'Bots~

Optimus Prime

Your POV

Whoa!

You blink, trying to take this all in.

"For your safety, I must ask you come with me." His pure sapphire eyes are level with your's as the one and only leader of the Autobots speaks with you.

No, no, no. Wait. Back up--(*reverse noise sounds*)--no, more--almost--and--stop! Okay, here we are.

"Optimus!" You had cried, watching the leader leak energon from where he was on the battlefield. It wasn't that much, like dying much, but it gave your inner fangirl a run for her money. So, quite stupidly, as the 'Cons retreated with some strange relic, you had dashed out to the Prime.

Except it wasn't stupid at all.

Because it had gotten you here.

Here, where the leader of the Autobots knew you existed.

Here, where the leader of the Autobots knew that you knew he existed.

Here, where the leader of the Autobots knew you existed and that he knew you knew he existed, which brings us to the beginning, where he says those words.

Words you thought you'd never hear.

"Miss. . ." He tries getting your attention since you're stuck in your own head, but realizes he doesn't know your name. You blink at the newly bandaged leader and stumble, "O-oh, it's Y/N. And sure, I'll come with you. . . I mean that's required now because of all this anyway." You try playing it cool.

"I will see to it personally no harm will come to you. There are other humans like you at our base. But you must keep this all a secret." You nod, almost shaking with excitement. Optimus nods and gives a small smile before transforming and opening his door. "Get in," he says, and you let out a squeal of fangirl excitement as you climb in. The seatbelt fastens around you and the door shuts.

"Shouldn't she ride with me, Optimus? After all you need to take it easy after all that--"

"Ratchet, I am fine." Optimus responds, and you can't stop grinning. You were riding inside Optimus Prime! You couldn't believe it was really happening. It was nice in here, too, other than it being that it was literally Optimus Prime.

You were really glad you didn't have to ride with Doc Grump.

Optimus's POV

I tilt my mirror slightly to get a better look at Y/N. She is pretty and seems very happy. I am glad, I would not have liked to take her unwillingly, but this is for her safety and the good for our kind as well. I do not believe Y/N would ever tell anyone this, and she would even make a nice addition to team Prime. After all, I don't have a human partner like Bulkhead, Bumblebee, and Arcee. . .

Ratchet

Your POV

"Another human?"

The snort of the medic dampens you slightly, as you do have a large crush on him, but then you realize Ratchet being well, Ratchet, was one of the reasons you loved him.

"My name is Y/N," You introduce yourself instead.

"Bulkhead," the green mech nods. "It's nice to meet you." You smile.

"Ratchet." He replies shortly.

"And I'm Miko!!!" Miko tumbles out of Bulkhead. "Hey, it's you! From school! I've seen you around, even though you're older than me!" She grins.

"Yeah, me too." You smile back.

Ratchet sighs and transformers, along with Bulkhead (without the annoyed Ratchet sigh, of course).

"I suppose you'll have to ride with me." He says, and opens his door.

You giggle quietly in excitement and get in as the seatbelt fastens around you and the door closes. "I request a groundbridge." Ratchet's voice is answered by Raf's: "On it!"

The groundbridge portal opens and you're taken inside it.

But you still can't believe it's happening.

Ratchet's POV

I open my door once inside the base, letting the human femme out of the car. She is quieter than Miko, but I suppose every human being is quieter than her. She didn't, what humans call "heave", on my floor mats either.

"I hope you're tolerable." I grumble, walking to the medical bay.

Bumblebee

Your POV

You gasp as the wall of the museum tumbles down, trapping you inside. The field trip at school had gone to the dogs--or many mechanical animals, really--as a wolf, dino, and moose you knew as Steeljaw, Underbite, and Thunderhoof found energon sources in one of the displays. Your class had evacuated, but guess who was in the bathroom at that time? And guess who everyone forgot when they were busy saving their own skin?

Yep! You!

You see no way out, so you take cover as best you can.

And accept your fate.

Kidding!

If you're optimistic, you think you'll live. If you're not, well, I suppose you'd rather die than meet your crush. . .

No? Then without further ado. . .

"There's someone behind here!" You hear Bee's voice as the rock is torn away to see your widened E/C eyes.

". . . Uh. . ." He states awkwardly, but before he has time to say anything, he grabs me and runs out as the rest of the building collapses. Your heart races as he tells you to get in your alt-mode and drive off.

"That was close." You breathe.

Bumblebee's POV

"So. . . since clearly you know about. . ." I start.

Why am I so tongue-tied?

"My name is Y/N." She smiles. "It's nice to meet you--" she breaks off, as if not sure how to end the sentence.

"Uh, Bee. Bumblebee."

"Okay. Nice to meet you, Bee."

Smokescreen

Your POV

You sigh, shaking your head. "I should've known he'd be a no show." Every afternoon for a week you came here since Smokescreen said he came out here when he got the chance. You made excuses in your head that he was just busy, but you were finally ready to accept that he was a no show. Just as you were about to turn around and sigh, kicking yourself for wasting your best outfit and spending two hours getting ready (1 ½ of which was you watching YouTube), you hear a familiar engine rumble.

Turning around, you see Smokescreen transform and call, "Hey! Y/N!"

"O-Oh! Smokescreen!" You break into a relieved smile.

"Hey, I wish I could've comr earlier. . . But Ratchet is kinda on my case." He rubs the back of his neck awkwardly. You study him and noticed he was pristine and freshly waxed. Good thing it's getting darker, hopefully he won't notice I'm blushing. "I get it." You laugh. "How have you been?"

"Good. . . You?" You nod, "Fine."

"You wanna. . . Go for a ride?" He asks hesitantly, before transforming. Your eyes light up, "I'd love to!" You get it, and he speeds off.

Smokescreen's POV

I adjust my mirror to look at Y/N. She's beautiful. I think, then shake off my thoughts. So what? I mean, you shouldn't. . . That shouldn't be. . . I watch her smile and enjoy the time we spend together, racing into the stars.

Sideswipe

Your POV

"Y/N!" You hear a familiar voice, and turn to see the fast red car transform.

"Sideswipe!" You grin, staring up at the big mech. "How are you?"

"Great! Here, get on." He extends his servo, and you walk on carefully. Sideswipe lifts you up too fast, and you fall on your aft in his servo.

"Sorry," he gives you that insecure grin that makes your heart flutter in fangirl.

"It's fine." You smile and stand up.

He looks you in the eye, then starts studying you. He asks you about your human life, which you tell him. He tells you about his training and life on the Bee Team before looking you in the eyes and asking,

"Wanna race around?"

Even if, for whatever reason, you didn't want to, there was no way you could say "no" to the way his ocean blue eyes went wide when he asked you.

"Of course!"

Sideswipe's POV

I race around quickly, doing some loops and other tricks, hoping to impress my human femme. I blush, had I really just thought that? I adjust my mirror to get a better glance at her, she is beautiful and carefree, and loves racing around. What's not to like?

Cons~

Megatron

Your POV

"Don't kill me, Lord Megatron! I live to serve." You drop low on one knee.

This catches the Decepticon warlord by surprise.

Flashback twenty minutes ago, you were found and taken prisoner by the Deceptions.

"Please, my liege. It has always been my dream to serve you. I am sure someone as intelligent self has thought of the advantages of having a human on your side."

Indeed, he had not, but Megatron clears his throat. "Of course."

"I can work as a spy in the Autobot base and bring you any and all information you desire. I know the Autobot pets well, and will easily be trusted. I am also a formidable fighter and know how to take care of myself. While here on the Nemesis, I will be of no trouble." You stand up.

"Very well fleshie. . . What did you say your name was?"

"Y/N, Lord Megatron." You rise and look up at him in the eyes.

"Then, Y/N, you are dismissed. Y/N is to be treated as a soldier, not a prisoner. Is that understood?" Everyone replies out of respect for the feared leader, and when he glanced at you again, you almost swore you saw pride in his gaze.

Megatron's POV

"I can't believe Megatron let a fleshbag onto the Nemesis." Starscream hisses. "And to be treated as a soldier!"

"Maybe the human factor isn't so bad, Starscream." Knockout replies carefully (Narrator: He's thinking of Y/N in his scenarios).

I walk into my berthroom, and their voices drain out. Let them talk. Soundwave will catch anything that's worth my time. I can't help thinking of Y/N. Sure, she was a human femme fleshie, but I'm sure she'll have her uses. And if ever need be, I can dispense of her, the way I do with anything that bores or betrays me.

Starscream

Your POV

It had been two weeks since you had last caught sight of your alien crush and were giving up hope you would ever see him again. Plus, he probably would hate you, anyway.

This was one of those times you were thankful you were wrong.

"Starscream, do this. Starscream, do that. You came back empty-handed on a near impossible mission that my lazy aft couldn't take care of?! Well you're a terrible seeker, Starscream." It takes you a moment to realize he's mocking Megatron. His tone is clearly upset.

You glance around, and follow the noise. It appeared to be coming from a cave of sorts.

That was when he emerged. He gives a scream and you both jump, startled.

"A fleshbag all the way out here!? What are you doing, femme?"

". . . I, I. . . My name is Y/N."

"That wasn't the question."

"You asked two, technically." You point out.

He sighs in frustration. "That isn't the point."

". . . You sounded upset. You okay?"

He glanced at you. "It's none of your concern."

"Could you at least tell me your name?"

"Shouldn't your earthly franchise have taught you that?"

"Fine. I know your name, Starscream. I was just trying to keep it cool."

"What am I supposed to do now that you know this is all real?" He asks in annoyance.

"Isn't it obvious?"

"Terminate you?" He answers, at the same time you reply, "Hang out!"

"What?" You say together.

Then you laugh.

And so does he.

". . . You won't really terminate me though. . . Right?"

Starscream's POV

"No, I suppose not." I admit. "Offlining you isn't necessary."

"Great!" She seems relieved.

"What was your suggestion again?" I ask casually, carefully.

"To hang out. And not like, hang out as in hang me from a tree until I die, the human term means to get to know each other. . . To be allies, friends, you know. . ."

"Well," I decide. "That Is what we will do." 

Knockout

Your POV

"What an excellent finish if I do say so myself." You hear the sleek Aston Martin remark. Everyone had cleared out, it was just you and the car. You walk over, dying to see the driver. If the driver was as nice looking as the car, then hot dang--

You slip over and peer into the crack of the window. Then gasp realizing there's no driver.

"Tsk tsk, you're doing to regret you did that, doll."

Before you can even ask why, Knockout transforms and scoops you up. "I'm going to have to take you hostage, darling." He strokes the top of your hair with his other claw-servo. He cocks his head, studying you with those red eyes that are beautiful and terrifying for a moment before transforming around you and buckling inside.

"I value my interior just as much as my exterior, so don't ruin it." He warns. "Soundwave, I request a groundbridge." No response. "Soundwave? Ugh, comms down."

"Why do you need to take me hostage?" You ask with a groan.

"Well if you hadn't poked around, you wouldn't have found out my secret." Knockout points out.

"That you're a Decepticon fighting against the Autobots in the war that literally never ends? And you're an alien robot from another planet called Cybertron?"

"That. . . I was not expecting that." Knockout replies. "I forget that people are making money off of our war through what you fleshies call a 'franchise'." He spits.

". . . Sooo. . . I'm Y/N. . ."

". . . Knockout. But I'm sure you already knew that too."

"Nah, I've never really heard of you." You decide to mess with him.

Knockout's POV

"O-Oh." I try not to sound too wounded by the remark of this human femme. I adjust my mirror so I can get a better look at her. For a human femme, she's not that bad. I'm just glad she's respecting the beauty of my interior and exterior. "Well, I'll have you know I'm the Chief Medical Officer of the Decepticons, which makes me very important. I also got awarded finish of the year award aboard the Nemesis."

She giggles. "You made that last part up."

"Maybe." I request another groundbridge.

"So you've really not heard of me?"

". . . I was just teasing." She smiles. "I've seen and heard about you."

"Like a lot or. . ?" She giggles, and our groundbridge opens. "Well, we'll finish this later. First I have to explain myself to the Big M."

Breakdown

Your POV

"What's a fleshie like you doing here?" Breakdown reaches for you, but you dodge in between rocks. "Wait! Aren't you the one I saw before?"

"Uh. . . Yes," You reply awkwardly.

"I must take you to Lord Megatron. I cannot let a fleshie such as you escape!"

"Well, does Lord Megatron know about me?" You pause for a moment. "We can keep this our little secret! I'm shook I got to meet you, and I would never tell anyone. Okay? Okay. I'm Y/N by the way!" You manage before you make a run for it.

Breakdown's POV

I am entirely, "shook", as the femme says, for this to have happened as well. I'm left dumbfounded and blushing as the small yet pretty femme dashes away.

Later. . .

Breakdown walks into the medical bay, where Knockout is talking with his new project: a human femme.

"Knockout, you'll never believe what happ--what in the pits of Kaon!?"

(How'd ya like? I'm starting a new Transformers book I'll post soon and I'm super excited! Love you❤)
