jack pov

I woke up to the sound of Arcee revving her engine. I rushed to put on my clothes and ran to the garage door and opened it up."Shh are you crazy you'll wake up my mom!" I said to Arcee, I can't believe her first she dares say I don't know anything about lose now she is making so much noise that it could wake up mom and if there is one thing I've learned in thousands of years it's that you don't wake a sleeping Dragoness."Grab your helmet it's go time." She said as she rolled forward. "Oh it's Saturday." I groaned, I mean come on even dragons take a day off and boy with the job I have I really need every off day I can get. "You can watch cartoons back at base with bumblebee." She said back at me. I don't usually resort to violence but I was seriously considering throwing her out of the garage literally.

"Cartoons I'm 1,116 years old thank you miss bossy. And FYI I'll have you know that I do indeed know about lose you may not think it but I was still considered a hatchling when we went to war with the humans. I watched thousands of dragons die, with their throat slit or a stab to their heart so don't you dare presume to know anything about me Arcee, and another thing and consider this a valuable lesson, don't ever say that to a dragon who watched that war with their own eyes as the earth ran red with their blood." I snapped at her and closed the door but I still managed to catch her saying to leave a note for my mom and that she worries, playing it like what I had just told her wasn't a big deal and that made my blood boil.

I quickly wrote a note to mom and went into the garage and grabbed my helmet and got on Arcee. We rode in silence for a while until we got out of the city. "Hang on jack." Said Arcee before she sped off down the road. I was surprised by this but hung on anyway. "Woah what's with you Arcee?" I asked. "Just thought you might enjoy the ride if you weren't getting shoot at." She said to me and I couldn't help bug smirk. "Oh bring it." I said as we sped towards the base.

Miko pov

I was with Bulkhead at the sand dunes. "Ok are you ready?" I asked him in excitement. "Miko I'm supposed to be protecting you." Bulkhead said a little unsure if we should be doing this. "Bulkhead I'm strapped inside ten tons of metal muscle I'm protected. Besides it's not like I can't protect myself. I said to him. Bulk started to drive down the the dune. I yelled in joy of dune bashing. When we got to the bottom bulk said we had better go to base. "Hey bulk what's the deal with Arcee?" I asked him in curiosity.

"Arcee just lost her partner Cliffjumper the day jack and Raff met us. Though Cliffjumper isn't her first partner, her first was his brother Tailgate, he was killed right in front of arcee during the war. That's all I know about it as for right now, Cliffjumper was the only one who could get Arcee to open up."

"Well I'm sure she will open up soon enough." I said. "What do you mean Miko?" He asked. "I mean she is with jack, if anyone can get her to open up its jack." "How do you know that Miko?" "Because bulk I've been around jack for thousands of years and plus arcee may not know it but she and jack are more alike then she thinks." "How are they so alike?" "Jack...lost his sister and father in the Great War between the dragons and humans. His sisters name was Sapphire and she was his twin, in fact you couldn't find one without the other, they were very close and when the war started they fought tooth and claw together against the humans but in one of the final battles Sapphire was blind sighted and was stabbed in the heart, jack blames himself to this very day that he didn't do enough we've tried many times to tell him that he did everything he could but he won't believe it unless of course it came from his twin herself."

"Wow they really are a lot alike, but who was his farther?" He asked. "I don't know the name of his dad but I'm guessing that he was the past alpha." I said to him. We continued the ride in silence as I thought about those dark times during the war.

Raf pov

I was at the salt flats with bumblebee playing a racing game with him. I was wining until he pushed me off the road and won the race. I groaned at losing the game but it still was a fun game. "haha I won Raf." bumblebee said to me. I laughed in happiness, I was happy that I got partnered with someone like me. "Hey bee how well do you all know Arcee?" I asked him. "well she and Cliffjumper arrived on earth together three years ago and ever since then they have been partners until yesterday when Cliff was killed by the cons. It's just like with her last one Tailgate, he was murdered in front of Arcee long ago. bee said I felt sorry for her, but I took comfort that jack was partnered with her and I told him that.

Bee asked why and I told him the story of jacks sister and father who were lost in the war between the humans and dragons. Bee was surprised that jack and Arcee were so much alike. We headed to the base and kept talking about everything.

at base

the autobots and dragons entered the base all talking excitedly about the fun they had and said they hadn't had that much fun in thousands of years. Optimus and ratchet were getting ready to leave for somewhere and Optimus told the others to remain at base. Arcee protested about staying promoting jack to groan and walk away and change to dragon form. Miko and Raf changed as well as Optimus and ratchet left. Jack asked Arcee about the activates list. Arcee however just said she was going on petrol and told bee to come with her. Bee complained but went ahead anyway.

I glared at the tunnel that Arcee and bee left from, she is so bossy that it hurts. I felt someone watching me and I turned to see bulk looking at me with pity. I glanced at Raf and Miko and noticed they wouldn't look at me, I put two and two together and realized that they had told bee and bulk about my sister and father that were killed during the war. "Yes it's true they were killed during the war bulk." I said.

Bulk was about to say something but the alarm went off saying someone was up top. Me Miko and Raf ran down the hall so we were hidden from view. It was fowler and again he was yelling at bulk on how prime wasn't their and complained about the mine explosion. I was losing patients with fowler very quickly and I had started to growl quietly. Apparently fowler heard and asked since when do the bots keep pets. We walked out from behind the corner and snarled at fowler.

Fowler was shocked that their were dragons in the base but that didn't last long as he pulled a gun out and pointed it at us. We were in rage that he dare point a gun at us, I could sense bulk was recording this to the bots later. "Dragons, you brought these stupid beasts into your base have you bots lost your minds!" He said. I roared in anger and reared back and pinned fowler down and snarled in his face showing my fangs. "Don't you dare call us beasts when your family started the war that destroyed families and burned homes. It's your fault that my sister is dead! So don't give me that crap about how our kind started it." I said to him before forcing my way into his mind and showed him the truth. "Now get out of here human!" I roared at him and he ran to the elevator faster then I thought a human his size could move. I snorted in satisfaction.

About ten minutes later an SOS from fowler was received but the coordinates were incomplete and bulk just brushed it off. While I hated fowler I still didn't think it was right to just let him be taken by the cons, I told bulk this and also added that he knew the location of the base.

Bulk activated the bridge and said I was in charge, then he left, me and Raf noticed a few minutes to late that Miko had followed bulk through. Me and Raf went through the bridge and I caught the faintest sound of arcees voice on the comm but I ignored it because I didn't want to listen to her being bossy. When we got there we saw Miko covering bulk by burning the cons there were already twenty cons burned and offline. Me and Raf joined in and laid waste to all the cons on the ground by the time we were done there were cons all over the place either burned, bitten or clawed. Soon the cons were shooting at us from on top of the ship, all three of us flew up to the ship while bulk climbed up the cliff.

When we got to the top of the ship we started bitting and burning the cons, one hide behind a dish of some sort but it didn't save him from being burned to a crisp even the dish was melted into molt and metal. Bulk took care of the rest by blasting them. We headed inside the ship to find fowler but it seemed that we wouldn't find him at the pace we were searching so I decided that we should split up. Me and Raf went in one direction and Miko and bulk went in the other. We came across two cons who were talking about the human they had in the brig, we were about to take them out when we heard the sound of engines which turned out to be arcee and bee who took the cons out. Me and Raf came out of our hiding spot and Raf was happy to see bumblebee though I wasn't as glad to see arcee, we ran down the hallway and came across bulk and Miko. Arcee complained about bringing us along, at that I rounded on her and roared in arcees face which caused her to step back. I told her that we could take care of ourselves and that she shouldn't complain that we were here because it was us that took care of all those cons outside the ship. At that arcee and bee were surprised that most of that was us.

I told them that fowler was in the brig and that we needed to hurry. We ran into a control room of sorts where arcee told us to wait for them saying that we would slow them down, my eyes narrowed so much that you couldn't even see my pupils. I couldn't believe that she said that they left the room and I noticed an odd kind of schematic on the screen Raf said that it was a serious equation, he tried finding a place to plug in his flash drive but before he could a con walked in an noticed us and started shooting at us we ran out into the hall to have more room to move. We got to a good spot and took the con out when arcee and the others raced past with fowler, we ran after them all the while arcee was scolding us for not staying in the room. I was annoyed at this, oh yeah we were so going to stay in a small room were we couldn't move around with a con in there and if we changed into human form we would be vulnerable to attack.

When we got back we put fowler on a gurney and then got a call from Optimus asking for a bridge, when he and ratchet came through ratchet was holding his right arm which looked burned. Optimus started welding a cast on ratchets arm, Miko asked what happened and ratchet said they fought an army of undead cybertronians, at that bit of information I was shocked. Optimus wasn't happy that bulk had supposedly taken us with him to which he said it wouldn't happen again, I said that we went there to help out in finding fowler and that we weren't helpless hatchlings. Arcee said that this was war and that they didn't have time for the help of stupid dragons, I growled lowly at this but then I snapped when she said that I didn't know about lose and that all dragons were dumb especially the ones that died. I lunged at her but bulk and bee held me back all the while glaring at arcee, they knew about my sister and father and understood my pain. I calmed down after awhile and so did arcee and she said sorry and that she was just upset about the recent events, I accepted her apology and said it was ok and that I understood, but said I couldn't be apart of another war and lose more people I cared about so I flew off, Miko and Raf said they were staying.

That night I was working on my bike when Miko showed up with bulk and tried to get me to come back but I just don't think I could get envolved in another war. Miko kept trying but I said I wouldn't go back and that I was sorry. They left and I continued working until I went to bed but I didn't sleep right away because I was thinking about all that had happened lately and how much I wanted to go back when Miko asked but I didn't and with that final thought I went to sleep.

The next morning I went to work and was locking my bike up at the bike rack when I heard a familiar voice saying nice bike, I turned and saw arcee in her vehicle mode, I told her that I respected Optimus and all but I didn't want to be in another war. Arcee said Optimus didn't send her and that no one was asking me to get envolved in the war, I asked if we both agreed on that then why was she here and what she said surprised me, she said that she had just lost someone she cared about and that she didn't know if it was the grief talking or if I was growing on her but she didn't want to say goodbye. I thought about what she said and realized that I wanted to go with her and I was already involved in the war with the fact I had helped the autobots in getting fowler.

I said that I would go with her and I got on and we drove off to the base where the autobots were just leaving, I changed and asked where they were going and Miko answered that it was space and I'll admit that I had a bit of concern wash over me for arcee and the bots. The drove through the bridge and I sent a silent pray that they would be ok. A few minutes later ratchet and Optimus were talking about the cons being unable to lock onto cybertron, Raf said that the linked radio telescope dishes in Texas could most likely lock onto cybertron, after a bit of a discussion ratchet bridged us to Texas where Raf downloaded the schematics for the space bridge and got into a hacking war with the cons. I heard a noise and turned to see a tentacle that throw us around, we ran out into an open room where we saw a skinny con with no face just a visor, we changed to dragon form and fought the con but he ended up escaping, but what we didn't know was that a small drone was filming the battle and by the time we realized we were being watched the drone flew after the con who had cut the hard lines.

We got back at base where Raf gave the schematics to ratchet who proceeded to tell arcee how to overload the space bridge, a few minutes later the bridge opened and Raf asked if they were dead when no one came through, I didn't believe that they were gone, they couldn't be. The first to come through was Optimus who was covered in scratches, the next was bulk who looked unharmed and finally arcee and bee came through but when I saw arcee I was immediately scared, she looked badly hurt. I walked over to her and placed my head on hers and entered her mind.

Arcees mind

I walked around in a completely white room looking for arcee, I found her in the center of the room. She was surprised I was here, I told her that she couldn't die now and that she wouldn't, her team needed her and I did to, she got me to come back and I wasn't about to loose her like I lost my dad and sister. She said she wouldn't give up and that she would keep fighting. At that I smiled, what arcee didn't know was that I had already seen the memories of her past two partners and it surprised me how much me and arcee were alike.

real world

when I opened my eyes I could feel everyone looking at me but I didn't care I only cared about arcee waking up which she did and I smiled at her knowing she would be alright, bee set her down on her feet and she smiled back at me. Miko asked if we had to pretend we never saw them and just go about our regular lives. Even if Optimus said yes I knew that we wouldn't leave but thankfully he said that we would continue to be partnered with the bots and I couldn't be happier that we were staying with them.

unknown location

two huge dragons walked onto a ledge of a cave and looked out over the landscape. "They have met the cybetronians, the dragons of the prphocey have started down a bright path. The new alpha will face many dangers and gain many enemies but as long as he remains on this path he will find great happiness." Said a male voice. "Indeed they all will do just fine but they will need help from their new allies to help bring peace to this cybertronian race that have been fighting for to long." Said a female voice as the two old dragons continued to look out across the land under the moon light, as a new age was beginning.
