[Does Dawn feel like she's being stalked? What feeling! The girl is blissfully unaware of the car behind her, munching a hamburger in her hand. Oh sure, she gets the feeling of being watched, but she's used to that feeling whenever she had one of her Pokemon out with her.

The Leafeon beside her though is noticing that feeling and throwing looks over her shoulder every once and a while too. She's know you're watching her trainer, Car B|]

[moebotbee]

[The creature by the human is what intrigues Bumblebee the most. He's never seen this sort of animal before, a sort of mix between a dog and a plant. No matter how many times he scans his database, the Autobot can't find the name of the creature. Part of him can't help to think that Ratchet would have loved to give it a closer look.

The creature even seems to be more aware of his stalking than its master and Bee tests it by flashing his headlight at it.]

[distortedawn]

[That definitely startled the Leafeon, and caused her her jump and immediately turn back. Sure it was a regular car and headlights flashing could happen all the time, but it felt a bit different this time.]

Mmm, Fia? What is it? [Dawn stops walking and turns to face Bumblebee.] It's just a car, isn't it?

[moebotbee]

[Oh, it worked! Bee watches with amusement as the creature jumps and turns to face him. When the human does as well, he flashes his headlights once more, this time trying to gain the female's attention.]

[distortedawn]

[Dawn's used to cars, but she's not used to her partners reacting badly to cars. Rubbing the back of her head, she saw the second flash of lights and just stared. Guess maybe someone was trying to get her attention for something. Maybe they were lost... or something. Could be anything in this world.

She comes closer, leaving her Leafeon behind her for now, but she's not close enough to notice that there's no one in the driver's seat.]

Hello? Is something wrong?

[moebotbee]

[The headlights flash again and the radio changes its song]

♬ ♪ ♫Oooooh, nothing is wrong baby....♬ ♪ ♫...please come closer....♬ ♪ ♫

[distortedawn]

[...It's just a change in song or the radio, but there is something almost eery about it. Dawn inspects the car a little closer, looking mostly at his exterior until she notices a rolled down window... and no one inside.

...And that should be the sound of her brain breaking.]

That doesn't... make sense. Unless.... is it haunted? [She's not stepping into the car just yet, but she'll just look around the inside of Bee a little more, half expecting someone to pop out and go 'SURPRISE! FOOLED YOU!']

[moebotbee]

[...Why do humans are bent on putting unexplicable things on the account of the supernatural? Sam had called him 'Satan's Camaro' and research on the world wide web had shown that it was associated with religion and demons and anything of the underworld.

But there is no ghost or demonn inside the of the car and the Autobot is determined to let the female know]

'If there's something weird
and it don't look good
Who ya gonna call?
GHOSTBUSTERS
I ain't afraid of no ghosts
I ain't afraid of no ghosts'

[distortedawn]

[...

Ayup, definitely haunted.

Not that it's a bad thing exactly. Dawn's spent more than half her journey with an inflated balloon that's a registered ghost type. Of course, she's heard all sorts of stories while growing up of Haunters stalking children, and Misdreavuses with hair fetishes and Gastlies trying to suffocate people. But she grew out of those children stories.

Fia catches up to them, but she's still super cautious about the car, only creeping slowly towards it and giving the front bumper a sniff. Meanwhile, Dawn just leans forward on her elbows, resting her arms on his open window.]

What are you?

[moebotbee]

[The radio comes on to life again, this time the voices are robot-like, though deep and sage, nothing like Bumblebee should sound, even if the young lady doesn't know that]

▒░▒...We are Autonomous Robotic Organisms from the planet Cybertron...▒░▒...But you can call us "Autobots", for short....▒░▒

[It's a recording of his friends, which makes the Autobot even more nostalgic about his home.]

[distortedawn]

[She is backing her head out of the car SO. FAST.

So fast that she actually does hit her head on the roof of the window. That'll be the last time she does that again.

By this time, the Leafeon has made her way over to her trainer's side, still cautious, but there was something in Bee's choice of a voice that also sort of put her at ease. Dawn, though, just blinks at the car and lets it sink in.]

Uh, so... you're not just a car? Are you alive...?!

[moebotbee]

[The Autobot inwardly winces when the girl hits her head on the window: he doesn't mean to scare her away. But still, he answers her questions as best as he can:]

♬ ♪ ♫ More than meets the eyes ♬ ♪ ♫

'I'm awake I'm alive
Now I know what I believe inside
Now it's my time
I'll do what I want 'cause this is my life'

[distortedawn]

[Both human and girl look at each other and then back to the car. Neither are going to touch it until they know what's going on here.]

Okay, so you're... not just a car that's alive. And can only speak through songs?

[Wait, could this mean then...?]

...Are you new here or something?

[moebotbee]

[There's suddenly sounds of applause coming from the car, the cheesy voice of a game show announcer resonating over the noise of a bell ringing]

▒░▒...And we have winner!!!...▒░▒

[distortedawn]

[Hey, don't sass her Bee. She's still new here too... sorta.]

You don't have to reply like that. You're the first car-- um... [He said 'Autobots' before right?] robot that I've ever met.

Do you have a name or anything I could call you?

[moebotbee]

[Hey! He didn't meant to sass her! ;_; He was just trying to let her know she was right ;_; At the young lady asking his name, the Autobot switch his radio to a cheerful music]

'Sweet little bumble bee I know what you want from me
Dup-i-dup-i-do la da
Dup-i-dup-i-do la da
Sweet little bumble bee More than just a fantasy
Dup-i-dup-i-do la da
