It was a normal day in Jasper, Nevada. In Hangar E, the Autobots base, everyone was doing their own thing. The three human children, Jack, Raf, and Miko, were doing schoolwork while the two human adults, June and Agent Fowler, discussed some stuff with the Autobots.
The Autobots, consisting of Smokescreen, Bumblebee, Arcee, Bulkhead, Ultra Magnus, Ratchet, Cliffjumper, and Optimus, were doing their own things.
"Ratchet, how come we don't know that you're a Maximal?" Ultra Magnus asked.
"Well, obviously, you know now." Ratchet responded, sarcastically.
"A Maximal? What's that?" Miko asked.
"A species of Cybertronians that can turn into any animal on the planet, instead of vehicles. But, instead of being able to choose multiple vehicle forms, like us, a Maximal has one animal form, and they can never, ever change it." Bulkhead explained.
"Add in, he has his own human charge, so another human child." Cliffjumper grumbled.
"Wait, what?" Raf asked. "Another one of us?"
