Chapter 10! YIPPEE!

Teschio: (chewing on her souvenier Cyclonus arm)

You still have that thing?

Circuit: Don't ask please? Just don't ask.

Riigghhtt...

Hunter: (playing Nintendo DS Spiderman game) Victory shall be mine...

Zephyr, your right. He is a hopless case.

Zephyr: I've been telling you that since the beginning.

Storm: BUWAHAHA! (zooms over head, powerlinked with Desperado)

Desperado: HELP ME!

QuickSilver: (stabbing Thrust plushie) THWACK! (plushie head seen rolling on floor)

Griffin: (shuffles away from QuickSilver)

Ooookay. Like I was starting to say-

Kinonaru: GAH! ( flies by overhead followed closely by Storm)

Storm: BUWAHAHAHA!

(shakes head back and forth and sighs) I got it! (magically produces assorted Autobot plushies) Teschio... (whistles to her as if she was a dog) Lookie what I got... (waves Sideswipe plushie)

Teschio: (rushes forward promptly knocking LG over, grabs Sideswipe plushie and runs)

x.x... ouch... (straightens up) That was easy. Now whose next... (Looks to the sky seeing Storm is still after Kinonaru) HEY STORM! (waves around Overcast plushie in air)

Storm: O.O MINE! (launches grappling hook from bumper, grabs Overcast plushie and flies away with Desperado still screaming like a girl)

Uhhh... wow? (picks up Jetfire plushie) Kinonaru!

Kinonaru: (looks to where LG is waving around Jetfire plushie, dives out of air with talons full forward, grabs plushie delicately in talons and flies off to a strategically placed cave)

Three down... (looks to where QuickSilver is tearing off a Sideways plushie arms and legs and to where Jetstream is playing a transformer style X-Box) Riiigghhtt... Hey Jetstream! Wanna plushie?

Jetstream: What type of plush- (stops to see LG holding a RedAlert plushie) ...

(looks to plushie than to Jetstream with an evil smile) Oh... I see... (tosses Jetstream RedAlert plushie)

Jetstream: (catches plushie, transforms and flies off)

Heheheh... Now just QuickSilver... (looks at plushies that are left) There's Scavenger, HotShot, Hoist, Blurr, and Optimus... And there's no way she's getting this.( grabs Blurr plushie and hides it lord knows where) That leaves Scavey, HotShot, Hoist, and Op... Which one would she want? GAH! I haven't the slightest clue! (walks off leaving plushies)

QuickSilver: (looks around before quickly walking up and grabbing Optimus plushie and casually walking away)

(In some room somewhere, looking at survaillance camera showing QuickSilver grab Optimus plushie)

Hehehe... Thought so. Now what am I gonna do with the other plushies? Oh whatever! I'll leave 'em there and who ever wants them can have 'em.

Zephyr: Are you going to start the fic or just continue marveling over your Blurr plushie?

Hush! Leave the plushie out of this! But, yes as to what happened in the last chapter...

Hunter: I wanna tell it! (in whiny tone)

Fine just hurry up. (turns around and marvels at Blurr plushie)

Hunter: LG and Teschio went off the deep end!

Zephyr: That's putting it lightly...

Hunter: After QuickSilver was cornered by Rotor-butt, LoneGenesis and Teschio freaked out and literally tried to eat him!

Zephyr: Not a pretty sight I assure you...

Hunter: Well they were tied up and bought back to base where they continued to spaz and act all animalish. While they continued to freak out RedAlert showed (cough cough) Jetstream some tricks of the trade when it comes to being a medic by repairing QuickSilver while Optimus and the others discussed the situation with LoneGenesis and Teschio. While everybody else was doing their own thing Zephyr, Circuit, and I tried to snap those two out of it. A bit suicidal but we lived to tell that tale!

Hardy har har... Well I think your done for now at least on the synopsis.

Hunter: Hey I have more to tell!

Zephyr: ( hits Hunter outside of head) Let her begin the fic already!

Hunter: (anime style water fall tears run down mask covered face) I just wanna-

Zephyr and LG: (death stare)

Hunter: o.O (shuts up)

To warn people now... This chapter will be one which I advise you to where a hard hat, elbow pads, and knee pads. Warning, Warning!. Bunkers are to your emidate left.

Zephyr: That doesn't sound healthy.

It's not, so beware... wooohhhoooo... Now to the fic!

Chapter 10: Storm's New Little Friend

"That's all I can tell you Optimus." explained LoneGenesis as she and Teschio stood before Optimus and the others in the control room, well almost everyone. RedAlert and Jetstream were repairing QuickSilver while Storm was still somewhere in the base searching for Desperado. "The very last thing I remember was standing in between QuickSilver and Cyclonus and I just felt an anger I never felt before rise inside of me, then the next thing I knew was Zephyr and Hunter standing in front of me."

Stepping forward Teschio explained further, "It was pretty much the same experience with me too, Optimus. I remember staring at him, being absolutely pissed at the fact he attacked Silver and BAM! The next moment Circuit was next to me and Genesis, Zephyr, and Hunter were in the doorway."

Pondering on what was just told to him Optimus suggested, "It could be your alternate modes. Maybe your were experiencing what the animal would have experienced in a situation like that."

"I've never went through an experience like that any other time I was in my fox form."

"Same when I'm in tiger mode."

Sideswipe spoke aloud, "Maybe it's something that Thrust and Sideways did you when you were both changed."

"No possible way." announced Scavenger. "RedAlert looked them over and checked for any Decepticon programing."

"Then what caused them to go berserk?" questioned Blurr.

"Is there any other way the Decepticons could've hacked into their programing and hidden something in there?" wondered Overcast.

Shaking his head back and forth. Jetfire corrected, "No way 'Cast. Like Scav said, RedAlert checked them out and he reported nothin resembling Decepticon programing was in there."

"Is there something bigger we're missing?"

"I don't know Hoist." answered Optimus, looking at Teschio and LoneGenesis. "We'll just have to keep an optic on you two."

"I understand Optimus, but what if it's not just us. I mean what if it could happen to the others?" wondered Genesis. "QuickSilver, Jetstream, and Storm. Oh dear lord if Storm went over board like the way you described us doing, we'd be so incredibly screwed it's not funny."

"Not in the good way she means." added Teschio with a sly smile, surpressing the urge to laugh. (dirty joke! dirty joke!)

Glaring at the tiger, LoneGenesis hissed, "Teschio!"

"I don't get it." questioned Jetfire.

Looking at the Autobots, they all had clueless looks on their faces. "LoneGenesis..." came Prime. "What does she mean?" He continued to look at LoneGenesis who twitched slightly.

"It's just a human joke Optimus." she answered with a nervous laugh, glaring at Teschio who looked away trying not to burst out laughing.

"What does it mean?" asked Hotshot curiously.

It was at that time Teschio finally lost it and fell to the floor full out laughing. "AHAHAHAHHAAHA!"

And man how did LoneGenesis feel so embarassed, if it wasn't for the face mask she probably would've been red in the face.

"It's official." said Sideswipe. "She's nuts."

"Naw that's Storm."

"No doubt there 'Cast." Jetfire agreeed.

"I still don't get it."

"Hotshot just drop it please." LoneGenesis just held her head and shuck it back and forth, truly at a loss of what to say to Teschio.

"Ooookay." Scavenger said somewhat lost as well.

"AHAHAAHHA! OH MY SWEET LORD!"

Walking up to Teschio, LoneGenesis bent down grabbed her legs and then proceeded to exit the room with the hysterical tiger in tow. "You and me need to have a long talk."

The tiger was to busy laughing to even take notice, clenching her midsection she continued to laugh as tears of energon started to flow down her face.

"I can't take you anywhere can I?"

"AHAHHAHAHAHA!"

"Apparently not."

Meanwhile on the other side of the base...

"Desperado come down!"

"NO! MAKE ME!" he argued back like a little kid.

Apparently one to many times with Storm drove Desperado into temporary insanity. So here was Desperado stuck to the ceiling in the minicon quaters in his dragon mode refusing to come down while every other minicon comtemplated what to do.

Gliding up to where Desperado was Tomahawk said, "She's on the other side of the base you can relax for a few."

"Believe me she can travel faster than light when provoked and I tell you she'll appear outta nowehere like she always does to get me."

"For crying out loud Desperado!" yelled up Circuit. "Try being partners with Teschio and see how you do."

Shivering at the thought Desperado continued to stay where he was. " I want to see you pry my claws from here."

"What happens if the alarm goes off?"

"Then go without me, Zephyr."

"Des, come on!"

"NO WAY!"

"What if she finds another partner?"

With that Desperado had to look down at Griffin. "What do you mean?"

Smiling up at him Griffin repeated, "Just like I said, what if she found another partner?"

"Besides him being temporarily free from torment?" wondered Hunter aloud as he once again recieved a hit outside the head from Zephyr.

"Besides that." corrected Griffin.

"I'll be able to roam the base with some dignity again?"

"To some extent anyway." called up Circuit with a smile.

"Better some than none." wondered Des as he loosened his hold on the ceiling a bit.

"If ya come down we'll have LoneGenesis and Jetstream restrain her a tad for ya." compromised Hunter.

There was a gathered 'gasp'.

"Hunt- Hunter had a good idea?" breathed Zephyr.

"Oh my gosh..." went Tomahawk beak agape.

"IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!" yelled Circuit as he ran out of the room with his arms in the air adding to the effect.

Death glaring everyone, Hunter replied, " Ha ha, I forgot to laugh."

"Somebody write that down." came Desperado as he finally released the ceiling, transformed, and glided down to the floor as Circuit ran by once again shrieking.

"So oh smart one..." started Desperado. "Talk to your partner please about keeping Storm off me for a bit."

"We'll see what we can do. Isnt't that right Hunter?" answered Zephyr as he jabbed Hunter in the side with his elbow.

"Fine, fine."

Desperado would've been down on his knees praying if it wasn't for the fact that the minicon alarm just happened to go off at the precise moment. From the other side of the base the roar of Storm's engine came.

"You may wanna run for your life to Genesis or Streamer now." suggested Nekogal as she sat in beast mode next to Tomahawk.

"Desperado!" came Storm's sing-song voive of insanity.

"GAH!" once again transforming to his dragon mode Desperado flew out of the room followed closely by the speeding car form of Storm, who was cackling like some evil possessed car on drugs or drunk out of her mind, either one.

On Location-

"So where's the signal coming from?" questioned Kinonaru as she surveyed the surrounding area as she, LoneGenesis, Storm, Teschio and the Autobots minus RedAlert, Jetstream, and QuickSilver looked around. "Cause if it's in there count me out in this mission." she continued by pointing to the shore and the vast ocean beyond it.

"Oohhh Bermuda!" came Storm's awed voice.

"So where we going Optimus?"

"For a swim, LoneGenesis." he answered pointing to the brilliant blue water of the ocean.

"Uhhh..." started Teschio looking at the water. "I'll sit this one out."

"Why?" asked Scavenger eyeing her suspiciously.

"Cats and water don't mix." stated LoneGenesis with a smile. "Although tigers are the only big cats that can tolerate getting wet."

"It's not that!" she protested, "I can't swim that's all."

"Ahhh... that explains alot."

"Well than Scavenger and Sideswipe you two stay here with Teschio and Kinonaru." commanded Optimus. "If we need help I'll contact you."

"Yes sir!" replied the two Autobots in unison.

Looking back to the remainder of the group Optimus said, "We'll split up. Overcast and Jetfire search the skies for any sign of the Decepticons, Hoist you go with Storm... and please keep her under some control, Blurr you go with LoneGenesis," he looked over at her and continued, "It's only to make sure you don't loose it again."

"Understood."

"HotShot and I will go together, right. Move out!"

Running to the shore LoneGenesis jumped into the air ahead of the others and dived in head first.

"Somebody's enthusiastic about this mission." Hoist said chuckling a little.

"Naw... It's not the mission! It's the fact that we're in Bermuda that she did that! And I dun blame her! YEEHAW!" called Storm as she raced towards the water, barely ten feet from the waters edge she transformed, jumping into the air she yelled, "CANNONBALL!" as she curled up and promptly hit the water sending it high into the air and crashing to the shore. A couple seconds later their heads breached the surface and were both laughing.

"Oh man! That was great!" LoneGenesis watched as Storm back-stroked by fully relaxed.

Wading in themselves, the Autobots exchanged looks before diving under the waves in search of the minicon. Well Hoist and HotShot had to grab Storm by the legs and drag her under she was having that much of a good time.

Somewhere near Mars-

A dark shadow flies past the burning red planet that is Mars. It's pure black body seems to suck in the few sources of light. Then suddenly without notice blue flames erupt from the wings as gastly green eyes look ahead to the blue and green planet ahead of it. "Soon..." came a low and sinister sounding male voice. "Soon 'Burning Guardian'... You'll meet your end like everyone else in your line... Soon..." With a mighty flap of it's wings blue embers fly off as the strange being continued on his flight path. (first sign something bad is going to happen)

Unknown Cavern, The Moon-

"I understand..." came Sideways voice answering an unheard command. "They'll be perfect replicas... No memories, no nothing... The perfect fighting units for you 'Mighty One'." A faint light came from inside the cave, there stood Sideways looming over five prone transformer shells. Each shell's optics or optic visor were glowing faintly. Their bodies slowly changing, gaining new armor and features. The bodies similar in way to that of another group of new transformers... "No, not long now..." ( yet another sign that something bad is going to happen)

The Autobots-

"I'm SO glad that Zephyr and Hunter decided to come." LoneGenesis and Blurr were slowly making their way through the reefs that littered the ocean floor. In order to make moving around easier LoneGenesis powerlinked with Zephyr while Blurr was powerlinked with Incinerator. "This makes things so much easier, I really wasn't in the mood to be flubbing around aimlessly."

Blurr looked at her, "'Flubbing'?"

"Don't ask." answered Hunter instead, perched on Genesis' shoulder.

"Enjoying yourself are we?" asked Blurr to Hunter, looking at him.

"I only hope not to much or I'll be forced to flick him off my shoulder." growled Genesis with an evil glint in her optics staring at Hunter who smiled innocently.

"Heh... Well uhh..."

"Don't start. Your lucky I've allowed you to stay on that long."

All he did was smile at her. "It's all because you love me."

Staring at Hunter, LoneGenesis raised her right hand and flicked him off her shoulder. "There's my love to ya."

"It was a joke! Come on LG can't ya take a joke!" he called as he started to doggie paddle to catch up.

"I believe Hunter," started Blurr. "That that was already answered for you."

"I'll remember this LG." Hunter pouted as he grabbed hold of her tail as they continued through the reefs.

The Beach-

"What is she doing?"

"I have no idea Sideswipe, why don't go over and find out?"

"I'll go." volunteered Kinonaru as she strided over to where Teschio was digging holes under the cover of trees that lined the beach they were on. "Uhhh... Teschio... what are you doing?"

"Digging holes."

"I see that. But why?"

"To give us some cover."

"Cover from what? The sun?"

"No way." laughed Teschio as she continued to dig in her tiger mode. "Cover just in case the Deceps decide to fly over. That'll give us the chance to blow 'em out of the sky!" She kicked more sand up over the sides of the hole.

Kinonaru just stood there awed at the tiger, her mouth wide open.

"I did the same thing when she explained it to me." announced Circuit standing next to Naru with a smile in his face as Teschio continued on.

Underwater-

"Who lives in a pineapple under the sea! SpongeBob Squarepants!" sang Storm. "Absorbant and yellow and porus is he! SpongeBob Squarepants! Some nautical nonsense is something you wish! SpongeBob Squarepants! So jump onto deck and flub like a fish! SpongeBob Squarepants!"

"Storm..."

"SpongeBob Squarepants!"

"Storm!" it as starting to become louder.

"SpongeBob Squarepants!"

"Storm!" Now he was becoming annoyed.

"SpongeBob Squarepants!"

"STORM!"

"Yyyeeesss..."

"Would you please stop with the singing." begged Hoist.

"Awww... Do I haveta?"

"Yes. Do you want to give our positions away to the Decepticons?"

"Errr... No." Storm than said. "Had one to many bad experiences with those dudes."

Nodding in agreement Hoist added, "I know the feeling, belieeevvveee me. I know the feeling. Hey Desperado!" He then called to the minicon. "How ya holding up?"

"How would you feel if you were buckled to the seat of your partner and there was no way out?" he answered from Storm's passenger seat glaring daggers at her dashboard as she giggled insanely.

"Ehhh... You win in that one." Hoist laughed a little.

"I'll never live this down." he sighed defeated as Storm once again laughed.

The reefs-

Stopping short, LoneGenesis' swivled her ears back and forth until they faced forward. Then in an instant they were flat against her helmit.

Noticing this Blurr turned around to come and look at her. "What's wrong?" he asked.

"I don't know..." she trailed off. "I hear something but I can't put my finger on it and it seems to be getting louder... Can you hear anything by any chance?"

Focusing on his surroundings he listened to the waters current, the faint sound of dolphins in the distance, and... a weird but familiar whistling sound. That's when it hit him. "GET DOWN!" he cried as he jumped at LoneGenesis and pulled her down to the sandy bottom as a torpedo zoomed by and blew up part of the reef sending large pieces of coral falling onto the two and assorted fish fleeing in all directions.

"Tidalwave destroy Autobots" came his montone voice, then fired more torpedoes

"Slag... This is not good!" mumbled Blurr as he shielded the fox from harm. 'We have to find a way out of this alive!' he thought quickly.

Lifting her head up to see what was going on LoneGenesis saw the torpedo coming before Blurr could even register it's approach. Raising up her gattling gun she took aim at the missle and with one shot, hit it head on as it exploded in a cloud of bubbles just above their heads. The shockwaves sent pieces of the already crumbling coral reefs falling on top them, burying them.

As the bubbles and debris disappeared and seeing no movement Tidalwave proclaimed, "Targets destroyed." Transforming to his carrier mode Tidalwave powered his thrusters and in a flurry of bubbles disappeared.

A few short seconds later the coral pieces and rocks started to shift. As one large chunk of coral is finally pushed away the blue and white form of Blurr appears. Shaking the few rocks off himself he turned his attention to the black, red, and gold form of LoneGenesis beside him. "You okay?"

"Pretty good considering what we just went through if that's what you mean." she answered knocking some small rocks out of her ears. With one final knock a small fish swam out. "I'm not even going to ask how that got in there." She said again coming to a standing position. Giving herself one final shake off she turned to Blurr, "You alright?" She took noted of the deep dents in his back armor.

"I'll live... I'll contact Optimus and inform him about our current situation." he said as reached over to open his com-link to discover that it was crushed in the attack. "Frag... My comms out. What about yours?"

Tapping a small spot on the side of her helmit, she shook her head, "Nothing... but-" stopping short Genesis' ears perked up again. "We don't need it..." Pointing in the general southeastern direction she continued, "Cause the fighting is happening over there."

Following her gaze he asked, "You positive on that."

Chuckling softly, "I haven't been wrong yet!"

"True." his smile could be heard in his voice. Pulling out his rifle, Blurr asked in a gentleman like manner, "Shall we?"

Brandishing her own gun LoneGenesis answered with an amused glint in her optics, "With pleasure." With that she powered up Zephyr's thrusters and spread his wings while Blurr transformed.

Standing not so far away Hunter stood next to Incinerator, both were gaping slightly.

"Did you-" he stuttered "Did you just see what I saw?"

Nodding blankly in agreement Incinerator answered, "Oh yeah... Wonder where Blurr is gonna have the bachelor party."

LoneGenesis' ears twitched a bit at that. She gave a low rumbling growl which shut the two minicons up.

Looking at LoneGenesis oddly, Blurr asked, "What?"

"Oh nothing..." she shot the two minicons a glare.

A little unsure Blurr finally commanded, "Alright... Incinerator! Powerlink!" As the minicon did so.

"I guess I haveta bring Hunter with me?"

"That would be nice, thanks Genesis." Hunter pouted, glaring at LoneGenesis as he climbed up onto her shoudler.

Laughing, "It's apparent you can't take a joke, Hunter."

"Yeah. yeah..." he grumbled further as the group headed to the fray.

Back at Autobot HQ-

"How do you feel, QuickSilver?" asked Jetstream to the hawk who was still recovering from her injuries.

"Phsyically? A little better..."

Smiling at her, "That's good considering what you went through."

Looking up at the dark blue form of Jestream, "So uhh... "

'I'm fine if that's what you were gonna ask." Jetstream said as RedAlert walked into the Medbay.

"Ah good your awake. I hope your feeling better."

Silver only nodded her head a little, after her meeting with the Decepticons she wasn't about to trust any of these giant robots, even considering she was now one of them.

"That's good. Optimus just called in, they haven't been able to get in touch with LoneGenesis and Blurr." his face turned serious. "Their currently taking on the Decepticons as we speak and the minicon has yet to be found."

"LoneGenesis? Oh you mean the other girl with the fox form?" asked Jetstream to RedAlert.

Smiling at her, "That's her."

Streamer felt her face flush a little. "Ahh." 'Oh my gosh!' she panicked in her mind again. 'Why is it that he's so cute when he does that! GAH! I'm doing it again!' She smiled a little at him in return.

QuickSilver was busy looking back and forth from Jetstream ot RedAlert, wondering what the heck was going on. 'Could she have something for him?' she thought.

Shaking it off, Jetstream announced, "You better relax Silver, your still not in all that good shape to be up and around."

"I agree. Lay back, deactivate your optics, and try to relax." Looking to Jetstream, "You also need to have some time off. Considering what you girls went through..." he trailed off obviously meaning their time with the Decepticons. "You both need to have some to time to get yourselves familar to your new surroundings and bodies. QuickSilver you're going to have ot stay here at least another day or so. Jetstream follow me, I'll show you to where you'll be staying." He said further leading her out of the Medbay. Leaving QuickSilver by herself, she laid back on the berth and proceeded to drift into an uneasy sleep.

Back in hallway RedAlert coninued to lead Jetstream to her room. The silence was starting to get to him, that's when he started ot talk. "You did a very impressive job repairing QuickSilver. You have the skills of a medic whose been treating patients for years."

She gave him a nervous smile before answering, "Yeah about that... I was fully into my studies back when I was in school. Kinda funny if you look at it." she paused, "Since I was little I always wanted to be a doctor. I mean how many little kids want to be doctors one day and the next day something else. Me? I stuck to what I wanted to be." She shrugged.

He smiled at her again, "That's what seperates some people from others. The one's who stick to what they love do well... And you seem to be doing just that."

"Thanks."

Back at the beach-

Peeking up from one of holes that littered the shore underneathe the trees green optics stare out at the sky as a purple, grey, and green jet flew over.

"Get ready." whispered the owner of the green optics in a hushed female tune as three gun barrels appeared and took aim at the jet.

"You sure this will work?"

"Heh... He won't know what hit him!" the female voice said again with a faint laugh. "Here he comes again... Get ready... and...FIRE!"

Three shots flew through the sky from the ground and collided with the jet, who shrieked and cursed as it tranformered into the Decepticon Thrust and plummeted into the ocean.

"WAHAHA!" Teschio jumped out of her hole and came to stand on the beach looking victorious. She had mud and folliage smeared all over herself, she apparently was trying to go for the army camoflauge look. "Sweet! It worked! I knew it would!" she cheered further as Kinonaru, Scavenger, and Sideswipe stepped out of their own holes.

"I can't believe something Teschio concocked actually worked!" wondered Scavenger aloud.

"No kidding... Oh man. Who knew Teschio was such a tactical genius."

"Shut your mouth Sideswipe!" hissed Naru. "We don't want to give her any ideas!"

"Oh.. Right. Gotcha."

They all looked up again at Teschio who was standing on the beach still laughing victoriously.

Back in the water-

"HOIST! TO YOUR LEFT!"

Looking left Hoist managed to dodge a laser shot just narrowly. Looking to where Storm, who was powerlinked with Desperado, was shooting the crap of Cyclonus he shouted over thanking her, "THANKS STORM!"

She was about to say more when a shot from Demolisher blew her a couple hundred feet away, gritting, "Dude... You're so gonna pay for that!"

"NOT IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO DO ABOUT IT!" cheered Cyclonus as he rained down laser shots around Storm. "HAHAHAHA!"

Driving out of the onslaught, Storm transformed and proceeded to dive behind a coral outcropping. "Oh man! This sucks! We're surrounded and LG and Blurr are nowhere to be seen! We're so in trouble!"

Desperado was right next to her. Sheltering himself from debris by using Storm as a shield actually. A faint glint of green caught his optics as more coral chunks feel down upon the two. As the rocks shuffled he could see the glowing of a minicon panel. "HEY INSANE ONE!"

Glaring down at Desperado as he pointed away from where they were, Storm followed his gaze and smiled. "Des, I love ya!"

"Love me to death later!"

"Errr... Right! Desperado! Powerlink!" As he transformed into his dragon mode and attached himself to her back. Pulling out her machine gun she waited a second before darting out behind her cover. Aiming at Cyclonus, Storm fired mulitple shots. Out of all the shots she fired only two hit him, though it really didn't do any damage.

"Is that all you have?" Cyclonus laughed again.

"Here's more for ya!"

Turning around Cyclonus recieved a sharp kick to the head as LoneGenesis kicked off of him and backflipped right next to Storm.

"BOOT TO THE HEAD!" wooted Hunter from Genesis' shoulder.

Nodding blankly, "Yeah no kidding!" Turning towards LoneGenesis, Storm continued with her hands on her hips. "So where have you two been?"

Driving up beside the two girls, Blurr transformed. "We ran into Tidalwave along the way."

"Ahhh that explains alot."

Staggering to get up Cyclonus fired a random shot which skimmed LoneGenesis ear tips. "Ooopsies."

At this everybody present turned and looked at LoneGenesis whose ear tips were steaming and were slightly scorched. Touching a finger to her ears as crispy pieces of metal fell off, she bought her hand down and looked at it before turning to Cyclonus who twitched at her gaze. Growling she started to approach him, "Storm." her voice was stone cold at this point. "Go get the minicon... I have something to take care of." Genesis' voice held no room for argument. She clenched her hands together and cracked her metallic knuckles which made Cyc cringe even more.

Giving a startled laugh Storm answered, "Uhh.. Sure LG! Have fun!" As she literally ran off.

Blurr watching as she approached Cyc said to her, "Don't maul him like you did last time."

"Oh I won't maul him..." she had this evil sadistic smile forming on her face. "I'll just make him rue the day he did that." With that she leapt at him in a predatory fashion and proceeded to kick and punch at him, while Blurr kept Storm covered as she went for the minicon.

"See any Deceps?" asked Storm to Desperado.

Answering, "Nope, only the faint sound of Cyclonus being pummeled into the ground."

"Well that's different... Let's go!"

Staring at Storm. Desperado motioned, "Don't start to hum the 'Mission Impossible' tune again, please. Cause if ya remember the last time you did that we ran into a Decepticon."

"Ohhh... Come on Des." laughed Storm as she looked from Desperado back forward to see Starscream looking for the minicon in the rubble not even noticing the minicon was right near his feet. "Uhh..."

"Told ya so..."

"Des shut it for a minute will ya!" hissed Storm she looked over her shoulder and saw Blurr not so far away. Pointing to Starscream she motioned for him to fire a shot at the seeker.

Nodding in understanding Blurr fired a shot right over Starscream's head causing him to look up. Taking the chance Storm ran forward with Desperado holding on for dear life. She barreled right into his midsection with her head causing him to topple over. "BOOYA!" Storm quickly ran back over to the minicon panel just as Starscream was situating himself. Picking up as it continued to glow, it suddenly shined brightly and in it's place was a green, silver, and gold minicon with a head similar to RedAlert's but throw in a faceplate.

Looking around aimlessly he turned around to come face to face with Storm. "Hey! Wassup? The names F/X" He said in a somewhat ghetto-ish tone.

"My name's Storm and this is Desperado." she motioned to her shoulder where Des was currently perched in shock from the stunt Storm pulled just a few minutes before.

"Dude he looks like he's gonna barth!" laughed F/X pointing at Des who twitched slightly.

"I was thinking more along the lines of projectile vomit but that works just fine..." went Storm with an amused tone. "And you an me are going to get along just fine!"

"STORM LOOK OUT!" hollered Blurr.

She managed to duck just in time as Starscream's sword came outta nowhere. "Woah! Dude where did you come from in a hurry!"

"Talk later girly! Let's do this!" exclaimed F/X from his position in Storm's hand.

"Gotcha! F/X! TRANSFORM AND COMBINE!" Storm transformed to her car mode while Desperado fitted himself onto her trunk area while F/X transformed into a large green and silver boom box and fitted himself onto her hood. Once completed F/X started to blast the 'James Bond' theme song. O.O "UHHH. F/X I love ya man!" Storm was probably tearing at the optics with happiness. "Turn up the juice F/X and let's blow 'em away!"

The sound waves blasted through the water and easily bought down unstable coral formations, Starscream having a hard time trying to keep his feet transformed. "Forget this!" Then he warped out.

"WOOT! WE DID IT! ALRIGHTY!" cheered Storm as F/X and Desperado detached from her.

"SCORE!" F/X was on Storm's roof doing what looked like the Electric Slide. "We showed that Decep whose boss!" He continued as he continued blasting random music selections.

Desperado was on the side right next to Blurr covering their audios trying to block out the sound as HotShot and Optimus swam over.

"Okay can we turn it down?" asked Optimus loudly as F/X and Storm continued on their little victory parade as LoneGenesis and Hoist joined them.

"Oh dear lord..." started LoneGenesis as she held her sensitive ears to her head. "She had to be the one to find the minicon... We're so doomed... STORM!" she then hollered which shut the two insane partners up.

"Yups?" asked Storm innocently.

"We have to get back to the beach to get the others, Jetfire and Overcast will meet us there." Optimus said instead.

Once Again back at the Beach-

"Will they come from the sky? No they'll probably come on ground... But what if they come from the sea!" Here was Teschio back in her hole. She had her gun out and was pointing it from the air to the ground then to the ocean, playing war in a way while Kinonaru, Scavenger, and Sideswipe just lounged on the beach.

"Is she ever going to give up?" asked Sideswipe building a sand castle. (I have no idea... Their on a beach and having Sideswipe build a sand castle i thought would be just plain hilarious in my opinion... Like i said... i have no idea)

Scavenger sorta fell asleep. "zzz...zzz...zzz..."

"Take a guess Sideswipe." grunted Kinnonaru streatched out on the warm sand in her griffin mode.

"Must likely not?"

"Bingo! You win the cookie."

"Love you too Naru." he turned his back to her in a pout while she chuckled softly.

Looking towards the water Naru came to a sitting position and annouced, "Hey here they come!"

Rousing from his slumber Scavenger heaved himself to a sitting position also. "About time and what the heck is that noise?" He added as he covered his audio receptors.

"I haven't gotten a clue. But I'll bet anything that it involves Storm." Sideswipe added also covering his audios. "Hey Teschio! Here comes Optimus and the others."

She continued to ignore him as she continued to sit in her hole.

Shaking his head at the tiger he got up while Scavenger and Kinonaru followed, "Hey Optimus did ya get the minicon?"

Evrybody that went with Optimus turned their heads towards where Storm and F/X were still going at it. Sighing Prime answered, "Yes we did..." he turned again to Storm, "And at the same time I sort of wish we didn't."

"What the heck is that noise?" exclaimed Blurr covering his audios as F/X continued ot blare music. "Yeah!" Overcast protested as he and Jetfire came in for landing. "What the heck do you call that! "It's called music my friend." Teschio finally said jogging over. "It has a good beat to it too you knowTransforming to fox mode, LoneGenesis sat next to Storm wagging her tail to the beat, enjoying the music. "Sum 41... Always one of my favorite groups and one of F/X's better music selections I may add." "I know what ya mean." Storm then said, her wipers, wiping to the beat. (eee mouthful) Optimus just shoke his head. "What am I going to do with you three?" Obviously meaning Teschio, Storm, and LoneGenesis.

"Uhh... Let us loose in some canyon every now and then to work off the extra energy?" suggested Teschio.

"Not a bad idea..." muttered Jetfire from next to Optimus.

Shaking his head again Optimus finally said, "Let's get back to base. Some of us are in need of repairs." He looked over the team again. Blurr had dents, HotShot had a scorch mark on his back, and LoneGenesis' ears were still crispy and chipping away. "Alright let's get back."

Back at Autobot HQ-

"Owww... That looks like it has to sting." LoneGenesis was in Medbay getting her ears looked at by Jetstream. "Tomahawk could you get something that I can put on this?"

"Sure thing." came Tomahawk's chipper reply.

"At times it makes me wonder why does Cyclonus do stupid things such as that?" LoneGenesis said laying on a repair berth in her fox mode. "Makes me wonder ya know?"

Chuckling a little, "I agree with you there. He's apparently not the brightest of the lot."

"That's an understatement."

Jetstream laughed again as Tomahawk came flying over with a small tube in her talons. "Here ya go." She said as she deposited the tube into Jetstream's awaiting palm.

"Here this should make it sting less." she applied a pale yellow mucusy fluid to LoneGenesis ear tips.

Looking at the tube Jetstream set down in front of her Genesis asked, "What is that stuff?"

"It's a healing agent that RedAlert told me about. Sorta like antbiotic medicine in a way."

"Ahhh. I see." Grinning to herself LoneGenesis continued, "So... From what I can guess... You have a thing for RedAlert. no?"

Jetstream's her visor flashed in embarassment. "What gives you that idea?"

"The fact that I see you stare at him quite often."

Giving Genesis a smug look Streamer approached her and yanked her tail, "YEEEOOWW-" she started but stopped suddenly when Jestream held her jaws shut.

"To make you happy... Yes I think he's kinda cute... And I've seen you hanging around a certain Blurr often as well..." She gave the fox a somewhat cruel smirk as LoneGenesis sweat dropped.

Letting go of her jaws as LoneGenesis turned around a nursed her tail a little she continued. "Okay you know my secret, I know yours let's keep this between us." She held out a paw.

"Deal." Jestream said with a smile as she took Genesis paw as they shoke on it. "Now let that sit for a one to two days or once you feel it's better find me and I'll remove it."

"Sure thing." Genesis replied as she hopped down off the berth and started to stride out but stopped in the dorrway. "And I wish ya luck with RedAlert." Then she literally ran out with the door sliding shut before Jetstream could throw something at her.

"Genesis..." she growled with an amused glint in her optic visor. Turning around she started to clean up the area where she was repairing LoneGenesis when the door slid open again, sighing Jetstream said without even turning around, "LoneGenesis...""Was running down the hall." came a familar voice.Stumbling a little Jetstream spinned around to come face to face with RedAlert, "Uhhh... I thought you were LoneGenesis?" she stuttered a little."Nope just me." he smiled. "Why was she running down the hall cackling like Storm?"Jetstream twitched a little, "Something she and I were talking about that's all."

Meanwhile...

"Are they ever going to let up?""Take a guess.""Err... No?""Right you are 'Cast, right you are."Looking at his brother Overcast asked, "I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.""That... Is most likely not a good thing-" Jetfire stopped short. "You may wanna get out of the way." He couldn't be so true. Launching around the corner came Sideswipe and hot on his bumper was Teschio in tiger mode. Little did they know that coming around the other corner was LoneGenesis."Get back here you little bugger!" called Teschio still hot on his trail."Oh come on give me a break!""Not on your life!""I knew you were going to say that..." whined Sideswipe as he ripped around the right hand corner.Stopping short in the middle of the intersection, Teschio was about to round the corner after him that was until LoneGenesis came soaring through.

BAM!
