Iris:

"Ugh.." I tapped my finger to my school table and looked at the watch.. 10 minutes still. Jack waited eagerly too, we hated Mr.s Johnsson's classes.

Two days had passed on again and our relationship with the Autobots had became more warmer. Although I hadn't seen any sign of Decepticons.. what a bummer.

"You're dismissed, remember to read your homework, I'll keep small test of it."

Until the ring bell could be heard and I technically run out with Jack. We walked the long hallway and sighed in relief.

"She's the worst." Jack started.

"I hate her." I replied.

"About what again?" We looked end of the hallway to see Miko and Raf talk to one muscular man, behind him stood two other ones. We had still couple of hours, but..

"What's going on?" Jack asked, they turned to us.

"Jack! Iris!" Miko said and grabbed our hands. "These are the other two." She introduced, the man with scar on his face looked at us.

"I see." He said and nodded towards us. "Pleasure to meet you."

"Likewise.. I guess." I said and crossed my arms. What was going on? Who were these guys?

"Pardon me miss Iris, but we believe you four has something to do with highly dangerous problem." He spoke up, we all tensed but didn't show it.

How.. does he know my name?

"Of what?" Raf played cool. Good boy!

"With dragons." He said, I shook my head almost immediately. In reality, I just wanted to run out of the school and tell dragons.

"There's some sort of mistake-" I grabbed Raf's sleeve and dragged him towards stairs. "We don't know anything, but we need to hurry now!" I stepped already two steps and saw others following.

"Don't you and Jack have school?" He asked, I glared at him.

"We're skipping them." Jack only said. Silas sighed.

"Teens, always running around and won't think things through." He said. "Going home?" He asked from me.

"On my way." I growled and keeped going. His laugh filled the staircase.

"Your father will be interested of this story!"

I pushed the doors open and we ran out. We glanced back to see he and his soldiers look down at us from window. We run to hide at one corner and panted heavily.

"We're screwed." Jack stated.

"What if they come back?" Raf asked.

"Daa? We kick their asses!" Miko yelled excitedly.

"We're sticking together! Not letting that let us down!" I warned and glanced one last time towards them. "We will not say a thing.. after all we promised.

"Let's just-" Jack sighed and led us all forward. "Get to the dragons."

~ Time skip ~

"Where in the name of Sam's pit are they?" I growled and stood on our normal waiting place.

"Late?" Raf asked.

"We can see that much." Miko replied. "But 20 minutes!? C'mon!"

"Maybe they got into a fight." Jack suggested.

"Then we have to walk." I got up and jumped down, then into the woods.

"Iris! God damnit-!" Jack run after me, but so did Miko and Raf too. "They're going to kill us for sure!"

"Who cares? This is exciting!" Miko squealed, I chuckled.

Exciting indeed.

What it took again? Yeah only 15 minutes before we had no clue where we were. But Jack had climbed into a tree and had showed towards East, we continued our trip then. But night was setting down..

"Ew! I stepped on something!" Miko jumped bit up and grabbed hold of me. My legs hurted sooo much.

"A bug?" Jack teased, Miko glared at him.

"You two be quiet." I growled and keeped going, now it was night dark. I hardly even saw where I was walking.

"Where are we even?" Raf asked.

"No idea, Iris you sure your sense of direction is right?" Miko teased, I glared at her also.

"No, but-" Suddenly the ground under me disappeared by single step forward, I looked to see others following greatly behind. We went muddy hill down with yells. We rolled to our sides and finally came to a stop.

"Wow!" Miko jumped up and looked down. "My clothes.." She whined.

"Okay, didn't go as planned." Jack replied and wiped the mud off. I got up and helped Raf while doing that.

"Guys-?" Miko asked, staring at something behind us. "Where are we..?" She asked with horrored tone.

We looked behind us to see two dead bears, included one deer and beside it was.. egg skins. About our sized egg. We gulped, I knew exactly what it was.

"It's.. a nest." Raf gasped, we tried to run the hill back up, soon. Too slippy. We always came down, then heard lighting strike and started raining.

"Great!" Miko yelled to the sky.

We all froze for heavy steps, and didn't dare to turn around. We felt them stop really close to us and low growling voice could be heard.

"It's going to kill us." Jack whispered, scared.

I took big gulp and turned slowly around, with same stare as first time with Megatron. I saw a male dragon with purple skin and red eyes, companied by.. smaller dragon.. baby one.

I froze at the adult's teeth and slumped on my butt, bringing my legs on my chest, submitting to him. I saw slowly my friends did same and sit down.

"What are you doing in here?" His low voice spoke up, we tensed.

"We.. came accidentally the hill down in meaning to go.. somewhere else. But couldn't get back up.." I said carefully, avoiding his gaze.

The small dragon baby gave small purring noice, I looked carefully at him. The sire of the sparkling (Ratchet tells us thing and two) approached us, leaving the baby aside with growl. I closed my eyes of fear 'he's going to kill us', but I felt myself being lifted up to the air. I peeked to see him raising all of us at same time back to the hill.

"Go already." He growled after putting us down.

"Thanks!" Miko said, I grabbed her hand quickly as we got moving.

"That. Was. Wierd!" Jack stated quietly. "Decepticon and Autobot! Did you notice their difference!?"

"I did!" I said quietly too and we keeped going.

~ Time skip ~

The rain got from bad to worse, we literally started to feel cold. The night wasn't helping much either. It was hard to move or see anything, all and all we were colding to our deaths and had hard time to remain mad.

"COME AND GET US!" Miko yelled, trying to get someone's attention.

"Be quiet!" Jack shushed her down, all of our arms crossed and our teeth clattered.

I heard wings air fload and glanced up to see four figures flying around.

"Cons." I stated, remembering the scale color of them. My friends gulped. "Get down." I pushed them with me under a huge tree.

"Miko, for once shut your mouth." Jack groaned and glanced up at the vehicons.

The many steps of someone filled again my ears as I turned to look at the direction. Only to see Megatron, followed one called 'Soundwave' and Starscream.. yeah Ratchet tolds us and much. They hadn't notice us just yet, so I pushed others going.

We run inti one direction and had no idea where.

"They didn't see us!" Jack said quietly, glancing back at them.

"Yet!"

"Until they smell us!" I replied with Miko and came to an edge of a cliff, we all almost fell down.

"Well, well, well-" We turned around to see Starscream. "All four seems to be here-" He looked up at the skyes. "Without their precious Autobots with."

"Go and frag yourself." Miko suggested.

"Fate keeps bringing us together after all." Starscream stepped aside, revealing Megatron to take his place. The grin formed up once more on his face. "What would you say?"

"Nice to see ya again. Can we go now?" I asked with growl, he chuckled.

"What does he mean?" Jack asked.

"Still has the temper I see, now how far that courage of yours will go?" Megatron asked, I grinned as he only took step forward. He probably wanted me to jump from the cliff.

"As long as I see your true motives." I replied, he gave small evil chuckle. He stepped forward once more, causing Jack to pull me back, but I struggled free and now stared at those bloody red eyes.

"I see no fear, human." He growled bit. "Why?"

"My nickname changed, bummer." I imitated Miko, earning a glare from her. "Maybe I just have no reason, do I?" I raised an eyebrow, he twitched his mouth.

"They're coming." Starscream informed, causing Megatron look up. I grinned.

I run away from him, scooped Raf, Miko and Jack into my arms and jumped down. Towards the fall.

"IRIS!" Jack yelled, with fear.

We landed on something, which I recognized as very familiar figure.

"Took you long enough!" I yelled to Optimus. He only glanced up at me, like I did also. We saw Megatron look after us, I only waved.

"What timing!" Miko squealed.

"What were you thinking?" Optimus asked again.

"We didn't see you guys.. and desided to walk." Jack shrugged it off, Optimus sighed.

"If I hadn't gone to look for you, only Primus knows what would've happen." He said sternly, we sighed.

"We know.." Raf murmured.

"Don't do that again." Optimus pleaded.

"We won't." I reassured, he raised his eyebrow. "I promise." I put a hand on my chest.

He made small nod and we keeped going.

Next morning came, and I scretched my arms. I yawned and layed my head back down on Optimus's leg with wide smile.

"You have no school?" Ratchet asked from Raf, I peeked bit to see.

"No, it's our day off, school desides when we have school and when not." Raf said with sigh. "Today was no different, luckily we don't have."

I saw Optimus raise his head up and yawn, I chuckled. He looked down at me with confusion.

"You looked cute." I stated and got bit clumsily up. "Wow, one of the best nights I've ever slept.." I sat down on one rock and yawned.

"Me too." Jack replied.

"You always sleep.." Miko murmured, earning a glare from Jack.

"Bon' apetit!" Wheeljack said when he came back from morning hunt and dropped a deer in front of us. Dead one. We raised our eyebrows at him.

"Na, ah! I'm not eating that!" I warned, pointing my finger at it.

"Me neither!" Miko jumped away from it.

"It would be good if you learn to eat with us." Optimus stated and teared one deer leg and layed again down. "Iris, come try."

"Over my dead body." I warned, he made me demanding face. I whined and let him grab me with his tail and put me to stood in front of him. "Okay.. how?"

"We don't eat it raw of course." Bulkhead said with chuckle. He burned his piece with fire inside his mouth, Miko looked in awe.

Optimus did same and tore a part of it, then dropped it on my hands. I made really face to him.

"Try." He reassured and took bite of his own. I sighed in defense, carefully exploring it. I nervously and hesitantly put it closer and smelled.

"Mm, not bad." Jack said, he already ate one.

I groaned and took bite. Optimus watched my every reaction while he ate, making me feel kind of uncomfortable. I chewed it carefully and tasted the flavour. I swallowed, and looked it again.

".. Okay not bad." I said and took another one. Optimus chuckled and kept eating his piece. Until mine ended and he gave me another one.

"Okay-" Miko stood up with grin.

"What today, apart from hunting?"

"Don't even try."
