"Bob's not a feral reprogrammed freak," Sunstreaker growled at the officers continually questioning the safety of the Insecticon's presence. "He's a normal broodling."
"Broodlings haven't been modified by Decepticons like the rest of the Insecticons," Skids explained again. "They're being out competed and driven out by their more aggressive hive members. Bob has bonded to our swarm. He helps protect and care for our hatchlings."
"We'll need to examine Bob for confirmation of your claims. I'll personally make certain he'll be unharmed," Ratchet grunted ignoring the brimming hostility from both sides. The words carried both a threat and a promise.
