Later...

Zen: hey optimus, can we go home already? If I don't get home by 10, the cops would come looking for me

Jasmine: I'm sure I can get my dad to handle the cops part

Optimus: have you broken the law?

Zen: no, curfew

Optimus: human customs, I have not considered, well then

Ironhide: optimus, we can't let them just wander off, it's too dangerous

Optimus: true, anyone perceived as out allies would be in great danger

Optimus: very well then, bumblebee, you will accompany Jasmine home. Ratchet...

Ratchet: busy

Optimus: Arcee, you will accompany Zen home

Zen: I can protect myself

Arcee: we've seen what you can do in battle kid, you better off with me

Arcee transforms into a motorcycle

Arcee: come on, let's go

Zen hops on and they drive away

Later...

Zen drives in the garage

Just then, grandpa max and grandma verdona walks out

Zen: I can explain

Grandpa max: you better do, how did you even afford that motorcycle?

Zen: it's used, it's abused, it needs a ton of repairs, anyway, my point is, I can't be riding on that bicycle forever

Grandma verdona: hmm, very well then, but this is just a chance to prove yourself, that you can be responsible

Grandpa max: well, at least there's a reason to wear your helmet every time you ride

Zen: sure thing grandpa, thanks

The next day...

Arcee rumbling in the garage

Zen rushes in

Zen: arcee! What are you doing? You'll wake my grandparents

Arcee: hurry, let's go, I need to get back to base, you can watch cartoons back at base with bumblebee

Zen: ugh! Cartoons! I'm 16!

Arcee: leave a note for your grandparents, they worry

Meanwhile....

In a decepticon energon mine chamber

Starscream, the decepticon second in command, walks out

Starscream: Hey, you there, fetch me a sample of that energon

Suddenly, another figure walks out

Figure: starscream

The figure is revealed to be the decepticon leader, Megatron

Megatron: starscream, now that i've returned, I believe I'll be the one issuing the commands

Starscream: of course, lord megatron

Starscream: lord megatron, in your absence, the miners have mined quite a stockpile, under my command, waiting for your definite return

Megatron: wrong strategy starscream, we will show ourselves, no more hiding, no mercy! Now, activate the troops and we shall launch and attack in the city

Starscream: but, lord megatron, you're making a big mistake...

Megatron looks at starscream angrily

Starscream: I mean, of course, lord megatron, right away

Starscream: go! Lord Megatron wants a full scale attack on this planet, blackout, knockout, breakaway, barricade, brawl, bludgeon and sideways, bring the troops and launch the attack!
