The final bell rang, it's finally the end of the day. 5th grade is rough, the bullies constantly pick on me because I'm a huge transformers fan. I might only be 10, but I know almost everything about the movies. The names of both the Autobots and Decepticons, even the new guy in Age of Extinction.

His name is Lockdown, and he's awesome! He has to be my favorite out of all the characters, Optimus Prime comes in second. But I was really sad when I saw Lockdown die, there should have been more of him in the movies! Where was he??

"Ariel! Are you coming?" My friend Cassidy said to me. Yes, I have the name from the famous Disney movie The Little Mermaid. I even have red hair, I'm a born ginger.

"Yeah, I'm coming." I grabbed my Frozen backpack and followed her out of the classroom. I already got everything I need in my backpack.

Our classroom is right near the exit, so Cassidy and I simply walk out and start heading home. Thank god it's Friday, I can finally sleep in for two days. At this school, you have to be here by 7:30 in the morning. I get up at 6 am, it ain't cool either.

Cassidy and I are both neighbors and best friends, we walk home from school every day. Our houses are a five minute walk from the school, so there's no point in taking the bus.

"Are you excited for the next Transformers movie, 'The Last Knight' coming next year?" Cassidy asked.

"Of course! I heard that Barricade and Predacons are coming in, I think Nemesis Prime too. Not entirely sure." I say excitedly.

"Yeah, I just hope it shows more robots than humans this time." She said.

"Me too! Come on, it's called Transformers for a reason, not humans!" I say.

"Exactly! But I know you wished that Lockdown survived in Age of Extinction." Cassidy said.

"Yeah..." I said glumly.

A small shine in the grass caught my eye. I look at where the shine came from, and there's a toy. I got a little closer to pick it up, and it's not just any toy. It's a Lockdown toy.

I gently pick it up and look at it, it looks so real! It has the scars, dents, details, everything but the ship. It doesn't even shine like plastic, it shines like metal. Cassidy looks at it as I feel the detailing on the toys chest.

"That thing is so realistic!" She said.

"I know, I'm gonna take it home and keep it until Monday. I'll take it to school to see if it belongs to anybody, if not, I'm keeping it." I say, hoping it has no owner.

I gently put the toy in my backpack and zip it closed, then we continue walking to our houses. There they are! Cassidy waved goodbye and headed into her house while I go to mine. My Mom and Daddy aren't home yet, I'm always alone for at least 30 minutes before they come home.

I put my backpack on the table and pull out my stuff, my lunchbox, sketchbook where I draw transformers, the Lockdown toy and my sweatshirt. I take out the peanut butter and jelly sandwich I saved from lunch, wasn't really hungry today. But I am now!

I open the Ziplock bag and take out my sandwich, then I take a bite of it. Mmmmm, peanut butter is my favorite. I can't get enough of it.

As I'm eating, I heard a grunt. I immediately stop eating and look around for whoever grunted, but there's nobody. The grunt sounded relatively close by, like right in front of me almost. But the only thing in front of me is the Lockdown toy, that's really weird.

I ignore it and go back to my sandwich, I hear a groan this time. I look around again, nobody. But it's coming from right in front of me, I'm getting a little scared.

The front door opens, "Ariel, we're home early today." It's my parents!

"Mom! Daddy! I'm hearing strange noises in the kitchen, can you check?" I ask.

"Noises?" Daddy walked into the kitchen and looked around, he then saw the toy on the table.

"Ariel, where did you find this toy?" He asks.

"I found it while walking home, I'm taking it to school on Monday in case it belongs to anyone." I say. Mom comes in and sees the Lockdown toy, she then picks it up.

"Ariel, I trust you to take this up to your room and keep it in good shape until you take it to school." Mom said like she normally does, like swearing an oath.

"I'll take it upstairs right now." I swipe the toy from my Moms hand and run up the stairs, I open my bedroom door and walk in. I set the Lockdown toy on my small nightstand next to my bed gently, I reposition his arms and sit him up straight.

"There you go Lockdown." I said.

Time Skip to next morning I'm lazeh.

It's Saturday morning, I'm awake but my eyes are closed. I don't feel like getting up yet, too early.

"Human." A voice said. That voice was awfully familiar, but I'm probably just hearing things. I ignore the voice and keep my eyes closed. But then I feel something crawling onto my belly.

"Human!" The same voice said again. My eyes snap open, oh my gosh. The Lockdown toy is standing on my stomach, and its MOVING by itself! I'm about to scream when Lockdown held out his knife towards my nose,

"Don't you make a sound." He threatens. I take the knife out of his little hands and hold it above his head, Lockdown's face expression got more angry.

"Give me that!" He snapped.

"No. Now why are you alive? You're a toy." I argue. Mini Lockdown looked rather confused.

"Toy?! I'm not a toy! I was on a mission looking for something when I was hit with a shrink ray." The mini Lockdown explained.

"You're a movie character! You're not supposed to be real, let alone alive! In fact, Optimus Prime killed you by stabbing you right here with his sword," I poked his small chest, "and he pulled up, splitting your head in half." Lockdown looked rather surprised when I said that.

"I was killed by Prime? But that's not why I'm here, what is your name human?" He asks me.

"It's Ariel." I say.

"Ariel, I demand that you let me go about my business." Lockdown said.

"Wait! I want to ask you some questions." I said.

"What kind of questions?" Lockdown asks.

"Like why did you become a bounty hunter?" I ask.

"Caught my attention." He responded.

"Why do you prefer to be neutral?" He shrugs.

"Wow, that's real specific." I said sarcastically.

"I must go now." Lockdown hopped off my stomach.

I can't believe that this little toy I found is actually the real Lockdown!! He's normally around 30 feet tall, now he's about 8 inches tall. It's actually kinda adorable, I took his battle knife and he couldn't get it back on his own.

"Ariel, are you up yet?" My father called.

I grabbed Lockdown, "Put me down Ari-"

I shoved him under my pillow to keep him quiet. I leaned against it to be sure it kept him quiet. My father came in and I acted casual.

"Oh good, you are up. You can't just sleep the day away." My Daddy joked.

"I know Daddy." I said.

I feel Lockdown trying to free himself, I just push the pillow down enough to make him stop. My father nodded and went back downstairs, that was close. I pull the pillow off of mini Lockdown.

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" He shouted.

"Hey! I was keeping you hidden from my parents! They'll kill the pair of us if they found out you're here!" I hissed.

"They won't find out I'm here, because I'm getting out of here!" Lockdown stood up on my bed.

"No you're not, not until that shrink effect wears off. Do you have any idea how many fans there are of you? They'll rip you to shreds! I'm a fan of you too, but I'm not totally crazy like other Fangirls." I whispered.

"I make my own decisions! I'm leaving!" He retorted.

"You can't even get off my bed on your own! You're only eight inches tall!" I argued.

"I can handle myself as I have in the past! Farewell!" Lockdown jumped off my bed and onto the floor, only he fell face first into the carpet. He just proved my point.

"Really? You can handle yourself as an action figure? Good luck." I emphasized my sarcasm.

Lockdown just groaned as he got back up, "Give me my weapon back, please."

"What are you gonna do with it? Make toast? That's all it's good for right now." I said.

"Fine! I'll stay here until I figure something out." Lockdown gave up on arguing with me.

"Cool! I can't believe that I actually have the main bad guy from Age of Extinction in my room, it's unnatural and weird, but it's kinda cool nonetheless." I said.

"Whatever." He grumbled.

"Just be glad I don't play with dolls, or I would put a little pink dress on you right now." I smiled as I kneeled down towards him.

"I am now very grateful I met you instead of another female human." Lockdown said.

"Exactly my point. But whenever you hear someone instead of me coming in, hide where no one can find you. Like under my bed or behind my nightstand." I pointed to my nightstand.

"Alright, fine." Lockdown said with annoyance.

"I'm sure you'll figure something out eventually." I patted his small little head with my finger. He swatted my finger away in irritation.

"Don't do that." Lockdown snapped.

"Alright, but be careful around here." I said as I walked downstairs to make myself some breakfast.

This is going to be so weird...
