" Gunilla, would you mind..." Ironhide started to say.
Gunilla smiled wickedly and nodded, jumping down from Ironhide's shoulder and speeding off after the twins.
Several " ouch!", " eep" and " ow that hurts!" were heard before Gunilla waltzed into the Rec. Room with her cannons smoking and still whirring.
" The rodents are eliminated for now," Gunilla annouced climbing back up Ironhide. Sideswipe then sulked into the room with several dents, scratches, and scorch marks on his metal skin. Sunstreaker shuffled in behind him with even more wounds.
" I don't want to know, I just don't!" Ratchet moaned somewhere from the back.
" So, any others you would like to hear?" Ironhide asked, opening an Energon cup towards the Twins to make sure there was nothing in it, then took a sip.
" I got an idea... The Battle of Iacon!" Shadow Stalker yelled form the back of the room.
" OOOOOOH! We haven't heard this one yet!" Anika squealed.
" SHUSH!" Gunilla growled, settling on Ironhide's shoulder.
" About 39 vorns ago, when Cybertron was launched into darkness, a fierce battle took place to guard Iacon, and, the Allspark. Many brave Autobots lost their lives protecting the Allspark. And this is how it happened. I was talking to Chromia, outside the fortress of Iacon, when a bullet snipped my cheek," Ironhide started, tracing the silver scar on his cheek," My cannon's instantly whirred and started firing at the attackers, which was an elite squad of Decepticons. Soon, most of the Autobots, except the medics, sparklings, and sparkling carers, were sucked into the ferocious battle. Autobot after Autobot and Decepticon after Decepticon fell dead along their comrades, and one of the Decepticons seemed to have a hard time firing at us. Her piercing blue optics kept searching her fellow Decepticons to see not even a speck of mercy. Finally, she gave up and hid inside a small, metal building. Of course, I thinking she was getting some giant weapon, brought the building down, and the Decepticons retreated. Optimus then asked us to search for survivors, whether they be of any faction. We pulled her out of the rubble, and saw she was severly injured. So we fixed her up, and she became an Autobot. In fact, she's in the room right now," Ironhide finished.
Shadow Stalker slid down in her seat. " I'm not here anymore... The black femme you see here, is only a mirage, she's actually in... Italy, or Greece. So don't bother looking for her," she whispered. The crowd present laughed at Shadow Stalker's joke.
" Shadow, we all know it's you, give it up!" Sideswipe chirped.
Shadow Stalker laughed. " Well, all I can say, is I'm really glad I'm here right now and now working for those misarable slaggin glitches..."
" Aren't we all?" Optimus asked, placing his arm around Shadow Stalker's side.
" EWWWWWWWWWWW!" Laura, Tyra, and Lex said, gagging.
" Awwww!" Gunilla, Mason, John, and Anika chimed in, smiling.
" Alright, lovey dovey times over! Tell another one Hide!" Shadow Stalker chuckled.
" YA!" all seven kids chimed in.
" Tomorrow, right now, we could all use some recharge," Ironhide stated, getting up and stretching, then proceeded to walk to his quarters, Chromia following.
" You are the greatest," Chromia whispered, hugging Ironhide.
" And don't you ever forget," Ironhide replied, walking inside his quarters.
