It was a beautiful day in Slovenia. Some people might say a perfect day, with that in mind some people decided to set up a comic con in Ljubljana, and one person was having the time of his life.

"Oh, this is going to be so awesome. A whole week of nothing but awesome nerdy delight and even going to cosplay as my favourite character ever."

His name was Mike. He was in his mid-twenties and was currently driving himself to a hotel, where he is going to stay and wait for the con to officially begin.

"Oh, I can hardly wait. This is going to be the best vacation ever."

With that said he drove off to his hotel.


***


I stopped in front of the place I was staying at and quickly checked in.

"Now let's get my stuff inside. And after that, I probably have some time to prepare myself something to eat before I head out to the con. It sure is a shame none of my friends could come, but I guess they can't always have time for me."

With that said I went to my car to unload my bags and bring them inside. After about two hours I was fully settled into my little apartment. "Now with that settled let's go make some lunch." I then went out to see if there are any stores nearby to buy myself some ingredients to make my special lasagna. "Well, times a wasting. I still have to check my costume and after that, it's time for me to go to comic con."

After a nice lunch, I went to check on my costume. I have been building this costume for at least two years and I don't want to get it dirty before I get to show it off at the con. The costume was of Soundwave from the cartoon Transformers animated. I was very excited to show it off, but I sadly didn't have enough money to build Rat Bat, Soundwaves keytar. Oh well, at least I got Laserbeak. Now with the costume check up finished let's get suited up.

The costumes main colour was white. I know that sounds wrong, but I'm using the design from the electromagnetic version of Soundwave since I like the colour scheme allot better. the costume also had light purple details instead of the gold. The rest of the costume was black. Of course, we can't forget the main part of any Soundwave costume and that, of course, is the voice, it is for that reason that I also added a microphone inside of the helmet which is programmed to change my voice to that of Soundwave.

After ten minutes of me fiddling with the costume, I finally got it on and was ready to head out to the con.

"Well, now that I am ready, let's go and show myself off. LASERBEAK TO ME!... Man, I always wanted to say that." Now that I finished my little impression, I picked up my guitar and set off to the con.


***


The walk to the convention centre was interesting, to say the least. You see Slovenia isn't a country known for their outlandish costumes, so I got quite a lot of stares heading my way. I didn't let it bother me too much because I was soon at the con and therefore amongst my own kind, as you could say.

The con was definitely interesting, to say the least. There was everything from comics, to toys, to props and much much more. There were also allot of cosplayers, dressed up anything that you can think off. And when I say everything I mean everything, they were dressed as characters from comic books, TV shows, movies and cartoons. This was definitely going to be fun.

"Hey, can I take a picture with you?" A random person asked me, she was dressed as an mlp character by the name of Pinkie Pie.

"Of course pony. Why would I not allow you to take a picture of me? The move would be extremely illogical." I said in my monotone voice. After that, she took the picture.

"Oh thank you. I'm a real big fan love the costume by the way. Hey, do you have Laser beak or Rat bat?"

"As a matter of fact, I do pony. I have my trusty companion Laser beak."

"Sweet, can you do a pose with him out?"

"Of course I can. Laser beak eject." With that I took hold of my guitar and did a pose for the girl to take a picture. after she took it she said.

"Thank you, enjoy the rest of the convention."

"Don't worry it would be foolish of a bot not to enjoy it have a nice day pony." And with that she left me to my own devices. I sheathed Laser beak to my back and went to the food court to get myself a little snack to tide me over until dinner.

After the snack, I went to check what new comics are on sale. So with that in mind, I went to the market to check things out. After some time of searching, I found absolutely nothing of interest, well I did found some interesting toys, but they were way too big for me to carry and since I didn't want to destroy my costume I decided to pick up at a later time.

"Oh come on how are there no props for this costume what so ever. I mean seriously." But then I noticed a very peculiar stand manned by a guy who was dressed as the merchant from the Resident Evil 4. On the stand, he had a wide selection of hyper-realistic looking props and lo and behold he had a Rat bat keytar, but that wasn't the only thing that he had he also had two more props that looked like they belonged to the Transformers animated universe. Because of that, I went to his table to take a look.

"Hello there merchant it seems that you have found my missing companion Rat bat. May I ask you where you have found him and if you could return him to me." 

"Ah hello there stranger or should I call you Soundwave. Yes, I have your missing companions here and I'm going to return them to you for the right price of course." He said in a slightly scratchy voice.

"Of course merchant, but who are the other companions you are talking about."

"Ah yes." He pointed to two different coloured speakers. One was blue in colour and the other one is black with red highlights. "The blue one is called Frenzy and the red one is his brother Rumble. So how much are you offering for them?"

After some time of thinking, I said. "How about I offer you one hundred and fifty dollars for all three of them."

After that, his face turned into a smile "Sold Soundwave. Enjoy your purchase." After that, I gave him his money and he gave me the props. After I touched the props I felt a little shock and then I felt a weird polling sensation. Then I looked at the merchant and he had the creepiest smile that you would ever see, that of course was the last thing that I saw before everything went black.

"Oh what happened to me and why am I still in costume?" Then I looked around to see where I was. It looked like I was in some sort of forest. "Where am I?" Then I got up and noticed that I could see over the trees. "And why am I so tall?" After that the memories flooded back to me. "So the fanfictions were true. There really is a merchant who sends random people to different universes. So I'm really am Soundwave... Wait that means that I can call upon my minicons. Well, let's try it. Laser beak eject." when I finished that sentence I felt something on my back launched into the air it was my guitar and when it was at the apex of his arc it transformed into its bird form and landed on my forearm. "Squak."

"Hello there Laser beak how are you doing?" He looked at me for a moment and then he squaked at me once more. "Well its good to know that you are okay now return." And then he returned back to my back. "Well that's definitely interesting, but now I hove to figure out how to transform and find out what kind of MLP universe this is." And that's what I did. I tried several different techniques and after about half an hour I finally figured it out it worked like this. I literally have to contour my body to change into that vehicle form. To say that it was uncomfortable would be an understatement. So I did a couple of transwarmups to get this transforming thing down pat. And I did. So with that, I ejected Laser beak and told him to find civilization.

After a couple of hours, he returned and gave me the coordinates for the location of a town. With them acquired I went into vehicle mode and drove off to find civilization. "Oh I just remembered I will be able to meet the main six. Well, this day is just getting better and better, doesn't it?" With that said I reached the city? "Wait, a city. Oh no, I'm in the Equestria girls universe. Well, I will give you that merchant I certainly didn't see this coming." And then I went into town to hopefully find Equestria high school.
> Log 2 "meeting"
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I finally got to town I noticed I checked that I was well and truly in the world of Equestria Girls. Why? You may or may not be asking yourself. Well let me tell you when the people skin is coloured every single colour of the fucking rainbow then you start to think hey this is not earth this is some parallel dimension. Well, might as well see what this city has to offer. With that in mind, I drove off to the centre of town.

This city is fucking big I mean seriously I've been driving around for like three hours and I still haven't explored everything. I'm starting to get a little tired I think that I should park somewhere and take a little nap. Little did I know that would be the worst mistake of my new life because in the middle of my nap I was being towed away and impounded. When I finally came to I was being looked at by a couple of people. After I got my barrings, no pun intended, I was happy and yet I was scared. I was happy because this meant that there is a possibility that I get sold to possibly my favourite DJ, but I was also scared because I didn't know if I can allude these other people for that long. Here is to hoping that I do.


***


It was the beginning of summer and Vinyl Scratch couldn't be happier. She just got her report card and it was filled with straight As. That in at of itself would be a reason to be happy, but she was promised by her parents that if she did get straight As on said card, that she is going to get a new car.

"Man, I can hardly wait to come home and show this to my parents they are going to flip."

"Yes, Vinyl they are going to flip. Like you don't do that every weekend."

That snappy comeback came from my best friend Octavia Melody. She was a grey-skinned girl with a darker grey colouring her hair. She was currently wearing A pair of jeans with a white T-shirt and a black jacket.

"Yeah, when they see this I'm going to finally get a new car."

"Do you even have a drivers licence." 

"Actually I do have one. As for when I got it, I got it last summer."

"Well, I just hope you don't wreck it before I see it, okay Vinyl." She said while having a smirk on her face.

"Okay, Octy I'm going to try and keep it in one piece. Well, see you in a week."

"Wait what do you mean a week?"

"Well, you see me and my family are going on a vacation to China. I'm really sorry that I didn't tell you, but I promise I'll write to you and I'll get you something special."

"Oh okay. Look Vinyl it's not that I'm angry at you, it's just a surprise. You make sure to come back in one piece." She said while having a warm smile.

"I sure will." Then we hugged and I quickly ran towards home.


***


When I finally got home I showed my parents the report cards. To say that they were surprised would be an understatement, but when they finally got their stuff together they decided to tell me.

"Well Vinyl this is certainly a surprise, but we also have to tell you that we cannot go on our trip to China." Said, my mother. She had a very faded light blue skin tone with two tonnes of green in her hair. As for my father he had a light grey skin tone with a red buzz cut.

"Why?"

Then my father said "Well you see my job called me and told me to come back to do some recordings. I'm really sorry, but there is an upside to this you are getting that new car, so how about I take you to the car park so that you can pick out one. Come let's go."

"Yes, let's go." With that said we went out, got into dads car and drove off to the car park. I know I'm going to get a used car, but hey it is still going to be my car. I can hardly wait.


***POV Soundwave***


One hundred bottles of beer on the wall, one hundred bottles of beer, you take one down pass it around, ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall. That was the song that I was singing while I was waiting for someone to buy me. I know that sounds wrong but I really don't care. After about twenty minutes I heard some jingling and a door opening and after some time some voices.

"As you can see we have a huge selection of different cars for sale. When you find what you are searching for please call me."

Oh, look more potential buyers let's see who we got here... Oh shit, that's Vinyl! Well, let's hope she notices me. Oh, who am I kidding she is going to notice me sooner or later... and I'm talking to myself. Well, let's hope for the best. And she's looking and she's looking and she isn't noticing me. How is that possible I mean I'm the cleanest car around, but hey this is Equestria girls so I guess that this is normal.


***POV Vinyl***


"Man there are no good looking cars here, well I guess that's what I get for going to the car par... Wait there's one." It was a beautiful car it was a white Scion xB which was completely pimped out to suit someones musical grove with all the speakers that were on it. "Hey, dad  I found one." My dad was checking some other cars, but he didn't look too pleased.

"I hope you found one that's actually any good because the ones I checked looked like they were meant to go to the dump." Then he looked at the car that I found and was completely surprised. "Wow this one is probably the nicest car that we are going to find here and it's a Scion I think this one would be perfect for you." After he was done checking it he turned to the salesperson and called him over.

"Did you find what you were looking for?"

"My good sir, I think we did how much do you want for this Scion xB?"

"Well if you can figure out how to open it then you can take it for ten thousand dollars. How does that sound?"

"Drop it down to nine and you've got yourself a deal."

"Sold." After that, they shook their hands and went inside to finalize the paperwork.

"Wow, my very own car. I hope it handles good, but why did he say if we can get it opened?" With that, I went to the door and tried to open it and I found it to be unlocked. The inside of the car looked even better the seats were made of real leather which was coloured black. There was also a nice neon blue coloured dashboard. "Man I can't believe this, who would abandon this car?" Then I sat inside and looked what was inside the glove compartment and inside I found the keys for the car. They were very interesting looking. For the handle, they had a weird looking symbol. It slightly resembled a face and was a deep purple colour. It looked something like this.





"Interesting key design, but hey they look cool." And then my father came back.

"Hello kido, oh you opened the car, well you will be delighted to find out that you are now the proud owner of it."

"So can I drive it, dad. Pretty please." I even added the puppy dog eyes.

"Of course. It is your car after all now enjoy yourself and make sure to bring it home in one piece." When he finished talking. I jumped inside the car and turned it on. Then I drove off to see how it handles.


***POV Soundwave***


Man. Who would have thought that you can have such good luck in this world. Now it is time for me to introduce myself. Oh, this is going to be fun.

"Hello there, you are the proud new owner of the Decepticon Soundwave and I will be your new friend."

"What the...!?" then she let go of the steering wheel and I went a little out of control but I quickly corrected us.

"Watch it! you don't want to crash us."

"But you can talk. Cars don't talk. How are you able to talk?" She asked in some panic and since I feared that she would jump out, I tightened the seat belt. 

"Okay I'll tell you, but you are not going to believe me. I am an alien robot coming from a planet called Cybertron, there are of course more of us that are hidden in plain sight, but you, of course, don't have to worry about them because I'm going to keep you safe."

"Wait you are a robot, but how are you a car then?"

"Well owner that's an easy one. I can transform I'm probably going to show you one of these days. For now, though I'm going to ask you what is your name?"

"Uhm my name is Vinyl. Vinyl Scratch."

"Well then Vinyl, drive us home then." And then we drove off towards her home.
> Log 3 "Q and A"
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

After we finally arrived at my house. I quickly got out of the car and then I asked. "So are you going to show me how you look like as a robot."

"Of course Vinyl. The only thing that I need to know is if anyone is  currently inside your housing establishment?" He asked still in that monotonic voice.

First I looked at him dumbfounded, but then it hit me. "Oh, you don't want my parents seeing you. No there is no one home because they are currently at work."

"Okay then." And after that the car started to disassemble and then he started to form into a giant robot and after he finished. He was standing high and mighty and when I say high I mean way high. I live in a two-story house and he's almost as tall as the house."So how do I look." He said while he was turning around.

"Man this is so cool. I have a big alien robot as a car. Hey, Soundwave do those speakers work?"

"Of course they work. Why do you think I'm named Soundwave? Hey, Vinyl do you have a picture of a generic human so that we can talk inside?" That certainly sounded weird.

"Um of course, but why do you need a picture?"

"Well I need a template to make my 'human' mode." He added to that statement by doing the quote sign when he said human.

"Okay just wait here I'm going to go get it." With that said I quickly ran inside and got a picture of my father. Then I headed back outside and showed it to Soundwave. "Will this do?"

"This will be sufficient." And then some orange beam came out of his eyes and surrounded the picture and after a second it returned back into his eyes. "Human mode added to the archive." And after that he morphed again but this time into a human form. When he was finished he was now at my height. He was wearing red pointed sunglasses, a black jacket and some jeans. His hair was cut into a buzz cut and it looked like it was black in colour. As for his skin colour, he was a bright white with some neon blue stripes going down his arms. "Well, how do I look?"

"Well it certainly looks normal but the voice sounds kinda synthesised, but I guess that's only me."

"Okay then Vinyl lets go inside and I'll answer any questions that you might have." With that said I led him into the house. When he came inside he quickly looked around and then he unstrapped something from his back. When I looked again I noticed that it was a pair of speakers, a keytar and a guitar.

"So are you a travelling interstellar musician?"

"You could say that I am." He said while sitting down on a couch. "But I can tell that you have more questions than just that, so sit down and shoot." I did as he said.

"So you said there were more of you. Are there any of them near here?" After that, he looked thoughtful and then he answered.

"No there is no one near here, but there are definitely more in this city. Hey, can I ask you a question?"

"You just did, but yeah." At that, he probably rolled his eyes it was hard to tell with his glasses on.

"Why are you taking this so well? I mean not that I'm complaining, but I thought you would scream a lot more." That made me think.

"Well this is definitely weird, but you see, I'm sort of crazy, or so my girlfriend says, so it doesn't bother me."

"Hm well, that's interesting so you have any other questions for me?"

"What no comment on my girlfriend. Usually when I mention that people look at me funny."

"Well, first of all, I'm not a person and second of all why should I care?" That certainly surprised me, but I guess that it shouldn't since he was right. Then I asked the next question.

"So if you can transform can your instruments change as well?"

"Ah very observant. Yes they do, You want to see?" I nodded. "Okay, then Laser beak, Rat bat, Rumble, Frenzy eject."Then all of his equipment started to change. The guitar turned into a bird. The keytar turned into a bat and the two speakers turned into robot humanoid twins. "So what do you think." Laser beak was perched on his shoulder, Rat bat was on his left side leaning on the couch and the twins were now sitting on the floor their legs crossed. After I took the whole scene in I said.

"This is so cool. Hey, can I take a quick picture." He and all of his friends all nodded and I took out my phone and took a quick snap. "Man Octavia is not going to believe me when she sees this."

"I presume this Octavia is your girlfriend." Asked Soundwave.

"Yup, she's a little stuck up, but is a very good girlfriend."

"Well, I certainly can't wait to meet her." That reminded me of something.

"Hey Rumble, Frenzy what's it like being speakers." They first looked at each other and then they answered in unison.

"Man where to begin. It is fun at times especially when we lay down some sweet beats, but it is a bummer that we cant be out in robot mode. But as long as we can come out at times then we're all good." Well, that was definitely an interesting answer.

"So you two like it when you lay down sick beats." They both nodded. "Then follow me." After that, I went down to the basement or as I call it the recording studio and they all followed me. "Okay guys, welcome to my recording studio. Here is where I record all of my music. So what do you think." After they took the whole thing in Soundwave said.

"Can we record something?"

"I thought you would never ask. Please stand right there." I pointed to the middle of the room. He went there and all of his friends turned into there respected equipment modes, except for Laser beak.

"I'm ready." Said Soundwave.

"Okay then begin." And with that, we started to play some techno music which is how we spent the rest of the afternoon.


***


After we spent about eight hours of us just making and recording songs, we decided to go back upstairs. All of Soundwaves minicons, as he told me they were called, were turned into their respective equipment modes. "That was the best recording session I have ever had. We definitely need to repeat this." But when we came up to the living room we found my parents watching the news.

"There was a huge accident at Equestria labs today. When a giant cockroach attacked. There were no casualties, thanks to some alien robots called the Autobots. Here is what they had to say. "We are not here to invade your world, we are here to defend you from these types of accidents." So with that said, it looks like we have some new protectors in our town. Let's hope that we won't need them anytime soon. With that said I have been reporter Catch and I hope to see you tomorrow." Then the scene changed back to the studio. "Well, it looks like the new Autobots Optimus Prime, Bumble Bee, Ratchet, Bulk Head and Prowl are going to be our new protectors." And after that, my parents turned off the TV and turned to us.

"Ah, good evening Vinyl. Who's your friend over there and what is he doing here so late?"

"Oh, this is one of my clients from school his name is Soundwave."

"Good evening mister Scratch. Sorry if I'm intruding, but we were having a good run. I will be on my way now okay. Good night." And then he went out the door.

"Well good night Soundwave be safe." Then my father closed the door. And after that, I heard a faint sound of him transforming. "So Vinyl how's the new car treating you?"

"Oh, it drives like a dream. We definitely bought the right one. Thanks again for that."

"Well Vinyl you definitely deserved it. I'm still kinda surprised that you managed to get straight As for this semester. By the way, did you catch the news? Man, alien robots right inside our city what luck right?"

"Yeah, luck. Don't you just feel safer now with them around." I said in a sarcastic voice.

"Hey, you two dinner's ready! Come get your grub." That definitely got me excited, I didn't even realise how hungry I was. With that said I quickly ran to the kitchen and sat down to eat.

"So what do we have to eat?"

"It's your favourite, sushi, we decided to get some on the way home since we couldn't go to China. I hope you enjoy."

"I most certainly will." After that, we all sat down and ate in peace and quiet. 

After we finished we all got ready for bed and went to sleep. But I didn't sleep that much because my head was too full of ideas of what I would be able to do now that I have a huge alien robot as a friend. Let's hope I can squeeze all of them into this one week.
> Log 4 "first day on the job"
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I awoke the next morning, I quickly got up and went down to eat breakfast, of course, it took me some time because I Didn't have my morning coffee yet. So it wasn't too surprising that I didn't notice my parents already sitting down at the table.

"Good morning sweetie, why are you up this early?"

"Cant. Talk. Need. Coffee." I said in a sleepy tone. Then I went over to the coffee machine and made myself a cup. After it got ready I sat down on the table and took a sip. "Oh yeah, that hits the spot. Good morning mom, good morning dad. How's it going?"

"Pretty good sweetie, but you still haven't answered my question."

"Oh yeah well since we're not going to China I decided to go to work. No reason for not doing it. Besides, I so or so have nothing to do here."

Then my dad got a cheeky smile. "Are you sure that you don't want to go and drive your car?"

"No dad I don't only want to drive my new awesome car. I actually want to go to work to finish up some of the recordings that we did with Soundwave last night. I think that you can understand, right?"

"Okay then just make sure you don't crash it." And with that said I was able to return back to my coffee. After I finished it I made myself a quick breakfast and then I got dressed, walked out the door and went up to Soundwave.

"Good morning Soundwave. How did you sleep?"

Then he answered in a slightly sleepy tone. "Do you know what a contortionist is, well imagine being that and sleeping literally with your head between your legs, let's just say that I didn't sleep too well" While he was talking I stepped inside of him and started up the car.

"Okay, then big guy you take a little snooze while I drive us to my workplace. Okay."

"Okay" And with that he was silent the only thing that I was heaing was a light snoring sound eminating from the dashboard. After about twenty minutes of me driving I finally reached my workplace and since the streets were full I drove down an empty alleyway and stopped the car.

"Hey big guy wake up we're here."

"Uh huh what? Oh okay then get out and I'll transform." He still sounded sleepy, but he definitely sounded a lot better. Then he transformed into his human form with all of his minicons on his back. Then he stretched and I heard a couple of popping sounds and then he said: "Man that feels so much better."

"Okay, okay, you feel better now. Come on let's go before I'm late."

"Yeah, yeah, I'm coming, I'm coming." And with that, we left the alleyway and made our way towards my shop.


***


"Welcome to Scratch Records. The best place to sate your music needs." The place was basically a large room with instruments bolted to the wall with a counter straight to the right of the door.

"Nice place I definitely didn't expect for it to be this big or that it would be filled with so many different kinds of instruments." He was right about that I had every single kind of instrument from classical to electronic. "Well this is definitely a nice place, but why did you bring me here?"

"Eh I needed some more hands around here so basically I'm telling you that you are the new employee of Scratch Records. Congratulations." After that, he looked thoughtful and then he asked.

"Okay. Do I need a uniform or something now?" 

"No, no, just come with me to the back we'll finish off the paperwork and then we can start the day." And we did so. The paperwork was monotonous, but it needed to be done in case Filthy Rich decided to come by to inspect things. After we finished I noticed that Soundwave was looking at a pair of broken electric drums. Then he walked over to them and picked them up. He inspected them and then he asked.

"Hey Vinyl do you need these?"

"Uhm no they are broken. They have been for a long time. Why do you need them?"

"I want to try something stupid. I'll understand if you need them it's just..." Then I raised my hand and said.

"Just take them. I've been trying to fix them for a while and I was unsuccessful, So you can take them." After that, he smiled and placed them on the table.

"Okay Vinyl are you prepared to see something cool." I nodded. "Then step behind me and watch this." Then I stepped behind him to watch. After that, his chest opened to reveal a glowing core inside. Then a little piece of the core went inside of the drums and then it began to morph. The drums changed colour from a pristine white to a complete black and the same symbol that I had on my key appeared in the middle of them. It looked something like this by the end of this.





After that, his chest closed and then he said. "Welcome to the land of the living Ravage." With that said the drums began to change shape and after he finished, there stood a black robotic panther. It roared. "Good morning to you too. Vinyl meet Ravage. Ravage meet Vinyl." With that Ravage roared again and raised one of his front paws. I shook it and said.

"Nice to meet you too. Man Soundwave this was definitely cool, but now it is time to get to work, so put Ravage away and come to the front desk after that I'm going to open the store for business okay."

"Okay. Well, you heard her Ravage return." Then he returned to his drum mode and attached himself to the bottom of the speakers. "Well, lets go then boss lady."

"That's the kind of attitude that I like. Let's go." And then we both left the room and went to the store part. I lifted up the metal curtains he went to the door and flipped the sign to open and then he went to the storage room and went to cleaning away all the dust. They have been working for about four hours and It was a typical day with not a to many customers with a lot of time to listen to my music, but then I saw Octavia enter the store and she didn't look happy.

"Well look what we have here its misses I'm going on vacation for the whole week. So how was it in China?"

"Look, Octavia, I can explain. My parents had something come up at work, so we couldn't go as for me not telling you. I kinda had a couple of things came up. I had a new client and you know how that goes." After that, I heard Soundwave say.

"Hey Vinyl where do I put this piece of paper after I finish writing everything down." After that Octavia grabbed me by my T-shirt and pull me towards her.

"Who is he?"

"That Octavia is my latest client and the newest employee of Scratch Records, Soundwave." Then I turned to the back room. "Hey Soundwave come to the storefront there's someone I'd like you to meet someone." Then Octavia let go of my shirt and out he came.

"Ah hello there customer my name is Soundwave. How can I help you?" After some time of Octavia checking him out, she said.

"Well, at least he is polite. Hi, my name is Octavia Melody nice to meet you."

"Ah, you're Octavia, well nice to meet you. Vinyl here already told me something about you and I'm glad to have finally met you in person." This was going well. But then she looked at me and then back to him.

"What did she tell you?" Uh oh.

"Well she told me that you two are girlfriends and that you can be stuck up at times, but other then that nothing much." Then she turned to me so quick that I thought her neck was going to snap. After that, her eyes narrowed and I swear she grew a bit taller. 

"So you told him that I was stuck up eh, well let me show you how stuck up I can be." After that, she lunged, but thank god Soundwave stopped her. "Let me go, I'm going to tear her head off!"

"Now, now miss Melody there is no need for violence. Yes, what she said was mean, but that is why I want to see what you are really like and what I'm picking up is someone who gets angry really quick over the smallest of things. Now could you please calm down." After that she did. Then her eyes widened and she quickly apologized.

"Oh, I'm so sorry Soundwave I didn't mean to look like that it's just that I don't like to be called stuck up. I just snapped. I hope that you can forgive for my outburst." Then Soundwave smiled.

"Eh don't worry about that all is forgiven. Right Vinyl?"

I Quickly answered "Yeah sure."

"Well now that we have that settled why don't we go and grab a quick lunch. There I can get to know you better and we can get some food. Kill two birds with one stone. So what do you two think?"

"Sure I'm down for that. What about you Octy?" First, she muttered something under her breath and then she said. 

"Sure I could go for some lunch lets go" Then Soundwave went to pick up his backpack made of minicons and then we were out the door and went to Sugar cube corner.

***POW Soundwave***


Man, this is awesome. I mean how many people can say that they have met the Vinyl Scratch and Octavia Melody. I just hope nothing bad happens. Dang it I just jinxed myself didn't I. Man I'm a freaking robot and still find ways to fuck up. Oh well.

"Hello, earth to Soundwave you still with us." That snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Uhm oh sorry I kinda spaced out there. Could you repeat the question?" 

"Octavia here asked you where you are going to school?" 

"Oh that. I'm going to go to Canterlot high as a transfer student. This semester in fact." Looking back at it, that was a pretty dumb way to connect myself with the Equestria girls mythos, but I guess I'm just going to have to roll with it.

"Really this semester which school did you come from then?" Ah, come on think which school exists here. After some thinking it hit me.

"I'm from Crystal prep. I decided to transfer because there is allot more freedom here than there." After some glares from Vinyl and mouthing that we are going to be talking about this Octavia said.

"Oh I do agree their dress code can sometimes be a real hassle, that is why I transferred as well. But I never saw you there." That made me panic for a moment, but then I figured out an excuse.

"Well back then I probably had braces on my teeth. I also had a more grown out and calmer hairstyle, so you can see why I look so different." I was pretty proud of that excuse it was virtually fool proved.

"Ah that explains it, but we are going to have to continue this conversation after we order because we have arrived." And she was right we were in front of Sugar cube corner and it was extremely disappointing. It didn't look like the gingerbread house like in the show, it looked like any old two story house.

I said. "Well, lets go inside." And then we went inside. When we opened the door we heard a little bell chime on top of the door. When we entered I was hit with the smell of baked goods and they smelled delicious. Of course, I wasn't the only one, because there was a huge ass line. 

"Well, you guys go find a both and I'm going to go order us something." Said Vinyl. I and Octavia both nodded and went to find a both. After a short while, we found one in the corner of the bakery. So we sat down and waited. Two minutes passed in silence, but then I hard Octavia ask.

"Soundwave I notice that you have a lot of different instruments with you, are you a musician and if so what kind of music do you enjoy?" She said while pointing at my backpack.

"Ah, my instruments... Yes, I am a musician as for what kind of music I enjoy and make. I would say that that would have to be techno."

"Interesting choice. I personally enjoy classical music, but that is mostly because I play the cello."

"Ah, so you are a classical player. Do you play in an orchestra?" 

"Yes, I play in the Canterlot orchestra." Then I decided to ask something weird.

"What's the name of your cello?" After that, she looked confused.

"What do you mean?"

"What did you name your instrument? Why don't I give you an example." With that, I reached for my guitar minicon. "Here is my guitar his name is Laser beak... Do you get it now?" After that, I think she got it.

"Oh no, My Cello doesn't have a name. Why do you ask?"

"Well, I think of my instruments as my friends, since they all helped me through a lot of tough times, so after some time I just gave them names." Then Octavia seemed like she was thinking of something.

"Hm I guess your right. I'll think of a name for my cello, but in the meantime how about we change topics, what do you think of the alien robots that are now living in this city?" She asked.

"Well I don't really mind them, but it is interesting to know that there is more sentient life out there in space."

"Yeah, I guess your right." Then we heard an explosion and a robotic voice yell out.

"You will never get Grimlock alive Autobots."

Then three giant metal dinosaurs sped past the corner with five robots chasing them. "Well, that definitely looks dangerous." I thought. "This could be my chance to help them out."

"Hey, Octavia I need to go to the bathroom be back in a few minutes."

"Okay just make sure to come back quickly." With that, I went to the toilet of course not forgetting my minicons.

"Okay, lets jump out a window and go help the Autobots." And I did so. Thankfully the window led to an alleyway where I transformed into my robot mode. Before I stepped out I made sure to change my symbol from a Decepticon one to an Autobot one since I wanted them to trust me. With that done I changed to my car mode and drove off after them.

It didn't take me long to catch up with them, but they didn't look good. The Autobots were in a pile and were about to get turned into slag. So I didn't waste any time and rammed myself directly into the Dinobots.





"Hello there Dinobots it's nice to meet you. The name is Soundwave and you just got smashed." After that I retreated in front of the Autobots and transformed into my robot mode.

"Destroy sound bot for scratching Grimlock." He yelled out and charged at me. 

"I don't think so." With that I pulled out Rat bat and played a strong tone that knocked him and the other Dinobots back. They tried again, but this time I played a stronger tone which knocked them back and momentarily disoriented them. Then I turned around and asked "Are you guys okay?" They first looked stunned but then Optimus threw his axe right past my head and into the flying ones face.

"Okay questions later, first we have to take care of these Dinobots in the meantime Soundwave, make sure to watch our backs." Said Optimus. I nodded and concentrated back on the fight.

The Dinobots got back up and then Grimlock said. "Me Grimlock destroy loud one you two take others." The other two both screeched and went to attack the others and that left me and Grimlock alone.

"So Grimlock why don't you transform and fight me like a real bot huh." After that he transformed and pulled out his flame sword.

"Now Grimlock destroys the loud one." With that, he launched himself at me. I had barely enough time to grip Rat bat like an axe before he struck thank god I did or I would have gone flying. Then I grabbed Laser beak and struck him over the head. "Ow, where did loud one get another axe?"

"Oh that is not the only thing I have. Rumble, Frenzy, Ravage eject!" Then they all detached from my back and launched themselves into the air where they transformed. Then Grimlock noticed Ravage and screamed.

"Ah get the evil cat away from me." That gave me an idea.

"Okay I am going to get him away if you promise to obey the Autobots. Do we have a deal?" I put Laser beak and Rat bat back on my back and extended my right arm. Grimlock first looked at my hand then at Ravage and then back at my hand. Then he yelled out.

"Dinobots to me!" Then he took my hand and said. "Loud one Grimlock promises to obey you and only you, so will the other two." 

"Okay then Grimlock your first order is to stay with them. I pointed at Optimus and his gang. "Until I say otherwise you understand." He nodded and I recalled Ravage, Frenzy and Rumble. Then I heard Optimus say.

"Hey, where do you think you're going."

"Look we can talk tomorrow now I have some important business that I need to finish. So can you tell me where your base of operation is?" Then Prowl stepped forward and opened a holographic map of Canterlot. Then he said.

"We are located here in the old abandoned building." He pointed to an old looking building. I committed it to memory and said.

"Okay then see you tomorrow." with that I transformed and drove back to Sugar cube corner. When I arrived I quickly changed to my human form and jumped through the window and went back to our booth. Vinyl was already there and she looked displeased. "What?" She only pointed at the TV. There I was battling the Dinobots. Then it clicked. I looked back at Octavia to find her to be completely wide-eyed. "Now Octavia don't worry I'm not going to hurt you nor am I going to hurt Vinyl. Yes, I am an alien robot and yes I am the only one of my kind that can change into a human form." With my explanation complete she looked a little better.

"Okay then Soundwave, I guess if you wanted to hurt us you would have done it a long time ago. So why don't  you sit down and enjoy these delectable milkshakes." Oh yeah, I didn't even notice them.

"What flavour?" I asked. Then Vinyl answered.

"Choco-mint. I wanted to play it safe so I got you something that is very popular. I hope I chose correctly."

I just smiled. "This is my favourite flavour." Then I took a sip and found out that it was absolutely delicious. Then I remembered what I said to Optimus. "Oh yeah Vinyl before I forget, tomorrow we are going to the Autobots headquarters to talk to them." That almost made her take a spit take... almost. 

"Are you serious? We are going to meet those robots?" I nodded. "Sweet. Hey, Octavia you coming too?" She looked pensive for a bit, but then she nodded.

"Okay then meet us at Vinyls records tomorrow at two then." After that, we returned to our drinks and talked about menial things for the rest of our lunch break.
> Log 6 "meeting the team"
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next morning went along the same way. The only thing that was off about it, was that Vinyl was up earlier than yesterday.

"Um good morning Vinyl. Why are you up so early?" She stepped inside me and then she said.

"Oh I couldn't sleep tonight, because we are going to be meeting giant alien robots, so you can probably understand." That of course was true because I didn't sleep that much either.

"Yeah I understand. Hey on the way can we grab a couple of doughnuts from Sugar cube corner? I'm a little bit peckish." Then I swear I could see her grin.

"Oh, are you sure you don't want them for the taste?" She got me so I sighed.

"Can you help it? The sweets that they make are freaking delicious." Then she started me up and we went on the road.

"Yeah, I guess your right. We'll go just make sure that we go and meet the Autobots right after." After some time of me pretending to think she said. "So we have a deal?"

"Yeah we are going to go. With that said we drove off towards Sugar cube corner. When we finally reached it we went down an alleyway she jumped out and I transformed into my human form. "So do we have anything important to do today or do we just go to the store and wait for customers."

"Nah, we have some instruments to fix up or tune up. So with that, we have a lot of work to do. So lets quickly get our breakfast and get to the store." Putting words into actions. We quickly went in, got our treats and made our way to the store.


***


After some time of us meaning me, Vinyl, Ravage, Laser beak, Rat bat, Frenzy and rumble working on our separate projects I heard Vinyl ask.

"Hey Soundwave how come you and your minicons are so good at fixing electronics?" Instead of me answering Rumble said.

"Well believe it or not, but we were fixing electronics since we were born. It is what we do best." Then he went back to his guitar and Frenzy continued.

"Besides these instruments are nothing compared to some of the tech on Cybertron." Then he also returned back to his work.

"Do you miss your home?" That made me think for a moment and then I answered.

"Well yes and no you see when I left my home there was a huge war going on between the Autobots and Decepticons that is the reason I don't want to go back, but I also do want to go back because I really miss all of my friends. So you can see my dilemma here."

"Yeah, I guess I do." She said. After some time we heard the front bell go off. "Oh that might be Octavia I'll go check while you finish off back here. Okay." We all just nodded and then she left the room. I and my little pals were almost finished with our separate instruments and were about to screw them back together when Vinyl and Octavia both walked in and when the later saw my minicons she jumped back and screamed.

"What are these things?!" After we all finished putting our instruments together, Rumble and Frenzy said in unison.

"Hey we are not things were minicons." After that Laser beak and Ratbat landed on their shoulder and punctuated the statement by squawking and screeching, after that Ravage joined the scene and growled. Since I didn't want to see a fight break out, I stepped between them and said.

"Okay guys break it up, let's get you introduced. Octavia these are my minicons Laser beak, Rat bat, Rumble, Frenzy and Ravage." I punctuated my name calling by pointing out each bot. "Guys meet Octavia." Then they all waved at her and  Ravage even stepped up to her and gave her his front paw. Then she accepted it and said.

"Well it's nice to meet you all and sorry for that little outburst. It's just that I've never seen you and I don't take too well to surprises."

"Eh don't worry. All is forgiven." Said the twins and then they transformed to their respective instruments and turned into my backpack.

"Well I know why you are here, so let me get to the back alley and then I'm going to meet you in front of the store, okay." And with that, I went out of the store to find an alleyway. After I found it I transformed and drove myself to in front of the store. "Well hop on in." Then I opened the front doors and waited for them to get in. Vinyl, of course, got in with no problem, but Octavia had a couple of problems. "What are you waiting for? Jump in."

"Well I would, but doesn't it feel weird carrying someone inside you?" She asked.

"Yeah it does, but in all actuality, it feels like I'm carrying you on my shoulders. Now get in before we're late." With that said she slowly made her way inside and then we were off to get to the Autobot base.


***


After some time of us driving, we finally arrived at a cancelled demolition site. It was a huge complex coloured a kinda faded yellow and in front of it we saw the Dinobots standing like statues. After taking notice of that little fact I drove us inside the building.

"Hey guys. Here I am ready for my interrogation." All of the Autobots then turned to me and after that, they gathered on the makeshift couch that was set up in the living room. "Oh yeah and before I forget I brought some friends along who really wanted to meet you. With that Vinyl and Octavia stepped out of me and I transformed into my robot mode. "I hope you don't mind." Then Optimus stepped up and said. 

"No, we don't mind now before we start let's introduce ourselves my name is Optimus, the big guy over there is Bulkhead." Then he waved and said.

"Sup." Then the yellow one said.

"Hy my name is Bumblebee. Nice to meet you." Then the guy who looked like a ninja said.

"It's nice to meet as well, my name is Prowl." Then he extended his hand to shake and I of course did. After that the last one stepped forward he looked a little old, but he still looked like he could kick my ass.

"Hy the name's Ratchet." And after that, we heard a little girls voice say.

"Hello, there my name is Sari." She appeared on Bumble bee's shoulder. "Who are you?"

"Hello everyone my name is Soundwave and these are my two friends Vinyl Scratch and Octavia Melody. Then they both waved.

"Hiya." Said Vinyl.

"Nice to meet you." Said Octavia. Then Optimus said.

"Okay now with the introductions out of the way, let's sit down and talk." With that said I sat down crossing my legs while picking up both Vinyl and Octavia and placed them on my legs.

"Okay then lets start. What do you want to know?" Then Bumblebee asked.

"How did you get to Earth?" Okay, then time to put my lying skills to the test.

"I got here in a spaceship. What do you think?" Then Ratchet asked.

"How long have you been on this planet."

"Well in an active way I was here for about three days. As for in stasis I don't know and I honestly don't care." Then Bulkhead asked.

"Hey, how come we couldn't get a reading on your Autobot signature."

"I jammed my signal so that I wouldn't be followed by Decepticons. Can I ask a question?"

"Yes, you can." Said Prowl.

"Were the Dinobots any trouble?" Then Optimus dragged a hand down his face and answered.

"They were well behaved it's just that they kept on fighting with each other and we still don't know what the other two are named."

"Well then it's time that we wake them up and name em." With that I picked up Vinyl and Octavia and placed them on my shoulders.

"Hey wait I have a question. Why do you transform?" Asked Vinyl. Then Ratchet said.

"We transform to move around faster, does that answer your question," he said in an annoyed voice.

"Hey, you don't have to be so mean about it." With that said I quickly made my way out. I stepped up to the Dinobots and poked Grimlock. He woke up.

"Me Grimlock destroy oh hey loud one you have returned Dinobots wake up." With that said he hit the other two and woke them up.

"Okay then guys, since you two seem to not have names I'm going to give you names okay." They both nodded and I thought about their name from the shows. Then it hit me and I pointed to the triceratops. "You are going to be named Slug." Then I pointed to the pterodactyl "And you are going to be Strafe." They both nodded at their new names. "So do you two talk or..." They both shook their heads. Then Sari said.

"I wanted to fix them up, but they didn't allow me to do it."

"Okay then Slug, Strafe sit down and let Sari fix you up we can't have you be broken now can we." With that they both sat down and let Sari do her thing. After they were both fixed I asked them. "So who are you two?". Then slug said in a deep voice.

"My name is Slug and I'm a Dinobot." Then Strafe said in a high pitched tone.

"And my name is Strafe and I'm also a Dinobot."

"Good then, now with that sorted, Vinyl, Octavia do you have any questions?"

"No, not really." Said Vinyl while she looked at Ratchet.

"Well, I have a question. Do you have any minicons?"

"Minicons eh. No, we don't. Wait do you have them?" Asked Ratchet.

"Yes I do. I have five. They are quite useful in certain situations." With that said I noticed that it was getting dark. "Okay then guys I would love to stay and chat, but me, Vinyl and Octavia need to go home." Then Optimus stepped forward and said.

"Okay, then Soundwave. Will see you tomorrow then." Then he gave me his right hand and I shook it. With that said I transformed into my vehicle mode and drove off towards Vinyls home.

*** POW Vinyl***


The next morning something very interesting happened to me. I finally got a call to do a babysitting job. By who you may ask? By a mister  Sumdac. Yeah a very weird name, but hey it's extra money that I will be able to use on my gigs. Now I only have to wait until seven p. m. "What to do, what to do... Oh yeah, mom and dad are at work maybe I can get Soundwave inside and we can play some video games. Yeah, I'll do that." With that in mind, I went outside to wake up Soundwave. "Hey, Soundwave wake up," I said.

"Uhm five more minutes mom." He mumbled.

"No, you can't have five more minutes. I'm getting the hose." With that, I stepped into the garage hooked up the hose to the tap and stepped outside. "Okay, Soundwave one last chance for you to wake up before I use this. So wake up."

"Leave me to rest." He mumbled.

"Okay then, but don't tell me I didn't warn you." With that said I turned the hose on and I sprayed him. The effect was immediate he screamed and then he transformed into his human form and said.

"I'm up. I'm up. Now please stop the water." When he said that I turned off the water and went to the garage to put everything away.

"I'm sorry Soundwave that I had to wake you up this early, even though its already ten a. m., but I need to tell you something important." While I was saying that he was trying to dry himself off. Then I went inside the house and got him a towel.

"Thanks. So what's so important that you needed to wake me up so early." He said while using the towel to dry himself off.

"Well, we have a babysitting job today at seven p. m."

"Really a babysitting job, well it is true that I don't have anything else to do, but don't we have anything better to do." He said in a whiny tone.

"No we don't and besides we're getting paid for it. Now let's go inside and play some video games." That seemed to have changed his mind.

"Okay then I'll go with you, but only if we get a fifty-fifty split." Then I pretended to think.

"I was thinking more along the lines of eighty twenty split." Then he looked shocked. "You know I'm kidding, of course, I'm going to make it a fifty-fifty split. So you want to go and play some video games." That seemed to have calmed him off.

"Of course as long as Rumble and Frenzy can play as well."

"Sure I think I have some four player games. Let's go." With that, we went inside the house and played video games until it was time for us to go.


***POW Soundwave***


"Yeah, almost and bum!" Said Frenzy. We were playing Super smash bros. On the Nintendo 64 and we just got our asses handed to us by him.

"Man bro your to good at this game." Said, Rumble.

"Nah it's just that I picked the character that best works for me." Then Vinyl said.

"Hey, guys it's time that we head out." She pointed towards the clock for emphasis.

"Okay then Rumble, Frenzy return." Then they transformed and returned to me. "Well then let's go," I said while going to the door.

"Alright then." Said Vinyl. When we both got outside I transformed into my car mode and waited for Vinyl to get in. When she did I asked.

"Hey where are we even going?" When she put her seat belt she answered.

"We're going down to mister Sumdacs house on Evergreen street." Oh, so we are going to babysit Sari. Well, this is going to be fun.

"Okay then let's go." I said. Then I started the car and we were on our way. After about twenty minutes of us driving, we finally arrived at the right address. The house was coloured a strong grey, with a black roof and large windows. It was also three stories tall.

"So do I transform and come with you or do I stay here." After some thought she said.

"No you are coming with me no point in you staying outside now is it."

"Yeah I guess your right." With that said she stepped outside and I transformed. When I finished that we both stepped up to the door and I rang the doorbell. After that, we waited for a minute and then the door opened revealing professor Sumdac. He looked exactly like in the show.





"Ah hello, you two must be the babysitters. I'm mistered Sumdac it's nice to meet you." Oh, this is going to be fun.

"Hello there mister Sumdac my name is Soundwave and this is my friend Vinyl. It's nice to meet you as well." I said.

"Well I would love to stay and chat, but I have some very important business that I need to attend to at the lab." With that, he went to his car, but before he sat inside he said oh yeah Sari needs to go to bed strictly at nine. No sugar and no junk food before bed." With that said he stepped into his car, but then he seemed to remember something because he rolled down his window and said. "Oh before I forget I will probably be returning at about eleven. Goodbye and goodnight." With that he started up his car and drove off to god knows where.

"Well then let's go and meet our charge for the evening." With that, we went inside the house and found Sari sitting on the couch. When she noticed Vinyl she asked.

"Vinyl you are my babysitter and who are you?" She said while looking at me. Let's play with this.

"Oh, Sari you wound me. How could you have forgotten your pal Soundwave?" I said in a dramatic voice. After that, I changed my voice and said. "Or does this jog your memory." After that I swear that I saw a light bulb turn on over her head.

"Soundwave how are you looking like a human I thought that you couldn't do that."

"Well, I'm special in that way and let's keep it on that. So what do you want to do?" I asked.

"We could play some board games. I try to play them with my dad, but he usually has no time." 

"Alright then Rumble, Frenzy eject." With that said they both transformed and appeared next to me.

"Hello, boss. Hey, where are we." They both said in unison.

"Well we are going to play some board games and you know the more the merrier."

"Okay then, what are we playing?" They both asked. Then Sari left the room and returned with a stack of board games. Then she set them down next to a table and said.

"Well I have a huge selection so what do you want to play?" I took a look at them and picked one out.

"Why don't we play The aMAZEing labyrinth?"

"Oh, that's a game I always wanted to play." Said Sari. Then Vinyl said.

"Okay then let's play it." And after that, we sat around the table and played.


***


After about two hours of us playing board games, we sent Sari to bed. That, of course, was not met without any protest. "But I'm not tired yet." Then Vinyl said.

"Well, you see your father said that we need to get you to bed by nine so please be a good girl and go to sleep so that we don't get into trouble." Then I said.

"And besides if you don't get your rest then you won't grow up to be big and strong." With that, we arrived at her room and put her to bed. "Now you go to sleep. So goodnight."

"Okay, then goodnight." With that, I closed the door and we went downstairs to wait for mister Sumdac.

"So what do we do now?" Asked Vinyl. 

"Well, we could play another board game," I said while pulling out a game of Scrabble.

"Alright." With that, we sat down and played. When the clock finally hit eleven we heard the door open and then we heard mister Sumdac say.

"Hello, I'm back."

"Ah good evening mister Sumdac did you finish what you needed to do?" Vinyl asked.

"Yeah, I did. What about you did Sari cause you any trouble?" then I said.

"No, she was an angel." 

"Well okay then let me get your pay so that you can go home and go to sleep." With that said he went to the kitchen to get our pay. After a minute he returned and gave it to us. "Here you go, now enjoy the rest of the night."

"Thank you mister Sumdac and if you need a babysitter in the future then don't hesitate to call us again." Then we said our goodbyes and went outside. After he closed the door I quickly transformed into my car mode and we drove off towards home. "Well, that was fun." Said Vinyl. "But tomorrow I have to go back to school." Then she sighed.

"Well I'm going with you so it won't be that bad." 

"How are you going to go to school with me." She asked me.

"That is going to be my little secret which you will find out tomorrow." With that said we drove towards our home.
> Log 8 "First day of school"
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next morning I was awoken by someone opening my door. "Huh who's there?" I quickly asked.

"Ho there Sound, it's just me Vinyl." She said.

"Oh sorry Vinyl you just startled me. So why are you up this early?" Then she started up my engine and she answered.

"Well, we need to go to Octavia and pick her up and then we need to go to school. Speaking of school are you going to tell me what you did to get into school." She asked.

"You know what. I'm going to tell you right after we get Octavia. What do you say, can you wait until we get to her house?" After that she looked to be in thought.

"Okay, then I'll wait." And after that, we continued our drive to Octavia's place. After about five minutes of us driving, we finally stopped in front of a white coloured house.

"Is this the place?" I asked in an inquisitive tone.

"Yup and right down the street is our school so you can transform and then we can go."

"Alrighty then." After that she jumped out of me and I transformed into my human form. When I finished, I dusted myself off and we both went to the front door, where I rang the doorbell. After that, we heard some shuffling come from inside and after some time the door opened to reveal Octavia.

"Oh, good morning Vinyl. Soundwave." She said.

"Good morning to you as well Octavia. I hope we didn't interrupt you." I asked.

"Oh no I just finished breakfast. Let me get my bag and then we can go." With that said she disappeared inside and after a minute reappeared. "Okay then let's go." After that, we made our way towards the school.

"So are you going to tell me now?"

"Tell you what Vinyl?" Asked Octavia. Then I decided to answer.

"Well she wanted to know how I'm going to school with you and to answer it I'm saying only this. I am your cousin." Then they both looked confused and then Vinyl asked.

"How are you my cousin and how does that answer my question?"

"Okay, then I'll explain. It all started last night when we went babysitting, since you know I'm basically a walking computer I decided to send an e-mail to the school. In that e-mail, I wrote that I am an exchange student from Crystal prep and am planning to join Canterlot high. In that same e-mail, I wrote that I am also your cousin. Does that answer your question?" After I finished my little explanation she looked to be in thought for a moment and then she smiled.

"So basically I'm related to a giant alien robot. That is awesome."

"Um, I'm not sure about this you two. Why if they investigate you at that school? Won't you get in trouble?" Asked Octavia in a worried tone.

"Don't worry I thought of that as well so I made a dossier at their school so that it looks like I went there." With that said we arrived at the school.





In front of the school, the two principal was probably waiting for me to arrive. When she finally noticed us she started walking towards us. "Okay, now enough about that we have company," I whispered to them and after that, the principal reached us and addressed me.

"Hello, you must be Soundwave. My name is principal Celestia and I am here to personally welcome you to Canterlot high." Then she extended her hand and I shook it. "I hope that you will enjoy your stay here." Then she handed me the file that she was holding and said. "In here you have all that you are going to need to attend this school. Now get ready for school." With that, she left. I opened the folder and in it, I found the school schedule, my locker combination and on the bottom of the stack of papers I found the rules.

"Okay Vinyl does this place have a library? I need to check all of this." I asked.

"Sure follow me." With that said I put the folder in my backpack and we made our way into the school.

After we finally reached the library we quickly made our way towards a table. Once we reached it I opened my bag and pulled out the folder that I got and went to fill out all the paperwork.

"So you need any help with that. We have about twenty minutes until the first class start..." But by that point, I already blocked her out and went completely machine. After about one minute I was completely done. Then I noticed her face.

"What?" Then Octavia said.

"Um, Soundwave. Your pen is on fire." When I turned around I quickly shook out the fire and then I put the pen back into the backpack. "You know what I'm not going to even ask how that's possible. I'm just going to accept it and ask. Do you want to see the rest of the school?" I put the folder into my backpack and said.

"Sure I so or so need to find my locker." With that, me and Octavia left while Vinyl still looked at the spot where I worked. After we noticed that she wasn't following us I went back to her and shook her.

"That was awesome." She said.

"Yeah it was, now let's go, this school is big and we don't have a lot of time to explore it," I said while pushing her out of the library.

"Hey, you don't need to push I can walk on my own." With that said I stopped pushing her. After that, she looked like she had an idea. "Hey Sound, do you think we can set your fingers on fire if you play your keytar too fast?"

"Vinyl we are not setting anything on fire." Said Octavia with a frown. "Now let's go before she gets even more stupid ideas." With that, we left the library and went to explore the school. The school's layout was pretty simple three halls that were set up in a U formation and on the sides of those were the doors to the classrooms. After we finished our short tour we heard the bell go on signalling the start of first class.

"Well, thankfully we concluded the tour right where we need to be for class." Said Octavia. When we entered the class I quickly found an empty seat and took it. Yeah, it was in the back, but I actually prefer it that way. After that, the teacher got inside. He looked allot like Sombra. He had the same hairdo and the same skin colour as the original one. The only difference was that instead of wearing his armour, cape and crown, but was instead wearing a three-part black suit, with a white undershirt and a red tie. After I finished my observation he started to speak in his signature deep voice.

"Hello, class. My name is Sombra and I'm going to be your new homeroom teacher. Now before I start with the news, I need to tell you that we have a new student joining us, but let's let him introduce himself. Soundwave would you please come up here." With that said the whole class turned to me. I just got up and went to the front of the class.

"Hello, there class. As you probably already know my name is Soundwave and I don't have anything special to tell you about myself. I'm just your average Joe going through life. The only thing that is worth mentioning is that I'm a musician and that is about it. So does anyone have any questions?" Sadly no one raised their hands.

"Okay, then Soundwave could you please sit down now?" Asked Sombra. Then I just returned to my chair. Out of the corner of my eyes, I swear I saw Sunset Shimmer smirk and it was unsettling. With that, I sat down and concentrated on the announcements.


***


After the bell rang again I quickly picked up my backpack and quickly made my way out of class, as to not get in contact with Sunset. After I was far enough away I heard Vinyl yell. "Hey, Soundwave wait up." I stopped and waited for her and Octavia to catch up. "Why did you run out of class so quickly?"

"It was that girl with the mustard and ketchup hair. I think she has something planned for me and I didn't like it. As for how I know? Let's call it intuition." After that, they seemed to get it. Then Octavia said.

"You would be right. Her name is Sunset Shimmer and she is the queen of this school. You better not get involved." After that, we arrived at the gym. "Okay then enjoy PE." With that, she left and we went our separate ways. After PE we had lunchtime and as I was expecting there was a huge line. With that, I got into it and waited for my turn. It went pretty quickly all things considering and when I finally got my lunch I searched for Vinyl. I found her sitting at the table with all of the musicians of the school. With that, I made my way over. At some point, she must have noticed me because she called me over.

"Hey there Sound. We were just talking about you come sit down." With that said I sat down next to her and then she asked. "So how did PE go?"

"Uh, it was a complete waste of time. The teacher there is more of a drill sergeant then anything else because he made me do one thousand push-ups for being the last one to get in line and to make matters even worse we had to play dodgeball right after. I tell you that guy is going to kill me because my arms are sore as fuck. But other than that pretty good." I said in a complaining tone after that I smiled. "But other then that, it was pretty good. What about you?" At first, she looked completely stupefied, but after my whole sentence was processed she let out a little chuckle.

"Man you are one of the only people that I know who actually liked his class. My condolences to your arms though, because you are going to feel that in the morning. As for what I did we basically played volleyball for the whole hour. Now let me introduce you to some of my other friends. This here is Lyra Heartstrings."

"Hello." She said while waving a hand.

"The one sitting next to her is called Sweetie Drops, but we call her Bon Bon." Vinyl said while pointing to her.

"Nice to meet you." She said.

"And the one sitting next to you is called Derpy Hooves."

"Hi."

"Well, it's nice to meet you all and any friend of Vinyl is a friend of mine." Then I started on my food. When I was about halfway finished Lyra asked.

"So you're a musician what do you play?" I stopped eating and answered.

"I mostly play electronic instruments, but my three favourite ones are the electric guitar, the keytar and my drums. And you?"

"Oh I play the lyre, but I also play other similar instruments." Then Derpy spoke up.

"You and Vinyl have similar tastes in music do your whole family like that kind of music." I looked towards Vinyl and saw that she was in though after a minute she said.

"You know what, as far as I can remember we were always a musically inclined family." Then I stopped her because she looked like she was going to go off on a tangent.

"Does a simple yes answer your question." She nodded. "Good. Now, lets finish our lunch because mealtime ends in about five minutes." With that, we all returned to our meals, while we were blissfully unaware of a couple of eyes watching us.
> Log 9 "a day with Pinkie"
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day started the same way the only difference being, that on our way to school we were stopped by Pinkie and I mean literally stopped because she appeared seemingly out of nowhere and then after a minute I asked. "What were you doing in a bush?"

"Waiting for you silly." Of course, I was not going to get a straight answer out of her.

"And why were you waiting for me?" I asked while raising an eyebrow.

"Because Spore Harvest wrote me to be inside that bush." Okay, then I'm going to forget that.

"Alrighty then let's get to school before we're late and before my brain explode. Does anyone have any objections?" I looked at both Vinyl and Octavia and they both shook their heads. "Pinkie?"

"Nopey dopey." Then she bounced away with us following behind her.

"If you two start seeing smoke coming out of my ears then take cower," I whispered to Octavia and Vinyl they both nodded. Then Pinkie appeared before us.

"What are we whispering about." We all jumped back and then I answered.

"Oh nothing major, just asking if there was any homework yesterday and sure enough there was and I have already finished it." After that, I gave her a sheepish smile. She looked at us with that traditional scrutinising eye and after a solid minute she smiled and said.

"Okay, Soundy. I believe you. Oh yeah, and before I forget, make sure to come to the library, because I have something very important to tell you." With that, she bounced off inside of the school. After that, I turned to my friends and said.

"Well I know what I'm doing today and if you find me on the news then I was killed by Pinkie. Now let's go to class because I need some boringness in my system to equalize the crazy that's in me now. With that said let me cartwheel into the school." With that, I started doing cartwheels and went inside the school.

"Oh shit she drove him mad, I think we should follow him before he hurts himself or anyone else." Then we heard a crash. "And we should probably start it now." Said Vinyl.

"I'll get the water bucket." Said Octavia and after that, they split up and went their separate ways.


***


After they found me again they found me sitting with crossed legs and sitting on a bench. "Hey Sound are you okay?" Asked Vinyl.

"I think so, but I really wouldn't be counting on it."

"Hey don't say that and besides you're not the first one to lose their shit because of Pinkie. If I say so myself. I mean you should have seen Octy." And then Octavia covered her mouth and said.

"He doesn't need to know that. Now let's get to class before we're late." After that, we went to class. On the way, I couldn't help myself and I asked Octavia.

"What happened with Pinkie and you?" Then she looked at me with a scowl and a fist raised.

"If you ask me again I will knock out your teeth." Then her face turned neutral "Now let's go." After that, I leaned to Vinyl And whispered.

"Is she always this scary when you get her mad." 

"No, she's usually much worse. Now let's go before she kills us." With that, we quickly followed her to class again not noticing the red eyes looking from behind the corner.

"Sunset is going to love this." She said and then she went in the opposite direction. I heard the last words from it and turn around and I noticed the black bell bottom pants with flames on it. I filled that away for later cross-referencing.


***


After my classes were done I made my way towards the library to get the meeting with Pinkie over as soon as possible. With that thought in mind, I opened the door and stepped inside. Then I made a quick look around and finally noticed her waving at me to come over. I took a deep breath and then I went over to her. "Hi, pinkie so what do you need from me." After that, she reached behind her and pulled out two pieces of paper.

"Okay then read the top one first that one's from Spore Harvest the so-called creator of this universe." After that, I took another deep breath and started to read the first letter. 

Dear Soundwave,

It came to my notice that you have forgotten a major part of a displaced story, so in response to that I'm sending you this letter to tell you to make a trinket and to send it to the void so that I can get some crossovers going so if you would please do that and If you are scared about Pinkie finding out what you are, because she already knows. Don't worry she pinkie promised not to tell anybody. Now get to work on making that trinket.

Love Spore Harvest.

After I finished reading the letter I said to Pinkie. "Could you please excuse me for a minute?" With that said I left the table and went to the nearest bathroom and started to bang my head against a wall. After about ten minutes of me doing that I returned to Pinkie and asked. "So you know what I am." She nodded. "Okay, then you probably also know what I need to do to appease Spore." Then I hit my head on the table again. "Now would you please tell me what I need to do."

"Sure silly first get an item that represents your character then record some words on it and then you open a portal to the void and throw it in. That's basically how it's done." After I soaked up all of that information I got an idea, so I reached into my backpack and pulled out an I pod.





"Okay, how does my backpack work? You know what don't answer. I want to keep the rest of my sanity. Back to the task at hand. So I just speak some text into it?" She nodded. "Okay, then let's begin then." Then I pressed a button on my I pod and started to record. "To whoever finds this. Hi, my name is Soundwave and if you need my help in battling some great evil or you want to just chat then call forth my name and I'll probably appear in the meantime enjoy the music that's on here." Then I stopped my recording and turned to Pinkie. "So can you send this off?" 

"Sure I can." Then she took the I pod, opened a black hole next to her and threw it in. After that, I looked at the other piece of paper that was left over. I took it and read it. It was an invitation to a party.

"Okay Pinkie. I would love to go to this party, but the problem is I can't handle any more craziness on your part so I hope you understand." After that, her smile changed into a frown.

"Look I'm sorry about my antics and I promise to tone it down from now on just please come I invited all your friends. Please." She punctuated her statement with the puppy dog eyes. I couldn't resist.

"Okay, I'll come you just make sure that you don't go too crazy with everything." Then she smiled and bounced.

"Oh, I pinkie promise that I won't go too crazy. Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." She did the corresponding motions and then she started to leave. "See you at four." Then she completely left the library.

"Okay, then brain start preparing for that. Until then let's go to the cafeteria and get something to eat." With that in mind, I went to the cafeteria.
> Log 10 "Party time"
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once I got to the cafeteria I quickly stepped into the line and waited for my turn to get some grub. Once I got my food I scanned the cafeteria to find my friends and sure enough, they were sitting at the same table as before. Since I didn't have anything else to do I walked over to them and said. "Hey, guys. Guess who didn't go completely insane? This guy." I said while also pointing at myself.

"Well that's good to hear. We wouldn't want to see you in a straight jacket just yet." Said Vinyl. Then I pretended to be surprised.

"Why Vinyl I didn't know you cared so much about me, but in all seriousness what's up." I asked while sitting down.

"Nothing much we just got invitations to a Pinkie party. Speaking of Pinkie what did she need you for anyway?" She asked.

"She needed me to ask me a couple of things that she wanted to know about me for the party, that I was of course invited to as well." I answered to her.

"Oh well I'm sorry for your ears." Said Octavia. "She probably almost talked you to death."

"Well at first she did almost talk me to death, as you put it, but after she promised to calm down, it was a really nice conversation even if it was a little crazy."

"Lets hope its fun. Ah who am I kidding it's a Pinkie of course its going to be fun." Said Lyra. I took a bite out of my sandwich and ate it. Then I heard the bell.

"Oh come on!" I screamed.

"Eh sorry Sound, but look at it this way at least you are going to be able to eat at the party." Said Vinyl. I got my backpack and pulled out a lunch box.

"Fuck it I'm packing this up, so I can eat it later." Then I packed it up and we were off to the next class.


***


After school me and Vinyl decided to go and see what the Autobots were up to. So with that in mind we made our way towards their headquarters. Once there we were surprised to find them fighting. Who was fighting? It was the elite Autobot guard and the Dinobots. I quickly transformed into robot mode, turned my speakers to the max and then I yelled. "DINOBOTS FRONT AND CENTER!!!" After that the Dinobots stopped fighting and got into a row right in front of me. "Grimlock please tell me why you are fighting the Autobot elite guard."

"Chin bot attacked Dinobots first. Dinobots only sleep in the front yard and Optimus told us to protect the headquarters from all outside sources." Said Grimlock. After that the before mentioned chin bot spoke up.

"My name is Sentinell Prime, identify yourselves."

"My name is Soundwave and these are the Dinobots Grimlock, Slug and Strafe. Now may I ask you who are you?" I pointed out each of the Dinobots while I said their names. After that he answered.

"Well my name is Sentinel prime, over there we have Jazz and there is our commander Ultra Magnus." This is what they looked like.





"It's nice to meet you all." Then I turned to the Dinobots "Dinobots go inside and go rest and make sure that you listen to Vinyl, because she is in charge." After that I picked up Vinyl and handed her to Grimlock. After that they all went inside. "As for you we are going to sit down and wait for the other Autobots to return." After that I sat down and crossed my legs. Of course Sentinel had allot of words to say about that.

"Who are you to boss us around. You're not in the elite guard so you have no authority over us." Of course what he didn't notice is that Jazz and Magnus had already sat down.

"Look Chin bot if you have a problem with me then I can make you sit down and I don't want to do that."

"Are you threatening me?" He asked while stepping closer.

"No I'm just stating what I am going to do, if you don't comply." After that he charged at me I just started to play a subtle tune which slowed him down. "Now you are going to go to sleep. After that he fell on the ground completely knocked out. I then turned to Magnus. "I'm sorry for that, but I couldn't stand his pompous attitude anymore."

"Don't worry about that. If I am completely honest he was getting on my nerves as well. So you did the right thing." After that we just waited in silence.


***


After about an hour the Autobots finally decided to show up. "Finally. Where were you guys?" I asked while also getting up.

"We were stuck fighting a horde of Insectocons on the edge of town. Why is Sentinel sleeping on the ground?" Asked Bumble Bee. I filed that away for later use. Then I went over and kicked Sentinel. He jumped up and said.

"I'm ready for action." Then I smacked him upside the head "Ow what."

"Okay Optimus the elite were here and they were fighting the Dinobots. They tell me that they were sleeping and that they were attacked for no reason. If you could please clean this up and take down his ego down a peg or two that would be swell." I said while also pointing at Sentinel.

"Are you looking for a fight?" He said, but I didn't even answer I just took my happy ass and walked inside to get Vinyl. "Hey don't you ignore me." Then he charged me again. I just let Rat Bat do all the talking basically getting him back to sleep.

"Never fuck with Soundwave." With that I entered the building. When I entered I was met with a peculiar scene. It was that of the Dinobots being covered by a tarp and sleeping like children while Vinyl's there reading a bedtime story from her phone. Since I didn't want to wake them up I whispered. "Hey Vinyl come on we have something to do." She simply nodded and followed me out. Once outside we were met with a scene of Optimus and Sentinel butting heads and yelling at each other while everyone else was watching. I just detached Laser Beak and whispered to Vinyl "Do you want to do the honers?"

"Hell yeah." She then Excepted the shrunken down guitar. Then I set up her shot and she started to play launching Sentinel into the wall. 

"And that is how you clean up." Then I transformed into vehicle mode and drove off. After about ten minutes Vinyl asked.

"So where are we going?"

"We are going to the edge of town to recruit some Insecticons." I answered.

"And how are you planing on doing that?" She asked while raising one eyebrow.

"I have no idea. You know I usually play by ear."

"Yeah i guess you're right. Let's finish this up quickly, so that we are not late for your party." With that we sped up to the outskirts of town. Once there we found the site where were fighting. I transformed, but I made sure that I changed my symbol back to that of the Decepticons.

"Hello Insecticons are you here?" But nobody answered. "Come on out I'm not going to hurt you." After that the earth started to shake and after that three Decepticons appeared.



 

But there was something off about them. They had these weird radio antena sticking out of their heads and they definitely proved that when they started talking.

"Who are you bot or con?" They all talked in unison and in a monotone voice and I swear that I hear Megatron talking as well.

"My name is Soundwave and I am a Decepticon. Who are you?" After that they started walking closer.

"These guys are called Shrapnel, Bombshell and Kickback, but you probably know who I really am. My name is Megatron." They all said. I silently detached Rat Bat and told him to slink himself behind them to play a tune that would destroy the antenas.

"So Megatron do you need anything from me?"

"Yes I do I need you to find and infiltrate the Autobot base and bring me the all spark. Could you possibly do that for me."

"I'll see what I can do." After that Rat Bat started to play a high pitched tone which destroyed all of their antenas making them collapse.

"Sweet you did it Sound." After that I changed my symbol to that of the Autobots, with that done I stepped up to them and started to shake them awake. After about five minutes they started to wake up.

"Huh what? What happened?" Asked Bombshell.

"You were mind controlled by Megatron. My name is Soundwave and I am here to help you and recruit you for the Autobots." After that they all got up and then Kickback asked.

"But we are stuck with these." He said while pointing at his symbol. Then Vinyl decided to speak up.

"Don't worry guys. Soundwave is going to figure something out. Won't you big guy?" I simply nodded and then I reached into my backpack and I pulled out three Autobot symbols stickers.

"Here you go guys put these on and you are going to become part of the Autobots. It's not only going to change your symbols it is also going to change your colour scheme." After that they all took one and after that Shrapnel asked.

"Do we have any control over our new colour schemes." I simply nodded after that they applied there stickers and they started to change colour. After they finished they looked something like this. They're ayes were a nice blue colour and their purple parts were changed to red.

"So hoe do you feel?" asked Vinyl.

"Mostly the same, but allot more free." Answered Bombshell.

"Okay then guys. Lets transform and introduce you to the team. I have to go somewhere in about half an hour so we kinda need to step on it." With that i transformed and waited for them to do the same. Once they did they said in unison.

"You go we follow." With that we drove off back to the headquarters.


***


When we arrived back at the headquarters we again saw Sentinel and Optimus going at it, but instead of talking they were fighting. "Hey guys why don't you go and enjoy the show while I go and break this up." Then she said.

"Go and mess them up." Then she jumped out and then we all transformed and after that she and the Insecticons made their way towards the audience. After a closer look I also noticed that the Dinobots were watching. With that observation made. I pulled Ravage out and started to play. When the sounds reached their ears they dropped their weapons and stood at attention. After that I started to play a military march and we started to march. After a minute of that i started to make them do acrobatics and after that I made them dance together. After that I stopped playing and they both collapsed. Then Optimus said.

"It comes to my attention that no one should have such unlimited control over any one."

"I agree with Optimus on this one." Said Sentinel.

"Then stop fighting or complaining about each other or I'm going to teach some other bots to do it. Now with that done Optimus let me introduce to you some new recruits that I got. Insecticons front and center." With that said they assembled in front of me facing Optimus. I stepped in front of them and started to introduce them. "This here's Shrapnel." He waved. "Next to him is Bombshell."

"Hello there handsome."

"And standing next to her is Kickback."

"Sup." After I introduced them Vinyl stepped up to me and poked me in my leg.

"Hey Sound we need to get going or we are going to be late for the party." I looked down at her and then I turned back to Optimus.

"I Would love to stay and chat, but I really need to get moving. Now you guys better play nice or next time I'm going to make you do the can can. With that said I bid you goodnight." Then I picked up Vinyl, Transformed and drove off towards Sugar cube corner.


***


Once we were about a block away from our destination I found myself an alleyway, let out Vinyl and transformed into my human form. "Okay then Vinyl lets get this over with."

"Oh come on big guy it's not going to be that bad."

"Tell that to the hole I made in the wall in the library bathroom." I whispered to myself.

"What was that?"

"Nothing, nothing. Lets just go." With that we made our way out off the alleyway and towards Sugar cube corner. Once we got there we found the store to be completely dark. "Well it seems to be closed lets go." And I started walking away, but then Vinyl grabbed me and started pulling me towards the bakery.

"Oh come on Sound, if you can recruit a couple of Decepticons then you can also take on Pinkie now open the door." With that said she placed me in front of the door and since I didn't have any other choice I opened it and stepped in. When I did that I entered into complete darkness.

"Okay Vinyl can we turn around because I feel like we're breaking and entering." Then I heard some shuffling and after that the lights turned on and all of my friends yelled.

"SURPRISE!!!" Then Pinkie jumped into my face and asked.

"So were you surprised?" She asked in a more subdued voice. After I finished taking in all of the decorations, all of the backed goods and my friends I said.

"Yeah I was. So what are we waiting for? Lets party!" With that music started playing and everyone started enjoying the party.

***The next morning***


"Man that was some party wasn't it SoundWave," Winyl said as we both walked towards the school.

Last nights party went off without a hitch and we all had a lot of fun. We played some games ate tons of snacks and as a bonus, we also had a DJ battle to close off the night. But the problem with being up all night is that you feel so sluggish and tired that it drives you crazy.

"Yeah, it was Vinyl. So we have anything fun on the agenda today to wake me up. Because I really need a pick me up." I punctuated that statement with a yawn.

"As a matter of fact, we do. Today there is a special event at school and- OOF!!" Vinyl wasn't watching and sure enough, she bumped into the queen off mean herself Sunset Shimmer and a new face I haven't seen in the Equestria Girls universe.

She was wearing a red T-shirt with a flame design, with a black jacket over it. She was also wearing black bell bottom pants which also included a fire motive on it. She also had light grey skin with a slight metallic shine to it. After that tip off I also x rayed her to reveal cybertronian skeleton and organs. "Oh, this will be fun." I thought to myself.

"Oh sorry, Sunset didn't see you there."

"How DARE you bump into me!" Sunset exploded immediately.

"Woah, Woah, calm down Sunset it was just an accident." She then directed her anger at me and snapped her fingers.

"Flamewar deal with him, while I take care of Vinyl," Sunset said after which the now named Flamewar stepped up to me and pushed me aside.

"Now listen here bub. I know what you are and I'm pretty sure you know what I am so why don't we let our respected riders duke it out and we just watch the show." She said before pointing to Sunset and Vinyl who were about ready to fight.

I just smiled at her and said. "Okay we watch, but if it gets out of hand we intervene. Okay." I outstretched my right hand. She smiled and shook it.

"Okay. You know you're not so bad... for an Autobot." She said while sitting down.

"Whoever said I was? I can be whoever I want and nobot is going to dictate otherwise." I said sitting down next to her. After that, the catfight started. I would have loved to describe it in great detail but in the end, they were just pushing each other and throwing insults at each other. 

"Well, that was anticlimactic."

"You said it Soundwave." After that Sunset noticed that Flamewar wasn't tearing my guts out, so she levelled her anger at the sitting robot. It was much the same for me and Vinyl. With that, we both punched each other in the face at the same time knocking us to the ground after which we pretended to be knocked out. Seemingly satisfied, they continued their little skirmish.

After about ten minutes I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen which got me to stand up real quick. "I'm up! I'm up!"

"I hope that hurt you lazy ass." Vinyl said shoving quite a lot of anger on her face along with a couple of scratches.

"A little yeah," I answered followed by another punch in the gut. "Okay, a lot," I wheezed out. When I regained my breath I continued. "Why are you so pissed at me. I didn't do anything?"

"That's the point. Why didn't you just deck her?" Vinyl asked still infuriated.

"Because of this Vinyl." I then punched the tree leaving a deep imprint of my fist. "And that was done with me not even trying. Look I know that I should have protected you and next time I will but for now, we need to get to school before we're late." With that, she immediately forgot her rage and dragged me to school.

We arrived in homeroom just before the bell rang. Mr Sombra was less than pleased. "Cutting it a bit close aren't we Miss Scratch and Mr Wave."

"Sorry, Mr Sombra. We were a little held up. But I can assure you that this won't happen again." I said.

"Make sure that that happens Mr Wave. Now sit I have an important announcement for today." With that said Vinyl and I sat down in our seats and waited for Sombra to begin.

"Okay students as you probably all know, today is the annual sports festival where you can compete in up to three disciplines to show what you are made of." He then pulled out a stack of papers. "Each of you will be required to participate in at least one. Except if you have a medical condition which will be checked after you return the forms. Now get to it. We don't have all day." 

The forms were your standard issue forms. Put name here, choose sport here and all that sort of crap. I chose archery and the one hundred meter sprint. "Might as well see if I can win at something else." I thought to myself. I then gave the form to Sombra, who then dismissed me. With that, I took my happy ass and left the classroom.

Once outside I was greeted by Flamewar. "Hey, I managed to ditch Sunset for a while. Wana hang for a bit?"

I was a bit sceptical. "Sure I guess, but how do I know you're not just going to knock me out or record something embarrassing for Sunset?"

"Well because we cons got to stick together." She then came closer and whispered. "And between you and me she is kinda a bitch."

"Amen to that. So what do you wanna talk about?" I said, starting to walk towards the back of the school, where this sports festival is being held.

"Eh, how about you tell me what you've been up to while on earth. I'm sure you have something interesting to tell."

I then talked about sawing the Dinobots and Insecticons along with how I made Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus dance to the beat of my song. She almost literally laughed her ass off on that one.

"And yeah, they are probably still butting heads at this moment so I'll probably make them do the can can this time."

"Hahahahahaha phew. Well, that is hilarious. Uh oh, Sunset incoming. Sorry for this." She said before slugging me in the face which sent me over the bench we were sitting on. "AND STAY OF MY BENCH NERD! Oh hi, Sunset I was a little preoccupied."

"Yeah, I see and approve. So are you ready for the festival?" Sunset giving me a devilish smile.

"Well I don't approve and the banana nut mix agrees," I said in a slurred manner.

"Be quiet, your superiors are speaking." Flame said before decking me again. "And yeah I am ready for the race."

"Okay then let's go then. I want to prepare a bit before the festival begins." She then turned to me. "And you tell Vinyl that she is going to lose."

"Afirmabliv prohaser farnshort," I said giving her a thumbs up. I then fell over backwards and went to sleep.


***POV Vinyl***


"Where is that dunderhead. He is going to miss the festiv- is he sleeping under a tree? Oh, he is going to get it now." I said before ai walked up to him and shook him awake. When he woke up he said.

"Heil Vinulb I be say you lose is Sunble. OH LOOK STARS." He screamed out. I couldn't get him to snap out of it so I had to use drastic measures. I grabbed my water bottle and sprayed its contents into his face. After that, he was back to the land of the sane.

"WHAT, WHY, WHO, WHERE ?!!" He said in complete shock, he then noticed me and regained his senses. "Oh hi Vinyl, Sunset told me to tell you that you are going to lose," he said in a matter of fact voice. But after hearing it I just became mad. "That insufferable egotistical bitch I really wish someone would knock down her ego down a peg or two." I thought to myself before Soundwave finally got up. I calmed down and finally spoke up.

"So Soundwave care to explain why you were sleeping under a tree, looking like somebody punched you several times in the face."

"Well, Vinyl if you must know it is because I was hit in the face by Flamewar." His face then contorted with anger and he punched another tree this time punching through. "Oh, she is going to get it now." He then sprinted off towards the festival his eyes literally blood red.

"And I thought Tavi was bad when she gets mad." I then ran after him hoping to stop a rampage.


***


Once at the festival, I saw everyone preparing for the different events. Thankfully I had half a mind to change clothes before getting here. Seeing Tavi in the distance talking to Derpy and Lyra I approached. "Hey, guys have any of you seen Sound? He kinda lost his mind to rage and I am hoping to stop a catastrophe," Lyra then spoke up while pointing at the enraged bot.

"Oh, he is at the target range throwing kunai at targets," Soundwave then punctuated this statement by throwing three kunai which struck dead centre, the other two actually splitting in half. He then went to pick them up and repeated the process. I at that point decided to leave him alone. I'll talk to him when he is not holding sharp and deadly objects. I then turned my attention back to Lyra.

"Changing the subject. What did you guys decide to attend this year or is it much the same as last year?"

"Nope, I'm still in the high jump and the marathon," Lyra said followed by Derpy.

"And I decided to go and try archery." I just stared at her funny before I simply shrugged. 

"Okay students get ready for the first competition is about to begin. Everyone who has signed up for archery should step up to the target range." At that point, I saw all the contestants go to their targets. That includes both a still angry Soundwave and Derpy and to my surprise no Firestorm or Sunrise. "I wonder where they are? I thought they would be planning something." After that vice principle, Luna called forth the first contestant, which turned out to be Soundwave.

When he stepped up his eyes were still red and he was breathing hard. He then aimed his arrow and shot it followed right after by the other two. All of them struck dead centre. He actually managed to fire them with such power that he shot through the target. Luna was actually quite surprised but she still sent him away with his score sheet. It continued on like that for the rest of the competitions. Thankfully he wasn't called for anything else but the sprint which he also dominated and after that, the competition was finished and it was time to deal out the rewards.

And wouldn't you know it, when Sound was supposed to get his he was doused with syrup and hit with several pillows knocking him off stage. Oh, the look on his face when he came back up he looked like he was about to explode and kill someone. And sure enough, it was Sunsets and Firestorms fault.


***POV SoundWave***


After I was hit in the face with that pillow I literally saw red and all my hate was focused on the two laughing girls who were about to face my eternal wrath. But then I felt something click in my circuitry and I just started laughing. I then calmed down and just stepped back next to principal Celestia to receive my two medals. Celestia gave me the medals and I left the stage still looking like a chicken. I went and stood next to Vinyl and leaned in closer to her and said.

"We are getting our revenge on Sunset and Firestorm tomorrow so be prepared to prank her with everything you got." I then walked away inside to clean myself off.

***POV Soundwave***


It has been several days since the competition and I was still hoping mad about what she demon and her minion did to me. Sadly I didn't have much luck in figuring out a perfect come back for them.

It is for that reason why I am currently in Vinyls recording studio trying to figure out said perfect come back for Sunset and Firestarter. All of my minicons were out and they were all helping me brainstorm something.

"Hmm, maybe we could engenir some robotic mice and let them lose in her locker. And since we would be working in her locker we might as well rig a pie to slam in her face." Rumble suggested.

"That's good. Great actually. Write it down and put it under maybe." I said going back to thinking. I racked my servos for what felt like ages and then a lightbulb went of and I got a dasterdly and wery evil idea. "This will be glorious." I said to myself finishing up some small details in my brain and saving it for later. After that Vinyl came downstairs with some refreshments.

"Hey there big guy how is your brainstorming session going?" She asked while placing the drinks and cans of oil on a nearby table. I just turned towards her showing her my evil smile. "By the looks of it. It's going great." She sat down and looked me straight in the eyes. "Tell me everything." I obliged and the next several hours were spent with me explaining my plan to everyone present.


***Several hours later at the autobot base***


Ultra Magnus and his crew decided to stay for the time beeing. They wanted to see how the autobots work and sure enough Sentinal was again beeing wery annoying trying to make Optimus slip up. "Tell me Prime what is your schedule like? Where do you keep your energon reserves? When does your training begin?..." It was an endless barrage of questions and Optimus was reaching his limit, one of his eyes twitching madly.

It was at that point that I entered the building with Vinyl on my shoulder and looked around. Sentinal of course zeroed in on me and imediately started to walk over to me. "Look what the trash compactor dragged in if it isn't-" I didn't want to listen to him anymore so I delivered an uppercut to him and walked further inside. He didn't like that and imediately wanted to attack me, but I stopped it by giving him the nastiest hit to his lover reagon that I can muster making him colapse.

"I have enough of you Sentinel. Eather get better at fighting or for the love of the allspark please shut the fuck up." I then deeper into the complex to find the Insecticons. 

I soon found them all doing their own thing. Shrapnel was munching on a can seeming to quite enjoy the taste. Bombshell was wresteling with the dinobots and Kickback was playing what looked like a video game with Bumblebee.

"Insecticons I require your assistance with something." I asked which caused them to line up in front of me and saluting.

"Sure thing boss man. What do you need?" Kickback asked in a laid back tone. I then motioned for them to come closser so that I can explain the plan to them.

By the end of it they were all smileing evily which I atributed to them being a bit mischieviois when the opertunety arrived.

Bombshell chuckeled. "Oh my this will be quite the interesting plan. Also I didn't know you were going to a school."

"I have many surprises up my sleeves and I'm sure there are plenty more that I am not aware of. For now tho, we have a bit of revenge we need to get done." I said smiling under my face plate. "Can't wait to see how this turns out." Vinyl said smiling evily as well.

After that we started walking out of the construction site but we were stopped by Proul. "Soundwave where are you taking the insecticons?" I turned to him and put on the most cheerfull voice I can muster which was a bit difecult with how my voice box works.

"I decided to take them out and show them around town Proul. Besides when Sentinel gets back up he is going to be wery aniying and I want to at least spare our newest recruits the headache." I said while signaling to the insecticons to play allong.

Proul looked into my servoes and then something unexpected happened. He went down to his knees and bowed. "Please take me with you!" Okay that was very unexpected so I looked to Vinyl for her opinion. She was a bit unsure but she then came closser and whispered into my ear. "I'm not sure. He could complicate things."

"Maybe qe could get him to a secluded place and let him relax. While we do our own stuff." I whispered back.

"That's actually a good idea. I know just the place. I'll take him there after our short tour. And while distract him you and the others get your revenge. Just please make sure to record everything." She answered while I nodded and looked back down at Proul.

"Okay then you can come with us." I picked him back up and placed him on his feet. "But you will have to behave and obey my orders. Me and Vinyl are in charge of this trip."

"Of course Soundwave. I'll be on my best behaviour." He said relief being shown in spades on his face.

"Okay then lets go." I said walking out not bothering to shift into robot mode and started our quote on quote tour of the city.

"Uhm Soundwave why aren't we changing form?" Proul asked.

"Are you going to explain three giant bugs walking around the city?" I asked looking over my shoulder at the group. "Yeah and besides people need to get used to you anyhow so why not stay as robots. Just be carefull not to step on anyone." Vinyl explained with a huge smile on her face. The Insecticons saluted while prowl looked a bit hesitant. "If you say so Vinyl." And with that we started our tour.

The whole process went like so. Vinyl would derect us to a certain monument and or place of business she would tell us something about it and after that we asked our various questions. Which Vinyl andwered happely.

***

After about two hours we stopped at a beautifull park,where we will finally begin my master plan. We stopped next to a pond with a small waterfall filling it with water. Proul released a sigh.

"Wow this place is amazing. And so calm." He then sat down and started to observe the landscape. Vinyl then climbed onto his knee and did the same. "That's Canterlot park for you." She said while laying back.

Prowl after a while did the same and watched the clouds go by. After a couple of minutes I stepped and looked down at him. "You wana stay here for a while longer?" To which he nodded. "Okay then you and Vinyl stay here while I bring the insecticons back to base. Make sure to keep her safe." He nodded again and with that we were on our way to the school with evil smiles on our faces.


***Later at the school.***


It finally came time to put my plan into action and while I would love to explain everything here, but it will be a lot more enjoyable if you just continue to read the log.

Anywho I was hiding somewhere near Sunsets locker and waiting for my plan to begin. And sure enough the victim is now aproaching her locker with Flamewar following behind. I sent her a quick warning and coordinates to where I am located. 

She looked my way and I mimed her to be quiet and to stand back. Sunset noticed this. "Flamewar, what's the hold up?" She asked a bit pissed already.

"Nothing boss. Just scratching an itch." She said giving her a toothy grin.

"Okay then. Anywho we need to make sure that Soundwave knows his place so I thought we step it up to phase two a little bit early." She said while opening her locker to find bugs crawling all over her stuff eating everything that was made of metal. Some of them also started crawling up her arm. She screamed and started to flick them off while they continued to crawl up her. "AHHHH FLAMEWAR HEELLP!!!" She screamed but Flamewar was already on the ground laughing.

Sunset then reached for a fire extinguisher to blast them off but the thing simply fell apart completely empty. The bugs then started to crawl on her skin making her squirm punch and scratch herself multyple times.

She then ran down the hallway but was tripped up by a tripwire, operated by Frenzy and Rumble, and landed face first in a pie.

She then got up but the swarm of insects smelling the pie imediately started to asault her while she ran for her life and soon she ran out of the school and jumped into a river washing herself of the pie but also getting soocked in the process.

It was at that point I got out of my hiding place and started laughing my but off. "Ahahahahaha. Oh man revenge is sweet." I then noticed Flamewar and helped her up. "Enjoyed the show?" I asked while I gave the bugs the signal to get lost.

"Oh hell yes." She said while still giving the ocasional chuckle.

"Well now comes part two." I said pointing to Laser Beak who is flying above her with a bucket filled with ketchup and musterd. He released the contents of it on her and quickly hid inside a tree. The scream could be heard throughout the entire campus.

"And that my dear is why you never mess with Soundwave." I said smirking.

"Wow she is going to be pissed after this." She said a bit worried. "You know she will want to get rewenge right?" 

"Yeah but for now I feal like my work here is done." With that all of my minicons returned to me and I went to the back football field with Flamewar following me.

"You've got guts Sound. I know I wouldn't want Sunset pissed at me. She can be scary man." She said shuddering a bit.

"Yeah but I'll survive. Any who wana hang for a bit with me and some of my bigger friends?" I asked walking past the field and straight into the forest.

"Sure why not." She said before turning into her robot mode with me following right after. "So where are these friends of yours?"

"Somewhere back here building themselves together." She gave me an odd look, but I just pressed on until we arrived at a clearing with three half dissasambled bots with several bugs leading to them.

"What the fuck!" Flame yelled out as she watched the bots slowly rebuild themselves.

"Flamewar these are the insecticons Shrapnel, Bombshell and Kickback. Insecticons meet Flamewar." I said afterwhich they gave their traditional greatings. I then layed on my back and just relaxed. As did Kickback after he reconstructed himself. Shrapnel started to eat a boulder and Bombshelk started a conversation with Flamewar to which I didn't pay any attention.

After some time of lazing around I started to doze of a bit but was interupted by Vinyl calling me which sent me wide awake. "You have reached Soundwave.How may I be of asistance?" I asked.

"Hey big guy. There seems to be a decepticon loose somewhere near our school and I was wondering if you see any big robots with that insignia in the area?" She was odly calm about it.

"Yes I am looking at her right now but she's cool. Nothing to worry about."

"That's okay I'm not, but Prowl isn't and we are coming to your location." 

"Estimated time of artival." I asked slowly geting up and dusting myself off.

"Five minutes or so." She said after I heard a siron turn on.

"Okay I'll take care of this. Soundwave out. I then hung up and turned to Shrapnel. "Hey Shrapnel could you carve out a table and some chairs in five minutes?" To that he nodded. "Great then please carve them out." I said before turning to the rest of the robots.

"What's wrong Sound?" Flame asked.

"Nothing to worry about. Just the Autobot Prowl has sensed your decepticon signal and is now coming here. But don't worry I'll do a Pinkiepie.

"What does that mean?" Kickback asked to which I just shruged.

"Hell if I know. I'm just gona do the most insane and stupid thing that comes to mind and hope that it works." And with that I just went into the forest to collect some logs.
