===========================================================================================
Hot Rod awoke to find himself seperated from the group. He then found Trailbreaker.
"Trailbreaker, are you all right?"
"I've been better. Let's transform and head for Olympia."
"Good Idea." The two then transformed and sped off.
"These roads are a murder on my suspension." said Hot Rod.
"These aren't roads. We're ina forest. We have to find the road. When we can make it back to base, you should have Ratchet install a four wheel drive in you. It helped a few other Autobots."
"How far to the road?"
"My scanners tell me about another mile or so. My scanners just picked up company. Get ready to tackle some Decepticons."
"Those are just some human vehicles. Nothing to worry about." The jet then shot him.
"Those are Decepticon seekers." The jets then transformed.
"There is no escape, Autobots." said Starscream. "Jet drones, attack." The drones then appeared and transformed. One of the drones shot Hot Rod's wheels and sent him flying. He transformed and shot the drone down.
"Hot Rod, let's take this fight to the road." said trailbreaker. "Get under my force sheild." The two made it to the road and were able to get better shots in on the jet drones. Unfortunately, the jet drones had better shots in the open as well.
"Trailbreaker, behind you." Trailbreaker turned and shot down two drones.
"ther's too many of them." said Trailbreaker. "Transform, and roll out." the two sped off as the drones followed them. All of a sudden, the drones started to fall out of the sky.
"No need to fear, Skyfire's here. I'm going to land. Get in." After Trailbreaker and Hot Rod got into Skyfire, he took off. "Hold on. I still have to deal with Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker." Skyfire turned around and shot at the Decepticon jets.
"Decepticons, retreat." yelled Starscream as the Decepticon jets headed off in failure.
"Optimus told me to llok for you. What happened?"
"We were attacked by those jet drones." said Trailbreaker. "We all got seperated. We were on our way to Olympia to get the transformation cog for Autobot City."
"Let's go get it then." said Skyfire.
"We have to find the others first." said Hot Rod.
"Let's go." said Skyfire.
===========================================================================================
Jazz and Ratchet made it to Olympia. Sunstreaker came to greet them.
"Hey guys, what's up?"
"We were attacked by the Decepticons." said Jazz. "Our group got seperated. We were hoping to meet up with them here, but obviously, we're the first ones here. We tried to contact everyone, but we haven't had any luck."
"Who was in the group?"
"Trailbreaker, Hot Rod, Rev, Kup, Hound, Ironhide, Blaster, and Wheeljack."
"We shoud probably contact optimus and report our status." said Ratchet.
"Good idea, Ratchet." said Jazz. "Sunstreaker, can you take us to your communications area?"
"Sure. Follow me." A while later, they came to room filled with Autobots.
"We're glad to see you guys." said Pipes. "Prime told me you guys were on your way. You guys should probably get in touch with him. He's pretty worried about you guys."
"That's what we came to do." said Jazz.
"I have the line ready." said Brawn.
"Jazz to Optimus Prime. Do you read me?"
"I hear you Jazz. What is the status of your team?"
"I don't know. Me and Ratchet are the only ones here."
"We need to find them. Hold on, I'm getting another call in." A few minutes later, Prime came up again. "That was Skyfire. He found Trailbreaker and Hot Rod. They're coming back to base. Bring the tranformation cog after you recharge. I also need you to bring some Autobot troops with you."
"Will do Prime. We'll be back soon." Jazz than turned to the Autobots in the room. "It's everyone's lucky day. When me and Ratchet go back to base, Optimus wants us to bring you guys with us. We have to defeat the Decepticons." Cheers rang out as the Autobots went to recharge for the trip to Autobot City.
===========================================================================================
The Decepticons jets passed by Hound, but didn't see him becuase of Hound's hologram.
"That should do it, Blaster."
"Thanks, Hound. I couldn't move at all."
"You're lucky to even be alive after landing on the tree branch. It went right through your chest cavity."
"I'm just lucky you could patch me up."
"Can you transform?" Hound asked as he transformed."
"I think so." It was slow, but Blaster did it.
"I wonder how the others are doing." said Hound.
"I don't know, but we're not to good. Keep up your hologram, and let's go back to headguarters."
"Blaster, my long range scanners are picking up something. It's Autobots." Hound then let his hologram fade. "I'll transform and let them know we're here." Hound transformed just as Jazz and the others arrived.
"Hound, are you all right?" asked Jazz.
"I've been better, but Blaster needs heavy repairs."
"Just put in me." said Ratchet who walked up and transformed into ambulance mode. Hound then loaded Blaster into Ratchet.
"What's the plan, Jazz?"
"We need bring this back to base and get ready for Decepticons."
"Heard from the rest of the team yet?"
"Skyfire found Trailbreaker and Hot Rod. They went back to base after dealing with a few jet drones. We still don't know where Kup, Ironhide, Wheeljack, and Rev are."
"All right, let's go." Hound and Jazz then transformed and all the Autobots then headed toward the base.
===========================================================================================
Kup and Wheeljack had been walking through the dense forest for some time now and were more lost than they had been.
"You know," said Kup, "This reminds me of the time on Ghonor 7. Me and a few of my soldiers were lost for three weeks before a party of Decepticons found us."
"Shut up!" said Wheeljack. "Do you always have to tell your old stories. They're starting to really annoy me, and I can't even hear myself compute."
"Sorry about that."
"When we get back to the base, I'll get you better acquainted with the Dinobots. They'll love your stories. Right now, I have to think, and you're not helping. Does your radio still work."
"Let's see. Kup to Jazz, do you read me." Only static came up. "Sorry, I got nothing."
"Let's go." They then transformed and rolled off. After a few more minutes, they finally found the road just in time to find jet drones.
"Autobots targeted. Destroy them." A storm of laser fire fell down on the two Autobots. Kup pulled out his rifle and shot down two of them. Wheeljack was taken down when a jet drone barreled right into him. Kup leaned Wheeljack on his back and transformed so Wheeljack would be in the bed of his pickup mode. Kup then sped off toward Autobot City. The jet drones continued to follow them. One of them shot Kup's tires and sent him flying. He transformed and shot down several drones. One of the drones came and grabbed Wheeljack while Kup was busy with the jet drones. Kup noticed the drone fly off, but it was too late. The other drones then flew off. Jazz and the other Autobots came up to him and transformed.
"How are doing, Kup?" asked Jazz.
"I'll be fine. The jet drones got Wheeljack."
"That's not good."
"I see you guys got the transformation circuitry for Autobot City."
"We're heading back to base to get ready for the Decepticons. We think Megatron is getting ready for something and we need to strike before we're caught off guard. Prime called all Autobots to base. We have no one working at Olympia right now except for the humans, but they can take care of themselves. We need to concentrate the Decepticons in one spot. So transform, and let's roll out. We'll have to get Wheeljack later, but I wish we could do it now. Unfortunately, Decepticon activity is too high." The Autobots then transformed and continued toward the base.
===========================================================================================
Rev and Ironhide found the road and were on their way to Autobot City.
"Ironhide, what's the action like here on earth?"
"Not usually as intense as this. The Decepticons are up to something big and I want to start busting transistors."
"What are the humans like?"
"Most of them are pretty nice to us, but a few still won't accept us after almost twenty years."
"I thought you guys were here for millions of years."
"We were inactive until 1984. The volcano we landed in was what reactivated us."
"My scanners are picking up something."
"Finally some action. Let's transform and hide in the forest to ambush the Decepticons."
They saw some jets land and transform. They didn't waste any time in their ambush. The Decepticon seekers were quickly forced to retreat. After that, Jazz and the Autobots found Ironhide and Rev.
"You two all right?" asked Jazz.
"A little dinged up, but ok." said Rev.
"We need to get the transformation cog back to base so we can activate the city's defense mode. We also need to find a way to save Wheeljack from the Decepticons."
"Where's the rest of the group?" asked Ironhide.
"Hot Rod and Trailbreaker were picked up by Skyfire and Blaster is in the back of Ratchet."
"Have you talked to Prime yet?"
"Yes. That's why we're heading back to Autobot City. We have to get ready for Decepticon attack. Prime thinks Megatron's up to something big." They then transformed and headed for Autobot City.
===========================================================================================
At the Space Bridge, Inferno, Seaspray, Huffer, and Tracks were ready for Decepticon activity.
"My scanners are picking them up." said Tracks.
"Autobots, attack." said Inferno.
When the Decepticons came into view, it was The Constructicons and Soundwave.
"Rumble, Ravage, Laserbeak, Buzzsaw, Frenzy, eject. Operation: destruction." The cassette robots ejected from Soundwave's chest and transformed.
"Constructicons, form Devastator." said Scrapper, leader of the Constructicons. The six robots combined to become one large robot.
"Prepare for extermination." said Devastator. Devastator kicked Inferno into Tracks. Rumble used his pile drivers to shake the ground and bring the Autobots to the ground. The cassettes attacked the Autobots, causing them to go off line. Devastator grabbed the Autobots and placed them in the Space Bridge.
Soundwave went to computer panel next to the space bridge and opened a communications channel.
"Soundwave to Cybertron. Come in."
"Shockwave here. Report."
"Operation going according to plan. When will the space bridge open?"
"In 20 astro seconds."
"Prepare to receive Autobot prisoners."
"Understood."
The Space Bridge then activated and the Autobots were transported to Cybertron.
"I have received the prisoners." said Shockwave. "Good work Soundwave. Everything is ready here. Tell Megatron he can precede with the next phase of the plan. The Autobots are doomed."
To Be Continued

So, what does everybody think? The plot is thickening. Please Review. Sorry about the long wait. I will begin Chapter 3 as soon as possible. The next chapter will focus on the Decepticons and what their plan actually is. Stay tuned for Losing the Fight, Part III.
