-Begin Transmission-

As Sideswipe emerged from the crater he was greeted by two bots standing a short distance away. He quickly summoned his cannon and called out to Sunny to stay down. "Identify yourself!"

"At ease," Prime stated as both he and Ironhide raised their arms. "My name is Optimus Prime and this is Ironhide," he said nodding at the silent weapons specialist standing beside him.

"Prime? Ironhide?" Sides asked.

"What?" Ironhide studied the red bot for a minute before identifying him. "Sideswipe!"

"Don't forget me!" Sunny called out as he emerged from the creator-cradling a bot in his arms.

"Sunstreaker," he growled.

"Be nice Hidey!" Sunny replied - hurt in his voice as he gestured toward the bot in his arms.

""What?" Hide took a step closer-studying the bot-femme he corrected as he took in her appearance-Primus she looked almost like, "Chromia?"

"See he remembers!" Sides said with a grin as he stood beside his brother. "And you said he wouldn't!"

"Here," Sunny passed the femme to her mate-being careful not to jar her. "I'm not carrying her around anymore!"

Both Prime and Ironhide could tell that he didn't mean it. "How?" Hide gasped as he stared at his sparkmate whom he had thought was dead-killed by deceptacon's back on Cybertron.

"Me and Sides where ah," Sunny glanced at Optimus-a guilty expression on his face. "Going to follow you," he said softly.

Optimus merely shook his head in acknowledgement to Hide's surprise. Wasn't he going to yell at them for disobeying his order to remain on Cybertron?

"I figured you would," Prime stated. "I was beginning to wonder if you two had actually obeyed me for once."

"Anyway, we were preparing to depart when we intercepted a Con transmission-they were moving a group of POW's to be offlined," Sunny said.

"And you two decided to assist them?" Hide joked but his grip on Chromia never loosened.

"Yep," Sides grinned at his brother. "We ambushed the Con detail-they had six autobot prisoners, with five deceptacon's guarding them," he shrugged. "They didn't stand a chance."

"But what happened to the others?" questioned Prime.

"Their about twenty parces behind us," supplied Sunny. "We took Chromia with us because we knew that Ratchet had went with you and she requires more help then Redline can provide."

"Redline?!"

"Yep, Hatchet would be proud of her-she handles herself very well under pressure," Sunny stated. "She managed to fix most of the serious injuries-but she was only trained to be a field medic."

"Who else?" questioned Prime.

-End Transmission-

TBD

Vote or not: (don't matter to me)

-Who else should be in the group? 1 down 5 to go in the POW group…

Autobots: Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Redline (couldn't think of a name so I used my gmail name; who she is and her relationship to Ratchet will be explained in the next couple of chapters)
