"Enter", Prime said, while typing on his laptop. Sideswipe walked in and stood in front of Prime's desk.

"Give me 5 minutes, Sideswipe, then I'll talk with you", said Optimus.

"I didn't mean to interrupt your work, Prime. I can come back later or just IM you later tonight", Sideswipe said.

"It's quite alright, Sideswipe. I wasn't working. I was just sending an email to Magnus back on Cybertron, explaining what happened here", Prime said, as he was shutting his laptop down.

After it completely shut down, Prime pressed a button on his desk and the computer slid into a secret compartment inside the desk.

"Alright, Sideswipe, what can I do for you?", asked Optimus.

"I want answers, Prime. I thought she was our friend, our fellow Autobot, and mine and Sunny's adopted sister? Why'd she screw us, Prime? Why?", asked Sideswipe.

"I'm still trying to answer that, myself, Sideswipe. What of Blaster? Ratchet say anything on his condition, yet?", Prime replied.

"I wouldn't know. I haven't been in there today. I prefer to stay in piece, thanks. You might ask Jazz", Sideswipe said.

"I'll call him in shortly. How's your brother? He hasn't done anything seriously drastic, has he?", asked Optimus.

"No, he hasn't. He didn't even look up from his laptop when I left our shared room. For that matter, he's been quiet since we came back inside. I'm worried about him, Prime. He was more protective of her than I was. Sunny didn't want to see her get hurt", said Sideswipe.

Back at Decepticon HQ, I was sitting in my old room, thinking about what I did to Prime and everyone. I felt bad for what I did. So, I did the one thing I knew would get me killed by Megatron. I tapped into the main computer from my laptop, then DLed all the info on the Autobots' defense system.

After it was done, I put it on CD, attached a note to the CD, then left the base. Deep down, I know I'm doing the right thing. I also know that when Megatron finds out what I did, he's going to deem me unworthy to be a Decepticon. I'll probably never get to see my kids again, but its well worth it for what I'm doing.

I was about 10 miles out when someone came over my comm. I did a scan before replying. I was surprised that it Screamer. "Hey Screamer, what brings you out here on such a beautiful day?", I asked.

"I should ask you the same thing, Wolf. Looks like you're heading towards Autobot HQ. May I ask why? Not thinking of betraying the Decepticons, are you? Or my brother, for that matter?", Screamer replied.

"I have Autobot friends, Starscream. I would never hurt Skywarp. I love him. He's my bondmate", I said.

"And what about the Decepticons? Are you betraying them?", asked Starscream.

Before I had a chance to reply, I was attacked by a small group of Autobots led by Ironhide. Starscream was about to attack the Autobots, but I told him to get out of here. "I'm not like Megatron. I won't leave you behind", Screamer said.

"I told you to leave, Starscream. It's me they want. Prime knows about the info I stole. He wants it back. And I'm not about to give it back anytime soon", I said.

Back at Decepticon HQ, Skywarp looked all over for me. He even asked Megatron if he's seen me. "I dismissed her after she uploaded the information to our computer. I haven't seen her since, Skywarp. Have you checked her old living quarters?", Megatron asked.

"Yes, I have. This is all I found", Skywarp said, handing his leader the note.

Megatron wasn't happy to find out that I had betrayed him. "What is it, Lord Megatron?", asked Skywarp.

Megatron looked over at Soundwave. "Soundwave, eject Laserbeak. I have a mission for him", said Megatron. Soundwave nodded then ejected Laserbeak.

Shortly after Laserbeak left, Skywarp asked what that was all about and why he was sending Laserbeak after me. "I'll tell you after you get your boys and yourself packed. I'm also sending Thundercracker with you, too. I'm sending you all to Cybertron", Megatron said.

"I mean no disrespect sir, but I think I deserve to know what's going on. Especially, when it involves my bondmate. Now spill it!", Skywarp said, getting mad.

Megatron was absolutely appalled at the way Skywarp, his own son, was talking to him. But he knew that Skywarp had the right to know.

"I'll tell you after you get your boys packed, Skywarp", said Megatron. Skywarp nodded, then he left to get his boys packed.

When he arrived at TC's room, he knocked on the door. "Hold on a sec, 'Warp", TC said, as he paused the game. He got up from the game and answered his door. He wasn't expecting Skywarp to look so sad like he does now.

"Come on in, 'Warp. Tell me what's on your mind", TC said, as he gestured 'Warp inside.

"Are my boys still here, TC?", asked Skywarp.

"Yeah, they're in the other room, waiting for me. What's going on, 'Warp? Why the sad look on your face?", asked TC.

"I don't know what's going on, TC. Megatron had Soundwave send Laserbeak after her. She didn't even ask about the boys. I hope she didn't do what I think she did", Skywarp said.

"What do you think she might have done, 'Warp?", TC asked.

"Probably had a change of spark and decided to return the Autobot defense system tech specs. Which means she's probably a prisoner by now", said Skywarp.

"Why don't you email the Autobot twins and find out", said TC.

"I have to get the boys packed right now. Would you do it for me, TC?", Skywarp asked.

"Yeah, sure. Skycracker, Skystreaker! Your father is here!", TC yelled.

Skycrcacker and Skystreaker came out of the game room to see their father. "Hey dad!", they both said in unison.

"Hi boys. Come on, I need you to get packed. The 4 of us are going to Cybertron until Megatron says otherwise", said Skywarp.

Skycracker noticed that his father was upset about something. "You ok, dad? And where's mom?", Skycracker asked.

"No, I'm not ok, son. I believe your mother has been taken prisoner by the Autobots. I think she tried to return the information that she stole from them", Skywarp said.

"Why would she do that, dad? I thought she was a Decepticon and loyal to Grandpa Megatron?", Skystreaker said.

"That's what I thought, too, Skystreaker. I think that's why Megatron is sending us to Cybertron. He doesn't want us going after her. He's also sending TC with us, too", said Skywarp.

By the time I was caught, I had been seriously hurt. My right arm, that had been replaced, was dangling at my side. I really had doubted that Ratchet was going to fix it. Especially, after he finds out that he was deceived. On our way back to base, Jazz walked next to me. I looked at him. It was a look that I hadn't seen on him in a long time. He was so sad. I had to find out what was wrong. He was still my friend. Just like Sunny and Sides were still my adopted brothers.

When we reached the front of the base, I noticed that Prime and the Lambo Twins were standing outside. I knew that Prime wasn't happy with what I did. I had betrayed his trust. And I wouldn't blame him if he wanted to throw me straight into the brig without repairs. The twins, on the other hand, were another story.

Sunny had noticed that I was hurt. Sunny was very protective of me. He didn't like the idea of a femme out fighting if she didn't need to be. Sides, however, knew that I could handle my own in a fight. He knew I was no weakling. I was rather strong for a femme.

"Sunny, I'm ok. I just don't have the use of my right arm at the moment", I said, as he started to lunge himself at Ironhide.

"Sideswipe, get your brother out of here before he gets hurt", Prime ordered.

"Yes sir! Come on, bro. Let's go see if Ratchet will take care of her arm", Sides said, as he pulled his twin brother away from Ironhide.

After they were out of sight, Prime walked up to me. "Release her, Ironhide. I'll take her to my office", said Optimus.

"But Prime...she's a thief! She's going down to the brig", Ironhide said.

"I'll take her down after I have a talk with her. Now, why don't you go report to Prowl and take the rest of the day off, old friend. You deserve it", Prime said.

Before Ironhide left, he stared at me. "You're fraggin' lucky, Deceptibitch. If it were me, you'd be dead right now", Ironhide said into my audio receptor.

I looked at him and narrowed my optics. "Deceptibitch! How dare you, 'Hide! You're damn lucky Prime is here. I'd kick your sorry aft back to Cybertron and back to your little girlfriend", I said.

"Enough! There will be no more of this petty fighting! I will talk to you later, Ironhide! You are hereby restricted to your quarters until I talk to you. Now, everyone go inside. I will deal with her, myself", said Optimus.

After everyone left, Prime asked me how it went. "Got everything you wanted, Prime. I think we played it well. Don't you?", I asked.

"Of course. Then Megatron couldn't tell the difference between the real defense system specs and the fake?", Prime replied.

"Nope. But I do feel bad for leaving my bondmate and twin boys, Prime", I said.

"I understand, Wolf. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices. Even when you don't want to. I'll have Sideswipe email Thundercracker to tell him...", said Optimus.

"No. I'll do it. 'Warp would be online right about now, anyways. I think you'd like my twin boys, Prime. Skycracker and Skystreaker. They're absolute angels. They'd make the Lambo Twins look bad", I said.
