Optimus walked into the main room and heard a commotion where the kids would hang around. Curious he walked up the stairs and looked at the little group. The wreckers and the speedsters were crowded around the TV as Raf put a movie in. Miko sat on the floor next to Wheeljack as Bulkhead sat on the couch. Smokescreen sat in another chair and talked excitedly. Bumblebee sat cross-legged on the floor and Raf sat in his lap as he grabbed the remote.

"Oh hello Optimus." Arcee said as she walked up behind him. She was carrying a big bowl of popcorn and Jack had sodas. The Prime gave her a questioning look.

"Miko wants us to watch a movie. We didn't see any harm in it." She smiled. He turned to leave.

"You're welcome to watch with us." Jack said, Optimus looked at them for a moment. They grinned and each grabbed one of his hands leading him to the couch.

"Oh you'll love this movie!" Miko said as she saw the Prime. "I wanted to start with something simple, this movie is called 'The Avengers'." She explained. Bulkhead chuckled as his leader sat at one end of the couch. Everyone was ready and talking excitedly.

"Rachet! The movies about to start!" Smokescreen called they all looked in the direction of the computer.

"I'm busy!" The medic snapped back.

"Eh, I tried." The speedster shrugged as he grinned. Raf smiled and started the movie.

After about thirty minutes in, Optimus raised an eyebrow and looked at the others.

"I'm sorry, I don't think I understand the purpose of this." He said the kids looked at him.

"Well....it's mostly for entertainment purposes." Miko responded. The Prime nodded slowly and watched. Towards the end of the movie Rachet came up and watched for a minute.

"That wouldn't happen." He muttered as he gestured to the screen. "How can you watch this? It doesn't make any sense whatsoever." He grumbled.

"It's just for fun Doc." Wheeljack said. "Besides, can you explain how thirty or more foot alien robots turned into six foot humans." He smirked. The room was quiet as they looked at the doctor.

"Yes..." Rachet growled as he turned around and left. "But you won't sit and listen long enough." He grumbled. The wrecker shrugged and went back to the movie.

After the movie was over they all talked excitedly and got up to leave. Optimus raised an eyebrow as he looked at his legs. They felt weird and he wasn't sure why. He tried to stand up but his legs felt like jelly and he flopped back on the couch. He poked his knees and it felt like there were pins and needles in his legs.

"Rachet..." he said without looking up. "I'm not exactly sure why, but my legs won't work." He muttered. All eyes were now on him.

"You can't walk?" Smokescreen asked slightly panicked. The kids walked over as Rachet walked up the stairs.

"Does this hurt?" Miko asked as she poked his calf.

"No."

"Does this hurt?" She poked him again.

"No."

"How bout now?" She said a smile crept up her face.

"No."

"Now?"

"....No...."

"Does-"

"MIKO!!" Rachet snapped. She laughed a little and rolled her eyes before walking off. The doctor grumbled and took in the situation.

"Optimus... did you stay sitting in that same position during the whole movie?" Jack asked. He looked at them for a moment.

"Yes." The two boys chuckled a little.

"Your legs are asleep." Raf said as he smiled. All the others just stared at him.

"Are you saying.....that our limbs just randomly fall asleep?" Smokescreen said as he waved his arms up and down. As if to prevent them from sleeping. Jack and Miko stifled a laugh as they watched him.

"No." Raf giggled as he glanced at the others. They all had worried looks on their faces. "It only happens when you stay in one spot for to long." He smiled.

"So......how do you.....wake it up?" Bulkhead asked.

"Normally what I do is wiggle whatever's asleep or wait it out." Jack said. Optimus looked at his shoes and wiggled his toes. At least he was pretty sure he did, he couldn't really tell with the tingling.

"Try walking it off." Miko grinned.

She was enjoying this too much. Optimus looked at her for a moment then stood up. He started walking around but it was more of a cross between a limp and a hop. Miko covered her mouth as she tried not to laugh. Rachet glared at her as the others watched intently. Optimus felt the pins and needles go up and down his leg. He stopped suddenly and looked at his toes. His feet were numb and felt like lead.

"I'm stuck..." he muttered as he lifted a leg and set it down again. The pins and needles increased a little.

"How do you deal with this!?" Smokescreen yelled as he gripped his hair. The kids laughed lightly.

"You get used to it." Jack said.

"Or you just never stop." Miko teased. They looked at each other for a moment eyes wide. Optimus patiently stared at his toes and waited until the feeling left.

"Hm." He muttered and looked at the others.

"I guess there's a lot more we have to learn about being human." Arcee said as they looked at each other.

"Well I won't have to worry." Smokescreen smirked as he pointed to himself. "I never stop!" He said. The others rolled their eyes and walked off.

An hour later...

"DANG IT!!!!" Smokescreen yelled from the other room. Rachet chuckled to himself and Optimus smiled slightly as the others looked towards the hallway.
