Chapter one: Paying a visit

It was a normal morning at N.E.S.T HQ. Just the usual greetings and morning routines of the soldiers who lived on base for the time being along with the gradually new routine of the new twins Skids and Mudflap's bickering over only Primus knows what, the usual morning for anyone that was used to it. It's also another normal morning for a young techno organic teen that was very well known around the base. Tatyana Witwicky/Prime daughter of the Autobot leader Optimus Prime and cousin of Samuel Witwicky strode into the operating room a coffee in hand. But what was a new addition to her morning routine was her adoptive daughter Sparrow and faithful dog Psyche already active this early.

Sparrow chased Psych playfully as they entered the room with Tatyana earning the attention from the few soldiers already in the room. Tatyana smiled to the adorable sight sitting at an available seat very happy to have to have her two babies keep her company. Whenever the bots were too caught up with training, patrolling, or on missions or just doing their own thing it could get very boring and lonely for the young woman besides the occasional visit from her father or boyfriend Jazz along with the not so frequent lately phone call from her dear cousin or good friend Mikaela. For now it would be good with some company around these two together would defiantly turn any boring thing around for Tatyana. The chasseing continued until the tables turned for the adorable. Sparrow squealed surprised when Psyche turned suddenly. The sparkling came to a quick halt just in time before slamming into Psyches face. Psyche then began to lick Sparrows face plating sweetly causing her to fall to her back laughing loudly

"Hey release my baby you monster!" Tai exclaimed "running" towards Psyche. Playfully she tackled Psyche to the floor and began to scratch her stomach. Psyche's leg began to wag from satisfaction as well as happiness. The playing stopped as soon as a loud alarm beeping came from the computer screens.

"Crap," Tai muttered to herself getting up. She quickly made her way back to her seat to solve the problem. An angered look came to her face as the problem was reported on the screen. A Decepticon signal. Tai quickly com linked her father and Major Lennox

"Dad, Lennox we have a Decepticon signal,"

"Hmm, we haven't had many in a while," Optimus' voice was herd over the link. Just then two more signals flashed on to the screen. One being an Autobot where the other was unidentified

"Now we have two other signals," Tai stated surprise rising in her voice. "Ones an Autobot signal"

"What about the other?" Will asked.

"It's no sure what to make of the second one."

"Where are they located?" Optimus asked.

"Just a sec," Tai ran a search on the signal "whoa didn't see that comin"

"What's the problem?"

"The signals are comin from the south. In northern Louisiana." this posed a big problem for residence in that region. The city of New Orleans was still recovering from the major damage from the flooding of hurricane Katrina and if a Decepticon went further south and reached the city in its crippled state it could do even wore damage and the city would probably never recover. But the question was why a Decepticon would be in a place such as New Orleans. There couldn't be any thing there that could benefit the Decepticons could there?

"We should move a.s.a.p." Lennox ended the com link. After a signal to move out rang through the base. A few soldiers along with Tatyana began to rush out the room to prep themselves to leave but Tatyana was stopped by her daughter and dog as they watched with sad optics and eyes. Tai's eye brows frowned. If she thought on it this morning was special to her and her daughter, it wasn't every morning they were able to spend time together and it was interrupted by a mission that had to be taken. Sparrow's optics showed she was very hurt by this. Tai walked over to the two and kneeled before them. She spoke softly

"I have to leave but don't worry mommy will be fine". Smiling sweetly, Tai kissed they're heads and hugged them both before leaving the room waving good bye to them.

"Come on Psyche." Sparrow said. A mischievous smile crossed her face plating. She looked Psyche in the eyes that seemed to get the message due to the 'smile' she gave. The duo traveled down the opposite hall slyly.

The Autobots and soldiers waited in the small town of Baton Rouge with a low profile. Either descised as cars or just playing the role or military personal on their way to New Orleans they stayed alert for any Decepticon activity or anything out of the ordinary. Parked near a small store Tai lay on Jazz's hood looking to the sky. The other Autobots were nearby. Optimus, Ratchet, Ironhide, Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Skids, Mudflap, and Barricade either drove around or was parked under the shade to escape the hot sun scenes high patiently waiting for anything.

Tatyana on the other hand was growing impatient more and more by the minuet. It has been two hours and nothing was happening. No activity reported or evidence that any Decepticon was in the area. On top of that the signals that led them here were completely gone as if they were never here. Tai finally cracked from the waiting

"Urgggh this is torture!" Tai groaned sliding off Jazz's hood. Jazz sighed.

"Babe calm down." Jazz's voice sounded from the radio

"Jazz we've been waiting for two hours and haven't seen anything" Tai grumbled turning to his vehicle mode. This earned her a few strange look from the passing locals. Trying to cover the embracement Tai awkwardly cleared her thought while turning the other direction. After she was sure they had gone tai walked back to Jazz. Her stomach then growled very loudly.

"Ugh getin a little hungry," Tai said flatly.

"A lil you kidin me did ya eat dis morn?" Jazz asked. Tai only shook her head.

"Didn't get a real big chance to catch a bite." Tai frowned heavily. She placed a hand on her empty stomach. Now was one of those times she really regretted not eating anything, poor Tatyana was beginning to starve. Her hungry eyes scanned over the small stores until she spotted a gas station slash McDonalds .not her first choice but hey at this point she was willing to eat anything that was eatable food.

"I'm gonna head to that McDonalds over there" Tai said with a slight smile.

"kay, just stay alert babe," Jazz told her. Tai gave a thumbs up before casually making her way across the street to the only available food source. Finally, she came into the parking lot and glanced around at the few cars. It was when she spotted a familiar black striped yellow Camaro she stopped in her tracks. Leaning on the hood was a boy with spiked blonde hair with black streaks. His skin was fair and eyes electric dark blue [AN: I got the eye color from the pencil I wrote this with]. He wore a normal pair of blue jeans along with a black shirt under a yellow jacket (that was way too hot to be wearing) with the Autobot symbol on red on the left shoulder. Oh yeah it was him, She'd recognized that boy anywhere. Tai's eyes widened slightly and her eye brows shot up.

The boy was too busy flirting with passing girls to notice Tai walking up to him with her arms crossed. The ringing of her phone caused her to halt. Who could be calling her now? Taking out her phone Tai checked the message screen to see…'Dad'?

"Hello dad?" she answered.

"Tatyana might I ask why I found psyche and sparrow hiding out in the woods?" Optimus asked sounding very unamused.

"What?" Sparrow and Psyche? Her Sparrow and Psyche hiding out in the woods in Louisiana? Obviously they managed to sneak on to the plane but how did they without being seen? Anyone in there right mind would defiantly see a Great Dane and a sparkling no bigger than a normal small child at least try to make their way on to a military plane filled with military officials and Autobots.

"Dad I can honestly say I have no idea why they're here," Tai confessed.

"Well according to Sparrow she and Psyche didn't want to leave you alone." Hearing this made Tai's Heart flutter and warm. Evan on a boring mission like this they would want to keep her but that wasn't an excuse to join a mission that could have easily turned dangerous in a blink of an eye.

"Aw that's so sweet, tell Sparrow she and Psyche are in so much trouble when I see them." Tai herd Optimus chuckle before they said their goodbyes. After she put her cell safely back into her pocket she made her way back to Bee's holoform. When she finally reached him she tapped his shoulder. Thinking it was another admirer Bee turned with a smirk across his face that faded when he saw Tatyana.

"Um hi I guess," he spoke confusion crossed his voice.

"Bee why are here?" Tai asked calmly. Bee gave her an odd look.

"We're visiting family," Bee answered. Tai's jaw dropped slightly hearing his answer. Before Tai could pepper Bee with questions that would require multiple answers they saw Sam walk out the store with Mikaela. As soon as Mikaela saw she gave Tai a willing which Tai returned. They pulled away smiling to each other.

"Hey Tie-Dye Small world," Sam said hugging his cousin as well "you decided to come Hugh?"

"whatchya mean 'decided to come'?" she asked he hadn't asked her to come along did he?

"You remember last Thursday when I came over… oh that's right."

"What?"

"I asked if you wanted to come but it was like right before you fell and hit your on Jazz's foot. I wouldn't expect you to remember cause you did hit pretty hard too." Sam explains. Come to think of it Sam had a point. Tai had to go to the med bay after she claimed to start seeing double and by the time she felt better she couldn't really recall what happened before hand.

"Now I remember…sort of," said Tai

"So if you're not here to come along then why are you here?" Sam asked.

"We were on a mission because we picked up a Autobot signal, a Decepticon signal and another we aren't so sure about. We waited for two hours then I got hungry so I came over to get something to eat when I saw him." Tai looked to Bee. "So who are you visiting? I didn't know we had family down here."

"Yeah right like you don't know," Sam spoke jokingly nudging her lightly. Tai only gave him a confused look as he continued to smile, that soon faded when he realized she was serious. She was clearly confused.

"You don't know do you?"

"Obviously," Tai retorted crossing her arms.

"Well we're visiting our adopted cousin," Sam said. Tai stayed silent for a few seconds then began laughing. Sam, Mikaela, and Bee looked to each other as she got a good crack out of the 'joke'.

"What's so funny?" Bee whispered to Mikaela.

"Yeah right," Tai breathed. "I'm so sure I have a cousin I never even knew existed."

"Tai it's true." Sam spoke stopping her laughter. She looked up to Sam in disbelief. What she was hearing was in fact true, Tai could tell by the look on Sam's face he wasn't lying.

"You're seriously not kidding me?" Sam shook his head "well how come you never knew?"

"I thought my folks told you about her years ago," he defended himself. "She came into the family like five or six years ago. It was when Uncle Chase and Aunt Kathrin moved down to New Orleans. Ya know they couldn't have kids so they just adopted and that's how Justice joined the family."

"Her names Justice?" was all Tatyana asked. Sam nodded surprised. He was more than sure she would start up with the twenty questions game after he leaked about their secret cousin. Tai looked to the ground then suddenly a huge smile crossed her face. The only thing running through her mind now was 'I have another cousin'

"This is so awesome!" Tai cheered very loudly causing a few people to stare at her. Well then her attitude certainly flipped.

"I can't believe I have another cousin." She turned to Sam "can I come with please?" she asked very eagerly clutching her hands together.

"Of course" Sam smiled. Tai clutched her fists in victory. She was getting a chance to see her new all but too new to her cousin for the first time literally right after finding out she even had another cousin. How often did this chance come around for anyone? Her guess had to be not so often.

"Wow," Sam muttered to Mikaela "wonder how she would have taken it if I would have told her Justice actually wanted to meet her" Mikaela giggle lightly. Remembering why she came over here in the first place Tai walked pass her cousin and friend to the gas station.

"Where ya gonin?" Sam asked. Tai turned to face him fully.

"In the store, still need to grab a bit to eat and the real reason why I was hungry in the first was because I missed breakfast," she said

"Why'd you miss breakfast?" asked Sam

"I missed breaky cause we were called for the mission early and I had like just woke up". Sam nodded. Tai smiled walking in to the store wanting to fine just something to eat as quickly as she could so they could set out Evan faster. Then it occurred to her she would have to get permission from her father and clearance from will to abort the mission. That wouldn't be an easy job at all well she would just have to try.
