Chapter 2

As everyone suited up Capt Lennox said "Alright men once we land Epps, Stinger you two with Iornhide Pandora, Ringer and Snaps your with Sideswipe and-"

But before he could continue Silvia Pandora whined, "Oh come on I am not going with that self centered, egotistical ass hole!"

"Oh we all know you love me!" Sideswipe laughed.

"Fine then Pandora with Iornhide and Stinger with Sideswipe. Now as I was saying Velpe, Fernandez, Stevens your with Bumble Bee and finally Powers your with me and Optimus. You good with that Prime?"

"Yes, now lets board the plane." Optimus responded "And when we arrive I would like a party to scout the area near the source of the spike."

"We got it, right boys?" Cassie Velpe volunteered.

"Yes ma'am!" Fernandez and Stevens responded as Bumble Bee nodded.

"Alright lets move out!" Lennox shouted as everyone boarded the plane, something told him this mission would be different than anything he'd been through before.

…..

"And I say its a waste of time and energy!" Starscream shouted.

"And I am the Leader of the Decepticons, not you, you will do as your ordered!" Megatron exclaimed.

Just as Starscream was about to shout something again Thundercracker interrupted, "Screamer lets just get this over with, we all know how you feel and we all know how this will end."

"Fine." Starscream growled, "But this had better not take long, I have much more important things to be doing."

"Decepticons move out." Megatron ordered then transformed into the air and flew north east, towards the Amazonian rainforest.

…..

"Lets go boys, we don't know how long we have, Cobra could already be packing their bags." Duke said impatiently.

"Yea we get it big man, the jet ready?" Ripcord asked.

"And standing by, lets go!" Duke continued and left then everyone got up and followed him to the hanger.

"Hey there pretty lady."Ripcord smiled as he and Duke came into the hanger and spotted Scarlett.

"Hey there brainless wonder." Scarlett smirked

"Scarlett once we're all loaded take off, we need to get there ASAP. Cobra could already be gone." Duke said, ignoring Ripcord and Scarlett.

"Yes sir." she replied as they boarded the super advanced jet, "So we calling dibs on who gets who this time sir?"

"Hey if so I got the Doc, you know Mindbender!" Ripcord interjected from behind them.

"I'll take care of Zartan." Heavy Duty said as he caught up with the trio.

"And I have that bitch, the Baroness." Scarlett growled as they came into the small two seat cockpit."

"Cobra is mine." Duke said tonelessly.

"Hey where we sitting?" Ripcord inquired, as he folded his arms.

"We are sitting in the back with the rest of the strike force." Heavy Duty said grabbing him by the arm and dragging him to the rear of the jet.

"But-hey! How come he sits up front!" Ripcord exclaimed as the cockpit door slid shut.

"Lets take off." Duke ordered sitting in the second seat in the cockpit.

"Yes sir, raising the ramp." And as the ramp was being raised she turned on a comm link and said, "Alright boys, sit down and buckle up! We're heading to the rodeo!"

Then they took off and headed south towards Cobra.

…..

"I have much more important tings to be doing! I should not be on watch duty!" Dr. Mindbender complained.

"You wont in a few seconds when I kill you, now shut up!" the Baroness threatened.

Just then Cobra came into the room and inquired, "It has been an hour, has their been anything worth mentioning?"

"Nope, just the regula- now wait a second. Zartan come look at this." the Baroness said confused.

Zartan came over and saw three main groups coming at them from three directions, North, West south west and east south east.

Cobra came over and leaned over the two and said, " They never send that many, somethings wrong. Looks like someone else caught that overload."

All of them were silent for a moment when Pyrosa strode in covered in grease.

"Its fixed, just a little wrench in the works is all." She smirked, "Whats with the silence, stunned by my splendor?"

"The 'Joes aren't the only ones who caught the overload, there is two other groups heading towards us. And its impossible to find who is who, or who is the weakest group to try to break through." Zartan informed.

"Oh.....well then I'll be back in a minute." She said then bolted out of the room and down several corridors.

"Prepare to leave, we might have been able to hold the 'Joes but not all of that." Cobra ordered as he gestured at the mass on the screen.

"Yes sir, we'll get everything prepared." the Baroness responded then she and Zartan got up and left. Dr. Mindbender went to follow but Cobra stopped him.

"You stay here I need to know the moment they arrive, though they will probably make themselves known." the he too left.

"Great!" he sighed flopping down into a chair, "They all go and I get stuck with scanner duty!"

"Where did everyone go?" a teen voice behind him asked.

Turning around in his spinning chair he replied, "They all went t- whoa!What is that?"

Pyrosa was in a black suit with red accents, had a small jet pack on her back and was holding a helmet under her arm.

"Shut that mouth boy, now what were you saying?" she demanded.

"Uh *erm*. Well they went to make preparations to leave." the Doc answered as he closed his maw.

She smirked, "Good boy, now go watch the screens." then ran off down the halls to find Cobra.
