You were all driving down the desert highway in a single file line. You and Optimus first, then Jazz, then Ratchet, and finally IronHide. You guys had been driving for about two hours now, and were about a had about 100 miles left to go to reach your destination. The hover dam. Hopefully there you would be able to find the cube and your friends. The ride had been mostly quite so far, except with a few short conversations between you and one of the Autobots. It was almost noon now, when you heard Jazz's voice speak three the radio link that Optimus kept open.

"Yo girl?" He asked.

"Yeah Jazz?"

"Don't mind what we were saying about humans earlier. You really care about Bumblebee and the rest of us, so you have my respect. Your definitely one cool Chick." He said.

You smiled, grateful and touched by his words. Before you could say anything, Ironhide spoke next.

"He's right, sweetheart. I still think your race is shitty, but your one of the good ones. You've got my respect, so I got your back." Said IronHide.

Then Ratchet's voice was heard threw the radio next.

"Indeed. While others of your species tend to be quiet foolish, you are very reasonable. Actually I'd go so far to say your the only human I can tolerate. So yes you also have my respect." Said Ratchet.

"And mine as well. You are a part of this team now (y/n). Never forget. I'm glad to count you among my Autobots." Said Optimus.

You were speechless. You had on one of the happiness smiles of your life, as tears of happiness streamed down your cheeks. You were so happy that they all accepted and respected you, and didn't hate you.

"Thank you. Thank you all so much." You said in pure happiness.

You all fell into a comfortable silence, nothing else needing to be said. The scenery had turned for dessert to grassland. It had been an hour since the last conversation, when you noticed a few vehicles heading towards you. As they got closer you recognized the familiar yellow Camaro. You were filled with utter joy to see you friend alright, and were on the edge of your seat as you pointed to him out the window.

"Optimus it's Bumblebee! He's okay!" You exclaimed in joy.

Optimus blowed his horn at the sight of him, letting the young Autobot know they were there. Bumblebee drove right past us with 3 military vehicles following right behind him. You could see Sam and Mikaela threw his window as they drove past. You smiled that all of your friends were alright. Optimus immediately skitted to a stop as did the others, and turned to follow Bumblebee. We were now headed back the way we came in a new lineup. The new line up was Bumblebee in the lead, then one of the military vehicles, then IronHide, then Jazz, then the other two military vehicles, then Ratchet, and finally you and Optimus. You turned to the radio and spoke threw the open com link.

"I'm so glad to see you guys! Are you alright? Did you get the cube?" You asked.

You heard happy beeps from Bumblebee.

"We're alright (n/n). It's good to see you to." Said Mikaela.

"Yeah and we got the cube. Now listen. This is the plan." Said Sam.

Sam then went on to explain the plan. They were going to take the cube to mission city to hide it and get it into military hands. They also told you that Megatron was back. Well that's just great. You prayed this plan worked. You guys were now traveling down the highway, and there were many civilians driving on the high way as well. You heard sirens and turned to see the same cop car deception that attacked you guys earlier. Following the cop car was a giant truck with a claw.

"Optimus, we've got deceptions." You said.

The other Autobots drove infront of Optimus, and you watched as the deception with the claw was knocking over and throwing cars in his path most likely killing the people inside. He then transformed and smashed right threw a buss causing it to explode.

"Oh scrap." You said.

"Hang on." Said Optimus.

Suddenly you heard the sound of Optimus transforming. Everything began twisting around you, until everything went dark. All the sound around you was muffled. You were currently in the subspace in Optimus' chassis. You heard a muffled roar, before you felt something slam into Optimus. Everything around you went spinning, until you felt Optimus slam against something with a big bang. The crash had you body being slammed against one of the walls. You were certain that was gonna leave a bruise. What happened? Did Optimus fall or something? Everything then started swaying and Optimus fought the deception. This was making you nauseous. You heard the continued grunts and roars of the mechs, and the slamming of metal as they battled. Then everything shook around you , as Optimus landed from a jump to a lower level. You heard more banging until you heard sparks flying and a bang as something his the ground next to you. Optimus walked around serveying the Destroyed wreck of the deception, before he opened his chassis for you to climb out. You slowly pooped out if his chassis, as he looked at you with concerned eyes.

"(Y/n), are you alright?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'll be fine... When the world stops spinning." You said still dizzy.

He gave a sigh in relief that you were alright.

"The others are probably already at the city now." You said while climbing onto his servo.

"Indeed. We must hurry." Said Optimus.

He then transformed around you, and you found yourself once more in his Alt mode. Unfortunately since you guys were now in a different highway level then before, it would take you guys much longer to reach the city then before. You prayed you'd make it time, as Optimus sped of towards mission city.
