"Kiki, status report." Ryan asked through the comm link.
"Everything looks swell and at peace. It's actually a beautiful day today." Kiki responded as she continued to flap her wings, flying high in the sky, enjoying herself very much. Suddenly, the femme noticed something. "Scratch that, Ryan. I spot the Nemesis." She tapped her visor and scanned the ship. "A prisoner on board. Autobot being harmed for interrogation."
"That's not good. Kiki, keep on the DL and rescue that prisoner. Call for a ground bridge when you have him." Ryan ordered.
"Copy that." Kiki then cloaked herself so that no one can see or sense her. She flew into the Nemesis through the landing dock, making sure her landing was near silent. Making a wheel appear under each of her pedes to act like roller skates, the femme/predacon rolled silently yet quickly to her destination.
Optimus Prime sighed as he tried to rest his tired optics, utterly failing in the process. He may be able to hold his tongue during the 'interrogations' but he didn't know how much longer he can keep this up.
"Wow! Optimus Prime himself." a young voice said out of nowhere. A young femme appeared in his cell. "Hi. I'm Kiki and I'm here to help ya outta here." she said in a calm and gentle tone.
This youngling was a puzzle to the Prime. He guessed that she was a head smaller than Arcee. Her paint job was dark purple and dusty gold highlights. Kiki's helm had something that represented dark brown human hair, that would be medium length, braided down. The 'hair' being smooth metal. Over where human ears would be was, what looked like, a pair of headphones that matched her paint job, with antennas on them that looked like Optimus' antennas. Her optics were gold, a clear visor over them. A golden omega symbol was on the center of her chest.
That part of Kiki wasn't really the puzzling part. It was her predacon-like features that did. Her tail with a razor point waving back and forth calmly and her bat-like black wings on her back. If Kiki were to give a toothy smile, you would be able to see her fanged canines.
Kiki removed the bonds holding Optimus and looked up to him.
"Ok. I'm gonna call a ground bridge and you better follow me if you wanna live." she said sternly. Optimus slowly nodded his head. Kiki put a hand on her comm link. "Ryan, open up the ground bridge." Said portal opened and the strange femme lead the bot trough.
"I take it your mission was successful?" Ryan asked rhetorically with a small smirk. This mech was taller than his little friend. He was as tall as Optimus Prime. His paint job was ocean blue and white. His frame looked similar to when Optimus was Orion Pax. His optics were a deep blue. He had the same omega symbol that Kiki has but it was on his shoulders.
"Duh. I even scrambled their navigations and put an annoying virus through their systems. They're gonna be listening to the Gummy Bear Song for a while. Oh, and I put a tracking device on their ship. It's cloaked so they won't detect it." Kiki said with a proud smirk on her faceplates as the ground bridge closed behind her and Optimus. Ryan rolled his eyes.
"Must you always over due the mission?"
"Gimme a few years to come up with an answer, dude." The two chuckled.
"Alright then," the taller mech started as he clapped his hands together. "we might as well not leave you in the dark." Ryan walked up to Optimus and held out a servo. "My name is Ryan Pax, but you may call me Ryan. I am the leader of this organization." They shook hands with each other. Ryan motioned over to Kiki. "This is Kiki. She's my spy slash scout slash engineer and scientist." Optimus cleared her throat.
"I'm Optimus Prime. I am from Autobot Outpost Omega One. Where am I?"
"You are at the base of Omega. We are not aligned with Autobots or Decepticons, but we do help anyone, within reason, when needed." Ryan supplied as he motioned the Prime to follow him throughout the base. Kiki left to her own devices. Optimus noticed how everyone he saw in the base were all younglings. That, and that there was a lot of people here.
"How many do you have here?" Optimus asked, curiosity was clear in his tone.
"About, uh, 750 I believe." the mech answered. Optimus nearly dropped to the ground at that response. 750!? They basically have an army here! And here he was with five bots fighting against thousands. The two of them came to, what looked like, a medical ward.
"Ryan!" a cheery voice called out. Ryan turned to the source to see one of his second in commands, Daybreaker. By Optimus' guess, this femme was a good head taller than Arcee. Her paint job was a sunny yellow and white. Her helm had a dirty yellow metal that seemed to represent human hair that was left down. Her optics a bright blue. Seeker wings stood proudly on her back. The Omega symbol was in the same place as where Kiki put hers.
"Hello, Daybreaker. I see you're having a nice day, as per usual." Ryan said with a small smile.
"I heard that Kiki helped out an Autobot and I thought I should check it out." the sunny femme responded.
"That's quite nice of you. You can help me get him fixed up."
As Optimus was being tended to, he asked many questions. Like how they all got to Earth, when did they create this faction, who's in charge of what, and so on. He was amazed by how organized and skilled all the younglings were. They couldn't be any older than 15-18 vorns!
BOOM!
"What was that?" Optimus asked as Red Cross, one of the medics in Omega, was checking Optimus over one last time.
"Oh, that most likely was Kiki. Her inventions blowing up and all." He said as he waved a dismissive servo. "Alright, Mr. Prime, you're clear to go." Red Cross then walked away, grumbling about how he might have to fix Kiki again. Ryan then entered the room.
"I'm guessing you heard another famous 'Kiki explosion', huh?" the young leader stated more than asked Optimus.
"Yes. Is she always like that?" the Prime asked. Ryan nodded.
"Yeah, but you learn to love her. Come on, I'll have her escort you back to your base since you're in the all clear." Optimus nodded and followed the youngling into the main control room. "Nightbreaker." Ryan called to the mech behind him. "Get Kiki. I got a job for her." The mech nodded and ran off.
Nightbreaker is the twin brother of Daybreaker. He's a seeker like his twin, only a little taller and more built than his sister. Helm having 'hair' in a regular boy cut manner only with some spike and dirty blonde in color. His paint job consisted of midnight blue and black. His optics a dark blue color. His Omega symbol in the center of his chest.
"Yo! Ya need me for somethin'?" Kiki asked as she walked in.
"Yes. Escort Optimus back to his base, would you?" Ryan said. Kiki did a mock solute.
"Sir, yes, sir." The little femme hybrid looked at the Prime. "Come on." Optimus then followed her through the ground bridge.
"This the spot?" Kiki asked. Optimus nodded.
"Thank you, Kiki. And be sure to give my thanks to Ryan and Red Cross."
"No problem. I'll be able to deliver the message." The femme put a thumbs up. Optimus nodded and then began to walk away until, "Hey!" The Prime turned to look at the youngling. "If ya ever need anything, don't be a stranger, alright? Oh! And, please don't tell anybody about us. We like to let ourselves be known when WE feel like it." Optimus nodded before transforming and driving off.
