The group all begin their short journey across the bridge a while later, with Noah and (Y/N) both tucked securely in Mirage. While the young man sat in the passenger seat of the robot, (Y/N) sat in the drivers seat, arms folded across her chest while she listened to her friend talk to the radio of the car.

"So y'all are robots that transform into cars, even though you're from way out in space.." he rambled quite quickly towards the bot, not once taking his eyes off the stereo. "But now there's this key that opens a portal back to your home, oh and you know this.." his tone changes sarcastically while he looks to the sky.

"Because there's a beacon light in the sky, that we can't see because we're human?" He finishes a little out of breath, and (Y/N) feels herself chuckles as she watches him try to piece together what they had gotten themselves in to.

She looks down and watches as the small 'Autobots' symbol flashes on the screen and pulses with every word.

"You say that like it's weird." Genuine confusion spills from his tone of voice, and (Y/N) makes a sour faces and uncrosses her arms before leaning in. "It's super weird."

"You know what's weird?" Mirage cuts in, and the two friends feel themselves groan at his next sentence. "Marky Mark is leaving the funky bunch, I heard he's just gonna pursue acting now, that's crazy!"

Noah leans his head back in his seat with confusion and slight annoyance, while (Y/N)'s expression just held annoyance all together. "You are so annoying." She sighs. Mirage goes quite for a second, and just as she leaned in to apologize, the radio crackles to life.

"You know you love me."

(Y/N) clicks her tongue, and with a roll of her eyes she faces away to watch the passing cars blur together in a mesh of neon lights and loud music.

Noah, however, sighs at the two before speaking up again. "We're just tryna collect this money and get your angry ass boss off of earth before he blows a gasket."

"Don't take it personally." Mirage says lightly, his teasing tone long gone while he converses with Noah. "He just..misses home, and I think he blames himself for us getting stuck here."

(Y/N) listens to him talk with a frown and watches as they pass the leader of the group, his polished red and blue paint an eye catcher to anyone looking. "Earth was supposed to be a pit stop, you know, a place for us to regroup and rejoin the war back home.

Prime feels like it's his fault we've been stranded here like, he has to fix it all on his own." The two glance at eachother silently, a little put down by the information.

(Y/N) reaches up and grips the steering wheel tightly before running the pad of her thumb across the symbol in the center. She frowns however when she feels it move around, and Mirage nervously chuckles. "Maybe wanna stop with the touchy touchy?" He suggests, "That's a sensitive part."

Immediately, she lets go of the wheel and looks away with burning cheeks. "Stop being so weird!" She hisses, to which both Noah and the robot howl with laughter.

They put it aside though when the symbol on the dash turns pink, and Arcee's voice pokes through. "All right team heads up, there's security up ahead."

"Ooo, nice! This is gonna be fun man." Quickly (Y/N) shakes her head and looks down at the radio. "No,no,no,no, man you need to switch it up." She says quickly, giving no room for discussion. "You need to turn into a helicopter or a-a speedboat or something."

Mirage's laugh makes her raise a brow. "Pretty and funny? What else are you hiding?" He flirts once again, but quickly pulls away when she slams her palm against the steering wheel in annoyance. "Ouch! Okay, okay, I've got something waaayyy better than that."

...

A few minutes later, and their all driving up to the gate of the museum. Mirage had since then opted for a garbage truck to blend in, both (Y/N) and Noah being very grateful for the choice of ride.

(Y/N) turns and greets the security with a tight lipped smile and a wave, with Noah crouched in the passenger seat. The guard nods to her and opens the gate before watching them drive in and continue further on. "..good call."

What the three failed to notice, was three red objects spiraling towards the city, before landing in the harbor and continuing towards their destination.

...

Mirage pulls up into an empty parking space, and Noah and (Y/N) gently climb out. They shut the door before carefully making their way across the lawn.

(Y/N) turns around and cups one of her hands by the side of her mouth. "Sit tight!" She yells softly. "We'll be right back! Okay?" The only indication that he heard her was the sound of his engine revving. She smiled and nodded before turning around and catching up with her friend.

...

The two cross along the pathway leading to the front of the museum and look up when a pulsing hum fills the air. They look up to the lights, and watch as they all pulse quickly before bursting, and covering them in darkness.

"Totally nothing to worry about.." (Y/N) mumbles, and pulls her friend to the front doors before opening them and rushing inside, a little creeped out at the situation at hand.

...

(Y/N) gently opens the door to a large lab and jumps a little when she sees another person, a women, standing there. The women yells when she sees her and fumbles to the floor loudly.

"Are you okay?" Noah asks quickly from beside his friend, and watches as the women continues to yell while trying to push herself back up to her feet. "Are you oka-?"

She let's out a yell and stands straight, eyeing the two intruders with wide, panicked eyes. "We didn't think anyone was in here." (Y/N) tries to calmly say with her arms open, and elbows Noah to do the same. "O-Oh yeah, yeah." He stammers, and looks down at the object she was holding.

(Y/N) notices it to, and her whole body goes stiff. "That's it.." she mumbles softly before taking a step forward. The stranger takes one back and eyes her up and down before doing the same to Noah. "Who are you? Hm?" She hums, and together the friends both try to explain their reason for being there.

"We're..uh..the janitor." (Y/N) looks back at her friends excuse and gives him a look, to which he could only shrug his shoulders with wide eyes.

They look back at the lady, and she immediately looks up and raises her voice. "Security!" She yells out in a panic, and begins to run to the other end of the large lab tables.

"Hey!" (Y/N) calls out but dosnet make a move as she watches blankly as her friend goes to chase the women, all the while she stood by the only exit with her arms folded while leaning against a side table.

"No, no, no, no! You don't have to do that, it's not what it looks like!" Noah yells to the women, and she only scoffs. "I-It looks like you're trying to steal museum property.." she says, a little frightened.

Noah glances back at his friend, but she only shrugs. "Okay it is a little what it looks like." He leans forward, but the two begin to scurry around the tables, their shoes squeezing a giant the ground.

"Okay, stop! Stop! Let me explain!" Finally the stop at the far end of the lab, and the women holds the Transwarp key infront of her to act as a weapon.

"It belongs to.." Noah tries to say but stops when he catches his breath. (Y/N) makes her way to his side and clears her throat. "These giant robots..from space.." she finishes, and they both watch as her face immediately deadpans at the two. "..really"

Noah shakes his head and moves forward. "Okay, look we really need-" he stumbles back when the women punches him in the cheek and send him fumbling to the right. (Y/N) hisses and cringes as she watches but decided to take a step back, not exactly in the middle for being punched either.

"Damn!" She yells out, before all three of them look up as a bright light shines into their eyes. A security guard marches in and shines his torch in all of their directions. "Hey hey, what's going on here?!" He yells, and the women clicks her tongue at him.

"Man, it's about a time you showed up!"

A 'boom' from outside catches their attention before they all look up at a red flash being set off near them. The building suddenly breaks off as an explosion goes off, and all three of them are blown backwards against the floor, minus the guard who unfortunately got caught in the cross fire.

(Y/N) hits the back of her against the floor with a chocked gasp. Her chest heaves before she leans over and coughs. A loud ringing fills her ears before she's pulled into her feet by none other than Noah Diaz. "Are you okay?" He quickly asks, scanning his friends face for any injuries.

He all but receives a pained laugh and a pat on the chest. "Yeah, you?" He nods, and they both straighten up and look around shakily. They move forward, leaning against eachother for support, before moving towards the large hole in the wall.

The women form before also stares outside, the key in hand before she feels her eyes widen at what was infront of her. Three, large robots loomed over the grassy area they stood on.

They were intimidating, of course, with the exception of the sharp eyes and maniac like stare in their optics that made both Noah and (Y/N) take a step back.

"You were telling the truth.." she mumbles, and (Y/N) shakes her head. "Yeah..but those ones aren't with us." They all watch incredulously as the one in the middle opens up two small compartments in its back. Two oddly shaped, metal creatures crawl from the hatches and rest against his shoulder with their heads clicking and turning every few seconds.

The bot mumbles something to each of them, and before long their crawling off his back and making a mad dash for the museum.

The trio all stay silent for a few more seconds before the women shoves the key into (Y/N)'s hands and bolts for the exit. "It's yours." She says quickly, and leaves the two to stare at eachother with shocked faces.

(Y/N) quickly takes the lead and runs ahead, Noah behind her while they catch up to her and follow her to the exit. Another blast goes off and they stumble a bit while glass shards flew into their faces, but they kept running.

A few more are fired before they stop all together, and the three take the opportunity to dash down towards the hallway.

...

They all duck behind a door and peak through the small glass window, and watch as the two thin machines sniff and crawl around the damaged room.

"What the hell those things..?" Noah whispers, neither him nor (Y/N) having noticed the women begin to run down the stairwell. "Are you okay-?" Their cut off when the catch her, and they both run ahead and follow her.

"Hey, stop following me!" She yells to the two of them, and Noah only denies. "We're not following you!" He yells, and (Y/N) agrees. "We're just escaping in the same direction!"

Their voices are rushed and panted while they run down the red light stairs, sometimes shoving into eachother while other times they hoped and skipped three to four steps at a time to move faster.

They all push through the doors and both friends watch the lady spring down and hide behind one of the large pillars beside a hanging dinosaur skeleton.

They look up when one of the creatures bursts through the door immediately, and clicks it's teeth while it looks around for them. It's legs and claws scrape against the ground while it moves, and uneasy sound that brought a shiver to (Y/N)'s spine.

Both friends crouch behind a display case and flinch when another explosion goes off from outside, laminating the room and allowing them to catch a glimpse of one of the monsters crawling up the dinosaurs skeleton and causing them to panic a little bit.

Noah looks forward and grips (Y/N)'s hand when he sees an 'Exit' sigh just straight ahead. Immediately he pulls her up and dashes for it, but stops when she yanks him back and stares forward with wide and panicked eyes.

The women they met still stood with her back firmly pressed to the pillar, but dosnet notice as one of the creatures scurries along the wall, just a few feet behind her and closing that gap with every inch it crawled.

Another explosion goes off and her attention is elsewhere. (Y/N) grits her teeth, and her and Noah quickly tiptoe to the edge of the display separating them from her. They wave their arms to catch her attention, but that doesn't work and soon makes them resorts to hissing at her and tapping the display quickly.

That dosnet work either, and they both watched with hitched breaths when the creature from above slowly kneels down and stares at the women, but she dosnet notice it.

She begins to whisper a song to herself and move forward with slow steps. Only making it about halfway to the next pillar, she slowly turns her shaking head around and yells when the other creature, now hiked on its hind feet, screeches as it runs towards her.

It falls to the side when Noah slams a small statuette against its head and sends it to the ground with a loud thud.

Not daring to waist a second (Y/N) shoves the two forward and trails after them, allowing them to run ahead while she ran behind them.

"Run!" She yells, and they all barrel down the last few flights of stairs. The creatures screech when they jump on opposite sides of the staircase and leap for (Y/N), but she ducks at the last minute and scoffs when they ran into eachother and crash into the floor.

They rush through the small doors and shut it behind them. Noah and her grunt as they try to keep it closed when the monsters ran into it over, and over again while the women goes to get something to tie them closed.

The glass begins to crack, but she rushes back and ties both handles of the doors closed, and they let go with grateful nods before rushing towards the exit when the creature slammed a giant the glass again.

...

"Move, come on!" She shoves Noah forward and together, they all quickly exit the museum, but what laid ahead made them want to rush back inside as quickly ass possible.

The robots all fired at one another, with Bumblebee next to the friends while another one scans (Y/N)'s face before locking its optics with the key in her grasp.

The (H/C) women looks back when she sees Mirage barreling towards her, but gasps when he gets snatched by one of the Terracons. She takes a step forward and stares nervously as the bot gets pulled hire and hire into the air, and yells out for the other to put him down.

(Y/N) pulls both Noah and the women back when the Terracon dives down and slams Mirage into a small barrier of the garden, and groans when he lies in his back. Tilting his head he locks his blue optics with a worried (Y/N) and chuckles at her expression.

"What?" He teases, "You missed me that bad?" The worry quickly leaves her at his comment before she scoffs down at him and sighs. Mirage chuckles and gets up, but before he could say (yet again) another terrible pick up line, the sound of glass breaking catches their attention.

"You guys gotta go!" He says quickly and dashes behind them to shoot at the two creatures. (Y/N) spares him just a second more before she shook her head and they all made a dash through the garden.

Noah grips (Y/N)'s arm and shoves her to the ground when a round of blasts are sent their way. "Get down! Get down!" He calls to the women, and she ducks with them without complaint. Arcee hops atop the structure they were hiding behind and raises her canons to fire and the Terracon.

"Go! Get out of here!" She orders towards tue trio, and yells when she's knocked to the ground but gets up and fires shot after shot into the air.

The group make it to the parking lot, but (Y/N) grinds to a halt when she sees a purple object falling form the sky. It lands into the concrete, and her eyes widen before she tackles both Noah and the women to the ground.

"Down!" She yells, and their all sent flying again when the bomb goes off and a blue shockwave ripples through the air.

Getting up slowly, (Y/N) looks down at the two who still laid on their backs. She helped them up slowly, but gets infront of them when the purple Terracon that fired the bomb landed infront of them.

"Aw, don't be frightened humans." She cooed towards them with vile lacing her tongue. "This will all be over soon." She bends down and picks the key up before taking off gains and flying to her leader.

(Y/N) curses under her breath before she looks over at the Autobots, but she watches with wide eyes when Bumblebee's lifeless body is clutched in the leaders grip. His symbol is ripped from his head before he's thrown right infront of Prime, who lay defenseless beneath one of the statues crushing his body.

A screech form above causes them all to look up, when a giant eagle like machine swoops down and fires a shot right infront of the Terracons.

Noah pulls (Y/N) away as this happens, but she couldn't take her eyes off the smallest of the group, the one who didn't have a voice but was understood through his broken radio. The yellow robot with black stripes that lay dead just infront of her, with his lifeless optics staring straight into her own.

The trio all watch as the bird creates a line of fire across the ground, separating the Terracons from the rest of the bots. The purple one seems to have wanted to start another round, but her leader shakes his head smugly and turns away.

Prime slowly begins to rise from his position as the rest of his group all gather around, and stare down in both sadness and disbelief as one of their friends, comrades, one of their family, was gone from this world forever.

They don't dwell on it to long when the same falcon from before gentky lands infront of them, much larger than the humans but smaller than both Prime and Mirage. "We must go now!" She yells, "Come with me."

Noah and (Y/N) exchange a glance, before they both turn towards the women who wasnet even supposed to get tangled up in all this.

Mirage glances down at the (H/C) women, and frowns at her distraught face still strained on Bee's body. He clears his throat and bends down before nudging her with his index finger.

(Y/N) hums and turns around, and Mirage can't help but smile when she tilts her head at him curiously. "You need a ride?"
