Techna sprung to her pedes just in time to doge Starscream's punch. She smirked, knowing all of his moves and techniques. Starscream, however, was getting angry. How did this new autobot femme know exactly what he was going to do and how to deflect it? What made it worse was that she was only doing defense, never trying to harm him. It's almost as if she didn't want him to be hurt. Techna swung her leg at his so he fell onto his back. Starscream glared up at her in hatred.

"I see the autobots have a new lackey." Starscream snarled. Techna's emerald optics narrowed at him in anger.

"Not exactly." She hissed. Before she could add anything she was shot at by Starscream and thrown back. She groaned and tried to stand but Starscream kicked her in the tank. She recoiled painfully and deployed her blaster, taking a single shot at him. Due to her lack of training the shot had missed the SIC but hit a nearby drone. She glanced around frantically hoping that another autobot would help her, but everyone had their servos full. She stood slowly and glared at the smirking decepticon. "I'm surprised Screamer, you seem to have no guilt whatsoever for the death of your trine." Her words struck him like a Dark Energon blast. Apparently he had lost them in this dimension too.

"How did you know about them? No autobot knows the truth!" Starscream hissed, though there was pain in his optics Techna felt a little bad for using his pain against him but this was not the Starscream she grew up with.

"They were blown up while on a 'spy' mission in Iacon, killing them and autobots near them." Techna continued, crossing her arms. Starscream tried to punch her but she easily dodged it and frowned. "And you were forced to watch through the camera planted on Thundercracker." Starscream froze. How the Pit did she know all that?

"Who are you?" he growled. Techna's optics narrowed and she smirked.

"An autobot from another dimension where I watched alongside you as your trine offlined," Techna responded curtly. Starscream tackled her in a fit of anger and was about to extinguish her spark, like he had done to Cliffjumper, when a blur of red came and threw him off of her. Techna gasped and stared up at the red seeker femme. "F-Firestrike?" Firestrike ignored her and stormed up to Starscream. None of them noticed that the only decepticon left was Starscream.

"Starscream, I swear to Primus if you ever touch my daughter again you're going to find yourself without a spark." Firestrike growled. Starscream backed away before transforming and fleeing. Firestrike turned to Techna, who was gaping at her. "Techna, are you alright?" Techna stood up and clenched her fists.

"Why did you call me your daughter when I'm from a different dimension? My Carrier is dead!" Techna asked. Optimus approached the femmes with a frown.

"I suggest we take this back to the base. Firestrike, why aren't you with the other arealbots in Europe?" the leader said.

"I heard about Techna's arrival and I had to see for myself." Firestrike said before the ground bridge opened. Techna stormed by everyone and walked into the base. StarRacer turned and looked at her from her spot on the floor next to Mirage. She couldn't help but noticed how angered the femme looked. Starscream walked up to her with a worried expression.

"Techna, what's wrong?" Starscream asked. When he saw the others enter with a new femme, one with green optics, he grew even more confused. StarRacer was confused too, she didn't know who this femme was. The humans got a scolding from Ratchet as they walked up to the balcony.

"Autobots, I'm sure you remember Firestrike, the SIC for the arealbots in Europe." Optimus said. They nodded and welcomed her, but Techna continued to glare. "Firestrike, I believe you owe Techna an explanation."

"What're you talking about Creator?" StarRacer asked. She didn't know why Techna was mad or why Firestrike had to explain things to her. "What did Firestrike do?"

"Apparently she faked her death and came to this dimension and left her family behind!" Techna snapped. StarRacer didn't think she sounded angry, only upset. "That's what really happened, wasn't it?" Everyone in the room was silent. Ratchet narrowed his optics, curious as to what happened on the field.

"Che cosa è successo durante la battaglia?"(What happened during the battle?) Mirage asked. Techna explained to those not present her fight with Starscream and how Firestrike had saved her, claiming to be her Carrier. StarRacer stared up at the red femme in amazement. She was from Techna's dimension too? And Techna's Carrier? Everyone was silent and Firestrike looked guilty for what had happened.

"Techna, I really did lose my memories in that crash back in our dimension and I did become an autobot." Firestrike sighed. "But when the explosion was about to happen I was taken into the Pocket Dimension by Prima and he restored my memories. I begged him to let me come back I swear, but he didn't allow it. He said he had plans for you and I." StarRacer looked up at her Creator and saw that he felt guilty as well. Techna saw him too and narrowed her optics.

"You knew, didn't you?" she asked. Optimus sighed and shook his head.

"I knew she was from another dimension, but I did not know that she was your Carrier." Prime claimed. Techna's wing twitched but she sighed and turned back to her Carrier.

"Techna, I'm sorry for leaving you guys, but please tell me how the twins are doing." Firestrike pleaded. Techna's optics softened at the mention of her brothers.

"Creator disowned them a long time ago. They haven't grown at all and were always picked on by the cons. I have no idea how they are right now." Techna answered. StarRacer wondered what the twins had gone through because of their size. Firestrike seemed furious at the news.

"Megatronus did what?" she asked. StarRacer was slightly taken back by her change in attitude, but it made sense to her that the femme was protective of her sons. "Things have changed a lot since I've been gone."

"He also refused to help when Shockwave nearly offlined Techna." Starscream mumbled. "But I can honestly say that the twins are safe and sound at the base probably yelling at Ratchet to let them into the med bay." StarRacer giggled a little, trying to imagine tiny robots yelling at the grumpy medic.

"But tell me what's happened to you since I've been gone." Firestrike said as she turned to her daughter. Techna sighed and told her about what had happened from the day she disappeared to how she ended up her battling this dimensions Starscream. Firestrike was confused and worried, why would Megatron treat his own sparklings like that? "You've been raising Brains and Wheelie this whole time?"

"Uncle Megatron's mean." StarRacer said and pouted. Firestrike, Techna, and Starscream all looked at her in shock.

"I don't believe I've informed you yet, but Megatron is my brother. Or at least in this dimension he is." Optimus sighed. StarRacer giggled as the visitors looked close to glitching. Firestrike soon shook it off and turned to Techna.

"Techna, may I speak to you alone?" she asked. Techna shrugged and they both went outside. Before Firestrike could say anything she was wrapped in a tight hug from Techna.

"I-I'm sorry for being angry." Techna whimpered. "T-Thank Primus you're okay." Firestrike returned the embrace with a sigh.

"Techna I understand why you were upset, but you must listen to me. You're the only one who can end this war peacefully back home." Firestrike informed. Techna's optics brightened happily. "But there's one catch."

"What is it?" she asked quickly. Firestrike's optics watered as she looked down at her.

"The ancient strategy you must use will burn out your spark…"
