Deathtilupart: Thanks

Pachysam: Your welcome and you'll find out.

General Tusk: I don't know how the council would react… Some better than others.

Battle Marshal Tauros: Hmm …

Mulan 2: I haven't quite the heart to do that as well as what I have done to us.

Happyfish: -tries not to cry- my chocolate.

Count Batula: Umm one idea yes, and another I partially used before you mentioned it, and Bravirin… Well… You'll find out.

Ultra Magnus was back! As were Yuketron, Jazz, and the Jet twins. Sari used her energy skates to zoom ahead. She tackle-hugged the twins and Jazz, who returned the gesture happily. She smiled brilliantly up at Yuketron and a shy one at Ultra Magnus.

"Sari you are having the day off tomorrow, do you want to hang out, if we are having the day off?" The Jet twins asked in unison.

Sari's optics sparkled in a strange way and she whispered to the Jet twins. "I have a plan and I think you two are trustworthy enough to bring in on. You can't tell any of the elders though. Meet me in my room as soon as you can. I really think you'll like it."

A few hours later the Jet twins managed to get away. Sari had filled Steven and Meralon in on what she had planned and who she planned on pranking. They heartily agreed and they also agreed on bringing in the Jet twins in on the fun.

The twins came in, and after they were filled in, they suggested several other ideas and all five set about gathering materials needed for the fun. Everything was in place and merely needed to be implemented when they were told to recharge. Carefully stowing the goods, they did as they were bid.

Sari was surprised to see Ultra Magnus waiting in her room. "Hello Sari, I trust that you are well?"

"Yes sir, I am. How are you?" Sari asked.

"I am well Sari. You have telepathic abilities, do you not Sari?" Ultra Magnus questioned.

"Yes I do, but I don't know how long I've had it. I spoke twice mentally with Metroplex, once on purpose, and once to Fortress Maximus. That happened about… two or three days ago. I also healed him with my key." Sari answered, remembering the times that she had used that particular talent.

"You also spoke telepathically near the end of my capture." Ultra Magnus reminded her.

"That's right, I wanted to tell you something, but someone wouldn't let me." Sari grumbled sullenly. "I'm fairly sure that someone wouldn't let me tell you now.-sigh-"

Ultra Magnus noticed the way she had stated 'someone', and decided to distract her from her annoyance, and to lighten up the conversation a little. "So, what evil plots are you and your friends concocting?"

Sari blinked up innocently up at the Autobot leader, "What evil plots Ultra Magnus?"

Ultra Magnus raised and eyebrow in disbelief. "I was told of the human holiday, 'Halloween', and some of what usually happens on that night. Now, what are your evil plots?"

Sari hesitated, and then relented. "Promise you won't warn anyone?" Ultra Magnus nodded and she continued, "Well, it involves paint, spray foam, a trip wire and a couple other things. Stickers too, lots of stickers."

Ultra Magnus briefly considered inquiring further, but decided that he wanted to maintain plausible deniability, and that he would probably find out soon anyways. Besides, he liked good surprises, and it was coming tomorrow. "All right, I'll let you off with that, as I am guessing that your plan will be put into action tomorrow?"

"Yes." Sari confirmed happily, glad that he wouldn't interfere, or try to at least.

"Do you need more time to set up your… Plan?" Ultra Magnus asked curiously.

"That would be nice." Sari responded.

"Well then you, and whoever else is in on this plot, may have that time. Most bots are home, and there are few guards." Ultra Magnus informed. "Have fun Sari, I am going to recharge."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sari contacted her friends who were in on The Plan. They carefully laid the trip wire, making sure (via sari) that Metroplex would record what was to happen. Carefully disabling the remaining alarms (Metroplex had switched off his alarms in that particular room), the five got to work on the bot they had chosen as their victim. When they were finished, they left the room, avoided the trip wire, and set the rest of Stage One up. On where their victim usually sat while working, they placed a trap after setting up the door trap. They then set up a trap that would cover Bravirin in their entire supply of fake what he feared the most so that the fakes would utterly cover him. They carefully placed the slime covered ball bearings checked their sticker guns, and decided that stage one was ready.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bravirin woke up in a fabulous mood. The organic creature was in the metroplex, so he could either taunt it, or simply ignore the pest. At least she wasn't stealing Autobot secrets today, by going to one of their schools by those fools of scientists Perceptor and Wheel Jack. He looked at his clock, and realized that he was going to be late for a council meeting.

He burst through the door, only to be covered in a sticky liquid that covered him completely. Some of the substance got in his optics and he tried to wipe them off with his servos, but only got more of it on them. He was staggering around and fell unexpectedly flat on his faceplates. He tried to get up, but the floor seemed to be covered in greased ball bearings. Vainly trying to get his stabilizing servos beneath him, when he crashed through the energon cafeteria and landed heavily on the bench. He was immediately covered in organics, specifically spiders. He leapt up, trying to get them off, but the liquid only made the things stick to his servos. He managed to stagger into the council chambers and collapsed into his seat. He heard a gas escape from under him and he jumped out of his seat, and landed back on it only to jump off the thing that had hurt his backside. To Bravirin's consternation he was now stuck to the ceiling. He also noticed that his servos were the wrong color, as was the rest of him. He was a mix of neon pink, robin's egg blue and highlighter yellow. Over the top of this optic shattering coat, was a layer of iridescent sparkles and gloss. He screamed when he noticed that there were clumps of spiders and… Ball bearing as well? He couldn't see what the sticky substance was.

When Sari, Meralon, and Steven in, they doubled over in laughter, stage one had been a success! Stage two was about to commence. They drew their weapons, and Bravirin paled. "You don't understand I-" He started, but before he could finish his sentence, they fired after aiming carefully. They made an outline of the Autobot's symbol in psychedelic stickers on Bravirin very carefully and got each sticker in its intended location. Once finished, they left the council bot on the ceiling.

Sari, Steven, and Meralon met up with Jetfire and Jetstorm, who reported success in 'helping' Bravirin with his room. Jetfire and Jetstorm rescued Bravirin and escorted him to his room, after asking who he was and getting proof on that. Bravirin had been polite, and not spiteful or snappish towards the pair, as they had expected.

What Bravirin didn't know was that everything would wash off in one wash. The pranksters were not cruel. Bravirin got into his room and went into his shower. Instead of water, foam came out of it in gushes. After the foam ran out, Bravirin had to wait for the water to refill and tried to sit on his couch, only to go through it. /A hologram, I wonder whom I upset so much? / He took a shower and, to his relief, everything came off. A careful inspection of his room yielded his missing furniture that were holograms.

Sari was shocked when she saw Blackarachnia fighting viciously against several Elite Guard members, a disdainful snarl on her face. "Hey bug lady, why are you here?"

Blackarachnia whipped around and saw the orange femme and asked incredulously "Kid, is that you? How- when?"

"Long story which I don't know and part of it is my key." Sari responded, coming closer to the Decepticon. She ran a scan over the 'Con and was surprised to find something. So surprised that she blurted, "I know something that might help you."

Blackarachnia cocked her head and asked seriously because she knew that the kid was usually not lying about such things, "What is it?"

"I think I may know of a way to reverse what happened to you, but it would take time to synthesize, if I'm right…" Sari responded, and then turned and shouted to the Elite guard members (they were tangled in a couple of Blackarachnia's webs) "Hey guys! If she peacefully surrenders and frees you guys, will you take the both of us to Ultra Magnus? I think I have something that would be an invaluable help."

"Why would I surrender?" Blackarachnia asked, then got a mental plan from Sari, and then stated "If you guys promise not to attack me, I'll come peacefully, I'll even let you guys out. Deal or do you want to stay in that cocoon?"

"We don't have authority, only a Prime can make such a decision." One bot answered.

Sari sensed Sentinel nearby and informed him of what was going on. He agreed to it and contacted the three. The two techno organics were taken to Ultra Magnus and Sari outlined what she was going to try to do. He allowed her to try. She explained her plan to Perceptor and Wheel Jack and the three got down to making the serum. They had finally gotten the thing correctly, but enough for Blackarachnia would take several days to take.

Sari told Blackarachnia about the news and wandered off to find her friends… Meralon was wearing a… Pumpkin… Mask… Sari was really confused, but she didn't ask as the Jet twins swooped down on her and flew away, cackling happily.
