Chapter 8
"Holy Primus," Smokescreen whispered, stepping forward to take a closer look at the boy. "How are you...I mean, how...organic?" He struggled to find the words.
"Nightfire?" Sam asked, curious and unsure what was going on.
"It is his designation," Bumblebee answered in complete shock from finding the sparkling that two of his superiors sent away for his own safety. :Bumblebee to Optimus:
:What is it Bee?: Optimus voice commed through.
"Wait," Sam said, getting everything through his mind, "What you said earlier, are you part of their race or whatever?"
"Yeah. Like I said it's a long story."
:I have two reports. One, Smokescreen and I encountered Starscream. Second, when we encountered Starscream we found Nightfire.:
:Not at all what I expected: Smokescreen commed through, adding his own voice. He lowered his hand, motioning for Nightfire to climb on, which he did. He brought him close. "Well, now, everything changes."
:Change of plans then. I will let Prowl and Jazz know that you found him. In the meantime, keep him with you. We will be to Earth in a few joors. Optimus out.:
_(Prowl Transition)_
Optimus got off the comm-link and headed off to find his SIC and TIC. As he was searching for them, he past spark-mates and couldn't help but smile at them. He spotted Ratchet and Mirage talking to their son, First Aid. When the war started to go bad to worse, First Aid signed himself up to be in the army. Mirage wasn't at the base at the time but Ratchet was, and, Primus, Ratchet was ever blowing up. He heard the CMO shout at his son, telling him how dangerous it was and that he needed to go somewhere safe. First Aid didn't listen to him;but it was obvious how scared Ratchet and Mirage was for him.
He found Prowl and Jazz in Jazz's office-which was probably the only time Prime ever seen Jazz in his own office. The door was open and he could see the two mechs smiling at each other. He knocked on the side, Jazz moved his optics towards the bigger bot. "Hey-a Prime."
"Hello, Optimus."
Optimus smiled. "Smokescreen and Bumblebee met Nightfire."
"THEY DID?!" Jazz shot up, climbing over Prowl to get to Optimus. "Is he okay? Wha-"
"Whoa, whoa," Optimus interrupted, getting his TIC to calm down. "He's fine. Bumblebee and Smokescreen encountererd Starscream at the time they found out."
"Starscream?" Prowl questioned. "I thought he was dead."
"Injured, not dead," Jazz clearified. "Anyways, did Starscream found out about Nightfire? That means he's in danger!"
"Bee and Smokescreen found out after the figh; Starscream does not know."
"Thank Primus,"Prowl and Jazz sighed together.
"However, we need to get to Earth immediately. If Starscream is there then he'll be leading the Decepticons,"he said.
:Prime to all Autobots. Get geared up, we are leaving for Earth now.:
_(Prowl Transition)_
"So, " Nightfire started as Sam slowly made his way next to his friend, "that was some killer-robot fighting skills." Sam looked at him sideways, Nightfire shrugged. "It was the only thing I could came up with."
Bumblebee chuckled. "Come. We must meet the others. They will be here in a joor or two."
"Others?" Sam asked.
"You think we would be alone coming to a strange planet?"Smokescreen asked. "The others are in space they will be landing soon." He transformed back into his vehicle mode. "Now, Nightfire you're with me. Sam you're with Bee."
Bumblebee transformed into his vehicle mode and Sam was already going to him. Nightfire stared at the other bot. "I, uh, I gotta go with Sam. After all-"
Smokescreen opened his passenger door. "Nightfire, you can trust me. I will protect you, always and forever." Nightfire couldn't tell what was in Smokescreen's tone but it made his heart throb. He frowned at the feeling; it wasn't something he felt before. Nightfire shrugged it off and sighed before climbing in. "I told you, you can trust me."
"I'm still wondering," he said. "Just 'coz I recognize you, doesn't mean I trust you."
Smokescreen started driving down the road with Bumblebee coming from behind. "Well, we have time to get to know each other more. Catch up."
Nightfire sucked in a breath. "Okay. Lets do the '20 Questions'."
"The what?" Smokescreen asked, confused.
"You ask me a question, I'll answer. Then I ask you a question and you answer," Nightfire explained very simply.
"Sounds fairly easy." Smokescreen halted at a red light.
"Who was that you and Bee fought?"
"Starscream. He's the SIC of the Decepticons. He is somewhat loyal and disloyal to the Decepticon leader, Megatron, but every bot knows that Starscream isn't fully in the processor," Smokescreen answered. The light turned green and he started driving again. "Who takes care of you here?"
"Epps and Lennox,"Nightfire answered, putting his head on the window."They are soliders." He looked out the window.. "Why are you here ?
"There's an ongoing war and the only way to bring our home planet back to life and end the war is getting the Allspark, which is somewhere on your planet," Smokescreen said. :Optimus to Smokescreen and Bumblebee.:
:Sir: The two scouts replied.
:We will be landing soon. Meet us in an isolated area.:
:Yes, sir. Scouts out:
Smokescreen moved his mirror to look at the boy. "Ready to meet your Creators, kid?"
