Starscream has returned! YAY! But, well, it's not exactly a happy occasion. You'll see. Oh, and just to let you know, I'm using SEVERAL Oc's in this chapter. And the next one. Sorry, guys! –sweatdrop- This story's getting a wee bit darker.

Chapter 6: Missing?! HOW?!

Starscream had returned. That was the only promise he'd kept in a long time. And with several new recruits.

-

"FRENZY! WHERE'S TURRET?!"

"I don't know! Shesheshe disappered!"

Looking up, Barricade saw several falling objects from the sky. Decepticons? "Come on, Frenzy. Looks like Starscream wasn't lying this time."

-

"Move your afts! Come on, come on! Before the Autobots show their ugly faces!" Several young looking recruits were scrambling around the area, searching for alt modes. One lucky bugger by the name of Cryos actually landed near a car show. Once they found a decent alt mode, they headed for the meeting point, where Starscream had indicated. His landing place.

But…they were being pursued. That's why all the urgency.

-

'Cade and Frenzy were making their way to the abandoned field that Starscream had landed in. "Ah, Barricade. We have a surprise for you." "We?" asked the black and white mech. The Seeker looked out onto the other side of his landing spot. Several cars drove through the grass, transforming before they slowed down. Two femmes and three mechs.

-

Transforming, Barricade looked the recruits over. They didn't seem intimidated at all. "Alright, 'Cade, ready for the surprise?" "Er…Starscream, there's something you should know." He explained the entire thing to the Seeker, as the recruits listened, slightly confused.

-

"…So you've been playing Sparkling sitter since I left?" asked Starscream, snickering. 'Cade nodded. "Then this should be no problem for you. Bring him out." A black armored mech, thiner then his companions, pulled out a ball of white armor from a cage like pod that he'd brought with him.…but on closer inspection, it was a trembling sparkling.

An Autobot sparkling.

-

"Ugh…" Prime slouched against the wall of the temporary HQ, dents and scratches covering his armor. "I told you, Prime. I told you she was trouble." Sunny was smiling smugly. He'd complained to Prime about Turret. Bumblebee had done the same. Optimus hadn't believed them.

That is, until he found her wandering the base.

The rest, as humans said, was history.

Turret had put up some kind of fight. Apparently, she'd learned how to make her arm into a canon. No doubt she had been watching Ironhide practice. The little femme was tough, but with Sunny's help, he'd managed to subdue her.

He'd basically made her fall into recharge and placed her in a temporary holding cell.

Sunny hadn't been lying when he said she was a terror.

Sorry, for so many fanbots…I'm kinda at a blank right now. But now I have an excuse for a fight scene! YAY! 8D
