Transformers and Mutants

I was part of a group of people who had recently discovered to be mutants. Most of us just had general mutant abilities, and were able to do things like fly and control machinery. Some people had more powerful specific powers though, like being able to heal people.

The Autobot Transformers had apparently come to our planet and discovered that we had these mutant abilities; before this we thought we were just normal people. We were fighting against some evil forces, which included Megatron, who was too powerful for any of us to fight alone; I didn't want to do anything to gain his attention unless I was near Optimus Prime.

I was informed about my mutant powers, but wasn't terribly good at using them. They would work in spurts. I realized this was because I wasn't getting enough attention; the other mutants and the Autobots were off fighting or organizing our forces and I was just wandering around amongst them. I launched myself into the air, taking control over the radios in everyones' vehicles with my mutant powers and then broadcast my voice through them. I told them that I was tired of being ignored. After this they assigned me to a squad, so I could help them out.

We had managed to secure our planet for the moment against direct onslaught. But then someone was murdered in a hotel, a crime that was apparently committed by a member of the evil forces we were fighting against. Unsettled by this, I flew around the hotel looking for the murderer, but couldn't find any signs of him. The leader of my squad told me that my exuberance was admirable but that you couldn't solve crimes with those sort of tactics; you had to look for clues. We then went to some sort of greenhouse, looking for clues in the soil there.
