a/n: LALALALALALALA…Anyways, that's out of my system.

Vodid: There is something between Smokey and Nightfire XD

Tressa: Unfortunately Bluestreak and Smokescreen aren't brothers in my verse, but they are close friends tho. I have been working on a story for Prowl and Jazz during the war and I believe you'll like it XD

Chapter 16

If there was one thing Nightfire had to admit was that he was done of school for the day; well, he was mostly done of dealing with Sam's damn attitude. Non-stop in almost all the classes he had with his friend, Sam would go on and on either about a girl, which Nightfire had lost the name of, and him ranting how he didn't have his car. Nightfire had called Smokescreen when he was on break to come and pick him up, unfortunately Smokescreen was going to be thirty minutes late.

"I'm just saying I would like to have my car back," Sam mumbled.

Nightfire looked at him. "Your car, like I said for the millionth time, is a Cybertron solider, so as long as their war is going on, he is going to be needed."

"But-"

"Sam, seriously, shut it," Nightfire said, as he was putting his books in his bag. "If you have a problem, call Bee and talk to him about it." With that, Nightfire grabbed his bag and walked out of the classroom. He walked outside, right now he just couldn't be around Sam and his attitude.

Blaster didn't move at all. He was still on the edge on his knees, looking down to where the young medic fell. Megatron had pulled him down, and Primus knows if… How am I going to break this to Mirage and Ratchet? Blaster thought to himself. With strength, he managed to pick himself up and slowly walked to the entrance. :Power off the weapons:

:Yes, sir: Came Arcee and Blurr reply.

Just before Blaster got to the door, he heard a voice saying, "Primus, that scared me." Blaster whirled around, seeing First Aid climbing up from the side. The young medic got to his feet. "It really did."

"Aid! You're alive!" Blaster went over and hugged the younger mech. "How?"

"Carrier gave me one of his hooks just in case," First Aid said. Blaster and First Aid walked to the entrance. "So how about we don't tell my Creators about me almost dying?"

Blaster chuckled. "How about I tell the Commanders and you can hide in Pipes quarters?"

First Aid nodded. "Sounds good."

:Moonracer, put the Arc on super speed. I would like to be back at the base quickly:

:Yes, sir:

First Aid opened the door and went in. Blaster had decided that he was going to wait until he get back to talk to Optimus. With Megatron being back after eons of being thought dead, this was going to change the war for the worse.

_(Skywarp Transitions)_

Smokescreen had came out of his quarters, he hid in there when Sideswipe and Sunstreaker was looking for him to help pull a prank on Inferno. He wasn't sure if they actually did prank Inferno or not, even if they did, Red Alert will be wired up about if he did find out. He started to go towards the exit before running into Ironhide. "Where ya going, kid?" the older mech asked.

"Out to pick up Nightfire," he said.

Ironhide nodded. "Prowl and Jazz are itching to have some quality time with him anyways. Besides, once he's here, it'll get those two off my aft."

Smokescreen chuckled a bit, before quieting. "He is asking questions about the past."

"Oh," was all Ironhide said. "Any exact answers he was looking for?"

"No," Smokescreen said. "I know about Jazz and Prowl's relationship and how at times it did seem like Prowl was going to leave him but I will let them decide whether or not they want to tell him."

"Good." Smokescreen watched as Optimus, Prowl, Jazz and the two human soldiers were coming into the Rec Room.

"Ironhide, have you finished he-"

Ironhide cut him off. "I am."

Prowl nodded then looked to Smokescreen. "Are you busy right now, Smokescreen?"

"I am actually going to go pick Nightfire up," he said. He thanked Primus that he was or not he would be doing what ever it is Prowl wanted him to do. He noticed the two organics looking up at him. Those two are his caregivers at the moment until the war was done or Prowl and Jazz take him back, and it was most likely going to be option number two. "If that is alright. He said he was up for dealing with school right now."

Lennox looked at Epps. "Yeah and I'm only agreeing to this because I'm hungry right now, so make sure he gets some food before he comes here."

"Will do." Smokescreen quickly transformed and zoomed off.

Prowl turned to Ironhide. "Iro-"

"Nope, I'm on a break."

-_(Skywarp Transition)_

Nightfire was waiting outside for Smokescreen, he had received the Autobot message plus Epps' message about getting him and Lennox some food. Within a couple of minutes, he spotted Smokescreen flying around the corner and coming to a halt in front of the school. Nightfire took his bag and climbed into Smokescreen. "Have you received the message from Epps?" Smokescreen asked, immediately as the boy got in.

"Yeah," he said. "Um…we can stop at Taco Bell, it's on the way to the base."

Smokescreen started to go down the road. "Your Uncle Blaster and his team are coming back in twenty Earth minutes, you might convince your caregivers and your Creators to try and spend the night."

"Wouldn't Optimus oppose?" Nightfire asked.

"I highly doubt he'll turn down a young one," Smokescreen said. "Just ask when we get back."

"I will."

_(Skywarp Transition)_

Twenty-seven minutes later, Smokescreen and Nightfire finally arrived at the base. Nightfire took his bag and the food out so the Autobot could transform. There was a strange shield around the base; it wasn't strange as much as why was there one. The two made their way in through it, only to find a huge ship in front of them. "Hmm," Smokescreen looked at it, "Perceptor must have the invisibility shield on to hide it." Smokescreen picked up Nightfire and headed into the base.

All the Autobots were starting to gather, which meant they were all being debriefed on the mission now. Smokescreen set Nightfire down whom gave the food to Epps and Lennox. Optimus looked around to see if every bot including the three humans were accounted for. "Blaster, team, you may begin."

"Getting the ship was a success however there was a few…problems with getting it back," Blaster started. "The first problem was with the Seekers. They had attacked us."

Ironhide scoffed. "I'm surprised Starscream still go out in the field now."

"We were trying to make signal back here but it didn't work," Moonracer said.

"BlasterandIwereagainsttheSeekers," Blurr said.

Blaster nodded. "Apparently, Skywarp and Thundercracker have a creation." That shocked the Autobots. "They fled."

"I'm surprised that their youngling is still alive," Elita said.

Blaster sucked in some air before he vented out. "Well, we did suffer another attack, Um… Megatron is alive."

None of the bots said anything. They just looked at Blaster and his team, and it was getting to eerily for the humans, Optimus blinked. "Are you sure?"

"Yes, sir," First Aid jumped in. He felt very uncomfortable in the silence, and was now feeling worse with his Creators looking back at him. "Blaster and I were fighting against him and he had pinned Blaster down, about to kill him." First Aid noticed Jazz tensed. "I tackled Megatron and he lost his balance and he grabbed me and we fell." This time, Mirage and Ratchet tensed, Ratchet was obviously scanning him over to make sure he was truly not injured, but the look on his face looked like he wanted to kill someone. "I don't know what happened to him but I'm okay," he mostly said that towards his Creators.

"With Megatron back, it's going to cause a lot more problems now," Chromia said.

Optimus slowly nodded. He took in every word that every Autobots were saying, then he finally said, "We'll get everything set up then we will track down the Decepticons."

Lennox sighed. "Once you are all set up, I'll bring my men down." Optimus nodded. Then Lennox whirled around to Nightfire. "It is probably safer if you stayed here with them for tonight."

"I agree," Jazz and Prowl said together. Nightfire just nodded.

"Alright," Optimus sighed. "Ironhide drive Epps and Lennox back home, the rest of us will get the equipment off the ship."

The Autobots went to go do as they were told. Jazz picked up Nightfire and purred while smiling at his brother. Smokescreen watched as the family had a moment together before joining the others; he knew what he felt for the young one but he couldn't allow himself to feel that way now, or possibly ever. If he had to wait that was fine with him, right now it was more about Nightfire reuniting with his family not finding out that a bot has feelings for him.
