Chapter 1

It was the afternoon in Jasper Nevada, Jack came out of school eager to see his auto bot guardian once again. He ran out and spotted the blue motorcycle waiting for him near the parking-lot. He only walked about 6 paces when someone interrupted him. It was Sierra. "Hey Jack, you kinda bolted out of school, whats the rush?" She asked. Jack was pleasantly surprised, it seemed in the past month that he and Sierra had been getting along very well. They talked everyday and sometimes she would sit next to him in class. Yet even so, he felt nervous at her presence but it seemed to tone down enough to get him by. "Oh I was heading home gotta get their to get some stuff done", "What kinda stuff?"- Jack paused, as much as he would like to tell her, if he did she probably think he was crazy. Lately it had been more and more stressful to keep his adventures a secret. The only people he hanged with on a regular basis was Miko, Raph, Arcee and the rest of the bots. Jack didn't mind much, though he did not enjoy the rumors about his activities outside of school.

"Well, I have to take care of some errands for my Mom and need to visit a friends house to help with a project" "Oh... Its Miko right?" Jack stammered "what?" "Well I see you and Miko always walking together after school... Are you guys going out or something?" "No! No she's just a good friend is all. She's close to my Mom so that's why I see her a lot" Sierra blushed, "Um... Sorry. Well can I call you sometime?" Jacks eyes lit up- "Sure! Anytime" Jack dug his phone out of his pocket and handed it to her. She quickly punched in the numbers. There was a long pause. "Well okay... just call me when you can Jack, See ya" She left and did a little sign with her hand before disappearing in a crowd of other students. He climbed on to the back of Arcee and revved the engine started the drive to the Bot base. "What took you?" Arcee asked sounding rather annoyed. "I was just talking to Sierra and she gave me her number" Jack answered.

Jack I cant be waiting for you like this all the time, I've got more important things to attend to. You know that" Arcee explained. "Okay okay... so what did you do while I was at school?" Jack asked curiously. "Same as usual.."

"Oh, ok"

Jack then went on explaining how his day went while Arcee listened on. But lately Arcee had been acting strange lately. She had been going through mood swings. Her moods would change as fast as she drives. Every-now and then she would not speak to him, as if she was upset. Jack would excuse this usually sense Airachnids return who caused the death of her first partner. But it had been going on for almost 2 and a half weeks. He hated how she would sometimes take it out on him. He never liked seeing her upset. So he broke the silence.

"Arcee, ive been meaning to ask you"

What is it Jack?"

"Well have you been feeling ok? I mean it seems like somethings been bothering you.

"I'm at war Jack. Don't expect me to be happy all the time"

"No I get that. But c'mon Arcee. I've been with you long enough to know when you act... differently."

"Jack... I don't know if..."

"C'mon Arcee, you can tell me anything" I've basically told you everything there is to know about me so...

"I..."

They were interrupted by the com link ringing. "Arcee here"

Get to the base! Double time! I've just uncovered a new artifact. And Ratchet is raving a lot about it." Bulkhead informed Arcee.

"Its going to have to wait Jack"

Arcee drove twice the speed she normally did. She went almost full throttle and within minutes they reached the Bot base. By the time they got there, the rest of the bots were waiting. Ratchet was having the usual argument of Bulkhead stepping over a cable. Yelling "I NEEDED THAT!"

Ok so whats new?' implored Arcee. Jack was trailing right behind her. "Your just in time to help recon the new coordinates that Optimus decoded." Ratchet explained. "Um. Before you start anything guys, I need to get going. Was a tough day at school." "But don't you want to see the relic?" she asked trying to make him stay. "Sorry Arcee, see you tomorrow. Bye." She gave him a goodbye and the teen ran through the ground bridge portal, getting his phone out as he went. "What's the news Ratchet?" "I wanted everyone here to see this, this one of the most technologically advanced mechanism ever constructed. It is the most amazing..." "Spit it out Ratchet." "OK. This is a gene splicing device. This device can merge ones CNA with another lifeforms biology into almost perfect intersecting patterns effectively it..." Ratchet paused. Everyone but Obtimus looked on with blank stares.

"Hmm well, In simple terms you can take on the form of any being no-matter what species it happens to be. Regardless of size. Unfortunately we do not posses the power to reuse it, so it can only be used once. I am so excited to use it so are there any volunteers?"

"Eh, no offense Ratch but I think I'm okay with my size..." Bulkhead answered

"Beep, Beep, Bop" agreed Bumblebee

Mimic any species regardless of size? Thought Arcee. Now's my chance!". While everyone was arguing about who should test it first, Arcee stepped in.

"I'll do it"

"Really? I mean- excellent lets get this started right away"

He meticulously connected the giant cables leading to the giant container was once used to heal Raph from his injuries inflicted by Megatron's attack. She slowly walked in. A blinding flash of blue light encircled the bot and a hot burning sensation filled her metallic skin. Something felt as if her limbs were being slowly pulled from her joints. Then all went dark...
