"That he wants what!? Did he get any bolt loosened?" Ratchet shouted. "And even if we were ready to help him how would we prepare such insanity?"
"Easy, Master." Knockout replied this time, instead of Raf. "You can bridge me in. I leave Rafael with you, plan the idea and I come back." Knockout explained. He heard Ratchet making complaining at the back.
"We could send one of us." Arcee suggested. "Why Knockout?"
"Because you don't know anything about the situation right here. Plus you're too slow." The 'Con replied. "Anyway, we can't continue wasting more time. Will you help your scout or not?"
"Bridge him here, Ratchet." Optimus accepted.
"K, Bumblebee, I'm coming in a breem or two, keep driving." The 'Con informed the 'Bot.
*Like I could do anything else... Take care of Rafael.* The scout warned. *If something happens to him, you will need more than a buffer for your finish.*
"Easy down, scout." The red mech replied. "Just keep driving."
"Will he be okey?" Ralf asked laying his hands on Knockout's window.
*I'll be fine, Raf. Don't worry. In few hours we will be together and safe.* He beeped tenderly. *Now go.*
Knockout accelerated, leaving Bumblebee behind again. A vortex opened and he crossed it. They appeared into the Outpost Omega One, where all the Autobots aimed at him with their plasma weapons. The 'Con opened the door and let Raf out. The kid ran up to the catwalk, with his human friends. The red mech closed his door and transformed slowly, with his servos up.
"I really would like to take part in this special party of yours, prepared exclusively for me, but... Your friend is running out of time." He said trying to hide his nervousness. He had been surrounded by Autobots before, but not in the very core of their base. "Do you have a map of the area?"
"Yes." Ratchet taped fast, and he showed the map.
"Ok, my idea is to reach this canyon. It will give us some time." He signalled the darker zone. "If we achieve it, we will have a chance. Now, I need you to get ready, because as soon as we get there, we will desperately need a ground bridge."
"We cannot locate Bumblebee." Bulkhead replied.
"But you can locate me. I won't be too far away." He said looking at the green 'Bot. "Now, can we focus on the matter?"
Arcee walked towards the 'Con, grabbing his wrist tight and making sure he fulfilled his mission. "You'd better come back with 'Bee. If not, you can drive as fast as you want or hide in your ship, because I'll go find you. Is it clear?"
"Completely self confident... Love it." He grunted smirking, getting loose his wrist. "I'd love to talk to you later, sweetspark, but now I've got a bug to save." He added cocky before transforming and disappearing through the ground bridge.
