Nahko's POV

So not a lot has happened since I got back. Jazz is back on his feet, but Ratchet still hasn't given him the all clear to return to the field. Bulkhead is also on his feet, but he can't move far or anywhere fast yet. Miko has been helping him with his exercises. Miko and I had our birthday.

I got the best gift ever from Ratchet. It's a holo-disguise in a necklace. I wear it and look like a young tall human woman. Also Jazz has a new vehicle mode, so that I can ride with him again inside and not out. Thank Primus for that.

So what do I look like now in my new disguise? I still have the same skin tone, hair colour I had in my old human body. Just taller, and an adult body. I wear blue hoodie, with grey shirt underneath, black shorts, blue gloves and shoes. My hair is in a ponytail. Ratchet said with some tinkering I could alter my look. Like what clothes I'm wearing, my skin tone and hair colour. But I love the look he's given me and I wouldn't change a thing.

Anyway, Bulkhead is doing his exercises now with Miko. While I am with Raf and Jack taking away photos of any cybertronian online. And replacing them with something else. Jazz and Bee are watching us. Jazz gripping the railing for support. "Removing Bumblebee and replacing him with" Raf says. Placing a tap dancing monkey in his place.

"The tap-dancing monkey strikes again" Jack says high fiving Raf.

"Bumblebee sightings on the world wide web are no laughing matter" Ratchet tells them.

"But Jazz's is" I chuckle as I remove his photo. Replacing him with a gif of cat playing chopsticks with chopsticks. He laughs.

"Why can't I just drive from now on?" Bulkhead asks.

"Because your legs will atrophy if you choose not to use them" Ratchet tells him. "Jazz it down" he orders. Jazz rolls his optics, but does so.

"Do you want some energon?" I ask him.

"I'm fine gorgeous" he assures me.

"Wait, what's that?" Jack asks and I look back at the computer screens. It looks like a meteorite or something. But it doesn't look like rock.

"Raf, enhance the image" I tell him.

"Sure thing Nahko" he says and zooms in. As the image sharpens, we see some sort of metal pod. "A Cybertronian escape pod?" he asks.

"Looks like it, Optimus!" I call and he comes over.

"Here in Earth's atmosphere?" Ratchet asks. Raf sends the image to the main computer screen.

"Autobot or decepticon?" Arcee asks.

"Impossible to tell, given the image resolution" Ratchet tells her.

"In any event, this merits investigation" Optimus states.

"Could be a trap, and we're down two bots" Arcee states.

"I can fight" Jazz protests.

"Not without my say so" Ratchet tells him.

"Should we reach out to Wheeljack?" Arcee asks.

"We can hear you" Bulkhead grumbles.

"I don't care if Bulkhead and Jazz aren't combat-ready. After that revenge stunt he pulled with Miko, Wheeljack can stay rogue" Ratchet states.

"You and we all know it isn't just Wheeljack at fault there" I remind him.

"Hey" Miko whines.

"An Autobot may be in distress. Ratchet, bring your medical kit" Optimus orders. "Nahko remain here with Bulkhead and Jazz. Man the bridge" he tells me.

"On it" I tell him and head over to it as Ratchet activated the bridge. They go through and I close it. "So who wants to bet if it's a con or bot?" I ask the others.

"A prime shouldn't bet" Prima tells me. I ignore him.

"I bet bot" Jazz tells me.

"More like you wish it is" Bulkhead states getting to his feet. "I'm getting an energon cube" he grumbles and shuffles from the room. Using the wall for support.

"I think I will get one too. Do you want one gorgeous?" Jazz asks me. I nod and he follows Bulkhead.

"Nahko, activate the ground bridge" Optimus instructs.

"Sure thing" I say and send him one. He and the others return with a new bot. I close the bridge behind them. "So it was a new bot" I state.

"Why hello gorgeous, what do they call you?" he asks smiling at me.

"Tell him you're a prime" Alpha Trion tells me. I could detect a hint of mischief in his tone.

"Nahko Prime" I tell him and he stumbles back shocked. I laugh with Arcee and Bee. "Though everyone calls me Nahko" I add.

"Nahko story is a long one, but she was choosen to be a Prime and is still learning" Optimus tells him.

"You got a name?" I ask the new guy.

"Smokescreen maam" he says standing to attention. Miko laughs.

"Lose the maam, unless you want to get hurt" I tell him annoyed.

"We haven't had somebody new here since Wheeljack. What's your story, Smoke? Where'd you come from? How'd you get here? How many blasters you packin'?" Miko asks him. Typical Miko.

"So, these are the life-force we're supposed to protect? - Are they all like this?" Smokescreen asks.

"Fortunately not" Ratchet tells him.

"Becareful what you say" I tell them. "She's my twin sister and I won't have any of you picking on her" I state.

"Wait, twin sister?" Smokescreen asks shocked.

"Like Optimus said, her story is long. She is a techno organic" Arcee tells him.

"You'll hear my story some time. But I am more interested in how you arrived on Earth" I state.

"I too share Miko's and Nahko's fascination with how you came to arrive on Earth" Ratchet states.

"In a Decepticon escape pod"  Arcee adds.

"Still got trust issues, huh?" Smokescreen asks her and I cross my arms as we remain silent. "Tough crowd" he mumbles. "The main thrust of combat operations was at least 20 clicks from the Hall of Records, so things had been pretty quiet. But the situation went downhill fast. The Cons launched a massive surge that wiped out the last line of defenses surrounding Iacon. I was the only thing left to them back, and, let me tell you, I was pumped" he explains.

"I mean, this was my chance to see real action for the first time to prove myself. Until everything went black. Cons took me prisoner and dumped me onto a transport ship. But I managed to give a guard the slip and hopped in an escape pod. Apparently, it was a long-distance pod, 'cause it knocked me into stasis. Next thing I knew, I'm hitting solid ground hard" he states.

"The Decepticon warship must have picked up pod's beacon and guided it to Earth" Ratcthet states.

"Which would explain Smokescreen's welcoming committee" Arcee adds.

"Cons?" I ask her and she nods her head.

"Bet those Cons were disappointed not to find one of their own inside" she says with a smirk.

"Smokescreen, do you know of Alpha Trion's fate, after the fall of Iacon?" Optimus asks him.

"I wish I did. But that was the last I ever saw of him" Smokescreen tells him.

"You knew this guy?" I ask Alpha Trion in my head.

"He was my guard at the Iacon hall or records" Alpha Trion states. "You can trust him" he assures me. I relax, if Alpha Trion and Optimus trust him. So do I.

"That's it my life story. Not exactly the glory I envisioned for myself until now. Being here with Optimus Prime I knew I was destined for great things. I mean, now that you have help, how hard could it be to end this war?" Smokescreen asks.

"I thought I heard you rookie" Jazz states as he appears with Bulkhead.

"Lieutenant Jazz, sir" Smokescreen says saluting him.

"At ease soldier" he says as he hands me an energon cube. I nod my head in thanks.

"Take a good look, Newbie. This is how hard" Bulkhead tells Smokescreen annoyed.

"Smokescreen, I would suggest that you take some time to become acclimated to your new surroundings. A tour of the base would be an excellent start" Optimus tells him.

"Sure thing" Miko says excitedly. Then notices Bulkhead's sad face. "I mean Nahko here offers a very informative tour" she adds.

"I have training, Jack you do it" I tell him.

"Ah sure thing" he says. "This way" he tells Smokescreen and they leave the room.

"You know Smokescreen?" I ask Jazz.

"Helped train him" Jazz states with a shrug. "Thought he was dead" he adds. "What do you think of him?" he asks me.

"He flirted with me" I say rolling my eyes. "Though it was entertaining seeing him freak out when I told him my name" I add smirking. Jazz chuckles. He then gets a check up from Ratchet, who finally gives him the all clear to return to battle. But advises him to take it slow.

(Time skip)

So on the website we were browsing earlier. We learnt that red energon had been uncovered. Optimus, Arcee, Bee and Jazz went to retrieve it. While Raf remove the photo from online. Replacing it with something else. Smokescreen wanted to go, but Optimus refused to let him go. Saying he needed more training and that he also needs to get a vehicle mode.

I told Jazz to becareful. "I always am gorgeous" he assures me before leaving.

"You let him talk to you like that maam?" Smokescreen asks.

"Enough with the maam" I snap. "Jazz is my guardian and it's how he talks. I am not gonna have him change, none of us will. Now it's just Nahko, no maam or Miss Prime. Just Nahko" I tell him.

"Right, sorry" he mumbles. "How do I get a vehicle mode?" he asks me.

"You scan one" I state. "Jack can go with you to pick one out" I add. Jack sighs and leaves with Smokescreen.

"Let me guess, you don't like Smokescreen?" Miko asks as I join her and Bulkhead.

"I hate how he calls me Maam, do I look like a maam to you?" I ask her. She giggles. "It's not funny" I tell her. "Besides, he is probably centuries older then me" I state crossing my arms.

"Maybe physically, but I'd so your more mature mentally" Ratchet tells me. I just roll my eyes. "Optimus, is something wrong?" he asks.

"Starscream has come for the Red Energon, and I fear he will not be deterred in his quest" Optimus replies. As Jack and Smokescreen return.

"Starscream? I heard stories about that stiletto-heeled creep back on Cybertron. Send me in, Doc" Smokescreen begs.

"When Optimus requires backup, he will ask for it" Ratchet tells him.

"Aw, come on" Smokescreen whines and looks at me. "I can do this maam, I got my V-mode and everything. I'm souped up and ready to roll" he states.

"Again, don't call me maam!" I snap glaring at him. "Optimus said you require further training and I trust his judgement. Also like Ratchet said, Optimus would ask if he needs back up" I state. Ratchet and I turn back to the console. "Is there no weakness in the apex armor?" I ask Ratchet.

"None, unless you can get inside it" he states. Inside it?

"Wait, could the phase shifter get through?" I ask him. He looks thoughtful.

"It could" he states.

"Then go get it from the vault, I'll mentor comms until you return" I tell him. He nods and leaves the room. "Optimus, we have an idea on how to deal with Starscream. Just hold him of as long as possible" I tell him.

"Understood Nahko" he says. After that, I couldn't reach any of them on comms.

"Scrap" I curse as Ratchet appears with Smokescreen. Who is holding the phase shifter.

"He had the same idea as you" Ratchet tells me.

"I can't reach the others on comms, Smokescreen you are to deal with Starscream and retrieve the apex armor" I tell him.

"Yes m... I mean Nahko" he says. I open the ground bridge and he transforms. I roll my eyes, of course he choose a sports car. He speed through the portal and I closed it. So the plan worked. We got the apex armor and no one died. But Starscream got away with the red energon.

"Told you I just needed to borrow it for a while. Doc here thought I was trying to steal your relics" Smokescreen mutters as he hands Ratchet back the phase shifter.

"Only until you explained your plan, which Nahko and I then sanctioned. It's called protocol" Ratchet tells him.

"Ratchet is correct. Standard procedure must be observed by every member of this team. However I believe we must also commend Smokescreen. You have proven to be a quick study by choosing to place strategy above bravado" Optimus praises. Great, he had to go give Smokescreen a big head.

"There is gonna be no living with him now" Arcee mutters.

"As long as he stops with the maam, I could live with that. Maybe" I grumble running a servo through my hair.

"While this may lack the pageantry of a proper elite guard ceremony, I wish to welcome you to team Prime" Optimus tells Smokescreen.

"The Newbie did all right" Bulkhead admits.

"You or I could have done better" Jazz tells him. Jazz had been hit hard by Starscream and hasn't got his full stamina back yet.

"Don't worry, Bulk. He's got nothing on you. Seriously, once we get that leg of yours back in shape, old Smokey's gonna learn real quick who the top wrecking ball is run here" Miko assures Bulkhead. Who just walks away.

"Give sometime Miko, he'll be fine" I assure her. "Jazz, go rest" I tell him.

"Yes, maam" he says teasingly. I grab one of Ratchet's wrenches and through it at him. He dodges it.

"Call me that again and I'll throw something bigger then a wrench" I snap. He just chuckles and leaves. "Honestly, my best friend is so annoying sometimes" I grumble. "Arcee, some training?" I ask her and she nods her head. We head to the sparing room. As we spare we share our opinions on Smokescreen, she isn't his biggest fan either. But at least she doesn't get called maam. I do hop he drops that habit quickly.
