At landing pad 18 :
Goldbug glanced at his chronometer and sighed. They had to leave for their patrol in 1 earth hour. The two other Autobots, who had been assigned patrol duty, hadn't shown yet. He was about to contact Seraphim, when Optimus Prime entered and approached him. Goldbug swallowed. To him, Optimus Prime was more than just the leader of the Autobots, he was also a father to all of them. He listened carefully to everyone who talked with him, and offered his own honest opinion.
Optimus looked around the pad, then at Goldbug, hands on his hips.
"Seems like your short a crew Goldbug."
"They're on their way Optimus. They shouldn't....."
Just then, Wreak-Gar sped into the room, transforming into robot form and running for the shuttle. As he ran, Goldbug and Optimus could see and hear the laughter and smile on his face. Seraphim flew into the room, aiming straight for Wreak-Gar, and transforming in mid air, flew towards the Junkion, intending to tackle him. Wreak-Gar dodged to the left at the last instant, and watched Seraphim sail past him, and collide with Optimus. Both of them slammed into the ground and slid across the floor, coming to a stop 30 feet away.
"Attention all passengers. The incoming flight has been delayed. Next up, the award winning show, 'Where's my landing strip?', starring Seraphim and Optimus Prime."
Seraphim groaned and looked up into the face of Optimus Prime.
"Umm, no offense sir, but, umm, could you please remove your hand from my upper chassis?"
Optimus looked and then jumped to his feet, obviously embarrassed.
"Uhh, sorry Seraphim. I, errr...."
Seraphim stood and faced her leader.
"That's ok, I should've been watching where I was flying."
Sideswipe, Hound and Kup had observed the whole scene. The two younger Autobots groaned, whilst Kup chuckled.
"Come on lads, pay up! I won, fair and square."
Sideswipe groaned as he handed a 300 cred chip to Kup.
"Come on Kup, how in the name of Primus, did you know THAT was going to happen?"
Hound nodded as he also handed a 300 cred chip to Kup.
Kup grinned as he put the creds away.
"Never make a bet with an old warrior. I'm always right."
"What about Quintesson?" A voice said from behind the three.
They turned, and faced Rodimus Prime.
"Ahh, Quintesson, that wasn't a mistake lad, that was..."
"A mistake."
"Yeah, a mis....," Kup frowned "I'm never gonna live that down am I?"
Rodimus grinned as he slapped Kup on the shoulder.
"Not while I'm still around." He faced Hound and Sideswipe "Don't the two of you have weapon's training now?"
Hound and Sideswipe nodded.
"Uhh, yeah, we do. Later Kup." Sideswipe transformed and took off.
"Yeah, you know how Ultra Magnus can get." Hound added, before transforming and following Sideswipe.
Rodimus looked at Kup.
"What am I going to do with you, old man?"
Kup handed him one of the cred chips he got from Hound and Sideswipe.
"Let an old man, treat you to a drink."
Rodimus grinned.
"Bribery Kup? I didn't think you had that in you."
"Not bribery lad, say a, token of my esteem."
Meanwhile, Optimus and Seraphim had made their way back to the shuttle, where Wreak-Gar was laughing like mad, even Goldbug had to turn away, his form shaking from the laughter he was trying to hide.
Seraphim glared at Wreak-Gar.
"You just wait. I'll get my payback."
"No problemo. Operator standing by."
Optimus looked at Goldbug.
"Goldbug...."
"Hmm? Oh sorry sir." Goldbug was still shaking from laughing.
Before anything else could be said, the two other Autobots entered and approached the shuttle.
"Dogfight and Rollbar reporting as ordered." Dogfight said as he snapped off a salute.
Rollbar looked at Goldbug and grinned.
"Well, looks like two of the Throttlebots are back in action again, eh kid?"
Goldbug nodded.
"Looks that way. Heard from Wide Load and the others?"
Rollbar shook his head.
"Nah, last I heard, Wide Load, Chase, Freeway and Searchlight were on Cybertron." Rollbar looked at Optimus "My guys giving you any grief up there yet?"
Optimus smiled behind his mask.
"Your comrades are doing their jobs, admirably I might add. You must be proud of them."
"I am, I am." Rollbar looked at the shuttle "Well, shall we get this crate moving? We've got a job to do."
Seraphim nodded in agreement.
"Let's. We have to be out by Pluto in an hour. Landmine and Sky Lynx will be joining us there."
Rollbar smiled.
"Landmine, eh? Can't wait."
Rollbar walked up the ramp, Wreak-Gar and Dogfight behind him. Seraphim sighed and looked at Optimus.
"Now THIS should be fun." She saluted Optimus, then walked up the ramp.
Goldbug and Optimus shared a look. Optimus had told Goldbug why he was sending Seraphim out there, and Goldbug was worried. Optimus recognised the look instantly.
"Don't worry Goldbug. Everything will be fine."
"I hope so Optimus. For her sake." Goldbug then walked up the ramp.
Optimus turned and walked towards Rodimus and Kup. They watched the shuttle take off. Kup sighed.
"Sending them out there... Will they be safe?"
Rodimus stretched.
"Don't worry Kup. They'll be fine. Goldbug's with them, and I've spoken with Wreak-Gar. If anything goes wrong, they know what to do."
Optimus added.
"And with Sky Lynx and Landmine joining them, there will be enough onboard to protect her."
"Do you really think Raiden will go to so much trouble to get her back?" Kup asked.
"Ever since Xaaron sent us that message saying a time bridge had been activated, I have reason to be worried." Optimus sighed "Someone's gone back in time, for some purpose, and that's cause enough for alarm."
The three Autobots stood there, worried thoughts running through their minds.

Death's Head - I've got plans to bring in other Autobots and Decepticons. May add the Quintessons, not sure yet. I'll see how these chapters are received before deciding anything concrete. I would appreciate it, if anyone can remember names, and vehicle forms of Generation 1 Autobots and Decepticons, in particular the names of the Targetmasters, Headmasters, Powermasters and Pretenders. Any info as to the cassettes within Soundwave would be greatly appreciated. If you know of any, please email me their details, and I'll see where I can add them, as I want to add a LOT of classics into this story. Spoiler for the next few chapters : Raiden's time travel, Death's Head arrives on Earth, Galvatron's force leave Charr and prepare to attack and Omega Supreme, as well as the Technobots will appear. R&R please.
