Hello to all. I have one thing to say about this chapter. Confusing. That's right, confusing. I thought of this all while I was working. I hope you can enjoy it.

"I can't believe we're going to do that!" Hot shot exlaimed. "I mean, yes I want to save the kids, but we're going down to theit level."
"I know you don't like the idea Hot Shot, but it's all we can do," Optimus said. He and Hot Shot were talking to each other in privit while Red Alert, Alexis, and Sureshot stayed in the main control room. They were trying ti find Grindor and Highwire, but no sign of them.
"There as to be some way. We are handing over the mini-cons and everything we worked for!" Hot Shot said.
"If there is a way, then we can do it, but until then this is the only way." Optimus knew Hot Shot didn't like it and neither did he.
"Optimus, Hot Shot we found Highwire and Grindor!" Alexis said.
"Very good. Are they okay?" Optimus asked, folloowing Alexis to the control room.
"Yes. We also found something else. We got information on the kids." She walked over to the crontrols and looked up at Red Alert. "Go ahead and show them."
"I was able to find out who those kids were. They are Shely Rio, Brad Rio, and Mat Rio. The Rio triplets. The strange thing is, they don't live on earth. They're not even human."
"What?!" Hot Shot asked. "That can't be."
"It is," Alexis said. "There's a planet that is right behind Pluto. Out of reach of any spaceship. The planet is called Gilodo. The people there are nice and all they want is peace."
"If those kids are from that planet and want peace, then why team up with Megatron?" Hot Shot asked.
"I thought of that too," Red Alert said. "Then I read this." He hit a botton, and the Rio triplets pictures showed up. "Mat Rio, born before his brother and sister. He has the power to read peoples minds. Then we have Brad Rio, born five minutes after Mat. Has the power to levitate things. Last is Shely Rio, born ten minutes after Brad. She as more powers than the two. She can read peoples minds, levitate things, and blast things with her eyes."
"What are they doing on earth?" Optimus asked.
"There ship crashed somewhere in the desert," Alexis said. "Highwire and Grindor found it when the kids sent them to the desert."
"How did Megatron get the kids on his side?" Hot Shot asked.
"That is a question we have to ask tomorrow," Optimus said.

*Moonbase*
Rad woke to the sound of drums. No, wait, that was his head. He opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling. He sat up slowly and looked around for Carlos. He was nowhere to be found. "Hey Carlos?"
"Right here," a voice said from across the room.
Rad turned around and saw Carlos in the cell across from him. He was about to ask him something when he heard a laugh. He looked to his right and saw the Rio triplets.
"Look who finally woke up," Shely said with a smile.
"Tell us where you hid the mini-cons," Brad said.
"Why should we tell you?" Carlos asked.
"Megatron told us you are using the mini-cons as slaves," Mat said. "We can't let that happen. We come a peaceful planet."
"What do you mean, peaceful?" Rad asked. They were talking about the same planet.
"We are not human like you two," Mat said. "We come from Gilodo, a planet behind Pluto. We were sent on a mission and crash landed in the desert on this planet. After two days we found this planet is nothing but hate."
"We talked to Megatron and asked why he needed the mini-cons," Shely said, "and he said they were going to set them free, while the Autobots were going to keep them as slaves and make them work."
"What?! No way. That's not true!" Carlos explained.
Brad looked at Carlos and his eyes went white. Carlos looked at him and then found himself floating in air. "You will not trick us," Brad said and with only his eyes, he threw Carlos against the wall.
"Carlos!" Rad yelled in worry.
"Don't worry Rad," Mat said. "When the Autobots hand over the mini-cons tomorrow, we will let you two go. That is, if the Autobots even show up."
The Rio triplets left the cell room and closed the door. Rad watched them go and then looked over at Carlos, eho was getting up. They had to do something. If they didn't get out, then the Autobots will hand over the mini-cons and everything will be ruined.

Thank you Negaprion for telling me Rads, Carlos, and Alexis mini-cons names. Hopefully I'll have a title for this story.
