"We're back!" Tessa's voice echoed throughout the main hall of the empty cathedral.
Bumblebee gave a little wave, while your attention didn't move from his thigh. Focusing on adjusting a couple of bolts, that the yellow scout has been complaining about for the past couple days.
"Hey." Cade greeted from the makeshift table. "I found a whole bunch of boxes of clothes. So Tessa, sweetie. You can find some long pants. Nice loose-fitting ones, and lose the short-shorts, okay? What you guys get?"
Tessa and Shane emptied their backpacks onto the table. Various fruits, long life items and random tools spilled in front of Cade.
"It's protein." Tessa simply said, placing the container in front of him.
"Look, I said the essentials, okay?"
"It wasn't easy." Tessa sighed, "we almost got caught."
Cade raised an eyebrow, as Shane placed a bottle of mouthwash onto the table. "You stole mouthwash?"
"I like to be fresh, when I'm making out with your daughter." Shane spoke with a smug smile.
Tessa chuckled, while you and Bumblebee looked away. Trying to hide your cheeky smiles, as the pair of you giggled under your breathes.
Cade's brows knitted together, reaching out for the bottle and throwing it across the table. "Yeah that's not happening. Ever!"
Tessa and Shane gave each other awkward smiles.
"A little bit late for that." Your teasing tone whispered to Bumblebee.

Walking into the main hall of the cathedral with laptop in hand. The sound of small giggles caught your attention, your movements coming to a halt as your eyes looked away from the screen. Your soft gaze falling onto Tessa and Shane whom cuddled in their little ‘love nest’ corner. Her head resting against Shane’s chest as they sprawled out on the couch, the gentle glow of the dusk sunlight bathing them in a soft colourful glow, as it streamed through the stained-glass window. Numerous candles surrounding them setting the scene just right.
A small smile tugged the corners of your lips, I’m glad they’ve found some calm before the storm.
“Ah-hem. Excuse me.” Cade’s voice echoed throughout the hall, “there’ll be no smooching in front of me. Thank you.”
Speaking of storms...
The couple broke apart, feeling Cade’s disapproval stare upon them.
“You’re so old, Dad.” Tessa complained, “who even saids ‘smooching’ anyway?”
A small prickle of envy crawled in your chest, as you hugged the laptop. Lowering your head a little, attempting to hide your suttle frown.
“It can be so difficult sometimes.” Cade sighed, while drinking a protein shake. His annoyed stare looking up at Optimus, “I’m telling ya. No respect these days.”
Optimus nodded folding his arms across his chest, “I went through something similar with Bumblebee.”
The small prickle of envy snipped your yearning heart, like a flower's thorn upon your skin. Bringing the laptop a little closer to your face, as your cheeks grew a little warm. As the ‘almost kiss’ between you and Optimus replayed in your thoughts.
“Afternoon, Y/N” the sound of Crosshairs' voice caused you to jump a little.
“Cr-Crosshairs? Sorry, you startled me.”
“Really?” you felt his green optics study you. “Something on your mind?”
“Just... running through the plans.” You spoke with a fake smile, “making sure everyone knows the drill, and what not.”
You raised an eyebrow as Crosshairs briefly turned to Drift. Glancing over his shoulder at the blue Autobot, whom gestured in your direction, then to a set of stone stairs.
“Is everything alright, Crosshairs?” your puzzled tone caught his attention.
“Yea. Yea.” he assured with a teasing smile, “just remembered that the Big Boss wants to see you.”
You tilted your head a little. Pressing the laptop harder against your chest, as your heart skipped a little.
“Optimus?...” your voice was low, trying not to sound too surprised.
“Yeah. He said it was something important, or whatever.”
Your confused gaze switched between Optimus, whom still muttered something to Cade, and back to Crosshairs who just stood beside you. Fidgeting around his pistol.
“Ok... well um... I guess I should head over to him-”
A small yelp escaped your lips as he quickly got in your way.
“No! No!” his whisper-shout came out a little louder than intended. “I-I mean...”
Crosshairs gestured you to come a little closer, as he squatted down to your level.
“Crosshairs, what’s going on?”
The Autobot sighed, as his optics fell onto your unamused and confused expression. “Look... I don’t know what the Big Boss wants to discuss with you. Honestly he was very vague about it-”
“Optimus is rarely vague about anything-”
“My thoughts exactly. So I’m assuming it’s something important but also private.”
Crosshairs attempted to hold a convincing smile, as your eyes studied his features.
“Okay...” raising an eyebrow again. Your expression matching your unsure tone, “where do you think he’d would wanna talk?”
“My best guess would be the tower behind you.”
You briefly followed his gesture, pointing at the stone stairs behind you.
Crosshairs shrugged at your silent question. Your eyes studied him one more time, before hesitantly approaching the stairs.
“Well, you almost fucked that up.”
Crosshairs glanced up at Hound, giving the Autobot daggers as he came out of hiding, once assured you were out of earshot.
“Shut up.” Crosshairs hissed, standing to his full height. “I told you, I’m not good at this mushy stuff. If you’d ask me, I think this whole plan is pathetic.”
“¬ you can’t handle the truth!¬” Bumblebee buzzed. His blue optics narrowing at his comrade.
“Autobots?”
All froze as the sound of Optimus’ voice interrupted them.
“What’s going on?”
“¬Y/N wants¬ to see you¬ outside¬ Sir.”
Optimus’ titled his head to the side, his optics giving Bumblebee a questioning gaze. “Why?”
All speechlessly shrugged. But a annoyed whirl wheezed out of Bee, rolling his blue optics at his comrades, while impatiently grabbing Optimus’ servo.
“Bumblebee? What?-”
“¬Outside!¬” Bee simply repeated. Pulling his leader towards the large arch, which lead towards one of the cathedral’s courtyards.
Optimus looked over his shoulder, giving a confused expression to the rest of the Autobots. Drift looked away, trying to hide his knowing smile. While Crosshairs and Hound simply sighed and walked away.
---
Approaching the small stone balcony, a gasp left your breath as your wide eyes fell upon the most curious of sight.
A mixture of fairy lights and string lights lit up the courtyard below. Hanging upon trees and their overhanging branches, dancing up the stone pillars which held the dome roof of a small gazebo. Delicate white lanterns lit by candlelight, was suspended above the gazebo. Their strings stretching from the balcony’s stone frame, to the nearby fence.
Roughly potted flowers lined the courtyard’s flowerbeds, matching the drooping flowers in the large stone pots upon the balcony. A small chuckle escaping you, as your eyes fell upon a bench. Clearly from inside the cathedral, but broken down to fit upon the balcony’s edge. Dressed in loosely thrown flower petals, as it rested against the iron railings of the balcony.
This is by far, better than Tessa’s love nest.
Placing a hand over your mouth, attempting to hide your shy smile. As the sight of Bumblebee dragging Optimus by his servo came to you.
The prime muttered something to the yellow scout, but Bumblebee only shook his head. Optimus’ optics tried to avoid your soft gaze, as Bee turned and went behind him. Giving the leader one final push against his back, before scuttering away.
“This is... unexpected.”
Your sweet tone caught his attention. Optimus’ shy gaze slowly left the floor and onto your blushing face.
“As it is for me.” He spoke, rubbing the back of his neck. “A thousand apologies, Y/N. This isn’t- I-I mean, it isn’t my intention-”
“It’s alright, Optimus.” you assured.
Your warm smile made his spark skip a beat. A gentle hue of warmth returning to underneath his metal plates.
“It’s makes a lovely change from seeing graffitied walls and boarded up windows.”
Optimus returned your warm smile, “indeed it does...”
You clutched onto the laptop tightly, holding it against your chest. As though it would somehow stop the rapid beating of your heart. Warmth came to your cheeks, as you shyly looked away from him.
His scanners picked up your pulsing heart and shaky breath.
Say something! His processors commanded. Anything!
“The laptop in your hands? I um... do not remember you having it before.”
Idiot!
“Um... yeah.” You begun to fiddle with it. “I found it in the station back in Texas. I’ve been going over the plans for tomorrow.”
Optimus nodded, “familiarizing oneself of the strategies and plans, is highly wise. That way you’d most certainly be prepared for anything.”
You awkwardly nodded. Your foot slowly tracing invisible circles upon the balcony floor.
I am going to whack Crosshairs with a wench next time I see him! Your thoughts scolded.
Optimus’ digits became fidgety. His servos clenching and unclenching, as he shifted his weight from one pedal to the other. Edging a little closer to the balcony which came to his chest plate.
His optics widening a little, as you prepared to turn away from him.
Please don’t leave...
“I-I would like to hear the plan.” his voice spat out.
You gazed back at him with a raised eyebrow.
Optimus cleared his throat, “please... I would appreciate if you’d ran a few details by me again.”
“Sure... of course.”
---
A sad whirl wheezed out of Bumblebee, lightly slapping the palm of his servo against his face plate. As him and Tessa moved away from the closed balcony doors.
“I agree.” She muttered, “it is painful.”
Her eyes watched as the yellow scout slouched against the bricked wall. A warm smile tugging at her lips, as Bee’s optics gazed down at his peds.
“Hey. We can still help move things along.”
Bee perked up at her cheerful tone. His hopeful gaze returning to her.
“I’m pretty sure I saw a basketball downstairs-”
“And I saw~ broken bits~ of mirror!” the Autobot buzzed.
“Perfect!”
---
“And with that, we should be straight in, straight out.”
You looked up at Optimus with a soft smile. His gentle expression smiling back, as the redness of your cheeks never faded. His optics finding difficulty to look away for your soft lips.
His spark tried to drive his body towards temptation, while his processors teased him with the ‘almost kiss’ back at the station.
“I cannot help...” Optimus spoke, requiring more focus upon his words than usual. “I cannot help but be concerned for your safety. As if anything were to happen...”
His sentence trailed off into silence, as his optics slightly widened at the sight of you reaching out to him. The cooling fans within his vents working overtime, as the Autobot tried to regulate his climbing body temperature. Your cool, soft touch sent volts of electricity through him, as your fingertips lightly brushed the back of his servo. Not knowing that you made his Spark yearn for you even more.
“You shouldn’t be worried about me. I can take care of myself.”
Your voice sounded like a sirens song, to Optimus’ audio receivers.
“Perhaps something like this would ease your mind.”
Butterflies tangled your nerves, as they fluttered in your stomach. Your heart skipping a beat, as the bazaar idea came to you. Your cheeks radiating similar warmth to Optimus, as you felt his gentle yet lingering gaze. Concentrating on each breath you took, as his optics memorized every detail of your body. How your hair subtlety moved in the cool night air, how your clothes loosely hugged your figure. Yet also leaving each curve of your hips and thighs to one’s imagination.
“Here.” you shyly spoke.
Taking off the ring upon your finger, and placing it into the palm of his servo. Optimus briefly studied the simple iron band, before returning his gaze to you. Your sweet smile making his breath get stuck in his throat.
“It’s my ‘Lucky Ring’- stupid I know. But it was the first thing I ever forged with my Dad, it’s... not perfect. But I feel like it’s brought me a lot of luck, so I was thinking... perhaps... you could have it.”
Optimus gulped, “Y/N... I-I can’t-” placing his free servo over his aching Spark.
You slowly skootched over to him, closing the gap between you.
“Please, I want you to have it.” You carefully guided his digits to enclose around the ring. The small item simply getting lost in his closed fist.
“So whenever you see it, you’d think of me. And that as long as you carry this, a part of me will always be safe with you.”
Optimus caved in to his body’s temptations. His servo leaving his chest, and quickly wrapping around your waist, gently pulling you closer.
“I do not require an item to think of you. For you are always running through my processors.”
The blush across your features spread towards your ears, your face never felt so warm. As the wires within the Autobot’s abdomen crossed and entangled themselves. His Spark’s rhythm matching your pulsing heart.
Optimus’ servo gently retracted from your waist, allowing his index digit to trace your curves before holding it out in front of you.
Your starstruck gaze trailed down from his loving optics, a breathless gap escaping your lips, as the metal plates around his wrist shifted. Thin cables slithered out like snakes, as he brought your iron ring towards them. Immediately threading themselves through the band, securing it tightly against his metal plates, only allowing the ring to dangle a little.
Placing a hand over your silent gasp, as Optimus opened his chest plates. Reveling his pulsing energy core, blue sparks zapped away from his Spark. His hopeful optics watched his core glow brightly in your eyes, his chest raising and falling, while his vents worked overtime.
This... vulnerable feeling? His processors questioned. Is this how it feels to find... a Sparkmate?
Your eyes widened as a glowing shard left his chest, it center glowed slightly dimmer than his Spark.
“This is the Great Matrix of Leadership.” Optimus explained, as the ‘S’-shape shard dance and hovered in the palm of his servo. “It’s the only thing in this universe that can revive the Spark of a Cybertronian.”
“Optimus... it’s beautiful.”
The Matrix rapidly spun in his palm, a blue flash bursting from it’s center, as it shrunk to the size of a small pendant. Optimus gently threaded thin copper wires, which braided themselves together, through the tip of The Matrix
Your heart jumped into your throat, as Optimus guided the necklace towards you.
“It is my gift to you. So a piece of me is always with you-”
“O-Optimus?-”
“It will protect you from any harm. And if should anything ever happen to me, you’d be the one to ignite my Spark. For it’s you, who makes it pulse through my wires.”
While the familiar sensation of a loving bond enveloped the pair of you. His knuckles caressed your cheek, as he gently placed The Matrix necklace around your neck.
“Y/N... believe me, this is not something I do, nor say lightly." Optimus gently admitted, "I can’t give you normality, or anything a regular human could offer. But what I can give, is everything that I am.”
A loving sigh escaped his lips, as you briefly caressed his cheek. Your hand trailing towards his neck, and your fingers tracing the back of his helm. Optimus’ chest closed again, as he placed his free servo around your waist again. Gently sweeping you off your feet, and bringing you closer to him.
"By my Spark, I would protect you. Adore you. Cherish and support anything that's important to you. If doubt ever aches your heart, I will not rest till I can do everything I can, to free you of such feeling."
He placed a gentle kiss upon your forehead, running a digit through your hair. As his optics shined with hope and love.
"And if you ever wished for a piece of the night sky. I would go to its depths, and bring you back the brightest star."

“What are you two doing?” Shaned asked raising an eyebrow. As his puzzled gaze fell upon Tessa hoisting up a mis-shaped, makeshift disco ball, while Bumblebee helped guide it. Attempting to not allow the object to knock against the broken window.
“~Kiss the girl~” the Disney song buzzed from the scout’s radio.
“Their leader has fallen for my sister.” Tessa briefly explained, “something about her being Optimus’... what did you call it, Bee?”
“A~ Sparkmate~”
“Yeah... that...”
Shane placed his hands upon his hips. A smile tugging at the corner of his lips, “and that explains the uh, disco ball, how?”
“~setting the mood~ for ~true loves kiss!-”
“What racket are you two making now?” Crosshairs sighed.
All three turned to the green Autobot, as he crouched near the landing of the stone steps.
“Her sister, your boss.” Shane briefly spoke.
Crosshairs folded his arms across his chest plates, “you two still wasting time with that nonsense? I told you, there’s no such thing as a ‘Sparkmate’-”
“~what would~ you know~ about~ Sparkmate’s?” Bee challenged, letting go of the makeshift disco ball.
“Bee!” Tessa cried, as the rope almost lifted her off the ground.
The scout quickly grabbed the mirror coated ball, saving Tessa from flying a tall height.
“It’s a interspecies relationship.” Crosshairs groaned, “such thing has never been heard of back on Cybertron.-”
“~Love~ comes in~ different shapes!-”
“Ugh, guys.” Shane’s small voice interrupted, as his surprised expression gazed out of the window. “You should take a look at this...”
---
Eyes closed and embracing one another. A satisfied hum rumbled in the back of Optimus’ throat, as his lips mimicked yours.
Your heart fluttered, as The Matrix necklace rested against your chest. Your free hand trailed down from the back of his helm, towards Optimus' chest plate. Feeling the vibrations of his Spark, as it burst like small firecrackers.
A muffled moan slipped from you, as his glossa entered your mouth. Deepening the kiss and exploring your flavour, he gently bit your bottom lip. Encouraging your tongue to enter his mouth.
The desire of wanting more knotted in Optimus' admonian, as one of his servo’s explored the curvature of your back. Reaching down towards the waistband of your trousers, slipping his digits underneath the fabric. Butterflies in your stomach, caused the lowest pits to do backflips. As you felt Optimus' servo play with the lace of your undergarments, before giving your ass a cheeky squeeze.
A warmth built up within your core, as your body pressed against Optimus’ chassis. Small volts sparked throughout his wires, as your bust pushed up against him. Taking a moment to pull away from the kiss, as his optics took a cheeky sneak at your cleavage.
S-Sweet Primus!
A flickering flame built up within his core, as dirty thoughts intrude his processors.
His servo cradled your back, as you leaned back a little. Allowing the prime to plant soft kisses along your collar bone, and up towards your neck.
“Y/N... my Sweet Spark.” His toned rippled against you, causing excited shivers to run up your spine.
“Optimus-”
‘Crash!’ ‘Shatter!’
“Bumblebee!” the sound of your sister’s voice interrupted the silence. Followed by a sad whirl wheezing from the yellow Autobot.
You and Optimus looked at the window, which overlooked the balcony. Just seeing a glimpse of Shane and Crosshairs ducking out of sight.
An awkward chuckle erupted between the pair of you, as you and Optimus slowly broke away from one another. Your fingers and his digits tracing each others arm and down towards the palm.
“We uh... should head back inside.” You lowly spoke. Cheeks blushing from the afterglow.
Optimus tenderly kissed your cheek, before returning to his full height. “Indeed... perhaps, we could continue this another time?”
Next Day
“Calm down. Calm down.” Shane nervously muttered to himself, as Bee slowly rolled up to the back entrance of K.S.I.
“Y’know... in times like this, the idea is to keep cool, not look cool.” Cade sighed in the passenger seat. “So why don’t you lose the sunglasses?”
Shane removed the item as Cade briefly glanced at him.
“About a month ago, I thought I heard noises in the middle of the night. Was that you?”
Shane gave him a wide eyed stare, “what? You’re asking me this now?-”
“Don’t lie to me, kid. You see that guy with the gun out there?-”
“There’s so many guys with guns!” his panicky tone hissed.
“Let’s get out the car and tell him we’re about to break in.” Cade’s voice kept it’s calm and collected tone, “we could admit it was your idea. Cause I don’t care, I’m old, I’ve already lived long enough-”
“You have a real bad habit of having these conversations at the wrong time, man!-”
“You wanna come clean, or you want me to make a mess?”
Shane’s heart leapt into his throat, as Cade cleared his throat. Attempting to politely get the attention of one of the guards, “Sir, can I talk to you for a second please?”
“It was me. It was me” the Irishman lowly repeated, as the guard forced Cade’s door shut. Giving Cade a stern expression while shaking his head.
“Taking it in for scanning?” another guard address Shane, while Bee rolled down the driver’s window.
Shane silently nodded, holding up the forged K.S.I staff badge. The guard scanned it, looking over the pair before approving them to go ahead...
The Camero rolled through a hanger of polished concrete floors, and wooden walls painted black. Shane and Cade scanned their surroundings, avoiding eye contact from passing staff members.
“We took old, alien technology and made it better in every way.” A feminine voice echoed over the P.A system, “introducing Stinger.”
Bumblebee rolled to a gentle halt, as Cade’s wide eyed stare glanced up at a pink Transformer. Which was displayed in the middle of the hanger.
“That’s a bad-ass robot.” Shane admired, leaning closer to the windscreen.
“Kinda looks like you, Bee.”
Bumblebee revved his engine, disagreeing with Cade’s observation.
The Texan got out of Bee’s passenger seat, slowly approaching the display. He looked around the hanger, before activating the video recording system, that Crosshairs’ hid into Cade’s smart watch.
“Can you see this, Sweetie?” Cade whispered to you through his ear piece.
“I see it, Dad.” Your polite tone confirmed. “What the hell are these guys doing?”
“Looks like, they’re trying to build their own versions of the Transformers-”
“Well, at least they’re picking cooler cars than this.” Shane interrupted.
Bee revved his engine again, pushing his stirring wheel out of the dashboard and into Shane’s face.
“¬You talk to me like that?¬” the yellow scout buzzed angrily.
“Dad? What’s going on?” your voice scratched through Cade’s ear piece.
“Nothing, Sweetie. I’ll send more stuff your way if I find anything.”
Cade quickly deactivated the recording, approaching Bee’s passenger door again.
“See what happens, when you try and be a smart-ass?” he hissed at Shane.
Shane crawled out of the Autobot’s altmode. As an advertisement projected itself onto a screen, behind the Stinger display.
“Inspired by Bumblebee. But better in every way” the femiline voice continued through the screen.
“~What?~” Bee’s radio harshly buzzed. “~Son of a-”
“No! No!” Cade yelled at the Autobot, whom decided to do burnouts in the hanger. Marking up the polished concrete floor, “you gotta calm down!”
“Bee! Stop messing around!-”
All froze as the sound of voices filled the hanger, Cade and Shane’s nervous stares glanced up at a group of people walking through doors on the opposite side of the hanger.
“Hey!” one of their voices called out. “You two! Grease moneys!”
"Oh shit..." Shane muttered. "That's Mr Joyce, the CEO of K.S.I." He nervously tried to hide behind Bumblebee, as the individual dressed in a fine tailored suit, and glasses approached Cade.
“What the hell is going on here? And what’s with this vintage crap?” He hissed in an hushed whisper.
Bee revved his engine as Mr Joyce gestured towards the Autobot.
“We’re not scanning collector junk.” Joyce's tone held an amused tone, matching his expression. As he continued to talk to Cade, “what is it that you think we make here? Hmm? We make poetry here! We’re poets! When you work for me, you get to make one mistake. One. Understood?”
“Yes Sir.” Cade professionally spoke, “understood. It won’t happen again, Sir.”
“It certainly won't.” Joyce sighed, “now... let’s get this pathetic thing out of here. And you, too.”
Cade silently nodded, feeling Joyce's stare look over him again. Before returning to the rest of the group, and escorting them out of the hanger.
Shane released a heavy sigh of relief, that he had been holding in the whole time.
“You and Bee leave here quietly.” Cade spoke, as he looked at the Irishman over his shoulder. “I’m going to try and have a look around. Hopefully Y/N is doing better than us...”

Your heels clicked along the marble floor, as you walked across the lab of the basement level. Scientists, engineers and various staff hovered around tables. Your hand clenching into a fist inside the pocket of the lab coat, while your free hand fiddled with The Matrix necklace. Your eyes looked at the multiple pieces of alien tech, which scattered across the metal tables throughout the lab.
Your saddened gaze fell onto the heart-wrenching sight before you. A small gasp getting trapped in your throat, as your heart sunk deeper into your chest.
You poor darling. You thought, as the lab-techs melted and pulled parts off, of a decapitated green Autobot helm. What have they done to you?-
“Metal.” A blonde woman wearing a smart three-piece suit approached your side, her blue eyes following your gaze. As you played with your smart watch, discreetly sending the video footage to Drift.
“Just metal. Well, that’s what I always thought of them.”
“You’re wrong.” She gave you a puzzled side glance, as you tried to hide the breaking of your voice. “They’re more than that. They’re living beings with souls- like you and me.”
You pulled a weak smile, “I uh, spoke to one... once.”
“And you’re working with Transformium?”
She studied your silent nod, before turning her attention onto a clear canister filled with a gray substance which looked like sand.
“I’m out there digging for it.” She sighed, “there’s just not much left to find.” Her eyes flickered back to the Autobot’s helm, “so that how badly you guys need more, huh? Reduced to melting old Deceptions?”
“That’s not a Deception.” You corrected, “that’s an Autobot. The ones who fought for us-”
“They slaughtered Ratchet!” Optimus’ angry voice yelled through your ear piece. Almost hurting your ear drum. “I’m gonna tear them apart!”
A loud sound of something falling echoed throughout your ear.
“Excuse me.” You kindly spoke to the blonde woman, as you took a few steps towards one of the exits. “Optimus? Can you hear me?”
Only radio static responded to you.
“Crosshairs? Drift? Can any of you hear me? Please! Don’t do anything rash.”
More static.
An uncomfortable knot twisted in your stomach.
Why do I have a bad feeling about this?-
“Security to Level 3, please. Security to Level 3.” A voice echoed over the P.A system.
Now what?
---
Shit! Shit! Shit!
Cade ran across the third level of the K.S.I building. Alarms going off over the P.A system, as security followed him.
Dodging between frozen staff members, and bursting through random doors. Cade almost made it back to the lift, which lead down back to ground level.
But he had to come to a skidding halt, as more security guards cut him off. Aiming their weapons in his direction.
“Up against the wall! Hands behind your head!”
A heavy sigh left Cade, as he peacefully co-operated. As the security grabbed his arms, placing them against his back and pinning him against the window.
“Corporate espionage.” A familiar voice caught Cade’s attention. Looking over his shoulder to see Mr Joyce, “that’s a very serious crime, Mr. Yeager. How I didn’t recognize you before baffles me, but no matter-”
“Look! Before this goes any further, I want a lawyer!” Cade protested. “Th-The Justice Department. Somebody I can trust! I’m just trying to protect my family, okay? Not from your company! From the government!”
“I can take it from here, Mr. Joyce.” A new individual entered the scene, Joyce studied the new stranger before walking towards the lift at the end of the hall.
Cade studied the new individual. A middle age man stood before him, well dressed like Mr. Joyce but his scalp reveling a receding hairline. Firm yet studious eyes hid behind thin glasses. He made a simple gesture at the security. Allowing Cade to face him fully, while rubbing his wrists a little.
“My name is Attinger, Mr. Yeager.” He introduced, “and who do you think I work for?”
Cade studied Attinger’s sly smile.
“You’re trying to protect your family, that’s admirable. And I’m trying to defend the nation from a alien war, we’ve had a taste of what that looks like.”
He carefully approached Cade, “and we’re certainly not going to tolerate another. Now... there is a version of this conversation, where you get to back to your barn. Your youngest daughter graduate with honor's, while your oldest gets a full-time position with any company within the U.S.A. I’ll even advocate for her personally for a six-figure salary, should she choose to work with me. And life as you know it, goes on.”
Cade raised an eyebrow, as Attinger continued.
“You and your daughters have no idea, what you gotten yourselves into.”
“And what’s the other version of this conversation?” Cade challenged, bring a frown to Attinger’s features. “Sending in your ‘hired help’ to murder my little girls? Or are you going to man up and do it yourself?”
“Depends on your preference, Mr. Yeager... I don’t ask much. You can still turn things into your favor. All you have to do, is convince your eldest to tell me where Optimus Prime is.”
A cheeky smile came to Cade, as the reflection of Bumblebee in the nearby window caught his attention. “I didn’t raise no snitch-”
‘Crash!’
---
Screams echoed throughout K.S.I as Crosshairs and Hound accompanied Optimus. Bursting through high windows, showering everyone below in a rain of glass, as the Autobots made their way through the lower levels.
Crosshairs raised his pistol above his helm, firing warning shots as the trio entered the lab.
“Get out! All of you!” Optimus roared, as people scattered away from him.
“Science fair’s over, meat-bags!” Hound’s voice thundered.
“Destroy the lab!”
The Autobots happily carried out their leader’s orders. Crosshairs and Hound fired at the piles of alien technology, kicking tables and igniting all manner of equipment.
“Excuse me!” You squeaked, trying to push through the flood of people exiting the lab. “Out of my way, please!”
“Destroy it all!”
Your pounding heart ached a little, as Optimus’ rageful voice yelled commands.
“Hey!” Joyce's voice roared over the gunfire, storming over to the Autobot leader. “Hey! Stop! That’s company property!”
“They’re not your property!” Optimus challenged, as he stood over Joyce. Allowing Hound to satisfyingly kick a table filled with alien parts.
“They were my friends!”
Joyce’s studious gaze analyzed the situation.
Finally pushing through the crowd, your eyes widened as Hound clocked his cannon. The weapon releasing a humming sound, as he aimed it at Joyce.
“Oh, you not talking so much now!” a smaller Autobot teased. “Not so tough when Hound is in front of you, huh?”
You watched the small Cybertronian climb onto the barrel of Hound’s cannon, his optics glaring daggers at Joyce.
“Go ahead.” Joyce calmly taunted, “show us your true colours, once and for all-”
“Just give me the word.” Hound smiled, “I’ll splatter him-”
“No! Don’t!” you cried.
“Why don’t you tell Itchy Fingers here, that this is all the spoils of war?” Joyce challenged, “dead metal. Innovation. That’s what we do here, it’s simply science! Because if we don’t do it, somebody else will! Because you cannot stop technology!-”
“We’re not your technology!” Optimus roared.
You ducked as the Autobot blindly kicked machinery into your direction. Causing sparks to erupt from power-ports, and machinery bits fly over your head.
“Optimus! Stop!” you begged.
“Let me vaporize his ass!-”
“Don’t do it, Hound!”
You quickly approached Joyce, standing between him and the barrel of Hound’s cannon.
"Out the way, Y/N." Hound's tone of voice sounded more like a warning, than a pea.
"No, I wont." You gazed into his green optics, range faded as sorrow filled them. "You're better than this Hound. Please... lower your weapon."
Hesitating for a moment, the Autobot grumbled. His cannon slowly shutting down, placing the weapon over his shoulder.
“I broke the code. I own your whole genome.” Joyce spoke with a smug expression. Confidence returning to his tone, since you've became his 'shield.'
“Keep digging your grave!” You hissed turning your whole body to him. “I’m not here for your sorry ass!”
Optimus crouched down to your level, lowering the barrel of his weapon. As his servo went from the weapon's trigger, and reached out for you.
“Y/N...?”
“We’ll tell the world what’s happening here.” You promised. Looking up at him, giving his index digit a comforting touch.
Your voice almost soothing Optimus’ rage filled Spark.
“Interesting... you allied yourself with them?’” Joyce questioned, gesturing at you and Optimus. His curious gaze switching between the pair of you, "or... am I sensing something, a little more?-"
"I'm giving you one chance." You firmly spoke, turning your attention back onto Joyce. "Stop doing this. Or the whole world will know what's happening here! What you're doing them!"
Joyce snickered at your words, “the world? The world would approve, my dear. We can make them now. Don’t you get it? Humanity doesn't need the Transformers anymore-”
“You’re wrong!” You said, shaking your head. “Humanity will always need the Cybertronians.”
A weak smile came to Hound, “you tell him Y/N.”
Optimus studied you and Joyce, puffing out his chest and releasing a unsatisfied huff.
“Autobots... we’re done.”
