In the middle of the Nevada desert, two Cybertronians laid. One large and the other slightly smaller. Arcee and Cliffjumper laid on the hard ground of Earth, both still reeling from their fight with the Decepticons and Shockwave. The fembot was first to speak, "Think Shockwave
survived?". "Hope so, I want a rematch." Cliffjumper replied while chuckling. Arcee gets up quickly and stands in front of the red mech, and offers him her hand. Cliffjumper gets up on one knee with a grunt. "Let's find Optimus… partner." He look at her and smirks, taking her hand. As they walk towards the setting sun, Cliff starts to speak. "Rich with energon, huh? Hope, the whole rock don't look like this." Arcee keeps walking, not responding. Cliffjumper doesn't mind, getting use to the silence and continues talking. "Reminds me of the time I was lost in the Sea of Rust back on Cybertron, except I was seperated from my unit with absolutely no one to talk to!" As he finished Arcee spoke up, " Talk at?" she teased. "Admit it, you love the company!" Cliffjumper chuckled. The continued to walk, Arcee began to wonder how they were supposed to find Optimus and his team.
{In a secret military missile silo}
"OPTIMUS!", Ratchet the Autobot medic yelled, for their leader. The giant Prime sighed and walked over to the medic from his station at a monier. "What is wrong, old friend?" he replied walking up. Ratchet looked at Optimus and pointed to a pair of dots on the monitor's screen. " Two Cybertronian life signals just came out of a space bridge at the coordinates that were in your message." Optimus's optics slightly widened in surprise, he looked at the monitor, he suddenly asked, "Autobot or Decepticon?". The rest of team Prime walked up to the pair hearing the conversation. Ratchet looked at them and back to Optimus, saying " Unknown, but they are on the move, about 50 miles from the town of Jasper." Optimus nodded his head and looked at the two other autobots, Bulkhead and Bumblebee. " Ratchet open the ground bridge, Bulkhead, Bumblebee, TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT!" Optimus said sternly and transformed, they drove through the vortex and disappeared.
{At Cliff's & Arcee's location}
Arcee and Cliffjumper were still walking both talking about strategies of finding Optimus Prime and his team. Suddenly a green and blue groundbridge opened behind them, surprising them both, as they spin around they see three strange machines driving towards them. Both bots get their blasters and point them at the oncoming machines. They stand their guard. The machines then transformed into Cybertronians, all autobots. The tallest a blue and red mech walks calmly toward them and states, " I am Optimus Prime, and this is Bulked and Bumblebee, we are Team Prime, are you Autobots or Decepticons?" Cliffjumper steps forward and cautiously says, " I'm Cliffjumper, we are both Autobots. It is an honor to meet you, sir." Optimus nodded his head as, Bulkhead gives a greeting as does Bumblebee beeping his. Cliffjumper continues speaking in a friendly manner, " And non-social is Arcee, we both came from Cybertron together via spacebridge, we were held captive by Starscream and Shockwave, they wanted to find you and your team. Lucky Arcee destroyed the computer and erased the coordinates." Ratchet had a look of relief on his faceplate. The others walked up to Arcee and Cliff, Bulkhead looked them over and said, " Well now that you are on Earth it's time to get you a vehicle mode. You'll need it to blend in." Arcee and Cliffjumper looked at each other. Both ready to start a new era in the war and their lives.
