~General Narration~
Amy was sitting in the couch in the main room. She and Shi hadn't spoke to each other in days, Optimus was only caught in the middle not knowing what to do, for once. Miko, Jack, and Raf did their best to cheer Amy and Shi up but hardly anything did.
"Hey Amy I'm going to go and practice some songs wanna go?" Miko asked the raven haired girl.
Amy nodded "Yeah, I haven't played my guitar in while." She said standing.
"Awesome! Let's go!" Miko smiled nearly jumping down the stairs. Amy chuckled and followed the pink and black haired japanese girl. Miko practically ran down to the room where they had brought in multiple instruments. Amy and Shi had played different instruments including guitar, piano, and drums.
Optimus watched his young charge follow Miko. He vented thinking about what had happened days ago, ever since then his two charges weren't even speaking to one another. Slowly he returned to his work with a vent. Only when he heard a soft voice singing did he look up.
"I'm still trying to figure out how to tell you I was wrong.
I can't fill the emptiness inside since you've been gone.
So is it you or is it me?
I know I said things that I didn't mean
But you should've known me by now
You should've known me
Optimus turned slowly walking down the hallway where the singing and guitar playing was coming from.
If you believed
When I said
Id be better off without you
Then you really never knew me at all
If you believed
When I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth but you're wrong
You're all that I need
Just tell me that you still believe
Optimus stood in the doorway watching Miko and Amy who was singing.
I can't undo the things that led us to this place
But I know there's something more
To us than our mistakes
So is it you, or is it me?

I know I'm so blind when we don't agree
But you should've known me by now
You should've known me
If you believed when I said
Id be better off without you

Then you never really knew me at all
If you believed when I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth
But you were wrong
You're all that I need
Just tell me you still believe

Is it you or is it me?
I know I said things I didn't mean
You should've known me by now
You should've known me
If you believed when I said
Id be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all
Just tell me you still believe
Is it you or is it me?

I know I said things I didn't mean
You should've known me by now
You should've known me
'Cause you're all that I want
Don't you even know me at all?
You're all I need
Just tell me that you still believe
Miko smiled looking at Amy who wiped her tears away away. Amy hugged Miko back when she was hugged by the japanese girl.
"C'mon, let's play some of your Linkin Park." Miko said.
"You can't have Linkin Park without a drummer." Shi said as she walked into the room. Optimus watched her not noticing when she had walked up.
Amy smiled looking her twin "So what song shall we do?" She asked.
"Something heavy!" Miko said.
"Hmm what about "Given Up"?" Shi said.
"Let's do "Rebellion" instead." Amy said.
"I've heard both and I like "Rebellion" better." Miko said.
"You listen to Linkin Park?" Both twins said slightly shocked she listened to anything besides Metal.
"What? Can't a metal girl listen to some rock?" She said putting her fists on her hips.
"Never mind let's get started." Amy said chuckling.
Miko began playing her bass guitar while Shi was on the drums and Amy had her guitar.
"I've seen the blood, I've seen the broken
The lost and the sights unseen
I want a flood, I want an ocean
To wash my confusion clean

I can't resolve this empty story
I can't repair the damage done

We are the fortunate ones
Who've never faced, oppression's gun
We are the fortunate ones
Imatations of rebellion
The other Autobots as well as Jack and Raf walked up standing in front of or beside Optimus watching Miko, Amy, and Shi.
We act it out
We wear the colors
Defined by the things we own
We're not without
We're like each other
Pretending we're here alone
And far away, they burn their buildings
Right in the face of the damage done

We are the fortunate ones
Who've never faced oppression's gun
We are the fortunate ones
Imitations of rebellion, rebellion, rebellion

Rebellion, rebellion
We lost before the start
Rebellion, rebellion
One by one, we fall apart
We fall apart, we fall apart, we fall apart

We are the fortunate ones
Who've never face oppression's gun
We are the fortunate ones
Imitations of, imitations of,
Who've never face oppression's gun
We are the fortunate ones
Imitations of rebellion, rebellion, rebellion.
Amy had sung Chester Bennington's parts while Shi did Mike Shinoda's parts. All three girls looked up surprised at the Autobots, Jack, and Raf watching them. Amy and Shi smiled sheepishly up at Optimus and the others while Miko grinned from ear to ear.
"All three of you and play very well." Optimus said.
"That was awesome Miko!" Bulkhead finally spoke up.
"You think so Bulk?" She ran over to him when he held his servo out for her to climb on.
"I know so." Bulkhead said.
"Didn't know the both of you could sing" Jack said.
"Well, we didn't exactly have anyone to teach us so its kind of natural." Amy said.
The other Autobots nodded saying their opinions which were all good then headed off to do their own tasks. Amy and Shi walked over to Optimus who still stood in his same place. He knelt down holding his servos out for them to climb on which they did happily. Optimus looked down at the twins, happy that they were on good terms again.
