Shadow's POV

I was awaken by Ironhide transforming, I whined in annoyance, I somehow ended up in Ironhide's hand, "Come on we're moving" Ironhide says.

Ironhide then transformed back into his vehicle mode and then opened the passenger door for me.

I climbed in and we followed the others.

Soon we found ourselves driving on the highway, Bumblebee passed Ironhide, but Ironhide passed him back and then drove behind Optimus.

"I want to play bumper cars" I say.

"No!" Ironhide said.

I blew a raspberry at him.

Then finally after awhile of driving we were in Chicago.

"There's a full-on manhunt out of us, so we have some new rules. Anyone who has got a badge is not our friend, we're gonna divide and conquer, you three are in charge of stealing food and the essentials. And nothing else" Cade explains to all of us.

My Mother would kill me if she found out I was stealing!

I smile dangerously, "Bring it on!" I say.

Cade nods at me.

"Chicago KSI headquarters is like a fortress. I'm gonna find a way into their top-secret military wing. Find something to blackmail this company and government. We're gonna get our freedom back" Cade says.

"Move out!" Optimus orders.

We all go separate directions, Bee and Ironhide head towards the store and others go off somewhere else, I reach in the back and start emptying out my duffle bag.

I grab my now empty duffle bag, Ironhide pulls up into a store parking lot with Bee beside him, he activates his human form.

"You're not going in there alone! I'm coming with you!" He orders.

"But... But... Fine!" I stutter/say.

We both get out of his vehicle, my duffle bag folded up, and in the side of Ironhide's leather jacket to hide it.

I watch as Shane and Tessa climb out of Bee, I hear Bee ask Ironhide something but I didn't catch it.

"It's my Holoform! I managed to keep it in tact!" Ironhide growls, "And I'm not letting Shadow go in there alone and get captured!"

"Calm down man" I hear Bee say.

I chuckle and then wave good-bye to Bee, while we enter the store.

The cold AC hits my warm skin, I shiver softly then shake it off.

I then start humming 'Shake it Off by Taylor Swift'

Stupid song!!

I stop humming and get my 'Bring it on' face on.

We get to a place then the stealing starts...

After they stole A LOT of things

We all out of the store happily, I feel my adrenaline pumping, that was more fun then that one time I slid down the stairs on my mattress!

We find an old church building, "Here we are" Hide says, while he drives in front of it.

Once we get inside, I see Drift and Bee, "Hey, I found a whole bunch of boxes of clothes. So, sweetie, you can get some long pants, nice, loose-fitting ones, and lose the short shorts, okay? What'd you guys get?" Cade says/asks.

I get out of Hide's vehicle mode and grab my heavy duffle bag, Ironhide transforms and scoops me up along with the duffle bag.

He then walks over to the table where Cade is sitting at.

Shane and Tessa dump out their bags, Ironhide sits down and sets me down gently along with the bag, I opened our bag and saw some fruit snacks, some candy, granola bars, small cups of cereal.

Note: Take Hide shopping all of the time!

He really grabbed good stuff!!

Pop tarts, bags of chips, soda cans- I was pulled out of my thoughts when I heard Cade complaining.

Not usual

"It's Protein" Tessa says while she sets down a big pill bottle looking thing on the table.

"Look, I said the essentials, okay?" Cade says while he picks up the bottle.

Tessa looks at him "It wasn't easy. We almost got caught" Tessa argues.

Cade looks at Shane and sees mouthwash.

"You stole mouthwash?" Cade asks Shane.

"I like to fresh when I'm making out with your daughter" Shane says.

"No! You're trying to get the bullshit away from your mouth!" I hear Ironhide grumble.

I bust out laughing, everyone looks at me.

They all then ignore me.

Tessa laughs at what her dumb boyfriend said.

"That's funny" she says.

"Not really" Ironhide mumbles.

I watch as Cade gets up and grabs the mouthwash and chucks it.

I watch as it flies across the room and then the lid breaks when I impacts with the ground.

I look up and see amusement in Ironhide's eyes.

I hear Bee do his robotic chuckle, I 'Aww' at the sound.

Unknown to me Ironhide sends Bee a death glare.

"Yeah that's not happening ever." Cade says while looking at Shane then his daughter.

"Ever?" Tessa asks.

"You heard him girl! Ever!" I say under my breath.

Ironhide looks down at me with a small head shake.

When Optimus got back, Cade left with him then after 10 minutes came back, I sit beside Ironhide, who is keeping himself busy with his cannons.

Tinkering with them, I watch him in amusement and out of boredom.

"Yeah, that's good, Bee. That'll get us in." Cade says to Bee who is doing something.

After Bee is done with whatever he was doing, Cade gets into some semi nice clothes and then him and Drift leave.

"A couple times a day, these guys are moving in vehicle shipments into KSI called "scanning." Cade explains when he got back.

Ironhide is now leaving against the wall with his back towards the others, listening but acting like he isn't, along with Crosshairs and Hound.

"Major security all over. Our best shot at getting in is a back classified research entrance. I'm gonna drive in with Bee tomorrow morning." Cade says.

Soon it is nighttime, I ignore to two idiots making out on the couch in front of EVERYONE!

Ironhide looks disgusted by them, "Disgusting! There are other people here! A young child doesn't need to watch that stuff!" Ironhide growls.

Cade clears his throat, "Excuse me. There's no smooching in front of me, okay?" Cade says.

"You're so square! Who even says "smooching"?" Tessa argues.

"Civilized people, who don't make out in front of Primus and everyone!" Ironhide mumbles.

"Ironhide" Optimus scowls in a whisper.

"You were disgusted too!" Ironhide argues back.

Optimus gives Ironhide a 'Knock it off look' which cause Ironhise to grumble.

I chuckle.

"I tell you, no respect." Cade starts, "It's just impossible sometimes." Cade says to Optimus hopeless.

Optimus looks at Cade, "Yeah. I went through that with Bumblebee" Optimus says.

AAWWWWW! Cute moment!

"Almost past it with Ironhide" Optimus adds while looking at Ironhide.

Ironhide grumbles, Cade and I, chuckle.

It was finally time to go to bed!

Ironhide transformed and I climbed in the backseats, I watched as the others did the same, Cade climbed in with Optimus.

Tessa and Shane took the couch.

I feel like singing my mind says.

"When I'm gone~ when I'm gone~ you're gonna miss me when I'm gone~ you're gonna miss me by my hair~ you're gonna miss me everywhere~ oh you're sure gonna miss me when I'm gonna~" I sing myself softly to sleep.

"Goodnight Sweet Spark" I hear Ironhide say softly when I close my eyes and fell asleep.
