(Georgetown, South Carolina)

Requiem sat in silence, boredom weighing heavily on the femme, she just wanted this disguised survey assignment to end soon.

Ever since the break of dawn upon South Carolina, she had been resting here in silence, waiting for something to happen.

She started when the sun was rising, now it was coming to an end as the the light began to disappear from across the horizon.

The lieutenant was about to report in and retire for the night when her HUD flashed. She opened the device and detected at least half-a-dozen energon signatures.

Suspicion rising in her, she opened her comms.

"Requiem to base, Blackwolf, I've got cons on my radar. What's your advised course of action?" she awaited her leader's answer.

"Investigate immediately, but only refrain from engaging if there's too many for you to take on alone. Activate your distress signal if your need backup, myself and Dreadnought will be on standby." the Prime answered sternly before closing the comms.

The porsche activated its headlights and began driving at a steady pace to intercept the Decepticons. What Requiem didn't know was that the outcome of this mission would change Team Wolf's future.

xXx

Psion and Fortem viewed the area their vehicons had been spotted briefly, South Carolina. That gave them the base info that the Autobot team was located.

Arcanus entered the room, a confident smirk on his face. His red optics shined brightly in the dark halls of the Voyager.

"Lord Psion, I've heard your predicament and believe I have a suitable plan to reveal the Autobots." he kept his smirk.

"And what is that, Arcanus?" Fortem asked for his leader, who remained silent.

"We target humans separated from larger crowds, the Autobots, pulled by their nauseating code of honor, will arrive to save our victims and thus, reveal our opposition." the insane doctor fell silent.

Fortem pondered it before looking to Psion for her opinion. The Decepticon leader had the ghost of a smirk on her face.

"You've taken no time to help us Arcanus, I can tell it was smart to bring you with us. Fortem, send...say...twelve vehicons to this Georgetown in South Carolina. Have a small group stay hidden while the rest seek the target." Fortem nodded before leaving with his new orders.

After the second in command left, she felt something make her curious.

"Arcanus...on the slim chance we managed to capture a human, what would you do with it?" she asked the doctor, who grinned wickedly.

"Well...I'll save you the gruesome details…but let's just say, it would be very interesting to study the human anatomy firsthand." he grinned, which answered her question well.

(Georgetown High School, South Carolina)

School was getting out later than usual due to an extended pep rally. Drake waited patiently at the main entrance to the school, he was more excited than he'd been in ages.

His patience was rewarded when Talia, who he was awaiting appeared before him, but to his disgust, with Sean.

She looked extremely uncomfortable, he could already tell Sean had begun to pester her with his crude dictionary.

Drake couldn't stand to see her get picked off on her first day and moved to separate Sean from her.

"Please, I have plans this evening, I'll be even more late than I am if you keep talking to me." she tried to sound polite with the bully's inappropriate demeanor.

"C'mon baby, think about my offer and I'll rock your world." he said with a terrible grin, his greasy blonde hair hidden by his hood.

Talia was rescued when Drake stepped in between her and Sean.

"She asked you to stop, Sean." he growled lightly, Sean's grin left almost instantly.

"And who asked you for input, Drake?" he sneered, but the Morrsion didn't falter.

"I won't repeat myself, let her go and stop following her." the taller teen demanded. Sean was about to respond, his fists clenched; he looked in the corner of his eyes and spotted Morgan Robinson, maybe forty feet away, giving him a death glare.

Sean seemed to swallow hard at the football player's focus on if he tried to attack Drake.

"Fine...but remember this Drake, you won't always have Robinson around to hide behind. I cannot wait for when that day comes." he growled before backing away, his eyes meeting Drake's and then Talia's one more time.

Drake said nothing before looking to where Morgan was and smiled thankfully. The school's MVP just smiled in return.

Talia's face was slightly red after seeing Drake step up for her. Her entire face was warm and her heartbeat had increased ever so slightly.

She tried to hide it when Drake looked back at her, a warm smile on his face.

"Shall we go?" he asked, gesturing to the town outside. She gave him a brief nod as they ventured into Georgetown.

Morgan was surprised but happy when he saw his friend leave with Talia.

"Go get her pal." Morgan thought before returning to the group of teammates he'd been talking to previously.

xXx

It had been several hours since the final school bell, Drake was ecstatic. He was in the presence of this gorgeous girl who didn't seem to care that he was a huge nerd.

While he always had thought of Georgetown as a boring, uneventful place, Talia thought and talked about it as if it was the most incredible place she'd ever visited.

He'd brought her to many 'historical' spots in Georgetown, but unlike states like Kentucky, South Carolina didn't lack a rich history. It's beginning in the early colonial age up to the Civil War. After that the history's interest became skewed. But she didn't seem to care, just listening intently.

An idea formed in his brain and he stopped to look at her.

"C'mon. I wanna show you something actually special about Georgetown." he smirked before turning their simple walk into a jog. As he expected, she kept up with him easily. They didn't stop til they came from a secluded section in the outskirts of Georgetown.

He led her to a construction zone around several unfinished buildings. She was nervous about going somewhere that a 'no entry' sign was hung as warning, but didn't argue with him at all.

He led her up one of the skeleton building, wooden planks creaked with every step the two teenagers took. She questioned the value or worth of risking to come here. Soon though, he led her to the tip of the building's frame and she was awestruck.

Now above the forests surrounding Georgetown and into the distance, she could make out palm trees and the vast ocean on the horizon. Her eyes scanned it in utter wonder.

He smiled, knowing the expression she had was exactly what he'd hoped for.

"Wow…" she uttered.

"I come up here all the time when the workers have gone home. It helps me clear my head." he smiled, enjoying the view. But tonight, he had only eyes for her.

For what felt like hours, in what was actually minutes, they finally left the building frame and were reminded by how massive the area surrounding this building would be once it was complete.

Drake would have guessed it would be a shopping area, the few buildings that stood were unfinished and were angled irregularly as if to surround the large area they were being built upon.

He stopped, their shoes planted in the gravel, and turned to gain her attention.

"Look...I know not many people are gonna say this but...it's great to have you here Talia and I hope you come to enjoy Georgetown." he faintly smiled, which she returned.

"This evening has been incredible! I love this place already. I can't wait to see more!" she smiled, the light of the setting sun reflecting in her gorgeous eyes, making his heart skip a beat.

They were interrupted as they were suddenly attacked by bright lights. Six pairs of headlights turned on from their front.. From the darkened town, several vehicles entered the construction zone.

They were startled as the vehicles surrounded them. Talia was absolutely confused by the sight.

Soon the cars came to a halt, only silence filled the air.

The silence was interrupted when a loud, mechanical noise emitted from the strange, sleek cars. To their shock and fear, the cars all began folding, splitting, turning, and deforming. The vehicles soon began to take new forms, Drake and Talia could only watch in shock as this happened around them.

The vehicles soon stopped, they had very, human-like appearances, bar the facts that they were made of metal, stood at maybe more than three stories tall, and had bright red 'v' shaped visors on their metallic faces.

One suddenly reached out towards the two humans, in fear, Drake pushed to move Talia and himself out of the way.

"Run!" he yelled as the being tried to grab them; they luckily ran out of its reach.

"What are those things?!" she asked while running, he gasped in answer.

"I have not clue! Just keep running!" he panicked. The two wouldn't have made it far as one of the beings ran to cut them off. The ran back only to see one aiming a barrel of some sort, purple energy glowing from in it.

A loud car rev and engine could be heard getting closer, the object on the being's arm released a huge bolt of purple energy. A violet car with red accents drove at dangerous speeds towards the scene.

The new car changed form just like the other ones, but this being was much different in appearance. It was smaller in size and height, the front wheels folded onto the back of this one and the doors became wings on its back. This robot was also much more compact, rounded and smoothly built and had a pair of blue glowing eyes. Drake also guessed it was a meant to be feminine in general.

The new being jumped in the way of the blast and blocked the humans.

Talia was shocked by how much was happening in such short time.

The smaller robot turned to look back upon the humans, it's eyes widened in realization.

"Scrap." the being spoke in a feminine voice.

Drake took the chance to grab Talia's hand and pulled her to cover as the identical beings focused on the new one that had appeared.

Requiem growled, these vehicons were much different from their predecessors, Psion's own design no doubt. She activated something and drew a pair of energon infused short-swords.

The vehicons all activated their own swords, preparing to attack. One charger, sword raised, she ducked under the attack and swept her powerful leg to kick the con's out from beneath him.

She span around to catch a sword between her blades before driving her spiked knee into the vehicon's metal gut. The con fell back in pain before she threw him in the way of another vehicon.

The next one to attack made the mistake of leaving his chest wide open to attack, which she took advantage of by dodging his attack and thrust her daggers into the torso armor.

The vehicon fell to the ground with a metal thud. The other vehicons were hesitant to attack.

Suddenly, a crack in the sound barrier could be heard when six ships flew from the clouds and changed forms before Requiem. The seekers' all readied their own weapons and moved to surround her.

But before they could, a crack of electricity came from behind her, a flash of green energy appeared before a swirling portal opened.

From the portal came three more Autobots, one was a smaller built mech, painted dark gray with aqua stripes, red optics and small wings on his helm. The second one was a huge titan, who was a deep blue with almost gray-blue accents to match the blue visor that concealed his optics.

The last mech was larger than the first one but smaller than the titan sized cybertronian. He was solid black in paint and had bright yellow, royal stripes to match his golden optics. His wolf-ish face only made him look more menacing in battle.

Requiem sighed at seeing them arrive finally.

"You're late." she growled, earning a chuckle from the smaller mech.

"You called in short notice." he chuckled before drawing his dual sabers.

Dreadnought only grunted before grabbing a huge tower-shield and a multi-purpose mace. It could be used in one and two hands.

Blackwolf remained serious like Dreadnought, but his expression became grim slightly upon seeing the humans behind cover.

"Requiem, you didn't tell us civilians were involved!" he looked to his second, she shrugged.

"I didn't plan on it, but they would've died had I not intervened." she sighed, but his expression softened.

"I understand." he said before drawing his swords and turning them into a two-handed blade.

"Hey, can we talk about this later! When we're not getting shot at?" Dreadnought asked, his baritone voice booming, while the vehicons prepared to fire their blasters.

"Right. Requiem, cover the humans, we'll handle this!" Blackwolf activated his battle mask, the metal covering his short snout.

The three charged the eleven decepticons. Darkwing struck first, impaling two on his blades.

Dreadnought barreled into the vehicons and seekers, crushing several under the power of his charge. He bashed one away with his shield, crushed another under his mace, and sent three away with a swing.

Blackwolf impaled a vehicon on his entire sword before retrieving it. He blocked an attack from his right flank before bashing the vehicon in the helm with the hilt of his blade.

He parried another attack from his left flank, the vehicon stumbled back before he raised his sword and beheaded the soldier. The last vehicon had no time before he swung his sword in a '180' direction and nearly cut the soldier in half.

Another prepared to charge Requiem as she protected the humans, Drake and Talia stayed hidden in fear as the giant beings battled in front of them. A sword flew from Darkwing and impaled the vehicon charging her.

The fighting fell silent as they made quick work of the vehicons and seekers. The ground was littered with corpses and spilled energon.

They were about to call for a bridge before the matter of the two humans watching them resurfaced.

"Scrap…" Blackwolf sighed in annoyance.

"Dreadnought, Darkwing, keep watch...this won't take long." he sighed, separating his sword and sheathing the blades.

He stepped before the humans, his form shining in the darkening light of day.

"Easy humans...we mean you no harm." he deactivated his battle mask, revealing his snout and entire face.

Drake and Talia, while still terrified, stepped from the building they'd been hidden in.

"State your names, it's vital we know now." the Prime spoke calmly.

"...my name?" Drake asked, the mech nodded.

"Yes. I need your name because you've both seen us." he didn't want to scare them further.

"...D-Drake. Drake Morrison." he answered fearfully.

Blackwolf looked at the female now who refused to make eye contact out of fear.

"...Talia Mizrah…" she spoke just loud enough to be heard.

"Good. Good. Now...I am Blackwolf, leader of the Autobots. Introductions are due but not here, you've seen us. We have to bring you both to our base." he tried to seem harmless to them, but the Prime knew they were terrified.

"What are you?" he asked the Prime, who chuckled.

"In due time, but this isn't the time nor place." he spoke calmly. As if on cue, the green portal opened again.

Drake looked to Talia, who returned the concerned look he gave her.

xXx

The Autobots returned to base, the humans were in pure aw. The green circle that had appeared transported them to this strange place...somehow.

Another femme, larger than Requiem, painted green with yellow accents and green optics stood to greet them. Her expression turned to shock upon seeing humans enter with their leader.

"Humans?! You've brought humans here?" she asked, Blackwold waved her concerns off.

"Complications happened Zodiac, we brought them here to be safe for the moment. The male is Drake Morrsion, the female: Talia Mizrah. There was no way of saving them without being spotted." he spoke calmly.

Dreadnought said nothing as he went about his business, maintenance on his weapons.

Darkwing also left to train it seemed, leaving the Prime, Lieutenant, and Medic alone with the humans.

"Alright you've brought us here, now what are you? Aliens or something?" Drake asked, his excitement was rising again.

"We're a race of autonomous robots from the planet, Cybertron." Blackwolf answered the human's question.

"You may call us 'Autobots' for short." Zodiac commented.

"Why are you here? On Earth?" Talia asked, thinking of how ridiculous, yet shocking it was to ask this question and it be necessary.

"We're here to find the last reserve of Dark Energon, the final piece of the Decepticons' plan to revive Megatron." Blackwolf sighed, to their confusion.

"Dark energon? Mega-what? What's this all about?" Drake now asked. Blackwolf activated some kind of hologram from his optics that appeared on the floor below the humans. It seemed to make everything come to life, the floor split apart, revealing fire and destruction.

"We were once an intelligent and powerful empire, peaceful and just. But from the gladiator pits came war. Megatron rose up from the ashes to spark the powerful conflict that ravaged our world. Despite the Decepticons' strategic superiority in numbers, weapons and might overall, the early Primes and High Council formed the Autobots. They formed our original army of civilians, workers, scientists, clerks, crafters, and the limited Elite Guard. The Primes led our small but diverse force to combat the Decepticon army."

"After thousands of years, day after day, battle after battle, opened theater after opened theater, year after year...our planet was destroyed by its own inhabitants. The Autobots attempted to defend Cybertron, but we had been the lesser army since the beginning. But at one point during the war, just when we began to turn the tide…Shockwave came."

"Shockwave?" Talia asked.

"Yes...he was while insane, brilliant. After hundreds upon thousands of experiments, he made several breakthroughs for the Decepticon cause. Advanced soldiers, destructive weapons, new forms of energon to give their side an edge. In the end, his creations cost us any chance of winning the war. We held up a daily defense in Iacon City. One fateful day, when the Prime before I was one, Zeta Prime, who led the Autobots was captured and killed, another mech named Optimus, formerly known as Orion Pax, was given the title as Prime and led us in a final attempt to either save our planet...or the Cybertronian race. The war inevitably ended with The Great Exodus. Our race's source of energy, Energon, was scarce while Cybertron's core was dead. In a deadly conflict, the Autobots managed to send several ship fleets into the stars to survive."

The vision ended, the two humans were stunned.

"Now, fifteen years following the death of Megatron and Optimus giving his life to restore Cybertron, the new Decepticon leader, Psion, has the corpse of their fallen warlord." he lowered his head in shame.

"If the Decepticons find the dark energon, the war will reignite under Megatron's iron rule. The fires of our conflict will spread to even this planet...and will inevitably end in the entire human races' extinction." Requiem added to the Prime's tale.

"So...Drake and Talia, that is the story of our war. I know this is a lot to take it...but neither of you can pretend to ignore this any longer." Blackwolf's ending statement caused them to both seem surprised.

"The Decepticons know you're both involved...they could find you...use you against us or the humans. For your protection, you'll both be assigned a guardian. Unfortunately, only three of us have suitable forms to avoid drawing great suspicion: Requiem, Zodiac and myself. I'd volunteer but I'm needed at base whenever possible. Zodiac is also crucial to be kept at base. Requiem, you shall watch over the humans."

"What?!" she growled in confusion.

"Don't we get a say in this?" Drake asked, but the Prime shook his helm.

"Not in this. The Decepticons will target either of you or those you're close to. We must avoid this at all costs." he sighed.

Requiem growled in silence, muttering curses under her breath.

Blackwolf didn't let this go unnoticed.

"Requiem, I know this isn't what you want to be doing daily on Earth...but we-I need you to watch over these humans. Please...if not for the sake of the war then for me, undertake this task." he asked sincerely.

Requiem's face heated up when his voice became lighter, she didn't know why the ghost of an electric blue blush crept onto her face. She avoided her leader's gaze and answered him.

"Fine...I'll watch...and protect Drake and Talia." she sighed.

"Good...now...it's late, they're both probably late to return home. Requiem, assist in getting them back to Georgetown." he calmly answered.

"Wait, what am I supposed to tell my dad when he sees a porsche in our garage? If you know anything about them, they're not cheap cars that a highschool student can afford...especially one who doesn't have a job anymore." his words hit Blackwolf with pause.

"I...am not sure...Drake, you'll have to make an excuse for yourself. I'm afraid we cannot assist you in that respect. If all else fails, we will hold Requiem to protect you both from a distance." he sighed.

"Now...it's past time we returned the humans. Requiem?" he looked to his lieutenant, who grunted in annoyance.

"Very well." she hissed.

She changed forms until she sat in her porsche appearance.

"Get in." she said bluntly, her doors opening.
