Chapter One

Bee was zooming down the road at 95 mph, Knockout right on his tail. Swerving through cars was really difficult at that speed, but the freeway scene really wasn't Bee’s choice; the honks and tire screeches surrounded them, even when the lasts ones faded off into the background.

Two small chips lay on the passenger's seat of Bee’s vehicle form. He heard Knockout's voice behind him through the noise.

“Come back here you little pipsqueak!” He yelled. He was farther behind than he should've been since he took the extra effort to make sure he didn't scrape against any cars.

Bee couldn't help but smirk at that, pushing himself to go even faster. But now that they were in the clear, Knockout was going faster too and starting to gain on him. Hoping to lose him in the city, Bee made a sharp turn onto the off ramp and headed for Jasper, having to slow considerably once he got there, but definitely still way above the speed limit.

He turned down a side road he knew would take him past the school, and then turned onto another road once he got there, successfully losing the Con in the  after school traffic.

“Ugh, get out of the way, Pests!” he heard Knockout shout in frustration when he  could no longer follow Bumblebee.

Meanwhile, two girls walked along the crosswalk; they didn't seem to have any significance to the current adrenaline pumping chase. But this is where things get far more interesting.

“Wow lots of traffic today. And angry honkers too. The whole package.” One of them said looking at the mess of traffic on their left.

“Someone probably tried to get past and roused them all up” the other said, following their friend and checking out the traffic behind them.

They both made it to the corner, looking both ways, about to cross. They stepped out into the street when a familiar sports car rounded the corner. One saw this out of the corner of their eye and quickly pulled herself and her friend back over the curb. Bee slammed on the breaks, losing control of his doors, which flew open as he slammed to a halt.

Without giving it much  thought, the one who had pulled her friend out of the  way got in, followed by her friend, before Bee had a chance to close them again.

“Whoa!” the first girl exclaimed as she noticed the empty driver’s seat. “There's no driver??”

“I want to know first off why we just jumped into this car!!” The other exclaimed. “I don't care if there's a driver or not we can't just jump into someone's car!”

Before either one had a chance to do or say anything else, Bee was hitting the gas pedal to the floor again. It seemed Knockout had managed to get through the traffic, and was roaring towards him once again.

And now he had a couple random humans in the backseat. Great.

The girls cried out in response to the sudden acceleration, and snapped on their seat belts. Smart girls.

Bee pushed  himself back up past speeding and started dodging through traffic once  again, doing everything he could to lose the Con, but Knockout just wasn't giving up!

“:Ratchet!:” he buzzed through his comlink, urgently. “:I’ve got Knockout on my tail and can't shake him! I need a ground bridge!:”

“Alright, hang on just one second,” Ratchet replied. Moments later a ground bridge opened  a few  feet ahead of him.

At the last second, he remembered the girls in the back, and simultaneously slammed on his brakes, unbuckled them, and opened the door, sending them both toppling  onto the sidewalk, unharmed. With that taken care of, he closed the door and sped through the ground bridge, finally back at the safety of the Autobot Base.

Both girls struggled to think of something to say, nothing could explain what they both just experienced. Before either could even get up and try to forget it ever happened the red sports car screeched to a halt where the portal had just disappeared.

“Blast it!” He growled, backing up and evening himself on the street. He noticed the two girls Bee had just flung out of his car and got a wonderfully horrific idea.

He checked through his rear view mirrors to see if anyone was around. To Knockout’s pleasure, and the girls future dismay, it was an abandoned road. His car form rotated around slowly forming upwards into his more prefered form of 30 foot tall Decepticon.

“AAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!” Both the girls screamed, who had already just been questionably traumatized and were not ready for another surprise like this.

“Oh you humans, always having to make such loud, obnoxious noises when you’re frightened.” Knockout complained.

The two girls abandoned their backpacks and started to run as fast as they could, as if they could outrun someone 20x their size.

Knockout gave them a few seconds head start, to make it a little more interesting… for him at least. When  they'd made it about ten yards , Knockout decided it was long enough, and speed walked over to the fleeing humans, quickly catching up and snatching them up in his hands. He frowned in displeasure as they started yelling and kicking at his fresh paint job.

“Hey! I just buffed that!” he  growled, giving them a small shake to get them to stop messing it up.

“Let us go!” one of them annoyingly demanded, still hopelessly trying to get free of his grasp.

“Oh, I'll let you go,” Knockout assured them with an evil smirk. “As soon as you help me get those chips from the Autobots!”

Both girls looked at each other with confused expressions.

“What from the who-now?” One said questionably.

“Stop playing games with me. You can’t possibly tell me you jumped in that car and didn’t know who it was.” Knockout yelled.

They both shook their heads.

“Still no?! Well, I guess we’ll have to do this the hard way.” Knockout smirked, he transformed back into his vehicle mode, both girls stuck in the back seats and also two upset stomachs. "Buckle up!”

The seatbelt’s magically extended themselves a in front of them as if to buckle them up, but instead wrapped around them tightly. So tightly that there was still room left to push the metal part into its intended slot.

“Soundwave, open the bridge.” Knockout ordered to what seemed like nothing. Moments later a portal opened up in front of him, almost identical to the one Bumblebee had recently gone through. Before the girls had a chance to react, Knockout drove through, arriving on the bridge of the Decepticon Warship, Soundwave and Megatron standing next to the control panel.

“Knockout, did you succeed in retrieving the chips from the Autobots?” Megatron asked.

“No, Lord Megatron, unfortunately that bug got away with them- however, I brought a small consolation prize,” Knockout smirked as he transformed, holding one girl in each hand. “Bumblebee dumped these two just before getting bridged back to the Autobot Base. I figured they may hold some significance.”

“Let us go, you giant metal freaks!” the annoying one shouted, kicking him again.

“Hmmm, yes Knockout, I believe these two could potentially provide us with an advantageous ransom for the chips,” Megatron mused approvingly. "Throw them in one of the stasis chambers, but don’t waste the energon in turning it on.”

“Yes, my Lord.” Knockout bowed gently, and then proceeded out of the room towards the stasis chambers.

“This is the worst day ever,” The girl in knockouts right hand complained.

“It’s about to get worse, brat,” Knockout swung back at her. She remained silent.

The doors opened automatically as they approached them, inside were a number of chambers each holding a specific thing. There was a tiny gasp as they passed one holding an angry looking female robot, looking ready to strike, but prevented by her state of being frozen in a glass chamber.

They reached an empty one, Knockout had to transition one of the girls to his left hand with the other so he could activate the hand panel to open their future prison. The chamber finally did open and with it came a billow of smoke. Knockout took no care in putting them in gently and instead threw them in like old shoes. The glass closed, the girls felt a strange irregularity in their chest, like their hearts were slowing. Luckily it stopped, as Knockout pulled a long blue crystal out of the chambers side.

“Wouldn’t want to waste this on you filthy humans,” Knockout sneered, showing off the energon to the two helpless girls. The one that seemed to like yelling at him ran up to the glass and slapped her hands against it.

“Let us out of here you monster!” She shouted, her voice slightly muffled by the barrier. Knockout simply smirked and walked away, the giant door closing behind him. “No! Come back here!”

“Pip, it’s no use he’s gone already,” the quiet one sighed, leaning her back against the wall and hugging her knees.

“Come on, Evilyn, we can’t just give up!” Pip insisted, walking over to her.

“Right, instead we’re supposed to shout at the walls until they come back for us,” Evilyn replied sarcastically, making Pip sigh.

“I don’t know,” she admitted. “But we can’t just sit here doing nothing, can we?”

“Sure we can, Pip. It’s loads of fun.”

“You know, your sarcastic comments are starting to grate on my nerves…”

“Sorry, I can’t help it.” Evilyn apologized, Pip sat next to her on the floor. "Do you think we’re gonna die Pip? Without anyone knowing how…”

Pip stayed silent, thinking this over, “Would you rather die in a boring way then?”

Evilyn managed a soft chuckle, “No, I suppose not. But I would’ve liked it to be a different kind of, you know, ‘not boring’.”

Pip’s face lit up, suddenly remembering something. "Oh yeah!” Evilyn watched as Pip pulled two strange objects out of her pocket, both resembling some kind of memory chip.

“Pip, what are those?!” Evilyn asked, shocked.

“I found them on the ground when we were flung out of that car. I thought they looked interesting so I grabbed them,” Pip answered.

“Pip, you do realized those could be the chips those giant beasts were after in the first place. If they find out you have them who knows what they’ll do to us for lying!” Evilyn stressed her point by raising her pitch at the last few words.

“Oh-” Pip suddenly realized the mess she’d just gotten them into. Without another word, though, she took out her phone, removing the Pikachu case and sliding her fingers over the edges.

“What are you doing now?!” Evilyn asked, getting more and more agitated at Pip’s lack of attempt to realize the gravity of the situation.

Pip didn’t answer and instead continued to move her fingers along the edge till she found the little slit in the phone’s hard covering. She pushed in on it slightly and in response a tiny memory card popped out.

“Pip, you better not be doing what I think you’re doing!” Evilyn was reaching maximum annoyance levels now.

Pip still didn’t answer her, which almost shoved her over the edge, and stuck the card-thingy into her phone. As soon as she did so, it started vibrating and glowing like crazy, making her drop it on the floor. It continued doing so for about a minute, both girls staring at it in shock. When it finally stopped, Pip tentatively picked it up and examined it, Evilyn speechless beside her, staring at the phone like it was some sort of dangerous thing that was evil or something.

“That was so cool!” Pip finally exclaimed, turning to Evilyn, who had a horrified look on her face. “Let’s do it with your phone!”

“ARE YOU CRAZY?!” Evilyn shouted, finally breaking her silence. Pip blinked in surprise at the outburst, but still covertly reached for Evilyn’s phone. “WHAT IF IT’S-”

“You can stop yelling now,” Pip sighed. “I can hear you just fine.”

“Er, right. But, what if it’s dangerous?!”

“What have we got to lose?” Pip countered. Evilyn took this in, sighed, and reluctantly handed over her phone.

It was the same process, but after the flashing lights something different happened.

A nearby Neonian chip has been detected.

Would you like to sync it with this one?

Yes                                            No

“Neonian?” Evilyn said, confused. “What’s that? Some sort of Computer company?”

“Never heard of it, maybe it’s Russian or something,” Pip added, and before Evilyn could even say otherwise, pressed ‘yes’.

“Pip!” Evilyn exclaimed.

A new screen popped up, now on both phones.

What is your desired form of transmitting?

A list of icons popped below the text. All familiar phone apps. Without thinking it over, Pip pressed the one most familiar. The messaging icon. By that point Evilyn was tired of fighting against it.

“Wonder what they do,” Evilyn looked down at her phone, which screen was now back to normal. “Now that they’re… synced?”

“Well, let’s find out,” Pip replied enthusiastically, opening her messaging app and texting Evilyn. “‘I sure wish we weren’t stuck in this stupid container, it’s kinda chilly.’.” Evilyn let out a quiet laugh when she received the text, leaning back against the container- which suddenly was no longer behind her and she instead fell over.

“Oof! What in the life-? How’d we get outside of it?!” She exclaimed when she realized they were now somehow free from their captivity.

Pip’s face lit up, looking down at the text message, Evilyn, and their surroundings all in rapid succession. “Evilyn! Do you realize what just happened?!”

“Not sure, could you run it by me,” Evilyn said, sitting back up, rubbing the back of her head.

“What I just texted you actually happened! That chip turned our phones into some sort of magic Genies or something!” Pip exclaimed, too excited for her own good. Evilyn simply stared at her.

“Are you serious? No way, this can not be real,” Evilyn muttered, not at all sure how to react to everything that was happening. Meanwhile, Pip was coming up with an amazing idea.

“Evilyn! I know what we can do!”

“...what?” She asked hesitantly, not sure if she really wanted to know all that much.

“Why don’t we use our new magical phones to make it so this whole mess never happened?!” Pip was practically overflowing with excitement.

“Well, I guess if it worked to get us out of there, who am I to  say that could never possibly work,” Evilyn muttered, wishing she didn’t have to go along with all this.

“Great! You do it.”

“Do what?”

“Send the message, silly!” Pip rolled her eyes jokingly.

“Oh,  right,” Evilyn looked at her screen and typed. “‘Evilyn and Pip were never kidnapped by the giant robot-cars.’.” However, instead of Pip receiving the message, and text box popped up on Evilyn’s phone.

Warning: this action could potentially destroy the universe. Continue sending message?

Yes            No

“What in the name of life??” Evilyn exclaimed a made up curse.

“What is it?” Pip asked, leaning over to look at the screen, eyes widening slightly when she saw what it read. “What? Destroy the universe? No way,” Without letting Evilyn say anything, she reached over and pressed ‘yes’. This  time the phone vibrated a ton and then another text box popped up on the screen.

Warning:  You are attempting to excessively alter the story. Proceeding will destroy the space-time continuum and tear apart the universe. Continue?

Yes                                   No
