Jetfire and Silverbolt landed on the surface first. "CLEAR!" Jetfire said as the other's dropped onto the metallic planet's hard surface. "This is not good" Optimus said looking around at lifeless frames of transformers destroyed. Sideswipe looked around, "NITROUS!" he shouted running to an online femme. "Sideswipe?" she asked. "Yeah it's me, please hold on RATCHET!" Sideswipe shouted. The medic came running "Hey doc, how are things?" Nitrous asked. "Don't move you've got heavy spark damage" Ratchet said before looking at Sideswipe "I'm sorry" the medic said as Sideswipe "Sides?" Nitrous asked. "Yeah, my little booster?" Sideswipe asked. "I'm sorry" she smiled before the light left her optics. "Nitrous, no please wake up" Sideswipe begged, "another casualty" Jetfire said. "I'm sorry" Optimus said placing his hand on Sideswipe's shoulder.
Bumblebee and Arcee scouted another area of the landing site. "Poor Sideswipe, seeing that" Arcee said "I can't imagine what the guy's going through" Bumblebee said as he scanned the area "Hold it right there!" a voice said, Bumblebee knew the voice, "Oh, what are you going to do?" Arcee asked. "Simple, I'm going to melt your chassis down and use it as gap filler!" "Nice try; ROAD HAZARD!" "Oh, so you think you're better than me bugbot?" The voice yelled backed as a blue and Brown Autobot rose up and Bumblebee and Arcee turned around, "Why don't you tell me Roadblock?" "Sure I well Bumblebee" Roadblock said. Soon the two warriors began to laugh. "Good to see you" Roadblock said. "And can it be, surely not" "Hello Roadblock" Arcee said hugging the mech. "What are you doing here?" Bumblebee asked. "Retrieving Nitrous" Roadblock said. "Um, Roadblock, there's something you should know" Arcee said, "What is it?" Roadblock asked.
Sideswipe just stood there looking at the offlined frame of his sparkmate. "Sorry bro" Jetfire said. "Well you be alright?" Optimus asked "Yeah, I will once I shred the con who did this to her" Sideswipe said. "Another one who wants revenge" Silverbolt said. Jetfire and Ratchet had revenge motives and now Sideswipe was added to that. "Revenge is not our way" Jazz said. "Some of us have faced loses you couldn't even imagine" Ratchet said. "Ratchet, there is a time and place for this, and here is not it!" Silverbolt said. "Slag you Knight boy. You've never faced lost! We have alright!" Ratchet barked. "No your right I haven't lost a femme, or a brother, I've just lost hundreds of men good warriors with sparks of gold enegron, yes I feel the need for revenge but no I don't act upon it, Why? Because the moment one takes revenge, there no better than the one who the revenge is pointed at" Silverbolt said.
"Oh man, Nitrous" Roadblock said seeing the offline body of Nitrous "Roadblock?" Sideswipe said. "Easy mate, Damn it, she was alive when the signal went out" Roadblock said. "This is Roadblock to command, mission failed, Nitrous is offline" Roadblack said "Understood bring her back any way I want to make sure her files weren't hacked" the commander said. "Yes sir" Roadblock said. "We're going with you" Jetfire said "Okay by me, we've been waiting for you guys ever since Air Raid sent out that signal to you guys" Roadblock said. "That was Air Raid?" Silverbolt asked. "Yeah, it seemed urgent" "Air Raid, another Knight of Superion?" Ratchet asked. "My second in command" Silverbolt said as they rolled out.
Stra Knight Bridge
"Those Energy mortars will be a problem for us" Kicker said "There'll tear through our haul and straight into the engine bay" Alexis said analysing the shipyards. "We'll have to clear that space for when NEST reinforcements arrive" Rad said "So what will we do?" Coby asked. "Good question, main priority is the defence of Cybertron" Nunnally said. "Also we'll need an advantage, so I say we find the atmospheric generator and switch to an Earth like Atmosphere giving our weapons and frames an easier time on the surface" Kicker said. "But remember not to be seen so soon okay?" Rolo said "got it" they said. "Now what about Decepticon patrols?" Harriet asked entering the bridge. "With our size we should avoid them easily" Kickjer said confidence blooming, "Don't get cocky, remember this is their world not ours" Jake said "But why shouldn't we?" Coby asked. "As soon as the Atmosphere changes, they'll know we're here, and then they'll come gunning for us" Jake said. "I'll go down and change the atmosphere" Kicker volunteered. "Alright; but if you run into trouble radio us okay?" Nunnally asked, "Yes your highness" Kicker said saluting.
Surface of Cybertron
Kicker landed safely and withdrew his assault rifle. "Okay I'm down here and the shuttle is returning" Kicker said activating his HUD. "Remember the Atmospheric generator is probably guarded, so be careful" Rolo said. "Got it" Kicker acknowledge running towards the generator. "KICKER STOP!" Julia said "What is it?" "Ravage" Julia quietly said as Kicker saw the robotic jaguar sleeping in the middle of the road. "What the?" Kicker whispered. "I'm not sure, but no loud movements" Nunnally said "Roger" Kicker acknowledge creeping around the sleeping con. "Continuing on" Kicker said.
Autobot command
Optimus' team and Roadblock reached the location of the hidden Autobot Command Bunker. "I thought we were heading for the Decagon" Bumblebee said. "Negative, Decagon's gone. Megs got to it and destroyed it" Roadblock said. They transformed as two tech came out with a hover stretcher. "Put her on here, we'll do a rundown and then, she'll join the others in the matrix" one of them said. Ratchet stepped up to the techs "Do you have wounded?" he asked. "Indeed, they're pretty bad sir" the second tech said. "Understood" Ratchet said, Optimus walked into the centre flagged by Silverbolt, Jetfire Bumblebee and Ironhide.
"Optimus Prime reporting for duty" Optimus Prime saluted "At least Prime, its good your here" the lead prime said. "Where is Ultra Magnus?" Optimus asked. "He's hand was destroyed and had to be put into stasis lock" the prime said. "Understood" Optimus said. "And Elder Tridon?" he then asked. "Still ticking my son" Alpha tridon said entering the room. "Father, are you alright?" Optimus asked. "I'm fine the civilians have been evacuated to the moons" the elder Autobot said as many scienetist and medics were rushing around, "Heavy casualties" Optimus said. "Too many, and the captured are also too many to recall" Alpha Tridon said. "So this coward has returned, we don't need your help" "Sentinel" Alpha Tridon warned. "I'm just saying we don't need him or whatever team he's brought with him" Sentinel said. "Back Off Sentry, or are we going to have a nice little chat about manners" Ironhide said bringing out his cannons "Ironhide" Optimus warned. "Yes sir" Ironhide said backing off. "See total disrespect, his team." "Is an elite group trained under the best cybertronian warriors of the past including myself" An Autobot Prime said. "I'm sorry Guardian Prime" Sentinel said to the older warrior Prime.
"Don't let it happen again!" Guardian Prime said as he watched Sentinel leave. "I'm sorry about him, the elite guard were taken off guard by Megatron, now tell me of your adventures on Earth" Guardian said. Guardian Prime was a rough and tumble type warrior who was beside Optimus until he left for Earth, He was an old Transformer who had retired after Prime left only to be brought back into service when Megatron attacked Cybertron. "I heard your team was doing fine on Earth with Humans and their tech" Guardian said smiling as his friend and protégé walked with him. "Yes we are, the NEST treaty is holding up well" Optimus said. "Why didn't they send backup, the humans that is" Guardian said. "We do not want the humans harmed, therefore I requested that the emperor sends no human help to Cybertron" Optimus said. "Noble just like the days of old Optimus" Guardian said as he spotted his third student "Ironhide" "Guardian Prime sir" Ironhide saluted.
Starscream looked at the carnage the Cons were creating. Something deep down inside of him as telling to prevent it, what that voice was he didn't know, and then there were the memory recalls of him flying with a squadron. "Who am I?" he asked "You say something Starscream?" Thundercracker asked. "No nothing at all" Starscream said as he readied his cannon. "Except I've had enough of this!" he shouted blasting Thundercracker "Why did you" Skywarp started before being blasted by Starscream as well. "Where's Megatron?" he asked.
Megatron stood before the prisoner he had collected. "My dear brother's sparkmate Elita-1, how nice of you to drop in" Megatron said as he smiled. "Energon, High Grade, oil maybe?" Megatron said "Screw you Megajerk" Elita said. "So defiant! I've never seen that in a femme before" Megatron laughed. "Yeah, well first tiem for everything isn't there?" Elita asked as she spat at the Decepticon tyrant "LOCK HER UP!" the tyrant bellowed. "Where?" Onslaught asked. "The area near the atmospheric generator, they'll never find her there!" Megatron ordered.
"MEGATRON!" "Starscream what do you want?" Megatron asked only to receive an energy burst in the face from Starscream. "So, they're finally coming back to you" Megatron stated "Yes it is" Starscream said pulling out his sword. "Your brother will be excited to hear that and disappointed to find your corpse" Megatron said as he activated his mace. "DIE TYRANT!" "DIE TRAITOR!" the cons said as their weapons clashed.
"Optimus Sir!" an Autobot said coming up to the prime. "Sir, I've got bad news; Elita-1 she's been taken by the cons sir!" the Autobot said."Megatron has Elita?" Optimus said as his team looked at each other, "We'll gear up and look for her" Ironhide said. "No, she is no longer a priority!" Sentinel said. "Watch you vocal processor" Bumblebee said. "Why she's nothing but a femme" Sentinel said. "No Elita is the femme Commander and Prime's Sparkmate; if Megatron has her; he can effectively damage Optimus" Ironhide said. "What? How?" Sentinel asked. "By making him feel Elita's pain through their link" Guardian said. "No, Elita" Optimus said in despair.
Starscream was barely holding Megatron back. "So the noble traitor still fights" Megatron laughed as he saw Starscream hang on in the fight. "I'll make you regret onlining me" Starscream said as he fired an energy burst at the Decepticon Tyrant, only to have it deflected into a comm. Tower. "Nice try Starscream" Megatron said smirking. "AAHH!" Starscream shouted deploying his sword, only to have it meet with Megatron's mace with sparks flying in all directions. "You're becoming annoying!" Megatron said as he was in a stale mate. "I've had about enough of this!" the tyrant snarled as he activated his cannon and pointed it at Starscream. "Goodbye Starscream" Megatron said shooting him up into the outer reachs of Cybertron. "Now I can continue on the plan, but now I must be careful that he doesn't return" Megatron said looking to the stars.
"There's the generator, now just need to insert the oxygen canister in the atmospheric input" Kicker said jumping down to the ground and pull out his rifle and scanned the area. "Its clear, now to turn on the Air" Kicker said running to the generator's control panel.
In the cold dark embrace of space; Starscream's eyes flicked black and red. The Decepticon floated in space in pain "Help me" he rasped as he hit an Energon Cloud, soon his flickering eyes became pure blue, his maroon and grey armour became red and white, the Decepticon insignia became the Autobot insigna. "TRANSFORM!" the newly reformatted Decepticon said jetting off.
