Thanks for reading and reviewing! 3


"Optimus, where do you think the insecticon's got the technology to clone themselves to this capacity?" Prowl asked an he came to stand beside his leader.

"They couldn't have done it with anything made from Earth" Jazz noted out loud to the other two.

Optimus's optics widened "no" he said mostly to himself.

"Optimus?"

"Could it be that Shockwave is working with the insecticons?" Optimus asked his 2nd and 3rd in command.

"Seems like the logical answer to all this" Prowl replied.

"But what are they up to?"

"Let's go inside and see if we can find anything out, maybe Shockwave is already in the factory."

"Don't worry, Prowler we'll find out what he's up to" Jazz assured his mate as the two bots made their way inside with Optimus.


"That's three for me!" Sideswipe grinned to his brother.

"Fragger, I did most the damage to that last one" the gold Lambo growled.

"Yeah, but I got the last shot in, so that's my kill"

"Five ,six" Bluestreak counted from behind the two brothers.

"Look, now Blue is winning because you were distracting me" Sideswipe said as he pushed his twin.

"What?! Me? You are the distraction here"

"Four!"

"No! That one was mine!" Sunstreaker cried as he threw a punch at his brother.


Fracture and her team walked through the trail of broken insecticon frames littering the ground. Her rifle aimed at the sky as she effectively helped shoot the robotic bug out of the sky. "They're endless" she exclaimed.

"Just keep shooting" Astrotrain told her as the seekers flew by overhead in all directions.


As dawn broke over the sky Starscream onlined his optics. Skyfire's arm around him. Starscream turned to see his bonded staring out into space again.

"Skyfire, you're brooding" he announced.

"What?….oh Starscream, I didn't notice you were awake".

"No you didn't. What is it? Still thinking about the aerial bots?" Starscream asked as he rose to his feet.

"Hnn, I think we should just take a peak, make sure they are alright. I feel like we should".

"We don't have time for that. We have a shipment to deliver to the Oa nebula" Starscream said as he tapped his foot.

Skyfire shuttered his optics and vented air "I guess you're right".


Magnus, Hot Shot, the dinobots and the protectobots arrived at the factory.

"I shall dispose of these disgusting drones" Sky Lynx said as he smacked a few with his tail.

"Hot Shot take the Dinobots and go help keep cover for the protectobots."

"Right, Snarl, Swoop let's go!" the youngling said before charging off in to the battle.


Optimus and the Autobots were making their way to the factory. Optimus transformed and just plowed through all the insecticons, when the frames of the Decepticons came into view.

"Megatron!" he yelled as he transformed and lept toward his rival.

"Prime!" Megatron aimed his arm gun at the red and blue mech.

"Megatron listen, we believe Shockwave has something to do with this".

"I don't care what you believe" Megatron said as he took a swing at Optimus.

"Megatron, will you just trust me?"

"Ha! Trust you? Why should I trust you?" The tyrant asked.

"Because your life is at stake, if you didn't order Shockwave to do this. It is apparent he is up to something that can harm even you!"

"Shockwave would never betray me, unlike some"

"I have never betrayed you, I was the one betrayed" Optimus answered as he landed a punch on the other mech.

Megatron fell to the ground, Optimus jumped on him. "Now I know you aren't stupid Megatron, you the insecticons could not have done this alone" Optimus continued to try and reason with his bonded while they remained tussling with each other.


Skyfire and Starscream reached the site of the factory.

"By Primus! Would you look at that!" Skyfire exclaimed seeing the insecticons clones.

"Hmm…. Interesting maybe should lend them some support".

"If you insist" Skyfire budge the smaller jet.

"Not because I care! I want to study one of those clones. I would like to know how they were able to make so many".

"Why does that interest you?" Skyfire asked.

"I would like to reproduce the science and make a clone army of myself" Starscream's smile said he was quite pleased with himself.

"Starscream" Skyfire said with a sigh before his bonded flew down into the battle below them.

Skyfire followed behind, locking his cannons into battle position. He release his missles into a bundle of clones.

"Woah!" Skywarp reeled back at the sudden blast from the sky.

"Hey, hey you guys, look it's Skyfire!" Slingshot shouted to his teammates.

"Starscream! Thundercracker shouted. "And he brought Skyfire".

"Starscream is helping us?" Powerglide asked as he hovered close to the others.

"Only if it benefits him" Thrust answered as he flew by.

"Har har" Starscream's responded in a sarcastic tone.

"Screamer!" Skywarp glomped his old wingmate. "It' s good to have you back".

"Hmmph!"

"Oh come on, you know you missed us" the black jet grinned goofily.

"Like I would miss you morons" Starscream retorted.

"Aww, well we love you too Screamer"
