In Sumdac tower. "So then he says I have to move out! I mean, hello! I live here! This is my home. Who does this Porter Powell guy think he is anyway?!", Sari ranted to Serenity on her phone, as she packed her things.

"I don't know who he think he is. But, I think he is a glitch head.", Serenity replied. "No argument here. Chairman of the board. What does that even mean? They should just call him big jerk who thinks he's in charge of everything!", Sari stated.

She then stopped when she saw Powell standing at her door. "Oh, I don't think I'm in charge of everything, young lady. I know it. So, hurry along. I need this space for more research and development to make enough new money to cover what you lost the company, while you were playing at being in charge, Ms. Sumdac. Or can I even call you that?", Mr. Powell smugly said.

"Hey! That's the girl who I adopted as my little sister, Buster! So, if you mess with her, you mess with me!", Serenity yelled out through the phone. "And just because there's no record that I'm Isaac Sumdac's daughter, doesn't mean I'm not! He's my dad and I don't care what you say! Why am I even talking to you?! Come on, Sparkplug. Come on, Tutor bot. Lets go to Serenity. This place stinks!", Sari added.

"Need I remined you that those robots are both Sumdac system's property? Leave them! Hurry on now. The new occupant will be arriving soon to start setting up his R and D facilities.", Powell said, as the elevator doors open to reveal the Headmaster. "That's right, Lammer! The master man with a plan is back.", Headmaster said.

"The Headmaster?!", Serenity called out, getting nervous. Masterson then grabbed the phone from Sari.

"Hi baby, miss me?~ No hard feelings about before?", Headmaster asked her, in a flirty tone. "Hard feelings?! Sari, get out of there!", Serenity growled.

Masterson then threw the phone in the air, as Sari caught it. He then pushed over the tutor bot looking at Sari's old room.

"Whoa, check it. Major cribbage, and it's mine! It's all mine.", Headmaster said. "You can't hire that guy back! He's crazy.", Sari told Powell.

"That, thankfully, is no longer your concern.", Powell said, as he lead Sari to the elevator then closing it. Once Sari made it to Serenity, who was waiting for her outside.

"That maniac didn't hurt you, did he? If he did, he's got another thing coming to him.", Serenity said, as she picked up Sari and looked her over for any injuries. "No, I'm good.", Sari stated, sadly.

Serenity then lifted up her chin. "Hey, how about we go get you something to eat.", Serenity suggested.

Sari nodded as Serenity placed her on he shoulder. After getting her something to eat, Serenity took her to a quiet spot in the park to eat and think.

"I really miss him.", Sari stated, as she let a tear fall down he cheek. Serenity then brushed it away.

"I know, I know. I missed my uncle too when we were here.", Serenity told her. "Is he like a father to you?", Sari asked.

Serenity then thought for a moment. "Yeah. I guess he is.", Serenity answered.

Sari was now quiet for a moment. 'Serenity probably knows what I'm going through better than the other bots do...', Sari thought to herself.

She then moved closer to Serenity, wanting comfort from her big sister figure. Serenity moved her hand around Sari and gave her a small hug.

"You know, if you want to let loose with the tears, it's okay. I won't judge.", Serenity said. "You never let any tears show.", Sari said.

Serenity then leaned down and looked at her little friend. "That's because I have to be strong for the team. For Cybertron. But, when no ones looking, or it's just the people I care about, I cry. And that's okay.", Serenity told her.

Sari then looked up. "Do you ever cry about Optimus?", Sari asked.

Serenity soon looked away. "It's hard to cry when you can't remember what your crying about.", Serenity replied.

Sari looked down then back up at Serenity and climbed up onto her lap. "I don't remember my own mother and sometimes I cry about that.", Sari said.

Serenity looked down at her little friend, as Sari continued. "I cry because I know something special was taken from me.", Sari continued.

Serenity then understood and started rubbing Sari's back. Before either one could continue their conversation.

"Serenity, you need to come down and watch me make a spark stopping speech. For these disgusting organics.", Sentinel commanded, which earned a growl from Serenity. "I don't need to come and watch you do anything, Sentinel. I'm kind of busy.", Serenity told him.

Optimus then came on. "How's Sari?", Optimus asked her.

Serenity felt a sigh of relief come hearing Optimus. "It's always hard. Leaving and having everything you know taken away from you.", Serenity replied.

They were both silent for a minute, but not uncomfortable silence. "If you can, Serenity, it would be nice if you came down for the... Speech. If you can call it that.", Optimus said.

"I don't want to come down and watch Sentinel talk till he runs his voice box sore. I have to deal with a lot of it already.", Serenity told him. "Yeah. But, if you're here, it might go a bit smoother. All the humans really like you and that might help things... Settle better with the humans. But, I understand if you can't.", Optimus said.

Serenity then looked down at Sari. "How about you go get settled in your new room with Bumblebee and Bulkhead and we can talk more about this later.", Serenity said.

Sari nodded sadly, as Serenity called Bumblebee and Bulkhead, who both arrived shortly. Serenity then made her way to where Optimus and Sentinel were.

The photographers were flashing pictures. Serenity transformed and walked up to where the two mechs were.

Optimus stepped aside, as Sentinel grabbed the microphone. "Organics of Earth, Mr. Mayor, and Captain Fanzone. I, Sentinel Prime, speak to you on behalf of our great commander Ultra Magnus who could not be here today because he had more important matters to attend to than to worry about this small underdeveloped planet.", Sentinel announced.

Serenity then choked slightly, as the Mayor and Fanzone looked up at Optimus, who could only shrug. "Which is not to say that we of Cybertron mind helping out you... ah... simple organics. Especially in light of the fact that so far our scanners have yet to detect any Cyber contaminates so on your a... your a...", Sentinel continued.

He then covered to mic and leaned over. "What is it called again?", Sentinel asked Optimus.

"Skin.", Optimus whispered back. The mayor's assistant then leaned over and whispered, "Sorry, mister mayor. I though this was suppose to be a friendly photo opt."

Then, a robotic reporter spoke up. "Prime! Prime!", the robot reporter called out.

"Yes.", Sentinel and Optimus both answered. "Optimus Prime. Is it true that all Cybertronians have no regard for human life and view Earth as little more than a battle ground for the never ending robot wars?", the robot reporter asked.

Sentinel was getting mad at this. "Why you little-!", Sentinel growled.

Optimus then quickly took the mic. "First, let me say what a great honor it is for us to be such welcomed guests here on your planet. We are truly sorry for all that you have been through with the recent Decepticon attack. We understand that with the threat that Megatron's still looming out there fears can run a little-", Optimus explained.

"ENOUGH!", Sentinel shouted out, while pulling the mic away. "You bots will direct your questions directly to me.", Sentinel continued.

"Fine. What do you think of the romantic relationship Optimus has developed with the princess?", the robot reporter asked him. Sentinel then started to growled again.

"Despite what you have seen happen on your small planet, there is no relationship between Optimus and the princess. She can't even remember him. But, I will have you know that the princess and me are a couple.", Sentinel answered. "WHAT?!", Serenity shouted out, transforming and making her way onto the stage, before grabbing the mic.

"I would like to say that I'm not pursuing any romantic relationships at the moment. Our main concern is to try and keep the Earth safe.", Serenity said. "Princess Serenity, what did Sentinel mean by 'you can't' remember Optimus Prime?", the robot reporter asked.

Serenity then hesitated. Optimus then stepped forward. 

"I believe that is a personal issue and should not be discussed until the princess is ready.", Optimus said. Sentinel then grabbed the mic from Optimus again. 

"Yeah. She just doesn't remember him.", Sentinel stated. Serenity wanted to slap him now. 

Optimus was shooting glare daggers at Sentinel. Sentinel then slid his arm around Serenity and moved her over to the other side of him (so she wouldn't hear him) keeping his arm around her, as he leaned over and whispered to Optimus. 

"Don't you ever presume you can speak for me or the princess, Optimus. The last thing we need is some over glorified repair bot shooting his audio pressor off about things he doesn't understand.", Sentinel told him. He then waved at the camera's, as they flashed pictures of him and Serenity together.

"A scrub like you should just smile and wave and stay out of the way.", Sentinel continued. He then turned back to the people. 

"Now, let's get this over with.", Sentinel said. Serenity then moved Sentinel's arm off her and went back.

"What do I do now?", Sentinel asked Optimus. "Well, according to human customs, you shake hands with the mayor.", Optimus replied.

Sentinel then looked down toward the Mayor, who was reaching out with his hand. "Touch an organic?!", Sentinel exclaimed with disgust.

"Unless, you want to pass off such a great diplomatic responsibility to such a lowly repair bot.", Optimus smirked. Sentinel soon grimaced and looked back at Serenity. 

She only motioned with her eyes to the mayor's hand. Sentinel then shook the mayor's hand, as a few photos were taken. 

But, as soon as that was done, he quickly pulled his hand away and started spraying it with disinfectant. "Same old Sentinel.", Optimus and Serenity sighed. 

Back at the Autobot base. "Thanks for taking me in, guys.", Sari said.

"Are you kidding! This is going to be great! It will be one non-stop party!", Bumblebee said happily, as Bulkhead took her luggage. "Yeah, party. I bet Masterson is throwing himself party right now.", Sari told him.

"How could they hire that nut job, body snatcher to work for your father's company anyway?", Bulkhead asked, still cranky about what happened last time. "I mean, he goes against everything my father stood for... My father.", Sari replied, sadly.

"Hey, don't you worry about anything, roomy. Your living with us now. And it's going to be rock!", Bulkhead said. Sari didn't say anything, as she went and sat on the couch.

"We have to do something to make her feel happy and at home.", Bumblebee whispered to Bulkhead. "What do we do to feel happy and at home?", Bulkhead asked him.

They both shared a knowing look, before they took Sari to watch a really loud movie. "Isn't this great?", Bumblebee asked.

Sari just moved off her cushion. "Um... If it's okay with you guys, I'd like to chill in my room a little!", Sari yelled out over the TV.

"Oh, good idea. Your going to love your new room. We fixed it up just for you.", Bulkhead said. But, as Sari made her way to her room, she saw the same loud video.

She then sighed sadly. In Sumdac tower.

"This place totally rocks! This will be a smokie sight for some classic R and D. Total sikeage! I'll have to set up my systems here for for some serious gamage.", Masterson said, sitting in front of the TV. Powell then cleared his throat to get his attention.

"Masterson, I expect great things from you. Need I remind you that it wasn't easy clearing your name over the previous misunderstanding.", Powell stated. "Oh relax, PC! Henry Masterson is in the house, on the scene, pumped and ready for triple action! You name it and I'll deliver.", Masterson said.

"Good, because I plan to pursue the very profitable aspect of the robotics industry that short sighted Sumdac soul similar ignored in the past. Namely military bots, head master units, the whole works.", Powell told him. "PC, you are so talking my langue that it hurts. Hahaha! But, I need a new test subject, a new robot body, the ones I used before and so ten minutes ago.", Masterson said. 

"What about the princess?", Powell suggested. "No dice. I don't think my headmaster unit can fit on her shoulders. But, if I did take her, those two bots that have been fighting over her will come to her rescue. Then, I'll have two bodies and the princess.", Masterson told him.

"What do you plan on doing with the princess?", Powell asked. "What else? Just having a princess in your possession is totally rad!", Masterson replied.

"Getting back on the main subject, which bot do you need?", Powell said. "What I need is one of those newer, cooler bots. You know from outer space.", Masterson told him.

He then looked on the TV to where Sentinel, Optimus, and Serenity stood. Masterson then points at Sentinel. 

"Like him. Perfection! Hahahaha!", Masterson continued. "Hello, Captain Fanzone, I would like to report a Decepticon sighting. Yes, it's down in old Detroit. Yeah, I was so scared. Please do something, please.", Masterson lied, as he called the captain.

"Don't worry, Mam. We're on it.", Captain Fanzone stated, as he hung up. "Mam? I'm so not a mam.", Masterson closed the phone.

"Attention all unites! We have a Decepticon sighting in Old Detroit.", Captain Fanzone spoke into the mic, drawing the attention of Sentinel, Optimus, and Serenity. "A Decepticon sighting? These organics wouldn't know Decepticon from a garbage bot.", Sentinel stated, while nudging Optimus.

He then turned to a garbage bot. "Tell your organic captain that we're going to investigate.", Sentinel continued.

Serenity soon snickered, as Optimus smirks, too. "Um, Sentinel? That's a trash bot.", Serenity said.

"Well, obviously it's a trash bot. I didn't just arrived on this planet yesterday.", Sentinel scoffed. "Um...", Serenity started to said.

"Actually you di-", Optimus tried to tell him. However, Sentinel stopped Optimus from finishing. 

"Never mind, let's go.", Sentinel said, as he transforms driving away like a maniac. Optimus and Serenity looked at each other and shrugged before following.

As they caught up with him. "Serenity!", Sentinel called out, driving between her and Optimus, and slightly bumping them both. 

"How about you drive up ahead with me? Get there first to see a real hero in action.", Sentinel offered. He then drove in front of Optimus, causing him to drive behind them. 

But, in doing this, he drove over a bunch of cars parked on the side of the road. Then, when they came to a traffic light, he drove right through a red light causing a bunch of cars to crash.

Serenity stopped and transformed making sure every one was alright, while Optimus tried to speak some sense into Sentinel. "Sentinel! Red means stop!", Optimus warned him.

"For organics maybe, but I'm in a hurry.", Sentinel told him, then he kept driving. Optimus transformed and looked back at Serenity helping a old woman out of one of the cars.

"Go on with him and make sure he doesn't do anything else that's stupid. I'll catch up.", Serenity said. Optimus nodded then transformed and drove after him.

When Sentinel and Optimus arrived at the spot, Sentinel transformed and pulled a stop sign out of his shoulder plating. "They should really stop putting these on every corner.", Sentinel said.

Then, Captain Fanzone and the rest of the police force arrived. Sentinel then pushed on the top of the car to get the captain's attention.

"You a... Humans will probably be in the way. Better to hang back and let a real Autobot. And don't worry organic Fanzone, I have maintenance bot along so to clean up anything that might get messy.", Sentinel stated. "Make that two maintenance bots, Sentinel.", Serenity said, as she pulled up and transformed. 

"I just finished cleaning up your last mess.", Serenity added. "Ah, Sweetspark!~ Don't be like that. Come on, I'll show you how it's really done, Princess.~", Sentinel purred, as he wrapped his arm around Serenity and pulled her away.

Optimus growled slightly, but followed. The captain looked out the window, as he watch the trio leave. 

"This is why I hate machines. Especially arrogant, full of themselves, giant flirts, machines.", Fanzone commented. As they walked, Sentinel then pulled down his battle mask. 

"Now, let's split up and get this nonsense over as quickly as possible. Serenity with me. I'll make sure nothing happens to you, Sweetspark.~", Sentinel said, as he nuzzled Serenity, who quickly got out of his reach and walked further ahead. "You listen to me Sentinel...", Optimus spoke, as he put his finger in Sentinel's chest. 

"I don't care if you run your audio prosecors about me. But if you ever treat Serenity like that again, I will not hesitate to-", Optimus continued. "To what, Optimus? If you start a fight with me, the princess will see it and what do you think that will cause? She'll only see that part of you, since you erased everything else she remembers of you. Face it, Optimus, the princess is mine.", Sentinel mocked him.

That blew it for Optimus, as he tackled Sentinel and started rustling him on the ground. Serenity then quickly ran over and separated Optimus and Sentinel.

"What the slag, Optimus? Just a little friendly conversation and you pounce on me when I didn't even have my guard up.", Sentinel said, sitting up and rubbing some Energon from his lip. Serenity then moved from Optimus to Sentinel.

"Are you alright?", Serenity asked, wiping some Energon off Sentinel's cheek. Sentinel then captured her hand. 

"I'd be a lot better with a kiss to make the pain go away.~", Sentinel purred. He then stoked Serenity's hand, but she quickly pulled it from his grasp. 

"Optimus? What happened?", Serenity asked. Optimus looked at Serenity and then down at Sentinel. 

"Just like he said. We were talking and I lost control.", Optimus replied. He then turned his back and Serenity went to talk to him. 

But, Sentinel soon grabbed her hand again. "Come on, Princess. Let's get this over with.", Sentinel said.

He then wrapped his arm around Serenity, as he went to lead her away. "Sentinel, we should scrabble our comb links. In case the Decepticons are listening in.", Optimus suggested.

Sentinel then turned to Optimus, pushing his finger in his chest. "What you should do is stick within the scope of your programming. If I need a trash can emptied or a floor mopped, I'll call on my buddy, Optimus Prime. Or should I say Maintenance Prime.", Sentinel told him, laughing as he lead Serenity away. 

Optimus turned and walked in the other direction. "Maintenance Prime. Then, I'll just call him... pombas, gasbait, flirt Prime. Yeah, that's what I should have said.", Sentinel mumbled to himself. 

Later that night, Sentinel and Serenity were still on patrol. "Maintenance Prime... Haha! I've got to save that one in the hard drive.", Sentinel laughed. 

Serenity then moved away and put her hands on her hips. "Remember it for what? To make Optimus feel like he's worthless scrap? He's got a lot of spark.", Serenity said. 

"You forget. He attacked me earlier, Sweetspark.~", Sentinel
