Chapter 4: Back home and bored.

The real Ultra Magnus calls them when they're in the atmosphere, and says "General Starstriker sir, may I request sir that you land Omnicrotus on some flat land. I'll head there in a couple hours with a welcoming crew sir. Starstriker says "No need for calling me sir anymore Ultra Magnus. The war is over." A few hours later, they land with Ultra Magnus, Prowl and Warpath at their doorstep. They have a conversation, Starstriker asks "Will ranks within the Autobot Military be maintained or will there be fair democratic elections?" and Ultra Magnus says "For the time being, until a democratic government can be arranged and new military officers, the Autobot Military will stand in as the government, as we are the victor of the war." and Starstriker nods.

A few days later each of them are somewhere in the now reborn Cybertron. Perceptor is working in the new Ministry of Science. Kup, Ironhide and Whirl are having a drink at a branch of the GCB (Grand Cybertronian Bar). Hound, Highdrate, Crocko and Powerhigh are working on reconstruction of buildings. Jazz is working with Autotune on finding bots who are having trouble or need help around Cybertron. Starstriker is in Iacon with Ultra Magnus arranging new refugees on where to land. They are all bored. They contact each other and meet up in a branch of the GCB. Jazz says "I ain't got nothing to do no more and I for one would like to do something like a space adventure." and everyone says "I agree" and they get confused on why they all want to do a space adventure. Whirl says "Well, looks like spending millions of years in space in a civil war makes you wanna go back to it." and everyone agrees again. Starstriker says "I'll talk to Ultra Magnus. Maybe we can become some sort of "Autobot finders crew" and let's see if he agrees to give us a ship.". A few minutes later, they all leave the bar and Starstriker goes to Iacon to talk to Ultra Magnus. He talks to Ultra Magnus, pitches the idea and Ultra Magnus gladly agrees and says "I assign you this Class-8 Starship with Class-9 weapon defenses and Omnispace engines. What would you like to call it." and Starstriker responds, "I'd like to officially name it, the AF Genesis." and Starstriker leaves. Starstriker messages the crew, and asks them to find volunteers.
