Hey people what up. I can't believe that so many people are reading this story. It came as such a shock. Sorry that I haven't been keeping up like I promised. It's been real hard right now. No job, a nephew to take care of, a sick grandmother in the hospital and the list goes on. I wanted to get this chapter up a few weeks ago but things didn't work out the way I wanted. So before I bore you all to tears please enjoy this new chapter of Back Again.

(Autobot Control Room- Moonmist)

I calmly watched as my mate had a panic attack in front of the computer screen. All the Autobots in the room were beginning to look worried as they listened to the unknown language spewing from his mouth. I can only imagine who had answered and I didn't like any of the ideas I was thinking of.

"Shouldn't we do something?"

I looked up at Ratchet before shaking my head. It was better to let Cheetor's steam run out before asking questions. If you interrupted him in his rant then all you would get would unintelligible answers. Tigertron and Airazor were watching from a safe corner of the room. They had seen the things Cheetor had done when in this mode.

"First we need to find out what set him off and the best way to do that would be to listen. He might give us a clue. I've gone through this plenty of times before so I know what to do."

As we waited I made sure I caught every word Cheetor spoke. Some I recognized and others just didn't make any sense in this situation but it was when he was finally winding down that I finally caught one little word.

"… Megatron….."

I looked over to the console with a feared glance. I looked back to see Cheetor sitting on the floor with his head in between his knees. The other two were slowly making their way towards him so I headed to the computer. I put the headset on and listened to the static hoping for some clue but they had already cut the connection. I set it to rewind and unhooked the headset.

"So what's going on? Was it someone you know?"

"Basically all I got from Cheetor was 'Megatron'? As you can tell this is not a good situation."

I was completely petrified at the moment. If Megatron had Blackarachnia and Silverbolt then they could find out information that could effectively end our existence. If the information I got from Cybertron was accurate then Blackarachnia was in a very dangerous situation. We needed to make sure we got those two out as quickly as possible.

"Jazz I'm gonna need the plans for the Nemesis. We need to be able to get in and get out within a certain amount of time."

"We could always go get them ourselves or even trade energon for them. You make it sound they're in danger?"

My fellow beast warriors all turned to look at me. Cheetor had now gotten a grip on himself and was staring at me with a horrified look. He remembered the disk information now. Tigertron and Airazor still didn't know because we wanted to wait for all of us to be together. They may not have known the reasons why we were keeping secrets about where we were from but they trusted us enough to know there was a deeper reason why we didn't say anything.

"Because they're our friends and you don't even know what they look like."

"We could still help you if…..."

"All I need are the semantics of the Nemesis. If you don't have them then I'll just ask Teletraan for them."

"There's no need to get confrontational Moonmist. Jazz will get you the plans but maybe we should try and see if Megatron is willing to barter for them."

"You don't get it! He's not gonna trade for them. We are unknown to him and he's gonna want to know where we came from and he's not gonna give them up until he's knows. Our friends are in a dangerous situation and they don't even know it. Asking nicely is not going to do anything except convince Megatron that they are worth something. We are doing this our way because they're our friends. You have no authority over us or them."

Everyone was completely silent as most couldn't believe that I had actually yelled at Prime and told him no as well. Cheetor was sending calming waves to my spark. I took a deep breath and smiled at my mate.

A small beep told me it was finished loading the plans. I brought it onto the screen as the others came to study it as well.

"We need to figure out where they are being held. I want to be in and out within an hour guys. I don't care if they are underwater. You've got ten minutes to find the way in, figure which way would be quicker to reach the brig and find out if there is any way possible to make a quick exit if we need to."

I had already gone through all the things we had salvaged from our ship as well as Tigertron and Airazor's things. It's not enough to make this mission east but I've worked with less before. The one thing I had to make sure was that we didn't actually harm the Decepticons severely. I may not like them and I was concerned for Blackarachnia and Silverbolt's safety but I wasn't stupid enough to cause any of my fellow beast warrior's pain. Or worse, cease to exist.

"It looks like we'll be busy with a rescue mission, guys. But first we'll need some things."

Prowl immediately stepped forward with a very serious face.

"I know you're willing to help with this Prowl but I'll need the twins and of course Jazz for this."

I don't know who was more shocked, Prowl or the twins. Jazz just stood there watching his mate to make he didn't crash. I turned to my fellow beast warriors before they could start asking questions.

"Cheetor. Tigertron. I need the two of you to talk with Jazz over a list of items we will need for this. Even if they don't have exactly what we need try to get as close to it as possible." My tone scared most of the mechs in the room but Cheetor matched it with his own determined look while Tigertron just shook his head and groaned. He gave me a sloppy salute before dragging Tigertron out with him and motioning Jazz to follow him. I turned to Airazor.

"I'll be giving the coordinates of where there ship is at. I want you to head there and see what you can find out but do your best to stay out of sight. Try to sneak on the ship and gather anything we'll need. If you can destroy the ship but do it discreetly."

"There are many different ways that you call discreet. Whose way am I supposed to be doing?"

I thought quietly for a moment thinking which one would offer the best results. Some of them were too obvious and others were at a level that Airazor just couldn't compete with. I nodded my head when I thought of the best one.

"We'll go with Blackarachnia for now but if gets to be too much then I would switch with Rattrap."

"You actually think I can do Blackarachnia?"

"If I say you can do it then that has to tell you something."

"Darn you're right. When do you want me back?"

"I'm giving you five hours. Any longer and I shall proceed with retrieval plan D, got it?"

"You wouldn't dare!"

"Try me now get your feathered butt out there."

She gave me a dirty look but followed my orders with a lot of grumbling. I smiled as Cheetor and Tigertron came back in carrying a large crate each.

"Moonmist, what is retrieval plan D?"

All three of us answered. "You don't wanna know."

A moment of silence.

"Are you gonna tell us what's in the crates?"

"Nope."

"Why not?"

"Prowl might confiscate it."

"Is the stuff in this crate legal?"

"….Not in this galaxy."

"Moonmist!"

"What? I didn't steal it if that's what you're thinking."

"Then how did you get?"

"I just 'borrowed it from the twins secret stash and Jazz's as well. With just a few things from Ratchet's too."

"Cheetor remind me again why you bonded to her."

"Because she's kick-ass in battle, she's the most gorgeous creature that I know and she's worth all the pain I go through with or without her."

"Aw Cheetor, you say the sweetest things."

"Oh gag me with a spoon."

"Shut up Sideswipe. You'll know what it's like once you get your head out of your aft and find out someone has feelings for you. Though it might be a century or two before that happens."

"Hey!"

"Alright Cheetor I need items 13, 47, 52, 17, 85 and 91 in that order."

" Moonmist we don't even have item 13 and 91 will have an even lower reaction then what we're use to because it's not made with our chemicals."

"Damn! Item 91 was one of my favorites? Using them on Decepticons would've really made my day a whole lot better. Oh well, I guess I'm just gonna have to deal with it."

"Try not to sound too disappointed Moonmist."

"Oh alright fine switch item 91 with item 22."

"Moonmist!"

"What? I thought you like those two items because of the reaction they make."

"I know but I wanna see if items 63 and 9 give us a better reaction then what 28 and 71 did."

Another moment of silence.

"This is one of the reasons I fell in love with you Cheetor and also the reason my creators would've approved of you if they knew."

(Airazor)

I just knew something bad would happen but I knew that if I complain and Moonmist hears of it then I would be in a load of trouble. It's like it was all my fault the others found out who changed everyone's vocalizers back on the Axalon. I must've done something really bad in a past life for this to happen. Of all the Decepticons to find me it just had to be Skywarp. I have nothing against any of the seekers but I was hoping it would be his wingmate, Thundercracker.

"I've never seen a bird as big as you before. I have to say your wings are just magnificent. They are just works of art. Bet you're extremely proud of them."

I couldn't help but straighten up a little at his praise. It wasn't often that I got some. I was hoping he'd leave soon though. I didn't want him getting suspicious. Thankfully, my reprieve was his mate.

-Thundercracker to Skywarp. Are you there?-

-This is Skywarp. What do you need TC?-

-We need to start our patrol. I've been waiting for like ten minutes now.-

-Oops sorry TC. I'll be right there.-

"So sorry to leave you so suddenly but I must head on my way for my mate. May we fly another day, beautiful flyer."

I watched him transform and fly off into the mountains. I waited for the sound of his engines to fade completely before taking off over the ocean. As I got closer to the coordinates Moon gave me I started giving off static bursts through my comm. Link. It was a little trick Moonmist and Cheetor had done. It was basically a mix of Autobot and Decepticon Morse code. It had taken years for them to make it but it had definitely been worth the effort.

I was getting desperate as I waited for an answer. I didn't want to stay in the area for very long. The Decepticons would become wary of a large hawk flying over their base. When I finally decided to give up and head back I finally got an answer. It was weak but at least it was something. They were in the Constructicon's Bay. I wasn't really surprised. Megatron must be very curious on how we are modeled. Once I had pinpointed their location I headed back to land. I knew Moonmist and Cheetor were gonna have so much fun on this mission.

(Optimus Prime)

My men and I were on the far side of the control room. The evil cackles Moonmist and Cheetor were giving off were starting to worry us all. They were digging through the box and pulling things out and looking at it before attaching it to something else. Most of the items sent warnings through my mind. I could just tell this day would end in chaos.

When the two suddenly stopped moving altogether made all of us freeze as well. Their faces went through a set of different emotions. First it was acceptance, then it went to alarmed and then finally pure joy but it wasn't the kind that filled you with happiness. This look sent fear through us all. Primus save us all.

(Moonmist)

When Airazor gave us the confirmation of Silverbolt and Blackarachnia's location, I knew we needed to do this quick for their sake. I gathered our things while Cheetor went to check with the twins and Jazz. Cheetor had already given Red Alert our comm. Link codes so we could signal for help if we needed it. I looked to Prime.

"We just need four hours at the most. But don't really start panicking until at least five hours go by alright?"

"Are you sure you don't need anything else?"

"I'm pretty sure we don't need anyone else. We have done this before. The only difference is they're Decepticons and twice as big and three times more dangerous." I mutter quietly.

"What was that?"

"On nothing. Just me saying a prayer."

I turned away and headed for the exit quickly with Cheetor and the three Autobots behind me, snickering under their breaths. I spun quickly to give them the evil eye. Cheetor quickly transformed with the others following after him. Jazz opened his door for Tigertron as he couldn't travel at the speeds Cheetor and I are capable of maintaining.

"Wish us luck mechs. If we can pull this off we'll have our aerial commander and scientist again."

We started our rockets and took off to one of the most dangerous places on the planet, the Decepticon base. Oh the evil, I mean, fun we will unleash.

I hope you all have a Happy New Year. I hope to have the next chapter of Unknown Power up soon. I'm still trying to get use to this new computer. I had to wait forever before I could get Word for it. Please review because they make me happy. And just wait to see what I have planned for the Cons in the next chapter.
