'Com'

"Speech"

"Telepathy"


The low hum from the engines of the Nemesis were not noticed through the thick hull, all was quiet save for the click of pedes down the long halls. In the bridge of the warship the Communications Officer Soundwaves' spider like fingers ran over the keyboard with practiced elegance. Two blips caused the silent mech to look up, two Cybertronian lifeforms had come up on radar. Sending a quick message to Lord Megatron the officer waited for his masters reply.

Megatrons tone was harsh and cold with a tinge of madness that the Blood of Unicorn had tainted him with, 'Have Starscream insure their arrival to the nemesis; alive.'

A group of Vehicons waited for Starscream to lead them through the Ground Bridge, the Decepticon SIC glared at the silent mech and sneered with a wave of his claws, "Open the bridge." The swirl of greens and blues erupted and they passed through, Soundwave paused for a moment then closed the portal turning to return to his work once more.

The rocks vibrated with the deep growling of approaching vehicles, each noises bounced off of the jagged crags and spires. Something was off about the situation, the driving was aggressive and not within human law requirements.

Skyfall watched a group of four vehicles come into view, the coloration's a obvious give away to whom they were. "There's the Autobots," Skyfall nudged Dawnbreakers shoulder armor with a grin.

Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Bulkhead, and Arcee transformed when they were close to the femmes, weapons not activated in a attempt at peace. The tallest of the four took one step forward his blue and red armor made Sky grin wider, "Hello I am Optimus Prime, welcome to Earth. Are you both Autobots?" The Prime addressed the two femmes with a reserved yet a friendly tone.

Dawnbreaker made a move to speak to the leader of the Autobots but Sky placed a servo to her chest in warning. Just before she could run a back story to her best friend a ground bridge opened up right in front of them. "Scrap." Skyfall hissed under her breath, a battle mask slid over her mouth and an orange visor covered her optics.

Starscream walked through with confidence, his red optics falling on the two femmes standing with their backs to a rock. A whide grin made the Seeker look all the more pretentious and well Decepticon-ly, not to mention the five Vehicons following behind him with their weapons trained on Skyfall and Dawnbreaker.

"Is that a chick?" Dawnbreaker asked aloud giving Starscream a twice over with narrowed blue optics.

All hope that Skyfall had of looking badass and battle ready was blown to shit. She laughed loudly at the horrified look on Starscreams face, she had to lean against the rock for support as she gasped in air to cool her systems. She could hear the snickering of Bulkhead and Bumblebee adding to Starscreams torture.

Face contorted in anger and embarrassment Starscream balled is servos into fists wings raised high in frustration he growled. "I am NOT a femme!"

Dawnbreakers blue optics widened. "Whoah dude you look like a lady, look even his heels are taller than yours Sky!"

Sky howled with laughter at that comment having to clutch her friends shoulder armor for support. Snarling Starscream aimed his missile at the two, "You think that's FUNNY?!" The Seeker was bristling, absolutely livid at the situation. Being humiliated by Megatron was one thing but being humiliated by two unknown femmes, right in front of the Autobots and his own subordinates. Oh, the Deception Second in Command was shaking with rage. "I'll show you funny!" He braced himself and fired the missile at the two, both Femmes dogged the attack rolling to the side they stood in front of the Autobots.

"I'm sorry, but I cant take you seriously when you flick your hips like that," Skyfall snickered flicking a pebble from her armor. "But by all means throw your little temper tantrum." Skyfall knew she was goading the SIC and probably digging her own grave but to hell if it wasn't fun.

"You two are coming with me!"

"That's not going to happen Starscream," Optimus said his cannon pointed at the Seeker, the other Autobots had gone on the defensive and circled the two femmes. "For as long as there are Autobots no Cybertronian shall be subjugated to the Decepticon ways with out a fight."
Turning to the Vehicons, Starscream snarled, "What are you waiting for? Get them!"

It was a mess, shots fired from both sides with Dawn and Sky providing cover fire to the best of their ability. In the fray they must have lost sight of Starscream cause when Skyfall went to land one more vicious blow to the Vehicon her wrist was snapped into a stasis cuff. Whirling around she gasped when the other wrist was snapped in as well, her orange visor flashed with the sight of Starscreams grin. 'Oh you're so dead sweet cheeks!'

"Got one, Soundwave ground bridge now!" The swirling vortex appeared behind them and Starscream shoved her threw it, she hated how easily man handled the cuffs made her. Vehicons providing cover fire, Starscream managed to escape with Skyfall. The sounds of Dawnbreaker yelling her name echoed in her audios.

Claws pressed the junction between her wings guiding her forward, she growled low at the touch hating how the Seeker used such a sensitive aria to his advantage. She could hear him chuckle and proceeded to move his servo to run his claws over a sensitive wing in a teasing manor. Skyfall bristled and let out a vicious snarl slamming the cuffs into his face, grabbing Starscreams arm she flung him over her shoulder. The SIC clanged loudly as he smacked hard onto the bridge floor with a yelp. Turning the grey Lamborghini grabbed the nearest Vehicon and slammed her head into it's, throwing the body at the others and launching herself at the last remaining Vehicon who was about to shoot at her. Sliding her leg down she swiped his pedes causing him to crash onto the floor. Standing up strait she strode over to Starscream who was trying to get up, she placed her pede on his shoulder holding him down, moving so that her face was close to his she retracted her battle mask and visor. In a dangerous tone she spoke with cold fury, "Touch me like that again and I'll rip your wings off." Looking up her orange optics met with cold red ones, Megatron had been watching her.

The Decepticon leader frowned arms crossed over a large scarred chassis, "Get out of my sight Starscream." The said scrambled up and glared at Skyfall as he retreated. She stood up strait and bowed to Megatron, the war lord lifted a brow to her in his own version of surprise. Stepping up to the smaller femme he looked her over with a critical glare, circling her once. "What is your designation."

"Skyfall sir."

The warlord hummed and stepped back, "And what is your allegiance in this war?" Large clawed servos motioned to her unmarked armor.
"I was in a prolonged stasis till recently sir. For that I have no allegiance, yet, my Lord." Skyfall paused and took a quick intake, "If I may, I would like to join the Decepticons. Of course only by your permission Lord Megatron"

Red optics gave no hint to what the ex-gladiator was thinking, Megatron then grinned cruelly showing off wickedly shard denta, "You have proven to be capable of holding your own with my SIC." Megatron hummed again rubbing his chin with his servo. "You will be tested on your loyalty, then I may decide to keep you."

"Thank you Lord Megatron."

"Don't thank me yet." The massive mech sneered, "Soundwave attach our new arrival to the Cortical Psychic Patch."

'Oh fuck sticks.'

Dawnbreaker slammed her fist into the dirt from where she fell to her knees, her vocals still ached from yelling her best friends name. Energon dripped from a wound on her faceplate falling onto the dusty earth, a servo was placed on her shoulder, she looked up at Bumblebee with sad optics. "She's gone."

The yellow and black scout shook his helm, "We'll get her back." he beeped.

Larger footsteps came up to her from the front, Dawnbreaker looked at Optimus Prime who held his servo out to her. Taking the offered help she stood facing the red and blue mech, "Bumblebee is right we will do everything we can to get her back. But for now we need to return to base. Ratchet we need a ground bridge, ready the medbay for a new friend."

Walking through the ground bridge Dawnbreaker looked at the old human missile silo with a slight smile, it was strange how something human built can remind you of what you really were. She was lost in thought staring at the base, till she was bombarded by questions from a boisterous human girl who stood on a balcony of some sort leaning against a couch where two other human children stood. They were a bit younger than Dawnbreaker was but still of similar age.

"Whats your name? What do you transform into? Are you a car? A sports car? Are you a kick butt fighter? What kind of weapon do you use? How did you get here? Didn't Ratchet say there was two of you?"

"MIKO!" Bulkhead groaned at his human charge. "I'm sorry about her she doesn't know boundaries."

Dawnbreaker held a hand up to the green Wrecker with a smile, "It's fine. My name is Dawnbreaker, I transform into a sports car. I fight alright if I do say so myself, I use a close combat shotgun and a energon tomahawk. I don't remember how I got here, and yes I had my friend with me but she was taken by the Decepticons."

"I'm sorry about your friend," the oldest, probably around fifteen, walked closer to the rails till he leaned on them with a sad smile. "I'm Jack and this is Raf, you already met Miko." He motioned a smaller boy with Jimmy Neutron like hair, she gave him a polite nod.

"You must be worried about your friend, I don't know what I'd do if Bee was captured." Raf said softly looking over to his guardian then back at the flat grey McLauren.

Dawnbreaker laughed surprising the humans and the Autobots, "She'll be fine, I almost feel sorry for the Decepticons! I hope Starscream isn't as dumb as he looks and gets within reach, then he's in for it! Skyfall tends to take her anger out on others."

"Oh! She sound like my kinda girl!" Miko cheered with a fist bump and an air guitar solo.

"Yeah you and her would get along like cats and warm blankets." Dawn tensed when she felt their bond come back in full force, a wave of fear that was not her own overwhelmed her senses. Dawnbreaker then heard Sky mutter a horrified 'Oh fuck sticks.' through their link.
