Wow this was a long time coming. I've had some terrible writers block but hopefully that will be gone for a while. Anyway, I really liked the new Transformer movie. You can see it in the story. XD I just had to put it in there.

Anyway this chapter is kinda boring, but important. I can't even wait to get to the good stuff, but that will be a while c; I have to set everything up first.

Enjoy!


Smoke swirled around in the frosty air never staying in the circle they were formed into. I waved my hand in the smoke stirring it up even more. The Professor didn't approve of me smoking so I had to lean out the window in order to keep the smell out. It had been two weeks sense the night Lockdown found me and saved me in that ally. I didn't tell Megatron about it. I had a feeling he already knew, in fact I was pretty sure he had paid Lockdown. It had also been two weeks sense I had last seen Henry. He was still ignoring me which infuriated me. I had done nothing wrong; I just lucked out over him. I crushed my cigarette in my hand in my frustration.

You'll burn your hand.

I turned around and shrugged at Megatron. I was so used to him being in my head I hadn't even jumped at his voice. It was nearing four, clock-out time for me. Professor Sumdac hadn't been in all day and I didn't feel like waiting any longer. He was off in another part of the tower and I didn't think he would mind if I left a little early.

I'm sick of waiting. I'm out Megs.

Going on your nightly rounds again?

I thought for a moment. Ever sense Lockdown had told me to watch the city I had been nearly every night. I now knew this city better then anyone else. I had seen Lockdown a few more times and had nearly found the Autobot base. I was aware of everything Cybertronian in my city.

I might. I haven't had a full night sleep in a while though. Maybe; we'll see wont we.

I smiled at Megatron. Our bond multiplied exponentially when I was in my robot mode. I loved the closeness and I knew it could only grow.

I might stop by later. If that's ok?

Yes… Unless that idiot human is still here.

Sparks shot out of his head launching all over the lab. The machinery crackled and smoked.

"Hey, hey, hey! We don't want to draw any suspicion cut that out!" I yelled while I snuffed out a small flame with my jacket. Megatron's little fits were getting worse by the day. The professor and I still had no idea how to get a new body for him. There weren't the right metallic formations of organic cybertronian metal on earth. It wasn't possible.

"Good Lord we need to get you a hobby. Maybe scrapbooking." I snickered to myself

"This isn't a laughing matter. I need a body!"

"Don't take it out on me ok?"

Megatron just growled and glared in my direction.

"Ok that's it I'm not talking to you for ten seconds."

"WHAT?"

"Five more seconds."

One of the claws in the lab shot out and grabbed my by my waist and hung me upside down. I kicked and struggled to no avail. I glared right back at Megatron.

"Finished?" He asked.

"Yes, fine, whatever. Put me down."

I crossed my arms as my world righted itself. I brushed off my lab coat in irritation. It was covered in grease. I opened my mouth to say something when a pounded came from the lab door.

"Dad? Are you ok? The alarm went off but no one came. What's going on? Dad? Are you even in there?"

"Shit!" I whispered franticly looking for a way out. The pounded and calling continued from the door. Who was this kid? I looked around the room and there was only one l door out of the lab. Damn.

It's only a human child

I know but its Sumdac's kid!

Megatron groaned over the pounding and rolled his eye.

Go

"Fine you don't even care."

"No I don't."

I threw my arms up in frustration and marched to the door. The racket had finally stopped. I pulled in a deep breath and opened the door.

I was looking down at a very disgruntled child. She was small, coming up to only my waist. She was wearing a bright yellow dress with matching boots. Her bright red eyes glowered up at me under her pigtails. I looked her over in seconds but my eyes glued to the brightly glowing key hanging around her neck. It glowed the same way that all Transformers did in my eyes. I had to have it. I needed it. Who cares who this child is? I didn't no one would miss her. I could kill her so quickly. It would be silent and swift. I partially transformed my hand in to the sharp claws of my robot form and halfway raised my hand.

"What are you staring at? Where's my dad? You must be his new assistant."

Her speaking broke my trance. I quickly lowered my arms and let it become a normal hand. I squatted down to eye level with the girl.

"I am the new assistant, and you must be?"

"Sari, Sari Sumdac."

We stared at each other. She seemed familiar, I couldn't pin point where but I felt as if I knew her. Perhaps it was her eyes which seemed so ageless in her young features. Maybe it was her tiny wrist that were so much like mine or her hair which was close to the shade of my mothers. She continued to stare, sizing me up. As much as I tried I couldn't stop looking at her key. There was something nagging on my mind, something important.

"So… do you know where my dad is?" she asked breaking our silence.

I blinked several times and shook my head as if I were shaking off flies. I had lost my thoughts I couldn't think right with that key around.

"He's on the third floor; he needed a battery I think. I was about to leave actually."

"Oh, well see you."

The small child seemed sad. She hung her head just slightly and walked down the hall. The second I could no longer sense the key my head nearly split open in pain. I clutched at my head as my knees buckled. The pain pulsed and quickened pounding my skull. I let out a small cry unable to restrain the noise. I heard screaming in my head, a large, deep, heart breaking scream. Over and over again the same scream. The pain was multiplying so quickly. I couldn't move I couldn't think. I collapsed onto the ground and felt my self shake with shivers, chattering my teeth.

Then it stopped. I opened my eyes the world fuzzy and alien. I blinked and the world righted itself. There was a slight pressure on the middle of my forehead and I looked up and found that the child, Sari, was holding the key to my head.

"What just happened?"

"I don't know." Sari replied. "You just cried out and collapsed. I called someone to come to take a look at you."

I sat up and rubbed my head. I was still in the door way. I grabbed onto the door frame and pulled my self up. I wasn't dizzy, or faint. I felt fine.

"You didn't need to call anyone I'm fine."

I push past her and walked to the elevator. Sari followed me inside the box. I stood in the middle of the elevator with her behind me. I felt a tug on my jacket.

"You really should let my friends look at you. You stopped shaking after my key touched you."

"And I really just want to go home."

The elevator opened to the atrium and I walked out. I pulled my sunglasses on and went out the sliding glass doors. Sari was right on my heels, I could hear her soft footsteps behind me. As soon as I was out side I pulled out another cigarette. I looked down the street and saw a line of cars coming to the tower. The first was a fire truck, then an ambulance, and an unmanned motor cycle.

"Shit." I breathed as I took a long drag and put out my fresh cigarette.

I let the last of my smoke come out of my nose as I rounded on the little girl. I took my sunglasses off to look right at her, my new red eyes glinting.

"This is who you called?" I said venom in my voice.

"I don't need any help from Autobots. Never will."

"But the key I-I just thought maybe…" Sari stammered

"Thought what? It was just a coincidence with that key. I'm fine. I'm human like you. Nothing wrong but you had to cal Autobots" I whispered in disgust.

The three Autobots stopped behind me. I turned on the spot, sunglasses in hand and looked up at them.

"Well what do you want?" I asked crossing my arms.

"Sari told us there was a medical issue with her key." The older ambulance one said.

I felt a tiny tug from Megatron and I opened our connection.

Don't let them know what you are. Make them believe you are human.

That's what I'm working on I'm trying.

"Well there isn't an issue. I'm fine. Sari just over reacted."

I shot a glare at her.

"If you don't mind miss we'd still like to see for ourselves." The fire truck said.

The ambulance reached a hand out to me.

What should I do! I cried out to Megatron. Half of my minds in his, the other half watching the hand come closer. Then I felt my mind slip. I wasn't in my body anymore. Well I was but I wasn't really doing anything.

"Don't touch me Autobot." I heard my self growl. It was a far deeper voice then mine.

The older transformer paused right before my body. My body lashed out and hit the hand away. I fell back into my own self. My eyes wide and my mouth hanging open in horror. I looked at each Autobot, spun on my heel and ran as if hell itself were chasing me.
