores, Gaze upon Dark energon" Said Megatron. "Legend tells that it holds the power to revive the dead" "We require only a cadaver to be certain. Are you willing to make the ultimate sacrifice?" asked Megatron and the seeker looked nervous.

"That may not be necessary. If I may Lord Megatron" said Star-scream, as a platform came up and two vehicons stood with a familiar red bot with a missing horn. "Consider it a welcome home present" said Star-scream and Megatron smiled evilly.

Jasper Nevada-Autobot Base

The bots all stood around the humans, and the humans looked up at them, besides Bloom who sat on Ratchet's shoulder. "And since you know of our existence, I fear as of last night, the decepticons know of yours" said Optimus and Bloom smiled from her perch. "got it, if we spot any strange vehicles, call 911, can we leave now?" asked Jack and Miko looked at him. "are you insane? I'm living a dream here in Botswana, and I will not let you or anyone else to shatter it." Miko said pointing a finger at him. "it is best that you three remain under our watch. At least until we can determine our enemies' intentions." Said Optimus and Bloom crossed her arms over her chest in annoyance. "Optimus, with all due respect, the human children are in as much danger here as anywhere" Ratchet said with a hint of annoyance in his voice. "Children?" jack asked offended. "I seem to know a certain girl who has lived here since she was 6 thank you very much" said Bloom a little offended and he glared at her. "they have no protective shell, if they get underfoot, than they will go squish" said Ratchet stepping forward in emphasis. Bloom got annoyed and jumped onto the platform of the base with the couch and Television. "then for the time being Ratchet, we must watch where we step." Said Optimus and she laughed from behind them. Ratchet turned around and glared at her with the "I'm going to throw a wrench at you" look.

Suddenly a green light flashed through the room, and Ratchet looked at the computer. Bloom sat back on the couch while the other kids looked around. "what's that?" asked Jack holding his ears. Bumble-bee turned around and said, -proximity alert, someone's up top- and Raf translated to the kids. "Proximity sensor, someone's up top" said Raf and Bloom looked over in shock. "how can you understand him?" asked Bloom and Raf shrugged his shoulders. Ratchet pulled up the security camera from the roof and saw a helicopter. "it's agent fowler." Said Ratchet, "I thought we were the only humans who knew about you guys?" asked Jack and Bloom glared at him. "wanna try that again?" asked Bloom with a raised eyebrow. "I included you" said Jack and Bloom rolled her eyes. "sure, whatever" said Bloom and turned back to her show. "special agent fowler is our designated liaison to the outside world. As he tends to visit only when there are issues, it is best that you do not meet him at this time." Said Optimus and the kids looked at bloom. "what about her?" asked Miko.

"Agent Fowler is the reason she is here. Her parents were taken from her in what you humans call a "robbery" and I rescued her from being an orphan. She has lived here for ten years now" said Optimus and Bloom looked at him with small tears in her eyes. The kids hid behind a wall, and peeked around to see the agent coming from the elevator. The door opened to reveal an African American man wearing a faded grey suit, with a too short tie, and he had black shoes on. "7 wrecks, 34 fender benders, 3 hour traffic jam, a particular note. Numerous reports of a speeding motorcycle of unknown make and a black and yellow muscle car (Arcee and Bumble-bee look at each other) anything you like to get off your tin-chest Prime?" asked Fowler in a sour mood. "hey, chill before you have a heart attack tubby" said Bloom reading a magazine. "ah, it's good to see you again Bloom. I'm surprised you're alive since you live with a bunch of giants." Said Fowler. Optimus walked up to him with his battle mask over his mouth. "we have the situation under control agent fowler." Said Optimus and Bloom hummed a song she made up. "Their back aren't they?" asked Fowler and Optimus looked at his daughter with a sad expression. "if you are referring to the decepticons, then I have doughts's they ever left, your planet is much too valuable." Said Optimus and Fowler got serious. "time to wake up the pentagon" said Fowler. Bloom looked over, and put her magazine down to listen into the conversation. "hear me agent fowler, we are your best, possibly your only defense against the decepticon threat." Optimus said while his optics glowed angrily. "Says you" said Fowler and Bulkhead walked up.

"Hey fleshy! Did anyone get splattered on that freeway? Team prime knows when to use force (picks up metal arm out of its unit) and how much to use" said Bulkhead and he crushed it. "BULKHEAD I NEEDED THAT!" said Ratchet about to choke him. Bloom couldn't help but laugh at the two.

"ENOUGH!" yelled Optimus and focused his attention back to Agent Fowler. "Military involvement will only end in catastrophe. Perhaps you can condone widespread human casualties agent fowler, I however cannot." Said Optimus and Bloom snickered. "Then do us both a favor and handle this prime, under the radar. (gets in elevator) or I will" said Agent fowler before the doors closed on him. "Pretty big bearings for a human" said bulkhead walking up next to Optimus. "Agent Fowler is concerned for his world bulkhead, as he should be" said Optimus and Bloom got up from the couch. "You guys can come out now. Fowler's gone" said Bloom leaning over the rail. The kids walked out, and Miko ran up the stairs and up to Bloom.

"Where did you come from? Who are your real parents? Why are your eyes the same color as Optimus'?" Miko asked a million miles a minute and Bloom just stared at the girl. "Did you have Sugar for breakfast this morning?" asked Bloom walking around her. "Maybe" Miko said and followed her to the human computer. Bloom pulled up a Microsoft word document and Miko saw it had stories of all the adventures she went on as a kid with the Autobots. "Wow, you must be the coolest person ever" said Miko skimming through the words. "Not really, that title is reserved by Batman" said Bloom holding up a Batman action figure from the desk. Miko rolled her eyes, and pulled out a superman figurine. "Super man's the bomb! He's got super powers that'll crush Batman like a pancake." Said Miko and Bloom stood at least a foot taller than her without her heels. "Ya know I can flatten you like a pancake now if you want" said Bloom and Miko laughed. "Whatever" said Miko, and she walked away while stuffing her superman action figure back in the pouch on her belt.

Back with Megatron

The now Offline Cliff-jumper laid on a metal glider while one of his horns was missing. Megatron walks over with the dark energon shard, and says "let us see if the power born of darkness can re-ignite the spark" and he plunged the crystal into Cliff's chassis. The crystal glowed, sank into the body of cliff, and he started snarling. His body lurched around, and once he broke free of his binds, he attacked a vehicon, and started beating the scrap out him. Old screamer stood behind Megatron while he cringed at the sight before him. Zombie cliff started beating the vehicon, and he ripped its gun/arm off while leaving the socket sparking. Several Cons started shooting at the Zombie bot, and he turned around and attacked the con firing at him. "That's your plan! To bring auto-bots back from the dead to attack us?" asked Star-scream in a frightened girly voice.

"That is no longer an auto-bot; it's a mindless beast whose only instinct is to destroy anything in its path. (Zombie cliff jumps at Megatron and he cut it in half diagonally, and he fell to the ground in two pieces sparking at the severed parts) there Star-scream, the indestructible seed of my army. The ultimate weapon" Megatron said before grabbing the part of cliff that had a head attached, and throws it down to the platform beneath them. "Once I learn to control it." Said Megatron as he watched the zombie con lay there sparking.

Auto-bot base

Ratchet stands at the computer and a green signal popped up in the screen. "Blasted earth tech. Cliff-jumper's life signal popped back online" said Ratchet and Bloom looked over at him in worry. "Who's cliff-jumper?" asked Miko and Bloom walked over to her and put a hand on her shoulder. "He was Arcee's old partner, and my uncle. He went offline the day you guys met the bots." Said Bloom and Jack looked up at Arcee. "How is that possible?" asked Optimus walking up to his friend. "It's not, it's another bug, this system's chock full of them." Said Ratchet and Arcee walked up while picking Bloom up. "If there's any chance Cliff's alive" said Arcee before she was interrupted. "Ratchet, prepare med-bay, we may need it" said Optimus and Arcee looked down at Bloom in her hand. "ya know, you can only hope for the best Aunt Cee" said Bloom and Arcee smiled at her.

"Hey, what can we do?" asked Miko walking up. "Stay with Ratchet and Bloom." Said Optimus and Bloom gave Arcee a reassuring smile and she was placed on the floor again. The ground-bridge opened, and the hole in the wall lit up with 7 rings of blue light, and the swirl of blue and green lights appeared forming the ground-bridge. "auto-bots roll out" said Optimus and they went to vehicular mode and drove through the bridge. "What just happened?" asked Jack a little amazed while leaning against the rail to get a better look. "I transported them to the designated coordinates via the ground-bridge." Said Ratchet like it was a normal thing. "What's a ground-bridge?" asked Raf. "Ugh, a scaled down version of space bridge technology." Said Ratchet a little annoyed. "Since we don't have the means or the energon required for inter-galactic travel" "you're stuck here. On earth" said Jack interrupting him. "with the likes of you, yes" said Ratchet and Bloom put her hands on her hips and glared at the bot. "but I constructed the ground-bridge to enable travel from here to anywhere on your planet." Said ratchet and Raf looked at the bridge, now closed. "Does it work for humans?" asked Raf turning to the doc-bot. "naturally." Said Ratchet and Bloom smiled at his curiosity. "You mean I can shoot on over and visit my parents in Tokyo?" asked Miko excited. "In moments, in fact allow me to send you there immediately, all three of you" said Ratchet and Miko smiled at him. "Watch it ratchet" said Miko and Bloom laughed. Ratchet turned back to his work and Bloom gathered the kids together.

"So anyone want to play a game? It's called "Annoy ratchet" said Bloom quietly to the other children. They smiled and Bloom took out a pair of symbols from the closet under the stairs, and Miko got out a guitar with an amp. "Be careful with that Miko. That guitar is older than you are" said Bloom and she saw Miko start rocking out.

Bloom banged the symbols, Raf ignored them and typed on his computer, and Jack took out his harmonica and played off key notes. Every time they made a noise, Ratchet cringed and started reaching for his tool box. "Primus, I swear I will throw something at you!" said Ratchet and Bloom stopped once she felt her legs feel weak. "Ratchet, why do my legs feel funny?" asked Bloom and she collapsed on the floor. Ratchet turned around and his optics flew open in shock. "What happened?" asked Ratchet and Jack looked panicked. "I don't know, she just passed out." Said Jack and Bloom looked around at her surroundings a few minutes later. "What happened?" asked Bloom sitting up. "You passed out. Ratchet is still trying to figure out why." Said Jack as she looked at where she was. She was lying on the couch with a rag on her forehead. Ratchet turned around and he smiled. "You were just dehydrated. Jack, can you get her a water bottle out of the fridge?" asked Ratchet and Jack ran to the kitchen area.

Jack came back moments later and Bloom accepted the water. "Thanks Jack. So anyone want to play some video games?" asked Bloom and picked up her controller. Miko sat beside her and just to annoy her, she popped in a batman game. "Seriously Bloom! That's just cruel" said Miko and Bloom kicked her butt in the melee fighting challenge against Batman (Bloom) and the Joker (Miko). They played for a few hours until she heard Ratchet complaining. "How come you're using human computers?" asked Raf standing next to him.

She really didn't pay attention to what else was going on and she saw Miko get fed up and quit after Bloom beat her six times. "Sore looser" said Bloom and Miko stuck out her tongue. "You know it" said Miko.
