6 – Take on me, Cyclonus!

BOOM!

"TC!!!"

"SORRY!"

As they took off, TC let off his infamous sonic boom as he soared into the sky, completely deafening poor Starscream (Skywarp teleported safely out of harms way) and Alexis.

"Grr, idiot brother – AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" Starscream's flight path suddenly became erratic as Skywarp landed on him in robot mode.

"GIDDY UP PLANE BOY!" He yelled and Starscream did a 360 to knock him off.

Alexis laughed and laughed. Oh, she couldn't get enough of these guys!

Once they had all settled down a bit, they resumed their path to find Cyclonus.

"So, what can you do in the air, Alexis?" Starscream asked.

" I can generate a smokescreen in the sky," She said shyly, not wanting to demonstrate because it might cause a panic.

Just as the words came out of her vocalizer, laser bolts streaked past Alexis's left wing, nearly grazing the tip. She screamed in fright and did a sharp 180 turn in midair, coming to face her attacker.

"No…" she whispered softly. Not more than 200 meters away from her was Cyclonus, in his alt mode, laughing insanely.

"So the little femmebot's come back for more!" he giggled and opened fire once again. Purple laser shots dotted the sky as the 4 jets took evasive action.

"A smokescreen would be good right about now!" Starscream yelled as he flipped upside down to avoid a purple bolt of energy. Alexis said nothing, but spiraled upward, intent on blocking out Cyclonus's vision with a well-aimed cloud of smoke.

When she was at least a hundred meters above the crazed helicopter, she readied the nozzles in the nose of her jet form, preparing to shoot a cloud of pitch black smoke right at him. Below her, Cyclonus turned around in circles, shooting wildly without aiming at any of them in particular. However, this was one of the times when that strategy worked better than a few well-placed shots. The three seeker brothers couldn't get close enough to him.

"AHHHH!" Alexis screamed in pain as a stray laser bolt burned a small, neat hole in her right wing. Cyclonus looked up and giggled, opening up all of his reserve firepower on the already-injured femme.

Already weakened from her earlier injuries, and reeling from the pain in her wing, Alexis struggled to regain her bearings as the barrage of fire streaked by her. With a burst of strength, she pointed her jet nose straight at Cyclonus and blasted a spray of smoke straight at him. Then, her engines spluttered and she fell out of the sky, instinctively transforming back to robot mode as she spiraled downward.

"ALEXIS!" Starscream yelled as he pushed his engines to the max to reach her before she could hit the ground. Demanding every last ounce of speed from his engines, he flew towards the falling femme at a speed that would have made TC proud.

Closer and closer…then…

"I got her!" Starscream yelled in the general direction of his brothers, who were trying to distract Cyclonus from the injured femme.

Skywarp decided to match Cyclonus in the crazy department. Formulating a plan, the youngest seeker swerved away from the laser fire that had just erupted beside him. He flew as close as he could to Cyclonus and teleported; landing right on the helicopter's blades!

"HELLO!" He shouted and poured laser into the crazy 'con. Cyclonus shrieked in panic and TC decided to step into action. He zoomed right at the chopper (who was trying to buck Skywarp off) and blasted his front.

Cyclonus screamed and howled. Smoke billowed out of the many holes now punctured in his superstructure. He tumbled uncontrollably towards the ground and Skywarp kicked off him, sending him to his destination even faster.

When a satisfying CRASH was heard down below, TC and Starscream burst out in laughter. Seeing Skywarp's 'fighting' was the funniest thing to have happened all day. Skywarp looked at his brothers in confusion, then puffed himself up proudly; knowing he had done a good job.

Alexis stirred in Starscream's arms. He had temporarily forgotten about the poor femme for a minute but his worry now came back full scale. He saw her optics slowly flicker and come online again as the other two seekers came over.

Alexis was a bit blurry with what had happened, but as her optics came online she saw that someone had caught her. She recognized him as Starscream once her vision cleared.

"Y – you saved me!" She stammered. Starscream nodded.

She smiled and reached up, giving Starscream a kiss on the cheek and a hug, saying thank you in his right audio receptor. Starscream's face went as red as his paint job.

"Hehe! Screamer she likes you!" TC teased as Starscream became accustomed to having a femme hugging him.

"Screamer has a femmefriend! Screamer has a femmefriend! Screamer has a femmefriend!" Skywarp chanted.

Starscream chose not to reply and flew off to the place Alexis had said was her house.
